The crowd suddenly quieted down, and then the chubby Elder took a few steps forward and said:
"I won't say any unnecessary words. The second test is about motivation, and I will briefly explain the rules. It's actually very simple. See that Stone Drum? It's made of special materials, and the test is to get it to sound. This time the test is slightly more difficult than usual because we've set up some control formations to slightly suppress your True Qi, so I hope you'll use all your strength. As long as you sound it three times, you'll pass. I wish you all good luck in advance! The test is about to begin!"
As soon as the chubby Elder finished speaking, the crowd below immediately started discussing.
"What? They actually added control formations, isn't that too harsh!"
"Oh my God, this is indeed too difficult."
"Yeah, I didn't expect them to even add formations this time, it's simply too harsh."
"..."
