Indeed, Sterl had used only purple-quality skills in this round, yet he almost wiped out all the third-ss yers.


    After all, with all his attributes fully activated, he could even wrestle with near-max-level second-ss bosses like the Shadow of Hatred. Normal third-ss yers, unless they had S-level sses and additional attribute-boosting skills or talents, could never achieve such stats!


    Given the Earth''s humans were already resource-poor, the highest-tier ss Hearts among the family heads and guild leaders present were only B-level, far from sufficient!


    So, with the mental attribute boost and Stardust Enhancement, the third-ss yers, despite being family heads with numerous life-saving items, were instantly vaporized!


    Of course, these third-ss family heads and guild leaders felt incredibly aggrieved, as they hadn''t even been able to use their full strength to save themselves...


    They were just turned to ashes!


    The only exception...


    What made Sterl frown slightly was that one third-ss yer had survived.


    That yer was Astrid, the head of theIronheart family.


    She was in a dire state, but as a renowned third-ss yer from Earth, Astrid was equipped with a rare amulet that could shield her from a fatal blow.


    Earlier, the mes from Celestial Stars had burned away all of Astrid''s armor and protective skills, and the impact had forced her to use her life-saving amulet.


    But, the continuous burning from Celestial Stars and the stardust sshes triggered by the deaths of other family heads and guild leaders left the Ironheart familyleader in a wretched condition!


    Astrid stood there, dazed.


    Thest time she had been this severely injured was before her family was established.


    Back then, she was just an ordinary third-ss yer who had encountered a legendary opponent. A casual strike from the enemy had instilled immense fear in her!


    Facing the attack from David''s faction this time, she felt the same fear.


    Yes, even now Astrid didn''t believe that the Celestial Stars had been cast by David. She thought someone from his faction had intervened!


    After all, he was just a second-ss yer. Could he really deal such high damage??


    However, Sterl also frowned slightly at this moment. His originally perfect n to show off by annihting all opponents with two Celestial Stars...


    Had left a survivor?


    Sterl discreetly pointed a Star Point Finger.


    Before Astrid could react, a bloody hole appeared in her body, and she died instantly!


    Only then was Sterl satisfied. As long as hefollow-up attack was fast enough, all opponents were effectively one-shot!


    He stood there, hands behind his back, striking a pose as a master.


    Unfortunately, very few were left to appreciate this scene.


    Even those who weren''t in the attack range were in a dazed state, stunned by the terrifying power of Celestial Stars! They were dizzy, their figures swaying.


    It took a long while before the second-ss yers from various bases below couldprehend what had happened. They looked at the ground, now covered in dissipating dust and two massive craters, creating an extremely chaotic scene!


    As for the yers hit by the attack, even the family heads and guild leaders, there wasn''t a single body left behind.


    But everyone knew...


    They were dead!


    Because the ground was littered with nearly a hundred blood-red glowing loot orbs.


    This indicated that over a hundred yers had died in a "PK" (yer kill).


    Sterl stood quietly, gazing ahead.


    He observed the second-ss yers from various bases initially wearing extremely bewildered expressions, seemingly unable to ept the reality.


    Then, confusion turned into shock, followed by fear, panic, unease, and reverence.


    Their emotions esctedyer byyer!!


    The yers below were utterly bbergasted!


    "What just happened? What went down here??"


    "All those third-ss powerhouses were killed in an instant??"


    "Who did it? Was it that David guy? Doesn''t seem like it, but then again…"


    The yers were inplete disarray, struggling to ept the reality, but the loot orbs on the ground dered it loud and clear—the third-ss yers were dead.


    Even more difficult for them to ept was the fact that the seemingly controlled David had summoned two Celestial Stars, obliterating everything.


    Unlike Astrid before her death, these yers immediately assumed that David must have been the one to act.


    Mainly because if David hadn''t done it, why would he be striking such a pose? Looking all triumphant after casting a massive spell!?


    At this moment, Sterl moved, turning to look at the second-ss yers from various bases.


    Instantly, they all froze, not daring to move a muscle, their eyes filled with terror!


    "We''re screwed!"


    "Are we going to die here??"


    "This… feels like there''s no way to escape."


    ...


    The second-ss yers from various bases were quite self-aware. The two Celestial Stars had a huge range and, although there was a warning, they fell incredibly fast. Even those third-ss big shots couldn''t escape.


    What could they possibly do??


    Moreover, seeing how rxed David looked, he could probably summon another Celestial Stars just as easily. Running now would be tantamount to waiting for death!


    But then they remembered how they had treated David''s subordinates earlier,pletely intent on skinning them alive and eating their flesh!


    Instantly, their hearts turned cold!


    The yers then looked at Sterl''s subordinates, realizing why they had been so defiant earlier—because they had such a powerful trump card...


    If it were them, theywouldn''t ept any judgment either!


    However, when the yers nced at Sterl''s subordinates, they were baffled once more.


    Because they too wore expressions of disbelief!


    Including the seemingly loyal Teresa, who looked utterly bewildered by the scene around her.


    She knelt on the ground, her hair disheveled, and the high-temperature air currents created by Celestial Stars blowing her clothes and hair, giving her a somewhat picturesque appearance.


    But her eyes were filled with confusion.


    "Lord David, your Celestial Stars..."


    Teresa began to speak but then realized she couldn''t reveal any information about her master, quickly shutting her mouth, though her eyes grew increasingly puzzled.


    Sterl''s other subordinates wore simr expressions, utterly baffled.


    Previously, during the trials in the Divine Mountain Empire, they had seen Lord David in action, but he had never been this powerful.


    Back then, Celestial Stars couldn''t have killed third-ss yers, especially those veteran powerhouses among them!


    For a moment, the atmosphere was incredibly silent, until the sound of footsteps echoed from a distance.


    Soon, Sterl saw several more third-ss yers arriving with a group of second-ss yers, seemingly here for reinforcements.


    The second-ss yers below rushed towards the newly arrived third-ss yers, exining what had just transpired.


    Sterl remained unmoved, allowing them tomunicate. He even pondered whether using Celestial Stars again on these new enemies would be too monotonous.


    His subordinates, including Teresa, hurried over to where Sterl stood, seeking shelter.


    "Lord David, it''s our ipetence."


    "We forced you to take action."


    "Please punish us!"


    Sterl''s subordinates knelt, begging for forgiveness.


    Sterl merely waved his hand slightly, indicating that he didn''t mind.


    "You all did well."


    "Teresa, your loyalty is indeed felt."


    Heforted them gently.


    Meanwhile, the second-ss yers from various bases wore strange expressions as they looked at the newly arrived third-ss yers.


    Some whispered in shock.


    "That''s an elder from the Ironheart family!"


    "That''s Mr. Kalman!"


    "Isn''t that...?"


    ...


    Amidst their scattered murmurs, Sterl could tell that these new arrivals were core members of the families that had previously judged Teresa and her group.


    As for why they had arrived only now, Sterl quickly understood that these families were indeed cautious. Not only did the prominent family heads show up, but they also had third-ss yers lying in ambush to ensure that if Teresa''s backers appeared, they could be taken down securely.


    Unfortunately, the family heads were wiped out in an instant, and by the time these reinforcements heard themotion and arrived, it was toote.


    The newly arrived third-ss yers listened to the reports from the onsite intelligence personnel, their expressions shifting continuously.


    The second-ss yers from various bases watched this scene with a glimmer of hope. They felt they had already offended David to the point of no return, making survival difficult!


    The two Celestial Stars earlier were terrifyingly powerful, and David didn''t seem to have expended much energy.


    But what if? What if David was just pretending to be nonchnt, and was actually severely drained? Then these third-ss family members still had a chance to kill him!


    And they would be saved!


    The second-ss yers felt somewhat relieved, watching expectantly for the actions of the third-ss family members.


    And their hopes were not in vain.


    The powerful third-ss yers, after hearing the intelligence reports, had their expressions change dramatically. They swiftly rushed towards "David"!


    They moved with great confidence, their actions bold and expansive!


    Bang! Bang! Bang!


    They all knelt on the ground!


    "Apologies! Mr. David!"


    "We arrived toote!"


    "Huh?" Sterl was stunned, unable toprehend what these people were up to.


    Then, without hesitation, the third-ss family members waved their hands, signaling several other third-ss yers and a group of second-ss yers to attack the ordinary second-ss yers.


    They went all out, even using golden-quality skills.


    Although the killing efficiency was not as high as Sterl''s Celestial Stars, they still quickly turned the remaining second-ss forces of each base upside down!


    As they ughtered, they shouted curses.


    "You bastards dare to harm our honored guest of the human race!"


    "Using your heads to appease Mr. David''s anger!"
