You can't remove the last remaining basemap layer. It sets up a lot of the Web Map, including the coordinate system.

What you can do is:

  • Change the basemap; or
  • Customise the basemap

To customize the basemap you will need to add another layer (e.g. Esri world imagery) into the basemap before you can remove the topographic layer.

Jamal,

        the Topographic service is your basemap. Every web map has a basemap.  You can use the Basemap tool to select another basemap that will be less distracting.  The Light Gray Canvas would be a nice choice.

Another option is to use one of your own layers as the basemap but I don't think this is possible with a hosted feature layer.  I know when I add a map service from our own ArcGIS Server I have the option to use it as the basemap:
