The Emperor Engine's God-like Skill System

"What's wrong?"

Sitch, who was standing to the side, asked in confusion.

"No, it's nothing, I was just overthinking it."

Genos replied,

"Let's go."

......

Before long, King and the others had returned to the Hero Association headquarters.

Come over here!

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Just come to me!"

At this moment, Tank Top Master was like an enthusiastic fan in front of King.

"No need, just arrange hero exams for the two of them."

King said calmly.

"okay!"

Tank Top Master immediately nodded, and then prepared to take Saitama and Genos to the examination venue.

"I didn't expect the staff at the Hero Association to be so friendly!"

"Completely different from what I imagined."

Saitama, standing to the side, couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, completely unaware that the person leading him was an extraordinary S-class hero.

“Saitama-sensei, this person should be the 15th... 16th Tank Top Master in S.”

Genos, standing to the side, respectfully said that after King joined the Hero Association, all the heroes except Tornado and Blast dropped one place in the rankings, and no one complained. They had all witnessed King defeat Atomic Samurai, and he had already accomplished countless feats before joining the association, so everyone respected him greatly.

Unlike Saitama, Genos has some understanding of the Hero Association.

"I told you, I don't take on apprentices, so don't call me teacher."

Saitama couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark, while also asking,

"S-rank hero? Is that the strongest hero level? Is King also S-rank? Then wouldn't this man in the vest be just as strong as King?"

As he spoke, a glint of light flashed in Saitama's eyes.

"In response to Saitama-sensei, King-sensei is the third-ranked S-class hero, but he is actually the strongest man on Earth, the strongest hero among the S-class heroes. No other hero can compare to King."

Genos answered immediately.

"The strongest man on Earth..."

Saitama reached out and gently touched the bridge of his nose. The pain he felt when King's fist hit him earlier still seemed faint.

Although the battle was only brief, Saitama could clearly feel that he had been suppressed during the fight.

King's punches were faster and stronger than his own.

That exhilarating feeling of fighting is what Saitama longs for.

"Well deserved."

Saitama smiled and nodded.

......

Saitama and Genos quickly arrived at the testing site, where there were many other people taking the exam, all of whom wanted to become heroes.

Of all these people, less than one in ten thousand can successfully become a hero, and even if they do, they can only start from the most basic C-level hero.

"You two, go and line up over there."

A staff member walked over, saw Saitama and Genos, and said somewhat perfunctorily that they had to conduct a lot of personnel tests every day and didn't have the patience.

But after he slightly raised his head and saw that the Vest-Top Venerable was accompanying the two of them, his attitude changed somewhat:

"Venerable Tanktop? Why have you come in person?"

Although Tanktop Master ranks relatively low among S-class heroes, there are fewer than twenty S-class heroes in the entire world, making him a god-like figure to the Association.

"These are two candidates sent by Lord King; we must treat them well."

"Vest Master said with a serious expression, glancing at Saitama at the same time."

This person is capable of sparring with King; he's definitely not an ordinary person.

"well!"

The staff member, who had just been arrogant, completely changed their attitude, their face immediately plastered with a fawning smile.

"My lords, please follow me!"

Without realizing it, the staff member started changing how he addressed the two people.

No wonder even the Vest Master is so concerned about these two!

Since they were brought by King, we absolutely cannot be lax in our duties!

Chapter 81: Saitama! The New S-Class Hero!

This staff member knew perfectly well that if he offended King, his path in the Hero Association would be completely blocked.

Because of his previous feat of single-handedly defeating five Dragon-level monsters, King had already become the most prestigious hero in the Hero Association.

No one in the Hero Association would dare to offend King.

"Were those two people brought by King?!"

"seems like it."

"Did you hear? The earthquake just now was because of King's competition with them!"

"Really? Can humans create earthquakes?"

Unbeknownst to them, Saitama and Genos had become the focus of the entire examination hall, with everyone talking about them. Moreover, after learning that the two were brought by King, they dared not slack off even more.

"My lords, let's begin!"

......

A few hours later, Sitch received Saitama and Genos's report cards in his office.

The determination of hero qualification is mainly carried out through written test and physical fitness test. The written test is worth 50 points and the physical fitness test is worth 50 points, for a total of 100 points. Only those who score 70 points or above can obtain a hero license.

Genos scored almost full marks in both his physical fitness and written test, making it a near-perfect report card. If it weren't for his lack of combat achievements, he could have reached a very high level, perhaps even S-rank, and he was brimming with potential.

Saitama's physical abilities were also perfect. Not only that, he even broke almost all the historical records of physical fitness tests, and the records were much higher than the previous ones. Such physical abilities are unprecedented in the Hero Association.

However, Saitama also brings a problem.

That's because his written test score was too low, only in the twenties, barely passing.

According to the previous evaluation standards, it would definitely only be at the bottom of grade C.

However, according to King, Saitama is his sparring partner, so wouldn't giving him a C-level license be too low?

"Mr. King, these are their report cards. Would you like to take a look?"

King was taking a nap across from Sitch at that moment, thinking about which game to play that night.

"Oh, no need."

After his thoughts were pulled back to reality, King said calmly.

He had no concept of the Hero Exam, only that the Hero Association existed as a part of it.

After all, King himself never went through the hero exam; he was directly invited into the association to become an S-class hero.

"Jenos's results are very good..."

Sitch said somewhat nervously,

“However, Saitama’s written test score was very average... If we go by the previous grading standards, he would only be at the bottom of the C grade. What do you think, Mr. King?”

He assumed Saitama was King's friend, so he asked somewhat nervously.

"Do whatever you want."

King replied calmly.

Although Saitama is very strong, today is only the second time he has met King, so they can't really be considered friends yet. Genos is someone who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

So Saitama taking the Hero Association's Hero Exam is his own business, and King doesn't need to care. He also doesn't understand why people in the association keep reporting their exam results to him.

That's why King told Sitch to do whatever he wanted.

But these words took on a different meaning in Sitch's ears.

King's naturally deep and slightly hoarse voice made every word he spoke sound full of unassailable authority.

Can the "whatever" that superiors say really be casual?!

Of course not!

Although Sitch should be the one managing the heroes according to his position in the association, he considers King to be of much higher status than him.

What King said "whatever" is obviously not something to be taken lightly!

We absolutely cannot make King angry!

"I understand, I will arrange it as best I can."

Sitch nodded to King, who looked somewhat puzzled.

Understood?

What do you understand?

What do you need to arrange?

However, King didn't think much of it at the moment:

"Is there nothing else for me to do here? I'll be leaving now."
