Lord of the Time: I Can Reincarnate Infinitely

Chapter 121: 121: End of Test

"Shu, crouch a little. Kazuto, you have to raise your left hand. Damn it! Kidd, what the fuck are you doing!?" Caleb felt his voice dry after continuous instruction.

Kidd growled.

"Damn it! I'm trying!"

After a few minutes of struggling to fit their body into the tight, narrow passage. They became more and more uneasy as they felt the painful prickling sensation of sharp rocks on the wall.

'These rocks are causing bruising on my skin.'

After another painful minute or so. Their determination had never wavered. The physical effort required to squeeze through the narrow passages may lead to feelings of exertion and strain.

To successfully pass through the narrow passages, they have to keep their focus and listen to Johan's instructions carefully. Every wrong move has caused puncture wounds to their bodies due to the jagged and sharp rocks.

"I don't want this anymore."

Kazuto couldn't help but complain. How did Zetsu pass through such a passage so fast? Not to mention, this training in their agility of theirs also challenges their flexibility.

Fortunately, they got past the passages after another few grueling minutes. Their clothes had small holes here and there, and their faces were covered with dust.

However, the challenge didn't end there, as they discovered they were in an area with a rather low ceiling. So, they didn't have a choice but to crawl their way and crouch in selective areas.

Though it was ten times better than the one they had to go through before. Rozho has also returned the Katanas to their sheaths, as there were no apparent threats on the test.

"It seems we didn't really need to fight something on this test. It's just challenging terrains." Rozho muttered, just barely audible to the other members. "Still, thankfully we have Johan with us or we won't even get past those narrow passages."

Shu, on the other hand, let out a sarcastic chuckle. "Do Zetsu-Sensei want us to fail? Test of agility? It's more like a test of vision."

Caleb kept his eyes closed along the way. In his mind, there was a vague holographic of the place they were in. Although it wasn't detailed or clear. It still helped him bypass a lot of injury-prone areas, such as those areas with higher concentrations of pointy rocks. He realized that the spirit attributes are more helpful than he thought.

Also, thanks to his enhanced physical ability. The damage from the protruding rocks was non-existent to him. He was just worried about the members since their bodies were not as tough as his. Shu and Rozho look fine as they manage to keep their pace relatively fast, just like him. However, it couldn't be said the same to Kazuto and Kidd.

Another fifteen minutes passed. The floor became uneven, with rocks and protrusions, testing their' footing and balance. The good news is that the ceiling finally turned back to normal, which allowed them to stand on their own feet.

"Fuck! My body is sore all over." Stretching his stiff arms and numb left foot, Kidd felt that the hour they spent was like days due to how difficult it was. He felt choked, as he knew that they had to get back once again after the test.

"Congratulations, kids. You have passed the agility test!"

The teenagers heard a voice suddenly appear beside them, making them jump away in fright.

"Fuck!"

When they saw it was Zetsu, the five teens calmed down. Shu looked at Zetsu with a sigh of relief. "That's it? No testing of our speed, running, dodging, or the like?"

"Nope... The test was simple, right?"

Hearing this, Kidd couldn't help but vomit on his heart. 'Yeah. It's so fucking simple! Fuck right!'

For god's sake. Without Johan acting as an eye and pathfinder for them. It would be inconceivable how they would pass such narrow passages. That's just asking for trouble.

Caleb looked at the state of his other teammates. He has to shake his head. It was just the first test, and it was already difficult for them. If he wasn't wrong, Rozho and Shu might have reached the middle or intermediate prerequisite already. However, the way for them to reach the highest prerequisite was still a long way.

...

Three months passed just like that. Caleb and the others had finished the test. Albeit with difficulty.

Well, the five tests only took one month while the two months were spent by Zetsu training their bodies.

It was worth mentioning that the relationship between the members became closer. Caleb also realized that Shu has the same mindset as him and has a lot of similarities in what they like and what they don't.

The Scout gave them medicinal pills to let their body undergo an intense strengthening process. They took one strengthening pill once a week, along with intense physical exercise designed for Scout Trainees.

Of course, such a strengthening pill wasn't that effective for Caleb. However, it did still improve his physique. The lucky ones are Shu, Kazuto, and the others as they step upon the highest prerequisite in just a month.

'Status!'

From 50, the spirit became 54. It was a good increase, and he felt that his muscles were toner and stronger than ever.

He didn't know what's in the strengthening pill and how it made his muscles strong. He might not know the principles, but was indeed effective. An increase of four units on the physique. It was not a small increase since it was equivalent to 90% strength of an adult.

With his current physique now. His punch might be enough to shatter a soldier's skull. No, it might even go through it all the way to the back and put a donut on someone's body.
