Chapter 8 - New Test: Boiled Eggs.

"Hmm!?…" Ryusei shuddered suddenly.

He seemed to feel the perverted gaze.

He took back his hand that was pressing on Todo.

Ryusei looked around.

Then he saw Hisoka looking at him with fiery eyes, as if he had seen some rare beauty.

Ryusei's face turned pale in an instant.

Oh no, he has been targeted by Hisoka, the perverted fruit farmer!

If he had known this earlier, he wouldn't have taken action.

Unfortunately, it's too late to regret now.

Just when Ryusei was about to find a way to divert Hisoka's attention.

Hisoka suddenly withdrew his gaze from Ryusei and looked up at the sky.

Seeing this, Ryusei also looked up thoughtfully.

He saw an airship with the Hunter Association logo approaching the venue.

"Menchi, only one candidate passed. That's a bit too harsh!" An old but powerful voice came from the airship.

This immediately attracted the attention of others.

And under the gaze of everyone.

A figure jumped directly from the airship hundreds of meters above the ground.

The figure fell to the ground, creating a deep hole in the ground and splashing a lot of dust.

This way of appearance made many candidates feel shocked and puzzled.

When the dust settled, an old man with white hair and beard, wearing loose clothes, appeared in front of everyone.

The person who came was naturally Netero, the president of the Hunter Association.

"Who is this old man?" Some candidates looked at Netero and couldn't help but ask.

"He is the president of the Hunter Association and the person in charge of the Hunter Exam."

"President Netero!" Menchi took the initiative to explain to everyone.

She was also a little nervous at this time.

After all, she was indeed a little too willful in this exam.

"Well, even though he's the person in charge, he's just a behind-the-scenes person."

"When disputes arise, we are responsible for mediation." Netero said casually.

Ryusei scoffed at this.

He Wouldn't be fooled by Netero's nice words.

But in fact, Netero is a very capable person.

He used to be the world's number one Nen user.

Even though his abilities had declined as he got older, he is still one of the top five Nen users in the world.

He has countless admirers in the Hunter Association.

At least most of the twelve Earthly Branches worship Netero very much.

It was under Netero's leadership that the Hunter Association achieved its current status.

However, Netero likes to make things difficult for himself.

For this purpose, Pariston was specially appointed as the vice president.

It was just to let Pariston compete with him in a battle of wits and courage.

It can be said that he is an old naughty boy with a lot of bad taste.

Hisoka, standing by, looked at Netero very seriously.

Then he put away the murderous aura in his body.

As expected of the Hunter Association's president.

If Netero attacks him.

He probably wouldn't be able to withstand more than a few blows from Netero.

He likes fighting.

But what he likes is a battle between equals, and he enjoys the tense feeling of life and death.

And for him, there was nothing enjoyable about being crushed in battle.

"Well, Menchi." Netero looked at Menchi seriously.

"Yes!" Menchi looked at Netero solemnly.

"Your results from examining the courage to challenge the unknown are all except one person."

"Do other people have problems with their attitudes in this regard?"

"So the other talents were given substandard grades, right?" As Netero spoke, his eyes couldn't help but droop downwards.

Obviously, he was attracted by Menchi's deep cleavage.

Ryusei, who had been paying attention to Netero, noticed this.

However, Ryusei pretended not to see anything.

There was no way, he didn't want to be targeted by that old mischievous Netero.

"No, I heard the examinee look down on the gourmet hunter."

"It was accidentally over-handled."

"The standards for review have also become stricter." Menchi admitted her mistake very straightforwardly.

But there are actually two other reasons.

One was that Ryusei was the first to conduct the review, and the food he cooked was pretty good.

This raised her expectations for the remaining candidates.

The second was that Hisoka's uncontrollable malice made her feel too threatened.

This made her tense up.

That's why the review standards were finally made very strict.

However, neither of these two reasons is suitable to be stated directly.

But no one knew that Menchi had hidden other reasons.

Many people looked at Takumen with some dissatisfaction.

In their opinion, if Takumen hadn't repeatedly provoked Menchi.

Then Menchi would not have made the censorship standards so strict.

In this way, they might be able to pass the review!

"So you think the censorship is excessive, right?" Netero looked at Menchi calmly.

He wouldn't care about such things.

There are many hunters who are more willful than Menchi.

It's just the trouble it caused that needs to be solved.

"Yes, I tend to lose control when it comes to cooking."

"I am a very incompetent examiner."

"I will give up the position of examiner. Please take the exam again!" Menchi looked at Netero very seriously and said.

She failed in her duty this time.

In Menchi's opinion, she was naturally not suitable to continue serving as an examiner.

Netero was still very satisfied with Menchi's attitude.

However, he was not prepared to resign from his position as examiner of Menchi.

"It's too much trouble to suddenly prepare for another examiner." This is said to the candidates.

There must be some free hunters now.

But he was too lazy to call for help.

"Terribly sorry." Menchi looked at Netero apologetically.

After all, there are not many hunters that I am familiar with.

So I don't think there is anything wrong with Netero's statement.

"Right, let's do this!"

"You continue to serve as examiner."

"But the new exam requires you to take part in it in person." Netero came up with his own solution.

Menchi was also stunned when she heard this.

"So, what do you think?"

"If that's the case, the candidates will be more easily convinced!" Netero looked at the candidates around him.

Naturally, the candidates had no objection to Netero's proposal.

Regardless, they will still be able to continue taking the Hunter Exam.

Instead of just leaving in disgrace.

Menchi naturally had no objection to Netero's decision.

After a little thought, Menchi had an idea.

"Yes, then the new test question is: Boiled eggs"

Since she was asked to demonstrate, it would naturally have to be more intuitive.

And nearby, there happened to be some items that were very suitable to be used as test questions.

After announcing the test questions, Menchi looked at Netero.

"President, can you send us to the other side of the mountain by airship?"

Although the destination is not far from here.

But it is not so easy to pass through Milsy Wetlands.

There are a lot of ferocious wild beasts in the Milsy Wetlands.

Although it didn't mean anything to her.

But she obviously couldn't ensure that all the candidates arrived safely.
