Just at that moment—
"The third trial."
"Since ancient times, only one hundred and eight Heavenly Prides have been chosen. This trial ranks participants based on their Golden Core Grade, eliminating all those beyond the one hundred and eighth position. If the Golden Core Grade is the same, Cultivation will be used to decide who stays and who leaves."

Chen Qiu looked at the panel before him, shrouded in mist, with a strange expression. At least the previous two trials had some room for subjectivity, where, if one's strength was lacking, they could still use certain methods to ensure a higher ranking.
This trial, however,
was brutally straightforward, filtering out the top one hundred and eight based on Golden Core Grade.
Meaning those with even slightly inferior Golden Core Grades were directly disqualified from the Heavenly Pride's path, unable to even pass the initial filtering of the Secret Realm?
