The fight evidently ended with Captain Jenkins' loss, as he powerlessly placed his pair of bloodied hands on the ground. 

But, even though Tristan had finally came out as the winner in the duel between the two of them, Captain Jenkins still refused to tell him about his access codes. The man, after all, no longer had an ounce of belief that Tristan would meet the end of his bargain.

Which was, unfortunately for him, true.

Tristan held onto his values in life, where he would only bargain when two parties had something of the same value. Now that Captain Jenkins and his men had already surrendered, taken down, and became his captive, he no longer had the need to obligate the other party's whim as he was the one who had the upper hand.

Even though the access code could be an important resource for the future, Tristan really could not guarantee the safety of the other party's men at the moment. After all, his analysis of these people's strength and ability had to come first and foremost.

Although his duel was over and Captain Jenkins had lost against him, the day was still not over for Tristan. He ordered his men to continue on, jumping into their own fight. Not only Ghrall, he also forced Commander Sterling, Commander Cecilia, and even Vain the Night Owl who just got healed to enter and fight each of the space knights and officers on the scene.

The fights between the members of two opposing parties were carried out under Tristan and Captain Jenkins' eyes. The former was elated, while the latter was miserable.

When the fight was remarkable or satisfactory in his eyes and he felt the other party had not yet shown their true skill, Tristan would decide to spare him/her. On the other side of the spectrum, he would be merciless and end them if he decided they had no further uses and were unworthy to be kept alive.

Captain Jenkins could only sit there and be tortured as he watched how each of his subordinates died and killed by Tristan. As for Tristan himself, he would of course be joyous as each death meant more Blood Essence for him to be extracted.

At the end of the day, Tristan collected the data from the scanner in the room, which had a similar function to the bracelet that he took from Pio. He then cross-referenced the information he received from the spaceship database and the data Sigfried gave him to come up with a complete, detailed power level of the other party's side.

From it, Tristan discovered that the lowest rank in their ranks was the non-magic combatants, space trooper.

[Space Trooper]

[Battle power 50-60]

This class of troops were all well-trained individuals, where any of them had strength comparable to that of silver adventurers in Arcadia, but with much better skill. 

None of those who were categorized as space troopers had magic talent, but all of them had an implant on them - the implant that was planted in their brain to increase their memory capability and decrease their needs for sleep.

Among them, there were some people who were classified as specialists; the engineer, the medic, the cook, the gun operators, and so on. However, most of them still consisted of combatants. If Tristan had to use the terms used back on Earth, the space troopers' arrangement was pretty much the same as the US Navy.

The second rank was what Tristan encountered on his first day in this world, the space knight.

[Space Knight]

[Battle power 80-100]

The space knights were the chosen elites of the trooper, the elitest of the elite within its rank. Those who were chosen to join the ranks of space knights then would be added a total of eight more implants to their body, to increase their overall strength and be capable of operating the power armor.

When they had reached a certain level of contribution, they then could be promoted to a squad leader and received the upgraded version of the implants, which would further increase their already impressive strength.

[Space Knight Squad Leader]

[Battle power 100-120]

Those numbers of battle power were measured without the improvement brought by their power armour. If they had equipped their armour fully armed with high-level weapons and technological devices, these space knights were able to match the strength of the orcs and the firepower of the elves.

Then, the leader and the strongest among the ranks was the Marshal. Unfortunately, as Tristan killed the man and lost the chance to analyze the other party for good, he had no real data of this existence called Marshal. 

What he knew was only their advanced black-colored power armour as well as the fact that Marshal was the space knight who had managed to reach their maximum physical limit and received the [Unbreakable Body].

[Unbreakable Body], trait that one received when they had broken through a certain threshold. The term the Arcadian used for those who had this trait was Guardian, while the human empires called them Combat Saint.

Next, was the magic-based combatants. 

The human empires used the term, acolyte. The acolyte were further separated into nine different ranks, where each rank was exponentially stronger than the one below it. Those who reached the highest rank of nine were considered as saint-level acolytes.

[Space Acolyte], were mostly acolytes who had limited talent and were unable to breakthrough into the rank 9 or saint-level acolyte. Although that was the case, most of the space acolytes, like the girl who was captured together with Sigfried, were rank 8 acolytes. In short, they were still a force to be reckoned with in spite of their 'lack' of talent.

The average stats of a space acolyte was stated as below.

[Battle power 100+]

[Spirit force 250-500]

When they reached the spirit force milestone of 500 and broke through to rank 9, the space acolytes then could apply for the officer position within the army. An officer was quite a prestigious position, higher than the space knight squad leader.

The last but not the least, the captain. They were magus-level combatants, someone with similar power to rank 5 wizards in Arcadia. These people stood at a completely different level altogether, especially when they reached the magus level where they would also gain the similar kind of [Immortal Body].

Just like Janus's [Immortal Body], these people could regenerate their bodies continuously as long as their spirit cores weren't destroyed.

However, Tristan discovered something odd when he compared the data he gathered from fighting Captain Jenkins, a magus, and the strength Commander Cecilia, a rank 5 wizard which supposedly to be the same level as the former, displayed. They were too far apart in difference.

Tristan could tell that other than their similarity in the possession of [Immortal Body], Cecilia's spirit force and battle power were simply incomparable to that of Jenkins. This was the reason why it was easier for him to defeat Janus, than this Captain Jenkins.

He guessed that this phenomenon should have something to do with the other party's way of cultivation as well as the limitation of spells on their own side. After all, the Arcadian had no advanced spells, such as the [Hell Fire] or [Sonic Blade].

The database Tristan collected from the spaceship told him that the magus level itself had three different stages. The first stage was known as the Crescent Moon magus, the second stage was called the Half Moon, while the last stage was the Full Moon.

Captain Jenkins, as strong as he was now, he was only at the Crescent Moon stage - the lowest of the magus. And apparently, some space cruisers could be led by a Half Moon, or even a veteran Full Moon magus.

All in all, the comparison and cross reference between the data confirmed and strengthened the fact that the Arcadian was still very, very, very lacking in the grand scale of things.

Currently, from what the data showed, Tristan discovered that Arcadia only had 5 magus-level figures. Cecilia of Starlight, Wizard Faros, and Commander of the First Kingsblade that he still hadn't met yet were all considered as Crescent Moon magus, and the weakest within the stage.

As for Callan and Tobias who were both able to cast rank 7 spells, they could be recognized as Half Moon magus. The other person Tristan knew, but not of Arcadian, was the ruler of Vanyar Kingdom, Queen Leena.

Meanwhile, the rest of the commander and senior mages of the Arcadian Kingdom were all saint-level existences.

With this compilation of data, Tristan created the comprehensive list of power levels of all living things he had encountered.

From the weakest to the strongest, the list was stated as below.

{Orc Grunt - Silver Adventurer - Arcadia Knight - Space Trooper - Orc Champion - Gold Adventurer - Space Knight - Orc Warchief - Combat Saint/Guardian - Saint-Level Acolytes/ High-Stage Rank 4 Wizard - Orc Overlord - Magus}

This list would be updated as Tristan encountered more living things in the vast universe.

Now, considering that at least half a dozen space cruisers would arrive at this planet in two weeks, Tristan could roughly see the force required to face them.

Yes, he definitely needed more magus-level combatants.
