Primordial Dimensions

Chapter 368 - Primordial Tournament

It was almost time for the Primordial Tournament to begin.

Shane had utilized the last 30 days to increase his mana purity to [85%] while honing his skills.

Sparring with Aisha and Miriam had been extremely beneficial for him, while the same applied to the young women.

At the same time, he had paid attention to PrimWeb's news that was filled with threads about the Elven war.

It was more destructive and dangerous than Shane had expected which mainly stemmed from the hidden advanced race that supported the Dark Ice Elven.

For the Dark Ice Elven and every race that was in a treaty with them, this was extremely great. Unfortunately, the same couldn't be said for the Forest elven that had suffered the most among all Elven races.

Shane was not sure why the Dark Ice Elves were targeting the Forest Elves, but from the news he had heard, it was not difficult to comprehend that the Dark Ice Elves were hostile, and were almost obsessed with the thought of annihilating the Forest elves.

This was also something that seemed to be happening. According to the news, the Forest Elves' origin planet had been destroyed!!

Despite several protection layers around the entire planet, it hadn't been enough to survive the onslaught of the advanced race that seemed to have started to act fishy!!

Without knowing the exact name of the advanced race, nobody was able to do anything against them.

Knowing their identity also wouldn't help much in countering the attacks of an advanced race.

Shane was not sure why the stronger intermediate, and few advanced races that had activated the system didn't seem to care about the annihilation of an intermediate race that seemed to be slowly approaching its end because it destroyed the carefully established balance.

This was already terrifying, but even more so was that the Dark Ice Elves seemed to be searching for the locations of the origin planet from every ally of the Forest elves.

Was their plan to destroy everyone connected to the Forest elves? This seemed to be the case, and it was not only Shane who couldn't help but worry about what could happen to Igra.

A single attack of a planetary destructive bomb, plasma beam, powerhouse, or other means were enough to destroy Igra.

Mankind had barely been able to awaken Igra's mana core. It would take some time before they could equip themselves with the economical means to increase their defensive mechanisms, let alone the necessary mechanics to construct, maintain, and repair those devices which are used to protect planets.

If everything worked perfectly, without a single issue obstructing an effective acquisition of funds and nurturing mechanics, it would still take more than a decade to have prepared everything necessary to equip Igra with a single protection layer.

Shane couldn't help but feel that this was something mankind could never achieve.

The premonition he had was similar to that of the System and Primordial Dimensions. 

He was certain that something huge would happen to them. Even if they didn't cease to exist, something else must happen, otherwise nothing would make sense to him anymore.

Shane might not know what this could be, but because he felt a premonition about both the Dark Ice Elves, and the Primordial dimensions, it was difficult to stay fully concentrated on one task.

His concentration had been lacking during the first half of his training, and it was only in the second half that he had managed to maintain a laser sharp focus.

This was mainly because he was not using his tamed beasts, or the Hidden Paradise to spar against Aisha and Miriam.

Without these means, Shane was unable to even out their advantage of having a high mana purity, despite his perfect physical foundation.

He was not much weaker in terms of his mana's impact and circulation speed, let alone physical strength, but there was still a small difference.

Yet, instead of thinking that this was annoying, Shane found this great.

His focus had to be invested in improving his strategic thinking, combat experience, observance of subtle movements, martial art techniques, and much more.

This was what Shane had wanted to improve the most which seemed to have worked extremely well.

Under the pressure Aisha and Miriam gave him, Shane felt as if he was slowly being polished.

In the end, he was not sure how high his exact strength was, but the two martial art techniques he owned, reached the Superior rank, exceeding the techniques' limited capabilities.

Overclocking them by exerting more mana into the technique had become possible, and Shane's confidence increased further.

In the Primordial tournament, there wouldn't be a single participant with a perfect mana purity, let alone a perfect foundation.

As such, the strongest opponent wouldn't have a combat prowess much higher than Miriam's.

At least that was what Shane hoped. He was deep in thoughts when he received the sudden notification about the start of the Primordial tournament.

[Primordial tournament will start in |24 hours|! Participant, prepare yourself!]

The message was nothing special, and instead of bothering about it, Shane decided to relax for the next day.

There was no need to push himself further at the last minute. In the end, this would hurt him more than being of help in any way!

He had to pay attention to his health too! 

Considering that it was likely for him to fight around twice a day for the next few days, Shane knew that he had to be careful.

Under normal circumstances, fighting two times a day was not even a warm-up for Shane, but by utilizing every means to strengthen himself, the strenuous physical activity was bound to take a toll on his body.

As such, it would be extremely difficult to fight several times a day while using his utmost efforts to fight with all means, for a longer span of duration at that.

He was not even sure if his fortune was great enough to avoid fighting against the most powerful opponents in the beginning.

This was important to slowly adjust to the kind of strength the participants of the Primordial tournament would have.

Right now, he might act too vigilant and overly careful, but Shane knew that the most important thing for him was not to die.

Even if showing everyone that he was the most powerful would be satisfying, which included the ginormous reward the top three rank holders would receive, coming out alive was the basic prerequisite to receive rewards, let alone to continue striving for more!!

The next 24 hours passed quickly, and Shane didn't even realise that he was able to have such a calm mind.

He didn't have to think about anything at all, and could just do whatever he wanted.

It was not that he was unable to act however he pleased since he had left his father's home, but his subconscious had always dragged him to strive for more, to stay determined, and to become the strongest.

Now that these thoughts were not present, he spent some time with the Astral Artisans, or to be precise with the first group of Artisans he had hired.

They had improved a lot, and by using the nurturing grounds, everyone had increased their mana purity to an extremely high degree.

For Artisans without any combat experience, the system provided adjusted missions. This allowed them to receive the opportunity to increase their mana purity too!

Shane was not sure why the system, or to be more precise, the administrator allowed something like this. In his opinion, one should be versatile and strong in every aspect, but he would be the last person to complain about this.

This same exact feature had helped his friends to increase their mana purity too, after all!

Once his resting day had passed, Shane felt extremely vigorous as if he had been in a sleep induced coma for several days.

Another system notification appeared in front of him, requesting his approval to teleport him to the place at which the Primordial tournament would be held.

Without showing any signs of hesitation, Shane approved the request which allowed him to appear in the center of a ginormous city that was in fact a city-sized colosseum!!
