Say it again, standing up?
Hearing Tendo's words, everyone subconsciously looked at Mi Yao, who was lying on the ground, unconscious.
For a mont, no one knew what to say.
The Avengers Alliance clearly had the advantage in numbers.
Yet, Tendo's flash-like speed and his casual single strike, were like a bucket of cold water dousing the 'courage' in everyone's hearts.
And whether it was good luck, or a result of Tendo's deliberate action.
Although Mi Yao was unconscious, he was not eliminated from the ga; he had rely lost his own Star Tear.
Seeing the Avengers Alliance making no move after a long silence, Tendo turned to the crowd, the smile on his face unchanged, but his tone full of arrogance.
"Co on, either eliminate , or be eliminated by ."
He stood opposite the crowd, his black trench coat fluttering in the wind, and the surrounding vector field giving off a faint luster.
Tendo was only one person, but at this mont, he was like an insurmountable mountain, making everyone gasp for breath.
After an unknown amount of ti, soone in the crowd suddenly shouted, "What are you afraid of! He's just one person! Attack together!"
Hearing this, others seed to have their courage ignited, and they all unleashed their full power.
Pale blue ice crystals, red flas, black shadows, silver tal torrents—
The attacks of over a hundred people intertwined, like an overwhelming 'Star Energy Storm,' sweeping toward Tendo.
Tendo, at the very center of the attack, saw this scene but showed no panic.
He raised his hand, and the invisible vector field expanded instantly in a ripple, covering all the Star Energy attacks.
Buzz!
Under the influence of the vector field, these Star Energy attacks seed to have been paused, all suspended in mid-air, completely motionless, which was extrely eerie.
"Th-This... How is this possible?!"
So people seeing Tendo strike for the first ti, watching the horrifying scene, imdiately cried out in shock, their faces filled with disbelief.
Without giving them much ti to react, Tendo lightly flicked his fingertip.
The next second, the paused attacks suddenly reversed direction, like a pack of out-of-control beasts, flying back towards the Alliance mbers!
"Ah!!!"
Screams rose and fell one after another. So in the Avengers Alliance had their shields pierced by the ice crystals they summoned, so had their clothes scorched by their own flas, and others were knocked flying by the residual shockwaves of their own Star Energy weapons, crashing heavily onto the ground.
In just this one strike, more than twenty people were eliminated, their competition wristbands lighting up with the red glow of 'elimination' one after another.
Many others were also injured.
At this mont, the ani's cara quietly shifted to the back of the Avengers Alliance.
It showed that Chen Kong had retreated behind everyone at so unknown point.
It turned out that the person who suddenly shouted for everyone to charge together was none other than him.
Knowing this, the dinsional audience on Site 13 couldn't hold back.
'Good heavens! Kong is practicing 'killing with a borrowed knife,' telling others to charge while he hides in the back!'
'The classic move—the Protagonist frowns, silently retreats behind the crowd.'
'Honestly, Tendo's stats are getting more and more monstrous. Will he still have a chance to show off his operational skills later?'
'Poor Mi Yao, led the way for ages, then went down in one second?'
Amidst the scrolling comnts, due to Tendo's dominating move, the Avengers Alliance imdiately fell into a brief silence.
They all stopped in their tracks, looking at Tendo with pale faces, no one daring to step forward easily.
Seeing this, Tendo simply decided to play a new ga with them.
He retracted the vector field and looked up at the ground beneath his feet.
Boom!
To everyone's terrified expressions, the ground beneath their feet suddenly began to shake violently.
Starting from Tendo's center, the ground within a one-kiloter radius slowly began to rise. Luminescent grass, rocks, and even the wristbands of the recently eliminated contestants, floated up with the ground, quickly rising to a hundred ters in the sky!
Soone sprawled on the edge of the floating grass ground, looking down.
The forrly expansive ground already had many areas reduced to tiny black dots, and a wave of dizziness washed over them.
Tendo and Caroline stood under a luminescent tree in the center of the floating island. He leaned against the tree trunk, looking at the panic-stricken crowd below, his tone slightly playful.
"Given your current strength, I've decided to change the way we play. Fifty people. As long as fifty people are left among you in the end, I will give you the remaining Star Tears."
"However..."
Tendo turned to Caroline, who nodded knowingly, then took out a crystal hourglass from her pocket and inverted it on the ground.
Golden fine sand slowly flowed down, shimring in the sunlight.
Seeing that Caroline had finished the setup, Tendo spoke again.
"...You only have ten minutes. After ten minutes, this floating island will completely collapse."
"What?!"
Hearing Tendo's words, the crowd instantly erupted in chaos.
Tendo was clearly forcing them to kill each other.
"Quiet."
Tendo's voice rang out again, carrying an unquestionable sense of pressure, silencing the uproar of the crowd.
He looked down at everyone and said plainly, "Either obey the rules and strive for a chance to advance, or jump down now and be imdiately eliminated."
At his words, the crowd instantly fell silent.
Everyone understood that Tendo was not joking. If he had the ability to turn a one-kiloter area of ground into a floating island, he certainly had the ability to eliminate all of them after ten minutes.
Resist?
The recent 'Star Energy Storm' had already demonstrated the absurdity of that choice.
Escape?
Jumping from a hundred ters high was simply impossible for most Star Masters without special abilities.
All at once, everyone's expressions turned ugly, especially those who originally held the Star Tears.
They were initially just required to hold on until the end of the assessnt to pass, but now they were forced into a corner by Tendo.
Either eliminate others, or be eliminated by others. There was no third option.
Watching the commotion in the crowd, a malicious smile curved Tendo's lips.
To him, this qualification match was never an 'assessnt,' but an interesting 'observation ga.'
To see what expressions these people would show and what choices they would make in order to survive.
After all, for so people, failure to pass was not necessarily a bad thing; it could even be a good thing.
It should be known that the past Starry Sky Ladder Ranking Matches have always had a 'death quota.'
Once they passed the assessnt, the subsequent journey up the ladder would be a test of blood and fire.
Only true geniuses, and a few lucky individuals, would have the chance to stand out from it and be tempered in body and soul... to transform into true powerhouses.
Therefore, rather than letting so clueless unfortunate souls die on that brutal battlefield.
It might be better to make them stop here.
Moreover, Tendo's actions were not entirely for the sake of re 'fun.'
He was specifically putting on a spectacular show for certain 'interested parties' to watch.
