Chapter 580 Not bad, right?

Chapter 580  Not bad, right?

Kyle glanced back at the speechless old man and began to levitate, gliding his way towards the many floating platforms. He briefly stopped to check the lit-up numbers above the platforms, looking for stage number 199. Among the people floating around him, he spotted the stage he was looking for and floated towards it before landing gracefully on one side.

A middle-aged elf and a young dwarf with dark short hair were already on the stage, waiting with the illusionary figure for the other eight members to join them. When Kyle landed on the stage, they scrutinized him with cautious eyes. Upon realizing that unlike them, who were at the transcendent rank, he was only at the divine rank, they silently decided to eliminate him as soon as the battle commenced.

Kyle started adjusting the sleeves of his white shirt as he observed the gathering individuals before him. One... two... three... he counted in his mind until the last person who would participate in the battle on his stage arrived. The illusionary figure then directed them to get ready for the impending fight.

Eventually, above stage 199, three elves, two dwarfs, two demi-humans, one human, one woman from the dark race, and one demon stood facing each other, displaying a range of emotions. The demon and the woman from the dark race united in one corner with smiles, ready to kill all others on the stage together, with the intention of later facing off against each other to determine the ultimate victor.

As the illusionary figure started floating above the stage to begin the battle, all the fighters tightly gripped various weapons. It was odd when the silver-haired man in the pure white shirt remained empty-handed, casually rolling up his sleeves.

The only dwarven woman on the stage looked at Kyle and shook her head with a sympathetic sigh. Just like everyone else, she could sense that the silver-haired man was the weakest of the group. Now, seeing him without a weapon, she was certain he was a hand-to-hand fighter. She was sure everyone would target the human first.

However, she flinched when the human in white looked at her with a pair of cold eyes after sensing her sympathetic gaze on him. She quickly averted her eyes but was surprised by her own reaction.

Kyle glanced at the illusionary figure, prepared to start the fight, and curled his fingers into fists. The people around him scoffed at his arrogance when he spoke with a passive expression.

"Okay, I'm ready to eliminate the unnecessary people, except for the two from the dark side that I plan to kill. Let's begin the battle without any further delay."

The demon on the stage looked him up and down and started laughing. Then, he gazed at the woman from the dark race next to him with a sinister smirk.

"Kill the divine-rank human first. He's really getting on my nerves."

The woman flapped her bat-like wings and shot him a similar smirk.

"Leave him to me."

The duo had just finished speaking when the illusionary figure raised his hand, then waved it downward and shouted loudly.

"Commence the battle!"

The illusionary figure's words hadn't even faded in the air when a deafening boom echoed across the stage. The air crackled with energy as Kyle zoomed at full speed. He even triggered his swift steps skill to boost his already maddening speed. His eyes gleamed as he grabbed the collar of the nearest person and flung them off the stage. The elf, whose feet were suddenly lifted off the stage, hadn't even reacted yet, and Kyle had already delivered a swift kick to another person next to him before moving on to his next target.

He intentionally paused for a split second in front of the dwarven woman who had looked at him sympathetically to reveal the face of the person about to eliminate her. Her eyes widened at the familiar pair of eyes that appeared before her, but before she could react, his hand had seized her shoulder to flung her off the stage.

Kyle paused at the other end of the stage and rubbed his wrist as the three elves, two dwarfs, and two demi-humans were all flung outside the stage. The woman from the dark race, who had lunged towards his previous position, stopped as her hands grasped only emptiness.

She blinked, and her ears twitched when a few startled shouts echoed behind her. She slowly... very slowly glanced back, but her eyes widened because the only people she could see standing above the stage were the demon who was rooted in his position, utterly shocked, and the back of the human clad in the pure white shirt.

The demon and the woman both flinched, and their expressions turned pale when the human pivoted to fix his gaze upon them.

"Eliminating seven people in three seconds... Not bad, right?"

The individuals who got eliminated in seconds all floated around the stage, their faces contorted in anger. They were itching to get back on the stage, but a barrier rose up to enclose the stage. The illusionary figure cast a glance their way to convey that they were eliminated the instant they stepped beyond the stage's boundary. They were ready to object because how could they be eliminated when they hadn't even started fighting... but they all fell silent when Kyle shot them a cold look.

The demon snapped out of his shock and, without caring about the stunned woman from the dark race, desperately shouted towards the illusionary figure.

"Wait!! I admit-!"

However, before he could finish his words, an extremely cold hand covered his mouth to silence him and then forcefully slammed his body to the ground.

The demon's eyes turned red in pain, and the eliminated participants watching from outside the stage gasped and instinctively moved back in the air because they were unable to follow the human's speed with their eyes! Moreover, after attacking the demon, he had already seized the woman from the dark race by the neck!
