[ Super Tar Sports ]
The building was ultra luxurious with all those floating hologram displays and large chunks of four floating areas in the four cardinal directions.
The group entered inside and went to the third floor—the Gold-rank Floor.
There were five floors in total for Bronze, Silver, Gold, King, and Emperor.
"Let’s start with Speed Dodge," Kenil said as he led the group into a corridor and arrived in a hall with two big circular rooms stretching 60 ters in diater.
The rooms had small trees and grass, with a clear patch in the center where Tars stood in a 5-ter radius circle and dodged hologram projections that generated from anywhere within 360 degrees around the Tar.
The public was watching both Tars dodge.
On the left side ground was a blue-haired young man, currently at Stage 4 of Speed Dodge, and the lavender-haired girl on the right side ground was on Stage 8.
"I registered you, John. Your turn’s next," Jagan, the blond-haired guy, said as he returned after going to the reception to register John’s na. "You ready, my boy?"
John instantly turned to him since Jagan approached from behind, causing Jagan to take a step back instinctively, right upon seeing John’s eyes.
John smiled and nodded as he patted Jagan’s shoulder. "I am ready. Thanks for the registration, my boy."
’What happened?’ the black-haired girl in the group, Brisa Duraian, the fourth peak Gold-rank Tar, asked as she saw that.
The others didn’t notice since they were looking ahead at the performance of those two Tars. Only she saw Jagan taking a step back, which looked like a natural reaction to sothing fearful.
’I don’t know, Brisa. I...don’t know.’
Of course, Jagan knew. He knew he felt fear that made him take a step back when he looked into John’s eyes.
John internally snorted as he turned to watch and ignored Jagan. ’Kiddo is addressing as my boy? Tsk.’
Despite being the only early-stage Gold-rank Tar, John had confidence in beating these two mid-stage Gold-rank Tars in the group.
At least, he could defeat this Jagan and that light-brown-haired girl called rinda, both of whom were mid-stage Gold-rank.
As for fighting Kenil, Reena, Brisa, and Davin, John was confident of being better than them, but they had higher soul power and physical stats than him, so it could be difficult to outplay them, especially if they had good bonding with one of their Pets, they could make their Physical stats reach upto 500 and Soul Power reach upto 2000 when using Soul Synergy.
Soon, the girl on the second room-ground was hit by an obstacle as a loud horn rang, declaring the end of her turn.
"Next, John Wicked. Co in, please."
"What? John Wicked?"
"Pfff..."
"What a na."
John leisurely walked towards the second ground’s entrance, stretching his arms and cracking his fingers.
After entering, he heard the sa female voice that had just announced him while also seeing a hologram of words.
[ The rules are simple. You have to dodge every obstacle while staying within the 5-ter radius circle. ]
[ Remove all items you have worn, and no other items are allowed to be used. ]
[ Dodging for 10 seconds successfully will increase the difficulty to the next stage. But the mont you are hit by an obstacle, your score will be finalized. ]
[ Got it? ]
"Got it."
John nodded as he put away his Sovereign-rank Armor set into his soul space, not showing it outside. This way, he could instantly equip it with a single thought.
A countdown of ten seconds appeared, and John was ready and raring.
Outside, Duraians t with people of the Jadelight clan as sparks of talk flew between them as usual, when two or more groups of eleven forces t each other.
"So if you all are here, then I suppose that random trash we are seeing for the first ti must be your guy."
"An early-stage Gold-rank, eh?"
"Mind your own business, Jadefart."
"As for who he is, I’m told by my father that if anyone from the eleven forces tries to be a smartass, I just need to tell them he is Mr. Sirius’s apprentice."
The people of the Jadelight clan looked at each other before turning to John as the countdown hit zero and a palm-sized orb shot at him at the speed of 5 ters per second, which John easily dodged by rely moving his head.
"So he is that guy..."
"Huh? You know him?" Kenil turned to Rodin Jadelight, the Jadelight clan’s strongest Gold-rank Tar.
"We don’t know this John Wicked, but we were told not to make trouble with Mr. Sirius’s apprentice."
"In fact, my cousin here went to that island and saw him," Rodin said as he turned to the black-haired girl in the group. "She was taken there by my father in the hope of making her Mr. Sirius’ apprentice."
The girl nodded. "Not many know, but the island that appeared in the sky and all the big wings getting busy was because of Mr. Sirius. He is so kind of rchant, and knows a lot of things, and has pretty aweso items."
"Well, let’s see how his apprentice does," Rodin said with a grin as he looked at John.
"He isn’t using anything except for his physical flexibility for now."
"Aaand he just entered stage 3. The obstacle’s speed is 10 ters per second now."
The size and shape of the obstacles also changed. The size beca half a palm bigger, and their shapes beca exotic instead of just spherical.
The obstacles were coming at him from all sides, two every second.
For John, this was just another opportunity to train sothing, and this ti, it was making his Blood into Bloodscript.
He had been training in this whenever he got ti over the past eleven days and knew he was very close.
As such, he had infused Bloodscript energy into his body by commanding Rexion while he tried to control it to make his body flexible in certain parts, helping him dodge.
Stage 4.
The obstacles’ speed increased to 13 ters per second, and three obstacles per second shot at him from different directions.
"Without Soul Eye, how long will he last?"
"If he has a vision-based soul technique or geno ability, he could dodge."
"But Soul Eye doesn’t cost anything, while using a technique or ability will cost him soul energy or stamina."
"He’s just here for the first ti. We aren’t expecting him to break records as soone who just entered Gold-rank."
Soul Eye was sothing that all Tars automatically awakened when their Soul Power reached 1000. In short, a peak Gold-rank Tar or higher would have Soul Eye—basically a mix of Inner Eye and Outer Eye that Chuthulos taught John.
So, John didn’t need to use his soul technique or geno ability yet. He could still see and sense everything around him with his outer eye as it floated above him, and even though it wasn’t free of cost, it only cost 10 soul energy to create it, and it could last for 1 minute, and he could recover 10 soul energy every ten seconds.
Stage 5
Stage 6
The hall was silent as people watched John dodging all the obstacles.
During Stage 6, John’s body started becoming strange. It beca like rubber, stretchable, and flexible, allowing him to dodge easily.
People were confused, but there was no one to answer them.
Indeed, John finally turned his Blood Mastery into Bloodscript Mastery.
’Let’s fcking go.’ John grinned as he saw four obstacles at a speed of 15 ters per second coming at him.
John’s body stretched as he found a perfect spot and shrank himself, dodging all four obstacles.
"What the hell is that exactly? Soul Technique?"
"But it doesn’t seem like he is using Soul Technique or Geno Ability..."
"It can’t be a freaking mastery of so attribute, right?"
"Kenil, what attributes does he have?"
Kenil wryly smiled. "You’ll find out soon."
Stage 7
Now, things beca difficult enough as John had to use his Space and Gravity mastery to dodge.
Because the number of obstacles coming at him beca six, and their speed beca volatile, as well as their shooting style.
The obstacles didn’t shoot at him simultaneously like before, but one by one with varying speeds, and if he dodged to the side to dodge an obstacle, the next obstacle would be changed to target him where he went, tracing his movent.
If those were real obstacles, John could use Space and Gravity to make them bypass him while he just stood in one spot, but this wasn’t possible here.
The obstacles were just projections, and not physical, as this Speed Dodge challenge was for Tars to improve their physical coordination, reaction ti, and dodging prowess.
When everyone saw that John’s dodging beca strange and super fast, they were dumbfounded.
"What’s going on?"
"The fuck is that?"
John had reduced gravity on him and also made six points of pull and push around him.
If he couldn’t physically catch up to the scores of peak Gold-rank Tars, he would use his Gravity and Space to make himself faster and give himself super burst dodges!
One mont, he would shoot his leg to the side and dodge, and instantly after that, he would actively push where he dodged, which would push him away from there, dodging an obstacle shooting at him there.
Not to ntion that his body also beca super flexible after evolving his Blood Mastery into Bloodscript Mastery!
Stage 8!
The number of obstacles remained the sa, but their speed and size increased further!
However, John was dodging them with ease just like before!
The reaction ti and explosive movent from push, pull, and low gravity on him made it feel like he was at the peak of Gold-rank, who had used Soul Energy to make their physical stats reach even further!
