Amidst a chorus of questions, finally, the system's voice rang out.
[The three-hour period has elapsed, team formation is now closed. A total of seventeen participants failed to join a team and will be eliminated by the system.]
[There are a total of eleven thousand one hundred and fifty teams. Next, the system will randomly teleport trialist teams to the combat arena inside the rulers' palace. Please be prepared!]
…
Accompanied by screams, those trialists who failed to form teams in time were directly eliminated by the system.
Their bodies rapidly became transparent and vanished from the chessboard world.
At the same time, exclamations of surprise were heard from other trialists.
They were shocked to find themselves enveloped in a powerful force and then teleported away.
When the feeling of weightlessness subsided and their feet finally touched the ground, they were amazed to find themselves in a magnificent palace.
