'Protect the people. Death awaits those who fail!'
Not only were the instructions for the trial given much sooner, but the instructions were also much more transparent and direct. It spared them from having to go through the uncertainty of guessing what needed to be done. They knew right away what the task for the trial was.
The thing that made Song Qingxiao uneasy was not because the instructions contained details about the task. Instead, it was the fact that the prize for completing this task was displayed with the instructions.
'Upon completing the task, you will obtain a reward of 1000 credits.'
The reward was an incredibly huge sum of credits!
When she compared it to her last trial, Song Qingxiao narrowly escaped death and had to kill two people, only to get 200 credits in the end. The clues regarding the second trial were clear, yet the reward was so generous. Song Qingxiao had a bad feeling about it.
