CHAPTER FOUR
Chapter 5: The Silver Fist Studio
Kaidën's excitement was palpable as he made his way to the Silver Fist Martial Studio. He had been looking forward to this day for what felt like an eternity, and he couldn't wait to begin his formal training.
As he arrived at the studio, Kaidën noticed a group of students gathered outside, all of whom looked around his age some wearing lavishing clothes while others on descent wears. There was a boy with messy brown hair and had a wide grin across his face; a girl with long, flowing silver hair and piercing emerald eyes; both wearing family crest signifying their status amongst several others , each with their own unique
Shortly after he arrived, a tall, imposing figure with a stern expression, he was putting on a black Gi uniform with three silver strips located at the rightmost shoulder . "Welcome,young ones," the man said, his voice firm and loud. "I am Apprentice Thorne, the head instructor of the Silver Fist studio. Today, we will be administering a series of tests to determine your suitability for our program."
Kaidën's heart skipped a beat as he listened to Apprentice Thorne's words. He had expected to begin training immediately, but it seemed that they would have to pass an entrance test to gain entry to the studio.
The tests, Apprentice Thorne explained, would evaluate the students' physical and mental abilities. There would be one hundred twenty-four students participating in the tests, and only the top thirty performers would be accepted into the Silver Fist program.
As Apprentice Thorne finished speaking, the
The students present where shocked to hear that almost 70 percent of them will be eliminated and only thirty will be allowed to pass
The man noticing the pressure he had created amongst the children was pleased, savoring in the moment as if he had won some sort of medal
After that little episode the students were led into a very large field with some obstacles.
Arriving at their destination Apprentice Thorne came to view again
"The test will be based on two aspect," said Apprentice Thorn
The first text will be based on your physical endurance while the second will be based on your mental fortitude
The first test, Apprentice Thorne announced, would be a physical agility challenge. The students would have to navigate an obstacle course, completing a series of tasks that would test their speed, strength, and coordination.
The Obstacle Course Test
The obstacle course test was designed to push the students' physical abilities to the limit. The course consisted of a series of challenging tasks, each one carefully crafted to evaluate a specific aspect of the students' athleticism.
The course began with a 5miles sprint, which led into a maze of twisting tunnels and narrow corridors. The students had to navigate this maze quickly and efficiently, using their agility and spatial awareness to avoid collisions and dead ends.
As they emerged from the maze, the students encountered a series of hurdles, each one higher and more challenging than the last. These hurdles required the students to demonstrate their explosive power, flexibility, and coordination.
Next, the students had to cross a balance beam suspended high above the ground. This task tested their balance, focus, and ability to remain calm under pressure.
After completing the balance beam, the students encountered a large, padded wall that they had to climb using only their hands and feet. This task evaluated their strength, endurance, and problem-solving skills.
The first participants to reach the finish line before the timer runs out will be the once who passed the first test
After explaining the rules and setting the time to 30minute which was not a pleasing time to set, Apprentice Thorn disappeared from where he was without signifying the start of the race to the surprise of kaiden whom again marvels on the power of this world martial artist
Kaidën,checking and noticing how others are also busy checking out their opponent,gauging each other strength
Adjusting to his optimum state waiting for the right time to dash forward
