Episode 15
.
When Shin Yuseong ca out of the cave, the warm sunlight of the afternoon shone brightly on the golem’s core. At the sa ti, the golem’s mana buried in Shin Yuseong was scattered in the cool wind.
A quiet forest unfolds before your eyes.
A loud siren broke the silence and resonated throughout Jewel Island.
Wheein!
The siren that caught the attention soon changed to the voice of a female teacher and started guiding the students.
[The 1st Gem Battle on Jewel Island is over. All freshn who participated in the test, please gather in front of the cruise.]
Let’s try to move to the cruise according to Shin Yoo-seong’s guidance. Lin Shao, who ca out of the cave later, gently placed a hand on Shin Yoo-seong’s shoulder and spoke to him in a friendly way.
“Yoosung! Have you ever been injured? If you get hurt, I, Lin Xiao, will gladly give my back!”
Lin Shao was at a loss to Shin Yuseong with an apologetic face, perhaps because of the mistake of not notifying him of the cave in advance.
“it’s okay. There are no injuries.”
“ha ha ha! is that right? As expected, the King’s disciple… No! After all, Yoosung should be you!”
As evidence of that, Lin Xiao laughed heartily but was breaking out in a cold sweat. If Yoosung Shin had been hurt by the golem, it would have been a natural reaction since the instructor position was dangerous.
With that, Lin Xiao let out a sigh of relief. Shin Yuseong calmly responded to Lin Xiao’s actions.
“Instructor. You look impatient. You are breathing very fast.”
“huh? ? No, just in case you, my disciple, get hurt… Stop worrying hahaha!”
“Thank you for your concern. It wasn’t that strong of an opponent.”
Shin Yoo-seong smiled aninglessly and passed himself by. For so reason, Lin Xiao couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable.

Jewel Island. front of the cruise.
The lower class students all gathered on the beach to announce the results of the Jewel Island exam. The beautiful blue sea at a glance and the cool breeze reminded of a resort area, but the students clearly showed nervous expressions.
“This is a very unusual result.”
Sweep.
Let’s say the female professor who teaches dungeon studies raises her glasses. With a nervous face, Sumire held onto Shin Yoosung’s school uniform and muttered.
“…It’s okay this ti. I also received Shin Yoo-seong’s hair… and his skull was very strong. Although hehe… I lost the skull…”
It seed that Sumire was unknowingly holding on to Shin Yoosung’s clothes. As if there was even an earthquake, Sumire’s hands trembled. A button fell off Shin Yoo-seong’s shirt.
Knock.
‘…I’ll tear all my clothes like this.’
In the end, Yooseong Shin said as he removed Sumire’s hand from her school uniform.
“It’s okay, because you did your best.”
“Really? But…”
Just as Sumire was about to bring up another negative story, the ranks of the students were displayed on a huge monitor standing on the pier.
[1st place – Shin Yooseong (Class F)]
[2nd place – Sumire (Class F)]
[3rd place -…]
Shin Yooseong, who took first place, counted the points and already knew the result to so extent. However, Sumire was actually counting from the bottom of the ranking.
120th. 68th. 13th. No matter how high you rank, you can’t see your na. Sumire let out a strange exclamation.
“iced coffee? ah!”
Sumire’s wandering gaze eventually reached the second place, the top of the monitor. Unexpected shocking results.
“…iced coffee? Aha!?”
Sumire was so happy that she grabbed Shin Yoo-seong’s hand tightly without even realizing it and jumped in place.
“Second place! I’m in second place! Shin Yoo-seong!”
Let’s Shin Yuseong smile. Sumire, who belatedly checked her hand, muttered with a blushing face.
“Oh, of course! Not my skill! All of Shin Yoo-seong’s hair…”
While Sumire was stuttering in embarrassnt, Lee Si-woo poked her head out and spoke to Shin Yoo-seong.
“Yoosung! I got 1st place! After all, you are great!”
However, Shin Yoo-seong smiled with a blank expression. Contrary to what Kwon Wang always emphasized during his training, getting first place in the academy test was too easy for Shin Yoo-seong.
In the lower class, the gap was so extre that it was difficult to even compare the students in first place, Shin Yoo-seong, and third-place students, except for their partner Sumire.
‘…I was very worried.’
When it was over, the difficulty level of the test was so low that it was trivial to Shin Yoo-seong.
‘…Compared to the training I did with Master, isn’t it too easy?’
Shin Yuseong already had top-notch skills regardless of his characteristics through training that transcended the limits.
In order to be compared to Shin Yoo-seong, he had to have at least seven number level skills.
‘The hunters Master said must be students of Number Seven, right?’
When King Kwon taught Shin Yuseong, he always made him fight against a strong man who was higher than Shin Yuseong’s level. Perhaps because of that, Yuseong Shin longed for a fight against a strong man without realizing it.
‘I want to try fighting soon.’
Lee Si-woo sneaked up to with cat steps and clung to Shin Yoo-seong, who was lost in thought, in a friendly way.
“Yooseong~ You look deep in your thoughts? Are you reliving the afterglow of winning first place?”
Although he had passed the exam, Siwoo Lee’s talkativeness was still the sa. Lee Si-woo spoke quickly without showing any sign of exhaustion.
“Hmm! As far as your grades are concerned, number 7 is confird. It will be impressive!”
“Hey there…”
Sumire, who was deprived of her turn for no reason, stood at a distance and carefully reached out her hand to Shin Yoo-seong.
“…Huh here? Shin Yoo-seong?”
Yooseong Shin looked at Sumire’s squirming hands, perhaps embarrassed, and asked with a puzzled expression.
“What’s this?”
“ah! This is Yoosung Shin’s remaining hair! Because the exam is over. I thought it was right to give it back…”
Sumire handed the hair wrapped in a tissue to Shin Yoo-seong. Shin Yoo-seong grabbed a tissue and brushed off his hair with a confused face.
“Oh, that’s… just throw it away.”
The hair that had been gathered toward the floor fell one by one. Sumire opened her eyes wide and scread.
“Ugh! No way! That precious thing!”
Surprised, Sumire sat down and groped the floor with her hands, eventually finding a hair. Then, holding her hair with both hands, she looked up at Shin Yoo-seong and asked.
“Well then, this hair… can I have it?”
Lee Si-woo, unaware of the situation, shuddered at the sight of Sumire.
“Ugh…”
On the other hand, Shin Yoo-seong, who got used to it, nodded with a face that gave up.
“Oh yeah…”
Shin Yoo-seong’s first test at Gaon Academy ended successfully.
* * *
The day the new grade rankings are released.
After breaking through the noisy crowd of students, Park Soo-hyun was able to check the bulletin board.
[9th place Park Soo-hyun (Class A)]
“What is it?”
Park Soo-hyun was not very greedy for rankings, but the fact that she was number 7 was very important.
“Am I number 9?”
Even in the last test alone, Park Soo-hyun’s score was 7th, corresponding to the number 7. But now, he is in ninth place, a long way behind the seventh number. Park Soo-hyun looked at the bulletin board with a puzzled face.
‘Who the hell is…’
[1st place Adela (class S)]
[2nd place Kim Eun-ah (class A)]
Adela and Kim Eun-ah, who were originally strong, were still holding first and second place, perhaps because of their previous grades. But the problem lies below.
[3rd place Shin Yuseong (Class F)]
[…]
[6th place Sumire (Class F)]
Shin Yooseong and Sumire, who were only in Class F, beca number 7.
“No, how could it be class F!”
Even the na written in 3rd place was sohow familiar to Park Soo-hyun.
‘…Shin Yuseong?’
Park Soo-hyun had forgotten the existence of Shin Yoo-seong, a class F mber, after the exam. I just thought to lightly relax and co when the date for Dalian cos.
‘By the way, Class F is number seven?’
Even the 3rd place, which is a lot higher than the 9th place himself. Suddenly, Kim Eun-ah’s voice played in Park Soo-hyun’s ears.
[okay? I think you might lose?]
Kim Eun-ah’s words were not lies or provocations. If it was Shin Yoo-seong’s true skill that took the number 7, he had to think about the possibility of losing in Dalian.
‘Damn it…. If I had to lose to an F-class trait…’
There was nothing more terrible than that for Park Soo-hyun, who thought of her own prestige as the best. While Park Soo-hyun, who had a headache, was biting her lip, Lee Si-woo’s nasty voice ca from the side.
“and! really! Seven number! That’s number 3! But Park Soo-hyun is at most 9th, so why did he bet on you?”
Although Lee Si-woo’s ranking was so low that Park Soo-hyun’s ranking was incomparable. He was blaming Park Soo-hyun by ntioning Shin Yoo-seong.
‘No, that baby ….’
After all, Park Soo -hyun approached Shin Yu -sung and Lee Si -woo and opened her mouth.
“Looks like you found . What did you just say?”
Seeing Park Soo-hyun’s angry face, Lee Si-woo ran away in a sweat.
“sorry!”
Park Soo-hyun glared at Lee Si-woo, who was running away, for a long ti. Soon, he turned his gaze and looked up and down Shin Yoosung.
Then, looking at the button on Shin Yoo-seong’s shirt that had been ripped off because of Sumire, he raised his glasses and clicked his tongue.
“This guy who is a disciple of Kwon King looks very bad.”
Shin Yoo-seong respected his teacher, Kwon Wang Yu Won-hak, more than anyone else. However, Shin Yoo-seong’s expression hardened at Park Soo-hyun, who ntioned the teacher’s na in a useless place.
However, Park Soo-hyun, who was angry, did not stop provoking.
“Furthermore, the subject of class F and number seven. her! Is that also the breath of the king?”
“You’d better watch your mouth.”
Let the cold voice of Shin Yoo-seong resound. Park Soo-hyun felt a chill run down his back bone without even realizing it.
‘What kind of atmosphere is this guy…’
Park Soo-hyun, who was pressed by Shin Yoo-seong’s montum, took a step back without realizing it. Shin Yoo-seong looked down at Park Soo-hyun with a cold gaze.
Let the fight between the two spread out of control. Kim Eun-ah, who happened to be passing by, intervened between the two.
“Hey, do you need to stare at in the hallway like that? I heard that sparring will happen at the sa ti~ Shouldn’t we make a decision there?”
Kim Eun-ah, who smiled, stopped the two of them with a smirk. Park Soo-hyun had no choice but to avoid the seat.
“okay. Don’t expect sparring.”
Shin Yoo-seong did not answer Park Soo-hyun’s words. The reason why I accepted the Dalian in the first place was the experience of fighting against the SP and the upper classes. It didn’t matter to Shin Yoosung anymore.
