God's Eyes

Chapter 647 - Not Yet

Even though the Devir, Zar, sounded enraged about being underestimated, his instincts told him that Jason was a little bit dangerous.

The young human in front of him didn't even budge, but the aura and Stigma he saw and sensed were already enough to make him pay a tad more attention to Jason.

Other than that, his mana fluctuations were firmer than they should be at his cultivation base, which indicated that he was stronger than one would think at first glance.

Nevertheless, Zar didn't even think about backing off as he entered one of the combat rings, followed by Jason, who was looking around as if he was in search of something specific.

'The body refinement and cultivation techniques used by the Tritans don't look bad...at least if I see the results properly! In that case, they should have good martial art techniques too….I wonder if I can learn one of them…'

Using his Emperor Eyes, Jason scanned every single of the cadet's body, trying to figure out what kind of Body refinement, and Cultivation technique they were using, in order to perceive the rough level of progress.

With Terra-Advanced, or Peak techniques as strongest techniques, the humans on Manyr, and both the Aeus and Devirs were simply at the level of common races.

However, Jason didn't think that the Devirs and Aeus were common races, and the same applied to the Manyrs.

All three races had an equal chance to undergo a double awakening and met multiple more requirements to be considered a higher race.

As such, it was not unlikely that a few Heaven grade manuals were in the possession of existences like Luna, and other powerhouses of the respective races.

This was interesting, but at the same time, Jason couldn't even be sure whether Luna was a human of the Manyr race, or if like him, she belonged to another planet.

In the end, this didn't matter, and the only important factor he had wanted to figure out was the rough ranking of the three races because it was highly possible that he would create many issues for them.

At least, that was what Jason felt.

With that in mind, he entered the combat arena, facing Zar, who looked at him with a glare that caused Jason to smile bitterly.

It made him wonder how some people could have such low self-esteem that they would get enraged at the slightest provocation.

Shaking his head, he approached the opposite end of the gigantic combat ring that had more than enough space to let dozens of people fight against each other.

Yet, right now, it was completely empty, and the gazes of the multitude of cadets lingered on him.

Jennifer was hovering above the center of the arena, ready to start the countdown once Zar and Jason were ready.

Only three seconds later, the spar had already started, and Zar didn't waste any time, as he shot forward, unsheathing two daggers.

Crossing the distance of a hundred meters in a matter of seconds, he emerged in front of Jason, who hadn't moved a single inch.

'Is he afraid?' Zar wondered with a sly smile on his face as he stabbed the dagger in his left hand past Jason, only to twist it, aiming at his side.

Before the dagger could make contact with Jason's skin, he took half a step backward as he twisted his body to the right.

Jason's reflexes were lightning quick and predictably, Zar's attack missed its target, causing him to stumble forward as he suddenly felt something rough around the ankle of his right foot.

A premonition flashed through his mind, and he wanted to break out of the sudden entrapment, as he looked straight into Jason's eyes.

His eyes were sparkling but shockingly, their property had changed to that of a reptile, with golden-silverish eyes.

Unbeknownst to Zar, a second Stigma had manifested above Jason's already existing stigma, and the young arrogant Devir could only sense deep shock sweeping through his body. He flinched owing to the Petrification curse that affected his entire body.

Only a moment later, the race specific weakening curse began to act, infiltrating the Devirs' entire being, weakening his physical strength only slightly.

Because Jason's cultivation base was too weak and the gap between his opponent's cultivation stage to that of his own was high, the petrification curse and the race specific weakening curse's effect were not that great.

Nevertheless, it was more than enough after receiving Petri's amplification to occupy his mana core and fuse with his youngest soulbond which increased the effects of his curses.

Other than that, Jason could sense how his body was strengthened to an extent he had never felt before, making him believe that he might be able to reach the physical condition of a being at the Prismar stage soon enough.

This was great news, but at the same time, it made Jason wonder just how strong he would become while being at the Lique stage.

Nevertheless, this thought dispersed as quickly as it had emerged, only to be replaced by the sole desire to defeat Zar.

Having used Petri and his fusion, Jason revealed his secret, but that did not matter because he would rather fight by using a little bit more of his strength while being in a relatively safe position, than being forced to reveal himself only when it came to life-and-death battles.

With Petri's tail and eyes as the only body parts he allowed to be manifested, the five-meter-long tail was everything that could be perceived by the others.

They didn't see the reptilian eyes, but noticing that the long tail was coiled around Zar's leg, the moment Jason evaded him with a subtle movement, everyone expected to see something grand from their comrade, the Devir with the water affinity.

Unfortunately, this was easier said than done, as Zar had been interrupted for a total of two seconds owing to Jason's curses, which was more than enough time for him to finish off the arrogant Devir.

He didn't summon any weapon, but instead, Jason simply manifested scales on top of his knuckles.

The scales he manifested were extremely sharp, and could also help him pierce into his opponent's flesh it hit hard enough with.

With the scales he also received the bare minimum amount of protection, allowing him to launch a counter-attack with a multitude of high velocity, and powerful punches that aimed at the most vulnerable parts of the Devir's body.

One punch after another was initiated, but Zar was unable to move as he was pinned to the ground, held by the tail that was coiled around his entire right leg.

Because of that, Zar used his water affinity for the first time in the entire fight that had started less than a minute ago.

Enveloping his right leg with a layer of water, he didn't hesitate a single second, as the water shot outwards with a terrific speed as it seemingly turned into a blast.

This was unnoticed by the others, but Jason felt that his five-meter-long tail was suddenly pierced through by several water beams that felt like solid spikes.

Uncoiling the tail, Jason hurled Zar away as blood splattered from the tail that was pierced several times while Zar's leg was fully enveloped in a layer of water that had turned into spikes.

From the looks of it, Zar's condition was much worse than Jason's which was mainly owing to the accurately targeted areas at which Jason had driven his punches.

Nevertheless, the young Devir was still relatively fine on the outside.

At least, that was what most thought, only for Jason to smile brightly as he commented,

"If I were you, I would give up now, otherwise it will be a little painful!"

What neither the spectators nor Zar had realised because they had been distracted was that Jason had inflicted several scratches every single time he had hit Zar with his razor-sharp knuckles.

In each of these scratches, Jason had shot a fraction of Solaris' flame at the same temperature as Zar's body, preventing him from noticing anything.

After entering the young Devir's body, the flames simply stayed put, and thus were unnoticed by Zar who had been too distracted in getting out of the entrapment of his legs.

It was exactly because of this that Zar didn't even think about giving up as he shouted out,

"I'm not defeated yet!!"
