Chapter 7: Admission Test-2
Stadium is 1000 acres with many platforms, so testing a billion people can be done with enough testing officers. The individual area is allocated for every thousands of participants and each area has one heart crystal and a monster in the cage. A woman with shoulder-length brown hair and brown eyes, wearing a formal blazer stood before the 1000s of students and started to explain the test.
"There are two rounds for the test today, First check your aptitude to the elements and fight against low-level rank monster one on one. It is not necessary to win, just show us all the fighting techniques and all these tests will lively telecast to the judges, so no bargain, no cheating....Is that clear?" she said not that loud or silent, it can clearly be heard by everyone.
Everyone just nodded their head and thought 'Does she thinks we can able to cheat against a high ranker' and the test started,
"Candidate-1, John, dual elements: Spark and Ice"
"Yes"
"Touch the Heart Crystal"
After touching it; the hollow inside slowly changed into sparkling and snow; some stars appeared.
"3-Star, check" the officer said.
"Candidate-2, Sky....."
.....
<Hours later>
"Candidate-1593, Eli, element: none"
"Yes"
There is no reaction from the crystal.
"Soulless"
"Yes" Eli answered.
"Ok....wait along with these two" she pointed to other soulless candidates.
"Candidate-159....."
....
"Now that I check and verified the details of all the individuals, let's check the skills and this time those who are not performing well will be eliminated and you can home straight. See the mic at the corner, judges will announce to you directly...So do your best" She smiled a little bit.
Some of the candidates thought 'Yes, I will show you how manly I am'.
She walked towards the cage and slowly opened the cage. Wolf-like Monster 3 Meters in height and 4 meters in length covered with grey fur, walked out of the cage and a collar attached to its neck. Saliva was dripping from its mouth and constantly looking at everyone.
/MANA BREATHING/
Eli walked toward the wolf and took his trident in his right hand.
"Grrrr"
The wolf run towards him ready to use its paw but he stood there as he muttered something.
"Flame Arts: 1st Form"
'sssshhhh'
The trident started to burn in yellow color and his eyes also changed to yellow. His body moved faster than a wolf's paw, he then bent slightly and used the trident's side tooth to vertically cut along the leg of the wolf as he jumped on its body.
And moved the trident horizontally placed between the jaws and he sat back of the wolf with two hands tightly gripping the ends of the trident.
'sssssss'
The flame started to hurt the wolf's mouth and it started to wriggle.
"Stop" The female officer stopped us.
'Breathe out'
Eli stopped his fire, eyes returned to normal, and jumped off the wolf.
"Color me suprised, Mr. Eli" she said with a small smile.
"Thank you, Madam" Eli said flatly.
"PASS" a mechanical voice said.
.....
Most of the candidates, either
"Out of 2500 candidates, 436 are qualified today and tomorrow we will conduct battle. So, be prepared see you lat..ohh...I forget to tell you, tomorrow will be a real battle, you may die but don't worry we can revive you without a cost so don't need worry, we can patch you up" she said with a dangerous smile.
Everyone shuddered at that smile.
"Also, only those who want to be a scholar, no need to worry, you can surrender if you want because you have written an exam. So just focus on studies" as she moved away.
Those who are scholars are sighs with relief.
