I'm tired so shut up!

*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*

Atop of barren grassland, an uncountable number of metallic bases flew from the air; slamming onto the ground with a shuddering thud. Each of these bases was equipped with a blinding sector symbol, albeit some were far more brilliant than others.

It seemed that the bases were quite close to each other, where they were separated with the rough measurement of 10 meters in every direction. However, this wasn't far at all.

Pale faces appeared one by one as they examined the remote grassland that didn't seem to end. In a base with the sector symbol 'E2', two twin girls waddled out of the front door with uncertain expressions.

In fact, their faces were filled with confusion as they looked at the familiar but unfamiliar space. It took only a few seconds before one of the twins couldn't help but ask in an incredulous voice.

"I thought we left after the first round? Why are back here?!"

Many people had similar thoughts as they gulped with fear. The true fact was that during the first round, most weren't able to defend against the worm beasts that required supernatural senses to even fight against. Those who were lucky enough to survive chose to leave without hesitation; shaking with fear.

However, now that they were shoved back into this place, it was like they were thrown into a nightmare! What was more was that when they looked into the sky they saw that it was wave 3! Although it was strange that no countdown displayed itself this time.

"We're fucked..."

The twins spoke in unison. Their legs became shaky whilst despair enveloped them and their souls. With little hope left, they decided to look at the score table for some sort of comfort, and this was due to a shocking event that happened in wave 1...

"H~hey... The gap widened!"

Their eyes widened when they saw the top 5 sectors in the sky.

' 1ST: Sector D2 2500 POINTS

2ND: Sector A2 1789 POINTS

3RD: Sector A1 1650 POINTS

4TH: Sector A3 1200 POINTS

5TH: Sector B1 1000 POINTS

.... '

Just as they were reeling in shock, a blazing blood red light shrouded the entire grasslands as a base flew through the air and landed ten meters away from them; thudding. The symbol, 'D2', above the base burned with an absolute authority that pressured every other symbol; making them flicker with uneasiness.

The twins gaped when they saw the majestic symbol that made their hearts go cold with trepidation. It was intense to the point that the air seemed to go still; a dreary silence to overtake the field as the twins and every base near them held their breaths.

*Creeeak*

A metallic racket squelched with a raspy nature as the metal door creaked open. Three figures revealed themselves as they walked out with strange expressions at the oppressive aura emanating from their base.

They were Qiu Jin, Yi Zan and the sword youth. Qiu Jin shone with an arrogant expression as he stood with pride; as if he was the reason for them being number 1.

Yi Zan had an uneasy smile when her eyes felt the many gazes aimed at them. She couldn't help but grumble at the strange nature of the person who caused this kerfuffle.

The sword youth seemed to have gained a piercing nature as he held the sword scabbard in his hand, making him seem dangerous without being scary. He sighed as he muttered towards the pouting Yi Zan with a smile.

"It seems that Su Min is tired so we'll have to deal with whatever is coming our way. Come on... It's not like we're weak!"

Radiating with a newfound confidence, he glared back at the numerous gazes focusing on him with a provoking grin. Yi Zan frowned and was about to pull him back, but it seemed that she was far too late...

"Hmph! Just a bunch of trash!"

A contemptuous snort echoed through the silent atmosphere; shattering it completely. A headstrong man who bulged with veiny muscles smiled in pride as he marched from seemingly nowhere and towards the group of three. He wore blue attire that shined with pride; etched with the symbol 'A3'.

An elegant girl in similar clothing stood behind him, yet contrary to the man's contemptuous expression she shone with anxiety and uncertainty. She would sometimes whisper in his ear, yet he didn't seem to listen.

*Poof*

A dust of fragmented dirt billowed into the air with a thump as the man stood right in front of the group; banging the ground with his shoe. The sword youth frowned as he felt an inhuman vitality coming from the man, although it was a tad plain compared to Su Min.

"Uh, may I ask why we're trash?"

Speaking with a polite tone, the sword youth inwardly cursed at his bad luck, yet he was stunned to find that the man was in a daze. He was about to ask if he was alright when the man started to sweat; trembling ever so slightly.

He, on instinct, walked towards him, but the man trembled even further and stepped back in sync. The sword youth's expression turned strange, yet before he could do anything else an aggravated yawn echoed behind him.

"Gah! Why can't I just take a quick nap? Why is it that every time I try, some goddamn thing disturbs me! Can't you see that there isn't a countdown? So why rush and cause stupid conflict for no reason?!"

The sword youth's expression paused when he heard the unexpected rant behind him, but he just sighed and walked back to the base. A youth appeared in the man's vision, walking out of the metal base whilst rubbing his eyes.

The air seemed to distort around the youth as a thick killing intent permeated around him like fog. His ordinary face didn't seem threatening at all, yet his body exuded a strange aura that made everyone's heart cringe.

It felt noble, yet they couldn't understand it at all like they weren't qualified to understand. It was beyond confusing.

"Who are you?!"

The man gulped as he stared at the youth approaching him. He could tell that something was off about him just from the strange aura exuding of off him.

The youths expressionless face shone with something inexplicable as he replied with a rough voice, carrying a strength that seemed primal.

"Su Min."

The man trembled even further when he heard it, not because he knew the name, but because he didn't! It seemed that everything pinpointed that this guy was the reason that Sector D2 had become first!

Su Min grumbled as he rubbed his eyes, looking at the man with a still, hazy gaze. The girl behind the man took a step back when she saw the gaze, trembling even more than the man.

The man seemed to make his mind up at that moment; deciding not to risk it. Putting on a smile, he said, "H-haha! Su Min, huh? I congratulate you on getting first place! Now-"

"Shut up."

Su Min's expression was emotionless as he interrupted the man. However, Su Min himself felt that after the strange transformation earlier his personality seemed to change. He was just too tired to care right now...

'If I'd known that I'd get this tired from undergoing that transformation then I would've postponed it. Mhm, it seems that my explosive strength has increased due to it though... By At least half I think.'

A thought flashed through Su Min's head when he looked at the man, and without warning, he clenched his fist. The man seemed to notice that something was wrong, but it was all pointless.

"Don't disturb me again."

Su Min lifted his fist, then with seemingly no effort, he threw it at the man in blue. The man's face grew cold when he saw how casual Su Min was, causing the pride within him to erupt like a tide.

"Don't underestimate me!"

Muscles convulsing, he prepared to throw a punch back, yet before he could even move a light wind had already flung onto his nose. Eyes trembling, he saw a clenched fist encompass his view.

The man gasped with trepidation as his body turned stiff.

"W-"

*BANG*

A ruthless punch that wielded a velocity beyond his comprehension hurled right into his face with a fixed bang; resounding with a smack. A shockwave sprung around him as the dust below his feet bounced then thrashed back onto the ground. A brutal wind formed around the punch and shoved a layer of dirt off the floor with fury.

*WOOSH*

A crazed power entered the man's head as his body seemed to become as weightless as a feather. Consciousness blurred with intense shock, a wind sprung around him and he shot through the air like a missile.

He seemed to reach a speed similar to a thrown baseball, yet before he could look around a metallic wall appeared behind him; oh so looming...

*CRASH*

"GUH!"
