Living in Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 117 Abuse of Power for Personal Gain

18th floor, a certain arena.

"Are there still so many people? I thought your exam would eliminate a lot of people?" Annie said to Elliott.

After all, if we start without telling you the exam questions, many people will probably be confused.

"There was a slight mishap, but that's not surprising, considering there are quite a few fighters from the Sky Arena here."

Elliott didn't think it was a big deal.

"I'm Annie, your second examiner," Annie introduced herself briefly.

Some of the test takers below had an "I knew it" expression on their faces.

Another contestant from the 200th floor.

Will the following exams be the same?

"Next, I will announce your second exam."

Anne didn't waste any time and announced the test questions directly.

The exam content was relatively simple.

"There are many fighters in this building, and what you need to do is obtain qualification certificates from them. You only need three to pass this test."

Before Annie could finish explaining the exam content, the students below immediately started shouting.

"How is that possible? All the fighters here are Nen users. How could we possibly obtain it from them?"

The one speaking was candidate number 107, Tian Ye.

He is also a fighter in the Sky Arena, but he hasn't reached floor 200 yet; he's currently fighting on floor 170.

The Women Fighters Alliance is a significant force in Kerry City, as it is composed of numerous female fighters.

Even female family members, such as wives of fighters from other martial arts styles, have joined this organization.

There are also special methods for awakening consciousness, which are said to involve massaging a small area to slowly open the pores and awaken consciousness.

This is a safe way to perform mindfulness rituals. Of course, if an ordinary person wants to have someone perform mindfulness rituals for them, they will definitely have to pay a high price.

Having watched matches that went over 200 floors, Tianye clearly understood the difference between Nen users and those who couldn't.

Even on the 170th floor, he had experienced Nen ability.

Even if you are not as strong as him, you can still use your Nen defense to keep fighting him.

Since he hadn't reached a high level and was a freelancer with little money, Tianye chose to take the Hunter Exam to learn Nen.

The word "念" was mentioned again, once again attracting the attention of many test takers.

"I hope no one interrupts me when I'm explaining the exam content. If it happens again, I will disqualify you from the exam."

Anne has an imposing presence.

It instantly silenced all the test takers.

Only Jin was marveling at how amazing the women here were.

No one dared to interrupt, or even whisper, for fear of angering the examiner.

It's not a big deal if ordinary examiners fail a candidate in the Hunter Exam.

Unless it's like Menchi in the anime, where not a single candidate passes, the Hunter Association won't intervene.

"Regarding the question from earlier, I need to say that as long as you have a way, you don't necessarily have to fight to obtain a certificate."

That's really a twisted sense of humor.

Elliott thought to himself.

Annie said that, but in reality, it was a completely different story. The people here were all fighters, and it was absolutely impossible to obtain it through any other means.

"Furthermore, if candidates want to compete for a qualification certificate, they need to go into the ring. Any private battles are not allowed, and violating the rules will result in immediate elimination."

In short, all the battles will take place on the arena. If the examinees are allowed to fight, they may very well destroy the entire building.

After all, quite a few test takers brought firearms.

The exam will last for 7 days.

"Now you can begin your operation."

"Does everyone receive a certificate?" one candidate asked.

"You'll have to find that yourselves."

Of course, not everyone can have a certificate of qualification, and there are also quantity restrictions on the certificates.

The maximum number of people allowed to pass the exam is three hundred.

This was the result of Annie being lenient; of course, she also believed that there would definitely not be three hundred in the end.

Soon, a group of test takers left in a rush and began moving around on different floors.

Anne's actions can be considered an abuse of power for personal gain.

They used the Hunter Exam to make a name for themselves as female fighters.

Every match will be recorded and filmed, and the Hunter Association can be used for publicity or to sell the footage to television stations.

Using videos of well-known Sky Arena players might be better for Sky Arena, but that's not necessarily true for the general public.

The Hunter Association has too much prestige.

Especially knowing that this is the Hunter Exam, many people will probably be interested.

There are no special recordings of the Hunter Exam.

King and Russell chose to start from the first layer.

"This is troublesome. If we stay here, we won't be able to rely on the family's resources," Russell said with a hint of regret.

"Yes!" Kim agreed.

If he could easily pass the exam, he would definitely make the same choice.

"So what do you plan to do now?" Russell asked Kim.

"Then we'll have to ask first. If possible, I certainly don't want to fight." Jin also refused to fight.

It wasn't that he didn't want to fight, but considering the existence of Nian, he felt the chances were slim.

As for Nian, Jin had already obtained some information from Russell.

At least I understand what it is now.

"Then let's split up." Russell decided to separate from Kim.

"Okay!" Jin agreed.

Starting from the first level, the approach is to directly ask questions; some candidates have already begun preparing for the competition.

Jin has also found a goal, which doesn't require too much trouble.

Basically, you only need to ask, and the other party will tell you whether the candidate has a certificate of qualification.

And almost all of them require combat.

Through observation, Jin discovered that not everyone is strong or possesses Nen.

Although he couldn't see the existence of Nen yet, he had this intuition when watching the battle.

However, I was truly surprised by the female fighters here.

Even the younger fighters are incredibly strong.

Having never undergone martial arts training, Jin is at a disadvantage in this area, relying at most on his physical advantages and sharp reflexes to fight.

Jin also tried out the ring match.

He wasn't very lucky; he chose a strong opponent and was easily defeated.

On the first day, Jin simply observed and got a general idea of ​​the situation.

But he soon came up with other methods, and he summarized two other ways to obtain the certificate.

One of them is still responding to the other party's demands, fighting, and giving it your all to gain the other party's approval.

Even if you lose, there is still a chance to get a certificate.

The other one is simple: identify the target, find out where the certificate is kept, and then find an opportunity to steal it.

Compared to Kim, his son, Xiao Jie, is better at dealing with women.
