Unfortunate Hero's Retirement Life

Chapter 334: Revaluation Test



[The First Hero's Revaluation Test has been scheduled]

[A Total of a Thousand Heroes registered for the first Revaluation Test]

[What Heroes will face in the Revaluation Test?]

[A Week before the Revaluation Test]

[President Heero's two disciples registered for the Revaluation Test]

[Fifteen Emperor Class Heroes will participate in the first Revaluation Test!]

Heero was scrolling down the Star Forum. The forum was filled with these kinds of topics after he announced the schedule of the revaluation test last night.

Of course, amidst the hot topic regarding the Revaluation Test, there was also controversy.

[The first Revaluation Test will start in a week! Where is Ryan White?]

[Ryan White is not listed in the first Revaluation Test. Is he still alive?]

[Ryan White's whereabouts are still unknown!]

These kinds of topics were satirizing Heero, of course. He said Ryan White was still alive but the person never appeared again in public.

The people who posted such kinds of posts on the forum should be the Rankers or the people of the big families. Until now, Heero had not fulfilled his promise to share his secret technique with the Hero League. They kept pressuring him but they could not refute Heero's reasoning.

He told the executives that he would only share the secret technique with the heroes. Now there were no official heroes under them. If they want the secret technique, the heroes must pass the Revaluation Test first.

Maybe these people were pissed off by him hence they tried to throw mud onto him. Anyway, Heero was not bothered by this issue.

Another big news came out of the Musashi Clan and the Hanzo Clan.

Emperor Class Hero - Rank 4, Musashi Kenzan announced his retirement right after Heero released the schedule for the Revaluation Test.

Not only Musashi Kenzan, the current head of the Hanzo Clan, Hanzo Yori, Emperor Class Hero - Rank 6 also announced his retirement half an hour after Musashi Kenzan did his announcement.

The Star Forum was hot with these topics and many were speculating about the Hero League's future with the new reformation and the two big figures that retired.

While reading the forum through his smartwatch, someone knocked on the door and entered the office.

Heero looked up, Kang Seo-Yeon entered the office with a concerned look plastered on her face.

"What's wrong?" Heero immediately asked his wife.

"Are you with this?" Kang Seo-Yeon showed her smartwatch. She also had Star Forum opened on her smartwatch. She was pointing to Ryan White's issues.

"What's wrong with that?"

"Shouldn't we clear Ryan White's issue before it gets out of hand? He is okay, right?" She was concerned with her husband's image to the public eyes.

"He is okay," Heero nodded his head, "Mnn, he is fine, and he's currently training under Old Man Niadin. We better not disturb him,"

Kang Seo-Yeon had her eyes widened and asked in a whisper, "Old Man Niadin? The black dragon?"

"Mnn, even if we ask him to come out, I bet he won't show himself either. Let's ignore this thing, it must be the Ranker Alliance's doing," Heero brushed this matter casually.

"If you say so…" Kang Seo-Yeon could not help but agree with this.

That was right, Old Man Niadin managed to control Ryan White despite losing a big chunk of his memories. Of course, the drive that kept his sanity was his revenge on the people who killed his family.

After he realized all of this, he completely believed in Heero's story. Since that, he was fully focused on his training under Niadin's teaching. He dedicated his life to avenge his family, that was the drive that kept his sanity.

"What about the Hero League of Moon City and Sun City's branch? They pressured us to share all information about the specter including the secret technique or…" Kang Seo-Yeon paused as she hesitated to finish his words.

Heero looked straight to Kang Seo-Yeon's eyes, "Or?"

"Or they will turn against us!"

"Nah, ignore them," Heero waved his hand at the threat.

He did not know who divulged the information about the secret technique, but the other two branches caught this news and demanded to share the technique with them.

They sent an official letter for that but Heero refused to share his technique with them unless they followed his reformation as well.

That was the condition he set for them but they refused but they still demanded to share the technique. Since they refused his terms, Heero also decided to ignore them.

And now they started to threaten him. An additional reason to ignore them.

First Dungeon

Ryan White was sitting under a big tree, watching Sun Zhou Yi doing a push-up with his Master on top of him with a boulder in his hand.

"Hah… Hah… Hah…"

He breathed heavily as sweats trickled down from his forehead. He was on a break from his training and he was amazed by Sun Zhou Yi. He was resting in his break time but Sun Zhou Yi was doing something that amazed him.

In the break time, Sun Zhou Yi was doing a push-up instead of taking an actual rest. He had been watching this for straight a week.

After a moment, Ryan White managed to stabilize his breath. He stood up and approached the duo.

Old Man Niadin also stepped down from Sun Zhou Yi's body. It was an indication the break time was over.

"Alright, it's sparing time!" Old Man Niadin looked toward Sun Zhou Yi and instructed, "You are not allowed to use your Ki Sword, fight close combat against him!"

The old man pointed his finger at Ryan. Then the Master and the disciple's eyes met.

"As for you, try to hold for ten minutes,"

This was the seventh day the two had spar and the result of the spar in the last week was a disaster to his disciple. The best his disciple could do was stalling Sun Zhou Yi for three minutes hence he asked Sun Zhou Yi not to use his Ki Sword against Ryan.

"Alright!" Sun Zhou Yi nodded before he turned toward Ryan White.

Actually, the purpose of this spar was to help Ryan White with his training. There was no benefit for him to do this as Ryan White was too weak to be his sparring partner.

However, he still decided to do the sparing. This was his way of helping Ryan White.

After hearing what happened to Ryan White. Sun Zhou Yi sympathized with him and decided to forget his past grudge against Ryan.

"Have you registered for the Revaluation Test?" Sun Zhou Yi asked before the spar started.

"I have no time for such bullshit," Ryan White shook his head. Becoming the strongest hero was no longer his goal. His goal was to avenge his family.

"Nah, you have to if you want to find your enemy. Have you heard of SES? A specialized squad to hunt the specter, if you want to find your enemy, joining SES is the best choice,"

Sun Zhou Yi patiently explained why Ryan White had to participate in the Revaluation Test.

"SES is temporarily inactive but it will start operating again after the first Revaluation Test. My Master will choose the squad members after the Revaluation Test and you have to be a Hero if you want to join the squad. All information regarding the specter is held by SES,"

"Alright, enough with the chit chat," Old Man Niadin cut off the conversation, "I will talk to Heero to put you into the Revaluation Test or whatever it is. Don't worry about it, just focus on your training!"

*** ***

While Sun Zhou Yi was doing his intensive training, Musashi Hirata also did the same. He was not slacking and had been doing his best to master the Musashi Clan's Sword Art left by his ancestor.

In the middle of a large field, an old man was standing still as a sword placed next to his next.

"Hah…" Musashi Ueno let out a sigh as he raised his hands, "I admit my defeat,"

Musashi Hirata took a deep breath and lowered his sword. This was his first win against his grandpa though it was not an easy win for him.

He sheathed back and looked toward the distance, in the direction of a big tree. Below the big three, four people were sitting down.

These four were Musashi Naizen, Musashi Kenzan, Musashi Osada, and Musashi Noboru. All Musashi Clan's top figures gathered in this place. The reason was helping their juniors, Musashi Hirata and Musashi Naizen in their training.

"It seems Hirata gets his first win, Father," Musashi Naizen commented.

Musashi Kenzan merely nodded his head as a complex expression plastered on his face.

"Alright, it's my turn now!" Musashi Osada stood up as he picked his sword as well.

"Eventually the young will surpass the old,"

Musashi Osada walked forward as he looked at his surroundings. On the ground, he could see many cuts of various sizes and depths made by swords. All of this caused by Musashi Hirata and Musashi Ueno.

At a certain jungle, Kang Dong-Woo and Xu Lingxun were sneaking around the bush. They were spying on a mutated beast.

The mutated beast was three meters tall and five meters long. It had a mane like a lion and horn-like deer. It also had two big fangs like a saber tooth.

Red-colored manes covered its neck, brown fur covered its body, and its tail was made of black steel. Fiendish Mane, that was how people called this creature. A creature that was known for its fast movement and its big brute force. Its steel tail was also harder than enhanced steel and people used the tail for material for blacksmithing.

This was a rare mutated beast in the safe zone. People rarely encountered Fiendish Mane around here but Kang Dong-Woo and Xu Lingxun met one.

The two exchanged a glance. Xu Lingxun could see a desire to fight the mutated in Kang Dong-Woo's eyes. However, he was hesitating as Fiendish Mane was a Gold Class mutated beast and it was categorized as the top ten most dangerous in its class.

"Let's do it!" Kang Dong-Woo tried to ask Xu Lingxun to join against Fiendish Mane.

If he was alone, Kang Dong-Woo would leave without hesitation. But he was with Xu Lingxun and he was confident if it was both of them, they could kill Fiendish Mane.

"Are you sure? We have an assessment in a week, if we are injured we may fail later…" Xu Lingxun was hesitating.

Yes, in a week, both would have an assessment. They registered for a Hero assessment and they might join the Revaluation Test with the other heroes. He did not want to ruin this because of recklessness.

"If we can kill this, we may jump class to Gold Class Hero. Let's try it out and retreat if it's not possible. It should be easy for us to escape from this big guy, right?" Kang Dong-Woo did not want to give up.

In the end, Xu Lingxun agreed to hunt Fiendish Mane. He nodded after some hesitation.

"Good! I will attack it with my flame to attract his attention," Kang Dong-Woo raised his hand which was covered in flame, "You sneak from behind. If we can take it with one shot, jump through the rank is not impossible,"

Kang Dong-Woo let out an excited grin.

"Mnnn, let's do that!"

Everyone was busy with their preparation, preparation for the test. Yes, in the last week before the test, everyone increased their training load. They did this in order to reach the class they wanted.

Just like that, a week passed and the Revaluation Test would start today.
