Hunter: I became stronger even after I died.

Chapter 25 Fighting x Meditation

Fights are taking place simultaneously in 16 arenas.

In some arenas the fights are extremely intense, while in others the winner is decided in an instant.

Moro stared closely at the battle on one of the rings.

The two people fighting each other seemed to be martial artists who were proficient in certain styles, and their offensive and defensive ideas could be seen between their punches and kicks.

After observing for a while, Morrow realized that one of the two men was good at kicking and the other was good at punching.

But after more than ten rounds, the man who focused on leg skills gradually gained the upper hand.

"awesome."

I was interested at first, but after watching more than ten rounds, I couldn't help but feel excited.

The two men on the ring attacked with great vigor and determination, as if they were going to kill their opponents with their next move.

Moreover, the moves clearly possessed the precision to directly hit the flaws.

This is by no means something that can be achieved overnight; it must have taken hard work.

If these two people also know how to read...

What will the scene be like on the ring?

As Morrow was thinking about this possibility, he saw the situation on the ring suddenly reverse.

The man who used his legs had the upper hand, but he didn't expect the other man who used his fists to be so fierce that he had to take a whip kick in exchange for a chance to get close and punch him in the heart.

It was this punch that turned the situation around and caused the opponent to fall to the ground.

Seeing this scene, Moro's pupils shrank slightly.

He noticed that the energy above the man with the leg was dissipating.

At this moment, the referee on the ring realized the seriousness of the situation, checked the breathing of the fallen contestant, and then immediately called the emergency team on standby at the sidelines.

The other contestant who won the game just glanced at his fallen opponent and then looked away, looking indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with him.

This is the cruel side beneath the flowers and applause.

Every contestant who is determined to step onto the Sky Arena stage must be aware of and mentally prepared to die in the duel.

This is somewhat similar to the hunter test.

The Hunter Association, which promotes the Hunter test, has a relatively indifferent attitude towards the phenomenon that candidates may die during the test.

The candidates who signed up for the hunter test were also aware of the dangers of the road ahead.

The same is true for Sky Arena.

Participants must not only be mentally prepared, but also sign a life and death waiver agreement.

The fight on the ring is definitely not a show for people to watch.

If you encounter an opponent with a brutal personality, you can only blame yourself for your bad luck.

but--

It is rare for people to die in the preliminary rounds.

Because from the preliminary round to the 200th floor, it is forbidden to use weapons in the ring.

And the time limit for the preliminary round is three minutes.

If the two sides cannot decide the winner within three minutes, the referee will determine the winner based on the performance of both sides.

Therefore, in most cases, both parties will counter each other's moves and will not fight to the death.

As it is now, it is quite rare to find two contestants who specialize in killing martial arts on the same stage.

It just so happened that the two contestants were equally strong, so in order to win the duel, one of the contestants, driven by his rich combat experience, seized the fleeting opportunity decisively.

Perhaps the contestant who is good at boxing anticipated the possible killing of the opponent when he made the move, but he would never hesitate at all.

This is pure militancy.

Not to mention the fighting paradise of the Sky Arena, even if we met anywhere else at ordinary times...

Once the militant factions formally challenge each other to a fight, it is usually a matter of deciding who is superior and who is inferior, or even whether they live or die.

"I can defeat him easily."

Moro's eyes followed the winner who had already walked off the ring.

"But if he awakens his Nen ability..."

Watching the man walk into the corridor, Moro sighed.

"I can't win."

After a brief silence, Moro leaned back in his chair, frowning slightly.

Whether before or after I learned the ability of Nen, I had never had any definite contact with it.

But there is no doubt that physical skills are an extremely important component in the battle of psychic abilities.

However, a person who has no accomplishments in physical skills can, under the premise of awakening his thoughts, fight against a fighter who has practiced martial arts and physical skills for countless years without any pressure.

If we had to prioritize...

So is mindfulness more important, or are martial arts and physical skills more important?
Moro thought of the battle between Killua and Tomoki in the original work.

At that time, Killua didn't know how to use Nen, but he was able to achieve unilateral suppression with his footwork and physical skills. But if Tomoki developed the ability of Nen, it would be hard to say.

Then Moreau thought of Biscuit.

This first-rate Nen user who has been deeply engaged in the Heart Source Stream for decades does not need combat-type Nen abilities. He can possess terrifying combat power based on his skills alone.

So what is the answer...

Moreau was confused for a moment.

Then he inexplicably thought of Feitan's elusive and rapid attack ability.

Compared to the Nen ability of "The Unforgivable Man", Moro feels that Feitan's rapid attack ability is more troublesome.

If you only rely on your mind ability, can you really deal with that kind of rapid attack?
Headache.

Morrow raised his hand and rubbed his temple.

If there were no Phantom Troupe, he wouldn't have to delve into this kind of thing, let alone endure the sense of urgency that comes with time.

The future he had been looking at before -

He used his basic Nen ability as his self-protection capital, and then made a fortune through the antique business that he would never have to worry about spending.

Being rich and not dying easily, what a great future...

But the Phantom Troupe ruined it all.

"Please come to stage C, No. 2688 and No. 2792. Please come to stage C, No. 2688 and No. 2792..."

The announcement from the radio in the conference hall interrupted Moro's thoughts.

2792, that's his number.

Moro gathered his thoughts, stood up and walked towards the ring.

Soon arriving at the side of stage C, Moro saw contestant No. 2688, a woman wearing tight clothes and a long ponytail.

The girl with long ponytail also saw Moro and frowned slightly, as if she thought Moro was too young.

"Both parties, please come to the ring."

The referee raised his hand to signal both sides to come up.

Morrow and the woman with the long ponytail entered the ring.

"The first-level competition focuses more on combat performance. Please try your best within three minutes."

The referee explained the rules as usual.

"Then, let's begin!"

Then the referee quickly announced the start.

The woman with a long ponytail moved at the sound, stepped on the ground, and quickly went behind Moro with light steps.

Sorry, little brother...

The woman with the long ponytail raised her palm and chopped at the back of Moro's neck.

This scene was seen by some contestants in the audience.

They were all people who had been paying attention to Moro before. Now seeing that Moro had no reaction at all to the attack of the woman with long ponytail, they had different reactions for a moment.

Bang.

There was a dull sound from the C ring.

Then there was the sound of the ponytailed woman gasping for air, and as she was pulling her hand back, a look of pain appeared on her face.

what's the situation? !

Everyone who saw this scene was surprised, and then they saw that the boy, who looked only sixteen years old, not only had no reaction, but even showed...

A pensive look?
