While Kurapika, Killua, Gon, and Leorio were all getting along just fine, Zushi, who was also at the Sky Arena, found himself in a difficult and awkward position.
His win rate on the 200th floor was quite high, but he had never managed to earn ten wins before suffering four losses. As a result, he had never had the chance to challenge a floor master like Kurapika.
This made Zushi quite envious of Kurapika, and he also felt deeply discouraged.
He had actually started learning Nen ability last year about a week before Kurapika, and more than half a year before Gon and Killua.
But just look at the results now.
Kurapika's combat strength had already far surpassed his, and he had even successfully become a floor master at the Sky Arena.
Killua and Gon had also reached the 200th floor one after another, each with a hundred percent win rate after three victories.
Of course, that perfect record was only because they had fought three matches apiece and weren't going to fight any more. They weren't particularly interested in becoming floor masters.
Zushi, however, had to stay at the Sky Arena and keep challenging opponents if he wanted to become a floor master.
Killua and Gon had raised their combat strength to this level in less than half a year, and Zushi couldn't help but be amazed.
And these exceptionally gifted people—Kurapika, Killua, and Gon—had all been discovered and brought to the Sky Arena by the same person: Mr. Gelman.
Zushi also had to admire Mr. Gelman's keen eye.
Though Killua and Gon had their family bloodlines to thank in part, if you traced anyone's ancestry far enough, wouldn't you find a powerful ancestor somewhere?
What ultimately ruined a strong bloodline were the unworthy descendants of those great figures.
