Third Person P.O.V.

The remaining eleven applicants head to the Final Phase, having passed the exam's Fourth Phase.

'If I'm really going to fight Noshi then I must use En since I can't see it.' Y/N thought.

"Well, gentlemen, did you get plenty of rest? This hotel is owned by the Hunter Exam Selection Committee. The place is all yours until the battles have concluded." Netero said to the applicants.

Then a man bringing a board that covered with a cloth to Netero's side.

"For the Final Phase, we will be holding a one-on-one tournament." Netero said and pull off the cloth to reveal the brackets with the covered bottom part.

"So only the last person standing passes?" Leorio asked.

'I don't really think so.' Y/N thought.

"No. One win is all you need to pass." Netero said.

"One win?" Gon asked.

"Then, in this tournament..." Leorio asked.

"The winners are removed from competition, while the losers continue up the bracket. In other words, the person who finishes at the top will not pass. Does everyone understand now?" Netero explained.

"So you're saying that only one person will fail." Hanzo said.

"Exactly, and here is the bracket." Netero said and reveals the bottom part of the bracket.

"Impressive, right? After all, everyone has at least two chances to win

"Impressive, right? After all, everyone has at least two chances to win." Netero said.

"But some people, like #294, #405, #44, and #404 get five chances." Pokkle commented.

"Why didn't you use a balanced bracket?" Bodoro asked.

"A question that must be on everyone's mind... This bracket was assembled based on your performances throughout the entire exam. Those who performed better received more chances." Netero explained.

Killua seemed to be surprised and Y/N noticed this.

"That doesn't sound right. Can you explain how you scored our performances?" Killua asked.

"No!" Netero exclaimed with a crazy face and shook his head.

"Why not?" Killua asked again surprised at first and then slightly irritated.

Netero laughs a little before answering, "Your scores are classified information. So, I can't tell you everything. But I can explain our methods. First, we consider 3 major criteria: physical strength, mental strength, and overall impression. For physical strength, we use an aggregate of agility, flexibility, endurance and perception. For mental strength, we use an aggregate of resilience, adaptability, judgment, and creativity.
