Everyone heard Jason's statement that was filled with disappointment, but the so-called prodigies' performance had left no room for anyone to retaliate.
It might have come off as a snide remark, but even to the ancestors, the five God's Children, seemed to be more like pushovers that were only strong due to their soul world, soulbonds and affinities.
However, at the same time, they began to wonder how much experience the Cultivators who fought in the colosseum had gathered.
"Now that everyone has noticed how versatile the combat styles of the colosseum's participants are, figure out your problem and make up for the flaws.
We won't go into the Broken world before this bullshit is solved!!"
Jason knew that he was needlessly annoyed, or even pushing it too far, but the God's Children's confidence was slowly crumbling.
They were starting to wonder whether their entire strength originated from their soul world, or if they had a say in that too.
In Jason's opinion, the God's Children were not weak, but that they were just oblivious to their opponents' versatile tactics, variety of combat styles, and ability to adjust fast enough.
Despite that, they were unlikely to lose before making a winning streak of 50. Betty's opponent in the 50th round would only be at the peak of the 5th Lique stage.
Meanwhile, her soul world allowed Betty to fight against common opponents at the 8th Lique stage!
In comparison to Jason, the God's Children had already bound four strong soulbonds that were on average at the 7th Lique stage.
With a total of four soulbonds that everyone roughly had, they were at an advantage in comparison to Jason.
At least, that was what it should be like.
By using their fortified soul conjunction, everything should be fine with the God's Children achieving their previous goal of winning 50 rounds in a row.
However, that goal was now changed!
At that moment Merl stepped forward as he proposed something.
"First, we should gain permission to enter the broken world. After that, we can stay in Janur for another week to improve everyone's combat experience and learn to study our opponents before entering the world bridge. If I heard correctly, the broken world is a place that is connected to a permanent world bridge, right?"
Merl was not sure if he understood everything correctly, but he hoped so. It would solve many problems if the God's Children were to improve their combat experience before cultivating for two months, only to further train in becoming stronger and more versatile.
Jason wouldn't interfere in anyone's decision, but one thing was sure! He wouldn't waste his time staying one week in Janur, if he could enter the broken world before that!
Right now, his mana core rank was the lowest by at least 1000 drops of mana. At the same time, his soulbonds' amplification was lower than the others too because only two out of his three soulbonds shared their strength with him.
Meanwhile, only Artemis enlarged his mana core as Petri increased his physical strength!
He and Artemis could improve a lot inside the broken world in addition to the resources the colosseum would have to give him for winning the bet.
Furthermore, he could trade mana stones with pryr stones, allowing Petri to cultivate too!
"I think that is the best path for you guys. However, I have a different plan. Right now, my biggest weakness is my low mana core rank as well as that of my soulbonds."
Merl and the other human powerhouses looked at Jason, and it seemed as if they wanted to say something.
But instead of pretending to be oblivious to their dependence on someone who could translate and help them overcome the struggle of a language barrier, they realized that they couldn't rely on Jason every single time.
He had his own plans, and it was already more than enough that he'd taught them for the last few weeks.
Furthermore, Jason wouldn't stay with mankind forever.
This was something he had already announced more than once!
Their knowledge about the Olympus federation and the universal language had improved tremendously, and it was possible for them to communicate while using the simplest sentences.
As such, Merl just nodded his head as Jason turned towards the stairs that led him to the reception where he could queue up for his first fight.
"Combat experience might not be everything, but being able to know what your opponent will do, or how much strength you have to employ to overwhelm them is important.
Right now, experience is what you guys are lacking the most, followed by your proficiency with the martial art techniques I've translated.
The next few weeks will be the most important to fix the flaws, otherwise, the liberation tournament will end for the God's Children before it even starts."
He was crude, but Jason's plan seemed to be working out perfectly fine.
The five young prodigies' mana fluctuations grew unstable due to his statement and they were clearly annoyed and hurt by the way he spoke.
However, now that he'd said everything necessary, it was time to show the God's Children what true dominance truly was!
With that thought in mind, he left them to request his first battle.
There were many young men and women at the 1st Lique stage, and Jason didn't even have to wait before his name was announced for his first battle.
Coincidentally it was to be fought right in front of the elevation where the God's Children and human powerhouses were still standing.
This was great, and Jason couldn't help but smile lightly.
He was not even considered to have entered the peak of the 1st Lique stage as he had less than 900 drops of liquefied mana, yet his drops were compressed and equal to thrice the common liquefied mana drops.
Because of that, it was not even necessary for Jason to take the first 20 rounds he would fight seriously.
The others didn't know that he had made a bet, increasing his difficulty further, but that was something they would notice soon enough.
Jason's first opponent was a Klarir, a race with a humanoid body, a long lizard tail, razor-sharp claws, and eyes that were dark green.
There was not even a trace of white left in those deep emerald eyes, and Jason couldn't help but feel that the young man in front of him looked interesting.
'Humans with a fortified soul conjunction could look similar, if not exactly the same as this man!'
He had a poison affinity and the razor-sharp claws seemed to release some type of poison too.
Despite thinking that this was interesting, Jason couldn't help but be bored with everything else.
His opponent was only at the peak of the 1st Lique stage, what was he supposed to do? Twiddle with his thumbs?
It was not even necessary to be arrogant to tell that his strength was poles apart from the Klarir.
As such, he could only sigh deeply as the battle began.
Nevertheless, instead of playing around, Jason went all in, demonstrating what it meant to fight seriously and to give his best in every single battle!
Showing mercy was not one of his strengths, and it was already lenient enough that he'd refrained from using a weapon!
The Klarir saw this as an opportunity to use his razor-sharp claws as a superior weapon, only to notice that everything was futile!
