Seeing this, Sebastian was stunned. As one of the special perks of his system, he expected the snooping tool to be extremely useful but he did not expect the information displayed by it to be this detailed.

Perhaps, it was because he was stronger than the shark but this was still a little too ridiculous, it was like he was staring at his own status.

He knew he didn't have the time to stay in one place for a long time but he did as he wanted which was to go through the stats now, he was really surprised.

The basic stats of the Great White Shark, including the health and mana points, showed the difference between him and other predators of the orange tier, they were miles apart.

This perfectly explained his ability to battle to a stand-still with predators of the purple tier, having not lost pathetically once in all the encounters.

For the body and magic skills of the shark, all he could say was that they were just so-so, perhaps except the Bush Tentacle Entanglement and the Frenzy Bite.

For the frenzy bite, he didn't have a perfect visualization of it as the shark didn't have a chance to bite him in the previous battle. He bossed the duel from the beginning till the end.

The only stats of the shark that was a little commendable to him was his adaptations. Though he didn't see them all in action in the previous battle, their names revealed a lot to him of what they were capable of doing.

With his observation and testing of the snooping tool done, he was about to leave but another thought suddenly struck his mind. He already earned the respect of the shark, why not just use this opportunity to try his new skill on him? 

Perhaps, he may have the opportunity to use it on Verni or even Tosh later but no one said using it now was a crime.

While Bush was perplexed about why the new shark suddenly hovered motionless with its tail only flapping back and forth, he was surprised as Sebastian suddenly swam closer to him.

Sebastian didn't stand on ceremony, he directly made contact with the shark.

[You have activated magic domain skill: Vibrational Search.]

[Sonic vibration has been induced in target's body…, internal body structure is being broken down and analyzed.]

[Analysis incomplete…, search has been interrupted.]

When Sebastian came into contact with him, Bush was stunned as he felt a familiar but at the same time, strange feeling pervade his body. The only difference was that this time he was not asleep, and the itch was maddening. 

When it became unbearable, he struggled, breaking free from the other shark's body which in turn interrupted Sebastian.

[You have obtained an incomplete analysis of the Great White Shark- Bush.]

[Species: Mature Great White- Shark.]

[Tier: Orange Tier.]

[Battle Strength: ???]

[Magic Domain: ???]

[Evolution Route: ???]

[Size: ???]

[Age: Approximately 12 years old.]

Seeing the information that was displayed before him, Sebastian quickly understood the circumstances. He finally knew why he had to be affected by illusion magic and made to sleep before he was evaluated.

He was not the shark at the receiving end of the skill but from the reaction of the shark, he could make a lot of inferences.

First was that when activated on a target, the target must remain stationary as a slight shake might interrupt the skill as just illustrated by him. The second was that the target of the skill must be asleep, this was to escape the unbearable itch.

Another fact that he noticed was the keen similarity between the use of his system snooping tool and the skill. 

From what he already saw, the snooping tool revealed general information about the target like stats, name, species, and the tier. 

For the vibrational search skill, though it looked the same, its use was mostly in going deeper into the internal body and magical structure of the target to get hidden information.

Information like the age, battle strength, magic domain, and even the evolution route of the target. 

He guessed that with more proficiency over the skill, perhaps, someday, he could infer hidden information about the mysteries in the bloodline of the target predator that he touched.

After spending so much time in this world, he already started noticing the strategic importance that bloodlines played. 

Perhaps, there were even more mysteries stored in bloodlines than unique skills and the only reason why his system still kept him in the dark was that he was not strong enough to know about it.

Of the many stats revealed of his duel opponent, the more striking one of all to him was its age. Compared to Verni who was 5, despite being 12 already, Bush was still in the category of teenage Great White sharks.

After he organized all the thoughts that were raging and clashing in his head, this was when Sebastian noticed that he already spent too much time in one place.

Originally, after he won the duel so convincingly, the spectating sharks gushed over his awesomeness, chanting his name excitedly but this stopped due to the strange actions that he displayed after winning.

At this moment, even Tosh was confused as he looked at him with a weird expression. "What's he up to?"

Noticing this, Sebastian felt awkward but he improvised on the spot. Without saying a word to anyone, he turned around like he just completed an intense meditation session, then he swam back inside the cave.

Tosh was stunned for a few seconds before rushing to follow him in.

It was only after Sebastian disappeared that the spectating sharks recovered. Though Sebastian's last few actions were weird, they didn't pay much attention to it due to the fierce prowess that he displayed in the duel.

"Such a powerful bro! Is he stronger than Tungsten?"
