Quite some time passed and Jasons face was filled with bumps and bruises when Greg explained his weaknesses.

"To put it simple, your foundation is lacking because you practiced a tierless martial art without properly training your body.

Even if your proficiency with the Azure feisty ape technique reached the third stage also called experienced mastery, once your body can't follow your train of thoughts, you're doomed.

I can see in that your eyes can easily follow my movements and predict where I will hit you but your body is too slow with its more cumbersome movements.

As a recommendation, I would give you the tip to change your martial art technique as the first thing to do.

A modified technique is not as strong as an original, because some important sequences have to be changed to adjust a weaponless martial art into one with weapons.

Later, I can look into our storage, if we have a gradeless basic foundation dual-dagger mastery martial arts technique, if not, we can purchase it.

Furthermore you should use weights while training every muscle in your body!

Try to maximize your workout..it may save your life later!"

Jason was amazed about Gregs seriousness which he hadn't seen before and he nodded full of ambition even if his whole body hurt.

During his spar with Greg, he noticed that he was really weak and his foundation couldnt be considered good.

Wondering how he had killed five-star wild beasts, Jason was thankful for his luck and other advantages.

Furthermore, Jason noted that his body adjusted itself slowly while sparring with Greg and maybe if he continued to spar, he might be getting stronger really fast..

Unfortunately Greg was also behind others in his mana core rank which he had to catch up fast, so he wouldn't have much time for Jason.

"Thank you, GREG!"

Jason said happily full of gratitude when he noticed a few strong mana fluctuations

Turning around, he could see nine magic circles in front of Malia, Greg, and Gabriella

In front of Malia appeared two magic circles, one large dark red flickering and a blue shining magic circle.

Out of the blue shining magic circle appeared a miniature humanoid girl with wings on her back and blue hair, while out of the dark red flickering magic circle jumped a pitch-black colored horse with a dark red fire as its mane and. Above its hooves were also flames enveloping a small part of its legs and when Jason saw its eyes, he got goosebumps because they were pitchblack.

`This fairy is cute and probably at the peak of the evolved rank but what the h**l is wrong with this horse?? Is that a Nightmare-horse? And it's still at the unblemished rank only slightly apart from entering the magical rank? Not bad....but still scary!!`

Jason asked himself, shivering slightly when a few beasts jumped out of the magic circles in front of Mark.

Mark had three magic circles in front of him while one was a small light-red one, a large red heat-hazed one, and a small faint green one that was even smaller than Artemis magic circle.

Out of the small magic circle flew a small bat with its miniature stature. While its body was black, the eyes and ears were in a jade color and it looked around, listening to the sounds, before it jumped towards Mark.

The small light-red magic circle summoned a red-colored monkey with a brown belly and a small amber-colored horn in the middle of the forehead, while a ten-meter-long python with a burning tale appeared inside the large red heat-hazed magic circle.

`Marks first contracted beast was a peak awakened ranked amber horned monkey? And the other two are a magical ranked mutated miniature bad and a magical ranked Inferno-Python? WOAH!` Jason knew that Mark contracted good beasts but that his second soulbond was already a magical beast which was definitely above average on Astrix

`Maybe he had to wait a long time until he got enough soul power to bind this magical beast! He is really patient`

But Jason knew that Mark had used up all his slots for his soulbonds and it looked like the potential of his bonds were already used up.

Mark could only increase his strength by increasing his mana core rank and not by contracting another beast.

Jason knew Gabriella was stronger than Mark and the four magic circles in front of her proved him right. There were two purple magic circles enveloped in lightning, while the other two magic circles looked somewhat gentle and nice.

Out of the purple magic circles jumped a 15 meter long python and a large wolf enveloped in lightning.

Jason was more expectant on the other two magic circles and a somehow familiar beast appeared inside the small white green-whitish magic circle.

It was a plant looking like a bell while out of the larger whitish magic circle appeared a calm white curved horned sheep.

Jason had heard about healing beasts and one of the more common ones was a sanctification bellflower which was a late evolved sentient plant that is also categorised into the beast section. The Wolf is also called Vicious Thunderwolf and is a late unblemished beast while the Thunderpython looked somehow similar to the Inferno-Python while both of them are at the magical rank.

But Jason had not heard anything about the sheep he could see but he knew that Gabriella had an affinity to only two elements, healing and thunder.

As such the sheep needed to have something to do with healing and Jason called it

`Unveiling curved horned sheep`.

It looked like this sheep had even the strongest mana core rank and it was most probably at the peak of the magical rank.

While looking at the beasts appearing out of the magic circles and strolling around, Jason concluded one thing

Malias soul power was extremely huge that she could form a bond with a peak-evolved beast as her first contract which was even a fairy

This was extremely rare because not only are fairy rare, but also very willful with a high soul energy and great affinity.

Furthermore, it could even reach the unblemished rank according to the color radiating from it.

After that she contracted a second soul beast which was the Nightmare-horse in front of him.

A Nightmare horse is a magical ranked beast and it needed a ton of soul energy to control.

Jason was amazed to see Malia having two strong soulbond at her age.

He wasn't sure how many bonds she could form or how many elements she had as affinity but `Water and Fire` were 100% among them as he already saw the transmuted mana within her.

Jason continued his conclusion with Mark and Gabriella.

Marks soul had the affinity of fire with two beasts and maybe a physical soul with one beast, which was the miniature jade bat.

Either this was the case or Marks second affinity had something to do with sound but Jason had never heard of something like that so he thought it might be a double soul-awakening with small-sized souls.

Gabriella had space for four soulbonds and the affinity for thunder and healing that were both rare, while a healing ability was one of the rarest abilities and highly demanded in hospitals, prestigious schools with many combat injuries, and hunting groups even more so.

Mark and Gabriella's soulbonds looked like they were all at their racial limit and Jason wondered if there was a chance for them to evolve as his mana eyes didn't seem to work properly since he thought about his purification theory.

The only thing Jason knew was, that the radiating color he saw, was equivalent or even better than the newest potential tests developed by the best scientists.

Online there were millions of threads about methods to force a evolution for beasts and Jason had also heard about occupations called beast developers or also called Beast Creators because they could force to evolve into a superior race with the right solution and ratio of magical ingredients/materials.

These beast creators had some restrictions while evolving beasts but it was still possible for them to force an evolution while the beast had to stay within its tested potential.

Beast creators were humans that knew a lot about beasts and their possible evolution paths. Someone might say it is easy to know about all that but rather than that it is extremely difficult to know which magical materials are needed to cause an evolution in addition to the ratio in order to prevent damaging the beast temporary or even permanent.

After evaluating a beast's potential, these creators would have to pick a suitable evolution path that was within its potential range.

Concocting a special reagent with the researched magical ingredients could increase the chance for a beast to evolve but there were not many known recipes and only experimenting with beasts could provide more information.

For these experiments, many beasts would be needed and it was easier for low ranked beasts to be experimented with than high ranked beasts.

This was also the reason for the increased price for low-ranked beasts with high potential as some of them would be used by the government to test certain evolution reagents.

These beasts creators had to work within the range of a beast's potential and there was still not a single public known case where a beast broke into a higher rank without having the required potential.

Jason tried to do his own research about these things but his access was limited to only a few online threads which didn't need a special rank for access.

Looking at the families overall soul-awakenings, Jason was amazed.

Greg and Malia seemed to have much better soul awakenings than their parents but even theirs should be at 2 or 3 stars, which is a good amount above average.

Each soulbond was happy to be outside and they ran around, played with each other or annoyed one another and everyone was happy looking at them.
