Chapter 7 (Same ability)

2 but when used with a bow Quinn felt like she could have easily beaten some level 3 or 4 users.

Quinn was starting to take note that the academy really did only measure the power level of your ability and not your fighting ability.

The next person to take the test was Erin. She walked forward confidently without even looking at anyone else. She stood in the centre of the testing field waiting for the test to start.

Then, 5 random targets appeared across the wasteland. Immediately she formed an ice spear and chucked it at the target hitting it dead on. She did this one after the other at an incredible speed, nearly clearing them all just as fast as Layla did.

The next test Erin was even more impressive. She started to gather ice in both her palms and then after a minute or so of gathering her power, a huge ice collum was shot from her hands and hit the centre of the drum dead on. The drum rang out louder than it had before and the number kept going up until it had eventually reached 50.

"No wonder she’s so confident, "Vorden said.

Quinn suddenly thought it was a good thing the two of them didn’t fight otherwise Vordan would have been a dead man.

Finally, when the last test had arrived the instructor told her she wasn’t allowed to use her ability and should just dodge. Erin had no reaction and started the test immediately. She managed to do well moving swiftly avoiding each spike but eventually, the machine had gotten too fast and she ended up getting hit.

"Impressive!" Jane said, "best result so far, power level 5."

Erin continued to walk back to her group as if she knew what she was going to get all along, either that or she didn’t really care about the whole thing.

Finally, the last person to take the test in the group was Vorden.

"Time to show you what I got, wish me luck."

Quinn had no clue who Vordan was talking to, but Quinn quickly realized it was him after Vordan gave a wink in his direction as he walked off to the centre of the field.

"Could that idiot actually be strong?" Quinn thought.

Most of the time people who strong were either arrogant about their powers or kept it quiet but Vorden was a strange person. He wasn’t exactly arrogant but more flashy.

When it finally came to his turn and the test had started, everyone’s mouth was left wide open at what they were seeing. On every single one of the tests, Vorden had done the exact same thing as Erin.
