The Handsomer You Are, the Stronger You Become

The effects of the training were remarkable.@@novelbin@@

Roughly a week had passed since the tournament began.
Hyunsoo had made it through the second, third, and fourth rounds.

In his previous life, he had faced Kyle in the second round and was eliminated.
This time, however, he advanced with overwhelming victories.

His training partners also reaped the benefits.

Although Han Sungbin was eliminated in the fifth round and Jin Seoyun in the sixth, both had managed to rank within the top 1,000.

By the time the preliminaries concluded and the top 16 contestants were determined, only Kang Hyunsoo and Choi Jiwoo remained.

It was disappointing that the other two hadn’t made it, but the results still exceeded expectations.

In his past life, only Choi Jiwoo had reached the top 16. This time, Hyunsoo had joined her.

Thus began the much-anticipated top 16 round of the Ultimate Swordsmanship Tournament.

With different contestants advancing this time, the audience's enthusiasm had completely shifted.

Step. Step.

As Kang Hyunsoo walked onto the duel stage at Seoul’s main stadium, a wave of cheers erupted.

“Kang Hyunsoo! Kang Hyunsoo!”

“Ahhh! He’s so handsome!”

“They’re saying the hunter who performed at the Paju Stadium is also Kang Hyunsoo?”

“I saw the photos too. He looks even slimmer now. Did he go on a diet?”

The crowd's excitement was palpable.

• "You seem to have some serious ticket power, Master. I don’t recall this many people attending the top 16 round last time."

• "So all these additional spectators must have come to see you, Master. How does it feel to be the center of everyone’s attention?"

• "Yes, Master!!"

• I had no choice. The fewer cards I reveal, the better.
