With the two of them working together, it shouldn't be too difficult to pass the second round. As he continued forward, Xiao Shi discovered a huge pavilion in the forest in front of him. This pavilion happened to be at the intersection of the three paths. It was obvious that he wanted them to gather here and wait.
The people on the other two paths had yet to arrive. Xiao Shi waited in the pavilion with a group of guards. At the left and right ends of the pavilion, which was the entrance that connected to the other two official roads, there was a barrier. The existence of this barrier was clearly to prevent those who cleared it first from entering the checkpoints on the other two sides.
Help was forbidden. So he could only wait here. Other than that, there was also a barrier that led to the third checkpoint. This meant that before the people from the other two sides arrived, Xiao Shi would not be able to enter the third round.
