----------------------------------------------------------

The number plate incident quickly attracted the attention of the Hunter Association.

After returning, the president of the Hunter Association, Netero, appeared and took the examinees who had passed the exam onto an airship.

He himself looked at the two identical number one number plates that the staff had presented, and he couldn't help but scratch his head.

"Hmm, this is a headache."

To be honest, even he couldn't tell the difference between the two number plates.

He couldn't tell them apart at all.

At this time, Menchi, who was standing beside him, asserted, "This must be Emiya's doing."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, that guy has a special ability. He can create food out of thin air, and he even created a villa on Eyes Island. Creating a number plate is nothing."

Menchi had been continuously observing Emiya. After all, they could be considered to have known each other in a bad way.

Another examiner, Satotz, said, "But we can't tell which one he created and which one is the number plate issued by our Hunter Association."

Because they couldn't tell the difference, they couldn't announce that Emiya had cheated.

Netero pondered for a while, clapped his hands, and said, "There's nothing we can do. We'll just announce that both of them passed the fourth test. After all, we can't tell the difference between the real and fake number plates."

Satotz said, "It looks like we're taking a loss on this one."

"There's nothing we can do. Let's just do it this way," Netero made the final decision.

Soon after, Emiya was notified that he and Kurapika had both advanced.

What can I say? This result was not unexpected for Emiya. After all, he had already considered this point when he created the number plate.

He had originally thought that the Hunter Association would only let one person pass, but he didn't expect them to ultimately adopt the method of letting two people pass.

After Emiya and Kurapika advanced, the list of those who passed the fourth test was released.

Emiya, Niikido Toshiro, Hayato Furinji, Kosaka Shigure, Issho, Robin, Hisoka, Illumi, Gon, Kurapika, Killua, Leorio, Hanzo.

In the original work, there were nine people who passed the exam.

But now, there were thirteen. As for the others, they were all eliminated.

The next step was the president's talk.

Netero had a conversation with each of the thirteen people one by one.

When it was Emiya's turn, Netero deliberately placed the two identical number plates on the table, "You really gave us a difficult problem."

"What's so difficult about this?" Emiya said nonchalantly, "If I really wanted to create a difficult problem, I would have sent a number plate to every examinee, so that thirty people would have advanced at the same time."

Netero was stunned and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Then I really have to thank you for being merciful."

If Emiya had done that, the fourth test would have become meaningless.

"Forget it, let's get to the point. Why do you want to become a Hunter?"

Emiya said calmly, "I just wanted to participate in the Hunter Exam to see what it was like. I'm not that obsessed with becoming a Hunter."

"I see, a challenge to yourself?"

Emiya pouted. In reality, this couldn't be called a challenge to himself. After all, he knew all the details of this Hunter Exam. If it was really a challenge to himself, he should have participated in the next Hunter Exam.

Netero noticed this and didn't say anything. He continued to ask, "Among your group, who do you think is the most outstanding?"

"Issho," Emiya said without hesitation. "After all, his strength is not inferior to yours."

Netero said noncommittally, "Do you know my strength?"

"I probably do," Emiya had watched the show and had some understanding of Netero's strength. "But it's a shame that you're no longer in your prime."

In the show, Netero often said that his current strength was less than half of his peak strength, and this should not be a lie.

From this, it could be seen that Netero's peak strength was indeed incredibly powerful.

Netero's eyes flickered a few times, and he said with a smile, "When a person gets old, they should accept it."

Emiya said, "I have a way to make you young again and return to your prime. I wonder if you'd be willing."

Netero smiled and didn't answer Emiya's question. Instead, he said, "One last question. Among the twelve people, who do you least want to compete with?"

Emiya saw that the other party was changing the subject and didn't mind. He said calmly, "No one. It doesn't matter who I fight. Winning or losing doesn't matter to me. It doesn't matter if I become a Hunter or not."

Netero gave a wry smile and nodded, "Okay, you can go out now."

Emiya nodded, stood up, and walked out. But when he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, turned his head, and said to Netero, "If you change your mind in the future, you can come and find me. If nothing unexpected happens, I'll be staying in Heaven's Arena for a few days after the Hunter Exam."

Netero was silent.

Emiya pushed open the door and walked out of the room.

Half an hour later, all the talks were over, and the examinees who had passed the exam were given three days of rest.

Three days later, the final test began.

Everyone was gathered at a hotel managed by the Hunter Association's examination committee. From now on, until the end of the exam, no outsiders would be allowed in or out of the hotel.

All the tables and chairs in the hotel's banquet hall were cleared, leaving only an empty room.

President Netero announced the content of the final test in this hall.

The final test would be a one-on-one competition.

The condition for passing the test was very simple: winning one match was enough to win.

And the condition for winning was simple: making the opponent surrender without killing them.

In this way, one could win the match.

Of course, the loser would not be eliminated but would advance to the next round of the competition. If someone kept losing, the person who lost in the end would become the unqualified one.

In other words, among the thirteen people, only one would be unqualified.

The remaining twelve people would all qualify and get their Hunter license.

After a simple explanation of the rules, Netero announced that the final test had begun.

To Emiya's surprise, even with his group's participation, the first match of the competition didn't change much.

It was still Hanzo vs. Gon.

And the process didn't change much either. Hanzo easily knocked Gon unconscious, but because the match required the opponent to say "I surrender" to end, Hanzo had to wake Gon up and hope he would surrender.

But there was no doubt that Gon would never surrender.

In addition, killing was not allowed in the competition. If someone killed their opponent, they would be judged as the loser. So even though Hanzo beat Gon up for several hours and even broke one of his arms, Gon stubbornly refused to surrender.

For this kind of guy who wouldn't listen to reason, Hanzo was also helpless.

If it were a ruthless or narrow-minded person, they might have risked losing and just killed the opponent cleanly.

But Hanzo wasn't that kind of person. In the end, he could only surrender.

But even so, Gon was still not satisfied and shouted, "That's not good. Let's find a way to have an honest match."

That's why Emiya didn't like this kind of protagonist like Gon.

He took advantage of the fact that killing was not allowed in the competition and refused to surrender. Of course, even if killing was allowed, he probably wouldn't have surrendered.

After all, he was a one-track-minded guy.

More importantly, it was a one-on-one battle. He clearly couldn't beat the opponent but refused to surrender, and even after the opponent surrendered, he was still not satisfied and wanted to have an honest match with the opponent.

What a joke.

You already lost, okay?

You were knocked unconscious at the beginning of the match. The difference in strength between the two sides was obvious.

It was clearly a fight, but he wanted to find another way to win to satisfy his desire to defeat the opponent.

Specifically, even though the opponent had surrendered, Gon wanted to win again and demanded that the opponent fight seriously. More importantly, he also wanted to think about a way to win comfortably.

What can I say...

It's not strange for a twelve-year-old kid to have this kind of mentality.

In the end, this guy was knocked out by Hanzo with a punch.

Emiya felt that the serious Hunter Exam had turned into a farce because of this guy.

After the first match ended, the second match began.

Because of Netero's wicked sense of humor, the second match was between Emiya and his opponent was none other than Kurapika, who had been played by Emiya.

Kurapika was full of fighting spirit when he found out that his opponent was Emiya.

Emiya asked, "Let me ask you in advance, if I win, you won't refuse to surrender like Gon, right?"

"Do you think I'm a kid?" Kurapika said unhappily. "And I don't think I'll lose."

Emiya couldn't help but laugh, "It seems you don't know the difference between us."

Kurapika's eyes turned cold. He stomped on the ground and rushed towards Emiya. His right hand clenched into a fist and he threw a punch at Emiya's head.

However, just as his fist was a few centimeters away from Emiya's head, it suddenly stopped.

He didn't stop on his own will.

It was because Emiya used telekinesis to fix Kurapika to the ground.

Kurapika maintained the posture of throwing a punch, but he couldn't move even an inch.

"Can you surrender now? You can't move, but you should be able to talk."

Kurapika was silent, as if he was trying to find a way out.

Emiya said calmly, "I can give you ten minutes. If you still don't surrender after ten minutes, I'll break your spine, and you'll have to spend the rest of your life lying in bed."

As soon as he finished speaking, Emiya noticed that two people were looking at him with murderous intent.

One was Killua, and the other was Leorio.

It was probably because his words just now angered these two people. As for Gon, he was currently in a coma, so he wouldn't release any murderous intent towards Emiya.
