The most important line of chapter nine in Divergent by Veronica Roth is on page 99. It says, "'Stop!' wails Christina as Molly pulls her foot back to kick again. She holds out a hand. 'Stop! I'm done.'" (Roth 99). This happens when Christina is very injured from fighting Molly and can't handle fighting anymore. This line is important because after she says this, Eric makes her hang from the chasm for five minutes to prove she is not a coward. This task is not only extremely difficult for Christina, but for Tris too, because she is forced to watch her only friend in Dauntless suffer and come close to dying. Luckily, Christina survives the five minutes, but this shows the group that giving in to pain is not an option; you have to keep fighting.
