Since entering the secret realm, Qi Tian had encountered hundreds of talented youths opting for tribulation, a considerably large number. However, due to Cheng Jianli, Sun Datong, and Xiu Zhengyu’s roles, he hadn’t delved deeply into analyzing the reasons behind their chosen timing for undergoing tribulation.

Now, having received Cheng Jianli’s analysis, Qi Tian suddenly thought of a possibility he had long overlooked. A portion of the talented youths chose to undergo tribulation before the end of the Holy Land competition not for self-preservation, but with a strong purpose. They wanted to ascend to the Nascent Soul Master stage ahead of everyone else, thus possessing strength surpassing others. Their actions were not forced by circumstances; rather, they chose this route.

Within the secret realm, there must be one or several places that required powerful individuals to qualify for entry. Ordinary talented youths simply lacked the capability to gain access.

Should this possibility hold, it would explain why someone like Dou Xiaojun chose to undergo tribulation at this time. Although not a disciple of the Holy Land, he was deeply tied to it. Even if he had not undergone tribulation in the secret realm, he would still have his chances. However, his choice to undergo tribulation here meant that there were temptations within the Holy Land too irresistible to forsake better foundational opportunities in the Nascent Soul Stage. Dou Xiaojun’s decisive action was naturally because he knew what and where he wanted something inside the Holy Land, and he was exceedingly familiar with the Holy Land’s geographical environment, direction, and orientation.
