Primordial Dimensions

Shortly before the fight was about to end, even Ivan had become too confident in his victory.

What he hadn't expected was that Shane would have another tamed beast that was hidden from his sight.

The Lesser Starlet Fox had already been a nuisance, but the unknown being Ivan had seen for a quarter of a second, deep inside Shane, was on a whole new level.

Nevertheless, if he hadn't used his entire mana pool in the last attack, the spar might have not been over.

Unfortunately, this was a thing of the past and there was no use crying over spilled milk.

Shane was utterly exhausted when he retracted his mana and bloodlust-killing-intent.

However, he was still standing on the ground and helped Ivan walk outside of the combat arena.

The young man had collapsed, but it was not long before he had regained his senses..

"Your physique is extremely strong, but how can you have so much mana and two powerful tamed beasts?"

These were Ivan's first words upon regaining consciousness and Shane couldn't help but smile lightly when he heard them.

Nevertheless, he just shrugged his shoulders in response before they left the combat arena.

Everyone was eyeing him weirdly, but there were many prodigies who had already noticed something about his physique in the first match.

Thus, they were more surprised about the fox on his shoulder and the fact that he had been able to not only face but destroy Ivan's most powerful attack!

Even the prodigies with much higher mana purity than Shane were not confident in achieving that without anyone's help after utilizing the majority of their skills at once!

As such, they were glad that they didn't have to fight against Shane.

Yet, the most astonished was Commander Nuyra, who hadn't watched the battle, and it was only because of this that the final result made no sense to him!

'Is there something I don't know?'

He was confused, but despite that, he retained his composure.

By the time the remaining spars were concluded, less than three hours had passed, and the final seats for the basic race gathering were a weird mixture of prodigies that had a mana purity between 90%-95%!

Shane was an exception, but he was seen as one of the stronger contenders of the 10 seats after the others had witnessed his small battle with Ivan!

However, Commander Nuyra's next words astonished everyone.

"Now, everyone who has been disqualified has one chance to gain a seat! Every disqualified member has the right to challenge one of the 10 seats!"

This annoyed the 10 prodigies who had used their utmost efforts to gain the exclusive privilege to attend the basic race gathering.

Yet, Shane couldn't help but smile faintly because Frer had to fight against Miriam in the first round.

The final result had been obvious and Miriam had defeated Frer within five minutes.

Now that the Commander had given everyone a second chance, the final result could change, and those who had been lucky with their opponents before were the most annoyed.

Everyone was allowed to challenge someone, and not even five minutes had elapsed before the majority of prodigies had figured out who to fight and who they should avoid.

What Shane hadn't expected was that nobody challenged him, and Commander Nuyra was equally astonished about that which caused him to ask Miriam, who was coincidentally standing next to him.

"I have seen you talking to Shane Suro. Is there something special about this youth, other than his physique?"

Miriam, who was known to be among the three most powerful prodigies of the new generation looked intently at Shane, who caressed his tamed beast as if nothing was going on around him before she answered honestly.

"I am not aware of his current limit, but if he were to put his life on the line and utilize everything he has, even I would be unable to defeat him in the near future. At least, not without sustaining severe injuries!"

Baffled, the Commander just nodded his head without saying anything else as everyone had decided who to challenge.

Afterward, the sparrings started again, and a few hours flew by.

It was only at the onset of the next day that the final 10 seats had been determined.

The seats were much stronger on average than before, and the Commander nodded his head in satisfaction, ignoring the fact that Shane could be considered an anomaly.

Now it was time to determine the 10 prodigies' leader, which was an important position!

Yet, before the Commander could say anything, four young men and women immediately stated that they wouldn't participate in sparring against each other to determine the leader, fully aware that their strength was not at par with the others.

Among those four prodigies was Shane, who thought that it was useless to select the leader as it would not determine who the strongest in a life-and-death fight would be.

However, he didn't say anything to them, and it was only when he noticed that Miriam was standing next to him that he said confidently,

"Soon, I'll claim what you've promised me!" 

Miriam just nodded her head replying that he should give his best before the final fights concluded.

Because there were two prodigies missing, Miriam had to fight against another prodigy with a mana purity of 94%.

While he certainly was a strong opponent, the young man didn't have something unique like Miriam who had the Phoenix fire affinity.

Thus, his strength was not at par with Miriam, and she was able to defeat the young man, who had given his everything.

Now that everything was finally concluded, Shane wanted to leave in order to use the remaining 20 days before their departure to train his physique.

The best course would be a perfect Expert physique, but it was evident that this was impossible to attain in such a short period.

However, Shane could still use [Tier-2 (Extraordinary)] nutrition solutions which might allow him to approach the 6th Expert stage with his perfect physique.

Shane was about to take their leave when Miriam invited them to eat something in one of the most popular restaurants.  Shane couldn't help but think that it had been ages since he'd tasted something delicious.

As such, he agreed to Miriam's offer, while Aisha and Frer did the same.

The Valkyries were currently completing certain system missions that mostly prevented them from accepting outside help and both Aisha and Frer would be in their way as they were considered as outside help.

In the end, the four entered the 'Golden Dragon' restaurant whose interior was filled with antique furniture, while the aroma of delicious food wafted through the air.

Shane had been looking at what kind of mana awakening his soul bound world should undergo, however, now that he smelled the fragrance of meat and the mana fluctuations radiating from the dishes that were brought to the tables next to him, he closed the system's holographic screen.

It was not long after that they were directed to a private room Miriam had rented.

The dishes they ordered only a short time later were more expensive than Shane expected, but Miriam told them that they could order whatever they wanted.

As such, Shane ordered a steak of a beast he had never heard of before.

Yet, when the dish arrived and he took the first bite, Shane couldn't help but exclaim.

His body was heating up, and it was as if he had received a major boost in certain characteristics.

"My mana circulation speed is increasing and I can move around more mana than usual! If I were to eat this before cultivating, I would have to  less effort to receive great results!" 

The three girls just smiled, without saying anything as they ate their own lunch.

'I should definitely hire cooks for my Astral Starlight faction! They might be able to further increase their efficiency'
