Transcendent Genius Trainer Episode 110
At that declaration, the Strengths Team was all shocked.
Did that mean what they had done so far wasn’t proper?
Even so, the results had been truly overwhelming…
“It’s coming. Steady your breathing and take 2 steps back. Mana breathing. Block it now.”
Kwang-!
They were able to block an attack that would normally have to be avoided.
The damage flowed away completely and the Titanium Mantis’s attack itself was weakened.
Thuk-. Thuk-.
“Put strength here when you swing.”
Seo-geok!
The Titanium Mantis’s body split cleanly in half.
“Huff.”
“Could training… produce such dramatic results in just an instant…?”
Training Kim Gu-seon outside had truly been just a taste, as he had said.
The real thing was here.
“This is really unbelievable…”
“Why does it work…?”
Especially those moving in sync with Yujun’s training were even more amazed.
“My head can’t understand it right away, but somehow my body is following along.”
Once the body followed along like that, it would remember to some degree, and following that memory, they could make smoother movements.
The virtuous cycle of training.
Thud-!
Yujun stomped his foot hard.
“You need to concentrate.”
The most important thing in practical training was concentration.
‘In a place like this, concentration inevitably gets scattered.’
Especially for S-rank Awakened, even more so.
‘Even in the Tower of Infinity, when doing this practical training, S-rank Awakened would often lose concentration.’
At the time, he couldn’t understand it.
But now he understood.
‘This was authentic.’
S-rank Awakened quickly grasped their body’s condition, so they would instantly realize when their body’s state had changed.
That’s when their concentration would break.
“Here it comes again.”
The Insect Tower was a tower with difficulty high enough to make the Strengths Team struggle.
‘This is my first time climbing a Tower.’
This was the first time he had officially entered a Tower in reality like this.
‘There’s a unique atmosphere that the Tower gives off.’
There was that feeling that made you catch your breath.
Between life and death.
A place where you could die if you made a mistake.
‘Living in Korea, when you’re outside, you forget about such things.’
Korea, not being an advanced Awakened nation, didn’t prioritize conquering uncleared towers and just managed them to prevent them from going berserk.
As a result, there were no challenges and that sense of being able to die at any moment was bound to feel awkward.
But the Tower was a place where death was close.
‘These are things I would never have known if I had only trained outside.’
That aura of death made the Awakened waver.
‘The flow of mana is different from usual. The breathing is different and the tension level is different.’
Yujun carefully observed the Awakened.
‘If even S-rank Awakened are like this, how much more different would lower-rank Awakened become?’
He knew nothing.
He didn’t think inside and outside would be exactly the same, but he hadn’t thought they would be this different.
‘Then the training I’ve done so far would be quite inadequate training.’
Yujun smiled bitterly as he thought of White Lion Baek Do-gyun.
‘He had viewed me quite favorably.’
Thinking about it now, that declaration of defeat really seemed like something done to instill confidence in him.
‘My training was training that didn’t know the field.’
He had to admit this.
Yujun didn’t know that Awakened in the Tower were different.
In the Tower of Infinity, the Awakened Ones’ conditions were displayed as numerical values.
Tense states or stiff body conditions were often expressed like status ailments.
But reality was different.
Not only did they feel tension much more intensely, but it wasn’t simply a tense state.
‘Beyond tension, even their breathing itself is different.’
Yujun carefully observed the Awakened Ones.
‘Even S-rank Awakened are like this.’
Awakened below that rank inevitably had drastically different appearances inside and outside the Tower.
‘Phew, I’m glad I realized what I was missing, even if it’s now.’
Yujun smiled.
He could increase the completeness of his training even more.
‘Breathing.’
He observes the Awakened Ones’ conditions.
Looking at their conditions and visualizing in his mind the best state they could achieve.
Crack-!
Once again, Yujun’s crystal staff began to dance.
“Kieek!”
In the situation where monsters were rampaging, Yujun’s staff moved even more fiercely.
“Refine your mana. Stop near the shoulder area, adjust shoulder angle. Release it right now.”
Shwaaaak-!
-Training recipe is being converted!
-Training hint is being added!
-Training hint [Understand the mana flow of the Awakened Ones!]
Understanding mana flow.
With this training hint, Yujun immediately thought of the training he needed to do for the Awakened Ones now.
‘I need to make their skills bloom.’
Shaaaak-.
He could tell from the flow of mana.
‘Their proficiency is quite high.’
There were three Awakened who had accumulated proficiency but fell just one step short of skill blooming.
Shwak-!
They were moving well according to Yujun’s instructions, but their timing was gradually getting off.
An instant.
It was truly an instant’s deviation.
Crackle-!
However, Yujun’s two eyes could see that sense of discord.
‘It’s because their skills haven’t bloomed.’
Then it’s a very simple problem.
‘I don’t need to spend big points to make skills bloom.’
These are Awakened who are already at the boundary of blooming.
So he just needs to give them a little push on the back to help them cross that boundary.
Yujun quickly organized his thoughts and swung his crystal staff once more.
Crack-!
‘I’ll correct the path of attack.’
-Skills are blooming!
-Skills have bloomed!
Shaaaaaak-!
All the Awakened Ones’ skills bloomed.
Yujun had just fully opened the potential each of them possessed.
The Strengths Team members’ mana fluctuated.
The Team Leader’s mana fluctuated the most.
‘The Team Leader probably hasn’t been on the front lines much until now.’
The Team Leader was certainly the second strongest person among them, but the number of direct combat encounters would be relatively few.
As the leader of this team, he would have had to observe the overall situation and command the team.
‘So experience had just been accumulating.’
Yujun had broken through that for him.
Yujun shouted toward the Strengths Team members.
“Your skills should have bloomed. Relax your strength and use them while maintaining wrist angle!”
At Yujun’s words, three Awakened used their skills simultaneously.
Shaaaak-!
“And Team Leader, from now on you’ll be the center.”
Craaaack-!
The Team Leader had two skills bloom simultaneously.
Swoosh-.
“Increase your speed more. Pay attention to mana circulation near your heart.”
Kuwoong-!
At Yujun’s instruction, the Team Leader’s body moved instantly as if drawn by a magnet.
“…The speed is too much to handle.”
But it was definitely faster than the monsters of the Insect Tower.
Along with that, the team members who used their awakened skills were flustered.
“!”
“!”
“Th, the skill…”
After reaching S-rank, growth had been slow.
They should have been able to learn skills by now, but often they couldn’t learn skills at all.
“It hasn’t been working all this time…”
The Strengths Team members were all S-rank, so they had been receiving training from trainers.
But recently, even with such training and practice, these things hadn’t been opening up.
‘It can’t be helped.’
This wasn’t something Yujun had accomplished easily either.
‘I could do this because I came into the Tower with them and saw their actual combat.’
That meant he had to take on that much risk.
“Your personal trainers weren’t lacking. They gave you excellent training, and those experiences accumulated to open up easily.”
Yujun added a word in case they might be disappointed in their personal trainers.
‘We all need to make a living together.’
While it was true that he was a bit ahead and better than others, he wasn’t the only trainer.
And it was also true that he could awaken them quickly because of what the existing trainers had done.
“We’re going to the 2nd Floor.”
After quickly clearing the 1st Floor, they were now planning to go up to the 2nd Floor.
Trrrrrring-.
Then a strange bell sound was heard.
“!”
As soon as he heard the sound, the Team Leader looked at Yujun in horror.
“Trainer!”
Right behind Kang Yu-jun.
A giant wasp that suddenly emerged attacked Yujun.
Its giant stinger gleamed and tried to pierce exactly through Yujun’s nape.
Sssssssssss-!
There was no way Yujun, a trainer, could dodge that.
“Damn it!”
The Team Leader desperately threw his body, but he couldn’t be faster than that wasp’s movement.
At this rate, that giant wasp’s stinger would pierce through Yujun.
Grrrrrrrring-!
Then a low growling sound was heard.
And at the same time, Fen burst out from Yujun’s arm.
Fen precisely broke the giant wasp’s stinger while glaring at the giant wasp with fierce eyes.
Then it charged at the wasp like lightning.
Kwaddeuddeuk-!
The giant wasp’s neck was torn by Fen’s teeth and fell with a thud.
“I’m fine.”
Yujun reacted calmly, and Fen stood proudly in front of him.
That movement just now was truly clean.
Even the Awakened were captivated by that movement.
The reason he was confident he could protect himself was naturally because Fen was there.
‘Fen is faster and fiercer than I thought.’
He was slightly surprised inside.
‘When training with the Awakened, it’s controlling its strength a lot.’
Yujun petted Fen’s head and handed it a magic stone.
Crunch-! Crunch-!
“Good boy, good.”
“Grrrring-.”
Then he turned his head to the Team Leader.
The Team Leader had moved at a truly incredible speed.
He had only one thought: to block the giant wasp attacking Yujun.
“Thanks to that, you’ve broken through your wall, Team Leader.”
He had tried with all his might to save Yujun.
Shaaaaaak-.
Thanks to that, he had achieved a movement he never thought possible.
“That mobility I’ve been telling you about all this time. That sense of pouring out mana overwhelmingly. You just succeeded.”
Looking at the mana flowing crazily around his feet, the Team Leader blinked his eyes.
“So, so this was it.”
“Did you… plan all of this from the very beginning?”
“Wow…”
Yujun slowly nodded his head.
“Yes.”
Of course, he hadn’t actually planned it.
But the Team Leader’s gaze toward Yujun was far from ordinary.
“You’re frightening.”
A genius of the ages.
Among all the Trainers he had encountered so far, Yujun was the first to send chills down his spine.
“We’re still only on the 1st Floor.”
Yujun said with a smile.
“Through training, we’ll climb the floors as quickly as possible.”
The next training was already decided.
‘S-rank Awakened fundamentally have no choice but to have low mana purity.’
It was the price of overworking their bodies with talent.
‘I’ll raise their mana purity.’
Once their mana roads were cleanly purified, climbing to the 2nd Floor would become much easier.
Of course, it would be more painful than any Tower conquest they’d experienced before.
“From now on, you’ll all be making this request to me.”
Yujun said, looking around at his team members.
“You’ll ask me to stop. So if you’re scared, tell me now. I’ll stop here for you.”
“…”
“…”
At Yujun’s provocation, everyone’s eyes changed.
This was a matter of pride.
“Then you all agree?”
