Jerald took it easy on Shang. After all, Jerald was far more powerful than him.

For now, Jerald decided to emulate a normal Mid High Mage. He simply slowed his movements and used less Mana for his Spells.

Sure enough, Shang had shown incredible power. In fact, Jerald had to do his best not to increase his power by more since Shang kept pushing him back at frightening speeds.

The new techniques Shang had come up with in the last 50 years were especially terrifying. Just the fact that Shang had created such an effective technique against Mages in his Colossal Sword State was impressive.

Jerald also felt the power of Shang's attacks on his Mana Shield.

Initially, it wasn't anything too special, but as Shang entered his Great Sword State, the power ramped up significantly!

And when Shang entered his Saber State, the fight had completely changed yet again.

But the most terrifying state was the Long Sword State. At least for Mages.

Shang had dealt significant damage to Jerald's Mana Shield in that state, and he even had to stop Shang before he completely ran out of Mana.

Shang had managed to break the Mana Shield of a Late High Mage, although Jerald had been fighting with the strength of a normal Mid High Mage.

At that point, there was no more doubt.

Shang had definitely reached a level where he could kill an average Mid High Mage.

That was a jump of two levels!

Against a Mage!

Back when Shang had been in the second trial, he had come to a draw with the powerful Early True Mage.

Fighting against an average Mid True Mage should have been about as difficult, maybe a bit easier.

But this time, Shang had been on the offensive several times, and he could have probably progressed even faster if he wasn't testing out several of his new techniques.
