A tense hush fills the exam hall as ranking screens flicker to life. Class 1A celebrates Azure Warden's top score. Then, chaos: Ironclad, Obsidian Claw, Pyra Blaze, Bronze Tusk, and Void Sovereign thunder down the corridor, dodging grasping mechanical arms after failing five subjects once more. Their flight is a symphony of panic and scraping metal. Ironclad: EVERYBODY, EVACUATE! EVACUATE! Obsidian Claw: I CAN'T BELIEVE I LET YOU CONVINCE ME TO SKIP THE STUDY MODULES! Pyra Blaze: SHUT IT AND PUSH THOSE PISTONS! Bronze Tusk: I DON'T WANT TO BE RECYCLED! Void Sovereign: THEN STOP STATING THE OBVIOUS AND MOVE.
