Jason's kick caught not only Myne off guard, but also everyone watching the competition. It was beyond everyone's expectations.

"Hey, did anyone see that kick clearly? How did it happen?"

"I didn't see it very well. I only saw the Shield Hero's legs move like a scorpion's tail. Before I knew it, Myne was kicked away."

The surrounding soldiers and officials were discussing, while the adventurers who had chosen Motoyasu Kitamura and the others regretted their decision.

"Who told me the Shield Hero's strength wasn't enough?"

"The flexibility of his body and the power of that kick are definitely beyond ordinary people."

"That's right, Miss Myne was kicked away before she could finish her chant. She was instantly defeated."

"If I had known earlier, I would have chosen the Shield Hero."

Of course, the adventurers only whispered these thoughts. Although they regretted not choosing Jason, they knew it was too late and it would be unwise to upset the hero they were following.

As for Myne herself, she was covering her mouth with her hands, rolling on the ground in pain, screaming in agony.

"My Myne, are you alright?"

The king asked nervously and anxiously, looking at Jason as if he wanted to kill him.

As if the pain had become somewhat bearable, Myne sat up from the ground, shaking her hand away.

In the palm of her hand, she saw two bloody front teeth.

Myne's expression changed from panic to anger, and she immediately shouted: "¥##@!..."

But no one could understand what she was saying.

Her lips were swollen like two large sticks.

Coupled with the missing teeth, she couldn't speak clearly, and it looked comically ridiculous, causing many people around to stifle their laughter.

"Must $%@! Kill..."

Suddenly, Myne yelled and got up from the ground, drew her sword, and lunged directly at Jason.

Even if they couldn't hear her clearly, they could guess what she meant by her actions: "Bastard, I'm going to kill you!"

Myne was enraged. While she might be a skilled magician, her physical fitness was not much better than an average person. After all, no matter where you are, the profession of magician has never had much to do with close combat. Especially in this angry state, there was no technique to her attack, just a straightforward charge.

Jason took a step to the side without haste, easily dodging the attack.

Then he swung his shield and slapped it on the back of Myne's head like a frying pan.

"Boom!"

With a crisp sound, Myne's face hit the ground unceremoniously. She slid a few meters on the slippery surface and passed out immediately.

A visible large bump formed on the back of Myne's head.

At this moment, the audience was silent; you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone was unsure whether they should be amazed or laugh.

"Ding! The selection conditions are complete, and the 5% Garp template has been loaded successfully."

"Due to the characteristics of the Shield Hero in this world, the defense power of this template is increased by one-third, and the physical attack power is reduced by one-third. The host needs to upgrade or complete the selection to unlock. The unlocking conditions will be described in writing and transmitted to the host's mind."

Reaching 30% can unlock three of the six naval styles.

Reaching 50% can unlock all six naval styles.

Reaching 60% can unlock observation haki.

Reaching 80% can unlock the armed haki.

Reaching 100% can unlock the conqurers haki

Reaching 200% removes Shield Hero debuffs.

"No wonder... just now the system prompted to temporarily block the low attack power of Shield Hero. It turns out that while the Shield Hero profession has improved defense power, the physical attack power has been reduced. Without the system, it would really be a headache."

Hearing the system's voice, Jason slightly understood the challenging characteristics of the Shield Hero profession.

"Jason, you bastard, it's just a competition, did you need to go this far?"

Jason was still pondering when Motoyasu, who fancied himself the protector of women, rushed up and shouted carelessly to defend Myne.

"That's a beautiful woman, don't you understand beauty? As a man, don't you have any gentlemanly qualities?" Motoyasu glanced back at Myne's appearance as he spoke, then turned away in the next second. If Myne was truly pretty before, she certainly couldn't match that beauty now.

"That's right, it's really too much to hit a lady so hard."

"I agree."

Ren Amaki and Itsuki Kawasumi also chimed in.

Needless to say, the king rose up against the table, furious, and yelled, "Jason, you are against this country!"

All of a sudden, almost the entire crowd rose up in opposition.

From the perspective of others, Jason was in a helpless situation, like a small boat in the sea, about to be overturned by the waves at any moment.

However, Jason shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "Your Majesty, she is just an adventurer. This is also a competition approved by you. Besides, you agreed before that injuries are inevitable in competitions. How can you claim that after an adventurer is wounded, it suddenly becomes an act against the country? Perhaps you could explain, do you have any special relationship with this adventurer?"

"You... you..."

Facing Jason's question, the king could only point his finger at him, stuttering "you" for a long time, unable to say a word.

At this moment, the king truly felt as if he had eaten a mouthful of dirt, then chewed it with rotten garlic—it was extremely disgusting.

He couldn't tell Jason now that the adventurer he had beaten up like a punching bag was actually his daughter, the princess of this country, and that the purpose was to hide her identity in order to trick him.

"Although injuries are common in competitions, I still think you were too heavy-handed. You don't have the courage to be a true hero," said Motoyasu, who still had something to say, with unusual stubbornness.

"I don't have the stamina to be a hero? Heh..."

Jason smiled coldly: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect that adventurer to be so fragile. After all, I only used one-third of my power. All that talk about being a powerful magician sounds like a bluff. If I had known earlier that her strength was so average, I wouldn't have hit so hard."

In fact, Jason had just beaten Myne with all his strength, but he was now making excuses to justify himself.

"So, you mean the reason she was injured was all because she was too weak? Bastard, do you think I'm a three-year-old kid, so easy to deceive? You obviously went all out just now. What one-third of your power? Nonsense!"

Motoyasu grabbed Jason's collar emotionally and berated him loudly.

"Ding! Please choose!"

"1: Take a bite of Motoyasu Kitamura and reward 1% completion of the Garp template."

"2: Slap Motoyasu Kitamura hard, and reward 1.5% completion of the Garp template."

"3: Beat Motoyasu Kitamura to a bloody pulp, and reward 2% completion of the Garp template."
