Transcendent Genius Trainer Episode 113

Fundamentals are literally the basics.

The foundation of movement.

‘Until now, they’ve relied on their abilities first and used their abilities’ strengths to erase all their weaknesses.’

They covered their lack of fundamentals with powerful abilities so their shortcomings wouldn’t show.

‘Now it’s time to erase those weaknesses.’

Rather than simply maximizing strengths, eliminating weaknesses could be considered the most important element in training.

However, these weaknesses were habits, and habits were cracks built up over many years.

Crack-.

Crackcrackcrack-.

Yujun focused his eyes with intensity.

‘I’ve also built up my fundamentals for quite a long time.’

Whoosh.

How did Yujun come to have such good eyes?

It was because his fundamentals were solid.

The years of faithfully building up the basics day after day without rest were embedded in Yujun’s body.

Swoosh-.

He swung lightly and took a step.

-Synchronization is being cast!

“Huh, gasp.”

“Th-this is!?”

And the team members were flustered by that movement.

That movement just now had been transmitted from Yujun.

Thwack-!

At the same time, the crystal staff came flying.

Posture correction.

With that, they realized.

How much their movements lacked fundamentals.

Then Yujun opened his mouth.

“You all lack fundamentals.”

They all knew this too.

But they had never thought it would be a problem.

Fundamentals were literally just fundamentals.

As long as they had powerful abilities, they could compensate even if their fundamentals were somewhat lacking.

They also believed that honing their abilities was more important than further polishing their fundamentals.

“It was probably because your innate abilities were remarkable. Back then, developing abilities instead of fundamentals might have been the right answer. However.”

Once again, Yujun cast synchronization.

Shaaaaa-!

“To reach higher realms, fundamentals are more important than anything else.”

Thwack-!

Yujun swung his fist.

That appearance was similar to the punches Kim Gu-seon used to throw along with his explosion ability.

But only the appearance was similar.

Everything was clearly different.

The arm extended in a straight line.

Breathing.

Angle.

When throwing the punch, the waist and lower body, and even the mana load.

It was truly a strike faithful to the fundamentals.

Thwack-.

An ordinary strike looked extraordinarily exceptional.

-Synchronization is being cast!

In an instant, fundamentals permeated all the team members’ bodies.

-The effect of Territory Declaration activates!

“Chak-. Cheeeeek-!”

The Crayfish Kings charged simultaneously.

Following Yujun’s synchronization skill, the Strengths Team members executed movements faithful to the fundamentals.

‘Their abilities remain the same.’

Only the fundamentals had changed.

Crack-.

Craaaaaash-!

And an unexpected turn occurred.

Despite more than ten Crayfish Kings attacking simultaneously, the Strengths Team members advanced forward.

“Huh?”

“…Are we actually pushing them back?”

It wasn’t just one.

It was more than ten.

They never even thought they could gain the upper hand.

“That’s the power of fundamentals.”

At Yujun’s words, everyone’s pupils shook.

Could there really be such a change just from having fundamentals as support?

“Chyeop-. Chyeik-.”

The Crayfish Kings that had been pushed back took their stances again in confusion.

However, their shells had cracked from the previous collision.

Yujun didn’t miss that opportunity.

‘Thanks to synchronization, my movements were copied directly to the Strengths Team members.’

Even so, the power of S-rank Awakened was so strong that there were parts that even bounced off Yujun’s synchronization.

‘I’ll fix that with the staff.’

Tap-. Tap-.

Their movements began to change more and more dramatically.

Especially Kim Gu-seon’s movements were changing remarkably.

He was already exceptionally talented, but now that he had shed his ill-fitting clothes and equipped himself with fundamentals, every strike was fast and powerful.

Kwang-! Kwang-!

With Kim Gu-seon at the center, the Team Leader and team members also quickly adapted to the changes in fundamentals.

Kuwoong-!

At that moment, a differently colored Crayfish King spun in place.

“Chyeop-. Chyeik-!”

“If it were before, I would have just retreated.”

Kim Gu-seon smiled.

“But not anymore.”

The Team Leader and team members quickly matched Kim Gu-seon’s movements.

Their powerful shells become incredibly hard the moment they take an attack.

However, right after the attack ends, they become soft and take time to recover, so you just need to target that exact timing.

Kwang-!

Kim Gu-seon’s strike hit the differently colored Crayfish King directly.

“Now!”

In an instant.

They moved exactly as Yujun’s training had taught them, without a single deviation.

Kung-!

The differently colored Crayfish King collapsed just like that.

Eventually, the other Crayfish Kings also couldn’t withstand the Strengths Team members’ attacks and began falling one by one.

Shaaaak-.

After defeating all the Crayfish Kings, the Strengths Team members’ gazes turned to Yujun.

“So this is it.”

The fundamentals that Yujun had spoken of.

They had definitely mastered them through training.

-You have cleared the 4th Floor of the Insect Tower!

-Calculating clear score!

-Clear score: A

-Rewards will be granted according to your score!

Tiriririring-!

A massive treasure chest appeared in front of the stairs leading to the 5th Floor.

“A grade…”

It was unbelievable.

Who would have thought they could clear the 4th Floor with an A grade!

But there was something even more surprising than the fact they had cleared it.

It was Yujun’s movements.

The fundamentals that Yujun had shown were far too advanced for a Trainer with an A-rank license.

They far exceeded the fundamentals of the Strengths Team members present here.

“Trainer Kang… your fundamentals are… too perfect.”

Yujun smiled and explained the reason.

“Have you forgotten my nickname?”

Golden Youth.

He had earned that nickname for a very simple reason.

Because Yujun’s talent was exceptional.

Throughout Korea’s history, countless promising prospects had risen and fallen, but even among those prospects, he was unique and overwhelming.

That’s why he was given the nickname Golden Youth.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t awaken and had spent over ten years training without any abilities.

Because he failed to awaken, he focused solely on fundamentals and VR Machine training.

He dug into fundamentals over and over until they were completely ingrained in his body.

This was the result.

Perfect fundamentals.

When it came to fundamentals, he was more confident than anyone else.

“…”

Everyone looked dazed as if they had been hit in the head with a hammer.

Fundamentals are often overshadowed by the strength of awakened abilities.

Since Yujun couldn’t awaken, he had continued training only fundamentals with that insane talent of his.

So of course it would be perfect.

So of course even S-rank Awakened would be left breathless.

They had just learned those great fundamentals.

“…So that’s why it’s different.”

They had simply received correction on their fundamentals, yet they were able to hunt not only Crayfish Kings but even the green-bodied Crayfish King.

Yujun conveyed today’s goal to them.

“Let’s go to the 5th floor. Today we will stop this tower’s rampage.”

The Director had said to Yujun.

-You’ll need about 3 months. We’ll generously provide expenses and various support, so don’t worry!

At least 3 months.

In a way, it was a natural timeframe.

Even the most outstanding trainer would need time to correct the Awakened and improve their skills.

-The power of the Insect Tower is subsiding!

-The rampage is stopping!

-The 5th Floor of the Insect Tower has been conquered!

However, one day was enough for Yujun.

* * *

Kwarrrrrung-!

The Insect Tower that had been making thunderous noises became quiet.

Then the black auras that had been scattered around began to disappear.

“Good work, everyone.”

At the entrance of the Insect Tower.

Yujun came out first, followed by the Strengths Team members.

Yujun carefully examined the now-stabilized Insect Tower.

‘It’s stabilized now. Definitely.’

It was disappointing not to have fully conquered it, but this was sufficient. The request was only to stop the Insect Tower’s rampage after all.

At this level, it didn’t seem like it would rampage again for quite a long time.

“Hahahaha…”

“Haha…”

The Strengths Team members who had escaped the tower together were all grinning broadly.

“Wahahahahat-!”

Kim Gu-seon in particular laughed like crazy.

He couldn’t believe it.

This was something they had challenged countless times.

And they had failed countless times.

One trainer had changed all of that.

He knew well that trainers were important.

But to think their influence would be this great…

“…Or not?”

“Is Trainer Kang special…?”

What if an S-rank Awakened had come as reinforcement?

Forget conquering the tower, they would have had to coordinate from the beginning again, so they wouldn’t have even broken through the 1st floor of the tower until now.

Or what if an S-rank trainer other than Yujun had come?

“…I can’t imagine it.”

“I can’t think of anyone among S-rank trainers who could produce results like this.”

Maybe Han Gyu-jin from Dream, who’s been rising recently, could do it.

But even so, he wouldn’t have solved it in just one day.

“The Director’s judgment was indeed accurate.”

“He sent exactly the right number of people.”

One person was enough.

Really, one person was enough.

“Thank you, Trainer Kang!”

“Good work!”

“The hard work was done by all of you, not me. Thanks to you, I also had a good experience.”

Yujun shook his head and gave credit to the Strengths Team.

In truth, today’s achievement would have been absolutely impossible without Yujun.

Yujun, who had entered this dangerous tower with them and trained them, deserved the most credit.

It wasn’t just training in the tower, but training during combat.

Yet seeing Yujun being humble, respect for him began to grow abundantly in the hearts of the Strengths Team members.

Ziiing-.

-Training has been completed!

-Calculating training score!

A total of 8 people.

Kim Gu-seon had been trained before entering the tower, but the training inside the tower was completely different, so it was added to the training score.

-Training score 8 / 10

-Excellent practical training!

-You have gained points!

Charrrrrrreuk-!

-You have gained 24,000P.

It was the highest points he had ever gained at once.

‘Nice.’

Yujun smiled contentedly as he looked at the points.

‘I’ve trained 8 S-rank Awakened.’

3,000 points each.

Getting this many points could be considered natural in a way.

-Current Points: 24,500P

A considerable amount of points had accumulated.

‘I should be able to learn most of the Lv.3 skills.’

It was even at a level where he could aim for the next level beyond that.

‘The higher the level goes, the more points are needed though.’

There are no Lv.4 skills that can be learned with points alone.

‘I was just in need of practical training.’

He had properly gained good experience as well.

The Strengths Team leader spoke on behalf of the team toward Yujun.

“We would like to serve you as our eternal master. Trainer Kang has completely changed our careers.”

-The bond with the trained Awakened deepens!

-You have gained points!

-You have gained 2,000P!

The Strengths team members, one of the Management Bureau’s combat teams, had come to truly trust Yujun.

Of course, it was only 8 people, but if they went back and conveyed the story to injured Strengths team members or other combat teams, Yujun’s status within the Management Bureau would inevitably rise even higher.

‘Excellent.’

Thanks to that, he gained an additional 2,000 points.

Shaaaak-!

That wasn’t all.

-You have succeeded in practical training!

-You have broken through your limits.

In an instant, intense power began to be felt from Yujun’s body.

“…!”
