Truly worthy of being the strongest among humans!
Even though, with age, his own condition has been continuously declining.
But the attributes he carries, each one is enough to make people drool.
Especially.
[Ultimate Martial Arts] (Black)!
This was the first time Li Ke had seen a black attribute!
Before obtaining this attribute, one could not know its effects.
But as a traveler, based on his own deductions.
This was very likely the important reason why Netero could break through human limits and continually climb to the highest heights!
If he could obtain it.
It would definitely be something akin to a divine weapon.
Even if he didn't obtain this attribute, any of the attributes on Netero would be a huge gain for Li Ke.
Of course, excluding a few at the end.
"Haha, although I'm the person in charge, I'm actually just a staff member, probably like someone responsible for resolving issues when they arise."
"That is, Menqi… you determined that their attitudes were problematic while testing whether they had the courage to challenge the unknown, so you judged them unqualified, right?"
Netero glanced at Menqi's chest.
What a lecherous old man.
"That's not the case. It's because a candidate made a dish that slandered gourmet food, even causing me to accidentally eat it, which made me angry and led to the review standards becoming even stricter than originally planned."
Menqi lowered her head, reflecting on herself.
"Then it seems you're well aware that you've been unjust in your review!" Netero asked.
"Yes, once it comes to cooking, I easily lose my rationality. This counts as a dereliction of duty on my part as an examiner. I will resign immediately, and I ask the chairman to reconsider conducting the test."
"Hmm, it's quite troublesome to find other examiners to fill in temporarily now. How about this: you continue to serve as an examiner, but for the next new test, you must also participate and demonstrate it for them!"
"What do you think about that?"
Netero smiled.
His words immediately calmed the anger of the vast majority of candidates present.
Because everyone came to participate in the professional hunter assessment to become professional hunters.
Those who made it this far had almost certainly not spent time on culinary skills, focusing all their energy on honing their combat memories.
Yet as the examiner for this round, Menqi was using cooking skills to eliminate candidates, which naturally left the candidates feeling quite displeased.
Even powerful figures like Hisoka, Nailhead Man, and Hanzo were all eliminated.
One could say that the professional hunter assessment system in this world was indeed a bit absurd.
However, Netero had already provided a way out.
"Indeed… then the new assessment topic will be… Crab Racing!"
Menqi's words left Li Ke stunned.
Wait…
The fate line has changed!
Wasn't the topic for this round supposed to be boiled eggs?
How did it turn into Crab Racing!?
What the heck.
But it didn't matter.
Now that Netero was present, if Menqi set the rules for this assessment too high, leading to no one passing, she wouldn't be able to save face.
As long as someone could pass the assessment.
Li Ke was certain he would be the first.
"Oh, Crab Racing! That's a test topic I've never heard of before. In that case, Li Ke, Menqi, let's all make up!"
Netero acted as a mediator.
"Sorry, Examiner Menqi, I originally just wanted to bring a hometown dish for you to try, but it may not suit your taste. I sincerely apologize."
Li Ke politely bowed.
"Uh…"
Menqi had thought the other party would be unwilling to make up, but unexpectedly he was so proactive, making her feel a bit embarrassed.
Wasn't it just eating a dish that slandered gourmet food?
Maybe this truly was his hometown dish; it just didn't match her taste.
Perhaps she had really missed out on his good intentions.
"Um… I was impulsive; I should be the one to apologize. Li Ke, I hope you can perform to your standards in the upcoming exam."
Menqi repeatedly apologized.
"I'm sorry too; I hope I didn't hurt you just now?"
The giant Buhlala stood up, rubbing his sore head; he had just fainted and fallen asleep.
"It's fine, did you hurt yourself?"
"Not really; Mr. Li Ke's strength is truly great, definitely the strongest person I've seen besides the chairman!"
Buhlala smiled foolishly.
"Hahaha! That's good! Let's prepare for the upcoming exam, everyone, it will be easy to handle!"
Netero laughed heartily.
...
Tiger Crab Mountain.
With the help of Chairman Netero's large airship, a group of people arrived
