James had passed the trial.
The trials matched the challenger’s cultivation rank and Soul Power. The higher one’s cultivation rank, the tougher the trials.
Ever since the Holy Master of Nothingness created the trials, no one had ever perfectly passed the past. Not even the woman in the white dress.
Therefore, she knew that her Soul Power would be inferior to James’ after she suppressed her cultivation rank.
She chose to admit defeat and allow James past her checkpoint.
James was relieved.
