Exam

When the women told them the benchmark that the students needed to reach they all got really confident.

"This test is too easy," one student said. Another said "who cant get a power level of 500? I got a power level of 900 when I was just 10."

The women then told everyone to shut up and pay attention. "You will have 5 tests to complete. Only 3 will relate to your power level while the others are more related to the individual."

Most of the students already knew this as their parents told them the about the test. Everyone except for Dakota, since he didn't have any parents and only appeared in this world about 3 hours ago he had no idea what to expect. Luckily the women continued with her explanation.

"The first test will be a strength test. This test will determine how much force you can put out into your opponents, abilities are allowed on all of the tests. The second test will be a agility test. We will see how good you are at dodging attacks and you will complete a sprint of 100 meters to gauge your speed. The 3rd test will be defense test. You will be taking damage until you fall to your knees or fall unconscious. The 4th and 5th test will be a test to find your species and a test to find your ability. You will be told your ability if we have had a person in the past with that ability and logged it in our database."

The women then stopped talking and we began the test. Most of the students got a power level of between 3100 and 3500. Then it was the silver haired girls turn. The instructor called her Lisa Silverking. As it turns out they are the second most powerful family in the world, only under the royal family.

When she did the strength test she got a score of 14000. This was due to the fact she was one of the only people of this age group to have a ability. On the agility test she got a score of 12000. This was due to her lasting 10 seconds while dodging and 2 seconds for the sprint. On the defense she got a score of 23000 as she was able to withstand a ball thrown with 3000 pounds of force being thrown at her. On the species test she turned out to be a high elf, making her one of the most powerful species on the planet. Her ability turned out to be called 'Enhance'. As its name suggests she can enhance her body to a certain degree. This gave her a total power level of 16300 making her by far the strongest in the group.

Next up was Gory's turn. On the strength and agility test he got 8000 in both. He was able to do the sprint in 7 seconds. On the defense test he got a score of 22000. Everyone was surprised at this result because it was almost as high as Lisa's. He achieved this because he was constantly able to heal himself in between hits. His species was Druid like he was told. When he took the ability test he didn't get an answer. He knew what his ability was and his parents told him this as well. He then told the lady that his ability was called 'Support'. It allows him to heal himself and others and buff others strength or agility. Although he can't do this to himself. He had a power level of 12700. This was a much higher score than he thought he would get.

Finally it was Dakota's turn. He had been dreading this moment since he first found about the test. He doesn't perform well under pressure. On the strength test he stood next to the machine. It looked like a box, although it had a mechanism inside it that could determine the amount of force applied. He then concentrated as hard as he could and hit the box. He stood there waiting as the machine cycled through numbers until it stopped at 1300. It was the lowest in class and everyone laughed at his low score. The instructor told everyone to calm down and for Dakota to resume the test. On the agility test he got a score of 2400 as he was able to dodge for 5 seconds and complete the sprint in 12 seconds. On the defense test he got a score of 1700. This gave him a power level of 1800. This made him the weakest in the group and he knew it was not good. He was regretting the next tests.

When he went to take the species test he didn't even want to see what he got so he looked away. He was surprised when the instructor told him to take it again. When he took it the second time he looked at what he got. He was nervous and didn't know what he would see. He half thought that it would say he didn't even have a species, so he was shocked when he read the machine and it said Demon. The instructor was so surprised that she didn't know what to do. She then wrote something down on her clipboard and told Dakota to proceed with the test. He wasn't surprised when it read no ability as he was only on this planet for 5 hours and didn't notice anything weird about himself.

He was then told to return to the group and while he was walking back everyone was staring at him with hate but wonder at the same time.

Gory then said "Dude your a Demon why didn't you tell me?"

"I didn't even know I was one. Is that good? Why does everyone look like they want to kill me?" Dakota said this while nervously surveying the group. Gory then told him that the last Demon was killed 450 years ago in the Celestial War. Demons were seen as bad omens as they were bringers of Destruction. They were the most powerful species on the planet and were only able to be brought down due to the combined work of all the species including the Celestials. They were only weaker than the Demons by a small margin, but the strongest Demon was twice as strong as the strongest celestial.

They were interrupted by the women telling them that everyone passed the test and that a man would be coming to lead them to their dorm rooms. The rooms would already have their names on them and there would be 2 in each room. Dakota looked forward to getting inside and resting. He was hoping that Gory would be his roommate.

Suddenly the lady disappeared and a man showed up and said "Follow me."
