Chapter 538 - Olympian

It didn't take Jason long to notice that the subsequent rounds were becoming more dangerous, but that couldn't be considered a problem.

Even after a total of 25 wins in a row, Jason had yet to break a sweat.

His mana consumption was as low as before, while he was still fighting with his bare hands.

The receptionist had been told to continue watching Jason's battle, but what she saw was something she couldn't comprehend.

After receiving the orders, she had used the alpha unit to ensure that Jason had a hard time.

Compared to normal cultivators, their combat prowess, experience, and techniques were at a much higher level.

To put it simply, a member of the Alpha unit at the peak 1st Lique stage was strong enough to defeat those common cultivators at the 2nd Lique stage!

Unfortunately, that was not enough to defeat Jason, who could do this with a flick of his finger.

With a winning streak in the 20s, he had to fight opponents at the 3rd Lique stage, with a combat prowess of the 4th Lique stage.

The game had just turned interesting, but Jason was still only using his physical strength.

Because of that, the receptionist had been deceived to believe that he belonged to a race that didn't have an affinity and was solely focusing on their physical strength.

As such, she could sigh in relief, thinking that it wouldn't take long before Jason would lose.

It was not that she wanted to take everything from the silver dragon masked man, but it was her job to follow the instructions she had received.

Furthermore, the young man had been too confident in his abilities to bet everything he owned on the 50th round!

Now, as she watched his combat prowess she believed that the silver dragon masked man was strong enough to make it to the 30th, maybe even 40th round if he were to use his utmost efforts.

However, fighting in the 50th round meant that his opponent was at the peak of the 6th Lique stage, in addition to an Olympian!

Comparing an Olympian with ordinary participants of the colosseum was taking it too far, and even the members of the alpha unit would only retreat in fear if they had to face one of them.

When Jason had his 30th fight in a row, his Emperor Eyes immediately detected the difference in his opponent's strength.

There was not even the need for someone to announce that the 30th opponent was extremely strong or that he belonged to a different unit because it was evident!

Despite that, Jason just smiled as he looked around.

The others had long since returned to fight against other colosseum participants.

They had noticed that Jason's opponents were much stronger than their own and that the experience they showcased was different.

Because of that, they could only think that Jason had done something that caused the Colosseum to assign more experienced and dangerous opponents to fight him.

This assumption was proven correct as they noticed the receptionist who had registered them. She had been staring at the combat arena in which Jason fought for the entire time.

Intrigued and at the same time frustrated by the thought that Jason was casually defeating opponents they would take more than a minute to knock out, the God's Children had returned to the arena.

Without using their affinity, let alone fortified soul conjunction, they used their physical strength to suppress their opponents.

At the same time, they observed the subtle movements of every foe they were fighting. It was important to figure out what they were lacking, otherwise, it would become more difficult to improve.

Paying attention to their opponents, learning their fight stance, and devising ways to defeat them was one way to achieve that. Another way would be that someone would teach them directly.

However, this would only mean that they had to rely on someone else to become stronger.

At the end of the day, it was important for the God's Children to learn that they had to become independent and that it was necessary to create their own way.

The God's children had always received help or guidance from their ancestors so now they were struggling much more than anyone had expected, and even their ancestors had to acknowledge that.

Only by learning from mistakes was it possible to fix them and improve, which would help them attain perfection.

Nobody was perfect but there were those who tried to become a better version of themselves.

Even if it was only a minuscule, almost intractable improvement every single day, or even week, the final result was worth every single ounce of effort!

This was what made standing up after every fall and never giving up so important and the difference between real prodigies and those that inherited talent!

All of them were hard-working in their incessant efforts to find flaws in their own techniques, mindset and to fix them.

The Olympian in front of Jason noticed his nonchalant behavior which enraged him. This forced Jason to return his attention to the young man who had been standing in front of him.

It was a Dragonewt with traces of dragon blood in his veins. Jason had heard about them, and interestingly many different types of Dragonnewts existed.

Apparently, dragons could change their form, and turn into bipedal beings once their cultivation base reached a certain standard.

Jason found this interesting, but even more so was the fact that dragons could procreate with many more races than one could have ever expected.

When he had read about that a few months ago in Janur's library, Jason had been astonished, wondering if dragonewts that shared a bloodline with the human race existed.

If his own existence was possible, so could be that of a human blood dragonewt.

Because of that, he had asked himself whether they would awaken a soul world because of their human bloodline, or if they would simply receive the awakening of an affinity according to their dragon bloodline.

Maybe it was also a soul world with the affinity from the dragon bloodline's side, but that was uncertain.

Jason found this very interesting, and the same could be applied to his own soul world.

He had always wondered why he had awoken all affinities within his soul world. The only logical explanation was that the Celestia bloodline had been the cause for this ability.

This would however mean that the Celestia race was able to make use of every existing element, which was unlikely.

At least, Jason assumed this to be unlikely, yet, at the same time, it was more logical than a human awakening hundreds of different elemental affinities!

Nevertheless, the dragonewt in front of him had just a fire affinity and a slightly enlarged mana core.

The Olympian was at the peak of the 4th Lique stage, but Jason assumed his strength to be at par with the peak of the 5th Lique stage, notwithstanding his combat experience.

Adding his affinity's strength that seemed to be exceptional too, Jason could only nod his head, approving that the young dragonewt was strong.

Unfortunately, he encountered the wrong person. Even without using Solaris to dominate his opponent's fire affinity, Jason's fire resistance was superior.

Other than that, he had yet to figure out Petri's defensive capabilities after his scales were manifested!

In Jason's opinion, it was finally time to test his newest soulbond's strength, originating from the path of primordial energy!
