"But don't worry, as long as the King of Stars hasn't appeared, you can escape at any time. Once the King of Stars takes his throne, you won't be able to escape, even I, the Lion King, have to obey him. In short, before the King of Stars appears, the hall behind each corridor is safe, and from the first corridor to the fifth, you can't kill each other, whoever does will die! From the sixth corridor onwards, you can kill as much as you like, the more the better!"

"Also, once you enter this door, you can't use any treasures that don't belong to your own power. Of course, ordinary weapons or ink and brush can be used. If it's something given to you by your elders, you can't use it at all! Unless, of course, your elders are stronger than the Demon Ancestor, then ignore what I said."

The stone lion paused for a moment, and no one dared to speak up. It nodded in satisfaction.

"I will give you a piece of ice stone. After using it, you will return here. However, because the Demon Ancestor has gone somewhere to enjoy himself, the power of these ice stones is not as great as before. Remember, after each corridor, you will receive the power of the stars that best fits you! Alright, go in, remember to act according to your abilities, if you're not strong enough, you might die. Ah, I'm just too kind!"
