It would be an intense bloodbath. No one knew what would happen in the process, hence why none of them could keep their internal composure. Even Fane was not as calm as he looked.
At that moment, he thought of what Rudy said to him. If it was one-on-one combat, he would not be afraid at all. However, he would need to face more than one opponent if he stumbled upon any ' alliances' during the gambit.
Knowing that he would face difficulty in facing off against several prodigies at one go, Fane knew he would have to make proper plans upon entering. He could not let himself get into any situations like that.
Time slowly ticked away. All of the warriors in the viewing area looked at them expectantly. There were various emotions written on their faces, putting some pressure on the 10 participants.
With the sound of the mechanisms activating, the radiant glow on the transfer array brightened and enveloped everyone. When they lost the feeling of solid ground beneath their feet, the transfer officially started.
Space rapidly distorted as the 10 of them were sent somewhere far away. After 15 minutes, Fane suddenly felt a flash in his eyes. He seemed to be flung away.
When he opened his eyes again, he was shocked to see that he was in the air with nothing beneath him, causing him to panic for a moment. He was free-falling!
Thankfully, Fane reacted quickly enough. As he was 9 meters away from the ground, he activated his true energy and moved himself, landing firmly on the ground.
He noticed that he was in a desolate wasteland. His feet were on the dried-up ground. There was an intense sun above him, and heat waves struck Fane's body.
As a warrior, this did not affect Fane that much, but it was enough to disconcert him. He sighed as he looked around himself, observing his surroundings. In the desolate wasteland, he saw nothing but himself. He could not even see any patches of grass.
