Chapter 2157: Nearing the End of the Challenge 

Later that day, the maze event unfolded, with several couples giving up due to injuries sustained in fights with other competitors or traps along the way.

The Continental Tournament was a strategy event. One had to know how to give up certain "points" in order not to lose the opportunity to gain more victories throughout the competition.

Because of this, some competitors would simply prefer to give up on a difficult test after a few defeats in order to preserve themselves for later competitions.

Thus, two hours into the event, only 56 of the original 100 duos remained in the maze, trying to find their way to the end.

During this time, three groups had reached one of the 50 starting points of the maze event and were eliminated for leaving the maze in the wrong place.
