"Even though your reasons for failure are indeed valid, you will still be punished for the spilled blood of our deceased sisters."

Rosa looked at her thoughtfully: "You should've received the Juntai punishment, leaving you numb for another 8 months. But now isn't the time for this.

So don't disappoint us!"
Number 5 clenched her fists in determination: "Yes, elders. This one will not."
With that, Number 5 left the place with fire burning in her eyes.
