The subsequent scenes showcase Jinwoo’s epic battle against the Spider. Unleashing his true strength, he astounds Jinho, who mistakes him for a False Ranker (hunters capable of manipulating their powers and deceiving their ranking). Jinwoo initially struggles against the boss, planning strategies to defeat it.

Despite struggling, Jinwoo persists in his assault. Using his Dash skill, he attempts to strike its head with Kasaka's dagger, but the monster's resilient hide blocks his strike. Jinwoo, however, persists in his assault.

Nevertheless, as Jinwoo's speed increases and he prepares to deliver a decisive blow, his fatigue reaches 70, causing him to collapse. Just as the spider prepares to deliver a fatal strike, Jinwoo's full recovery skill from daily quest rewards activates, allowing him to land the finishing blow and pierce the monster's tough hide.

Jinwoo emerges victorious, and levels up further with his victory.

Jinho is taken aback by Jinwoo's ability to defeat a C-Rank dungeon boss singlehandedly. In the unfolding events of Solo Leveling episode 6, Dongsuk and his party enter the boss's room.

Finding out that they defeated the boss, he proposes Jinho to kill Jinwoo in exchange for sparing his life, even extending an invitation for Jinho to join their group.

However, deep down, Dongsuk feels intimidated by Jinho's powers as he mistakes the latter for being the one to defeat the boss.

However, Jinho sides with Jinwoo, confronting Dongsuk and his allies to protect the protagonist, much to everyone's surprise.

In Solo Leveling episode 6, as Jinwoo and Jinho confront Dongsuk and his companions, the System presents Jinwoo with an urgent quest to defeat his enemies and ensure his own safety.

This quest arises from the imminent danger to Sung Jinwoo's life. The System even warns Jinwoo of the consequences if he fails to complete it.

Before Jinwoo can react, he is caught off guard by an enemy attack. While his adversaries believe they have defeated him, Jinwoo realizes that the System is intent on keeping him alive.

He acknowledges his own strength, surmising that the System sees value in him and vice versa.
