Choi Yoon and Hyeonu talked outside the hospital room .
“You know it’s a streaming day today?”
“Yes, but why today . . . ”
Hyeonu already heard from Nike that Choi Yoon knew he was Alley Leader .
“I just came by . I had to come to the hospital anyway . Jisu . . . She is a cute child . She is very kind . It is a pity that such a child is sick . ”
Choi Yoon didn’t know why Jisu’s name emerged from Hyeonu’s mouth, but he kept listening .
“The date of the surgery has been set . It’s next Friday . Next Monday will be your last stream . By Monday night or Tuesday lunchtime at the latest, both you and your daughter will be on a flight to the United States . ”
The moment Hyeonu finished speaking, Choi Yoon fell to his knees . He had lost all strength in his legs . Then he bowed to Hyeonu and said ‘thank you’ repeatedly . Hyeonu grabbed Choi Yoon’s shoulders and shook him . “You don’t have to thank me because I’m not the one paying for Jisu’s treatment . It is an anonymous sponsor . You’ll probably find out who it is by the time you leave . ”
Hyeonu hid that he had paid for Choi Jisu’s surgery . The reason for it was simple .
‘I’m embarrassed . ’
He was embarrassed to say that he had read Choi Yoon’s story and paid for the surgery . It felt like he was showing off for some reason . Thus, he hid it . He would reveal it when Choi Yoon wasn’t in South Korea and couldn’t find Hyeonu .
“Then I’ll see you in Arena . Do you know the arena room information? It is still the same . Don’t forget it and come in . You are going to learn something new today,” Hyeonu told Choi Yoon this and left quickly .
Even now, his face felt hot .
“I understand,” Choi Yoon replied quietly toward Hyeonu’s back . Hyeonu waved his hand when he heard Choi Yoon’s answer . He arrived at the hospital’s parking lot and got into a red car . Hyeonu’s mind was already full of what he would teach Choi Yoon today .
“Hope, let’s go home . ”
It was an hour before Hyeonu’s stream started . Choi Yoon had already met up with him in the arena . It was for Hyeonu to explain what he couldn’t talk about in detail during the stream .
“You must be determined . Today, you will learn about the basics of fighting . I taught you the counter last time because it takes the longest time to practice . Today, I want to improve your basic skills . Oh, have you seen the video of the livestream with Dwayne?”

Choi Yoon nodded slightly at Hyeonu’s words .
“Then you’ll know . What did I do the most with Dwayne?”
“Sparring . . . ”
“That’s right . Choi Yoon, you will spar with me a lot today, just like Dwayne did . ”
Choi Yoon’s face turned pale at Hyeonu’s words . When Choi Yoon watched Dwayne’s video, he felt that he should never fight with Hyeonu . This was because Hyeonu fought well and mercilessly . He picked the worst places and attacked . Perhaps he could be blocked once, but it would be hard to block him twice .
“I have to do it . . . ?” Choi Yoon couldn’t help wondering .
Hyeonu replied like it was natural, “Of course . This will continue for a long time . I will spar even if a magician comes . In the end, the goal is to win in the arena . ”
Choi Yoon felt resigned after hearing Hyeonu’s explanation . He thought he had to do it anyway, so it was better to give up early .
“Then take this sword . ”
Choi Yoon pulled out the Dwarf’s Single-edged Sword that had been converted to the Dwarf’s Sword .
“Think of it as a real ranking battle and do it as usual . You don’t have to worry because I’ll control the level . ”
After Hyeonu’s words, Choi Yoon took a deep breath and drew his sword, swinging it at Hyeonu’s poor-looking sword . Choi Yoon’s sword bounced off Hyeonu’s sword, and Hyeonu moved immediately .
‘Slow!’
Hyeonu’s movements weren’t as fast as what Choi Yoon had seen in the video . Choi Yoon was confident that Hyeonu’s movement was slower than he thought and blocked Hyeonu’s attack . It was Turning Over the Ground . This time, it was Hyeonu who was pushed out .
Choi Yoon attempted to attack Hyeonu who stepped back . It was a neat stab that aimed at Hyeonu’s shoulder . However, Hyeonu wasn’t easily beaten . Choi Yoon’s stab was directly caught by Hyeonu’s sword .
‘Is it like this?’ Choi Yoon was shocked .
He had never heard of blocking a stab like this, let alone seen it with his own eyes . The two men’s weapons vibrated . Choi Yoon couldn’t withstand the aftermath of the tremor and dropped his sword to the ground . He quickly picked up the sword from the ground and took a posture .
Hyeonu said to Choi Yoon, “Your skills have improved since the last time . I can see how hard you’ve tried, but it isn’t enough . Since you don’t have enough items and are lacking skills, you need to work hard to improve your basic skills . So far, it has only been a warm-up . From now on, I’ll move to the bronze level . You have to go through this level and win the ranking battles to get a bronze medal . ”
The moment Hyeonu’s words finished, his movements changed . He was moving much faster than before . Choi Yoon barely dodged Hyeonu’s attack . It wasn’t anything big . The attack was just a simple slash, but Choi Yoon found it hard to prevent even this . Choi Yoon was helpless in front of the overwhelming stat difference .
“Do you know why I taught you the counter? In your current state, the higher the ranking, the more helpless you will be . You’ll fall in despair at the high stats difference, just like now . ”
Choi Yoon gritted his teeth at Hyeonu’s words . Hyeonu was speaking the truth . It was why Choi Yoon hadn’t stayed in the arena prior to meeting Hyeonu . Every time he encountered a player with expensive items, he felt a terrible sense of deprivation .

“Still, things will be different now . A week of learning is never short . You just have to believe in me and follow me . Choi Yoon, I will lead you to obtain a bronze medal,” Hyeonu declared . His face was full of confidence . It wasn’t a bluff . Hyeonu had real confidence .
‘Is fatherhood the foundation?’
Choi Yoon’s improvement was surprising . In the last stream, he couldn’t even use the right counter . After a few days of practice, he could counter a single blow against someone of the same level . The problem was that the gap between Choi Yoon and the bronze medal was very large . It was disappointing but not impossible .
‘Three days . . . ’
There was still plenty of time .
“Now you have to adapt to this speed . If you can’t win against existing bronze medalists, then you can never get a bronze medal . It is only by lowering their ranking that you can enter that spot . ”
The hour passed by quickly . It was now time for the stream to start .
“Then let’s take a 10-minute break . I will start streaming now . I have to do the stream continuously, so keep thinking while resting . ”
Choi Yoon was weary and disappeared after Hyeonu’s words . He logged out . Hyeonu stared at the place where Choi Yoon disappeared for a moment before turning on the streaming mode . Today, he turned it on straight away without creating a waiting room . He had forgotten to turn it on in advance while practicing with Choi Yoon . Hyeonu thought about it . He needed something stimulating to attract people’s attention .
‘Yes, I can do this . ’
[Common Arena Swordsman’s Bronze Medal Challenge]
“It is frustrating . Frustrating . ”
The title of the streaming was just right to attract aggro . The power of the title soon appeared .
“Hello everyone . I am Alley Leader . It is nice to see you . ”
-Hi hi .
-Hello .
-I’m looking for something fun today .
-I waited for Monday and Friday only to see this .

-Me too . I’ve been waiting for Friday .
The viewers seemed to be waiting as they entered Hyeonu’s stream . The number of viewers exploded . It quickly exceeded 100,000 people . The power of the provocative title was great . There might be the name of ‘Alley Leader’, but the viewers didn’t usually gather so quickly . The 10-minute waiting room normally maintained between 100,000 and 150,000 viewers at the start .
“Do you know what’s on today? I’m going to do the Alley Leader Academy like last time . It is just like the title . ”
-Good, good . A common arena swordsman .
-Kya . . .
-If I watch today’s streaming, will I be able to get a bronze medal?
-Eh, no way . Go back .
-It isn’t possible . Why? It will be indirect learning . You have to learn it yourself .
The audience’s reaction was better than the last stream . Most of the viewers would be in the same or a similar situation to Choi Yoon . As time passed, they responded more favorably than Choi Yoon .
‘He’s here . ’
The protagonist Choi Yoon finally appeared .
“Then let’s meet the protagonist of the day . Come in . ”
Once Choi Yoon appeared, the viewers cheered him on .
-Uncle, have strength .
-Common swordsman, have strength!
-Aim for the bronze medal . Lightly .
-We can do it too!!
“Yes, thank you for the support . I’ll work hard . ” Choi Yoon looked at Hyeonu’s chat window and clenched his fists .
“What is my second student going to learn today? Let’s learn how to fight against a bronze medalist and win . How can you deal with opponents who have higher stats than you? I’m going to teach this . It is easy to do . You just have to practice until you’re used to it . ”
Hyeonu’s explanation was simple . They just had to learn with their body . If it didn’t work, then practice until it worked . If a person had no talent, then their body had to suffer .
-Uncle, control your face .
-Would you be able to if it was you? You have to be beaten up .
-It is easy to give up . Just accept it .
-He won’t be merciful anyway . Resign yourself to it .
Choi Yoon already knew this, but he couldn’t help his face falling at Hyeonu’s confirmation .
“Then I will start the practice straight away . Before that, the viewers may not know it well, so I prepared the data of an average bronze medalist . ”
Hyeonu played one video . The video was a common arena ranking video . Both men in the video had finished their second class advancement, and their sword energies clashed . Both men’s attacks were quick and powerful .
“This is a video of players who recently became bronze medalists . I will only move according to this standard . ”
-I can see the future .
-A sandbag . Isn’t this too much?
-It is true that the last person I met was really like this . . .
-Poor man . . . Have strength .
Hyeonu shrugged at the reaction of the viewers . “Everyone, if anyone sees your words, they’ll think I’m just beating people up . ”
-Then what?
-It is obvious even without looking .
-How shameless .
-Call Tang-E and add a buff to the uncle .
-Shouldn’t you be soft at first?
Hyeonu didn’t budge even upon seeing the audience’s words .
Rather, he spoke more shamelessly . “He can’t receive Tang-E’s buffs before the ranking battle anyway . What is the point of receiving it now? He’ll encounter an opponent like this eventually . Therefore, he has to practice like this early on in order to get used to it, right?”
After these words, Hyeonu no longer spoke . He started training with Choi Yoon .
