Chapter 19
Episode 19
The way back to the dormitory.
Shin Yuseong was silently walking along the sidewalk after a stormy day.
Sumire and Lee Si-woo, who protect Shin Yoo-seong’s side. The three were connected by the commonality of class F. Lee Si-woo raised his voice as if the afterglow he had experienced in the arena was still daunting.
“Two living legends! Seeing that with my own eyes!”
Excited Lee Si-woo let’s chat excitedly. Sumire walked a little faster, matching the footsteps of Shin Yoo-seong.
“To beat a class A student. W As expected, Mr. Shin Yoo-seong…is amazing.”
sneak
Saying that, Sumire stared at Shin Yuseong’s hair as if she were looking at treasure.
And then, very occasionally, if Shin Yooseong’s hair falls out. Sumire picked up a strand of hair and carefully stored it in her pocket as if it were a treasure.
“If there was a real meteor, would class F not even know? do you know I’ll finally get out of the bottom of the anti-battle match!”
Since Gaon Academy was established, even if the grade changes, the F class has always maintained the lowest rank.
Of course, from time to time, there were students with exceptional skills in Class F, but it was impossible to overcome the class gap.
Each class has 30 students.
It was not a gap that could be overturned by one student’s high level of ability.
The fierce competition is the story of class S and class A, who have excellent skills. Depending on the strategy of the top class, high-level matches that are hard to believe even for students often came out.
On the other hand, the test against half of the lower ranks is a history of defeat. Lee Si-woo looked at Shin Yoo-seong with her eyes shining.
“I believe in Yooseong!”
Then Sumire, who was next to her, cautiously opened her mouth.
“Me too… I believe in Shin Yoo-seong too!”
“thank you.”
Shin Yoo-seong answered calmly and thought about the anti-war. After the sparring with former ‘Seven Number’ Park Soo-hyun, Shin Yoo-seong ended the distinction about the students’ skills to some extent.
‘…The biggest problem is that there are 30 students in the class. Dealing with everyone alone is close to impossible.’
Right now, even in class A, Kim Eun-ah, who was ranked second in the grade ranking, was holding on confidently. But what if you are escorted by the talented class A students?
Yooseong Shin remembered the students of Class F he saw during class. All of them had too low proficiency for their characteristics.
Even with the same F-class trait, the efficiency varied greatly depending on how they trained and accumulated proficiency.
‘But it’s impossible for me to change everyone.’
There was a limit to the amount of time Shin Yoo-seong could invest for the anti-battle match.
‘All I need right now is just a few people who will stand by my side…’
After thinking, Shin Yoo-seong opened his mouth while looking at Lee Si-woo and Sumire.
“The next opponent is class D, right?”
“uh? yes?”
As if Siwoo Lee was looking for an answer, he glanced at Sumire. Instead of opening her mouth, Sumire nodded.
Shin Yooseong smiled at the two of them.
“No class D. I’ll make you win the whole lower class.”
Shin Yuseong’s words were not bluffing.
Shin Yoo-seong confirmed the skills of Park Soo-hyun, a former member of Class A and number 7. In addition, Shin Yu-seong’s grade ranking now is 3rd. It was one of the pinnacles belonging to the Academy’s Seven Number.
“Really me!?”
“Oh oh! good! good!”
Let Sumire and Lee Siu’s eyes shine. Shin Yoo-seong kept smiling and added words.
“Instead, in order to do that, you guys have to be stronger than you are now.”
Shin Yuseong remembered all the hell training he had learned from King Kwon. So it was not a job to teach at least two of Lee Siu and Sumire.
“Are you confident?”
For some reason, Lee Si-woo and Sumire’s spine felt chilly at Shin Yoo-seong’s kindly question.

Academy City’s Hunter Association branch.
Kang Yoo-chan, the president of the association, stopped by his branch to visit Gaon Academy. Meirin hurriedly ran out, stopping what she was doing.
“The president of the association? What are you doing here?”
“I just stopped by on my way down to Academy City. I had a very good viewing… but there is no one to chat with, what?”
Meirin, quick to notice Yuchan Kang’s smile, nodded.
“I think the King’s disciple really liked you.”
“I’ve seen many hunters so far, but such an unusual battle… It’s the first time in my life as a hunter. Especially… the way you treat your traits!”
Shin Yuseong’s F-class attribute [Increased Concentration]. Kang Yoo-chan, the president of the association, was very impressed with the way Shin Yoo-seong used his talents.
The level of characteristics is determined according to the criteria classified by the association to the last. Like Adela, who can convert mana into cold energy, she could be given an S-class, or she could be given an A-class, like Kim Eun-ah, who can convert mana into strong electricity but can’t control it depending on her mood.
In any case, it is the standard established by the Association that determines the superiority of characteristics. And it was a device that inspected the characteristics.
Unless the standards of the association were absolute, the results were different depending on how F-class characteristics were used.
Kang Yoo-chan, the president of the association, continued by recalling the battle of Shin Yu-seong.
“Increased concentration… At first glance, it sounds like you’re using insignificant traits one hundred percent or one thousand percent. Success in mana control, which is impossible for ordinary hunters.”
Kang Yoo-chan, an old man with white hair, brings up a story about Hunter. I was excited like a child.
“In battle, you saved all your senses! … Come to think of it, how did that child pass the Yuwonhak training that even S-classes couldn’t pass?”
In response to Kang Yoo-chan’s question, Mei-rin muttered the name of Shin Yoo-seong’s characteristic.
“Concentration…”
“Yes. You’ve surpassed your own limits with your traits. Thanks to that, I was able to endure Yuwonhak’s training and transcend my characteristics.”
Like Yu Won-hak said.
Shin Yuseong didn’t need a separate moment of consciousness when using the attribute. In order to survive in Yu Won-hak’s training, Shin Yoo-seong’s characteristics transcend the limit of concentration at every moment. It was as natural as breathing.
Kang Yoo-chan grasped everything about Shin Yoo-seong in Dalian he saw for the first time.
“Perhaps it won’t be displayed as a device. She must have something more than F-class traits…”
Meirin was making an interesting face at Kang Yoo-chan’s explanation.
“Transcendence of characteristics was always thought of as the story of active soldiers who had cleared dungeons and towers.”
“Well, usually. Because it is rare for students to experience a crisis. That’s why…”
Kang Yoo-chan spoke to Meirin in a more serious voice than usual.
“I hope you, the manager of Academy City, will watch over me with interest. If there is anything unusual, report it to me.”
“yes. All right.”
“And about the dungeon strategy tournament we’re holding this time…”
Kang Yu-chan put his mana in his eyes. Meirin flinched and shuddered. The unspoken pressure that the pinnacle master shows with mana.
Kang Yoo-chan calmly continued.
“…The dungeon with the silver moon sword as a reward was quite advantageous to the Chinese team. Hehe, maybe it’s a coincidence?”
“Sorry! That’s…”
Meirin was offered some kind of deal by the Skyscraper Academy’s principal. What they wanted, instead of ‘a little convenience’, Meirin was able to get a huge amount of back money as the manager of Academy City.
“I understand. If you’re a good student, you’ll want to give them more opportunities. Actually, I also gave Yuwonhak some information! This can be happen! it can be! haha!”
Kang Yoo-chan puts his hands behind his back as usual and laughs. Meilin shook her head in a cold sweat.
Kang Yu-chan looked down at May-Lin and asked in a voice that was cooler than before.
“But let me tell you. Since it is an association meeting, shouldn’t I, as the president of the association, know the circumstances?”
“I will keep that in mind.”
“It’s just an old man’s mess, so don’t worry too much about it.”
I left the association with my hands behind my back.
“Whoa…”
Meirin finally relaxed and let out a breath.
“To think that the president of the association now likes freshmen…”
I went looking for Shin Yoo-seong out of curiosity about being a disciple of King Kwon. What captivated Kang Yoo-chan was purely Shin Yoo-seong’s outstanding skills.
Mei Lin sat down on a chair and crossed her legs. A china dress flowing down her legs.
“…Shin Yuseong.”
Mei Lin added Shin Yoo-seong’s name to the special management of Academy City.

The strange ceiling of Gaon Academy.
Park Soo-hyun struggled to raise his heavy body. Park Soo-hyun put the palm of her hand on her head and put her head down to organize her memories.
What is certain is that he was defeated by Shin Yuseong in Dalian. And it was clear that he was lying on the bed in the infirmary.
‘This is the infirmary…’
At least, it was the first time since Park Soo-hyun entered the school. It was rare for Park Soo-hyun, who had skills at the level of number 7, to suffer such a crushing defeat that she was brought to the infirmary.
However, Park Soo-hyun was defeated.
‘I… lost to an F-class?’
hard to believe facts.
Park Soo-hyun’s ability to manipulate water was at its best in a pool full of water. In addition, Park Soo-hyun brought in and used a shield barrier, a hunter product.
However, they were defeated by an overwhelming difference in skill.
“Ugh…”
Park Soo-hyun grabbed his shoulder.
I finished the treatment with the nanomachines, but the pain was still there. Defeated by Shin Yoo-seong, Park Soo-hyun ruined a lot of things. If she had only won against Shin Yoo-seong, she would have been able to impress Kim Eun-ah, the only daughter of Shinsung Group, and find the prestige of ‘former Seven Number’.
‘…But I ruined everything.’
Eudeuk-
Park Soo-hyun gnashed his teeth in anger.
It was not Park Soo-hyun’s style to just suffer like this. Park Soo-hyun’s method was to use all means to take revenge, even if he was criticized for being dirty even if it was not fair.
‘Class F…’
Soo-hyun frowned and shook her head. He thought of using his wealth and status to feed Shin Yoo-seong somehow.
‘Somehow that cheeky bastard’s nose…’
Park Soo-hyun, who got up from the bed, smiled as if something came to mind.
‘Come to think of it, there was a match against the class…’
Let’s think about it. Park Soo-hyun recalled someone’s face. Blowing your nose without getting your hands dirty. That was Park Soo-hyun’s specialty.
