At the point marked X, the distance to the line was exactly 1 meter.
The man who caught the flying ball had been pushed more than 1 meter from his original position.
"This can't be happening… so suddenly…"
The smell of gunpowder rose faintly from the ground.
"Next!"
Although the student signaled for him to leave, the man shouted back, shaking his head.
"Give me another chance! Something went wrong!"
He picked up the fallen ball from the ground and shouted again, but the student shook their head.
"Please go down! There are other examinees waiting behind you!"
Mockery poured from the audience towards him.
"What are you doing? Hurry up and go down!"
"You were so confident before."
"With that physique, being pushed back so much… hilarious."
"Is it water balloons instead of muscles?"
"I understand why he was expelled."
The man's face darkened.
He had trusted his strength too much.
