After having a working path, Amon stood. He memorized the map he had drawn on the ground. The others had actually stumbled near the metal statues, but Amon asked them to keep going until they reached Wu Di. This showed that getting to the regular exit points was much easier because they had shorter paths.
Huang San was among those who stumbled near one of the metal statues during his journey. He again asked Amon if they should just use this exit point rather than insisting on reaching the wooden statue, which was further away. The victory points they received for the trial would be the same anyway.
Amon insisted they follow the original plan.
There was a reason why Amon insisted on this, a reason Amon didn't tell the others.
