Chapter 194: Facing Off Against a B-Class Hero?
Chapter 194: Facing Off Against a B-Class Hero?
In no time, Yecheng was led by staff members to the A-Room where Genos was located.
As the written exam was scheduled for the afternoon, many who had already completed their physical fitness assessments rushed over upon hearing about this special "Bonus Round."
The A-Room, which was already densely packed, saw its population surge as people crowded in. Amidst this bustling crowd, Yecheng quickly spotted a shining bald head.
Although the staff hadn't informed Yecheng who had achieved perfect scores in the physical tests among the three rooms, he had a good idea of the answer.
If he counted himself, the other two were most likely Genos and the bald Saitama.
At this moment, Yecheng regretted his showboating during the physical assessment, knowing that the three perfect scores would trigger this special round.
"Night City Teacher, Saitama Teacher, they just told me that someone else also got a perfect score in the physical test in another room. We figured it had to be you two."
Genos was delighted, although this was all within his expectations. He was even happier that the strength of the two teachers was being recognized by the world, more so than if he, Genos, had stood out alone.
As for the first-place finisher in Arena B, they were just a bystander. Upon seeing Genos and Yecheng, the three big shots, they quickly nodded in gratitude.
With three perfect scores out of four rooms, it was clear that the next chapter, the four B-Class Heroes arranged by the Hero Association arrived: "Chest Black Hole," 5th in B-Class; "Jet Man," 10th in B-Class; "Dark Flame Dragon Swordsman," 64th in B-Class; and "Hell Frost," the top B-Class Hero!
When the four B-Class Heroes appeared, the only female among them caused a stir among the onlookers.
She was none other than the top B-Class Hero, Hell Frost!
The surrounding crowd exclaimed in awe, not just because Hell Frost was a stunning beauty with a voluptuous figure, but also because she was a highly popular hero.
Her exceptional looks and hot physique appealed to the aesthetic senses of many men. Moreover, despite being a B-Class Hero, her strength and popularity far exceeded the standards of her rank.
The reason she held the top B-Class position was her obsession with being the "first."
Due to her arrogant nature and strong self-esteem, she always lived under the shadow of her older sister, "Trembling Cyclone."
To nominally surpass her sister, she deliberately stayed in the B-Class, guarding the top spot. "This is the first time I've been number one in my life."
"Is this a joke? They even invited 'Hell Frost.' Who can possibly win against her? Her strength is way beyond the B-Class level."
"I wonder who will be so unlucky to spar with 'Hell Frost'?"
Snowflake initially had little interest in the Hero Association's special mission, but upon hearing that this year's Hero Exam had the highest number of participants in recent years, he decided to participate to boost the fame of his 'Snowflake Group' and create some news, so he wouldn't be overshadowed by his sister, Hellish Blizzard, every day. After some hesitation, Snowflake ultimately agreed to be the special guest for this assessment.
The four B-Class heroes' strengths were clearly uneven. As for who he could choose as his opponent, it would entirely depend on his luck.
The first extra in Arena B first thought about the odds of a four-choice-one selection. If he chose first, the chances of drawing 'Hellish Blizzard' would likely be the lowest, so he stepped forward to draw first.
And it turned out that fate was indeed kind to this guy; first, he was carried by the three big shots, and now he directly drew the lowest-ranked of the four B-Class hero guests, "Dark Flame Dragon Swordsman."
The so-called Dark Flame Dragon Swordsman was a second-year youth wearing armor and wielding a long sword.
Don't be fooled by his stylish equipment and cool hero name; in reality, he was just a mediocre swordsman.
However, even though this B-Class hero ranked 64th, he defeated the first extra in Arena B in less than five rounds during their sparring.
Then, he struck various flashy poses on stage and spoke extremely cringey lines.
The gap between amateur heroes who had fought monsters and B-Class heroes was indeed too vast.
Even if they passed the Hero Exam, they could only start as C-Class heroes, and there were a full 390 of them, more than double the number of heroes of other ranks combined.
Although there were also 101 B-Class heroes, they were in an absolute chasm compared to C-Class heroes, whose opponents were still human criminals.
But the opponents of B-Class heroes were basically Wolf-Class or Tiger-Class monsters.
"B-Class heroes are too strong. I thought I'd see the good show of amateurs defeating professional heroes today, but it seems there's no chance now."
"Yeah, although the first extra in Arena B isn't physically perfect, his opponent is also the weakest among the four B-Class heroes here."
"The remaining three B-Class heroes are all within the top ten, though."
Hearing the surrounding discussions, Genos stepped forward and said, "Night City and Saitama, why don't you let me go first?"
Regarding Genos' volunteering, neither Night City nor Saitama refused. Night City didn't care because he knew that among the B-Class heroes present, he wouldn't find anyone who could beat Genos.
As for Saitama, he had never encountered so-called professional heroes before and was worried that he might fail, so he wanted Genos to go up and test the waters.
Genos' drawn opponent was the 10th-ranked B-Class hero, "Jet Man." The opponent was a spiky-headed man with jet-style armor on his hands and feet, allowing him to accelerate by jetting high-pressure gas.
"Quite a retro equipment. If possible, please show your full strength as soon as possible; I want to end the fight quickly.
Because I also don't want to miss the chance to admire the fighting prowess of the two teachers."
Such arrogant words made those who didn't know think that Genos was the hero assessing the level, while the other was the examinee...
