Transcendent Genius Trainer Episode 40

 

Scratch-. Scratch-.

 

“Everyone focus on your exam. If you look around unnecessarily, it will be considered cheating and you’ll be disqualified!”

 

When the examinees kept sneaking glances at one person, the proctor issued a warning.

 

The person receiving all this attention was none other than Yujun.

 

While everyone else was struggling and lost in thought, he alone was continuously solving problems without pause.

 

“What the…?”

 

“How is he solving them…?”

 

Everyone was flustered. But because of the examiner’s stern announcement, they couldn’t directly observe him.

 

And it wasn’t the time to just watch anyway.

 

They were also examinees who had come to take the test.

 

“…”

 

As the examinees began focusing on their own tests again, the examiner observed Yujun closely.

 

Kang Yu-jun was receiving considerable attention even among the examiners.

 

They had heard the news that the promised golden Youth had switched to being a Trainer.

 

There were even rumors that he had achieved significant results at Sky Guild.

 

The scouts were also saying good things about Yujun, who had successfully trained Woo Ha-na.

 

However, there were also opinions that Yujun thought too lightly of training.

 

Several of the examiners agreed with that opinion.

 

But seeing him directly, something was different.

 

It was quite rare to see someone write answers so smoothly on the theory exam.

 

“…”

 

The examiner’s thoughts began to turn somewhat positive.

 

The early problems were easy, so it was right to go that fast.

 

“Ugh.”

 

“Hmm…”

 

Separate from Yujun, the examinees from Awakened backgrounds were frowning deeply.

 

Veteran trainers who had continued training without licenses found these theory problems quite troublesome.

 

“I did study for this…”

 

“But it’s too difficult…?”

 

They had studied too, but the difficulty seemed higher than expected, showing clear signs of distress.

 

“Huh.”

 

The same was true for Kim Gyu-cheol, a young trainer examinee.

 

Despite studying hard, mana dynamics and biological response studies weren’t easy subjects.

 

So he too was surprised by Yujun’s performance.

 

Since he was diagonally behind Yujun, he had a relatively good view of him.

 

‘How on earth…’

 

And his surprise didn’t end there.

 

Only about 10 minutes had passed, yet Yujun had moved on to the next subject’s test paper.

 

“Wh-what…?”

 

Flustered, Kim Gyu-cheol looked at his own test paper.

 

These weren’t easy problems at all.

 

There were quite a few essay questions, which required complete understanding to solve.

 

“What is he, that person…?”

 

Since they were the same age, he naturally thought Yujun had come to take the exam for experience.

 

But that wasn’t the case at all.

 

“…I guess he wasn’t just saying that.”

 

When Yujun had asked about his arm earlier, he had panicked and avoided the question, but actually it was just as Yujun had said.

 

There was indeed a problem with his arm.

 

But until now, no one had known until he mentioned it.

 

“With that level of skill… he must have noticed.”

 

Kim Gyu-cheol watched him for a long time.

 

Seeing that skill level, he couldn’t believe Yujun was really his age.

 

“No way.”

 

Suddenly his eyes widened.

 

There was one thing he could guess.

 

“…Does he just look young?”

 

Otherwise, that level of skill didn’t make sense.

 

* * *

 

Scratch-. Scratch- Scratch-.

 

Yujun had so much time left that he even finished reviewing once.

 

Written exam ended.

 

“The exam is over. Please submit your papers. You cannot write anymore.”

 

“Sigh…”

 

“Why was this exam so difficult?”

 

“What’s this, examiner? There wasn’t a single thing from the past exam questions?”

 

The examiner frowned at those words.

 

He too knew well that this exam was difficult.

 

“It’s difficult. But you should have studied harder.”

 

He had no choice but to say that.

 

“Sigh, the government ordered it that way, so what can we do.”

 

Government guidelines had come down, forcing them to raise the difficulty of the written exam.

 

“They keep having accidents and problems because it goes against theory.”

 

Trainers who didn’t properly study theory kept causing accidents, leading to government guidelines being issued.

 

The order was not to give out licenses easily.

 

‘But honestly, even I’m not confident I’d get a good score if this came out.’

 

Probably quite a few trainers who already have licenses would fail if they had to take this exam.

 

With such thoughts, the examiner glanced at Kang Yu-jun’s answer sheet.

 

“Wow.”

 

And his mouth fell open.

 

“…He wrote all the answers?”

 

Kang Yu-jun was the only one who had written answers to all the essay questions.

 

Moreover, the answers to the essay questions were extremely long.

 

“He might get a perfect score on the written exam.”

 

But the practical exam was just as important as the written exam.

 

“He’ll pass the license exam. As long as he doesn’t make mistakes in the practical.”

 

However, there were several notoriously difficult examiners for the practical exam.

 

“It won’t be easy.”

 

The difficulty of the written exam had increased greatly, but what really went up was the practical exam difficulty.

 

“That’s unfortunate.”

 

Kang Yu-jun, who had relatively little practical experience, was likely to fail.

 

“He did train Woo Ha-na, but that’s probably somewhat exaggerated.”

 

Besides, Woo Ha-na was Youth, not first team.

 

“He’ll have to experience the real thing to know.”

 

The examiners were waiting with determination in the practical exam. Training that wouldn’t be easy.

 

* * *

 

After the written exam ended.

 

Kim Gyu-cheol approached Yujun who was waiting in the waiting room.

 

“You were the only one writing all the answers! You must have studied incredibly hard!”

 

“I studied incredibly hard.”

 

Yujun smiled as he answered, then shifted his gaze to Kim Gyu-cheol’s arm.

 

‘His condition seems to be getting worse and worse… Should I take a look?’

 

There was one hour left until the practical exam.

 

-Using Awakened Scan!

 

Yujun immediately scanned him.

 

-[Kim Gyu-cheol] Overall Grade D

 

-Physical: [S]

 

-Mental: [A]

 

-Stats: [Strength 5/20] [Stamina 5/20] [Agility 4/20]

 

-Awakened Ability: Diamond Hand

 

-Potential: Intermediate

 

-Special Notes: Ability sealed state, mana circuit abnormality, mana disconnection

 

Yujun couldn’t help but widen his eyes at the unexpected result.

 

‘Overall grade D but physical ability is S-rank?’

 

However, looking at him, he couldn’t feel S-rank at all.

 

Yujun focused on his ability and special notes.

 

‘Diamond Hand.’

 

Yujun’s eyes widened instantly.

 

Diamond Hand.

 

Just looking at it, this was clearly a crafting-type ability.

 

‘He’s crafting-type.’

 

S-rank physical with crafting-type ability.

 

But his ability was in a sealed state.

 

‘But that’s sealed?’

 

The mana circuit abnormalities and mana disconnection attached behind were the reason.

 

“Gyu-cheol, you don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to, but are you perhaps a blacksmith?”

 

“!”

 

Kim Gyu-cheol’s expression instantly hardened.

 

“How did you know that….”

 

He hadn’t said anything.

 

But how did he know?

 

Not only the condition of his arms, but even his profession was correct.

 

“Do you need this level of insight to become a Trainer?”

 

Did you have to be able to tell everything about someone just by looking at them?

 

Thinking about it made him let out a hollow laugh.

 

“I guess I could never become a Trainer from the start.”

 

“You don’t want to become a Trainer anyway, do you?”

 

At Yujun’s words, he nodded with a gloomy expression.

 

“I injured my arms. I can’t use my right arm at all, and my other arm is gradually stiffening too.”

 

As expected, he was a blacksmith.

 

However, his physical condition was so terrible that he couldn’t be called a blacksmith.

 

“Since I was kicked out of the family, I’m not really a blacksmith anymore.”

 

Geumgang technique.

 

And hearing that he was kicked out of his family, Yujun immediately tested him once.

 

“Are you perhaps a member of the Geumgang Kim Family?”

 

“A member? I’m not part of the Geumgang Kim Family anymore. I was kicked out because my hands became like this.”

 

‘As I thought.’

 

The Geumgang Kim Family.

 

It was a blacksmith family famous for crafting.

 

As Awakened and Towers spread throughout the world, powerful Awakened began appearing one by one.

 

Among countless combat-type Awakened, there was one crafting-type Awakened who boasted an unrivaled position, and that Awakened was Kim Gwang-ryeol, the first Awakened of the Geumgang Kim Family.

 

The artifacts he created helped countless Awakened, and furthermore became the catalyst for creating S-rank Awakened.

 

Thanks to the equipment made by the Geumgang Kim Family, several unconquered Towers were cleared, and the Geumgang Kim Family rose to become a prestigious family in South Korea.

 

“I’ve talked too much. Anyway… thanks to this, I realized that being a Trainer isn’t my path either.”

 

“Kim Gyu-cheol.”

 

Yujun looked at Kim Gyu-cheol and gulped.

 

‘I was wondering where I’d have to look for one.’

 

He had been worrying a lot about where to find a blacksmith who would become the most core personnel in his division.

 

But now one was right in front of him.

 

‘No one but me could fix those arms.’

 

Otherwise, Kim Gyu-cheol wouldn’t be in this state.

 

“If I fix those arms for you, could you do me one favor?”

 

Ding-!

 

-A training hint is granted!

 

-[Right arm function recovery through mana circuit reconstruction]

 

Yujun could see the answer key.
