Solo Leveling episode 4 Recap
Solo Leveling episode 4 picked up where the previous installment left off, showcasing Sung Jin-Woo's battle against the Steel-Fanged Lycan. Out of options, he swung his fist at the onrushing beast and landed a powerful punch that sent it flying backward.
Given his leveled-up strength stat, he held it off with his fists but realized its futility soon. The existence of his inventory struck him, and at the last moment, he pulled out a sword that slashed the Lycan's face in two. He easily dispatched two more Lycans and then figured out leveling up, stats, and abilities.
In essence, leveling up through combat was simpler than through daily quests. As he grasped this, he was faced with a horde of Lycans. Compared to the God Statue, these enemies posed little threat, and he made quick work of them. Now, at level 15, he made his way to the boss at the bottom of the station.

This Dungeon was home to the Blue Venom-Fanged Kasaka. Given his broken blade and the snake's hard scales, Jin-Woo initially struggled to do practically anything. However, managing to grab a hold of its neck, he shattered it with sheer strength and cleared the Dungeon.
The episode ended with Jin-Woo lending an anonymous hand to a group of Hunters fighting a Stone Golem. Analyzing the situation, he javelined his broken blade at it and broke its defenses, allowing the Hunters to land the killing blow.
