Although the voice coming from above their heads sounded very unfamiliar, for everyone present, the person who made that voice was all too familiar.
He appeared here suddenly like a ghost, but this situation did not cause any surprise or shock among the people present.
Although when they heard this voice, everyone's bodies involuntarily produced a strong physical feeling of nausea, they still all looked toward the direction the voice came from at the same time, focusing their eyes on the speaker.
And when everyone finally saw D's real appearance clearly, the disgust that already existed on each person's face instantly became even stronger, as if it were about to overflow.
It is worth mentioning that the obvious disgust everyone showed had nothing to do with D's appearance.
The real reason that made everyone feel repulsed and even deeply hateful was D's arrogant attitude of always being high above others, looking down on everyone and everything in the world with extreme contempt.
Among the many participants who came to take part in this difficult trial, there were quite a few hot-tempered and easily angered players.
There were also all kinds of beings who had once suffered the ruthless destruction and devastation of the void.
And there were also the beings from that previous world who had been manipulated and used by the void while possessing iron golems.
Logically speaking, after personally witnessing the true nature of the void, at this moment the hearts of these people should have been like a stormy sea, unable to stay calm.
Even if no one had acted rashly out of impulse yet, at the very least they should have openly shown extreme hatred toward the void.
However, what was surprising was that within this huge crowd, not even the slightest sound could be heard.
It was as if they shared the same understanding, all choosing silence at the same time.
Everyone pressed their lips tightly together, brows furrowed, their eyes steady and calm, as if some kind of understanding had been carefully planned beforehand.
But in reality, this was not a carefully planned arrangement.
In fact, the reason they were able to control their emotions and actions so steadily was absolutely not because of fear of the endless void.
On the contrary, inside their chests burned clusters of fierce anger, like surging volcanic lava that was almost about to burst out of their bodies.
They wished they could immediately rush forward and tear D into countless pieces with their own hands, to vent the hatred and resentment that had built up inside them for so long.
However, reason stood like an unbreakable dam, firmly blocking their impulsive steps.
They understood very clearly that in the current complicated and difficult situation, any extreme action or reckless threats would only be meaningless emotional release, and would not change the situation in the slightest.
Not only that, if they really did such things, it might even further provoke D.
If the void used their lives as bargaining chips to threaten Xu Yuan into submission, it would surely push Xu Yuan into a dilemma with no way forward or back.
Therefore, even though their hearts were filled with hatred toward the void, even though their enemy stood right before them within reach, they still gritted their teeth and forcibly suppressed the intense emotional waves rising in their hearts.
All this endurance and restraint existed for one simple and crucial purpose, to not cause Xu Yuan even the slightest trouble.
At this moment, the calmness and extraordinary self-control everyone showed clearly demonstrated the remarkable growth they had achieved in the Trial Land.
At this moment, everyone's hearts seemed tightly connected together, and their determination had become firmer than ever before.
For the same goal, for the same enemy, they worked together.
This scene undoubtedly surprised Tyrant HIM and Fan Village HIM.
Deep down, Tyrant HIM and Fan Village HIM had naturally been worried that the participants might act recklessly, because they knew such behavior could easily trigger a chain reaction of unpredictable consequences.
However, what they never expected was that even without anyone stepping forward to organize them, these participants could all remain calm and composed without making a single move.
At this moment, among the many people present, the ones feeling surprised were definitely not only Tyrant HIM and Fan Village HIM.
When D's gaze swept across the participants, his already large eyes widened instantly like bronze bells, and his mouth opened wide enough to fit an egg, his whole expression extremely exaggerated.
He stared straight at the participants in front of him and could not help but sigh.
"This is truly astonishing!"
Then he shouted emotionally, "This is practically a scene that brings tears to the eyes!"
Then, as if to vent the disbelief in his heart, he continued.
"What kind of unshakable belief is supporting all of you guys, that even when facing a villain like me who you see as unforgivable and utterly evil, you can still remain so calm and unmoved?"
At this point, D chuckled.
"So this is the so-called belief and power of justice?"
As soon as he finished speaking, D suddenly turned his head and locked his gaze firmly onto Xu Yuan.
In an instant, a trace of envy appeared on his astonished face, mixed with a bit of barely noticeable jealousy.
"To be honest, I'm a little jealous of you."
D was not stupid. He naturally understood that everyone was holding back, and the reason they held back was obviously because they did not want to drag Xu Yuan down.
Just as D himself said, in a situation like this, he truly did feel some jealousy toward Xu Yuan.
After all, the people present were not just a small group of individuals. What they represented was the countless living beings of this world.
After experiencing only a single trial, Xu Yuan had actually transformed into the spiritual pillar worshipped by everyone.
Even the iron golems who had once been brainwashed by the void had now willingly submitted under Xu Yuan.
The scene before him looked exactly like the time when the true HIM led countless beings in confrontation against D.
However, the only difference lay in their eyes.
Back then, although those beings had trusted the true HIM deeply, when the final life-and-death battle came, what filled most of their eyes was the determination to fight to the death.
But now, the beings standing behind Xu Yuan had eyes that clearly shone with blazing flames of hope.
The difference between the two was like heaven and earth.
For D, it was obvious that the latter had a far greater impact on him, and was far more devastating.
