The Protagonist's Career Starting From Hunter

"Oh, we meet again, Chairman!"

Walking into the reception room, Bailang immediately recognized Netero sitting on the cushioned seat across the desk and waved his hand in greeting.

"Cough... please have a seat!" Seeing Bailang's completely familiar demeanor, Netero pointed to the cushioned seat opposite the desk.

Bailang naturally didn't stand on ceremony and walked over, casually sitting down.

"I called you here for a conversation because I want to ask you a few questions as a reference for the upcoming test," Netero explained briefly while picking up a brush and a small notebook from the desk.

Bailang nodded slightly and said, "I see, then please go ahead!"

"Alright, first of all, why do you want to become a Hunter?" Netero began asking without even looking up.

Bailang smiled and said, "To summarize, there are two reasons for this question."

"First, I want to have a more detailed understanding of Nen, because I know that after obtaining a Hunter license, professionals will be arranged to teach us."

"Second, the Hunter license is very convenient. It not only eliminates many troubles but also brings a lot of convenience."

"I see."

Netero recorded with the brush in the small notebook, then looked up at Bailang and continued, "Then the next question, among the other eight candidates besides yourself, which one do you care about the most?"

"There's no need to ask, it's definitely number 112. You can tell from our relationship."

"... The last question, which candidate do you least want to fight against?"

"Still number 112!"

Bailang naturally knew the questions Netero would ask and answered them very straightforwardly.

After answering the last question, he stared at Netero and said, "Chairman, after thinking it over for the past few days, I feel that it is necessary for me to see your abilities after the Hunter test is over."

Netero, who had already put down his brush, paused for a moment and unexpectedly said, "Are you confident so soon? Although you showed remarkable strength in the previous test against that Zoldyck kid, it seems a bit too early."

Obviously, Netero was aware of Bailang's battle with Illumi on the Sea Whale Island.

It was understandable, after all, in the Hunter exam, given Bailang and Illumi's performance, it was normal for Netero to pay more attention to them.

"Mainly because I'm not sure about my current level of strength, so I want to use you, Chairman, to test my limits," Bailang said frankly.

Netero looked at Bailang thoughtfully and then showed a playful expression on his face, "Regardless, this is still a challenge to me. I won't hold back, so are you prepared for death?"

"Not really, because if I really can't handle it, I will run away first," Bailang confidently replied.

Netero: 11

This could also be considered as being frank.

"Alright, then I look forward to your performance." Although Netero was somewhat speechless, he still gave his answer.

Indeed, although he felt that the other party was still a bit immature and needed more experience, it didn't mean that he wouldn't engage in any confrontation right now.

In fact, after Bailang decided to challenge Hunter after the end of the Hunter Exam, Netero also had high expectations after the initial surprise.

The location of the final test was quite far.

They departed from Sepilu Island and arrived at the final test location three days later.

During these three days, except for Bailang being relatively busy, everyone else had plenty of rest.

It goes without saying that Bailang was busy, and it was normal for him to be a bit tired.

Fortunately, his physical condition was good, so even though he stayed up late every night, he still greeted the final test with a full spirit.

"Have you all rested well, candidates? This is the hotel operated by the Examination Committee. You can use it freely until all the matches are over..."

A large hall was specially cleaned up, with no unnecessary items. All the examiners, coordinators, and the nine candidates, including Netero, gathered here.

After Netero's opening remarks, a coordinator quickly brought out a white cloth-covered drawing board.

"Now let's talk about the final test... The content is to have the nine candidates here participate in one-on-one elimination matches!"

Netero reached out and uncovered the white cloth on the drawing board, revealing the pattern on it.

"This is..."

"Does this mean that only the person who wins in the end can obtain the Hunter qualification?"

"This is troublesome!"

Seeing the pattern on the drawing board, people like Leorio and Hisoka immediately widened their eyes and muttered to themselves.

Netero raised a finger, "No, as long as you win one match, you will pass."

"Huh?!"

Netero's words shocked the other eight people, excluding Bailang.

"Yes, the winner will directly qualify, and the loser will move up, continuously moving up until the highest point on this schedule. They will be the only one eliminated in the final test!"

Netero smiled at everyone. It was clear that he had anticipated their surprise, or rather, he was looking forward to this scene.

"It seems that the format of the final test hasn't changed. It's a pity. I was actually looking forward to it..." Bailang looked at the schedule on the drawing board and felt somewhat disappointed.

He thought there might be some new changes, considering that the final test's method should entirely depend on Netero's ideas, based on the original work.

So, under his various influences, the other side might change the format of the final test.

But now it seemed that his influence was not significant enough, at least not enough to affect Netero's ideas.

Hmm... This is something that needs to be corrected.

As a time traveler, it would be a failure not to change the plot.
