Transcendent Genius Trainer Episode 91

“You have quite a few injuries. And… you’ve been pushing yourself a bit too hard. The Awakened here climb towers two or three times a day, and I follow along with them.”

The Awakened here each have their own desperate reasons.

Like Kim Seong-cheol who needs money because of his sick sibling.

Or like Lee Su-in in front of him who has essential materials she must buy.

‘This is a place where desperation runs deep.’

That’s why everyone’s physical problems are quite serious.

It’s also why Trainers avoid this place.

Coming here in person made it even more apparent.

“Still… would training be possible?”

“How much money do you have?”

“…I have about 100 million.”

“20 million won.”

Yujun called out 20 percent of her money, just like he did with Kim Seong-cheol.

“Please make the deposit.”

Ding-!

Once the deposit was made, Yujun nodded and gripped his Diamond Staff.

-You have trained Awakened Lee Su-in!

-You have trained an A-rank Awakener!

Lee Su-in’s training was completed, and those who had been waiting nearby began approaching one by one.

“Excuse me…”

“Could I get training too?”

“I was impressed watching earlier.”

These were Awakened who had seen him training Kim Seong-cheol in the plaza.

‘Really diverse indeed.’

Defense-type who mainly tanked among combat classes.

Elemental-type who used attribute attacks.

There was even a summoner-type.

Swoooosh-.

“I’m a Summoner Awakened… would it be possible to train both me and my summoned creatures?”

“Try summoning them.”

What he summoned was a winged cat.

“Meow.”

“…It’s possible.”

In Yujun’s eyes, he could see the summoned creature’s blue light and cracks.

‘I can see summoned creatures too.’

Unfortunately, it wasn’t the S-rank that Yujun wanted.

‘Still, the experience of teaching a summoner-type isn’t bad.’

-Training completed!

-Training completed!

-Points acquired.

-300P acquired.

-500P acquired.

-1,000P acquired.

…

…

Yujun was able to accumulate points in an instant.

After completing training for ten people, Yujun was able to earn 3,000P.

“Now I can unlock one skill.”

The skill to unlock was already decided.

‘The Incubation skill has been accumulating continuously.’

-Would you like to learn the [Limit Enhancement] skill?

-Required Points: 3,000P

As Yujun nodded, an intense gust of wind blew.

Shaaaaaaaaak-!

-Your limits are being enhanced!

-The limits of all stats are greatly increased!

Rumble-.

-The level of your Incubation skill increases.

The Incubation skill was a technique that converted the growth values of training subjects into Yujun’s stats.

As Yujun’s limits increased, the level of his Incubation skill also rose together.

“Now I can gain stats again with the Incubation skill.”

Since the full point state was released, Yujun could grow further.

After training Kim Seong-cheol.

Yujun had trained support-type, elemental-type, and even Summoner Awakened.

‘I shouldn’t underestimate them just because their rank is low.’

Until now, Yujun had only trained major-type Awakened.

Close-combat types, defense types, ranged types.

‘Woo Ha-na with acceleration abilities, Lee Su-yeon specialized in defense, and in cases like Seokjae or Hong Jun-yong, their awakening abilities themselves were major types.’

Because of that, teaching them had been relatively easy.

‘Even though they had much higher ranks than the Awakened I trained today.’

In contrast, the Awakened here were quite rough and their physical condition had reached its limits.

‘There are probably some who aren’t really at their stated rank.’

There would be those who had already surpassed their rank by conquering the harsh towers of Gate Front and continuously growing in the field.

‘Of course, the Awakened scan read their rank accurately.’

Rather, that’s exactly why training them was tricky.

‘I clearly gave them training appropriate for their rank, but my power was being pushed back.’

It was when he was teaching an elemental-type Awakened.

He had an awakening ability that allowed him to freely manipulate three elements: fire, wind, and water.

‘For elemental types, I’ve taught Yu Je-na and Minseok before…’

However, the elemental-type Awakened he trained this time was different.

It was like when he first taught Yu Je-na, who was an S-rank Awakened.

‘The flowing mana is different.’

While most Awakened had similar aspects, there were also unique characteristics that only that particular Awakened possessed.

‘If I approach with the existing method, not only would I fail to provide proper training, but I could get hurt myself.’

His rank was A.

By rank alone, there was no reason to be pushed back, but Yujun was indeed pushed back.

‘Thanks to that, my score was 5 points.’

Because he couldn’t provide proper training, his score was 5 points.

-Thank you so much. I won’t forget this kindness.

He left very satisfied, repeatedly bowing his head in gratitude, but Yujun was in a quite unsatisfied state.

‘This isn’t simply a lack of stats. Rather, it’s more about lack of experience.’

Lack of experience. And following that, there was a clear characteristic among the Awakened here.

‘As I felt when training Kim Seong-cheol, most of the Awakened here carry injuries.’

They were clearly different from the guild-affiliated Awakened that Yujun had taught before.

Their injuries weren’t from overwork but were ordinary injuries.

‘The Awakened here have many injuries from overwork.’

Moreover, they continued to carry injuries, causing inflammation to worsen, and their mana roads were often swollen.

‘Normal training is impossible.’

As Kim Seong-cheol and other Awakened had said, training was difficult in injured conditions.

‘No matter how much I’m capable of training optimized for injuries.’

That was when the previous Awakened had no injuries to begin with.

‘It’s not easy.’

Yujun’s training had now reached its limits.

“I need to study.”

He had experience teaching countless Awakened in the Tower of Infinity.

Based on that experience, Yujun had built his own training system in reality.

“But I can never say it’s perfect. There are many lacking parts.”

The reason Yujun kept admiring while watching Seo Yu-ri’s training was because she excellently taught Awakened using VR machines and her own unique training methods.

There were many points worth learning that he really wanted to learn, but he couldn’t.

‘I wanted to adopt those advantages, but…’

Seo Yu-ri’s training method didn’t suit him.

So he needed another training model.

He needed a training method that could complement his shortcomings.

“Then…”

Yujun recalled those words.

-A big-shot trainer came…

That big-shot trainer the Mercenary Association person had mentioned.

‘I don’t know why he’s here, but meeting him could be helpful.’

If he could observe his training, his own training skills could also improve.

Thud thud-!

Even in the midst of this, new Awakened came looking for Yujun.

“Um, would training be possible?”

This time it was a beast-type with ears on his head.

Shaaaaa-.

Seeing the red light around his head area, he seemed to be on the verge of injury, and the obvious partial transformation suggested there was a problem with his partial transformation.

‘His mana is all tangled up.’

Yujun gestured for him to come in.

‘If that big-shot trainer came here for a reason, he won’t meet me easily.’

Then he just needed to make it so they had no choice but to seek him out.

By spreading word of mouth widely to make them curious about him.

“How much money do you have?”

Yujun greeted him with a smile.

* * *

Uijeongbu Budaejjigae Street.

Though Uijeongbu had changed a lot, Budaejjigae Street still survived.

Of course, it was only called Budaejjigae Street in name, as a massive tower rose at its center.

Rough sounds could be heard in front of that tower.

“Hup!”

“Hreup!”

“Grrr!”

Rough breathing.

And the sound of hitting something.

“Your mana is floating. Floating mana is meaningless. That’s not your mana.”

A husky voice.

And a massive build.

What stood out most was his appearance.

White hair and a fierce look.

He had a lion-like appearance with quite sharp eyes.

“Teacher Baek.”

“Right, a trainer came to Uijeongbu?”

“Yes, he’s already taught several Awakened since arriving, and his reputation is quite good right now.”

“Why did he come?”

“I don’t know the details, but from what I’ve gathered, he came to gain experience.”

“To gain experience… Who is this trainer?”

“It’s that trainer who trained Hong Jun-yong that was talked about before.”

“Ah, Kang Yu-jun.”

There had been talk about Hong Jun-yong recently.

Along with the One-Shot Guild’s great growth, there was the story of Hong Jun-yong, their ace, conquering the Tower of Winds.

What kind of place was the Tower of Winds?

Wasn’t it a place that ranged-type Awakened absolutely couldn’t conquer?

Yet word had spread that Hong Jun-yong, who conquered that place, had changed through training.

“You already knew.”

“Everyone was talking about it. It seems to be true from what I can see. So that trainer has come to this Gate Front.”

His name was Baek Do-gyun.

His nickname was White Lion.

An S-rank trainer who had once tried to train Hong Jun-yong but failed.

Of course, that was a very long time ago, so if the current Baek Do-gyun were to train Hong Jun-yong again, the chances of success would be high.

Though not as much as Do Kang-myeong, Yeon Da-seul, and Han Gyu-jin, among the Awakened he had produced were quite a few of South Korea’s top-tier Awakened.

“Interesting story. He trains people instantly? They say he uses little time efficiently to produce the best results.”

Baek Do-gyun laughed as if amused.

“To call such luck training.”

Training doesn’t happen in a short period.

The process of completely changing everything an Awakened has over a long time and instilling new energy was what training truly was.

That process could be difficult and time-consuming.

But in return, it changed them for certain.

The Awakened would overcome that pain, break through their limits, and grow one step further.

“The process of grinding bone and building flesh through perseverance is what training truly is.”

Training that doesn’t invest time has no meaning whatsoever.

It’s nothing but luck.

“You’re right, Teacher Baek. His training lacks sincerity and depth.”

“But it’ll be hard to change. He must have gotten a taste for it.”

Baek Do-gyun crossed his arms and changed the subject.

“But why isn’t Han Seong-ju coming?”

“That… actually, there’s something I need to tell you. Han Seong-ju apparently went to Trainer Kang Yu-jun.”

“…”

The corner of Baek Do-gyun’s mouth slightly rose.

Han Seong-ju was an S-rank Awakened from Gate Front who had wanted to receive training from Baek Do-gyun.

“What perfect timing. Don’t you think? I came to this Gate Front to revive my rusty senses, only to have my client stolen away. And by a young junior at that.”

Who would have thought Han Seong-ju would go to Kang Yu-jun.

“They say Trainer Kang trained all 20 Awakened as soon as he arrived at Gate Front.

At those words, Baek Do-gyun’s eyebrows twitched.

Already 20 people?

The Awakened here were different from ordinary Awakened.

Since they climbed towers daily, they were full of minor injuries as well as old wounds. On top of that, their peculiar habits.

The bad habits ingrained in their bodies for survival couldn’t be fixed just because you tried to fix them.

“What do you think?”

“It seems he heard the rumors. About teaching 20 people as soon as he arrived…”

Even Han Seong-ju, an S-rank Awakened, had bad habits.

He had come to Baek Do-gyun wanting to eliminate them.

“So he placed more hope in that guy than in me.”

“I’ll go meet with Awakened Han Seong-ju right away and have a talk. This isn’t proper business ethics.”

“No, forget it. Actually, this has gotten interesting.”

Baek Do-gyun had also learned many things while training Awakened here.

So he thought it was good that he came to this place.

It felt like he was sharpening his dulled senses and gradually stepping into new territory.

“I’m curious how he taught 20 people, and why Han Seong-ju chose Kang Yu-jun.”

He was curious about his training methods.

And at the same time, he had the desire to teach his junior.

Of course, what he wanted to show under the name of teaching was the bitter taste of defeat.

Baek Do-gyun loosened up his body.

Then he immediately headed outside the building.

“Let’s go see my junior’s face.”

“I’ll guide you.”
