Worthless Profession: Dragon Tamer

Chapter 1007, Two People from Second Tier Ancient Noble Families?!

Translator: Silavin

Who would have expected that Situ Xiong, after glancing at the Dungeon Instance, would wear an expression of difficulty and explain. “If everyone had exited the Dungeon Instance, we could indeed end the Dungeon Instance and announce everyone’s points and rankings. But, right now, there are still people in the Dungeon Instance who are still attempting to Clear it. Please wait a little longer. Once everyone has emerged, we will naturally close the Dungeon Instance.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present immediately showed puzzlement.

Because since Zhao Lingfeng, the other four people who had emerged were all experts known to those present. Although they were all Fifth Profession Players, among Fifth Profession Players, they were all in a league of their own. Each one was ridiculously strong.

For them to obtain one of the Situ Family’s five slots was completely within everyone’s expectations.

Especially the last one to emerge: Kong Lingqi from the Kong Family.

This Kong Lingqi, though appearing short and rotund with unremarkable features, was an absolute expert. He was just a step away from his Sixth Profession Change.

For such a person to emerge last and obtain the highest score was completely reasonable.

Many had even concluded before the Dungeon Instance opened that Kong Lingqi was absolutely the strongest among all those present.

Entering the Dungeon Instance and accumulating points, everyone believes Kong Lingqi ranking first was a certainty.

Just now, when Kong Lingqi had exited the Dungeon Instance, no one from the other Noble Families had said their Family members were still in the Dungeon Instance. Everyone should have emerged.

Therefore, no one could imagine who exactly was still in the Dungeon Instance attempting to Clear it and had yet to emerge.

Consequently, someone dissatisfied questioned. “Deputy Patriarch, everyone from all the Noble Families present has already exited the Dungeon Instance, haven’t they? Even Kong Lingqi has already emerged from the Dungeon Instance. How could there possibly still be anyone else inside?” Could it be that your Situ Family is deliberately saying this to delay time? Are these so-called rankings based on Dungeon Instance points all false?”

As soon as these words were spoken, quite a few people around drew in sharp breaths.

After all, daring to question the Situ Family like this required no small amount of courage.

Although the person speaking also came from a powerful Supreme Tier Ancient Noble Family, whose influence was no less than the Situ Family’s, daring to raise such a question in front of so many people showed a certain lack of respect for the Situ Family.

Situ Xiong’s expression changed slightly, though he did not become angry because of it.

He smiled and was about to speak when Situ Qianqian at his side snorted coldly and took the initiative to speak. “Our Situ Family has always held our conduct to the highest standard. Our reputation is known to all those present. Since we said we would determine slots based on Dungeon Instance point rankings, we will only look at point rankings. We will never resort to any underhanded methods. The reason we’re not closing the Dungeon Instance is precisely because there are indeed still people inside.”

“Look carefully. The Dungeon Instance Transport Array is still glowing, with small flickers floating about. Isn’t this precisely the characteristic of someone being inside a Dungeon Instance?”

The questioner remained unconvinced, saying. “But you keep saying there are people, yet how are we supposed to know who has yet to return? Clearly, everyone is already—”

He could not continue his words, and his expression suddenly became awkward.

Because he realized there truly were people who had not returned from the Dungeon Instance. It was precisely those two people from a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family, who had been ignored earlier. They existed like air, who no one acknowledged.

Previously, Lu Fan and Ye Wuxian’s presence had been far too low. So low that everyone had nearly forgotten about their existence.

Everyone had been discussing which of the Supreme Tier Ancient Noble Families present could obtain the slots. Who would pay attention to two people from a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family?

Therefore, when all the candidates had returned, everyone had naturally forgotten about Lu Fan and Ye Wuxian.

Seeing the other party fall silent, Situ Qianqian knew he had realized his earlier words were just stirring up trouble.

Naturally, she would not easily let him off, snorting coldly. “What’s wrong? Have you remembered whether there are still people in the Dungeon Instance who haven’t emerged? Our Situ Family conducts affairs with fairness and transparency. We can’t force people out of the Dungeon Instance just because they haven’t emerged yet, can we!?”

“Well…” The other party was momentarily at a loss for words. However, this person was also an expert of some renowned Supreme Tier Ancient Noble Family and naturally could not simply admit his mistake and apologize to Situ Qianqian.

He stiffened his neck and said. “Even if there are people still inside, so what? Everyone knows the only two people remaining are two youths from a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family. Based on their background, judging by their ages, they couldn’t possibly be strong enough to last this long. For two such youths to be the last to emerge, doesn’t this itself raise questions?”

“In my opinion, the Dungeon Instance your Situ Family set up must have an exploit. This is why these two have yet to emerge, and have managed to stay inside until now. If you can’t provide a clear explanation, even if the final slots are determined by Dungeon Instance points, your Situ Family will find it difficult to convince us, won’t you?”

Although his words were certainly forcing the issue, undeniably, quite a few people present agreed with his viewpoint and nodded.

Indeed, for two youths from a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family to still not have emerged by now was somewhat unreasonable.

At this moment, Situ Xiong’s patience had reached its limit.

However, as the Situ Family’s Deputy Patriarch, he naturally had to maintain a certain bearing.

He did not get angry or rebuke the other party, but instead coughed lightly and said. “Our Situ Family’s Dungeon Instance isn’t complex and should have no exploits to speak of. Regardless, the rules were established and that’s that. No matter how these two managed to persevere inside until now without emerging, as long as their points are high enough to reach the top five in rankings, theoretically, they should be entitled to a slot.”

The person from before fell silent, knowing that continuing would potentially worsen his relationship with the Situ Family.

For the sake of a single slot, offending the Situ Family was not wise. Even if it was a slot for exploring a precious Dungeon Instance.

In any case, all results would be known once those two emerged.

After waiting approximately another hour, Lu Fan and Ye Wuxian still showed no signs of emerging.

Now, not only were those present growing extremely impatient, even Situ Xiong’s expression had turned unpleasant.

Because from the Dungeon Instance’s opening until now, a full two hours had already passed.

Two hours in the outside world equaled an entire day inside the Dungeon Instance.

The Dungeon Instance their Situ Family had designed existed for only this duration.
