Recap of events in the donghua’s previous episode
That The Demon Hunter, Episode 3 trailer comes after, you will remember, protagonist Meng Chuan was illegally eliminated from the Yuanchu Mountain Trial in Episode 2, causing him to have to enter The Abyss in an attempt to become the 500th person selected for the competition.
Of course, as things always seem to be difficult for Meng Chuan, that trial was crazy with competitors being forced to face a Mantis Demon King that quickly killed many of The Abyss competitors in seconds.
It was then left to Meng Chuan, in collaboration with another competitor and in an absolutely spectacular fight, to destroy the Demon King.

But, as always seems to be Meng Chuan’s luck, it was the mystery competitor (who is soon revealed to be Ji Yuan Tong) who grabbed the demon core ie: the key to The Abyss door, and walked out of The Abyss leaving Meng Chuan behind.
Episode 2 of The Demon Hunter then ends with Meng Chuan becoming incredibly angry at all the obstacles that have been hurled in his way by other competitors.
And so, after leveling up to Stage 5, Qi Alignment, he breaks through door in order to walk out of The Abyss and take his place in the Yuanchu Mountain Trial.
