How did Richard spend the last five minutes? He doesn't know. He just sat there in the middle of the stage while experiencing several sensations going through him.
Sometimes loud noises, sometimes extreme heat. He even felt several snakes wrapping around his body and injecting venom into his body, but when the buzzer blared, he was all fine and well. There were no physical wounds on his body, nor his ether-flow was damaged.
Walking out of the dome, he received the notification from the system that he finally had reached ninety points, and only needed ten points to have his status window.
And because of that happiness, there was a smile on his face when he returned.
"Hey, hey look. Smiling and all "
"Do you think he cheated?"
"No doubt. Whose mother is feared across the globe surely would get privileges in the academy."
"Damn...such corruption"
