Chapter 45: Episode 5.10

Ready or not, the arena started to change according to the set up of the physical test. The concrete ground that they are standing on suddenly trembled.

Impressed Shen Yuan saw how red and white lines appeared all over the arena, forming an expansive oblong running track. The technology in this world is crazy. He felt like he was bum on his first trip to the city.

"The physical test was an obstacle course that we are all familiar with. The examinee will run on this two kilometer track riddled with pain-inducing hurdles," Chairman Mao explained. To his words, the machines have started to spread out across the track. These will serve as Shen Yuan’s obstacles along the way.

Their heavy metal sounds thundered in the arena and even the ones streaming online heard their clanking.

[gogobibi143: Chairman Mao really didn’t dare to hold back! Such mighty robots are not used in the usual Awakener Test. I know best because last month my little brother went there to test himself!]

"I don’t know if I should feel touched because someone’s really taking me seriously now," Shen Yuan muttered, his expression dead. "I wanna cry."

Chairman Mao seemed to heard him speak so he said with a murderously kind smile, "Don’t expect that this will be the same as the usual rubber ball-spitting guns. We are testing a presumed S-Class so we need to step up in some aspects of the test. The only thing that will not change is the scoring system. Each physical aspect will be graded from E to S. E being the lowest score and S— you guys know it, the highest."

The results will be assessed in real time using the sensors planted in the machines and the ones that Shen Yuan sticked in his bodies beforehand.

Shen Yuan smiled. Speed, strength, dexterity, and endurance. This test is perfect to measure his overall physique without going through all the trouble of doing exercises one by one.

The audience watched with tingling anticipation as Shen Yuan confidently strutted towards the starting line after wearing the mana-dispersing earings as a final requirements before the test. They saw how Shen Yuan assumed the starting up pose.

This is the first step that reveals if Shen Yuan is qualified to be an S-Class awakener.

"Shen Yuan was too arrogant. He will be humbled once he sees his results," Zhu Kai, who is seated in the first row uttered loudly.

Physical Test is not just simply for examining the foundation of an awakener. The Hunter Association is using this test to remind the newly awakened person that they are still human.

It is not uncommon for humans to get ahead of themselves after receiving a power or advantages over other people. These later on became the cause of crime or even fatalities to the awakener and to the people around them.

This is a serious problem that calls for preventive measures ahead of time. And this is why the H.A. forces them to come into terms with their limitations using the Physical Test.

"Shen Yuan is an omega and a mage-type awakener so there is no way he would perform well in this test. He would at best retain his C grade in his Physical Test that he got before," Zhu Kai added to the fire. He would exert whatever effort to bring down Shen Yuan in the eyes of other people.

Why should he back down when his death treath was left untraced by Shen Yuan and Bai Family?

People keeps on talking how high and well-connected these elite families are yet they are unable to stop threats around them.

Since people are seated together in benches, there are some who heard Zhu Kai’s words. And they internally agreed too.

Although not proven to be an universal law about powers, awakeners who gained the powers of a swordsmen, fighter, and tanks tend to have more improved physique compared to marksmen and mages.

Only a handful managed to break this stereotypes and most of them emerged with the help of training.

Zhu Kai sighs, "Watching that omega struggling is such a downer. I’m gonna leave-"

Boom!

Crack!

Zhu Kai’s words was abruptly cut short by the gun signal and the broken concrete.

Shen Yuan didn’t meant to start strong like he did but he just happened to do it due to the adrenalin rushing to his blood vessels.

The wind was throwing his hair back as he sprinted on the huge track. He knows he is running fast, abnormally fast compared to the expectations that these people have towards him.

"Seven days is too short to cultivate this body to the best state but that is enough to make some improvements in my body!" Shen Yuan uttered while jumping over the hopping steel hurdles before him.

This is any men’s nightmare because just one wrong timing in jumping and they would have to say bye to their family’s jewels.

He doesn’t know what kind of brain Chairman Mao has to put these ball-crushing devices but what he is certain that all these were petty tricks in the face of his cultivated body.

Cultivation is not a foreign thing to fox spirits like him. This is the method that they used to transform their power and wisdom that they accumulated over the years into their prized possessions— their fox tails.

"I didn’t expect that the cultivation method that I used as a fox spirit will work in this vessel. The mana from the dungeon-produced foods that Bai Tingfeng gave me as a dowry worked really well in tampering this body! Gotta call him sugar daddy later on" Shen Yuan smugly thought as he continued to run on the track.

May it be hopping hurdles or tiny, nerve-stinging tacks that is ominously spread out in the field, (which are all pretty dangerous and painful) Shen Yuan managed to leap over them skillfully and quickly, leaving the audience tongue-tied or gushing about his performance.

How could they not when they witness the raw strength of Shen Yuan? Plus there are a few muscles and skins being flexed here and there. The live audience and streaming audiences are reached their highest.

Bai Tingfeng is also impressed at the explosiveness of his husband’s moves. He had long observed during the training that Shen Yuan’s improvements are too fast but he didn’t expect Shen Yuan to perform this well. Approximately five hundred meters under three minutes is already good considering the difficulty of the obstacles.

It is a performance worth bragging about.

"At this rate, your husband will achieve at least an A grade for his constitution and dexterity. Congratulations," Wu Jin said.

Bai Tingfeng knew that this fellow is not a bad man. Wu Jin is just a person who doesn’t know how to pick his words. Therefore this time, he responded.

"It is still early to assume anything. Shen Yuan didn’t show his real strength yet."

"Oh? What is it?"

"Papa! Daddy is in big trouble! Grandpa Mao is bullying him!" Yanyan suddenly run and climbed on his lap while point at the field.

"Shit! What the hell was that?" The running Shen Yuan cursed when his peripheral vision caught a white spherical thing whizzing past him.

All he knew is that it hit the concrete with a loud crack.

He didn’t have the time to look back because this time, a big batch of these things are flying towards him.

"Bloody hell! Golf ball? Are you for real?" Shen Yuan screamed as he struggled dodging at the barrage of white tiny golf balls.

"I hope you know that getting hit by these fast balls would crack my skull!" Shen Yuan yelled facing the leisurely seniot alpha.

The H.A. Chairman is holding a very thin tablet that appears to be controlling the machines.

"There’s a medic standing by and we also have an awakener capable of casting healing magic so don’t worry," the other responded with his distinguishing smiling face.

"Ahh! I hate this old man!"

"I see, you will hate me more for this."

Chairman Mao manipulated something in the controls and in an instant, the machines that is placed along the last lap of the track moved. They turned into a dozen of fast moving, long-legged robots.

Shen Yuan’s senses are blaring. None of these things are giving a good feeling.

"They will not hurt you but I cannot guarantee that they wouldn’t latch at you with their long legs like baby koalas," that is the last reminder if Chairman Mao.

"They are so tall! Baby my ass!"

"Ouch!" A moment of distraction caused Shen Yuan to be almost hit by a speeding golf ball in the face. Thankfully, his instinct made his hand move on the ball’s trajectory, shielding his face from the impending tragedy.

"Damn that stings!" Shen Yuan complained. The feeling of being hit by this powerful golf ball is almost identical to being shot by a bullet! His eyes were slightly tearing up due to pain.

Clank! Clank! Clank!

The dozen robots came charging towards Shen Yuan. By the sounds of that they are creating, it is evident that they are heavy.

And getting latched by even one of them would force him to reach the end of the track crawling. That will affect his result in every sense and his explosive start will be all for naught.

At this point, the audience is at the edge of their seats.

"Shen Yuan! Dodge them!"

"Shen Yuan! Run away!"

They all screamed.
