Chapter 242: Make way (1/2)
Elyon said ” In the next round , we will do a simple basic compilation test... A short 1 km sprint and a basic strength test , only top 100,000 will move on to the next stage. That or if one of your events of choice is equestrian , then it will be a simple test of your pets , the test will be taken independently by the AI , and rankings will be given , the moment you choose to accept the invitation you will be transported into the sprint track , followed by the power machine tester. Do your best !”.
Everyone panicked inside , out of over 10 million participants only 100,000 will move onto the next stage? Isn't this elimination rate too terrifying? .
However with everyone muted , nobody could utter a single word. Soon, the invitation arrived ...

Rudra chose any other event option and was instantly transmitted to the racetrack.
A countdown was displayed infront of him , which was still at 20 .
The AI the displayed the set of rules for the sprint. It read
1) There will be no second chaces soo Run at your best speed
2) Only run on the given path , and don't go outisde the white line , if you cross the white line while running , you will be disqualified.
3) No movement techniques can be used , or you will be disqualified.
The challenge starts in 20 seconds , good luck!
The timer started to tick , and Rudra came into his running action. Rudra's tummy felt funny , it felt like butterflies were flying inside them. The original Rudra would have admitted that he felt nervous , however Shakuni just snorted and said ” Calm down body , I got this ”.
19..18...17..16. .. . 3..2...1!! GO!
Rudra bolted , he did not dare reserve his speed in this stage , as the cutoff was not clear , and went all out.
His stats along with his inherent golden ratio skill and tier 2 boost. Was already top notch , even rivalling the best thieves and assasins.
Rudra covered the distance of one km in 27.4 seconds. He had already crossed the realm of normal humans once he stepped into tier two , however even he was shocked that he was about three times faster than the fastest human .
Man , did that sprint feel good. Going all out was sure fun. Rudra enjoyed the sprint , However he had no time to savour it at all , as the next challenge started immediately.
The AI said ” Detecting .... Player is from the Knight class , preparing appropriate test ”.
Although the second test was about testing strength it would be different for different classes.
As it was normal for Barbarians to have more points invested in strength stat , and less in intelligence , however the necromancer had nothing to do with strength stat and would have heavily invested in intelligence.
This did not mean that the necromancer was inferior to the barbarian player. Hence everyone was judged comprehensively according to their class and strength.
Even the result of the race , a wizard could never beat a assasins time in a 1 km dash , however the system calcultes the result according to the class, and comprehensively selects the top 100,000 players.
