Wow this attendant who's watching me, by doing handstand finger push ups.
[4]
You do a backflip and land on your pinky. Balancing on your finger, you proceed to raise and lower your body about an inch.
This is all very impressive, the attendant tells you, but your results cannot be recorded unless you use the provided weights. Disappointed, you fall on your back with a sore pinky.
STRENGTH: [1]
You grab the violet weight and lift it above your head. Hey, not ba-
The weight changes from violet to blue and the sudden increase in weight sends your arm all the way down to the floor. And your finger is still sore...
The attendant marks this down on a clipboard and comments that it's surprising that you're a skilled a boxer when you're so weak. Perhaps the next test will show your true power.
Next up is an obstacle course testing your speed and agility.
OOO YES, LIFT THE DUMBELLS WITH MY MOOSKLES, YES
STRENGTH: [5] (auto-5 due to power)
You grab two weights and begin lifting oh yes brother. This goes on for some time before you notice they're gradually becoming heavier. And also changing color for some unknown, probably unrelated reason. Eventually it becomes too much even for you and the red weights fall out of your hands and leave a crack in the floor.
The next test is an obstacle course. Sounds easy for someone with your strength and stage presence.

I really don't know that a tumblebeaks is. I mean, what could it possible be-
Oh. Yeah, I guess it's like a tumbleweed made out of beaks. That's what you are and don't argue with me.
Anyway, you're in, kid. Go lift some magical weights to measure your strength in a way that is recorded but questionably actually has a mechanical effect.
Greg is confused by the weights - they look much easier to lift than the majority of the farm equipment he handled on Greg Farm. He decides to humor the attendants and lift the weights regardless, so as to not embarrass them.
"Weights heavy. Greg can lift, but is hard. Definitely not easy."
STRENGTH: [4]
Greg lift the weight. Surprisingly heavy. After a while, Greg get tried(?) of lifting small light weights. But Greg keep lifting, because why drop such small, insignificant challenge, even in the face of exertion?
Face dripping with sweat, you ask when you're allowed to put this down. You're told that it's whenever you get too tired to lift it. You carefully set down the orange weight.
Next test: Speed! You just have to get from one place to another really quickly. Sounds easy, right?
Turn in the form.

Anyone can kill people with guns, my man. That's what they do.
Application filled.
Lift the dumbbell, after I am told that I can drop it shot at it a few times.
STRENGTH: [6]
You lift the weight. You can feel it gradually increase in weight somehow, accompanied by its color slowly shifting from violet to red. After it reaches red, the weight beeps and returns to normal.
"It would appear that you have superhuman strength." The voice from above comments.
[6]
You pull out a fusion bazooka and fire it at the now inert weight. In a flash of light and a wave of heat everything within a few meters of the weight is annihilated.
Except the weight. It sits there, in a crater of red hot stone.
mocking you"Intriguing. Please proceed to the next test area: obstacle course."Follow it, then try to shoot lighting at a wall nearby.
[5]
You produce a large burst of electricity and direct it into the ground. It grounds.
First test: lifting, testing your strength.
Move air currently above the dumbbell below it, as well as air not currently below it. Hopefully the difference in pressure will force the dumbbell upwards
STRENGTH: [1]
Forcing the air to flow under the weight, you... fail to accomplish anything. It moves, a little.
Summon 5 doors, one for my head and one for each limb. Wear horse as armor. Do...what am I doing? Whats going on here?
If someone tries to attack me, summon a full bathroom on their head.
Nobody's attacking you, you stupid skele-
[4]
Right. As I was saying, nobody attacks you.
[1]
Rather than creating several small doors, you create one large one, which happens to use up all the available material of the horse. Now, rather than being trapped inside of a wooden horse, you are wedged inside of a wooden door, of the sort one might install inside their home.
Locate bright-eyed young hero.
You're hardly starved for choice, in that regard. There is no particulat shortage of young humans and other creatures who have bravely forged ahead to attempt to accomplish something they are incapable of doing, most of the time for some laudable goal.
Looking for anything in particular?
STRIKE UP CONVERSATION ABOUT SHEEP
[6]
You locate a cute person and begin to talk to them about sheep. The cute person is very interested. You get into it. In what feels like mere moments of conversation, you speak the Dread Sheep Words. Reality begins to unfurl around you and fleece overwhelms your senses. It also overwhelms the senses of the cute person, who you now share the senses of.
[6]
The Dread Sheep Lords have arrived. You are theirs. And they are yours. You baa. All is good. All is sheep.
Utilize a telekinesis eye ray to lift as many weights as possible.
And... hit on the fluffy trunked humanoid.
STRENGTH: [4]
You complement the black feathered humanoid and offer to take her out to dinner after the tournament. She blushes, which would be covered up by the feathers if you weren't a Beholder. She says that she doesn't actually have to eat, but you can meet her by the stands where they sell delicious live animals. There should be time to do so while the other entrants are fighting.
