Chapter 539: Worthy opponent

Jason had his feet firmly planted on the ground, unmoving, and looked at the dragonewt that belonged to the Olympians without a trace of fear.

Meanwhile, the dragonewt was rushing towards Jason with extremely fast strides.

His wings were tightly pressed on his scaly back as he smiled lightly. 

Despite having observed Jason's earlier battles, the dragonewt assumed that Jason's sole perk was his terrific, high physical strength. 

As such, he wanted to approach Jason's while summoning two highly compressed balls of fire into his hand. 

They would explode upon contact and were considered one of the secret weapons the dragonewt had created. By throwing them towards Jason, the dragonewt hoped that it would most certainly end his life or turn him into a cripple. 

However, Jason's unruffled expressions and his cool demeanor visibly enraged his opponent who had expected him to show signs of nervousness.

As such, he manifested a dozen of those highly compressed, explosive balls of fire.

This drained lots of mana out of him, but he couldn't care less.

If Jason were to survive the barrage of explosive fireballs with severe injuries, he would have learned his lesson; to never underestimate an Olympian.

Upon coming in contact with Jason, the multitude of fireballs exploded, creating a huge cloud of smoke that enveloped the entire arena.

Nobody could see what happened, or what was going on inside the thick smoke.

Suddenly, without any warning, a huge, red body was catapulted out of the arena and crashed into the wall. It already bore numerous cracks and holes due to the opponents Jason had defeated earlier by flinging them towards the same wall.

It was slowly starting to crumble, as rubble rained down upon the being that had been thrown out of the arena.

Jason had never faced an issue with figuring out what kinds of attacks were to hit him, and the dragonewts attack was nothing noteworthy.

Under normal circumstances it might have been enough to make him feel pain, but not after he had summoned Petri's armor!

His entire body was covered in black scales that had golden, vein-like patterns engraved within. Jason had even manifested a small tail that had grown out of his coccyx.

There were many things he wanted to try, and he had hoped that the dragonewt was more than just empty air!

Unfortunately, the compressed explosive balls of fire were equivalent to light scratches, while its physical strength was incomparable to the drastic enhancement provided by Petri.

After the smoke cleared, Jason could only stare at the receptionist before he sighed deeply.

She seemed to be utterly shocked and turned to the device that had been used to call the old dragonewt before.

Jason assumed that the old dragonewt was in charge of the colosseum.

This might have been interesting for others, but Jason just wanted to fight.

His physical strength might be high, but he had yet to fight someone who would draw out more than the brute force from him.

Even for his physical strength, Jason had yet to find someone he could learn something from.

He had wanted to give himself the same requirements as the God's Children had.

However, his final goals were different!

His fortified soul conjunction with Petri was still new, and there were many things both had yet to learn from each other.

Furthermore, he had yet to perfect the Floating sky movement technique! This was essential and something Jason wanted to achieve before the liberation tournament would begin.

As such, Jason had told himself that he would only focus on his physical strength, Petri's fortified soul conjunction, and the martial art techniques he wanted to learn.

Using Solaris' fire ability might have been advantageous to defeat every single one of his opponents, but taking the easy way was not the correct path for him if he wanted to improve.

In the end, an easier path would only make him rusty, and be less helpful to improve himself.

Nevertheless, the 30th opponent was not yet enough for him to practice his martial art techniques!

The pressure was not yet high enough!

Time passed slowly and Jason had yet to find a worthy opponent. After the 30th battle, it took much longer for Jason to be matched against others, even though he knew that they were just waiting to fight him.

Jason could tell this because there were more than two dozen people standing around the receptionist, seemingly waiting for their chance to fight him.

All of them were staring at him like hyenas, but Jason could only stare back.

The golden light originating from his eyes swept through the slit of his silver-dragon mask, turning his appearance more intimidating than it already was.

Slowly, but steadily, the news about the Olympians fighting against a single individual and getting defeated spread through the city, attracting new onlookers that were rapidly filling the colosseum.

More and more spectators entered the colosseum, starting to make bets on the Olympians that had a great reputation for their superior strength.

Nobody had ever heard of the silver-masked man, and even though his appearance was scary, everyone was certain of the fact that he wouldn't be able to defeat his 50th opponent.

Even if they acknowledged that he was stronger than most common Olympians after a few battles, the most important fact according to them was that Jason would be unable to win his bet.

That was what the spectators had betted for; Jason's defeat, and what the manager of the colosseum wanted to see as well.

Jason had already tarnished the Olympians' image by defeating 9 of them in a row.

He was just about to make the 40th challenge in a row when he noticed that his body was slowly heating up.

One of the God's Children was currently challenging his 50th opponent, but Jason couldn't help but stare at his opponent.

Somehow, Jason felt pity for Ben, the God's Child, who would lose the battle against the purple-skinned, humanoid race with two pitch-black horns that protruded out of his forehead.

The race, he assumed the young man with a trained body to be called, was Ilians. Not only was their flexibility superior, as well as their highly trained body, thanks to their excellent metabolism, but there were other perks.

These perks were a high mana conductivity that was a great combination to the terrifying thunder affinity Illians had.

Jason had always been interested in getting another lethal affinity he could use to increase his combat prowess.

However, after being injured way too often and losing those close to him, Jason thought that it might be best to wait until he could find a soulbond with extraordinary healing capabilities.

Nevertheless, before a new soulbond would enter Jason's family, lots of time had to pass!

He and the others had to prepare themselves mentally.

Yet, instead of focusing on that fact, right now it was important to focus on the opponent Ben was fighting against.

The Ilians were one of the Olympians who didn't want to wait for Jason any longer.

As such, he wanted to fight those that were deemed as the next strongest.

Unfortunately, Ben was only at the 4th Lique stage and had the weakest soul amplification boost from his soulbonds.

Furthermore, he was eager to become stronger and ignored the threat in front of him.

Because of that Ben avoided using his affinity, let alone fortified soul conjunction, against the opponent who was more than just one rank stronger than his mana core rank indicated!
