Chapter 94: The Complexities of [Elemental Spirit Essence] (2/2)
Plus, Dean's technique only concerned foot speed and nothing else, where else, the [Sword Drawing Technique] was originally only for the sword but could be fully implemented into various actions like running, punching, or even jumping.
It was extremely versatile!
Having contrasted it with another technique, Jake gain a further understanding of the value of the technique. He knew there was absolutely no way that such a precious item could be given for free.
His left blue eyes ferociously froze as Jake wondered when next he would see the strange man that gave him the technique. He was definitely sure he would meet the man, and at that time, the man would demand something from him!
If Jake was the man, he would also do the same!
*Boom!*
Jake was brought back from his thoughts by the sound coming from the battle going on on the stage.
He looked down and saw Nico's gloves and Dean's sword meet which created another soundwave.
*Boom!*
By the time the two distanced themselves again, Nico was left painting due to the amount of energy he has expended.
Jake noticed that he coiled his fist and a spark of flame ignited on it.
He sighed at the sight of this, 'I see. He is betting it all on his fire attributed technique.'
However, Jake had to wonder whether Nico understood the energy cost of his technique.
There was a reason why most hidden stage cultivators still used [Spirit Essence]. It was because at their stage, while they could condense [Spirit Essence] into [Spirit Droplets] and use it as energy containers, the same couldn't be said for [Elemental Spirit Essence].
During his experimentation with [Elemental Spirit Essence], Jake found out that it was very hard to condense it into [Spirit Droplets].
Worst of all, any elemental attributed attack would rapidly expense [Elemental Spirit Essence].
It was not worth it, in the long run, to use your elements before entering [Realm-2] or even going further to [Realm-3 Stage-3].
Jake looked back at the fight and saw Nico send a fiery punch towards Dean.
The attack was devastating as it latched on to anything it touched, but Dean didn't dare to confront it and blinked away from the situation.
He waited for the fire to extinguish and dished out his attack, swiftly ending the match.
”Match 3, End!”
After the conclusion of the match, the referee called two more matches which were also good.
The fourth match was between Isabella Hayden and Jaya.
In the match, Jaya once again displayed her ability and utterly dominated her opponent, proving to be a strong obstacle for the other qualified ones.
The fifth match, between Joshua Vargas and Melania Aztec, was definitely surprising.
Contrary to the thoughts of the crowd, while under the pressure from a royal child. Joshua suddenly bursts up with energy that seemed inexplicable and defeated Melania.
After the end of the match, the day got to the evening, everything was finally clear.
The top five already climbed their way from the masses of participants, and all that was needed was for them to establish superiority between one another!
