Now only about 1200 students were standing for the third test.
Sharan pointed his right hand towards the tall tree around 500 meters away, "In the third test, you have to touch that tree. First 300 children will be admitted in the academy."
All students were confused. The test is so simple, They have to run fast and that's all.
But suddenly a strong pressure is applied on them. It is as if a load of around 50 kilograms is put on them.
Sharan continued with a mischievous smile, "Oh! I forgot to tell you, You have to pass the third test under my pressure. Also, the pressure will keep increasing after every 50 meters by 5 kilograms and you are not allowed to attack one another."
"Now start" He shouted without giving them much time to think.
All the children started running. After so long being soaked by the rich energy, they can handle this much pressure.
After covering the first fifty meters, the pressure suddenly increased and some children on the end of their rope fell on their knees. But many students continued. Vidyut is also running but his face is showing some struggle. Vani is running just ahead of him, looking back at Vidyut periodically but her face is not showing much struggle. There is also a different coloured aura surrounding her and she is looking as if she is walking in clouds. In the same way, the different coloured aura surrounds some other students. After the first three hundred meters, more than 500 children have already fainted. A boy with blond hair who is around the same height as Vidyut is running at the forefront. His muscles are bulging and he is running as if some gorilla. Vani is running just behind him. It looks like she is floating in the clouds. Vidyut is in the last 200 students who had covered only around two hundred meters. His heart is beating fast and everything in his eyesight is getting dim. He feels as if he will lose his balance at any time. His breathing is also irregular. Everything in his eyes darkened and he staggered.
"Looks like I can't get admitted at Vir Academy. I am sorry Mom and Dad, I disappointed you." Views in front of him blurred and he lost control of his body. Just as he was accepting his failure, the golden pupils in his eyes enlarged and brightened. His eyes became completely golden and energy around, flowed towards his body. He is unable to understand what is happening, but he can feel his consciousness. After some moments his eyesight cleared and he saw a blue-colored aura around him. It was pouring into his body from all directions. Vidyut felt his body becoming stronger. He felt a surge of energy in his body and the pressure reduced.
He started running and thought, "Is this the special talent that was told by Dad? But what exactly is my talent?"

"No, I must focus on the test first.", He shook his head to get rid of all unnecessary thoughts and increased his pace. After the boy at the forefront crossed 400 meters, he turned his head to look behind and got amused. He saw Vidyut running as if there was no pressure on him. He is running like a leopard crossing other students at a fast speed. Seeing this, the blond-haired boy also increased his speed but Vidyut was also increasing his speed. Suddenly Vidyut's head felt like being pierced. He knew he was at his limit. This was the best chance to use all his remaining strength at once.
Pressure after 400 meters has increased to ninety kilograms. No ordinary five-year-old child can handle this pressure. Many children also awakened their special powers under this power. But special powers consume spiritual power and hence once the spiritual power is completely drained, Special powers can not be used.
Vidyut was able to guess it. So he used all of his remaining spiritual power at once to maximise the effect of the spiritual power. He felt like his head was being drilled with a needle but still kept on utilising the spiritual power. The golden colour in his eyes became more dazzling for a moment and the energy around him condensed even more. His speed increased and suddenly his control over his body was lost and his perception weakened. He fell on the ground on his head, rolled three times on the ground and fainted.
Everybody gathered around Vidyut. Elder Namita suddenly appeared on his left side. "This kid has some good decision-making abilities. Good, Very good."
Vani came running toward Vidyut panting intensely. She was worried and also surprised. This brother of hers, who was three months younger than him and who always seemed to be very easygoing and passive was running like a leopard and crossing every other person in his way. She can't forget the determination she saw in his dazzling golden eyes.
She was more surprised seeing him so active and dedicated for the first time in her life.
Suddenly a calm voice entered her ears, "Don't worry! He will be fine after a short rest. His head is not harmed and only spiritual power is drained."
Vani looked at her and nodded."Thank you, Aunt!"
Namita smiled and announced, "All the tests have been conducted and the results will be announced after a week."
*******
A bed is placed on the side of the room. Some shelves are present at the right of the bed at some distance and sunlight is falling on the floor through the window. A fan is fit on the ceiling which is not moving. On the bed, a boy is lying with a blanket covering him from feet to shoulders.
His eyelids moved and he opened his eyes slowly. At the same time, the door of the room opened and a woman entered the room. Seeing the boy she came near him and hugged him. "Vidyut, Are you okay?"
He also hugged her back and replied, "I am fine Mom."
Then after a moment, he asked, "Did I pass or not?"
"You still care about success or failure. What if something happened to you? " Neeta scolded with tears filling up in her eyes.
"Okay Okay, What happened has already happened. You should praise your son for his performance in the test." A voice came from behind.
It was Sumit, Vidyut's father. There was a slight smile on his face.
Neeta glared at him angrily and his smile faded. He suddenly changed his expression, "You silly boy, Do you not care about your mother? How can you be so reckless to use all your spiritual power for a normal test." He scolded.
Then he looked at Neeta with a nervous expression. Neeta was looking at him even more angrily.
"Do you think of me as a fool?" She screamed in anger and Sumit was just ready to run out of the room when suddenly he was pushed inside the room.
He turned back to see it was Yamini.
"Are you both bullying my nephew?"She said with a wide smile on her face.
"Congrats on getting first place in the academy test.", She said further.
Vidyut watched her dumbfoundedly blinking his eyes. "Me"
"Yeah you, You ran so fast and then you fell just before the tree and started spinning and reached it. Hmph, what an idiot?"
It was Vani who spoke standing at the door.
