The participants' reactions were within the academy elder's expectations. He continued. "Anyone who wants to quit, please state your intention right now. This is your last chance."
Many participants became hesitant upon hearing this. Entering the academy was their greatest wish, but of course, it had to be on a premise they were still alive in the end.
The academy elder added more information. "When you enter that place, no one can rescue you. You will be completely isolated from the outside world. Hence, I hope all of you think carefully before making a decision."
"I quit!"
The academy elder's statement was like a huge boulder, crushing the last lingering thoughts of the hesitant participants. They didn't hesitate anymore and raised their hands, expressing the desire to quit one after another.
