"Congratulations to those of you who have survived the first trial." The Dragon God's voice rippled throughout the Divine Dragon Sanctuary.
"You may choose to continue to the second trial or give up now. Those of you who will continue, keep the token in your grasp. Otherwise, crush it. You have an hour to decide."
Once the Dragon God's voice faded, everyone began mumbling to each other.
"He said that most of us won't even be able to refine a single drop of blood, correct? Do you think he's serious, or is he trying to scare us into forfeiting?"
"Knowing the Dragon God, it could go both ways. It's extremely risky, no doubt. However, the benefit of this trial is worth the risk, so I am going to risk it."
"Many of us have risked our lives for much less. This is a no-brainer for me."
Most of the participants shared similar sentiments.
