The moment he spoke, the faces of many contestants fell.
'Ten minutes?'
'Is the schedule really that tight?'
'I thought we'd wait until tomorrow!'
'We just got out of a fight, and now we have to start again right away!'
This made many people a little uneasy.
Especially since the rules of the second round were unknown.
Up in the air, Pierce ignored everyone's reactions and continued to speak.
His next words were like a bombshell, exploding in everyone's minds.
"To speed up the competition process and screen out the true elites."
"The rules for the second round will be even more brutal!"
Pierce held up four fingers, his eyes cold:
"In this round, four teams will be directly eliminated!"
"Only the four winning teams will qualify to enter the third round: the Battle of Cornered Beasts!"
BOOM—!
The entire audience was in an uproar.
Even the team leaders from various countries, watching from the rest areas, could no longer remain seated.
