The plot of this webtoon is set in a world where portals connecting the human world to the supernatural have now become a common occurrence. However, many hunters step up to the challenge and now explore these dungeons for resources as a job. 

Among these hunters is our E-rank protagonist, Sung Jin-woo, attempting to make a living. But with a sudden twist of fate, he ends up being trapped in a dungeon and so becomes a player in a System. This system allows him to level up by completing tasks and then grants him unique abilities.

However, there is more to the system than it seems, and with the constant appearance of portals, lives are put in harm’s way. And so it is the hunters and their Guilds that have to step up to save the day. The contents below may include some spoilers, so fans are requested to proceed with caution for the Top 15 Strongest Hunters in Solo Leveling Ranked.

Top 15 Strongest Hunters in Solo Leveling Novel Ranked-

• 15. Hwang Dong Su –

In the recent arc of the manga, Hwang Dong Su bore the spotlight for a considerable amount of time. Although a minor antagonist, he gained a boost from Norma and was considered to be stronger than most of his Korean S Rank counterparts.

The only commendable part about him is the fact that he was able to sustain a beat down from Sung Jin-Woo for a short moment. Other than that, he was also deemed worthy for a shadow extraction and now goes by the name Greed, which might hint at the true potential of his strength.

• 14. Choi Jong In –
