After the surprise brought by the unprecedentedly fast first match, the succeeding matches proceeds normally, with some of the people showcasing their skills as they fought each other, while some tries their best to survive the onslaught of their opponents, doing their hardest just to grasp that single chance of victory, only for most of them to fail as they couldn't stand their opponents' strength.
While the matches proceeds more quickly now that there is no rest time between each of the matches, it still takes a longer time than the previous rounds given the fact that each of the matches of the seventh round happens individually, rather than the previous rounds' simultaneous match set-up.
This gave the participants who won their fight in the seventh round more time to rest and recuperate as the barrier immediately erects itself now whenever they are out of the battle, the ambient qi in their surrounding seemingly increasing even further as if to accelerate their recovery.
