Star formation histories (SFH) of early (6$9$, 87% of massive galaxies, ($\log(M_\ast/M_\odot)\gtrsim$9), have SFR gradients consistent with a stochastic star-formation activity during the last 100 Myr, while this fraction drops to 15% at $z<7$. On the other hand, we see an increasing fraction of galaxies with a star-formation activity following a common stream on the SFR-$M_\ast$ plane with cosmic time, indicating that a secular mode of star-formation is emerging. We place our results in the context of the observed excess of UV emission as probed by the UV luminosity function at $z\gtrsim10$, by estimating $\sigma_{UV}$, the dispersion of the UV absolute magnitude distribution, to be of the order of 1.2mag and compare it with predictions from the literature. In conclusion, we find a transition of star-formation mode happening around $z\sim9$: Galaxies with stochastic SFHs dominates at $z\gtrsim9$, although this level of stochasticity is too low to reach those invoked by recent models to reproduce the observed UV luminosity function.
