This is how Sung Jin Woo become so strong And Gained powers!

Sung Jin Woo was so weak that he came to be known as the ‘weakest’ hunter in the world of Solo Leveling Manha.

Sung is the main protagonist who is left with no other option but to choose the ‘hunter’ job when his mother falls sick with an incurable disease caused by the effect of dungeons opening all across the globe.

He was responsible for taking care of his younger sister who went to high school, and also paying his mother’s medical bills.

However, things changed for good when Sung Jin Woo, along with his party members, encountered a double gate dungeon, which was dangerous enough to eliminate almost half of their party.

This article will explain everything about the powers of Sung Jin Woo and how he became so strong to be able to defeat all the other Monarchs on his own.

This is how Sung Jin Woo got So strong:

Sung JinWoo’s progress in terms of strength and abilities depended upon his thirst for power.

He was a person who had experienced the pain of being the weakest hunter in the world. And upon witnessing an opportunity that came in the form of a ‘system’, Sung Jin Woo worked harder every day.

He was to eliminate monsters to level up. That means, the more he engages in battles and wins, the stronger he gets.

• The greater the foe, the more experience and levels he would gain upon eliminating them, just like video games.

• This was the basic factor for Sung Jin Woo to get stronger.

• In simple terms, Sung would become strong with every fight he won.

Now imagine if you were given such an opportunity to slay monsters and get stronger, what would you do?

As for me, I would work as hard as possible. If slaying monsters every time increases my strength, I would continue to do it until I become the strongest.

And this is how Sung Jin Woo used the system to rise to the top. No wonder he became so strong.

However, Sung didn’t gain all of his powers just by levelling up. It was Ashborn who decided to pass down his title and all his abilities to Sung Jin Woo after Sung had won the trust of Ashborn.

How did Sung Jin Woo get powers?

It was during the double dungeon arc that Sung was selected by the system to be the player of a ‘keep getting stronger’ game, when he was given the option to either die or be a player.

This game was designed by the ‘Architech‘, a ruler who created the game to help Ashborn (The Shadow Monarch) find a perfect and suitable vessel to withstand his overwhelming powers.

What happened in the double gate dungeon?

Double gate dungeons are considered to be dangerous and should not be approached upon encountering.

Any lower-class party should immediately inform the Hunter’s association of this incident.
However, Sung Jin Woo and most of his party members agreed to enter the gate to make a good amount of extra cash.

Upon entering the double Dungeon, the gate closed and party members were killed one by one by the statues present inside.

Why did ‘The System’ choose Sung Jin Woo?

You might have across the phrase, “Hard and determination pays, not immediately, but definitely.”

This is what happened to Sung Jin Woo.

He was faced with circumstances that led him to walk the path of a hunter. The job where your lives are at risk in every raid.

He worked as a weak E-rank hunter for four years just to endanger his life in every raid.

One could only be considered lucky to be able to survive those dangerous raids for such a long duration without any skill or abilities.

But the reason for Sung JinWoo clinging through life was his family.

Even during the double dungeon incident, Sung displayed his courage and was ready to be the sacrifice for the sake of other’s safe escape.

Deep inside he wanted to live and go along with the others but instead chose to stay and face all the statues on his own.

His history of being a hunter and his courage during the double dungeon incident impressed Ashborn and The Architect to select JinWoo as the player of their System by inheriting Ashborn’s powers level by level.

And this is why Sung Jin Woo was selected to be the player of the system.

However, the System would not spoon-feed JinWoo. And he would be required to perform as instructed.

These are the daily quests that Sung Jin Woo had complete;

• Push-ups = 100
• Sit-ups = 100
• Squats = 100
• Running 100 km

At first, Sung ignored the system’s notifications and didn’t bother to fulfil the quest.

And was teleported to a dimension filled with giant centipede and was instructed to avoid being eaten by them for four hours.

After this incident, Sung-Jin Woo realised the originality of the system’s existence and seized this opportunity to get as strong as possible.

Why did Ashborn bestow his powers upon Sung Jin Woo?

Ashborn’s initial plan was not to pass his title of ‘Shadow Monarch’ and his powers down to Sung Jin Woo.

The system designed by the ‘Architech’ ensured that Sung Jin Woo would become strong enough to be the new vessel for Ashborn by constantly levelling up.

If that were to happen, Sung Jin Woo might have lost consciousness forever. His soul would have been lost into the void and Ashborn would have become the new owner of that body.

However, the powers provided by the system belonged to Ashborn, and not the ‘Architech’.

Furthermore, Ashborn chose to allow Sung Jin Woo to succeed him as the Next Shadow Monarch after observing Jin Woo closely after the latter embraced the System.

And realized that Sung possessed an unwavering capacity for moral judgment in addition to pure, unselfish, and compassionate nature.

Who is Ashborn?

Ahsborn created by the ‘Absolue being‘ along with the other Monarchs and rulers to entertain him by constantly waging war against each other. The rulers were created to save the other creation of the ‘Absolute’ being, and the Monarchs were created to destroy the other creations.

This was purposefully planned by the ‘Absolute’ being so that the Monarchs and Rulers would always be engaged in constant war, and become a source of entertainment for him.

Ashborn was initially a ruler, however, he later decided to change his sides and join the Monarchs in a war against Rulers, because they killed the Absolute being who was the creator of everything in the Solo Leveling verse.

Who is Strong, Sung Jin Woo or Ashborn?

Ashborn is known to be the strongest right after the ‘Absolute being’. He possessed such strength that was feared by the Monarchs even when he was fighting by their side.

He also commanded an Army of formidable Shadow Soldiers who would easily overwhelm some Monarchs as well.

But after Sung Jin Woo reawakened with Ashborn’s full power, he is said to be stronger than Ashborn to great degrees.

As Jin Woo progressed, he added several Shadow Soldiers to his army. And the experiences he gained while levelling up from the bottom helped greatly in shaping his decision-making abilities.

Let’s look at how strong Sung Jin Woo is:

He is beyond the reach of any National Level hunter from Solo Leveling. He not only gained all the powers of Ashborn but also his loyal army of shadow Soldiers.

After he defeats Antares, the second strongest Monarch after Ashborn, Sung decides to go back in time and repeat everything from the beginning, eliminating all the Monarchs alone, so that none of his loved ones would have to bear the sufferings caused by the clash.

• Sung Jin Woo is strong enough to fight all the other Monarchs for 27 years and defeat them one after another without any rest. This feat was confirmed by Sung himself.

• He is strong enough to keep fighting for 27 years without any breaks. Just goes to show his durability and tolerance capabilities.

• Each Monarch is said to be a Universal level threat and Sung defeated them all.

• Sung Jin Woo is so powerful that none of the mightiest characters from animes like Naruto, Jujutsu Kaisen, Bleach, and MHA could pose any threat to him.

• He has his domain where Sung is equivalent to God and nothing could ever defeat him inside there.

• He can Teleport to almost any part of the Universe by opening a gate.

• He can also Teleport using the ‘Shadow Exchange’ ability that allows him to swap locations with any of his Shadow Soldiers, regardless of how far they may be.

• Both the teleportation skills come without any cooldown.

• Sung is faster than the speed of light.

• His Shadow Soldiers will respawn immediately after being killed.

• He is an incredible dagger user and possess immense AP.
