What is actually the realistic difference between someone of Huntsman-level skill and a civilian and a soldier?

I've heard arguments that it's just a matter of choice, that to become a Huntsman-level fighter you have to go through rigourous exercise and training, and that might put some off; or that some people may not want a lifestyle of mandatory frequent violence - but come on be realistic (and empathetic). Nobody in their right mind would either refuse them/their children combat training in a world that's flooded with monsters, or pass up a chance to eventually unlock an incredible intrinsic power that is unique to them and them alone.

I mean I'd be satisfied if, to avoid this, there was perhaps some inherent trait in a portion of the population that means they alone can develop their auras to become strong enough to be soldiers, and then a group within that who can go further to be Huntsmen/Huntsmen-level fighters - and have the population perfectly fine with all these differences. Otherwise, short of having all civilians and soldiers either unable to lift a finger to better themselves I'm not sure what this difference is supposed to be, realistically speaking.
