The moment the broadcast went out, the whole world exploded. Everyone was in an uproar!
Until then, they had only guessed that everyone was dead. But when the Organizing Committee finally made its announcement, it confirmed that every competitor from the more than one hundred countries that had entered the Land of Death really had perished!
Not a single one remained!
Even Jellang, the Peak Grandmaster from Great Eagle Country, was dead!
This was going to trigger a massive earthquake across the world! A beast tide!
Those who couldn't get international flight tickets or boat tickets all declared that they'd go on foot if they had to!
"Right! Even if we have to walk, we're going!"
"Demonic beasts are terrifying! They eat people!"
"This is too scary. I can't even sleep peacefully. At least once we get there, we'll be able to get a good night's sleep!"
They weren't just talking. They were taking action, packing up their cash and valuables, grabbing a world map, and setting out with their families by car or bus.
No, they couldn't take the high-speed trains anymore. Animal tides and beast tides had broken out. The smaller countries in particular, with their few martial artists and no way to suppress the beast tides, had seen their transportation systems grind to a halt.
Once transportation came to a standstill and law and order in the cities collapsed, arson, looting, and robbery followed. Everyone was giving in to their worst impulses!
Aside from a few superpowers with enough strength to suppress the chaos, and the small countries whose competitors hadn't entered the Land of Death, every other country had descended into utter chaos.
Flames shot into the sky. Car horns blared shrilly. Glass shattered. Children wailed in fright, and more.
