After putting away the Soul Devouring Sword, Max slowly lifted his gaze and looked toward the remaining participants gathered around the platform.
At that moment, the entire battlefield had already fallen into complete silence.
Nobody spoke.
Nobody moved recklessly.
The scene of Ray's defeat still lingered vividly within everyone's minds. From the moment Ray revealed the terrifying power of the Pseudo Cosmic Path until he unleashed the horrifying Soul Devouring Sword, everyone had believed Max would eventually be forced into despair.
Yet in the end—
Ray had still been defeated completely.
Not only had Max survived the Soul Devouring Sword, he had even taken the weapon away directly before eliminating Ray afterward.
That result had shaken everyone deeply.
