God's Eyes

Chapter 851 - Tools?

Now that they were accepted by the camp people, both of them were eager to demonstrate how strong they were. Thus, they looked at the weekly comparison event's meaning changed.

Under normal circumstances, the humans were asked to spar with each other to show how much they progressed before pointing out certain mistakes others were making.

This would increase peer pressure to improve oneself.

If someone was making the exact same mistakes week after week, it would clearly mean that one was slacking off.

Being publicly called out for the mistakes was embarrassing, to say the least.

With that simple psychological strategy, everyone was indirectly forced to work hard as long as they attended the weekly comparison event.

Thus, the number of flaws they had drastically decreased since they had begun to hold these events.

Linus's efforts had paid off and he was proud to be able to show Jason what he had created in only a few years.

By now, almost everyone wanted to attend the weekly comparison event, but now Linus had started to limit it to only a specific number of people who were allowed to attend them.

This was another factor that forced everyone, who wanted to attend the event, to work even harder.

He had turned being accepted into the event as a matter of prestige.

The attendees had to be careful to show their utmost efforts and allow none to overtake them.

It was a great system to make everyone work hard, and the few dozen people wanted to prove to Jason that there was a reason that they had been rightfully chosen.

With that in mind, the first few people began to spar against each other, while the rest were watching intently.

Some were even preparing notes in order to point out mistakes in the combatants' martial art technique, how they could have used their mana circulation better, and so on.

Seeing how focused everyone was, reminded Jason of Argos.

He couldn't help but smile at the memory of his school were the most prodigious talents worked hard to become stronger.

Unfortunately, Argos had not been a good place to cultivate and become stronger which was evident by looking at the current situation.

It was impossible to compare the prodigies of Argos with the people that were currently fighting against each other because their talent was at most above average.

Not even a few minutes passed in which Jason observed the fight before he quickly got bored. However, he forced himself to continue watching the battle.

Initially, he was excited, but right now he had to avoid his facial expression from openly expressing his disappointment.

It was quite obvious that the most prodigious talents on Argos didn't leave the planet because they could use other means to achieve great things.

Furthermore, they were too prideful to accept the fact that they had to submit themselves to other races in order to grow stronger.

However, this was perfectly normal for the average talent.

There were only a handful of truly talented people that would accept submitting to others after all.

Unfortunately, none of the combatants he was watching belonged to this category.

If Jason had to pick a positive aspect, it would be the strength of their soulbonds, and the fact that they were able to forcefully create a fusion with the Ninad beasts they had bound.

While comparing his smooth fusion in which he could naturally release and manifest all body parts according to his own will, he felt that the forced fusion looked hideous.

The fusion with soulbonds was nothing less than sacred for Jason because the feeling of having fused with one of his soulbonds was truly miraculous and great.

Yet, the longer he looked at the fights, the more disgusted Jason felt.

Jennifer noticed this, and she could partially understand how he was feeling.

Though she had never had soulbonds, even she could tell that the combatants in front of them were not only untalented but they also forced their soulbonds to fuse with them.

There was no free will of either party in the soulbond, and the unwillingness of the soulbonds to fuse with their binder was evident because the body part manifestation was not working properly.

In fact, it looked like the manifested body parts were acting as if they repulsed their binder's body.

This clearly showed that the soulbonds and binder didn't have a great relationship with each other.

Their bond seemed to have been forced, which caused her to frown for a moment before she lowered her head in an effort to hide her emotions.

She had seen Jason and the relationship he had with his soulbonds up close.

So while comparing that to the other humans, Jennifer couldn't help but feel that the Shiman camp was barbaric.

As she tried to think of ways to stop frowning, her thoughts automatically drifted to Jason.

Just the thought of Jason, and his five soulbonds that were clinging to him like glue was more than enough.

Reclaiming her poker face, she looked up, where Jennifer was able to continue witnessing the battles of the humans that were using the manifested body parts in a cruel manner.

They didn't even care if the body parts of their soulbonds were being torn out or injured, just because it didn't harm their combat prowess.

This clearly showed how little they cared about their soulbonds' well-being. Jennifer was now of the belief that the people inside the Shiman camp were treating their soulbonds as mere tools.

Looking over to Jason, she saw that he was calmly sitting there, looking at the situation as if it had nothing to do with him.

The sight astonished her for a moment because she felt horrible while looking at the situation.

As such, Jason's behavior was odd, but when she looked at him intently, she realized it was a facade.

She spotted a faint glint in his eyes, his twitching hand that held hers, and the Stigma above his right eye that was slightly fluctuating.

Only now did Jennifer understand that he was holding himself back.

When she perceived this, Jennifer told herself that she had to hold back too.

Her instincts had almost made her jump up from the seat to see someone tear out the wing of another combatant.

The manifested body parts were replicas of the soulbonds' real bodies, but that didn't mean they weren't directly connected to each other.

While Jason felt bad for every single scratch that appeared on the body parts of his soulbonds and cared about them more than his own body, the humans around them were the exact opposite.

To them, shielding their own body was far more important than the body parts of the soulbonds they neither wanted nor cared about.

Thus, they didn't even attempt to protect the manifested body parts and let it be torn apart to save their necks.

As such, the spars that lasted a few hours were testing Jennifer's patience to the limit.

She was forced to keep a poker face while watching the bloody battles that were mostly harming the soulbonds' manifested body parts.

Only when the last spar ended did she finally sigh in relief, glad that the torture was over.

Meanwhile, Jason's expression eased up too, only to hear Linus who was sitting next to them saying something.

"Normally we would now start ranking the fights according to the number of mistakes that have been made, followed by the detailed explanation of every single mistake.

However, because we have two new guests, how about we allow them to spar against two of our group? They should be able to fight well together, and I don't believe that fighting them will be boring!"

Linus' idea was quickly accepted by the others with a loud cheer.

They were similarly interested to figure out how strong Jason was because his mana fluctuations were extremely dense.

Meanwhile, Jennifer's three energies were similarly strong, giving off a dangerous vibe.

Thus, they were eager to see Jason and Jennifer fighting together against two of their camp members.

As for Jason and Jennifer, they could only look at each other with a meaningful look.

They both nodded their head as they thought of something only to simultaneously mumble,

"Don't overdo it!"

"Hold back, okay?"
