Gradually, Li Feng became anxious. The price he offered wasn’t high compared to his peers. How could there be no one?
When the middle-aged man next to him saw this situation, he smiled again and said, “Little guy, do you think that just because you’re wearing the Elementary-Grade battle armor, there will be people joining your team? Do you know who those people who dare to lead the team are? The top students of Yude No. 1 High School are much more famous than you.”
“As for the others, they are all wily old foxes. They often lead people here to clear dungeons, so their reputations are also quite good. You are just a newbie, so how can others be at ease with you? First, you need to raise your own reputation before someone joins your team.”
“Oh, there’s such a thing?” Li Feng suddenly understood. It was no wonder no one came over after half a day. He humbly asked, “Big brother, is there any way to quickly increase your reputation?”
This was his first time bringing people to clear a dungeon and he really had no experience. He didn’t know how to do things in this industry at all. If it didn’t work, he could only borrow money from Yang Wei and the rest..
However, at that moment, Li Feng felt his stomach start growling again.
“There are many ways. Either you bring a few people to clear dungeons for free, or you invite some famous students to join you…” The middle-aged man saw that Li Feng’s attitude wasn’t bad and said a few more words.
However, Li Feng’s expression was bitter. The few methods that the middle-aged man had said could not be realized in a short time. Helpless, he could only look for Yang Wei and the rest.
“Oh, Li Feng, you’re actually here. Could it be that you’ve come to gain experience?” Suddenly, a surprised voice sounded.
Upon hearing a familiar voice, Li Feng looked up and found that it was Lin Ling’er and the others. This gave him a headache. A week ago, Lin Ling’er came to disturb him from playing games many times.
However, after being rejected time and time again, Lin Ling’er never appeared again. Thus, he never thought that he would run into her here. Furthermore, it seemed that she had come here with Jiang Sheng and the others to train. However, upon thinking about it, this was normal, because most of the third-year students were here to train.
When Xu Luo saw Li Feng, he sneered, “Eh? You’re not hiding at home playing games, but you dare to come out to gain experience? The sun really is rising from the west.”
Meanwhile, Jiang Sheng glanced at Li Feng and said casually, “He must have gotten a set of Elementary-Grade battle armor that allows him to be unafraid of the cat demons inside. That’s why he dared to come here to train.”
“You really are afraid of death. Even if you wear this set of armor, it won’t be of any use for you to gain experience!” Chen Dali said coldly.
“Training? This little guy is here to bring people to clear dungeons, not to train.” The middle-aged man beside him was baffled and interrupted them midway.
He knew Jiang Sheng too. After all, he was the number one person among the third-year students in Yude No. 3 High School. He didn’t expect Li Feng to know him either. Could it be that he was very famous? However, from what they said, Li Feng didn’t seem like much.
Meanwhile, Lin Ling’er and the others were stunned. They looked at Li Feng in disbelief. What kind of joke was this? This internet-addicted youth dared to bring people to clear dungeons?
Jiang Sheng even said, “Bringing people to clear dungeons? That can’t be. Li Feng, are you serious? If anything happens along the way, you’ll have to bear the responsibility.”
It wasn’t as if no one had done this in the past. A person wanted to scam people out of some money. Then, after bringing people into the dungeon, they slipped away. In the end, something happened, and the victim’s parents came looking for them. The officials of the Great Xia Kingdom were alerted, and they captured that swindler and sentenced them to more than ten years in prison.
“I’m confident.” Li Feng looked at them indifferently. In order to avoid being misunderstood, he still explained, “Previously, I was training inside the dungeon with Yang Wei and the others. Thus, I’m rather familiar with this dungeon.”
Xu Lu laughed coldly and said, “You’re talking about all of you wearing the Elementary-Grade battle armor, right? Other people don’t have such battle armor to protect themselves. By doing this, you’re simply trying to kill people for money. I originally thought that you were addicted to games, but I didn’t expect you to do something like this now. It’s really despicable.”
“I…”
Li Feng wanted to explain, but after thinking about it, it seemed like everything he said would be meaningless. This was because in school, he always had the image of an internet-addicted youth. Other than Yang Wei and a few others, no one seemed to know his true strength. Now, he felt like he had shot himself in the foot.
When he thought about this, Li Feng felt even more depressed. He really didn’t look at the almanac when he went out today. All the unlucky things had happened together.
“Are you short of money?” Lin Ling’er suddenly asked. She was the only one here who was familiar with Li Feng. In her heart, people like Li Feng would only do this if they were short of money.
“That’s right.” Li Feng nodded and did not deny it.
Lin Ling’er frowned. After all, she was also part of the reason for Li Feng’s current state. “I can lend you money.”
“It’s fine.”
Li Feng shook his head. He didn’t want to owe Lin Ling’er a favor. Then, he thought about how the others didn’t trust his strength, so he said, “How about this? I’ll form a team with you first and help you clear a dungeon. If you think it’s okay, then give me money.”
He felt that it was necessary to let this young girl before him witness his strength so that she would not bother him in the future.
However, these words made Jiang Sheng’s expression turn cold. He said, “Li Feng, don’t you think that what you’re doing is very shameless? Although a part of the reason why you’ve fallen is because you can’t take the blow, wanting to use this to force Junior Sister Ling’er to give you money doesn’t seem right!”
Xu Luo mocked, “I’ve truly underestimated your thick skin.”
“Li Feng, do you think I don’t dare to teach you a lesson?” Chen Dali couldn’t help but ask.
Li Feng was helpless. If he told the truth, no one would believe him. Thus, he wanted to use his actions to prove himself, but they mistook him for a liar.
“Alright, I’ll enter the dungeon with you, but I’ll only help you this once.” Lin Ling’er’s expression wasn’t too good either. She had wanted to help Li Feng before because she wanted to make up for her past mistakes. Now, she had made up her mind. After helping him this time, she would have nothing to do with him anymore.
“Junior Sister Ling’er, there’s no need to do this.” Jiang Sheng and the others wanted to stop Lin Ling’er, but she had already made up her mind.
In the end, Xu Luo could only threaten, “Li Feng, you better ensure Junior Sister Lin Ling’er’s safety. Otherwise, we won’t let you off.”
“Alright!” Li Feng couldn’t be bothered with them. After forming a team with Lin Ling’er, he went straight to the dungeon.
Jiang Sheng’s face turned pale. He gritted his teeth so hard that he almost broke them. Then, he roared in his heart, “You bastard, I will teach you a lesson sooner or later.”
…
Li Feng and Lin Ling’er passed through the ancient gate. The power of space distorted, and the two of them appeared in the Gloomy Cat Forest.
Li Feng didn’t know if it was because of his bad luck, but he didn’t see any other students around him. However, even if there were other students, if he didn’t know them, they would rarely help each other.
“Li Feng, you’ve already been delayed for a year. Right now, there’s basically no hope of you passing the entrance exam. However, your performance in the Summer Dungeon Hunt was quite good. You have a good resume that can find you an easy logistics job. Don’t go astray,” said Lin Ling’er as she walked through the Gloomy Cat Forest.
“You don’t have to worry about that.” Li Feng said casually, “I’ll bring people to clear dungeons. I’ll treat everyone fairly. In the meantime, I’ll catch a cat demon later and let you train with it.”
Meanwhile, He started pondering in his heart. Later on, he should use Flash Arrow to break the leg of a cat demon. However, this way, the strength of the cat demon would be reduced. He did not know if it could still be used for training.
If it was useless, wouldn’t it ruin his reputation?
