Apparently, Kinra Island would always resurface in an extremely dangerous territory filled with many ferocious beasts that even some beings at the Specta stage feared.

As such, it was required to have someone strong enough nearby, who could protect them if something were to occur.

Jason had already realised it the moment the City Lord had said that she would take them with her.

Because it was necessary to be guided to the entrance of the Island by a being at the Specta stage, only a small number of mostly powerful individuals would be able to enter it.

Amongst those individuals, the majority were likely to be the Specta stage powerhouses' disciples, which was what everyone clearly understood.

Owing to that, Jason was not sure if it was really logical for him to accept the City Lord's proposal, even if she were to hand out a Heaven-ranked manual.

Meanwhile, the others had heard of the Immortal Eye before, which made them frown as they were unsure of what to say.

Within the last millennia, there had only been a few individuals who were able to procure the Immortal Eye, and because of that, the cadets knew that the City Lord was playing with fire.

However, this shouldn't matter for the cadets because if they were able to receive the opportunity to enter an Inheritance site, they may as well try looking out for an Immortal eye.

That shouldn't be much of a problem as they could at least give it a try.

As such, they were willing to accept the City Lord's proposal.

The opportunity to enter Kinra island was already great enough for them to ignore such a minor inconvenience, and the fact that they received additional support in form of techniques spoke volumes about Luna's need for the said item.

Yet, the very same reason made Jason feel confused.

'Why does she need the Immortal Eye, right now, right after we have been attacked? What's even the use of this object?'

Jason doubted that the Immortal Eye had nothing to do with the attack on the manor, but he didn't say anything.

Instead, he waited for the other cadets to agree to the City Lord's proposal.

After that, they were able to choose one of the Heaven-ranked techniques.

Picking the right one was not difficult because most of the cadets already had a permanent cultivation technique, which forced them to continue using it.

If they wanted to change the cultivation technique, they would have to destroy their entire cultivation, and start from scratch.

This was not something they would want to do, not when their cultivation base had allowed them to receive the opportunity to be able to enter Kinra island in the first place

After the other cadets were done, they looked at Jason, who was yet to make his decision.

However, rather than saying something, he remained silent as he contemplated his options.

In the past, he had acted recklessly, and if he were to have the same mindset, Jason would immediately accept the City Lord's proposal.

There was not much for him to lose if he were to increase his strength in the next two months.

Yet, that was exactly what caused Jason to halt in his tracks.

'How much can I improve my strength in just two months?'

Jason was confident that his combat prowess would improve a lot, but the difference between owning one prismarine crystal vs. two was already extremely vast.

With that in mind, Jason had realised that a single solidified prismarine crystal was roughly equal to owning anywhere between 20,000 to 25,000 liquefied mana drops.

This was something Jason could attain without too many difficulties, but twice, or triple that amount was not something he could easily achieve.

Doubling his strength in two months was already close to impossible, but reaching the peak Low stage of the Prismar stage's first threshold with three solidified prismarine crystals was not only impossible without a miracle, but it also wouldn't help Jason.

Everyone would be stronger than him, even if he could make the impossible possible, and there was only one state in which he would be able to defeat someone with a much higher rank.

Either, he would have to actively use external means like the Chaos attribute that didn't belong to him, or he would have to forcefully unseal his bloodline until it would almost tear his body apart!

Both the options were extremely bad because he didn't want to harm his body.

As such, he was about to reject the City Lord's proposal in order to walk the safe path, for the first time in a very long period, before Luna suddenly added something, out of the blue.

"Why are you already thinking of rejecting my proposal before even looking at the technique?"

This made Jason lift his head, only to look straight into the City Lord's eyes as two manuals appeared in front of him.

They were both Heaven-ranked cultivation manuals!

Jason didn't expect that the others would not choose the cultivation manuals, but after thinking about it again, that made sense to some extent.

'I guess they never hoped to get a Heaven rank technique, and thus chose a permanent Terra-Peak, or even -Superior cultivation technique?'

With his eyes glued on the manuals, he picked one to lightly skim through it.

However, not even ten minutes passed before he closed it once again with a frown on his face.

Picking the second manual suspended in the air, Jason read it as well, and similar to the first time, he closed it, barely within ten minutes.

With a deep sigh, he returned both manuals to the City Lord, only to state,

"I'm sorry, but it looks like I have to reject your proposal. With these cultivation techniques, I would be restricted to use only those two on a permanent basis... I want to be able to switch my techniques later!

Without a suitable technique, I won't be able to reach the combat prowess I have to achieve in order to survive on Kinra Island, even if I give my best..."

This caused the City Lord to stare at him in disbelief as she blurted out,

"Now you are picky too?! What is wrong with you and Jennifer, do you guys think we are at a charity event? How can you two be so weird?

As if you would easily find a Lunar ranked cultivation technique!!"

Looking at Jennifer, she simply grinned lightly, for the first time since the incident. Noticing the grin, Jason decided to reply with a smirk

"I'm pretty sure that even the Lunar ranked cultivation techniques won't limit me...I'm greedy you know!"

'And I know just how powerful my father's race is!!' He left the line unspoken while continuing to look at the City Lord as if he had nothing else to say.

Yet, only a moment later, Luna tried to calm herself as she turned towards the cadets.

"You guys can start preparing yourself! Jennifer will take you back to the hidden mountain. She will also accompany you guys in two months when it's time to depart!"

With that being said, Jennifer and the cadets were excused as they walked out of the main hall.

Jennifer was confused, but she had to train the cadets that were impatiently waiting to practice in their new techniques.

As such, she threw a concerned gaze at Jason before she finally left the hall.

'Nothing bad will happen, right?'
