Of course, for some people, the selection within this temple is basically just a formality. For instance, this was the case with Ling Menglu in the Priests Temple.
In the battle between priests, it's more about endurance as the offensive ability of priests isn't praiseworthy. The two competitors Ling Menglu faced in the first two rounds were students from the Main Temple Academy, unaware of her formidable strength. They struggled to resist, only to be quickly defeated by the Divine Hammer. In the third round, Ling Menglu's opponent was a second-year priest student from the Spirit Furnace Academy. Seeing that he drew against the Goddess herself, he immediately conceded.
