[The Holy Grail has been held for 30 consecutive minutes]
As the voice of Fire Thief rang out, every surviving team on the island stopped in their tracks.
"The Holy Grail... it never changed hands even once."
Almost everyone had assumed that under such fierce competition, the Holy Grail would change hands at least a few times. But that never happened.
The team that first found the Holy Grail held on to it until the very end.
All the teams that hadn't joined the fray or participated in the competition now had the same thought: 'Is that team really that strong? Not a single team could defeat them and take the Holy Grail?'
Still, it wasn't really their concern. The only real effect on them was that the challenge's duration had been drastically reduced.
The challenge, originally scheduled for 24 hours, was now over in less than 10.
[The team with ownership of the Holy Grail has been confirmed. The first Ascender Challenge is now over.]
