John and Mu Bingxue's team were the first to reach the Abandoned Silver Mines. Tatsuya's team had the potential to arrive before them, but Tatsuya's decision to recover his Sound Force caused their team to lose the chance.
Though the objective of the competition is to kill the beast in the Abandoned Silver Mines, that means there's still a chance that other teams could score the kill and get the reward.
"Let's rest for a few minutes, and then we will slay the beast inhabiting the Abandoned Silver Mines in the shortest time possible, so as to not give the other teams the slightest chance for a comeback," instructed John.
Mu Bingxue nodded her head in agreement and instructed her team to do the same.
Once they had rested sufficiently, John and Mu Bingxue cautiously led their respective teams towards the entrance of the Abandoned Silver Mines, remaining vigilant.
