Jason didn't plan on offending anyone.
However, he didn't want to waste his time either.
Thus, it would be much better if he were able to figure out how strong the messengers of the other races truly were.
None of them had an extremely high cultivation base.
It only meant that they were not so important individuals in the rows of the foreign races.
This indicated that they would simply keep pushing forward the same demands over and over again, without being able to change them in the slightest.
Meanwhile, if one had to defeat him or someone from the Yinar race with the same cultivation base, this would change.
Being a messenger of the foreign race meant that they were at the mercy of those who had contracted them.
They could be forced to defeat someone, meaning that they were required to be the Elite of the humans the foreign races contracted.
Even if that was the case, the foreign races would have to think properly about their demands.
After all, the other foreign races might send out the strongest soul contracted Agran in order to have ensure victory against the Yinar they would fight.
Only later would they be allowed to openly express their will and the demands of their own race.
These demands would have to be much smaller too because the times at which one was able to say something in front of others would drastically reduce than it was currently the case.
Pressuring the messengers and the foreign races was a way of ensuring that the precious time of the powerhouses of the Yinar race was not wasted.
Additionally, it also ensured the progress of bringing together the surrounding settlements of the soul contracted Agrans!
Jason knew that his idea was not yet refined, but the essence of his idea was certainly great.
Changing the question he had previously asked into a proper idea was not difficult, and when Elder Ben noticed what Jason had in mind, he looked at him for a moment.
"Are you sure that you're not a strategic person? You seem to know how to craft a proper plan considering what you said just a while ago!"
Jason understood what Elder Ben wanted to say, but he didn't feel like that.
Rather, he had other things on his mind than to waste his time, which he voiced out without any hesitation.
"It's not like that…I just hate wasting my time on unnecessary things. And I know how some of the races that infiltrated Argos acted. They're stubborn and don't budge, even in the face of death. It leaves you with no option but to pressure them, or they'll come back without changing their demands!"
Shrugging his shoulders, Jason just felt the need to fight.
His hands were itching to attack, even more so because everyone thought that they could throw hostile gazes at him as if they had a chance against him.
It had been a long time since Jason felt prideful since he knew he had a long way to go.
But, owing to his soulbonds that altered not only his body by being connected with him but also his mind, he was starting to feel more pride about certain things than it was the case before.
One of such things was his combat prowess, which was something he was confident about.
His confidence was reflected in his body language and behavior as well.
Elder Ben made no mistake in realizing that Jason meant what he said.
This intrigued the Elder, and the more he thought about it, the better Jason's idea sounded.
And that was not only for today but for all gatherings.
After all, it was possible for him to avoid wasting his time, while his race's elite would be able to learn more about the strength of the Agrans that had been soul contracted by other races.
He believed that this was quite important, which made him agree to what Jason had asked.
"Alright, I let you fight everyone, and only those messengers that can defeat you will be allowed to join the gathering… I have had enough of them either way, so lecture them properly with a good beating and put some sense into them."
While looking at Elder Ben, Jason was unable to hide his smile because it was almost as if he was looking forward to seeing him thrash the messengers black and blue.
In the end, the Yinar race was known for being placid, but the messengers' antics had gotten on Elder Ben's nerves since the last few weeks.
And it was not the first time that the messenger gatherings took that long. Rather, it was normal for them to take a few months and keep going around in circles without finding a proper solution, which was the most annoying.
Taking longer to find a great solution was fine, but ending everything after months without one was just a disgrace.
It was the most frustrating for Elder Ben, who could have cultivated or done something different in these months.
Time was the essence of cultivators, and wasting it was not something any Cultivator wanted to do, even if their long lifespan easily allowed them to live for thousands of years without issue!
Somehow, Jason could understand the feelings of Elder Ben, and he didn't even want to know how often the messenger gathering events had been held, or why they hadn't done anything against them beforehand.
After all, it was not like Elder Ben and the others could obstruct the messengers from holding the gathering in their city.
This might cause many bloody discussions, but in the end, it was not really the Yinar race's responsibility to prevent a fight from occurring.
However, Jason was misunderstanding the Yinar race in this aspect.
By providing the basic minimum of support to all of the messengers, they not only prevented them from fighting each other until death, but at the same time, they revealed their superior strength to them.
This included their resources too as they clearly demonstrated how generous they were by helping a few Agran to quickly become stronger in an extremely short period of time.
One of these individuals was the Agran using the spatial affinity, who Jason had encountered in front of the city.
He had been at the Specta stage, and was certainly an Agran, probably one of the only ones that were strong enough to reach such a high cultivation base in a short period of a few hundred years.
In the end, there were a few more reasons for the Yinar race to support the messengers of the foreign races.
But the years they had already wasted with the messenger gathering events were certainly not beneficial for any of them.
After all, most gatherings ended in debates or heated discussions without reaching a common consensus.
And, even if a proper solution was figured out, nobody was able to abide by it.
Because of that, the Yinar race had often planned to do something against the soul contracted Agrans.
They were simply too annoying, but unfortunately enough, there were other, far stronger opponents they had to pay attention to. Furthermore, the soul world of the Agran race was simply too useful to leave behind!
With that in mind, Elder Ben didn't hesitate to spend a few minutes to come up with a proper plan before he revealed it to everyone.
"Today will be the last day of the normal messenger gathering events. From tomorrow onwards, every gathering event that goes on for longer than one week will have special rules.
If nobody wants to start negotiating with the other messengers about their demands and what they can offer others, we will enact one simple rule after the first gathering week is over!
Every messenger will be requested to fight against one of the Yinar race's elite, who is at the same cultivation base as the fighting messenger.
If the messenger loses, he will be requested to leave the gathering, and return to his settlement. If he or she comes out victorious, he or she can stay.
However, if we see no substantial change after the first week, and we end up wasting another week without the start of proper negotiations, another fight will be initiated!
Please inform your masters that we want to help everyone to reach a consensus, but wasting our…MY precious time shouldn't become a habit, RIGHT?!
With that in mind please fight against Jason, and only those who can defeat him are allowed to stay.
The other will have to leave!"
