"You failed" a cold voice penetrated Jayde consciousness.

Groggily Jayde woke up, trying to make sense of the words she just heard, suddenly recalling that she had just died, she jolted awake.

Jayde found herself lying on the floor in a small white room. Quickly sitting up and she looked down at her chest.

Jayde was amazed to find that her chest was just fine, there was no gaping hole in it, even her clothes were in perfect condition. All the cuts and bruises she had received during her life and death fight had disappeared.

Still patting her chest in disbelief, Jayde wondered if she had transmigrated again. Starting to feel a bit depressed thinking that she might have moved to another world or dimension again. Jayde heard White's voice.

"You have a choice, accept punishment and try again or quit and break your contract with the Protoss Divine System" White stated coldly.

Relieved to know that she hadn't transmigrated again, Jayde was really angry with White's so-called assessment. While she had misgivings about the whole Protoss system, Jayde also realized that she couldn't break the contract yet, she needed its help, she had little knowledge about how magic worked on this world, and she had enough self-knowledge to know that she was too weak to survive on Doha alone.

Nevermind she really couldn't stand how this guy looked down on her. There was no way in hell she was going to quit. Filled with determination Jayde responded.

"I want to redo your test"

"Very well, prepare for level one punishment"

Without a moment of delay, intense pain flooded Jayde body, The pain seared through her body, it felt like a branding iron. Without meaning to Jayde's body curled into a fetal position, all she could do was grit her teeth, holding back her screams.

The pain increased in waves, with small breaks giving Jayde the false hope that is had ended. Each peak of the burning pain robbed her of the ability to speak, even breathing had become difficult. It felt to Jayde as though her very blood had become acid, intent on destroying her from the inside out.

After what felt like eons, the "punishment" was finally over. Jayde was coated in cold sweat, panting she stood up, her legs felt like jelly.

"That was only a level one punishment," she thought to herself, she didn't think she could survive a level two punishment. Jayde made a note to avoid anything above level one.

"You have ten minutes to prepare for retaking the test" White's voice sounded through the room, and with that, a small partition appeared in the wall in front of Jayde.

Walking through the partition Jayde found herself in a small bathroom, taking a quick shower, Jayde gingerly put on her old clothes, walking back to the original room that she woke in, she sat down cross-legged and mediated, preparing herself mentally for the test. In the couple of minutes, she had available Jayde analyzed the fight with the monster wolves, trying to figure out their strengths and weaknesses.

"Time's up" and with White's abrupt announcement, Jayde found herself back in the prairie.

Jayde lost track of the number of times she "died", each time she avoided one way of dying the monster wolves would change tactics and kill her in another way. She felt like that she been fighting this pack for years.

Each time she "died" she would wake up in the same small room, that she had originally woken up in, accept her "punishment", shower then analyze the fight. With this, she came up with countless strategies and tactics to take on these beasts.

Finally, after much bloodshed, Jayde defeated the pack. Leaning heavily on her sword, her body coated in sweat and blood, her eyes glowing with pleasure.

"Finally I have beaten that sadistic bastards test," she thought to herself.

But Jayde had underestimated White sadistic streak, just then she heard a strange clicking sound, looking up sharply, she saw black shapes moving on the horizon.

"You got to be f*cking kidding me" she yelled out.

"Prepare for the second wave" White disembodied voice sounded through the landscape.

The monsters pack resembled something like ancient dinosaurs, they were extremely robust and had powerfully built jaws with very strong forelimbs, their forelimbs came equipped with retractable claws. The first digits on each paw were semi-opposable with an enlarged ten-inch serrated claw and with the digit was double jointed, meaning that this claw could be rotated in any direction. Their hind feet had four functional toes with sharp claws, that you could see where meant for rendering flesh from the bones. These creatures stood three and a half meters from head to tail and weighed on averaged around two to three hundred kilos in weight.

Looking at these monsters, Jayde was flabbergasted. These beasts made the previous monster wolves look like puppies.

Sighing deeply, Jayde lifted her sword and prepared for battle.
