The next day, Rocky and Eunice went to the entrance of the Black Abyss Cave, where the second round of the newcomer contest would be held.
At the moment, the entrance was already packed with people, as some disciples went early to prepare for the second round of the fighting. Many other disciples and masters from the school also came early to watch the contest.
"To all the participants, please enter the cave now. The second round of free-for-all fighting will begin after one hour!" the elder in charge of the contest announced loudly, urging the people to come inside.

A pained scream suddenly echoed in that section of the cave. When Eunice spared a glance, she saw the disciple wounded and covered in blood. Although the wound wasn't that deep, a stream of spiritual power had forcefully collided in his body.
"No! How dare you hurt my friend?!" Seeing that, the other disciple at the primary stage of the Spiritual Infant grew enraged and immediately rushed forward recklessly.
"Shadowless Swordsmanship!"
The sword shadow disappeared and reappeared, spearing through that disciple's chest.

In the blink of an eye, two of the three disciples had already been defeated.
