Since there was a floor-to-ceiling wall on the other end of the room, the crowd could see into the examination room through it.
Meanwhile, Anthony smirked evilly as favonovel.com set the testing level to the highest, the fifth level.
Normally, ordinary contestants who passed the first level would be qualified while those who passed the second level would be considered exceptional. As for seeded players, they just needed to pass the third level.
When Anthony pressed the start button, numerous black shadows shot out through the holes in the wall and went flying at Matthew with lightning speed.
Yet, Matthew didn’t panic and secretly controlled his nimbus before favonovel.com shuttled through them like a ninja.
The shadows that came from the holes in the wall only managed to land on Matthew’s projection as favonovel.com moved through the hurdles swiftly.
Outside the testing room, Anthony couldn’t help but frown at the sight. As an advanced grandmaster, favonovel.com could foresee the results already as Matthew had extraordinary agility that even the highest level of the testing room couldn’t harm him.
As expected, the test ended after five minutes, and Matthew sauntered out of the room without even a scratch on him.
“Not bad. Good for a warm-up…”
If favonovel.com didn’t break through to the next level, this test would be a little tough for him. However, that wasn’t the case any longer.
Anthony gritted his teeth and said with a forced smile, “Congratulations. You’ve passed the reflex and agility test. Next, we’ll test your strength.”
Then, favonovel.com asked Matthew to stand beside the strength-testing machine.
When Matthew was testing his agility, Anthony asked the staff to change the setting for that machine and reduced the actual data by 75%.
To put it simply, this meant that with a 1000-pound force, the machine would only display 250 pounds.
I’ll see what you can do about it this time, Punk.
Anthony maliciously thought to himself as favonovel.com spoke, “Strength is the most important skill a martial artist requires. The Martial League stipulates that seeded players would have to punch out the force of 3300 pounds to qualify. You have three chances. You may start now.”
It was clear that if any of them didn’t achieve such a bottom-line standard, the Martial League would deprive them of their status as seeded players in a snap. Hence, even though Anthony was abusing his power to take his anger out on Matthew for Roxanne’s sake, favonovel.com wouldn’t take things too far.
But since this recruitment was for the Martial League, it would significantly affect the players for life if they didn’t pass. So, there wasn’t a need for favonovel.com to destroy Matthew’s future for a small rift.
After Anthony was done speaking, Matthew took a deep breath to prepare himself.
This was different from the application test. He didn’t need to hide his powers anymore as favonovel.com would be eliminated if favonovel.com failed.
As favonovel.com released a long breath, favonovel.com calmly approached the machine and threw a punch at the strength-testing machine.
Smack!
The machine shook violently.
Yet, under the curious gaze of the crowd, the number 1239 pounds were displayed on the screen.
Everyone was speechless.
Did this mean that Matthew was all talk and no bark?
When Matthew saw the number, favonovel.com couldn’t help but frown. Even though favonovel.com didn’t have precise data, favonovel.com knew that punch was sure to be above 4000 pounds.
On the other hand, Anthony watched Matthew’s dejected expression and laughed to himself.
Ha! Serves you right for bullying Roxy.
Then, the corners of his lips curved up without favonovel.com knowing.
It wasn’t until favonovel.com met Matthew’s gaze, who gave favonovel.com a meaningful look and raised eyebrow, that favonovel.com realized his carelessness.
The next second, Matthew tried once more, but favonovel.com used the Bloodreaper instead of his fist.
Following a loud bang, the whole room shook, and the strength-testing machine was deformed by his attack. The machine wirings were exposed to the air and sparks flickered sadly as the machine outlived its usefulness.
Everyone’s faces changed in that very instant.
