Episode 102 – Pro Hunter Exam (2)
A short break after the written exam.
After checking the test scores, the test takers gathered together and talked about this and that about the written test.
“Crazy… what’s the difficulty of this written test?”
“I know yeah. I was prepared to say that the difficulty would be difficult… but isn’t this just crazy?”
“It’s not like you’re crazy, but you think you’re out of your mind?”
The subject matter was none other than the atrocious test difficulty.
In the original pro hunter test, the written test was a common sense level of difficulty that you must know as a pro hunter.
However, the difficulty of this written test that I took is common sense.
It was not a joke, it was a Ph.D. level of difficulty.
That would be the case, too, starting with conceptual issues such as the introduction to mana science to be studied by researchers.
Even issues related to the Cataclysm era.
This was not a level that was made to be solved at the level of students.
No, it was a level of difficulty that would make you shake your head even if you brought professional hunters right away.
“By the way, what the hell is Kim Seo-joon who got 100 points for this?”
However, Seo-jun was the only one who received a perfect score in such an atrocious difficulty.
“I don’t know. don’t ask I got goosebumps when I saw that too.”
“What is Seojun Kim really doing? Are you really an unapproachable irregular?”
The test takers who came out were buzzing with stories about Seo-jun.
And it wasn’t much different from Seojun’s group gathered here.
“100 points! 100 points!”
As soon as Su-yeon saw Seo-jun, she opened her surprised rabbit eyes and shouted.
The expression on his face, which seemed like he couldn’t believe it, seemed quite shocking.
“Uh, how did you manage to solve all those problems?”
Soo-yeon asked Seo-jun with burning eyes.
“The first problem… How did you solve the problem of the properties of the sustainable phenomenal world? No, what is the answer?”
Seeing Soo-yeon like that, Seo-joon smiled slightly.
And Merlin’s voice, which sounded like an auditory hallucination… That is, he gave the explanation of the correct answer he had figured out with Insight [S].
“what?”
Then Su-yeon’s expression suddenly began to be dazed.
Then, as if thinking for a moment, he looked down.
“You can… think like that…?”
He nodded slowly, as if he had never thought of it that way.
And then burst.
“Oh, brother, what the hell…?”
Soo-yeon’s expression began to turn into shock.
That would be the case because the concept Seo-jun just explained was a concept that could only be conceived when he reached the level of his teacher, a demon.
In other words, Seo-jun’s intellectual ability was comparable to that of a demon.
Of course, it could be said that it was Merlin’s knowledge, not Seo-jun’s.
Seojun only borrowed a little of Merlin’s knowledge based on his insight [S].
However, from Su-yeon’s point of view, who was unaware of such circumstances, it was nothing short of astonishing.
“Dae, how the heck…? Oppa, what are you really doing…?”
“No, what…”
Seojun just laughed awkwardly.
“Captain, where is the real limit…”
Even Min-yul, who was listening quietly from the side, shook his head as if he was getting sick of it.
“Come to think of it, how many points did Minyul oppa get? I didn’t see it on the list.”
“me? I am 50.5 points. It was barely over half a threshing.”
To Soo-yeon’s question, Min-yul answered with a pleasant smile.
It wasn’t a high score, but considering that the overall average was 45 points, it wasn’t a score that was lower than the average.
and.
“Who is Hayoon? How many points did Ha-yoon get?”
Lee Ha-yoon looked slightly surprised at Su-yeon’s question.
Then he slowly turned his head to the side and muttered.
“…dot.”
A voice leaking out like a mosquito.
“huh? How many points?”
“3, 32 points…”
Suyeon paused at Lee Ha-yoon’s words that leaked out as if she could barely hear them.
And Seojun and Minyul also hesitated.
Suddenly, a quarrelsome atmosphere descended, and a strange silence flowed.
“…”
“…”
“…”
The greatest talent ever in the history of pro hunters.
Apparently, the other talent didn’t bloom.

The subject that followed the written test was none other than basic physical fitness.

A professional hunter basically meant someone who raided dungeons and fought monsters.
It is said that the meaning as a job has faded now, but the essence has not changed.
Therefore, as a professional hunter, strong physical strength is the basis of the basics.
Accordingly, the Pro Hunter test was a method of evaluating the basic physical strength by dividing it into four categories of ‘stamina, muscle strength, quickness, and agility’ and evaluating each item with an appropriate test.
“The first is… a fitness test.”
And the first physical fitness item was none other than a physical fitness test, and it was the same as the Hunter Mill mock test.
In the Hunter Mill mock test, it was to cover a distance of 3 km in 5 minutes.
But in this Pro Hunter test.
“10 km in 10 minutes?”
I had to cover 10 km in 10 minutes.
If you don’t pass 10 km in 10 minutes, the evaluation ends.
In a word, the main factor in the physical fitness evaluation this time was how many times he ran 10 km in 10 minutes.
First of all, in order to run 10 km in 10 minutes, you had to run 1 km in 1 minute based on simple calculations.
This meant that it had to run at a speed of 60 km/h.
And in order to get a perfect score, you had to do it more than 60 times.
In other words, you have to run 600 km at a speed of 60 km/h to get a perfect score.
Speed is also speed, but there were considerable physical problems.
It was, of course, a level that ordinary people could not even dream of.
Even active A-class hunters, as well as tolerable S-class hunters, cannot guarantee a perfect score.
“What is the difficulty level of this Pro Hunter test?”
“It’s like the previous written test, so it’s not a ‘significantly’ level, right?”
As expected, words began to emerge among the test takers.
“I thought they were serious when they said that there would be no perfect scorers?”
“Even so, what difficulty level is this…”
“Somehow… this year, an A-rank hunter gave priority to dungeon raids for the next five years. It was all for a reason.”
Dungeon raid priority literally meant the right to raid dungeons first.
Now that pro hunters are almost saturated.
Reserving a dungeon went beyond fierce competition and almost resembled a war.
Even if it was Seojun right now, when he was a student, all the dungeons that made money were taken away, so the limit was only 2 per day.
If that was the case even during his student days, there was no need to mention the world of professional hunters.
However, if you had a dungeon raid priority, you were given the right to raid any dungeon first.
In other words, it is the right to be the first to reserve a dungeon, so that is an unconventional benefit.
“That’s actually a condition that Kim Seo-joon made.”
“Well, in the original way, Kim Seo-joon was definitely an A-rank hunter. But since I gave up on that, Kim Seo-joon should have this much merit.”
“By the way… wouldn’t it be difficult for Kim Seo-joon to get a perfect score at this level?”
The test takers started talking about Seo-joon again.
“Soon the exam will begin. Please finish all preparations.”
Soon after, at the call of the official, the test takers prepared for the exam one by one.
And Seo-jun also got up from his seat and headed to the basic physical fitness test center.
After a little time like that, Seo-joon was able to stand on the track in the exam hall.
As Seo-jun approached the test-takers who were taking the exam together, each of them glanced at Seo-jun with nervous expressions.
And Seo-joon’s expression didn’t look very good.
‘As expected, even Kim Seo-joon isn’t sure.’
‘I thought it was a monster, but it doesn’t seem like it.’
Each of the test takers nodded their heads, thinking the same thing.
‘What if I beat Kim Seo-joon here…?’
And there were also test takers who harbored vain greed in the appearance of such Seo-joon.
Beep!
In my thoughts, the sound of the beginning of the test came.
Tadadak.
tadak.
Each test taker started running, adjusting their pace.
It was important to go fast, but it was also important how long it went.
however.
Aaaaaang!!!
Suddenly, a huge roaring sound came from behind.
And then, with the sound of the wind wheezing, something passed by.
“what?”
“What just passed?”
Bewildered for a while.
Beep.
[3:58]
Suddenly, an incomprehensible record appeared on the screen.
It was also because the record on the electronic signboard came to mind after running 10km.
In a word, it meant that someone covered 10 km in 3 minutes and 58 seconds.
Faaaaang! Paaang!
And there was a continuous sound like something exploding somewhere.
Beep.
[3:57]
Beep.
[3:59]
Beep.
[3:56]
“What, what…?”
“Hey, what the hell is going on?”
“Isn’t the machine broken?”
Applicants, as well as those involved in the field, witnessed the bizarre sight.
Even the spectators who watched it.
They all looked confused, as if they couldn’t understand.
“Kim Seo-joon…? Come to think of it, where is Seojun Kim?”
Someone’s question at that time.
It was only then that people were able to recognize the existence of the invisible Seo Jun.
Then they could see Seo-joon running through the track as if he were cutting through space.
Seo-joon almost flew into the air and shot his body away.
There was almost no time to step on the ground, and sometimes when I did.
Aaaaaang!
At that time, a frightening sound was heard from Seo-jun’s body.
As soon as I heard the sound of the gong, Seo-joon’s new model suddenly disappeared.
And after such a little time.
Beep.
[3:53]
A nonsensical record came to mind on the electronic display board.
“What, what…”
“Um, what is that…”
When everyone couldn’t keep their mouths shut about that ridiculous record.
‘It’s a little tight…’
Seo-joon didn’t feel that it was that difficult.
Of course, that didn’t mean it was easy.
It wasn’t that bad level.
It is also true that Seo-joon had to perform the following tasks in order to listen to Jang Sam-bong’s footwork lecture.
– Maintain a speed of 300 km/h for 30 seconds. [0/30]
I had to repeat it every day so I could listen to the lecture that day.
Besides, the current progress rate of Seojun’s Jang Sambong lecture is a whopping 61.9%.
Because of that, the cause and effect of the daily task also changed, and these days I had to maintain it for about 10 minutes to listen.
And now, the record of nearly 4 minutes that Seo-joon is updating was a record that could only be reached at 150 km/h.
Compared to Jang Sam-bong’s task, it is about half the level.
In addition, with the opening of Samdanjeon (三丹田), Seojun had about half of the power of Gongcheong Petroleum (空淸石乳).
With the addition of the endless power of mana, Seo-joon was literally flying around.
Faaaaang! Faaaaang!
“This crazy…”
“Sah, for the first time in history, they said that all test takers could get 0 points… You said that wasn’t a joke…?”
“The absolute evaluation was truly a godsend…”
Faaaaang! Aaaaaang!!
Faaaaang! Aaaaaang!!
Beep.
[3:21]
Beep.
[2:56]
Beep.
[2:54]
Beep.
[2 minutes 51 seconds]
Besides, somehow it started to speed up rather than slow down as time went on.
By the time the 40 laps were over, Seo-joon was running the track at a speed that was almost invisible.
Aaaaaaaaa!!!
“…”
“…”
“…”
The test takers just stared blankly, forgetting that they were taking the same exam as Seo-jun.
And it’s ‘Basic Stamina – Stamina.’ was not limited to
Continued pro hunter test, ‘basic physical strength – muscle strength’.
Deed Dede Deuk!!!
“one!”
Loud shouts resounded throughout the exam hall, accompanied by the sound of muscles bursting.
All the students in the test room looked at the source of the sound with a bewildered expression.
“two!”
What they saw was Seo-joon doing squats with a huge weight hanging on them.
No matter how heavy the weight was, the iron bar made of special alloy bent like a candy toe and seemed to touch the ground soon.
However, the person who actually carried the weight, Seo Jun-eun.
“three!”
He continued squatting without frowning.
“No, that’s ridiculous…”
“Is that… the right person?”
I was able to finish the strength test while listening to the exclamations of people bursting out here and there.
That would be the case, and the weight Seo-joon was holding now reached a whopping 2 tons.
Converted to kg, it was an enormous weight of up to 2,000 kg.
Deed Dede Dede Deuk!!
“four!”
However, Seo-joon was carrying the weight casually.
That would be the case, because to Seo-joon, who was trained by Hercules’ daily tasks, it was no different from an ordinary daily task.
-20 km canter. [0km/20km].
– 500 squats. [0/500].
– 200 push-ups. [0/200].
– 300 sit-ups. [0/300].
– 150 pull-ups. [0/150].
<This task is only measured with a weight of 1 ton or more.>
This also had to be repeated every day so that I could listen to that day’s lecture.
Even now, the progress rate of Seojun’s Hercules lecture is a whopping 74.7%.
As a result, causality has increased these days, and the weight has increased to 3 tons.
I’m going to go to the middle of the day!!!
“Seet!”
However, since you only need to listen to 2t here, it was quite comfortable.
“Monster, monster…”
“That’s a monster…”
There was no significant difference in the agility and agility tests of the basic physical fitness that followed.
It was none other than avoiding the shooting balls, and the main evaluation factor was how long you could endure without getting hit.
And it was a way to measure the time and score it.
Tutu tu tu tu tu!
Other test takers couldn’t come to their senses at the balls pouring down like a shower.
“Damn it!”
Beep.
[2 minutes 33 seconds.]
“How can I avoid this!”
“It’s fast, but there are too many!”
Most of them ended in about 3 minutes, and in all cases, it was not more than 5 minutes at the longest.
but.
Tutu tu tu tu tu tu!
Hiss, hiss!
Seo-joon was leisurely dodging the pouring balls.
In the first place, everything was organized in Chiron’s sense line.
Chiron’s senses, which could not escape even the ignorance of selflessness, were able to clearly recognize the flying balls.
In addition, Seo-joon’s spirited movements harmonized with Jang Sam-bong’s footwork.
To be honest, compared to the transcendental mock test, it was at the level of yawning.
Seo-joon could have done it all day with just words.
“Hey, hey… it doesn’t seem to make any sense anymore, so let’s do that…”
“Oh, is that so?”
In the end, it was only after 30 minutes that Seo-joon was able to get off his seat after a request from an official to stop.

<Course 2 – Basic Physical Fitness>
[1st place] – Seojun Kim (100 points)
[2nd Place] Lee Ha-yoon (82 points)
[3rd place] – Immigration rate (75 points)
[4th place] – Siwoo Jeong (71 points)
.
.
.
That’s how the first day of the pro hunter test ended with a huge ripple effect.
#
VIP room located inside the Pro Hunter test center.
‘Shinhwa, Garam, Brawl Abbey, Mugunghwa’ gathered in a luxuriously decorated room. The heads of the guild couldn’t believe the test results that came to mind.
“Eh, what is this…?”
“This can’t be… can’t it?”
I rubbed my eyes as if it could never happen, but the result did not change.
Their expressions went beyond surprise and began to be colored with astonishment.
“This, is this possible…?”
When the first written test results came out.
They couldn’t help but doubt their eyes.
He also thought that it would end without Kim Seo-joon being able to go beyond writing.
The difficulty level of this written test was literally atrocious.
Unless it was Maseong or his disciple Jeong Ji-min, he could never get a perfect score.
However, Kim Seo-joon showed off a perfect score.
furthermore.
“How about basic physical strength…?”
The same was true for the basic physical fitness course that was taken after that.
It was a test designed in the first place so that there would be no perfect score.
However, the results they faced were all perfect.
And there was another reason that surprised me so much.
It was because the perfect score was based on the people gathered here.
The difficulty of the test was configured according to the level of the four major guild leaders in Korea.
And these are active S-class hunters who are at the forefront of the professional hunter world.
In a word, the fact that Kim Seo-joon received a perfect score meant that Kim Seo-joon was equal to their level in terms of basic physical strength.
No, it contained the possibility that it could be more than that.
Even students who haven’t become pro hunters yet.
“No, that’s ridiculous…”
“How the hell…”
Therefore, the impact they received was bound to increase.
“Didn’t you say you would never get a perfect score?”
Startle!
Everyone trembled at the sound of the heavy voice.
Ryu Jin-cheol, the head of the Black Dragon Guild, ranked No. 1 in Korea.
The force he exhaled weighed down even the air in the room.
Garam’s Jung Yoon-mi and Mugunghwa’s Do Min-seok shouted as if making excuses.
“Hey, don’t worry! There was a setback in the plan, but it wasn’t completely wrong.”
“No, that’s right! Isn’t the Pro Hunter exam over yet?”
As Do Min-seok said, the pro hunter test was not over yet.
Kim Seo-joon received perfect marks in only two subjects.
There were still four subjects left in the Hunter exam, and it was enough if only one subject was not given a perfect score.
Ryu Jin-cheol took a moment of sadness at the excuses that were not the two excuses.
Then he slowly turned around and said.
“I heard that Dream Academy is turning into a guild after the Pro Hunter exam. Since the director is B-level, I think Kim Seo-joon will be the head.”
Jincheol Ryu continued.
“And the director will also join that guild. No matter how stupid you are, I don’t think you know what this means.”
At Ryu Jin-cheol’s eerie words, the four chiefs slowly nodded.
The director of Dream Academy, Seoyoon, was none other than the granddaughter of Geomseong.
And for Seoyoon to belong to a certain guild, it actually meant that the guild had a sword star as its back.
A guild with a sword star on its back.
Even large guilds that had monopolized rankings from 1st to 5th for decades could not easily touch them.
“If Kim Seo-jun acquires an A-class hunter here…”
Seojun will create a guild, gather his forces and increase his strength.
Originally, checks should be included in the process, but it is impossible if there is a sword star’s back ship.
In addition, the priority of dungeon raids for the next 5 years, which was given out due to the president of the association.
It was literally the first ever guild to be born.
It was a huge crisis that could shake the cartel that had been going on for decades.
gulp.
It was only then that those who recognized the seriousness of the problem swallowed their saliva.
Jincheol Ryu looked back slowly and said with a twinkle in his eyes.
“Stop it at all costs.”
