The Summoner's Tale

CHAPTER 5

Chase's PoV

"The test of strength shall commence anytime soon, please ready yourselves."

Matapos itong sabihin ng emcee ay may nagpop na hologram screen sa harap ko at may nakasulat doon.

'You got 95 points.' at 'see more details.'

Napatingin ako sa paligid at maging ang ibang students ay may ganun din sa harap nila. It's like an automatic system. Kaya pala may nakikita ako kaninang asul na ilaw sa harap ng mga nagtest kanina, ito pala iyon. It shows the points you got. How far can this academy impress me?

"You can see that there is a hologram assigned to all of you which contains the points you've gained in the recent test of speed. To see more details, just press the text and it will pop out."

Wow. It's even tangible.

Out of curiousity, I pressed the text and as the emcee said, more details came out.

Nasa hologram ang mga points na kailangan mong maachieve to reach the respective sections. Ang required para sa section one ay 250 points. Ang required points naman sa section twenty which is the last section is 10 points.

I'm not sure if I'll continuously gain above 80 points for the next two tests so I can't assure myself to reach the required points, but I'll have do my best if I really want to be in the section one. So far, ang reach na section ng points na nakuha ko ay section seventeen.

"How many points did you get?" Napatingin ako kay Cipher dahil sa tanong niya.

"95 points. How about you?" Sagot ko sakanya. His face crumpled.

"I got 62 points. I don't think I can reach section 1 at all." Sagot nito na tila wala na siyang pag-asa.

"Okay lang yan, bawi ka sa test of strength. Malakas ka naman eh." I encouraged him. He sighed and smiled.

"Yeah, I better give my best for the next test." He responded and we fist bumped.

"The round huge wall can accumulate energy and measure the strength of the impact of any objects you hit it with. The points you will get will be based on what the wall will show."

Nakalinya kaming mga estudyante at magkakasunod kami base sa rank namin sa race. Nasa pangpito akong linya dahil ako ang ikapito sa race at nasa ika-limampu't siyam naman si Cipher.

Naunang nagtest ang pinakanauna sa race. She only hit it with her body with a fast speed and the wall showed '56 points.' I don't know if that is strong since she's the first to try the test, but during the senior levels, the highest points so far was a perfect '100' points.

Pangalawa naman ay nakakuha ng 76 points at nagpatuloy ang test. The strongest one so far ay nakakuha ng 85 points. Nakakamangha ang kakayahan niya dahil kaya niyang gumawa ng tornado. Malamang ay naging dahilan din iyon upang mauna siya sa race.

Nang marating ko ang linya ko ay naghanda na ako. May malaking space na nakalaan para sa magtetest kaya sakto lamang ito para sa malalaking atake.

If it's an ordinary test of stength, I would only use Chopper, but since I aim for the section one and I need to gain more points, I'll use two of my strength-type animals.

"Chopper and Baron, come out." I chanted. Mula sa hangin ay nabuo ang malilit na light particles at nabuo ang dalawang guardians ko.

"Use all you've got and hit that wall!" I ordered them.

Chopper enlarged himself and prepared his claw. Baron is a bear so his strength is not ordinary either.

"Now!"
