Beast Evolution

They also displayed many grand weapons, some of them were actually too big to be used in battle.

Another knight directed the students, they continued walking till they arrived at a door that said "New students accommodation".

"Your name will be on your room door, there is no chance for a change no matter how much you don't like your roommate, you are knights get used to that. Your school uniform are laid out on your bed, good luck to you all" the knight said to them before leaving.

The students opened the door and went inside. The room were arranged on two sides, one by the left and the other by the right.

The students proceeded to checking their names on the door, Ray and his group went to the left side looking for their names.

The students were separated and each room contained four students, Arya was the first among them to find her room, apparently all her roommates were strangers that she had never met, wait not all Lily was her roommate.

All the others that didn't find their names on the left hallway proceeded to check their names on the other side.

Ray finally found his name and also saw a familiar name along with his own, Leia was his roommate, he didn't know if it was the silver hair girl or another Leia, he eventually opened the door and entered the room.

Leia was sitting on one of the bed checking out her school uniform along with another girl that he did not recognize.

"Is this your room?" the girl asked.

"Yes" Ray answered.

"How will I share a room with a boy, that's not possible" the girl shouted

Ray was shocked but he didn't know what to do, Leia just stood there watching as the girl left the room.

Ray didn't see and third person and he just sat down, Leia didn't say anything and just continued to arrange her bed. They were two bunk beds on each sides of the room.

A few moments later the girl returned looking more angry than before, what the knight said about no chance to change roommates was true.

All the students had finished unpacking their things and started to change into their school uniforms, the last person staying in the room was boy named Ivan, he introduced himself as soon as he came in.

Ray also introduced himself so did Leia, and all of them looked at the other girl, I'm from the Noble family of Magus, I'm Sofia Magus.

"You are from the family of Magus, you are lying" Ivan said, Ray didn't know what it means but Leia also pay attention.

"I'm not lying" Sofia said angrily.

"But I thought all the family of Magus are mages" Ivan said and Leia nodded.

"Well I'm not a mage, I choose to be a knight" Sofia said in a depressing tone.

The room was quiet as the four of them looked at them selves, the two girls looked at the boys strangely making them to wonder what was going on.

"What's wrong, why are you looking at us like that" Ivan asked.

"Must we tell you to leave the room, we need to change" Sofia shouted.

"You should have told us, and you look cute when you are angry" Ivan said making Sofia face to redden.

"Cute, I'm not cute am beautiful" she said in a low voice making sure he didn't hear her.

Ray and Ivan left the room and were standing in front of the door waiting for the girls to finish changing.

"So where are you from" Ivan asked Ray, Ivan seems like the talkative type like Arya.

"I'm from the capital" Ray replied not wanting to take the conversation far, he eventually mentioned few things to Ivan as they talked.

After the girls were done Ray and Ivan went inside and changed into their uniforms, the uniforms were black and grey jump suits, after changing the group talked a little before finally leaving to dinner when they were all called.

"Do you guys know anything about the upcoming assessment?" Ray asked.

"We really don't know much about them, but they test you to see what category of knight you belong to" Ivan said.

"Category... what's that?" Ray asked.

"Don't you know anything, category are like class, there swordsmen, Archer, spear user and some that I don't know"

A knight knocked on their door to remind them of the dinner and the group went straight to the dinner hall.

The group entered the dinner hall along with other students, some of the students were already in the hall waiting for the food to be served.

The hall was extravagant as the rest of the building, the dinner hall was so big that it could fit a thousand persons.

Each table allowed four students to be seated and all the students sat with their new roommates, Ray saw Lily and Arya seated at the same table.

'Are they roommates' Ray thought but focused in front of the dinner hall when some knights entered.

In front of the dinner hall, a stage was fixed and four familiar knights walked to the front of the stage, there were Authur, Alfred, James and ivy.

Another person stepped up to the stage and smiled as he saw the group of new students.

"I welcome all the new students of the Bullmar academy, this is the start of a new journey in which you would face many challenges to become fully trained knight that would serve this great city in one way or the other" the knight spoke with calm and elegance.

"The assessment test would be taken tomorrow, first thing in the morning, but for now the knights would instruct you on what to do" the man said and left the stage.

"We will meet in the training ground in 10 minutes time" Authur said and left along with the other three.

The students didn't know what they were going to the ground to do, it was obvious they were going to train. They quickly gulped down the food they were given and rushed over to the training ground before their ten minutes was over.

The students walked a little before they arrived at the school ground, some of the students didn't even finish their food and left it.

Alfred and Authur were the only knights at the school ground, the students gathered together and formed three straight lines waiting for their command.

"You are to run round the field today to improve your stamina, most of you would not make the assessment test so work hard" Alfred shouted.

"Yes sir" the students all shouted in response.

This was a boost in disguise, the students all ran round the field at first feeling enthusiastic, then after running three laps some of them started to take breaks in between runs.

Ray on the other hand was running and jogging with the remaining students that were not yet tired, but Ray had a different reason for running round the field.

Ray wanted to test how long he could go before getting tired, few of the students were still jogging after the 5th lap, most of them had retired and the knights didn't ask them to continue so they didn't bother, it was night time already the were supposed to be resting.

Stamina [+1]

The system interface came up surprising Ray after the 7th lap.

'so attribute can be improved without skills point, I just need to train, well all good I'm in the knight academy so I may as well use the opportunity' Ray smiled at this realization.

Most of the students had stopped jogging and had sat down to rest, the only students remaining were boys and a single girl Leia.

Ray was starting to get dizzy as he continued running, soon his legs gave up and refused to carry him further making him to stop after the 10th lap.

Ray breathe heavily and slumped down on the ground, he hadn't been this tired since he left the dungeon, this memory made Ray remember his time in the dungeon.

'I wonder where that forest is located that even humans need a portal to come there, I guess it would be deep in beast territory'

The exercise had finally come to an end, the knights ended as the few students who were still jogging finished the 11th lap.

Among the students most of them were boys with well built body, Leia was the only girl, 'her stamina must be greater than mine' Ray mumbled
