Living in Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 188 Reunion with Russell

That's quite a boast.

Upon entering the building, without identifying themselves and going upstairs, they instead picked up various books and began browsing in the lobby.

The Hunter Training School was initially established privately by Russell to train more hunters for his family.

They specialize in training people on how to pass the Hunter Exam.

But Russell quickly turned it into a business and expanded it.

They collected historical examination materials for the Hunter Exam and also hired real hunters to serve as teachers at the training school.

In essence, it's about having these hunters simulate the exam, with the hunters acting as examiners and preparing test content for the candidates.

It's essentially a mock Hunter Exam, but it guarantees safety and prevents death or disability.

The GG booklet that Jin was holding also highlighted several hunters who had served as examiners for the Hunter Exam and were now examiners at the Hunter Training School.

The training consists of three parts.

The first is familiarity with the test points, which means understanding the content of past Hunter Exams and providing different ways to pass.

The second is physical training. You can't pass the Hunter Exam without sufficient strength, so they will provide physical training and instruction from renowned teachers.

It's worth mentioning that the Hunter Training School also has a "Gravity Training Room".

Over time, this technology has been promoted to some extent in Kerry City and used in various martial arts dojos.

The fact that the hunter training school possesses such resources indicates its strong background.

The last one is the mock exam. There is an opportunity to register every four months, and there are three mock exams a year.

Of course, the registration fee for studying here is not low; it costs 100 million kyats per year.

Even though the tuition is expensive, it doesn't stop many people from wanting to become hunters.

Because of Lucci's influence, there are more Nen users, and many countries no longer offer visa-free entry, while Hunter License holders can still obtain visa-free access to many countries.

This single function alone is enough to attract many people.

This also led to a suggestion that the Hunter Association made to its chairman, Netero, two years ago.

Either increase the difficulty of the exam or limit the number of qualified candidates.

Alternatively, they could simply hold one more Hunter Exam each year.

Because so far, the number of people arriving at the examination venue for the first official exam of each Hunter Exam has exceeded three thousand.

And this number is still rising.

Most of them came from Cree or the surrounding cities, or at least they were people who knew Cree and Sky Arena.

Last year, the number reached as high as 5,000, which is simply outrageous.

That's because Russell's business was being done by others as well.

The Hunter Association today can absolutely be described as a behemoth.

The world is changing every moment, and you might suddenly become outdated at any time.

The hunter's license is now like a "certificate".

Only by having a hunter's license can one have a smoother job search.

The allure of reading the entire GG book series is simply too great for many people.

It even provides ways to pay tuition, including loans, prostitution, and one even more outrageous method: exploiting the Sky Arena.

They organize a large number of people to register for matches at the Sky Arena, using the sheer number of participants to drive their advancement and generate revenue.

That's how Jin learned his lesson.

After watching the video, Jin went directly to a staff member, gave his name, and was led to the top floor.

"Long time no see, Kim. Why are you suddenly contacting me this time? Is it because you want me to keep an eye out for something, or because you want to buy something?" Russell asked Kim directly upon seeing him.

Every time Jin takes the initiative to contact him, it's basically because she needs his help with something; you could say it's a mutually beneficial arrangement.

He helps Kim, and Kim will give him some related benefits in return.

Today, the Conrad family is already a notorious criminal family in the underworld.

They were even known as the number one gang after the Ten Old Men.

Julia remains the head of the Conrad family, but her focus has shifted from Kerry City to York City.

In recent years, the Conrad family has been planning to bring the auction city of Youkexin under their control.

"I've come this time to ask you some questions about secret realms and adventurers," Jin said, getting straight to the point without any formalities.

Russell paused for a moment, then casually took a sip of tea and asked, "What do you want to know?"

"I'd like to know if you have a way to make me an adventurer?"

Jin plans to become an adventurer and then familiarize himself with the world by entering secret realms.

Russell did not answer Kim's question immediately, but instead scanned Kim with his eyes, as if searching for something.

"So you really did remove the mark! Sigh." Russell said with a hint of regret.

He was referring to the contract mark on the gold body.

At that time, Jin only had a superficial understanding of Nian and didn't know much about the contract mark, so he easily entered into the contract.

However, as Jin grew up and acquired more and more Nen knowledge, he also studied the Contract Mark.

In the end, he chose to remove the contract mark by using the method of exorcism.

This is equivalent to terminating the contract.

That's right, Lucci's contract mark can be removed through exorcism.

Of course, Lucci would know about the contract termination, and he could have stopped Lucci if he didn't want to, but he didn't stop Jin from terminating the contract.

Although few people like Jin terminate their contracts after signing them, there are still some.

It's just that the quantity is relatively small.

More often than not, they built a considerable reputation by leveraging the power of contracts.

"I'm sorry, I can't help you with that."

At this point, Russell was still a little resentful; he had no idea that the guy was hiding his true intentions so well.

I only knew that he and that guy Charlier had a good relationship.

But a little over a month ago, the Adventurers' Guild was suddenly established, and the person in charge they chose was none other than Yate Conrad.

That's how Russell noticed this little brother.

Now, as a high-ranking member of the Conrad family and one of the de facto controllers of the Kerry family, Russell knows a lot of things, at least about the Secret Realm.

He was also summoned by Lucci.

I originally thought he would be in charge of the relevant matters, but it turned out to be that guy, Ye Tai.

"It's a pity you canceled the contract, otherwise you could have given it a try."

The thought of the adoring expression on Yuta's face in front of Lord Lucci made him very unhappy.

"Is that qualification also a kind of contract?" Jin suddenly realized something.

"Well, if your contract is still in effect, you could go to the Adventurers' Guild to see my brother. He might even grant your request. Now...?"

There's no need to say more.
