Worthless Profession: Dragon Tamer

Chapter 1009, Challenge Yourself

Translator: Silavin

Lu Fan’s words immediately drew dissent from those around him.

The person who had spoken earlier said with a mocking tone, “You’ve killed all the Monsters, with your own ability? Haha, you’re from a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family. How could your score be higher than Kong Lingqi’s? Kong Lingqi is known as the number one below the Sixth Profession Change. Among Fifth Profession Players, no one is his match. Yet, even he only managed two or three hundred thousand points. What gives you two the right to claim a million points!? To dare say it’s not fake? This is so obviously fake it’s beyond belief!”

Lu Fan glanced at him and smiled. “Just because you haven’t seen something doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. Isn’t that the classic mindset of a frog at the bottom of a well?”

These words immediately enraged the man, who slammed his hand on the nearby table. “Brat! Who are you calling a frog at the bottom of a well!? I come from a Supreme Tier Ancient Noble Family, and I’m a Direct Decedent. I am a high-ranking member of the Family, belonging to the197th generation. Even amongst Supreme Tier Ancient Noble Families. What in this world haven’t I seen?! Forget Epic Grade equipment, I’ve even seen and touched Legendary Grade equipment before. As for Forbidden Areas, I’ve entered more than I can count. You calling me a frog at the bottom of a well is simply laughable! The bridges I’ve crossed are longer than the roads you’ve walked!”

His words only made Lu Fan laugh harder.

[Touched Legendary Grade equipment? Look at the equipment I’m wearing. My Dragon Hunter’s Will Set. Don’t they exceed Legendary Grade? Enter Forbidden Areas? I’ve killed countless Divine Beings in those Forbidden Areas. You wish to show off in front of me, and still dare claim you’re not a frog at the bottom of a well?] Lu Fan could not be bothered to argue with such a person and simply ignored him.

However, the more Lu Fan remained silent, the more convinced the surrounding people became that his score must have serious problems.

Some even suggested to Situ Xiong to invalidate their results and immediately expel the two from the Situ Family.

This put Situ Xiong in a very difficult position. Both emotionally and rationally, since Lu Fan and Ye Wuxian had achieved the highest scores, they should theoretically be entitled to two slots.

But if he gave them the slots, it would invite criticism and be difficult to convince everyone.

If this continued, the Situ Family’s joint exploration with other Families would likely end as a laughingstock.

While Situ Xiong struggled with this dilemma, Situ Qianqian beside him looked at Lu Fan with obvious hesitation, clearly wanting to ask for his help.

Lu Fan understood and fell into thought.

Honestly, his first impression of the Situ Family had not been good, but after Situ Qianqian appeared, his opinion had improved somewhat.

As for Situ Xiong, Lu Fan could see that he was actually a decent person. After all, in this situation, many would simply invalidate his results to appease the crowd and give the two slots to others.

That way, the other Supreme Tier Ancient Noble Families would be satisfied.

And the only ones he would offend would be from a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family. In their eyes, this was a great trade without much drawback.

But Situ Xiong had not done that, showing he had his own principles.

And now with Situ Qianqian seeking his help, Lu Fan naturally could not just sit by and do nothing.

“Everyone shut up!” He suddenly shouted loudly, and instantly the entire venue fell silent.

Lu Fan smiled and addressed everyone present. “Why can’t someone from a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family take first and second place? You people from Supreme Tier Ancient Noble Families doubt my results simply because you lack experience and insight. Since you all suspect our scores are fake, that’s easy to resolve. Whoever wants to take our two slots, step forward now and fight us. If you win, the slots are yours. If you lose, shut your mouths and get lost!”

Lu Fan spoke with tremendous presence, immediately intimidating everyone.

However, moments later, everyone recovered and realized this was a rare opportunity.

What was so impressive about someone from a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family? Since Lu Fan proposed that anyone wanting his slots could fight him, naturally someone would accept the challenge.

Zhao Lingfeng was the first to step forward, declaring loudly, “Then I, Zhao Lingfeng of the Zhao Family, challenge you!”

She stepped forward and said coldly, “Originally, one of the slots should have been mine. But you two not only cheated, you also stole my slot. This matter can’t be settled just by you giving up the slots! I’ll personally take back what should have been mine and teach you a lesson. I’ll let you know that people from Supreme Tier Ancient Noble Families aren’t to be trifled with!”

Zhao Lingfeng’s words drew cheers from many around her.

At the same time, several others were eager to join Zhao Lingfeng in challenging Lu Fan and Ye Wuxian.

After all, Lu Fan had said he wanted two people to challenge him and Ye Wuxian for their two slots.

If Zhao Lingfeng took one slot, there was still another slot for others to claim.

And among these people, the Player who ranked above Zhao Lingfeng was naturally the first choice to team up with her.

After all, like Zhao Lingfeng, he should have received a slot but it too had been stolen by Lu Fan and Ye Wuxian.

However, before he could speak, another person suddenly spoke up, silencing the entire venue.

“Let me have a go!” The speaker was none other than Kong Lingqi.

Kong Lingqi’s strength was known to everyone. He was absolutely the strongest person present, including Situ Xiong.

However, he had already secured a slot for himself, so there was no need for him to challenge Lu Fan.

Seeming to sense everyone’s thoughts, Kong Lingqi said, “I, Kong, have always liked competing for first place in everything I do. Today’s ranking has me in third place, which displeases me greatly. So, I need to properly punish the two cheaters who stole my win to vent this frustration in my chest. As for the slot, that’s actually not difficult to resolve. If Zhao Lingfeng and I join forces and defeat these two, it will prove their slots were indeed obtained through cheating. Then both emotionally and rationally, they should be removed, and those ranked behind them should inherit the slots in order.”

Kong Lingqi’s reasoning was sound, and no one present dared to refute him.

As for the sixth ranked Player, having Kong Lingqi fight on his behalf, naturally that would be more secure. He could still claim the slot without taking on any risk. Wasn’t this all benefits with no downsides?

So, he had no objections and agreed to let Kong Lingqi take his place in fighting Lu Fan and Ye Wuxian.
