A few soldiers put on their diving suits and flipped off the rubber dinghy. The three 'water ghosts' were less than two nautical miles away from them. They quietly floated to the surface of the sea and noted down the names of the soldiers who went down first.
Being eliminated during the first round did not mean that they were allowed to pack their things and return to the original units. The Demon King's selection was never done according to the normal procedure. It had always been the Demon King's style to find potential candidates from the eliminated soldiers.
These soldiers who came from various troops had been screened in their original troops. Their individual comprehensive ability was considered quite good. The likely reason they got eliminated in the first round could be that they had not adapted to the training method and thus became a burden.
The only way to make a final judgment was to observe their ability to respond, survive, and react quickly.
