Transcendent Genius Trainer Episode 98
Yujun held out a low-grade magic stone to Fen.
Crunch-. Crunch-.
“Grung-!”
Fen happily ate the magic stone.
Watching him chew the magic stone with crunching sounds, he looked exactly like a puppy.
He never thought the day would come when this massive demon beast would look cute.
‘His eyes have become gentler.’
The more time Fen spent with Yujun, the more he began to give off the feeling of a tamed demon beast.
Controlled power.
And a sense of loyalty that could be felt.
When Yujun petted Fen’s head, Fen lowered his body to make it easier to pet him.
“Smart guy.”
“Grung-!”
Yujun then trained the other Awakened from Han Seong-ju’s Division alongside Fen.
-You have trained an Awakened!
-You have trained an Awakened!
Coming to Gate Front and teaching various Awakened, his points accumulated rapidly.
-Current Points: 7,500P
As a result, his points reached as much as 7,500.
‘With this much, I could learn 2 skills!’
Yujun grinned and checked his skill window.
‘For S-rank, rather than overall training, training that raises specific stats and strengthens specific advantages is needed.’
Then the next skill to learn was already decided.
‘Domain Declaration wouldn’t be bad either.’
There was a skill that declared a training domain to boost efficiency and strengthen the Awakened training system, but this didn’t seem necessary right now.
The currently learned Lv.3 skills were Hidden Trait Bestowal and Limit Enhancement.
-Would you like to learn Stat Growth Acceleration?
-Designate stats to maximize training efficiency.
-Required points: 5,000P.
Stat Acceleration was a skill that required quite high points even among Lv.3 skills.
‘Of course.’
Using this, he could designate specific points and maximize them.
Strength for strength, stamina for stamina, agility for agility.
And he could even designate and develop hidden stats that were concealed.
‘If repeating ten thousand times raises strength stat by 1.’
It was a skill that would allow raising stat by 1 with just three thousand repetitions.
Of course, limits existed, but the advantage was being able to quickly raise stats and complete training.
‘It is higher than the points I originally knew though.’
Having earned 7,500 points, there was no worry.
-You have learned a skill!
-You have learned Stat Growth Acceleration!
Shaaaaaaa-!
Power dwelled in Yujun’s hands.
This made it the third one.
-Stats are rising due to the Incubation skill!
Yujun’s stats, with their limits broken through, also rose steadily.
‘Although Han Seong-ju is an Auxiliary Awakened, he’s a veteran S-rank who has rolled around in this Gate Front for a long time.’
Because of that, his body itself was solid, and with Limit Enhancement breaking through, smooth training became possible.
‘Now S-rank is no problem.’
He had reached a level where he could teach anyone, whether mid-tier or high-tier.
With this, the formal training between Baek Do-gyun and Yujun came to an end.
All members of Han Seong-ju’s Division bowed deeply.
“Thank you for your hard work!”
“Thank you. My physical condition has completely changed. I never even thought my physical condition would change in such a short period.”
“I received training from various trainers before entering Gate Front, but… Trainer, you are truly different.”
The Awakened who received training from Yujun bowed to Yujun, and those who received training from Baek Do-gyun bowed to Baek Do-gyun.
“As expected of Trainer Baek.”
“The saying ‘living up to one’s reputation’ doesn’t exist for nothing!”
The Awakened who received training from Baek Do-gyun realized why Baek Do-gyun was an S-rank Trainer, and how he had built up his reputation until now.
A dramatic change that could be called a complete transformation.
And he accurately identified what problems they currently had and corrected them.
Baek Do-gyun’s [Insight] ability saw through things that even the Awakened themselves didn’t know.
Since he could know the proper state that the Awakened originally possessed, the surprise felt by the Awakened themselves was bound to be doubled.
“Take good care of your injury management. If you continue to overwork your body like before, even if it’s properly corrected through training, it will become misaligned again.”
“Yes.”
“Yes, understood!”
The nine Awakened including Han Seong-ju were in a completely different state from when they first entered this place.
“The injuries have been greatly alleviated.”
Baek Do-gyun had shown that he could train even while injured.
On top of that, he had even alleviated those injuries.
Baek Do-gyun could do that.
He had originally come here to hone his training abilities.
He had come here to break through his limits and rise even higher.
However.
“Trainer Kang… didn’t just train while alleviating injuries.”
“It seems like the injuries just disappeared.”
“He completely healed them and even did rehabilitation in this short time?”
The one carrying the most severe injuries here was Han Seong-ju.
Moreover, Han Seong-ju was S-rank.
Teaching A-rank and teaching S-rank are completely different. If they’re carrying injuries on top of that, the difficulty becomes even greater.
Shaaaak-!
Han Seong-ju kept trying to use buffs on his division.
“Try moving.”
Swoosh-!
The Awakened of Han Seong-ju’s Division were strongly affected by Han Seong-ju’s buff ability.
So the division’s power changed according to Han Seong-ju’s skill and condition.
“Team Leader Han, this is…”
“What was that just now!? That was incredibly fast!”
“The power itself is different.”
The Awakened who received Han Seong-ju’s buffs exclaimed in admiration repeatedly.
Their gazes focused on Kang Yu-jun.
Crunch-. Crunch-.
Kang Yu-jun, who had been watching Fen eating magic stones, raised his head and looked closely at the Awakened that Baek Do-gyun had taught.
The Awakened flinched momentarily at that sharp gaze.
When they were seen through by Baek Do-gyun’s [Insight], they felt as if everything was laid bare, but Yujun’s gaze was no less intense.
“…Do you possess a similar ability?”
Crackle-.
One thing was certain: the power felt from that red lightning flashing in Yujun’s eyes was extraordinary.
“You’ve worked hard.”
Yujun said while looking at those who had been trained.
‘As expected, it’s different.’
Baek Do-gyun’s training method contained contemplation born from a lifetime of accumulated experience.
‘Every single thing has a reason behind it.’
Nothing was done without purpose.
Since everything had reasons, those reasons intertwined to create good results.
Meanwhile, Baek Do-gyun and his disciples were also looking at Han Seong-ju and the four Awakened that Yujun had trained.
This training matter was a training exchange between Kang Yu-jun and Baek Do-gyun.
That meant they had to compare which side had done better training.
“…”
Naturally, Baek Do-gyun’s disciples should have been the judges.
However, everyone was silent.
Then Baek Do-gyun spoke up.
“I’m glad I came to Gate Front.”
He was smiling.
He never expected such an enjoyable thing would happen.
“You can tell just by looking, even without separate explanations, right?”
Baek Do-gyun said to his disciples.
“The result of this training exchange. This is certain.”
Baek Do-gyun’s training was excellent.
However, Kang Yu-jun’s training was overwhelming.
“I lost.”
Baek Do-gyun readily declared his defeat.
At those words, not only his disciples but even the Awakened who had received training were surprised.
The Awakened actually couldn’t really tell.
They knew Kang Yu-jun’s skills were amazing. They were feeling it directly with their bodies.
But Baek Do-gyun’s training skills were also amazing, so they couldn’t make an evaluation of who lost and who won.
But Baek Do-gyun had acknowledged it.
That it was his defeat.
“Teacher…”
The disciples tried to dissuade Baek Do-gyun.
But they also knew.
That there was a difference in the training results between Baek Do-gyun and Kang Yu-jun.
In terms of simple growth and correction training, neither could be said to have the upper hand.
Both were excellent training methods tailored to the Awakened.
But there was a decisive difference.
It was the injuries that the Awakened had.
Baek Do-gyun must have thought about that too.
Perhaps that’s why Baek Do-gyun was smiling even as he declared his defeat.
Despite losing to a rookie trainer who had just started becoming famous, he seemed satisfied.
“Trainer Kang Yu-jun.”
Baek Do-gyun approached him.
“I learned well. It was truly an enjoyable experience.”
“Not at all. I learned much more instead.”
Yujun said with a bright smile.
“It was really a great help, Trainer Baek.”
Then he completely changed his form of address.
Baek Do-gyun had been called teacher by countless people until now.
Since becoming S-rank, the very way people addressed him had simply been teacher.
That’s why he didn’t feel much emotion about titles.
But now there was definitely something that rang clearly.
Yujun’s word “teacher” made him feel quite good.
From Trainer to teacher.
It meant that a trainer he acknowledged was acknowledging him in return.
“Ahem.”
He had always been in the role of acknowledging others.
But being acknowledged in return gave him a very strange feeling.
“I didn’t know something like this would make me feel good.”
Baek Do-gyun looked at Kang Yu-jun with a bright smile.
The greatest harvest he gained here was precisely Kang Yu-jun.
To think such talent would emerge in Korea!
It was quite joyful both as a fellow trainer and as a citizen of the Republic of Korea.
That’s why he had no choice but to make a proposal.
“Yujun, would you like to join our team?”
Baek Do-gyun led a massive team.
The total number of members alone was 50, and there were over 100 people working like interns just to join Baek Do-gyun’s team.
While Do Kang-myeong and Yeon Da-seul operated Heukgang Academy and Yiun Academy to train trainers, Baek Do-gyun composed his team mainly of practical trainers.
“I’m truly grateful for your words, but I have my own team as well. It would be good to work together later!”
Yujun expressed his polite refusal, and Baek Do-gyun nodded as if he understood.
“With your level of skill, you’re worthy of leading a team yourself.”
It was disappointing, but it couldn’t be helped.
“This is my contact information. Please be sure to contact me once. Even if I can’t recruit you, I’m saying this because I want to maintain exchanges in the future.”
Baek Do-gyun held out a business card with his contact information written on it.
“Please be sure to contact me. If there’s good work, I can connect you with it, Teacher Kang. Whether you have Awakened you want to train or want to learn about specific training methods.”
At some point, Baek Do-gyun was also calling Kang Yu-jun teacher rather than trainer.
It was natural.
A trainer who had beaten him was more than qualified to be called teacher, wasn’t he?
“Yes, I understand. Thank you.”
Another prominent figure began waiting for Yujun’s contact.
* * *
A total of 33 people.
The Awakened that Yujun had trained at Gate Front began actively operating.
Exactly 10 days.
The Awakened he had trained for 10 days entered Gate Front’s numerous towers.
-You have cleared the 5th Floor!
“How… how did you clear it? Weren’t you stuck before?”
“I received training.”
-You have cleared the 10th Floor!
“No way, how are you moving at this speed?”
“I received training.”
-You have cleared the Tower of Grapes!
“No way, crazy. This is your first time clearing the Tower of Grapes, right?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“But how…”
“Well, you see.”
The Awakened that Yujun had trained began showing tremendous results in tower raids.
“I learned from Trainer Kang Yu-jun.”
And the Tower of Fairies.
Even in this tower with the highest difficulty in Gate Front, there were Awakened who had been trained by Yujun.
“Porter available. Goes to all towers.”
Kim Seong-cheol, who had perfectly mastered partial transformation and become even more powerful, was recruiting at the Tower of Fairies.
“Going to Tower of Fairies as support!”
“Going to Tower of Fairies!”
The existing Awakened were bewildered by the appearance of these people they had never seen before in the Tower of Fairies.
“What’s this?”
“They don’t look like they’re at the level to climb the Tower of Fairies.”
“They’re going to the Tower of Fairies?”
The Tower of Fairies was the tower with the highest difficulty in Gate Front.
Because of this, usually only the same familiar faces were seen.
But when new Awakened appeared, the existing Awakened sent looks of distrust.
“Please trust us just once.”
To those looking at them with suspicious eyes, the newly appeared Awakened said with smiles.
“We learned from Trainer Kang Yu-jun.”
“If there are any lacking parts, we can refund all our money and provide compensation.”
“We’ll provide double compensation!”
At those confident words, the Awakened decided to trust them for now.
And so, 2 hours later.
The eyes of the Awakened who had entered with them were wide open like crazy.
Their mouths were slightly agape, and seeing this, the Awakened who had learned from Kang Yu-jun wore very satisfied expressions.
“We told you, didn’t we? That we learned from Trainer Kang.”
“Thank you for your hard work on the tower raid!”
The existing Awakened who had experienced it firsthand were amazed.
“Wow…”
“That Trainer Kang Yu-jun, where is he now!?”
The eyes of the Awakened who had been with them lit up.
They absolutely had to meet Kang Yu-jun.
Winds of change began to blow through Gate Front, which had seen no major changes until now.
“Uh, how can I receive training? Are there conditions? If there are any injuries…”
“It’s fine.”
The Awakened who had received training smiled broadly.
“There probably isn’t an Awakened that Teacher Kang can’t teach.”
