Jason felt uncomfortable with the choice of words the robotic voice had used to announce the third trial's task.
'After everything is shown' implied that he had to reveal all of his hidden traits, which was definitely not what he wanted, even to pass the trial.
However, this was only a small issue in face of the multitude of hand-sized spheres that were levitating inside the room he had been teleported to.
The three orbs in the center stood out from the rest and one of them looked eerily familiar to Jason.
"Mana mastery orb!" he blurted out only to realise what the orbs right next to it were.
'Don't tell me I need to insert spirit force and primordial energy into the orbs to let my mastery in those two cultivation veins be tested?'
With 'everything is shown' it was given that he had to reveal his talent in all three cultivation paths because to enter the Inheritance site, he was required to have all three veins.
However, in his case, this had been different because Jason was able to enter the Inheritance site just because of his heritage, or at least that was what he understood based on the first messages he had received from the robotic voice.
There were all kinds of other things he had to pay attention to right now, but revealing all of his secrets wouldn't be a child's play in comparison to showing something he didn't even possess!
For a short moment, Jason felt desperate, asking himself how he was supposed to leave the Inheritance site if he could not even pass the third trial.
There was also no countdown which meant that he wouldn't be thrown out if he failed the trial because there was no indicator of what a failure in this trial even was!
This was bad, to put it simply, and Jason couldn't help but acknowledge that he felt a little bit anxious.
However, just a moment later, the thought of Spyro and Petri came into his mind, which made him smile lightly.
Wasting no time, he quickly summoned his soulbonds who looked at him in confusion before Jason explained the entire situation neatly.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64ce79d606107d003c23ea27", id: "pf-5140-1"})Afterward, Jason approached the orbs, whose content was clearly visible to him due to his Emperor Eyes.
Sharing his sight with both, he enabled them to see everything about their own mastery orb clearly.
Through this, they could think of an approach to pass their mastery orb, and Jason did the same.
That was important because the mastery orb in front of him was extremely difficult to solve owing to the countless knots it had.
He had never seen something as complex if he were to exclude world bridges. As such, he realised that he had to pay more attention to passing the test.
That was, even more, the case because Jason couldn't rely on Petri, let alone Spyro to pass the test, even if they had enough time.
Because of that, Jason was the first to begin, showing his soulbonds how it had to be done as he shared every single experience and detail he perceived and saw!
In the end, it took him more than two hours to finish the test, and it was only then that he noticed that both his soulbonds had already started with their own mastery test.
A few more hours passed in which Jason continued to share the inside of both orbs while guiding Spyro, who was struggling the most.
It was a newborn Spirit, after all, and Jason couldn't simply expect it to be perfect from the day it was born.
As such, once all three mastery tests were completed, he was not astonished about Spyro's Spirit mastery result.
[Mana mastery- Superior; passed!]
[Spirit mastery- average; failed!]
[Primordial energy mastery- above-average - passed!]
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})Both of his soulbonds had still not matured and were growing. This meant that their control over Spirit force and Primordial energy was still improving.
He might have failed one test, but even if that was already enough to make him fail everything, he would have at least found a way out of the third trial!
Nevertheless, the fact that Petri passed the test was already shocking to Jason because the Basilisk had perfectly employed the information he had been provided with.
As such, it had been possible for Petri to reach an above-average mastery in an extremely difficult test.
In the end, the three tests had evaluated the time required to fully untie the knots of intertwined strands of energy.
With that in mind, Petri might have finished the task barely sometime before he reached the maximum time limit, but that did not matter, having passed the test was the essential point!
Even Jason couldn't help but feel that it was tens of times more difficult than the most difficult mana mastery orb he had solved.
However, that was not exactly impossible to happen because the last time he had tested his mana mastery was on Argos at the liberation tournament!
As such, it was surprising that he received a Superior mana mastery at a test that was supposed to be extremely difficult to pass.
In the end, it would be frustrating to leave the Inheritance site right now without having met and reported everything to Jennifer. But, the worst-case scenario at least gave him the opportunity to leave, which was better than being imprisoned forever!
Because of that, he couldn't complain as he continued to reveal his Celestia aura and Stigma, unleashing them to the fullest extent.
Following that, he used the curses and his abyssal ability, only to add their combined force.
Even after doing all of the above the third trial was still requesting him to reveal more.
This was annoying, thus Jason simply revealed all his remaining capabilities.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})Fusing with Petri, he simultaneously summoned Solaris, and Byakur, only to release his entire mana that was not only much stronger than others but also four times more in quantity.
Yet, despite having shown everything, the trial was still not done and the robotic voice didn't resound in his mind.
Thus, he summoned Artemis, who was in her cocoon, followed by his entire soul world which he manifested inside the space around him.
Right now, he just wanted to pass the exam and leave.
As such, he revealed his soul world that had reached a size Jason didn't even know.
Jason only knew that it was gigantic, and still growing, which was why he had never bothered about figuring out the exact size.
Its size had never mattered to him, after all!
After the soul world had been summoned, the entire space around him twisted, because the small dome he was in was too small to accommodate the soul world in its entirety.
Because of that, Jason had to retract it a moment later, followed by allowing his soulbonds to leave with the soul world, where they returned to.
However, even after all of this, the trial was still not completed, which made him angry and confused at the same time.
"What else is there for me to show? It's not like I concealed anything...My eyes, the soul world, my soulbonds, the Celestia aura, all Stimas, my highly compressed prismarine crystal, the curses, what else is unique about me?!"
Utterly confused, Jason required almost a whole hour before he realised that he had forgotten something he had learned a long time ago.
'Don't tell me it's the pressure I comprehended??'
This shouldn't be the case, but Jason nonetheless released his pressure without using a single mana particle.
Yet, this didn't seem to be the right answer, only to give Jason a hint that caused him to frown.
"It cannot be the chaos attribute, or the soul fraction of the mysterious beast, right? The chaos attribute shouldn't be counted as my unique feature…."
