Transcendent Genius Trainer Episode 67
The area fell into silence at Yujun’s words.
“You, you can do it…?”
It was the Guild Master of One-Shot Guild who broke that silence.
The verified A-rank Trainer Seo Yu-ri had said it couldn’t be done.
But Kang Yu-jun said he could do it?
If comparing Seo Yu-ri and Kang Yu-jun as trainers, naturally Seo Yu-ri would be considered superior.
While their current trainer ranks were the same, their experience and backgrounds were different.
Seo Yu-ri had proven her abilities by producing various results.
Moreover, she was a former Awakened.
Since she was even a former ranged-type Awakened, the weight naturally had to lean toward Seo Yu-ri.
If she said it was impossible, that it would be difficult, then her words were correct.
However, as a Guild Master, he couldn’t ignore Kang Yu-jun’s words that offered hope.
“Is, is it possible?”
At those words, his heart that had felt relieved began to waver again.
He could preserve One Shot’s identity of being composed only of ranged-type Awakened?
If he wanted it, he would do it exactly that way?
“Yes.”
Yujun declared firmly while looking at the Guild Master’s wavering eyes.
“As you requested, let’s try it that way.”
If the Guild Master had decided on that, the trainer just needed to proceed with training that matched it.
‘This won’t work and that won’t work.’
They wanted to conquer an uncleared tower with only ranged-type Awakened?
‘Then I’ll make it so they can do exactly that.’
Isn’t that what a trainer is for?
Of course, it wasn’t an easy task.
‘It’s tricky.’
However, Yujun couldn’t help but feel excited about his old memories.
‘The Tower of Infinity combinations were really diverse at one time.’
There were combinations that balanced close-range, long-range, and support, while there were also combinations that gathered only close-range Awakened to climb the tower through tanking, dealing, and even encirclement attacks.
There was also a supporter combination that climbed the tower by gathering only support-type Awakened.
Among all those combinations, the one Yujun mainly used was the all-ranged combination.
‘Of course, reality and games are different.’
But Yujun was confident.
Confident that he could maintain that combination, though it would be difficult.
Instead, the condition of the Awakened was important.
‘There are definitely necessary skills.’
If those skills couldn’t be awakened, this training could be considered a failure.
But it didn’t matter.
If they didn’t have them, he could just create them, couldn’t he?
If there are no teeth, you solve it with gums.
Everyone present, including the Guild Master, was confused by Yujun’s confidence.
Among them, the greatest confusion was being experienced by Seo Yu-ri.
No, this wasn’t confusion.
It was a kind of anger.
“…”
Seo Yu-ri glared intensely at Kang Yu-jun.
That’s just bluffing.
There’s no way such a thing is possible.
A trainer couldn’t not know this.
Making it possible for a guild composed only of Awakened from a single class to conquer upper towers?
That’s something that can’t be done.
You need to balance the team as a unit, and that’s something only an S-rank trainer or so could attempt.
No, even an S-rank trainer couldn’t possibly manage it in just one week.
Wait a moment.
At a thought that suddenly occurred to her, Seo Yu-ri retraced her thoughts again.
Was she now trapped within the boundaries of being an A-rank trainer?
There was no sign of bluffing in Yujun’s eyes.
So she wanted to ask.
Is that really possible?
How?
For a moment, she became curious about what his training would be like.
Had she really been trapped within the boundaries of being an A-rank trainer and declared impossible something that an S-rank trainer could do?
What kind of training would be needed to overcome the weaknesses of a team composed only of ranged-type Awakened?
Her mind was filled only with questions.
Just as she was about to say something.
Yujun broke the silence first.
“Then I’ll start right away. How many days do you need?”
The number of days to spend on training was important.
Contracts could be made on a daily basis or on a performance basis.
Most coordinated training on a daily basis, but the One-Shot Guild Master hadn’t set a deadline.
Just the fact that training was possible was something to be grateful for.
“Ah. The deadline is fine. As long as it’s possible!”
The date didn’t matter.
“Then I’ll set it for one week.”
“One week?”
Seo Yu-ri asked at Yujun’s words.
“Did you say one week?”
“Yes. Ah, Trainer Seo Yu-ri, you can make a separate contract for the schedule.”
Seo Yu-ri was dumbfounded.
What did he mean by one week to train 35 people!
At least a month, no, three to four months would be needed.
Some would even allow up to half a year.
Depending on the trainer, it could take a month to train just one person.
But one week?
“One week is an appropriate time for me, so that’s my proposal. You don’t need to follow along.”
Grind.
It was a statement that made her teeth clench involuntarily.
Competitive spirit boiled up in Seo Yu-ri’s heart.
She had simply wanted to train together and observe his methods.
But now she could see that Kang Yu-jun wanted to compete with her.
There was no way he could train 35 people in just one week.
How could that be possible?
It only looked like he was provoking her.
Fine, good. Even better.
“Then I’ll do the same.”
Seo Yu-ri smiled.
However, her eyes weren’t smiling at all.
* * *
“Hmm.”
Seo Yu-ri pressed her temples.
One week.
In her anger, she had matched Yujun’s conditions and set one week for herself too.
But when she calculated it, at least 3 months would be needed.
“There’s no way it can be done in one week. What’s this about one week? Even if we trained 24 hours straight, it’s physically impossible.”
She was discussing this with her two subordinates.
“You’re absolutely right.”
“It seems like we got dragged into this.”
“I heard he was quite reliable though.”
“That’s right. That’s what they told me too.”
“I also heard he was quite sincere and talented. But meeting him in person, it doesn’t seem that way. What’s the point of this kind of provocation? In the end, only the One-Shot Guild will suffer.”
The Manager and Director continued speaking.
“Trainer Kang Yu-jun should know best that it can’t be done in one week.”
“Why would he say such a thing?”
“Maybe he wanted to prove something.”
Seo Yu-ri said.
She was a trainer who came from being a long-range type Awakened.
As such, she had an advantage over Kang Yu-jun in this training matter.
“Even though it’s not supposed to be a competition, comparisons will be made.”
They were assigned the same task simultaneously.
What the Guild Master wanted was split training.
If they each trained half of the One-Shot Guild, differences would naturally show.
“He’s a rising star right now. I understand, but still.”
Kang Yu-jun had gained word-of-mouth reputation within the industry.
So it wasn’t unreasonable for his shoulders to reach sky-high.
Seo Yu-ri frowned as she spoke.
“If he’s challenging me like this, there’s no reason not to accept. One week. I’m going to give this my absolute best. Please help me out, you two. First, secure some potions for me.”
Seo Yu-ri asked the Manager and Director to secure tools for training.
Normally these wouldn’t be urgently needed, but they were necessary to push to the limit during the one-week period.
“We’ll prepare them right away!”
“We’ll be right back!”
After the Manager and Director left.
Left alone, Seo Yu-ri began quickly organizing training sessions.
“This can’t be done with one-on-one training sessions.”
She would have to teach everyone simultaneously while selecting Awakened who needed one-on-one training for separate sessions.
Otherwise, there might be people who couldn’t receive training at all.
“Hmm.”
As she organized the sessions, she recalled Yujun’s confident gaze.
As a trainer, she judged people sharply and thoroughly. That precise judgment was the most necessary element for a trainer.
That’s why she couldn’t overlook that simple gaze that others might have dismissed as insignificant.
“Something feels strange about this…”
Was he really seeing something that he himself couldn’t see?
If that were the case…
“He wouldn’t have said that thinking it was actually possible.”
If he really said that because he could train everyone in just one week…
“No, that’s overestimating him too much.”
She shook her head and cleared her thoughts.
Now was the time to focus on her own training.
* * *
“Phew…”
“Guild Master.”
The secretary called out to One-Shot Guild Master Lee An-guk.
“This is probably what Trainer Seo Yu-ri said is correct.”
“That’s right. But we were looking for a trainer who could solve that problem.”
He had expected that from Seo Yu-ri as well.
But Seo Yu-ri had made him grasp reality.
“But looking at it coldly… that would be right. As Trainer Seo Yu-ri said, in a situation where the balance is skewed toward ranged classes, we won’t be able to go to higher-level raids anymore. Not only Tower conquest, but we’ll just keep marking time.”
Even with a balanced team composition for regular raids, conquering uncleared towers is not an easy task.
In such circumstances, insisting on a party of only ranged-class Awakened?
Naturally, they could only achieve the same results as now.
No, they might even decline.
Until now, the guild members had continued to grow and grow, and using that as motivation, they had cleared places they normally wouldn’t have been able to conquer.
It worked back then, but there was a high possibility it wouldn’t work anymore.
“But I found myself wanting to believe it. There was something about Trainer Kang Yu-jun’s words…”
“There was conviction. Even though it was something that didn’t make sense.”
His secretary was feeling that too.
That’s why it was confusing.
He wanted to believe Yujun’s words, but rationally thinking, he should follow Seo Yu-ri’s advice.
Rebuilding.
It would be wise to give up on a party composed only of ranged-class Awakened.
“Still, it would be better not to have high expectations.”
The secretary advised, trying to regain his rationality as much as possible.
“Right, that’s what I should do…”
Guild Master Lee An-guk also made that judgment.
“I was really worried because we didn’t have a trainer, but now that a trainer has come, I’m still worried.”
The trainer he had been waiting for had come, but Guild Master Lee An-guk’s worries could only deepen.
“Department Head Hong will be coming soon too, and that’s also a concern.”
The most powerful force supporting the One-Shot Guild.
Even if all of One-Shot’s guild members safely completed their training, if Hong Jun-yong’s condition, who was the core of their strength, didn’t improve, One-Shot had no future.
“Even Trainer Kang Yu-jun probably can’t teach Department Head Hong well.”
Thinking about that made his head ache again.
But that didn’t mean it was time to hesitate.
“Let’s set up the framework for now. Let’s review the recruitment list for close-range Awakened and support-class Awakened.”
He should have hope but rationally prepare the next plan.
After all, it was just reviewing the recruitment list, not immediately proceeding with recruitment.
“But would it really be difficult no matter who comes?”
To the Guild Master’s question, the secretary answered after much consideration.
“If it were someone like Trainer Han Gyu-jin, it might be possible.”
* * *
One-Shot Guild Training Grounds.
Thirty-five guild members were lined up in front of Kang Yu-jun.
Their gazes still contained doubt.
“I’ll start the training.”
“Excuse me, can everyone really receive training for a whole week?”
The tallest Awakened asked.
No matter how he thought about it, having this many people receive training in just one week didn’t make sense.
‘Normally, that would be true.’
But Yujun could do it.
Crackle-.
Red lightning flashed around Yujun’s eyes.
“Lee Dong-seok.”
When Yujun called his name, he was startled.
They hadn’t even done introductions yet, so how did he know his name?
“I’ll begin the training.”
Yujun took out his Vajra staff.
Then he struck Lee Dong-seok with all his might.
