The registrar led Tahir and his team into a room in the back of the hall. Dimly lit and mostly bare, the room contained a single large device, resembling a thick, reinforced punching bag hanging from a metal frame. The structure hummed softly, its sensors and gauges blinking in readiness. A digital display screen above it read: "Power Level Test."
"This is our assessment machine," the registrar announced, gesturing at the bag. "Each of you will take turns hitting it with full strength. The device will record the impact and calculate a power level based on the force applied. This ensures that all faction leaders and members meet our standards."
He glanced at Tahir and his team, his expression critical but focused. "Alright, who's first?"
