A pack of monsters

The teacher announces, "Okay, class, we'll begin in an ascending order, from 1 to 110," gesturing to the student in the number 1 chair to kick off the practical.

Inside the glass cubicle lies a dummy, its purpose to record the force of impact from their attacks.

Force of impact occurs when two moving objects meet or when a moving object collides with a stationary one.

A person's punching force depends not only on their mass but also on technique.

On average, a human punch generates about 120-150 psi or 360-450 pounds.

The glove records the punching force in psi, and anyone scoring below 155 psi will fail the test.

The first student is a strong, muscular girl, Caroline Catherine, also known as CC.

She hails from a wealthy family, but rumors suggest she was sent to learn martial arts due to her unusually muscular physique for a girl. She ranks among the top ten students in martial arts.

Students are divided into three groups based on their class performance: martial arts, general knowledge, and overall best student. I'll explain more later, but Henry is in the top ten of each of these lists.

She walks up to the glass cubicle, and the glass door slides open. She then approaches the training dummy, already wearing her boxing gloves.

"Are you ready, CC?" the teacher asks.

"Yes, I'm ready," she replies.

"As soon as you hear the buzzer, you can launch your attack," the teacher instructs.

Nodding, Lisa readies herself. She brings her fist up to her chest and waits for the buzzer.

~Buzz!~

As soon as she hears the buzzer, she punches the dummy with all her strength.

~Boom!~

The dummy vibrates after receiving the force, and the digital measuring scale on its chest begins to display.

~Ding!~

The dummy notifies after reading her force.

[Impact: 182]

And her boxing glove displays.

[173 psi]

Both results are displayed on the transparent glass cubicle for the other students to see.

"Wow, that was impressive!"

"She passed!"

"Punching force of 173 and impact of 185, she's amazing."

"She's a top ten martial arts student after all, were you expecting less?" the other students murmur.

"Good work, CC," the teacher compliments her with a smile.

"Darn it, it wasn't high enough," she curses, looking at the teacher.

"Teacher, can I have another try? I'll do better this time," she asks.

"No, you can't. I have limited time to teach your class. Besides, your score was good," the teacher says.

"Not good enough. I have to show these kids who the boss is," she says.

"I admire your competitive spirit, but please kindly take your seat and let the next person have their turn," the teacher responds.

~Tsk~ She clicks her tongue and walks back to her seat in annoyance.

"What's with her? Her score is already good enough."

"She's got a weird competitive spirit."

"And a nasty temper."

"Did she just call us kids?"

"Someone needs to teach this haughty girl a lesson..." The murmuring of the students immediately quieted down as Caroline gave them a sharp glare.

The whole class continues, taking turns. So far, the lowest is 153 psi with a 156 punch impact.

The way things are going, the force of impact is only slightly higher than the punch force. Only a few students who are among the top ten make a noticeable difference in their force of impact. They are:

Lisa Andrea:

[174 psi, 180 P.I]

Caroline Catherine:

[173psi, 185 P.I]

Dominic Gareth:

[178 psi, 185 P.I]

Beatrice Lucas:

[181 psi, 192 P.I]

Drake Hunter:

[182 psi, 192 P.I]

William Cedric:

[184 psi, 193 P.I]

Hart. D. Farmer:

[184 psi, 195 P.I]

Judge Bruce:

[185 psi, 194 P.I]

Shella Davis:

[186 psi, 197 P.I]

These students' performances continuously awe their fellow classmates. They already know that the top ten are awesome, but this assessment just emphasizes the difference in strength. Their scores mock them for their weakness. Only a few clap, those who do so because they admire or like the person they're clapping for.

Now it's time for Priscilla Godwin, and everyone looks forward to her performance.

She enters the cubicle and throws a powerful punch at the dummy.

~Ding!~

[220 psi]

[236 punch impact]

~Clap! Clap! Clap!~

The class cheers for her.

Her score is the highest so far, so of course, it is worth recognition. Priscilla just goes back to her seat with an indifferent expression.

Emma stands up and goes next.

"You can do better, Emma!"

"You already have a girlfriend, bro!"

"I did not say I am in love with her."

One of the male students shouts as he cheers her on, and his seatmate confronts him. After entering the cubicle, she takes her stance and throws her punch.

~Ding!~

The dummy notifies, and her score pops up.

[253 psi] [267 punch impact]

This surprises everyone, including the teacher. She was supposed to be good, but not this good. This is pure talent. They clap for her and praise her. Smiling and puffing her chest out proudly, she takes her seat. But before sitting down, she looks at Henry and smirks, but Henry simply winks at her, making her give him a baffled expression.

The other students take their turns, and soon it's Henry's turn. Henry walks into the cubicle, takes a stance, takes a deep breath, and then punches the dummy.

~Ding!~

Everyone is silent; practically, their eyes are wide open, and their jaws are dropped.

Henry's score is just unbelievable.

[303 psi]

[316 punch impact]

"No, no, he cheated, he's cheating, right? He must have cheated somehow," Emma mutters to herself.

"Hehehe, I saw this coming," Gideon says, being the only one who is not too surprised.

"I knew he's a monster in a puppy's clothing. I think we need to reschedule our top ten list. We've got ourselves a pack of monsters."
