***
In about a minute, he landed in the forest at a slow speed of around 10 miles per hour. As he landed, he felt basically no weight then he promptly removed the jetpack, feeling much lighter than before. Glancing up, he saw the collection of students still flying in the sky and also the plane, soaring off into the distance at a steady pace.
*thud*
Botan landed beside and before he knew it, Aria had also landed right beside him.
ding!
Their wristwatches all started a stopwatch, signifying the exam had commenced. This made Brandyn a little scared again, but the fear faded as quickly as it came. He then started by wrapping his hair back in a ponytail, allowing his single braid to stay next to his left eye.
"Alright, guys. Let's get to business!" Botan shouted, slamming his two gauntlets together.
Aria was around 5'6 and had short black hair, with purple highlights intertwined inside.
"Whatever. Don't hold me back." Aria replied monotonously, turning to grow a large spear made of rock in her right palm.
It was thin and sharp at the head, making it a deadly weapon for cutting damage but also blunt damage as it was thick and dense near the centre.
Brandyn, from this statement, assumed Aria had some form of power she didn't really show. Aria was one of the more quiet students in his year group so people didn't really know much about her. She hailed from the D-Rank Tungston dynasty, renowned for their earth and metal abilities.
[NEW QUEST!]
[Quest: First Round]
[Complete your first round and defeat at least 1 enemy.]
[Rewards: ???]
The question marks certainly puzzled Brandyn but it also made him theorise that the reward might be greater than the quest he had before. Or, the reward was different based on how well he performed in the test. Instead of just overthinking for too long, he left the quest for after the round had completed and closed the panel to get more focused on the task at hand.
Botan, instead, grew grey-blue hair down his forearms and his arms also grew quite a lot in terms of overall size. They became longer, fatter and especially, more muscular.
"What's your ability?" Brandyn asked, curious about the origin of his power.
"I can manipulate body to gain certain traits of a gorilla. It does drain my stamina if I use it for too long and these hulking arms slow me down." Botan explained, flailing around his new, muscly arms.
*fwoo*
A thin, sharp whistling sound of air being cut through was heard by Brandyn, right above his right ear. Not even moving his head to perceive the target, he lifted his arm to grab the incoming arrow. His eyes were flashing purple again, and he saw his purple eyes for the first time in the arrowhead.
"Woah." He thought, before he heard another coming towards him.
This time, he saw it and used the previous arrow to sever through the incoming arrow perfectly, causing the two sliced arrow parts to propel past him.
Swiftly, Brandyn charged ahead and leaped with insane levels of force for him, leaping up 10 feet with ease.
"Woah. I just did that! I did that on a whim thinking I'd swing off it or something but I can actually jump this high?!" Brandyn said to himself.
Again, he just jumped as hard as he could and managed to Land on a heavy branch above. Next, he swiftly climbed the leafy branches to try and conceal his presence, slowly advancing forward to surveil the target.
A third arrow soared below Brandyn and came towards Aria, who wasn't bothered in the slightest. Her face was straight and she didn't even facially react to the arrow, simply knocking it off course with her tough spear.
*clank*
*fwoo*
A fourth came, this time for Botan. Even with his heavy body and sluggish posture, he swerved his body out of the way of the incoming arrow swiftly.
Brandyn, with his glowing purple eyes, scanned the surroundings below, thrilled by the fight. Seeing his new aesthetic eyes made him have a bit more happiness but also motivation as he felt better about himself and his looks.
Below, there was a slim fighter, about 5'9 and also ginger, with a large bow gripped tightly in his left hand.
"Found him!" Brandyn thought, dropping down from at least 8 metres in the air to slam onto this guy's tensed shoulder.
*clank*
*thud*
His bow went flying out of his tight grasp and Brandyn landed with a heavy thud, making the student even fall on the ground from the weight of his drop.
This skinny student kept a defensive stance, which Brandyn clearly observed. However, Brandyn began to grow claws and fangs as his adrenaline soared through his body. His face also slightly changed in terms of structure and he had a more menacing, demonic look. Fuelled by the thirst for blood, Brandyn charged at the student and made a leap forward to begin with a knee to the face.
*BAM*
Two streams of blood shot out from his, now broken, nose. It snapped to the left and he stepped back multiple times, taken aback by the power of this hit. He even started to feel slightly disoriented and this feeling intensified with the left punch that came straight for his face.
*WHAM*
His entire body swerved, similar to Saru, but he was unable to stay on his feet. He simply fell over and struggled to even raise back up. His vision was hazy and shaking, making it tough for him to actually get back up.
"You're dead!" A fighter from beside Brandyn cried, charging at him.
He had short length brown hair and brown eyes, and stood at 5'10. He also possessed some weird ability that cloaked his fists in metal, making them tough and destructive. There was a loud clapping sound as he connected with Brandyn's forearm, also forcing him back a step.
Brandyn frantically swung, trying to just land a hit after this strike to the forearm. The metallic warrior predicted this attack and slipped past the attack with ease. As his arm overstretched, he landed a punch to his oblique area then he lifted his foot off the ground swiftly.
A layer of shiny metal grew over his shin as he drove his shin straight towards that same area.
*thump*
Brandyn felt a throbbing pain in the area of impact and he instinctively snarled from these 2 blows. However, it also made him more angry, more furious.
His eyes glowed a brighter purple briefly before he jumped off his planted feet with a knee. The warrior blocked the knee with his fortified palm but as the archdemon came down, he landed a front kick to the chest. The impact launched this guy backwards and forced him to perform a backflip to stop himself falling.
As he lifted his head, he left himself open for a powerful right straight, which had amazing form.
*THWACK*
His entire head jerked back, moving his body back as well. This time, this punch affected the fighter less and he was able to stay on his feet, with both arms up to defend himself.
"I never thought I'd have to use this technique against this 'regular-born'." The student thought to himself in shame for himself.
In between the middle finger knuckle and ring finger knuckle of his right hand, a blade grew and continued to grow until it was around 8 inches (20.3 cm).
