The team outside arrives at the temple Knight directed them to. A huge interior welcomes them with branching stairs leading to six separate doors. They try to open any of them, but none of them budge. Then a voice suddenly calls out to everyone.

???: It won't work like this! I will decide who is worthy of which tower! And you still want to destroy the six towers?

Sally: Watch out guys! Anything could happen. Who are you? And what do you mean by "worthy" anyway

????: As it sounds. The guards you just defeated gave me an estimation of your fighting skills. I have to admit I'm not impressed, I'm disappointed by what I've seen so far. The others didn't inform me about this, there should be 5 of you, but I don't see any of the candidates here

Espio: (Candidates? If you're not looking for us, who are you looking for?)

Mighty: Grr! Don't mess with us, we don't have much time! show yourself, and we'll show you how worthy we are!

???: Patience warrior, I'm not done yet. If you've made it this far, you may still have enough in you to pass the test of the 6 towers. Now, based on your performance so far, I will assign you to the appropriate doors. (As he said this, the six doors opened and the team split into smaller groups.Ray: Whoah! What the hell is going on here? (Everyone looks at each other in confusion before they split up for good. 

First team Jet Wave and Storm are one of the trio. They see Reah Island's tower in front of them.

Jet: Ha! It looks like this will be a "climb to the top" type of task. It dosen't look so hard.

Wave: It's a bit high though, don't you think?

Storm: Are you afraid of heights?

Wave:  Not a chance. Just go alredy!

They also set out to get over it as soon as possible. They jump from platform to platform quite easily, they simply ignore smaller opponents or just use them as an aid to climb up. Not long after, they are at the top of the tower, where they see a structure that could be the power source for the tower, but they are not sure about it. When they approach, a forcefield blocks them from touching the structure.

Storm: And now boss? What to do?

Storm: And now boss? What to do?

Jet: I have no idea. You didn't find any key during the climb that could open this energy wall, or I know what.

Storm: Maybe we should have destroyed every single enemy to make it go away?Wave: No, they would have been annoying time wasters at best. If this was a "big test", I think there is something else here-Then they became aware of 3 beams that were heading towards them.

Wave: Guys, watch out! (Fortunately, thanks to the quick reaction of the team, they dodged the attack. After that, 4 pillars appeared out of nowhere, which was quite familiar to them.

Jet: Oh no! you again We just took care of you. It was not enough?

Wave: Something's wrong here. Do you also think the lighter he attacked us with seemed stronger?Jet: Now that you say it...maybe. If! Would that be the "big test?" We already know the trick to defeat it.
