Ma Gongzuo's voice turned completely low, "Moreover, due to various reasons, we cannot adopt a simulated combat format this time. What you will be doing is likely to be a real battle involving life and death!"

For martial arts students who are still halfway to the ivory tower, even the most outstanding geniuses couldn't help but become serious at this moment.

life and death!

This is something no one can take lightly.

"Moreover, this time, there will be no referees or spectators... In other words, when you are on the battlefield in the Nine Heavens, there will be no more on-site rescue. All judgments and choices will depend on yourselves!"

Upon hearing Ma Gongzuo's words, if the crowd had only been somewhat somber before, now many people's faces showed visibly panic.

Even before sinking, many of Jiang Zhongjun's classmates noticed his disarray.

No on-site rescue!

This was something no one had anticipated.

Even though the Nine Heavens Cup is a real battle, there's no need to mention the Mountain and Sea referee right there, and there are also many powerful figures watching from the surrounding audience seats, which minimizes the possibility of accidents.

But... the battle for the Nine Heavens is clearly completely different.

By this point, everyone could guess that the battlefield was most likely not where they were at this moment.

In other words, they will fight and kill each other in an unknown space where there is no guardian at all.

The cruelty has reached a new level.

"Of course, in order to reduce unnecessary casualties, there are still basic protective measures in place."

Ma Gongzuo then said, "Each of you will be equipped with a unique positioning device. At the same time, there will be a button on this device. When you feel that you can no longer survive on the Nine Heavens Battlefield, or when you want to give up, you can press this button."

"This device is connected to the teleportation array of the Nine Heavens Battlefield and will take you away from the battlefield as soon as possible."

"Of course, if you leave in this way, it means you will be eliminated early, and the Nine Heavens Tokens on your bodies will also disappear."

call!

The sound of people letting out a sigh of relief echoed throughout the square.

Many people looked better.

At least, there are still ways to save one's life.

But not everyone's complexion is improving.

There are still quite a few people whose fear has not diminished in the slightest.

Ma Gongzuo's original words are exceptionally clear.

Reducing casualties... does not mean there are no casualties.

Even with powerful figures present, absolute death cannot be avoided. For example, in the Nine Heavens Cup, Shen Qian killed Wang Shuo with a single strike, and even the most powerful top-tier Mountain and Sea experts could not save his life.

Not to mention it's just a time-delay device that still needs time to activate.

Surprisingly, none of the three powerful figures standing in mid-air offered any words of comfort, even though they had sensed an unusual emotion spreading across the scene.

After a long silence, Wu Wei finally spoke softly, "You still have one more chance to choose."

"Now, those who want to leave, please turn around and staff will escort you out."

Dead silence.

After Wu Wei finished speaking, there was a deathly silence.

For a moment, it seemed that no one made a move.

Shen Qian sighed inwardly.

This is clearly just an illusion.

As a martial artist, one may not be able to be fearless of death, but one will certainly not lack the courage to face difficulties.

Especially since this is not a time of peace.

Wu Wei also said that you only need to turn around in place, which means you don't have to face all kinds of stares and won't have such a big psychological burden.

Shen Qian couldn't tell whether Wu Wei was trying to save face for everyone, or... just wanted to use this to break down the last line of defense for those who were already hesitant.

The sound of clothes rustling filled the air, and sure enough, someone couldn't resist any longer.

A young man from an unknown university turned around tremblingly, and in the "perspective" of the sinking figure, a tear rolled down his cheek.

This was happening in front of hundreds of millions of people!

Who wants to be a coward?

Unfortunately, even though he was going through immense psychological torment, he eventually turned away.

It's like a contagious disease; once the first one appears, a second quickly follows, and then the hundredth...

Splash!

The commotion grew so loud that even someone without eyes could easily notice it.

"Let's see who dares to turn around! Our Overlord Military Force has no useless cowards!"

An angry shout rang out.

Shen Qian glanced at the burly man leading the Batian Military Team, then quickly shook his head and looked away.

it's useless.

Even though Long Yi's loud shout seemed to stop many people, it only made them hesitate for a moment.

In an instant, about a hundred people in the Batian Military Force turned around.

Not to mention Batian Military Martial Arts, even among Jiangzhong Military Martial Arts, which considered itself to be of extremely high quality in the competition, twenty or thirty people quietly turned around at this moment.

However, Qu Bai and Shen Qian remained silent, as if by unspoken agreement.

After a while, when all the commotion finally stopped, Wu Wei silently waved his hand, and staff members came out to lead those who had chosen to leave back the way they came.

Once order was restored in the square, Ma Gongzuo suddenly waved his hand, and an electronic screen appeared in mid-air.

On the enormous screen, which is fifty meters in diameter, the number “” that was originally centered changed to “” as the screen flashed.

Clearly, the number of people who have just withdrawn has exceeded 40,000.
