Volume 4 Hunter Exam Chapter 024 The Final Test
The number plate incident soon attracted the attention of the Hunters Association.
After returning, Netero, the president of the Hunter Association, appeared and took the candidates who passed the exam onto the airship.
When he looked at the identical number plate presented to him by the staff, he couldn't help scratching his scalp.
"Well, this is a headache."
To be honest, even he couldn't tell the difference between the two number plates.
Or rather, they are exactly the same.
At this time, Men Qi, who was standing next to him, insisted, "This is definitely the work of Emiya."
"Are you sure?"
"Ah, that guy has a special ability that can create food out of thin air, and even created a villa on Eye Island. Creating a number plate is nothing."
Menqi has been observing Emiya continuously. After all, the two of them can be said to have known each other through fighting.
Another examiner, Saci, said, "However, we currently have no way of distinguishing which one was made by him and which one is the number plate issued by our Hunter Association."
Since there was no way to tell, they couldn't declare Emiya a cheater.
Netero thought hard for a while, clapped his hands and said, "There is no other way. Let's announce to the public that both of them have passed the fourth test. After all, we have no way to tell whether the number plates are real or fake."
Saci said: "It seems that we are bound to suffer this loss."
"There's nothing we can do. Let's just leave it at that." Netero made the final decision.
Not long after, Emiya received a notice that he and Kurapika were promoted at the same time.
How should I put it? This result was not unexpected to Emiya. After all, he had already considered this when he made the number plate.
He originally thought that the Hunter Association would hesitate to offer one, but he didn't expect that they would eventually adopt the method of two people advancing.
After Emiya and Kurapika advanced, the list of those who passed the fourth test was removed.
Emiya, Niki no Kiyo, Furinji Hayato, Kosaka Shigure, Ichijo, Robin, Hisoka, Illumi, Gon, Kurapika, Killua, Leorio, Hanzo.
In the original book, there were nine people who passed the exam.
But now, there are thirteen people, and the others have all been eliminated.
Next is the president’s invitation to talk.
Nilot talked to the thirteen people one by one.
When it was Emiya's turn, Nileto deliberately placed two identical number cards on the table, "You really gave us a difficult problem."
"That's not a difficult question." Emiya said disapprovingly, "If I really wanted to make it difficult, I would send number plates to every candidate and let thirty people advance at the same time."
Netero was stunned and wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Then I really have to thank you for showing mercy."
If Emiya did that, the fourth test would be a no-brainer.
"Forget it, let's get to the point. Why do you want to become a hunter?"
Emiya said calmly: "I just want to take part in the Hunter Exam and see what it's like. I'm not too obsessed with becoming a Hunter."
"I see. Do you want to challenge yourself?"
Emiya curled his lips. Actually, this could not be said to be a challenge to himself. After all, he knew the contents of this Hunter Exam. If it was really a challenge to himself, he should take part in the next Hunter Exam.
Netero noticed this, but didn't say anything. He continued to ask, "Who do you think stands out the most among you?"
"I smile." Emiya said without hesitation: "After all, his strength is not worse than yours."
Netero said noncommittally: "Do you understand my strength?"
"I guess I understand." Emiya had read the plot and had some understanding of Netero's strength. "But it's a pity that you are no longer at your peak."
In the plot, Netero often said that his current strength is less than half of his peak period, which should not be a lie.
This shows that Nilot was indeed extremely powerful during his peak period.
Netero's eyes flickered several times, and he said with a smile: "When you get old, you should accept your age."
Emiya said: "I have a way to make you rejuvenate and return to your prime. I wonder if you are willing."
Netero smiled and did not answer Emiya's question. Instead, he said, "Last question. Among the twelve people, who do you least want to compete with?"
Seeing that the other party changed the subject, Emiya didn't care and said calmly: "No, it doesn't matter who I fight. Winning or losing is nothing to me. It doesn't matter whether I become a hunter or not."
Netero smiled bitterly, nodded and said, "Okay, you can go out then."
Emiya nodded, stood up and walked out, but when he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, turned his head and said to Netero: "If you change your mind in the future, you can come to me. If nothing unexpected happens, I will stay in the Sky Arena for a few days after the Hunter Exam."
Netero remained silent.
Emiya opened the door and walked out of the room.
Half an hour later, all the conversations were over and the candidates taking the exam were given three days of rest.
Three days later, the final test began.
Everyone was gathered in a hotel run by the Hunter Association's Review Committee. From now on until the end of the exam, no outsiders would enter or leave the hotel.
All the tables and chairs inside the hotel's banquet hall were cleared away, leaving only an empty room.
President Nilot announced the content of the final test in this hall.
The final test will be conducted in a one-on-one format.
The condition for passing the test is simple: you can win by winning one game.
The condition for winning is simple: make the opponent surrender without killing him.
In this way, you can win the game.
Of course, those who fail will not be eliminated, but can advance to the next round of competition. If someone keeps failing and loses in the end, he will become unqualified.
That is to say, among the thirteen, only one was unqualified.
The remaining twelve people can qualify and get a hunter's license.
After a brief explanation of the rules, Netero announced the start of the final test.
However, what surprised Emiya was that even with the addition of his own group of people, the first game of the competition still did not change much.
It’s still Hanzo VS Gon.
The process did not change much. Hanzo knocked Xiaojie unconscious easily, but the game could only end when the opponent said "I surrender."
So Hanzo had to wake up Xiaojie, hoping that he would admit defeat.
But there is no doubt that Xiaojie will never give up.
In addition, killing is not allowed in the competition. If someone kills, the person will be declared the loser. So even if Hanzo beat Xiaojie for several hours and even broke one of his arms.
But Xiaojie refused to admit defeat.
Hanzo was helpless with this stubborn guy.
If it were someone who was ruthless or narrow-minded, he would probably risk losing and just kill the other person directly.
But Hanzo is not that kind of person, and he can only admit defeat in the end.
But even so, Xiaojie was still not satisfied and shouted, "That won't work. Let's find a way to have a fair fight."
That's why Emiya doesn't like protagonists like Gon.
He refused to admit defeat because he couldn't kill anyone in the competition. Of course, he wouldn't admit defeat even if he could kill anyone in the competition.
After all, he is a stubborn guy.
What’s more important is that even though it was a one-on-one battle and he clearly couldn’t beat his opponent, he still refused to admit defeat. Even when the opponent admitted defeat, he was still not satisfied and wanted to have a fair fight with the opponent.
What bullshit.
You all lost, okay?
He was knocked unconscious by the opponent at the beginning of the game, and the strength of both sides was obvious at a glance.
Although it is a battle, he wants to find other ways to defeat the opponent to satisfy his idea that he can defeat the opponent.
Specifically, even though the opponent admitted defeat, Xiao Jie still wanted to win again so he asked the opponent to compete seriously. More importantly, he had to think of ways to make himself win happily.
How should I put it...
As expected of a twelve-year-old kid, it’s not surprising that he has such thoughts.
As a result, this guy was knocked unconscious by Hanzo's punch.
Emiya always felt that the serious Hunter Exam had become a joke because of this guy.
After the first game ended, the second game began.
Because of Netero's bad taste, the candidate for the second match is Emiya, and his opponent is none other than Kurapika, who was tricked by Emiya.
When Kurapika knew that his opponent was Emiya, he became full of energy.
Emiya asked, "Let me ask you in advance, if I win, you won't refuse to admit defeat like Gon, right?"
"Do you think I'm a child?" Kurapika said unhappily. "And I don't think I can lose."
Emiya couldn't help but laugh, "It seems that you don't understand the gap between us."
Kurapika's eyes turned cold, and he pushed the ground hard. He rushed in front of Emiya, clenched his right hand into a city fist, and hit Emiya's head.
However, when his fist was still a few centimeters away from Emiya's head, it suddenly stopped.
This wasn't something he was willing to stop.
Instead, Emiya used his telekinesis to directly fix Kurapika to the ground.
Kurapika kept swinging his fist, but he couldn't move forward even a little bit.
"Are you ready to admit defeat? Even though you can't move, you should be able to speak."
Kurapika said nothing, seemingly trying to think of a solution.
Emiya said calmly: "I can give you ten minutes. If you still don't admit defeat after ten minutes, I will break your spine and make you spend the rest of your life lying in bed."
As soon as he finished speaking, Emiya noticed that two people were looking at him with murderous intent.
One is Killua and the other is Leorio.
Maybe it was because his words just now angered these two people. As for Xiaojie, he is currently in a coma, so of course he will not release murderous intent towards Emiya.
