After he defeated the fiery puppet, Jason took a deep breath.
He was trying to calm himself by retracting the energies he had used up while fighting.
Following that, Petri and Artemis returned to the soul world while Solaris left his mana core.
As such, Jason was left alone inside the combat arena because the fiery puppet suddenly disintegrated.
At the same time, a new portal manifested further away from the other remaining puppets.
This portal was likely the way to reach the place that would be important for the next trial.
However, instead of moving forward towards the portal, Jason stayed where he was.
He didn't even think about entering it because he felt as if he had to defeat the other four puppets too!
With that in mind, he replenished his used up energy before approaching the next puppet, not wanting to waste more time than truly necessary.
The next puppet Jason chose as his opponent was the Spiral path puppet.
