Commander Holman led us to a training room, it a dome shaped area right at the middle of the room. We were led into the dome shaped area where there was a machine at one end of the dome. There were many auto armors at the other end of the dome with a circular wide platform at the center. In summary, it looked like an auto armor duel field. Auto armors are big machines that are controlled by humans from the inside.
"Here you will take your last test. As you all can see, there are auto armors there but you aren't using them. You will register yourself into that machine by placing your hand on it, then you'll be transported into a virtual planet, you must survive for 2 hours, remember, it is not just virtual the pain is real. 200 people at a time, Go"
After he said that, the lady behind him began to call out names and we were surprisingly in the first batch.
We got in a line and lay our hands on the machine one after the other, soon we were transported into the virtual world.

Blake's (POV)
The moment I was being transported into a planet, I felt my whole world turn white for a few seconds then I regained my vision.
{Host has been transported to planet caladin}
{Description: A planet with 48 hours sunlight and 12 hours nighttime. A desert type planet, home to class 2 beasts. Currently an explored planet.}
"Planet caladin..."
In front of me was a vast space with uneven grounds and a few craters scattered everywhere, did sun is hot, I mean HOT.
"Oh my god, 2 hours, I got to stay here for 2 hours." At that moment, I felt vibrations under my feet
{Host has come in contact with a class 2 beast}
{Host is advised to get ready}
The vibrations were getting stronger and I instinctively backed up a few steps, some seconds after that a beast shot out from the exact spot I had been.
{beast detected}
{Beast name - Jagged worm
Class - 2 (speed related)
Description - A class 2 beast with extremely hard skin and a wide mouth with jagged teeth. Speed related. Brown skin used to blend with the soil. Possesses an acid used to melt the soil in order to move freely in the soil.
Weakness - A soft spot inside its mouth}
"So the only way to kill this thing is through its mouth...that won't be hard"
The worm melted its way into the ground and moved directly under me, I got ready and created a lightning rod.
"1...2...3, now" I jumped up and immediately threw the rod directly below me. The rod pierced the back of its mouth and killed it instantly, I landed on the ground beside it , I got close to it and carved out the core and kept moving.

Brent's (POV)
As soon as I opened my eyes, I found myself in a forest, I looked around me and saw nothing but trees, tall and big trees as far as my eyes could see.
"2 hours, OK let's do this"
Shuaah
I heard the sound and looked up, what I saw was a gigantic bird with terrifying red eyes staring down at me.
"OK, starting right away aren't we?" I said and got ready for a fight
{Breast detected}
{Beast name- flaming hawk
Class 3- fire affinity}
{Description - A hawk coated in fire, prefers to fight airborne. Skill - Incinerate and fire ball. In short, this is a f#$king dragon in the shape of a bird.
Weakness - Eyes and under it's wings}
"OK, first I gotta bring it down to my level, already got a plan for that" I stated and created an earth pillar right beneath me, elevating me up and smacked the bird to get it riled up
SMACK
SCREEEECH
"Oh, that worked better than I expec..." I was saying before being rudely interrupted by a big fire ball.
"Hey big guy, you really aren't gonna come down, guess I'll have to kill you there". I created a small portal and casually walked into it and appeared above it's head with an earth spike in hand.
"Die, you over pampered bird!" I screamed and pierced it on it's nape then used my legs to hold onto the flailing bird to get under it and pierced the skin under it's wings and it came tumbling down.
"That was surprisingly fast, well unto the next" I said and made my way deeper into the forest.
Desame thing was going on to all the candidates.
...
At the same time, in the academy were many middle aged men and women looking at large screens showing the candidates performances and a large and tall screen showing the leaderboard of the candidates and the top 5 candidates were as follows -
Blake and Brent - 50 points
Viro - 35 points
Aria - 30 points
Iria - 29 points
Will and Larina - 25 points
"There are some promising candidates thus year... I see" a middle aged man with sunken eyes and deep black hair with some strands of gray hair, showing his overworking habit said
"You're right" a seemingly young lady with shoulder length green hair, looking no more than 25 years of age said.
They were currently staring at a screen showing seven kids fighting against monsters and winning.
"Instructor Lara, you're interested in this?" the man asked
"of course, their definitely getting in my class Allan, so get your eyes off" Instructor Lara said staring right into Allan's eyes
"Oh, then you'll have to fight for them, Ms. Lara" Allan retorted
"Wanna make a bet while we're at it?"
"How nice of you to ask, but I'm not interested, because I'll get them either way" Lara said nonchalantly
"Hoho, someone's scared of losing" Allan mocked
"Don't push it Allan" Lara said as they came to a stare down and right when they were about to release their pressure on each other, an elderly voice interrupted them
"Enough you guys, you're distracting me" the elderly man said while stroking his beard, not even sparing them a glance.
""Yes sir"" they both replied and quickly sat back down.
The seemingly old man was the principal of the academy, his weak looking limbs, held power they could never hold with his sharp hawk like eyes, they didn't dare to make another sound.
