Theodoric could not get back up, which was pretty much what everyone had hoped for. He was too strong, with almost limitless stamina and armor that was hard to break through. No one wanted to fight him alone. Having him eliminated now was the best outcome.
Being too strong made you an easy target.
Yuno unwound his whips from Theodoric and wanted to chase Zhao Si again, only to discover that Zhao Si had long since vanished. He truly had not expected anyone to be better at running than he was. To kill enemies with a pair of whips, he had to compensate for his defensive shortcomings, but he had no free hand for a shield, and armor that was too heavy would hamper his agility.

So he had taken a different approach and improved his ability to dodge. No matter how powerful an enemy's attack was, it meant nothing if it did not land. Thus, Yuno had considered himself the most agile contestant in the Combat Festival. He had never expected Zhao Si, who had spent the whole match lying there playing dead, to be every bit as agile as he was.
Zhao Si could not be bothered to keep tangling with Yuno. Wasting large amounts of stamina and energy on him would be unwise. Taking out Theodoric had already achieved his strategic objective. Now only four more people needed to be eliminated from the arena. Zhao Si already had a new target in mind-the Troll Warrior.
The Troll Warrior and the Warrior Jar Alexander were both enormous opponents. The two fought each other, and no one nearby interfered. No one wanted to be stepped on by a Troll, just as no one wanted to be run over by a steamroller.
