The strength test started with everyone doing what they could to attack the beam. Whenever they did so, their number would appear above in holographic form.
So far, the highest attack was just a little over a hundred.
Finally, Micheal walked to the beam. He drew his sword, engulfing it in flames, and sent a full-powered slash at the beam.
The numbers rose until they stopped at a hundred and eighty. The first to reach that high, the candidates burst into talks about his strength; it was simply amazing.
His action seemed to be the start of the competition, as Oliver went up next with his sword as well. He stabbed while it was engulfed in flames, and his score rose to a hundred and seventy.
Now, this number was crazy high, and the other candidates were amazed. But to Oliver, this was pathetic; he could not best a commoner.
