The First Trial (Dance till your Dead)

When abilities and systems had first been introduced to the human race, people had quickly discovered that some were far more powerful than others. The abilities themselves were also different from person to person. They were dependent on the talent the person had and if they could get a systems recognition, if one had those, growing stronger was not a problem. After the world discovered big powers with OP systems, came the introduction of the power level system, which differentiated between a total of 27 power levels. These levels indicated the system integration in the body but not how strong the ability was. The military further divided them into subcategories. -F, F ... all the way to SSS+. Just to identify everyone.

There were two ways for people to obtain systems. There were the so-called Originals, and the people who had gotten one regularly. During the war with the monsters race, some people in distress started to exhibit powers which the human mind could not comprehend. Scientists claimed it was humanity's last stand against extinction. The power the Originals could display had come as a shock to the monsters and had proven to be enough to push them back. These new superheroes realized that they could share their powers with other people. So they did it quickly since humanity depended on these strange powers for survival. They wrote down how they accomplished this and put the information down in things which would later become known as system books. After the first war had ended, the books were no longer distributed freely and instead started to go on sale to the public. The first system users had realised that their powers now put them at the top of the food chain and they wanted to make the most of it. The military decided to keep some of the more powerful systems to themselves. From that point forward, ability books ranging from level -F to A+ were the ones sold to the public, while giant corporations and the military connived with the first known ability users to keep the higher-level -S to SSS+ versions to themselves. As such, if one was an ability user, they either belonged to an Original family or one would have learned the ability from a corresponding book. Unsurprisingly, the Originals were stronger and accessed higher levels information of their system than the rest of the human race. Additionally, not all system users had chosen to share their abilities to the outside world and some had decided to keep it exclusive to their own bloodline. Originals usually had the strongest of abilities that couldn't be measured using the power system. But theoretically, if one with a normal system understood their system by themselves, they could become monsters in society, surpassing even SSS+ grade.

After the ass-whipping of his parents, Astrid did not have any family members to support him. He had lacked the means to buy even the cheapest ability book and as far as he knew his family had not been special enough to be an Original. Now, after all these years, it seemed like he had managed to obtain an system after all. He never heard of an ability like his before, so he didn't even have a clue what power level it had, but he was sure it would be able to unlock a new grade never heard of before, --F.

'Sniff, well then, what is my reward?'

[Well, Lucky streak eh, kk, this time I was prepared, your reward is...]

[You have met the requirements for a hidden skill, would you like it?]

"Plz!" Astrid replied.

[Good! You have been bestowed with (Girl Language)!]

[Girl Language): You are able understand what girls want in a man and what girls want in general. (Upgraded if you get more girls)]

"..."

Astrid was really about to cry right now, but then he thought...

'Imma kick that system right in the ass'

[Huh?]

"I'M NOT GONNA LET ANYONE GET IN MY WAY!" he said as he walked in style to the entrance.

(trips on his own feet)

'I'm a failure'

[You know it]

'After all that ass pain'

{Sniff}

'I'm sorry system'

[Its ok]

'I'm sorry Xiao Fen'

{You were a bright young lad}

'God I have been falling for a very long time'

[What?]

"You idiot, if you are a student in this school, I swear.." a burly man with an eyepatch said. He wore an white army vest and black pants. he had snow white hair and sapphire eyes. As soon as he pulled Astrid up, he said. "Go on to the first stage, I'll be sure to target you first." he said with a evil smile.

'Oh shit, I'm dead' Astrid thought

After 10 minutes Astrid lifted up his hand to look at his watch, it was about time. When he looked around, he noticed that everyone else's was excited, yet nervous.

"Well then, it should start in about..

1..."

SLAM!

The doors of the school blasted open to see... the same man that saved astrid from certain death.

"IM SEGENT YETI! THAT IS ALL YA NEED TO KNOW! STAND STILL AND TRY NOT TO CRY LIKE A BABY!" He said as he threw a bunch of ice needles at the students.

"RUN BITCH, RUUUUNNNNNN!"

"NIGERUNDAYOOOOO!"

"HELP, HELP ME!"

All the students were in a panic, running in all directions, unluckily, the needles were homing and stuck many people in the ass.

'This reminds me of something you did system!' Astrid thought while running.

[I loved your reaction, you should have been crying tears of joy but instead you cried tears of sorrow, I don't understand what I did wrong?]

'Of course you don't you are a literal floating piece of shit after all.'

[How dare you insult me, those needles will deal with you]

'Holy Maitake mushrooms, Xiao Fen, could you do something?'

{Sorry my G, I can't let you use me all the time}

'Can't fight them or I'm dead, I have nothing to protect me, can't run from them cause their homing. Ah shit, might as while dance, lets enjoy my last moments.' Astrid said as he stopped in his tracks, and danced to 'Dance till your Dead'.

Nodding his head and shaking his ass, waving his hands and jumping up and down. What more could he do, he was a skinny piece of his wearing a red shirt and black shorts.

For some reason, the needles kept on missing him, whenever Astrid was about to get hit, he did a dance move that completely dodged the missle, this occurred for about 30 minutes until Yeti said

"STOP DANCING YOU WEAK PIECE OF SHIT!"

When Astrid heard this, he finally realized that he was dancing this whole time without getting a single hit. He also woke up to see a pile of students with needles all over them like a porcupine.

"The first stage is over, good job to those who passed, except the dancing dog." Yeti said

Every started to laugh at Astrid but secretly, they couldn't believe his luck 'Dancing to get the win? Impossible!'

Everyone else by either using their ability to create a protective covering around them or by blasting the ice needles to pieces, but he just danced? Unacceptable!

'Wow! Astrid won... by dancing! How cool!' Dawn thought, this didn't increase her attraction to him, but it reminded her that he actually existed (since he is so thin).

{Tell me, where did you learn that movement technique?} Xiao Fen inquired

'It's just a dance move I learned from 'Dance till your Dead', but it got me the win?!'

{WHERE!}

'Sheeesh, on the internet! Couldn't you check my memories?'

{It takes longer to search through each and every memory." Xiao Fen said as we saw Astrid learn 'Dance till your Dead'.

{Wow... how could someone release such a godly movement technique on such an accessible platform called the internet! How wasteful!}

'It's just a dance move...'

{Don't you dare say such a profound technique is a 'dance move'! Wow...} Xiao Fen said as he rewatched the memory {So easy to learn too!}

"Well let's go to the second trial, follow me!" Yeti said as he led the remaining students to the second stage.
