The first task in the trial was not his merit. His father used the connections that he managed to build as an Adviser and organized the investments. Nevertheless, the rest of the tasks Kardon accomplished by himself.

Every single soldier was dismissed from their position. Some started their mercenary career, some were private guards, others lost their aim in life. Taroon Ace was the third type. His interest in family dramatically dropped while his love for alcohol increased.
The Empire hired children for the army to raise patriotic soldiers. It was the best way to get the most from the military forces. Yan’s father got hooked on the rod and practically sold his only child.
The Empire fed, clothed, and raised him as a cog in the wheel. When he heard that the New Tenga decided to choose a different royal lineage and his former commander was taking participation in it, Yan rushed to leave the army.

An enormous dark red humanoid bull, but not in a muscular way. B’hemah, the spoiled son of a spoiled father. For a businessman family with a billion zee corporation, New Tenga was another project to conquer, improve and earn profit.

As a punishment B’hemah received only 4 Stars for the second and third tasks.
Intellectual level 4, gore metal bull, 5-star animal costing several hundred million zees. B’hemah was blessed to be born in a rich family and obtain such a rare body. His skin was impenetrable as a metal. His sharp horns could pierce through any flesh and crush and bone.
The bull wasn’t in the best shape though, he was fat and slow, but still fearsome.

Tasks:
Task 6: Achieved Status - Exceptional. 5 Stars
Total stars: 5 Stars ]
M.M was a dark horse in the race, no one ever saw him in New Tenga. Yan Ace knew him from his time in the Empire army. M.M. was a Rank 5 when Yan was a kid.
Nobody knew the reasons for M.M. wanting to take part in a competition. Several people attended a meeting on his behalf.
[ 5. Safo Nur - son of Princess Tala, grandson of the Great King Admaloo. Age - 18.
Tasks:
Task 7: Intellectual level 4, invisible (while in motion) Dogs. 4 Stars
Total stars: 4 Stars ]
Safo Nur was even more nervous after reading the holographic screens. He couldn’t imagine himself winning the fight against his opponents, especially without a resource. Two of them were fit, muscular, and army guys. The third one was an insanely fat bull, Safo was speechless. He already made plans to practice screaming “I give up!”, faster and louder.
He was sweating cold just by standing near them. A couple of times when they made eye contact with him, Safo tried to smile and greet the guys, only to receive a harsh, disdain stare for an answer.
‘Am I going to die here? After so much effort to get here, I will be crushed under the belly of a red bull.’ Safo was full of regrets.
{“Are you sure you can win a fight with these people, Safo?”} Luna was depressing the situation even more. {“Maybe I should find another vessel for me? Haha, no offense, haha.”}
In front of Safo was Kutch with a dejected expression. Safo was glad that he had a friend who was concerned about him, unlike O’rmon who seemed not to care at all.
When in fact, Kutch was crying inwardly, his precious puppies were counted as Safo's present to New Tenga. His uncle, Halazar, used them to put some Stars on Safo’s data. Puppies would be gifted and Kutch could not gain any profit out of them.
Achraf was thinking the same as Luna, to try to find some animal and hire psiora people's magic abilities to assist with transferring her from Safo’s potentially endangered body.
When the meeting was over, everyone was leaving to start preparation to fulfill the demands of the trial. Nobody had enough time to threaten or do harm to Safo now. They had important things to do instead.
Safo reunited with his companions when he felt a tap on his shoulder. Turning around he saw a handsome gazelle-man standing tall behind him. Knife-like ringed dark-brown horns, and reddish-brown coat, his hooves mutated to fingers making them extra hard. It was Yan Ace, a former Empire soldier.
"Umm... Hi?!"
