"Only ten seconds are left...It's hopeless." Sage Marshal shook his head as he eyed the poor six players without an elimination, "They can only use a surrender coupon and leave while they still can."
When the countdown reached one, all of them disintegrated into light particles under the sighs of relief from their fans.
They possessed surrender coupon and didn't greed on keeping it when a meeting with the grim reaper was literally one second away.
Some viewers were disappointed when no one got executed, but it was expected in a diamond games.
Deaths were quite rare since everyone had honed their survival instincts to help them avoid meeting their maker.
When they get placed in games with a certain execution mechanism like this, they were given the opportunity to reject participating in it.
Such a opportunity was given only once per year since those players were diamond ranked and deserved such a treatment.
