Chapter 38
"Hieeeek!"
“Oh my.”
Da-Hee and Yoo-Jin were anxious after checking the match bracket.
“H-he is going to meet Ha Kyeong-Su as his first opponent?” Da-Hee stammered.
“Huh, Jae-Hyeok seems to be in trouble.”
Do-Jin was normally confident when Da-Hee and Yoo-Jin worried for Jae-Hyeok. But this time, he also responded with surprise and sympathy, “Wow, this type of bracket usually doesn’t happen in the freshmen’s assessment.”
Among the freshmen, Class A was unbeatable—they entered the school with higher levels, and their stats and combat experience gave them an advantage over the other classes. Therefore, the match bracket was usually predictable for a month or two after the freshmen duel assessments began, with Class A students getting matched with other Class A students. And yet, Jae-Hyeok was matched with Ha Kyeong-Su of Class A as his first opponent.
Do-Jin wondered, “Is it because he awakened a Bloodline Skill and contributed in the Leech King raid?”
“Raids and duels are very different things!” Da-Hee sighed. “This is crossing the line... ”
Whereas low-level monsters tended to move in set patterns, players could adapt to figure out the best line of attack. Furthermore, Ha Kyeong-Su was level 23 at the time of admission. By now, he would be at least level 25, with plenty of combat experience.
Yoo-Jin spoke then, “Not to mention, Ha Kyeong-Su is a spearman from the North Hamgyong Province.”
