"Glad to see you all have the strength to resume the second round." Kolin smiled as he spoke to the contestants gathered before him.
"Keep in mind that you can quit halfway or whenever you want. I don't mind. In fact, it would be best you do so now so that the guild can save resources."
"The heck is wrong with this old man."
Some players began to murmur.
As the organizer of this event, Kolin should be more encouraging of the contestants, in hopes that he could draw out their innate potential and ignite it with his words. However, the old fellow went ahead to do the opposite. By mocking the contestants, they would, at first, be annoyed and try to improve in order to prove him wrong but once they fail to do so, most of them would quit and the number of participants left would continuously drop with each contest.
Obviously, some began to wonder why he did so and a few of them even believed it was exactly as Kolin had explained; to save resources.
