Beast Evolution

Chapter 61 61 Assessment Test



The exercise had finally come to an end, the knights ended the exercise as the few students who were still jogging finished the 11th lap.

Among the students most of them were boys with well built body, Leia was the only girl, 'her stamina must be greater than mine' Ray mumbled.

All the students gathered together again, most of them couldn't even stand well after the exercise.

"You can return back to your rooms and rest" Alfred said and walked away along with Authur.

Some students slumped to the ground as soon as the knights left, Ray sat down on the ground trying to build up stamina to walk back to his room.

"I thought you were more stronger" Leia said.

Ray looked at her and smiled, 'this girl, for someone who doesn't talk much she is quite nosey'

"I'm not strong" Ray said.

"It wouldn't surprise me, given that you are a mage" Leia said.

Ray looked around to make sure no one heard what she said, the students were busy chatting and laughing with them selves.

"You can't say that out loud" Ray told her in a loud yet calm voice.

"Ohh, later" the girl said and left.

'I wonder the amount of training she had been through, even with the help of the system my stamina is still not in pair with hers'

'If it wasn't for the system, I knew I would have fainted after the a few laps, I would need to work on my skills more now that I'm here' Ray stood up with determination only for him to slump to the ground again.

...

Most of the students were already in their rooms, Ray lay down on his bed thinking about how his life would have turned out if he wasn't killed.

He would probably still be in the orphanage, going to school and getting beaten up by steve every single day.

'Oh how I wish I could see Steve, I would beat the crap out of him. first, for all the beating and humiliation and then for causing my death'

'I wonder if I can go back to my normal world' that was Ray's last thought as he drifted off to sleep.

...

In a land far away from all cities and villages.

"When are we going to attack the capital" a large man said to his group.

"Yes, I also think we should attack the capital now" one of the silvered hair man spoke.

"We are not ready to face their army, we should work on our army for the main time" a man spoke with a gentle voice.

The three people talking walked on top of a large wall made from stone, all of them looked down and they was almost a hundred people training.

"When our army is ready, the capital will fall".

...

Ray heard loud banging noise and opened his eyes slightly.

"Who is making that noise early this morning" Ray complained.

"Have you forgotten that your are in the knight academy" Ivan told Ray as he also struggled to stand up.

"Wake up sleepy heads, you are not here to sleep, I need everyone outside in five seconds or else you will be running ten laps in the field" a hoarse voice sounded from outside the rooms.

"Ten laps" Ivan shouted and quickly jumped down from his bed, the bunk bed contained two students, one at the top and the other one down.

Ray came before Ivan so he took the bed down, Leia also stayed down while Sofia stayed on top.

Ivan quickly wore his uniform and rushed out of the room before any of them, yesterday he ran four laps before his legs gave out, so they was no way he would run 10 laps without passing out.

Ray slept with his pants on so he only had to wear his shirt and also left the room, both of the girls slept with their uniforms on so they join other students outside.

"Okay, since you are all out..." sound of a door closing made the knight stop and looked towards the direction it came from.

"I'm sorry, hehe" the boy laughed weirdly, he was the boy that was with Ray when they saw Leia training at night.

The knight cleared his throat and continued speaking, "your assessment test would start in an hour, before that time, you should take your bath and prepare for your test" the knight said and turn to leave.

"Uhm sir... where is the bathroom" a boy asked.

"The bathroom follow me and I will lead you there" the knight said with a stern face.

The boy shivered as he looked at the face of the knight, "I'm sorry" the boy quickly said.

The knight walked out of the hallway leaving the students to catch their breath.

"Woah, he's really scary", "I hope he's not the one taking the assessment test".

Ray walked back inside his room and laid on the bed, "what are you doing?" Ivan asked.

"I'm tired" Ray yawned and closed his eyes.

"I'm going to check the bath" Ivan said and left.

"Never!!" Ray heard Sofia shouting.

Ray was seated on his bed, he wasn't able to get any sleep as the other students were making lot of noises.

Sofia entered the room and slammed the door behind her, her face was red with angry as she sat on Leia's bed, if this was an animation Ray could picture fire coming out of her nose.

"Is something wrong?" Ray asked.

"Don't talk to me, how can they, I hate this knight academy" Sofia shouted.

Ray wasn't a nosey type so he didn't ask her again and wanted to leave when she spoke.

"How can all the girls share one bath" she shouted.

'Share a bath, what does she mean' Ray thought then it came to him. In the army all the boys share one bath and all the girls share one bath.

"What!..." Ray shouted.

...

The students all went to the training ground when they were done with their baths, Sofia ended up being the last person to take her bath, she waited for all the other girls to leave before bathing.

The students arrived at the training ground and it was different from what they saw last night, the large field has been filled with different props, such as training dolls, an archery range and so on.

The field was surrounded by stands covering each side for people to spectate.

The stands was fairly full, as many knight had come to watch new students attempt the test. The field had been spilt into it five different sections, each section contained different equipment and a senior knight stood there.

Ray could recognize four of the knights, there were Authur, Alfred, James and Ivy but he didn't know the last person.

All the students stood by in front of the entrance, all 103 students were waiting nervously for their test.

"Okay students, there are four test for you to take to determine what aspect and rank you belong to" Authur said

"Rank, I thought there were about finding what you are good at" Ray asked Ivan.

"I didn't know it would determine your rank" Ivan said.

"All right, the first test Is the test of strength, you would be called up to the stage one by one" Authur proceeded to the stage.

In front of Authur was large stone, it was carved with a handle in a way that allows a person to use his hands to raise it.

Authur held the stone with both of his hands, while using all his might he raised the stone from the ground and carried it to the other side of the stage.

"You are to carry the stone to the other side, now let's see, who wants to go first" Authur said.

None of the students moved an inch or raised their hands, "okay, I would choose, you there" Authur said pointing towards Jack.

Jack nervously came to the stage, Ray was surprised he had never seen Jack nervous before.

Jack stood before the large stone, in one attempt he raised the stone with both of his hands.

The students were amazed at his strength but Jack stood still and wasn't moving.

"What is he doing, isn't he supposed to be moving" Ivan said as he looked at Jack.

Ray wanted to burst into laughter as he saw the situation Jack was in, he was able to raise the stone but he couldn't move an inch.

Jack dropped the stone back on the ground after some seconds, he fell to the ground immediately after he dropped the stone.

Sweat was running down his face as he struggled to catch his breath, making everyone wonder the amount of training the senior knight had went through.

"Okay, you tried, next is you" Authur said with a smile.

"Me" Ray answered half-heartedly

"Yes you"
