Two Realms: Hunters and Pirates

Good eye.

Zane, who had faced Netero five times, nodded slightly in satisfaction and even expressed his appreciation for Netero with his eyes.

Xiao Jie, who also had five chances, scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

Compared to the two, Killua was somewhat on the defensive.

He doesn't mind if Xiao Jie has more opportunities, but he would never admit that he is worse than Xiao Jie.

"I can't accept your reason. Please tell us your scoring method!" Killua stared intently at Netero.

"Hehehe...No way!"

Netero looked at Killua with a smile, then suddenly shouted at him in a mischievous way.

What are you doing?!

Killua was startled and glared angrily at the old man opposite him.

"The scoring method is top secret, I can't tell you, but I can tell you how it's scored."

The first is the review criteria, which consists of three parts: physical ability value, mental ability value, and impression value.

Physical ability is a combination of agility, flexibility, endurance, and the five senses.

Mental ability is the sum of endurance, flexibility, judgment, and creativity, among other things.

However, these values ​​are only for reference. After all, your abilities are undoubtedly impressive, given that you've made it all the way to the final test.

Therefore, the key lies in the impression value.

This refers to a quality that cannot be measured by the aforementioned numerical values.

Hmm... if I had to describe it, it would be what's called a hunter aptitude evaluation!

After teasing the Zoldyck successor, Netero began to slowly recount the origin of the rating.

Killua's expression shifted between anger and uncertainty as he recounted the story.

In his mind, he believed his talent was superior to Xiao Jie's, but now, he was being told that his talent was inferior to Xiao Jie's.

This inevitably plunged him into self-doubt.

"Stop spacing out! Didn't you hear the chairman say Hunter aptitude?!" A large hand landed on the bewildered Killua's head.

His soft white fur was ruffled, and he heard Zane's voice in his ear.

Killua paused slightly, then looked up at Zane, who had appeared beside him at some point.

"You mean I'm lagging behind because my Hunter aptitude isn't as good as Gon's?" Killua couldn't help but ask.

Zane shrugged and said, "What else? Do you really think you're inferior to Gon?"

"Of course not!" Killua replied without hesitation.

He only realized what he had said after he had just finished speaking.

Sure enough, Gon, Leorio, and Kurapika were all secretly watching him, clearly having noticed his unusual behavior long ago.

In a flash.

Killua's face turned bright red, and his toes, hidden inside his shoes, clenched tightly.

What is he talking about?

At this moment, the little white cat wished it could find a mouse to crawl into.

Seeing Killua's embarrassed expression, Zane found it amusing, but at the same time quickly glanced at someone staring at him from not far away.

Ignoring the psychologically twisted brother-obsessed killer, Zane calmly stroked Killua's white hair again before letting go.

After a brief interlude, the final test officially began.

The first match was between Zane and Xiao Jie from Group A.

The remaining candidates and examiners retreated to the wall.

"Go Zain! Go Jay!"

"Now I really don't know who to hope will win."

Regarding the battle between Zane and Gon, Leorio chose to treat both sides equally, encouraging both of them, leaving Kurapika looking helpless.

"In terms of strength, Zane definitely has the upper hand, but the rules of this test require one side to voluntarily admit defeat. It all depends on whether Zane can make Gon back down." As if to make people forget the embarrassment just now, Killua looked like he was seriously analyzing the situation.

In the field.

Zane and Xiao Jie each went to one side and then faced each other, about five or six meters apart.

"If we fight head-on, I'd definitely have a hard time beating Zane, but I might not lose in terms of stamina. So, in the upcoming battle, I must rely on my stamina to keep him occupied."

Like Killua, Gon was also analyzing his strategy for winning while his eyes were fixed on Zane.

"The first match, Zane vs. Gon, is about to begin!!!" The referee in a suit pulled the two between them and announced loudly as his raised right hand fell.

brush!

As soon as the referee finished speaking, Xiao Jie, who had been waiting in the wings, immediately took action.

With explosive power, he darted to the side like a cheetah, clearly trying to create distance between himself and Zane.

Zane stood naturally, his gaze following Gon's movements.

With a flicker of his body, in the blink of an eye, Zane had vanished from the spot.

"Zane is very fast, so I can't move in a straight line; I need to keep changing direction." The speeding Gon arrived at a wall almost instantly.

But he didn't stop. Instead, he leaped up and used his explosive power to continue speeding horizontally along the wall.

At the same time, while speeding along, Xiao Jie was also consciously changing direction, making it difficult to predict his next move.

only.....

Xiao Jie's pupils contracted.

He came to an abrupt stop as he was speeding along.

Zane suddenly reappeared in front of Gon as if he had vanished in an instant, and at the same time easily grabbed the other's neck with his right hand.

Push off with your feet.

Zane grabbed Jack by the neck and dropped him off the wall back to the ground.

As he exerted force, the suffocating feeling made Xiao Jie's face turn red, but he still forced himself to twist and raise his leg, kicking Zane's right arm.

Bang! !

Before Xiao Jie's foot could even land on Zane's right arm, Zane had already taken the first step.

With a dull thud, Zane slammed Little Jack against the wall.

The violent impact even caused cracks to appear in the walls, with spiderweb-like fissures spreading out.

With a muffled groan, the impact caused Xiao Jie to show a pained expression, and his struggles weakened instantly, as if all his strength had been drained.

"Zane is ruthless!"

"The difference in strength is too great. The best option for Xiao Jie right now is to admit defeat and try to maintain a better state to face the next opponent."

Leorio and Kurapika were worried when they saw that Gon was seriously injured.

Both of them are open to the possibility of either Zane or Jabba winning.

Given the current situation, it is clear that Zain has the absolute upper hand.

"Little Jie, I won't hold back, so you'd better admit defeat sooner rather than later!" Zane said calmly, staring at Little Jie who looked like he was about to suffocate.

As if to give Xiao Jie a chance to admit defeat, he released his right hand, letting the other fall to the ground.

"I will not admit defeat!" With a hoarse shout, Xiao Jie, who had just landed, flipped over and swept his leg towards Zane's lower body.

Bang! !

Zane remained motionless, indifferently looking down at Gon.

"Ouch!!!"

Xiao Jie's sweeping leg landed solidly on Zane's left leg, but instead of Zane falling down, Xiao Jie showed signs of pain.

Just like Killua's sweeping kick to Netero back then.

Xiao Jie felt as if he had kicked steel, and the pain made him instinctively hug his right foot and roll on the ground.
