Chapter 87: Standard

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Other than Orston and Yu, every single one of the new warriors was in awe when they saw the machine inside the shed and how magically it opened up.

Tang Ling also showed astonishment on his face, but he feigned it.

The scene was not considered magical to Tang Ling because earlier when he was rescued by Su Yao, the man had taken him to the training base to test out his strength in order to verify the existence of his Precise Instinct.

He was familiar with the so-called strength tester.

As for the other two machines, even if he had never seen them before, they must be something similar to the strength tester which was used to test their physical qualities.

The content of the test was straightforward. Tang Ling already had a general idea of how the test would be carried out, so he had no idea why Su Yao said that he could not pass. It was such an obvious test, so how would the intentional party target him?

“This is a strength tester. It can precisely test the amount of force that you can unleash. Of course, it has other uses, but you guys do not need to know that now.

“This is a speed tester. The most basic use of this is to test your speed in precise numbers.

“As for the last one, it might be a little high-end, but it is to test your reflexes.”

The main invigilator was Yang Kong. He skipped the chatter and explained the three machines in the shed as the young warriors gaped at them.

Yang Kong was in charge of the explanation while the standards of the test were set by Alan.

Thuja was very clear about the contents of the test. According to the previous examples in the First Reserved Camp, the first round of tests was to simply examine one’s punching force, and after the one-month training, their punching force should be stabilized at 500 kg.

As for their speed of sprinting, it should be 8 seconds per hundred meters.

As for the reflex test, the target would move at 100 meters per second with a concentration of 2 targets every square meter whereby the dodging rate must be above 60%.

It did not sound difficult; even the least elite soldiers of the sector could reach such standards.

However, the young warriors were only 15 years of age, so their bodies were not matured, and all their physical qualities had yet to reach their peak.

Putting aside this current era, during the old civilization, the average punching force of a grown man back then was only around 180 to 220 kgs of force.

What about speed? 12 seconds per hundred meters was considered great. Back then, there was no precise measuring machine to measure their reflexes, but they were less stellar than the normal people of this era.

However, the normal people of this era would never pass the test. Achieving a 20% dodging rate for them was already outstanding.

During the peak of the old civilization, firearms were invented, and one of them was the handgun. The bullet that it fired could reach as fast as 900 meters per second, surpassing what the normal human eye could capture.

Thuja was worried about what kind of standards Alan would set. Would he simply set the bar too high so only Orston and Yu could pass?

No, Orston’s dodging rate was the lowest among them. Alan would surely give face to the Gordin family, would he not?

While many thoughts coursed through Thuja’s mind, Alan simply stood before the young warriors and said, “I’m not purposely putting all of you in a difficult position, but you guys must know this. Before this, I’ve already known that your talents are better than all the reserved warriors from the previous years.

“Secondly, all of you really did consume extra resources, and since I’m a person who upholds practicality, resources should be transformed into obvious improvement.”

There was no buffer or chatter as he announced the standard of the test and simply briefed everyone.

His words put Thuja at ease. Thuja was actually pondering for a whole night why Alan would be so particularly against the young warriors since he was known for his vigilance and fairness. Now, it seemed like Alan was just carrying out his duty.

Moreover, based on the current situation, Thuja could not help but sigh. He had been staying in the reserved camp for far too long, so his information was outdated.

If it was not for the conversation he had with Yang Kong last night, the misunderstanding between him and Alan would have deepened, which might have resulted in some unhappy conflict in the test today. Thankfully, it did not happen. Ultimately. Thuja only felt a little worried and nothing else.

Alan’s words dissolved some of the worries in Thuja, and it also put the grudgeful and anxious young warriors at ease unlike last night when they were still a little bit reluctant to accept the changes in the test standards.

“Here are the new standards. The boys’ punching force must hit 550 kgs or above. The girls’ punching force remains at 550 kgs.

“As for speed, it will be changed from the usual 8 seconds per hundred meters to 7 seconds per hundred meters.

“Reflexes... Boys to remain at 60% while the girls have to reach 65% or higher.”

After explaining, Alan announced the new standards for the test without any pause.

The new standards were considered fair even for Tang Ling. Other than a slightly harsher requirement in speed, the increased requirement for the others had their gender factored in.

The boys were stronger than girls, so it was natural that their standards would be higher.

As for the rate of dodging, it was difficult to determine who had the advantage between the boys and the girls, but since the latter had a more mobile body and better coordination than the boys, it was considered as an advantage in dodging.

Tang Ling was confident that he could easily pass the new standards.

In fact, besides Tang Ling, every one of the new warriors heaved a breath of relief. Their daily training was already harsher than the previous years, and that was not just a metaphor.

Although every single bit of improvement was considered difficult, they were already excellent, to begin with, so the higher standards were reasonable. It was actually considered an acknowledgment.

After hearing the new standards, no one would think of Alan as an unfair person.

After Alan announced the new standards, Yang Kong stepped up and took over. “Well then, let’s start according to the sequence of acceptance, shall we? Yu, you first.”

Of course, Yu was the first to take the test.

When he walked to the strength tester, Yang Kong reminded him, “Yu, there’s a special condition for you and Orston. The two of you aren’t allowed to use your powers. I’m referring to your right hand and Orston’s tattoo.”

Yang Kong was rather vague with his request, but the meaning was clear. The test must be carried out in absolute fairness since it was to test one’s physical qualities.

Tang Ling, however, paid attention to the minor details: Yu’s right hand and Orston’s tattoo.

He recalled during the first exam when Yu cut open the tiger’s belly with his right hand and Orston’s unusual superhuman strength. Based on Orston’s strength when he stopped the thunder flower frenzied bull, his strength would have exceeded the test standards.

Besides, Orston was quick during the first exam unlike his usual sloth performance in training.

Could it be that their abilities were not showing during the training? No wonder they were less stellar during training in terms of results when compared to their attempt in the first exam.

If that was the case, could Tang Ling’s Precise Instinct be considered an ability? What was an ability anyway?

While Tang Ling was full of thoughts, Yu nodded and acknowledged Yang Kong’s request. In turn, Orston also agreed.

They also had their own pride to uphold. Even if they were not using the power of their family lineage, they must prove that they were excellent themselves.

“Well then, let’s begin. Since we are testing your basic punching force and not an explosive force, you must punch 50 times.” Yang Kong explained.

The rule held no other meaning than it was just purely a test of stamina.
