As the Chairman reveals the bracket, he explains all the details on why some applicants have more chances passing the exam than others based on their previous performances. After the Chairman completes his explanation about their performances and the rules on winning, the final phase begin.

Men in a black suit and wearing sunglasses then came to the center of the room while everyone else in the room except James and Gon walked away.

As the other men in black went to the side one of them stood raising his hand to James and Gon.

"The first match is James versus Gon, please step forward, i will serve as the referee, my name is Masta, the battle rules are quite simple, weapons are allowed, no cheating, if your opponent admits defeat, you win."

"However! If you kill your opponent, you will be immediately disqualified, all remaining applicants will pass, and the exam will end, best of luck."

James looked at Gon in front of him with a slight headache.

Although he wasn't afraid to face Gon, he really didn't want to face him, because with Gon's will, trying to make him give up is impossible, don't forget that he is the protagonist of a shonen.

He is not the strongest candidate but surely one of the strongest mentally.

"Gon if you fight against me, know that, I will fight you with all my strength, you could be hurt, paralyzed or even die, so I'm asking you to give up."

Killua, further on, looked at Gon with a slightly nervous expression.

"Gon you can't beat him, he's much too strong for you, it's better to give up."

Gon then looked at James and smiled with a firm expression on his face.

"Mr. James, thank you for your concern, but I won't give up, because I have to pass Hunter's test to fulfill a wish that is dear to me."

"I see..."

James then closed his eyes for a moment before reopening them and staring at Gon as an unhealthy aura emanating a morbid feeling emanated from him.

All the Nen uninitiated people in the room immediately shivered and unconsciously went into a defensive posture.

But unbeknownst to them, they were protected by the Ten of the exam committee.

He walked slowly towards Gon who looked at him with a frightened look as he began to sweat.

"I must give up, I must give up..."

Those thoughts echoed in Gon's head as he felt that his body was paralyzed and as heavy as lead.

But as he was a few meters away from Gon, James stopped and his aura disappeared.

"If I keep attacking him with my Nen, he could become disabled or die from a forced awakening."

Gon who was no longer assaulted by James' aura jumped back putting a safe distance between him and James.

James scratched his head as if he didn't know what to do and then an idea came into his head.

"Gon, you told me that you want to fulfill a wish, so maybe I could help you, I'm not the strongest person in the world but I'm surely the one with the most information."

Gon who was still in a state of fear and was ready to fight then looked at James with bright eyes as if what happened earlier had never happened.

"You can really help me, Mr. James."

"Of course."

"Don't believe it Gon!" shouted Leorio further on.

"Warning, know that it is forbidden to disturb the participants during the fight or else you will fail the test." Says Masta in a stern voice.

Leorio then fell silent hastily, putting his hands in front of his mouth.

"You mustn't believe him, it's obviously a psychological tactic." Kurapika thought.

"As long as you give up I'll give you any information, and I'm sure I know what you want, you should keep your voice down, I have excellent hearing and if I'm not mistaken you want to find your father."

"Huh?" Gon was then slightly surprised before scratching his head in embarrassment.

"If you can really give me information about my father, then I forfeit."

"Are you sure?" Asked Masa.

"Gon!"cried Leorio, Kurapika and Killua.

"Last warning, It is forbidden to disturb the fighters, next time you will be eliminated from the test."

"Yes, I'm sure."

"Applicant 271, James Win."

Then James said to Gon.

"There is a unique game created by a small group of strong people, one of them is called Ging Freecss, you are also called Gon Freecs, you will surely find clues about this game, according to my sources it will be auctioned in York Shin city, auctions take place there annually between the 1st and 10th of September. Rare and untraceable items, treasures from all over the world are collected there."

"The game's called, Greed Island."

Then James left to sit in a corner of the room under Gon's bright eyes.

"Thank you Mr. James."
