The final examination to exit the tower presents two options: a lengthy route or a path limited to three individuals. Leorio and Tonpa engage in combat to determine who remains, prompting Gon to devise an unconventional solution. The group selects the extended route and utilizes provided axes to demolish the barrier separating the paths. This action allows all five participants to proceed together, ensuring their collective success in the test. The narrative is part of the Hunter Exam arc, specifically identified as episode 17 of 31.
