God's Slave: Reincarnated Into an Academy of Heavenly Descendants

A satisfied nod was given by one of the Ascendants, the one with the white aura and he rose up while the other two sat.

"We will begin the exam immediately, and I will now explain to your understanding, the process and the laws governing the exam," he declared, his voice resonating throughout the entire stadium, cutting straight to the point.

"The exam will consist of three phases, each conducted on a different day."

" We will be the judges for every phase according to the guidelines provided by the academy," he said seriously.

"The first phase of the test will be specific to each of you, conducted in a realm with clearly stated rules."

"Upon your arrival, the rules will be given to you explicitly, and the moment you break them, you will have failed this phase of the test."

"The points you will be given in such a case are a simple zero."

"With that understood, let's begin!" The figure said, and in the next instant, a strange object appeared in his hands.

It was a cubic box, inscribed with thousands of runes, each runic line flaring with strange multi-colored lights.

In the next instant, the crimson-haired young man threw the runic box into the air.

It floated in space before the runic lines all over it began flaring out with a brilliant multi-colored light, until every student had their eyes uncontrollably glued to it. Then, in the next instant—

BOOOOOOOOOM!

A flurry of myriad lights flared throughout the entire airspace, shining brightly onto every student present in the stadium hall.

In the next moment, a flurry of notifications flashed before Nolan's eyes.

[Warning!]

[An object is being used to drag the host's Divine body to an ever-changing divine realm!]

[Probability of Realm being harmful is being scanned.]

[Scan complete: A 50% chance of host being harmed.]

[Does the host wish to stop this artifact's effect?]

The system asked Nolan, whose eyes flashed with interest.

"So you can even stop the effect, huh? Cool," he thought. "But no! Don't stop it!" Nolan called out mentally.

If the system stopped the effect, which was supposed to allow him to partake in the exam, chances were that he would be the one shooting himself in the foot.

[Command has been received.]

[Host will now be transported.]

The voice rang out within Nolan's head, and in the next instant, he felt his eyelids become heavy as his head unconsciously dropped back, slamming onto the seat in which he sat.

The same could be said for the hundreds of students who also slumped back into their seats as if all had suddenly lost thier lifes.

The only ones remaining awake were the three Ascendants.

"Hopefully, we don't have to wait here for the entire day..." the second Ascendant, the one with milky white hair and eyes, said as they all sat down on the pulpit and waited.

The artifact they were using was an object that contained the test prescribed by the academy itself.

It had been specially made so that it would perfectly test each student as required by the academy, which had implanted within it its programming.

It would also properly record their scores, as also programmed by the academy.

They didn't even need to do anything at all. Just be there to make sure no outside forces interrupted the students' exams.

The sensation Nolan felt was as if he was currently being thrown along a curved road, tossing him here and there, rolling him around uncontrollably until finally, he felt his speed slow down and then—

BAAANG!

"Arrrgh!" A slight groan of pain escaped his lips as he felt a slight stinging pain on his back, but he quickly pushed that away as he instantly rolled away from where he landed.

About to summon his dagger, he stopped at the last minute, a simple thought in his head.

He didn't know the rules that surrounded this test, and who knew if using one's Ascendant skills was something that was banned?

He didn't want to get eliminated in less than a second on arrival. So, Nolan, in the end, didn't pull his dagger and instead looked around him.

The scene surprised him quite a bit.

Right now, he was standing in an arena, the ground beneath him made of dried desert sand, and around him were high walls, making him feel as if he were thrown into a pit.

Surrounding the place and towering high in the area were seats, where about a million strange alien races could be seen, roaring out loud in fervor as they looked down from above.

Nolan could see the sight of many golden coins being exchanged.

It was as if…as if…

THUUUMP!

THUUUMP!

The sound of something roughly smashing into the ground, shaking the entire colosseum, resounded as the screams and fervor reached a deafening level.

Nolan looked to the front, where a dark cage was being withdrawn into the wall.

From the darkness, he could sense something intensely powerful.

His eyebrows rose up, and in the next instant, the entire world paused, followed by a new voice ringing out loudly through the eerie area.

[Welcome to the first trial.]

[Your bloodline has been scanned, identified as that of Kratos, a path of war and strength. Therefore, this test has been naturally suited to you.]

[Your mission is simple:]

[You're to simply survive till the end.]

[Feel free to use anything to ensure that happens!]

The voice rang out, and in the next instant, the world immediately resumed once more.

Nolan's dagger instantly appeared in his hand, and he raised his head, finding that there was now a sparkling net of electricity that boxed the top above his head.

The truth was simple to Nolan.

He was absolutely trapped in this arena floor, and now there was this exceptionally large creature that was slowly walking out of the darkness, its form completely exiting as Nolan's eyebrows furrowed in shock.

"Seriously? Isn't this a bit too much of an overkill?"
