Because the Imperial Family of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation had a rule for today's selection that no killing was allowed, and also because Wyatt Barnes and Pole Wind couldn't really be said to have a life-and-death enmity, he withdrew most of his power in time at the critical moment.

For that reason, when Pole Wind was blasted flying and slammed into the solid wall of Glory Palace, he was only gravely injured and was not killed by Wyatt.
However, even so, Pole Wind had already lost the strength to fight again; supporting himself on the wall, he only managed to barely stand up after a long moment.
"Th… thank you for showing mercy."
Pole Wind braced himself against the wall and forced himself to stand, and when he looked at Wyatt again, not only was there no hatred in his eyes, there was instead a trace of gratitude—gratitude for Wyatt's mercy in sparing his life.
Just now, when Wyatt's massive sword swept across, its might was overwhelming, almost suffocating him.
