Watching their reactions, the High Priest couldn't help but let out a slight sigh in his heart.

The first trial of the Ice Spring is actually a test of one's physique and control over True Qi.
The moment the extreme cold hits, everyone will instinctively react immediately.
This reaction isn't really controlled by consciousness; it's entirely the body's instinctive response to the extreme cold. Even knowing there is no danger, it's impossible to forcefully refine and absorb it without adapting.

The other is having meticulous control over the body and True Qi, being able to forcibly suppress innate resistance.
