Next Morning...
The sun was rising high, casting a warm glow over the barren land. All 370 contestants were gathered in a desolate area covered in rough, rock-hard soil, with several huge rocks scattered around.
The morning air was crisp, and Seojun could tell that everyone had been transported here in their sleep.
He scanned the group and realized something surprising. The count was the same as yesterday, meaning no one had been eliminated.
Standing on a knee-high rock, Andrew stretched and exclaimed, "Dang, mages are so amazing! Look, we're all teleported to this place while we were sleeping!"
Lila gave him a deadpan look, rolling her eyes as she ran a hand through her hair. "Idiot. Didn't the mages teleport us to that skyland forest before?"
"Oh right!" Andrew chuckled as he jumped down from the rock. "I just remembered. Hehehe."
Lila shook her head with an annoyed tsk. "They even took our familiars," she said, clearly irritated.
