Worthless Profession: Dragon Tamer

Chapter 144, My Resistance Is a Bit Higher

Translator: Silavin

Not only were ordinary students stunned, even Jiang Fengyun’s eyes turned green with envy.

He thought his own University Points were already quite plenty. After receiving the first place reward and winning many points through the VIP Arena, he only had just over 7,000 points.

But Lu Fan’s points exceeded his by over 10,000!

To be honest, the total points of all Wind Cloud Pavilion members combined still did not match Lu Fan’s.

Putting it that way, what Lu Fan said made sense. Since they were betting all their points, Lu Fan’s 17,000 versus Jiang Fengyun and Xu Jing’s barely 10,000 was indeed unfair.

When the 17,642 points were revealed, Jiang Fengyun’s breathing became noticeably quicker.

Seeing that his bait had tempted Jiang Fengyun, Lu Fan inwardly laughed and decisively said: “So, are you going to take this bet or not? I alone will bet all my points against your entire Wind Cloud Pavilion. Likewise, all of you will bet all your points against me. If you don’t dare, I’m really not interested in today’s match.”

Jiang Fengyun looked at Lu Fan, clearly tempted by all of Lu Fan’s points, He lowered his head to whisper to Xu Jing.

Everyone at the scene was surprised by Lu Fan’s enormous amount of points. After hearing Lu Fan’s words, they were even more shocked, all discussing whether Lu Fan had gone mad.

Let alone why he had so many University Points, just the fact that he was using all his points to challenge Wind Cloud Pavilion was absurd.

Jiang Fengyun and Xu Jing were already formidable opponents, and fighting alone without even Jian Ying, Lu Fan’s chances of winning were not high. Now, he wanted to challenge the entire Wind Cloud Pavilion? Was this not him just handing over all his points!?

Everyone believes Jiang Fengyun must be grinning from ear to ear right now.

In fact, that was indeed the case. Although Jiang Fengyun felt this might be a ploy, he also had his own preparations and was not afraid of any tricks Lu Fan might play.

These were 17,000 points! Enough to cover three to four years’ worth of expenditure if he got them all!

After a brief discussion with Xu Jing, Jiang Fengyun made up his mind and said to Lu Fan. “Since you want to play with such high stakes, I’ll take the bet! I’ll bet all the points of our Wind Cloud Pavilion members against you. But, you don’t need to face everyone from Wind Cloud Pavilion. It will still be Xu Jing and me fighting. If you can beat the two of us, the points are yours!”

Lu Fan thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. After all, his goal was the points of everyone from Wind Cloud Pavilion. As long as Jiang Fengyun was willing to make the bet, he had achieved his purpose.

Under everyone’s eager gaze, Lu Fan put up his 17,000 plus points, and the members of Wind Cloud Pavilion also put up their points, which totaled around 18,000 points. The difference was not much compared to Lu Fan’s, so neither side cared about this small discrepancy.

The amount of points bet in this duel was probably the highest in Dragon Capital University for the past 20 to 30 years. This further raised the enthusiasm of everyone present, because they all thought that the reason Lu Fan dared to play with such high stakes was either because he had a scheme, or because—

He was going to summon his Pet Dragon!

Otherwise, there was absolutely no reason for Lu Fan to dare challenge the entire Wind Cloud Pavilion.

At this moment, with the bets set, no matter what, the competition for the title of Freshmen King was about to have its result.

As a protective shield enveloped the stage, a barrier separated the two sides.

On the barrier, a number was counting down, indicating that the battle was about to begin.

Three.

Two.

One.

Start!

The barrier instantly disappeared. Lu Fan did not make any move, but on the other side, Xu Jing and Jiang Fengyun acted immediately, starting to cast Buffs.

Especially Xu Jing, holding his staff, casted his Skills at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, multiple Skills all swarmed over Lu Fan’s head.

Those familiar with Xu Jing knew that he had the Hidden Profession, Mage Silencer. It had the Profession Characteristics of being able to cast various Debuffs to restrict their opponents. Particularly the Silence Skill, which was unbeatable. Any opponent facing a Mage Silencer had never been able to cast a single Skill from start to finish before being easily eliminated by Jiang Fengyun.

Seeing so many Skills instantly cast on Lu Fan, many of Lu Fan’s supporters felt worried for him. After all, Lu Fan’s most impressive Skills were his two Dragon Language Magic Skills.

Now that Xu Jing had cast Debuffs on him, these two Dragon Language Magic Skills could no longer be used. Moreover, Xu Jing could not only prohibit Skills but also restrict movement.

Although the duration was not long, once his movement was restricted, Lu Fan’s High Strength Attribute would be useless, and he could only be bullied by Jiang Fengyun.

At this moment, Jiang Fengyun was also enveloped in a layer of shadow, which was his Profession Skill.

Under the Buff of this Skill, his Agility Attribute would surge, and he could turn into a shadow at any time to avoid Physical Attacks.

Combined with Xu Jing’s Silence Skill, Jiang Fengyun was nearly invincible.

Seeing that Lu Fan was immediately hit with many Buffs from Xu Jing, Jiang Fengyun smiled. He did not rush to attack, but gently caressed his sword and said with a cold smile. “Lu Fan, it seems like I’ve really misjudged you before. You might actually have a Pet Dragon. I think you must have been hiding this trump card all along, which is why you dared to bet 17,000 points, right? But, coming alone and challenging our entire Wind Cloud Pavilion, just to use your Pet Dragon to turn the tables at the end and swindle our points? Do you really think I am a fool who would fall for such an obvious trap?”

Hearing this, Lu Fan immediately laughed. “But haven’t you already fallen for it?”

“Hehe, the one who’s fallen for it is you!” Jiang Fengyun laughed out loud, “Try and see if you can still summon your Pet Dragon now!? Let me tell you something, one of Xu Jing’s Skills is called Pet Prohibition, which prevents the opponent from summoning their Pets for one minute after being cast. One minute is enough time for me to defeat you. You might have a very strong Pet Dragon, but in this sparring match against us, you won’t have the chance to summon it! Now, the title of Freshmen King is mine, and your 17,000 points are also mine!”

After saying this, Jiang Fengyun let out a low growl: “Xu Jing, use your Rigid Skill to seal his movements. I want to teach him a lesson first, so he won’t be so arrogant in the future!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he had already charged forward with his sword.

At the same time, Xu Jing also cast a Skill, putting another Debuff on Lu Fan.

The effect of this Skill was to make Lu Fan enter a brief state of rigidity. In previous matches for the freshmen exams, this Skill had repeatedly achieved great results, helping Jiang Fengyun create many opportunities to instantly defeat their opponents.

Seeing this Skill cast on Lu Fan, Jiang Fengyun thrust his sword forward, aiming straight for Lu Fan’s shoulder.

This strike was enough for him to pin Lu Fan to the ground. Jiang Fengyun plans to step on Lu Fan a few times in front of everyone, making him completely lose face!

Jiang Fengyun thought that because Lu Fan was affected by Xu Jing’s Skill, this strike would definitely hit.

However, when he thrust his sword out, he found that he had missed!

Lu Fan had slightly turned his body, effortlessly dodging the strike.

Jiang Fengyun was instantly dumbfounded, because Lu Fan was supposed to be under the effect of the Rigid Skill and unable to move.

In the moment Jiang Fengyun was stunned, Lu Fan had already made his move after dodging the attack, He grabbed the back of Jiang Fengyun’s collar. Exerting some force, he slammed Jiang Fengyun down onto the ground.

With a *thud*, Jiang Fengyun was slammed to the ground, sprawled in an embarrassing position like a Dog eating shit.

This scene immediately caused everyone to gasp.

Just as Jiang Fengyun was about to get up from the ground, an enormous force pushed his head down again.

Lu Fan stepped on Jiang Fengyun’s head with one foot, wearing a harmless smile on his face, as he said. “First place in the freshmen exam, is this all you’ve got? The value of your first place seems pretty low.”

Hearing Lu Fan’s mocking voice and his head being firmly stepped on by Lu Fan, Jiang Fengyun felt both ashamed and livid. He felt like his chest was about to explode with rage. He immediately activated his Skill, turning into a shadow and escaping from under Lu Fan’s foot. This at least gave him a chance to retreat back.

Although he had retreated, Jiang Fengyun was still in a sorry state. He turned his head to glare angrily at Xu Jing, scolding. “Xu Jing, what’s wrong with you, how did your Skill fail!?”

Xu Jing was also confused and said, “That’s impossible, I already cast the Skill on him…”

Jiang Fengyun angrily interrupted Xu Jing. “If it was cast on him, how could he still move? If it wasn’t for my Profession Characteristics, I would have lost already!”

“Well…” Xu Jing did not know what was going on for a moment, so he naturally did not know how to refute.

Lu Fan, seeing the two about to argue, smiled and said. “Don’t blame him, I can prove that his Skill has been casted on me. It is just that my Debuff Resistance is a bit higher. So, any of such Debuffs are ineffective against me.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was once again in uproar. If all Debuffs were ineffective against Lu Fan, did this not mean that Support Specialised Professions like Xu Jing, who weakened their opponents’ abilities, were useless against Lu Fan?

No wonder Lu Fan dared to come alone to challenge Jiang Fengyun and Xu Jing. It turned out that Xu Jing’s Profession Characteristics were completely countered by Lu Fan.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that today’s sparring was a 1v1 between Lu Fan and Jiang Fengyun.

Xu Jing did not believe him and consecutively casted several more Skills on Lu Fan.

The result was predictable – none of them had any effect.

This scene reminded him of the previous battle between two Dragons, where the Little Princess from Extremistis Country had also used Debuff Skills on Lu Fan, but Lu Fan was not affected by them at all.

Instantly, Xu Jing’s face turned extremely ugly. He turned to look at Jiang Fengyun and tremblingly said. “Brother Jiang, my Skills… they really don’t work on him…”

Jiang Fengyun’s face also turned pale, because this was obvious even without Xu Jing saying it. If they could not seal Lu Fan’s Skills, did this not mean Lu Fan could use Dragon Language Magic?

At the same time, Jiang Fengyun also had to find a way to face Lu Fan’s overwhelming Strength Attribute.

Even with ten times the courage, Jiang Fengyun dared not fight Lu Fan like this!

Just as Jiang Fengyun was thinking about how he could defeat Lu Fan, he suddenly thought of another question. [If Debuff Skills don’t work on him, does this not mean that if Lu Fan wanted to summon his Pet Dragon, we would not be able to stop him at all!?]
