All fifteen of the students didn't speak much and silently marched towards the next dome. After all, a single thought echoed in their minds at the same time.
If the dome with the Spindle Bee contained a white circle that was the mission objective of one of the teams, it means they had reached their goal. And the moment they do so, they would complete their Graduation Ceremony and vanish from the Graduation Ceremony Battlefield.
That would render the other fourteen teams helpless. After all, they needed 15 teams to enter a dome. So, by lacking a team, they would be left stranded. Besides, the allure of finishing first was great.
Probably no one had the confidence to persevere through difficult fights one after another and risk their lives. After all, they had no guarantee they would survive a fight with a Tier 3 Frenzy Beast. Even though they would be pulled out once their injuries surpass a certain level, it would mean they failed their mission.
