Chapter 1008, Accusations of Cheating

This meant that at the current time, all the Monsters in the Dungeon Instance should have already appeared, and all obtainable points should have already been obtained.

 

The later stages of this Dungeon Instance became increasingly difficult. Not only did the internal temperature nearly match that of the Flaming Hell Dungeon Instance, but the number of Monsters was terrifyingly. They would appear endlessly.

 

To obtain all the points, it would only be possible for a Sixth Profession Player, like the Ancestor of their Situ Family.

 

For ordinary Fifth Profession Players, obtaining a perfect score was just a pipe dream.

 

Even a full team of Fifth Profession Players could not possibly achieve it.

 

Yet, after so long, two people had yet to emerge. This was far too strange.

 

Either they had long since died inside the Dungeon Instance, or they had truly discovered some kind of bug in the Dungeon Instance and were using it to survive inside for an extended period.

 

As for whether they had actually killed Monsters and obtained points, that was uncertain and would require waiting for them to emerge and checking the point rankings to confirm.

 

However, the former was certainly impossible.

 

Because this Dungeon Instance was extremely dangerous, the Situ Family had long since implemented safeguard measures.

 

Once someone perished inside, the Dungeon Instance’s life-saving measures would activate, forcibly transporting the person out.

 

Earlier, several people had emerged in extremely dishevelled states. It was precisely because they had encountered danger in the Dungeon Instance. They had not voluntarily withdrawn but had been passively transported out.

 

Therefore, these two people should not have died inside.

 

The only explanation was that this artificially created Dungeon Instance truly did have flaws in its design. And this flaw had been exploited by them.

 

If this were truly the case, then Situ Xiong, who had confidently asserted earlier that the Dungeon Instance had no problems, would undoubtedly have been severely slapped in the face.

 

As for Lu Fan and Ye Wuxian genuinely relying on their own strength to fight through to the very end of the Dungeon Instance, Situ Xiong himself did not believe it to be possible.

 

After all, he had already learned from Situ Qianqian that these two people merely came from a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family and were very young. Them being Fifth Profession Players would be their absolute limit.

 

Even if the two of them formed a team, with that level of strength, and not coming from a Supreme Tier Ancient Noble Family with deep foundations, how could they possibly surpass so many Fifth Profession Players from Supreme Tier Ancient Noble Families?

 

For a moment, Situ Xiong was also bewildered.

 

Just as Situ Xiong was pondering how all this could have happened, the Transport Array suddenly lit up again.

 

This time, Lu Fan and Ye Wuxian emerged.

 

Under everyone’s gaze, the two appeared calm and composed, with not even a speck of dirt on their bodies, let alone a single drop of sweat.

 

With such an appearance, did they truly emerge from the same Dungeon Instance as the others?

 

The person who had spoken earlier finally could not restrain himself. “Deputy Patriarch. What do you have to say now? These two don’t look at all like they’ve experienced a fierce battle. Surely, you’re not going to say the environment and Monsters in the Dungeon Instance posed no difficulty for them whatsoever, which is why they Cleared it so easily and are only emerging now? The only explanation is that these two people found an exploit in the Dungeon Instance!”

 

Though the others did not voice their agreement, their expressions showed they endorsed this person’s words.

 

Situ Xiong’s face also became difficult to read, uncertain how to respond.

 

However, Lu Fan, upon emerging and immediately hearing someone’s sarcastic remarks, looked around at everyone with confusion, not knowing what exactly had happened.

 

[Wait. Was this Dungeon Instance that difficult? Why would it require us to look dishevelled?]

 

[What a joke. Throughout the entire process, we sat on ice walls, chatting and drinking tea, letting Xiao Ye single-handedly handle all the Monsters. How could we possibly look like we had experienced a fierce battle?]

 

Lu Fan could not be bothered to waste words explaining to these people. After emerging, he moved to the side to wait for the Situ Family to announce the results.

 

Situ Xiong secretly gave a subordinate at his side a meaningful look. The subordinate understood, altering the Array’s composition slightly.

 

Immediately, the Transport Array closed, and a light screen appeared displaying a ranking of personnel and points.

 

Among them, Lu Fan and Ye Wuxian’s names prominently occupied the top two positions.

 

Moreover, each of their point totals was five hundred thousand.

 

When this number appeared, everyone erupted into an uproar.

 

The Situ Family members were even more dumbfounded. They were all frozen in place.

 

Because they knew clearly in their hearts that this Dungeon Instance’s maximum point value was one million.

 

For the two of them to each obtain five hundred thousand meant that the two had completely collected all one million points, then split the points evenly!

 

How was this possible!? Throughout the entire Situ Family, only their Sixth Profession Ancestor could manage to obtain a perfect score in this Dungeon Instance!

 

How could two youths so casually, without even breaking a sweat or reddening their faces, obtain a perfect score!?

 

Below Lu Fan and Ye Wuxian’s names was Kong Lingqi, possessing two hundred and seventy thousand points. It was less than half of Lu Fan and Ye Wuxian’s total.

 

Zhao Lingfeng, who had previously believed she had secured a spot on the list, had suddenly become seventh place, missing out on a slot.

 

This immediately enraged Zhao Lingfeng, who spoke up at once. “There must be a huge problem in the rankings! The top two obtained five hundred thousand points each, which means they collected a total of one million points, no? Your Situ Family’s Dungeon Instance should have a max of one million points, right? How are two unknown nobodies from a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family able to get a perfect score!?”

 

With Zhao Lingfeng acting as their mouthpiece, the others naturally did not miss the opportunity to join the commotion, all questioning the Situ Family.

 

Among them, the most aggressive were those from the Family of the person ranked sixth, who along with Zhao Lingfeng, had been pushed out of the top five.

 

Seeing the situation growing chaotic, Situ Xiong quickly raised his hands, signalling everyone to quiet down.

 

After the scene had quieted somewhat, Situ Xiong spoke. “Logically speaking, our Situ Family’s Dungeon Instance has undergone multiple tests and shouldn’t have any exploits. But, this score is indeed somewhat strange. Everyone please wait while I make a few inquiries first.”

 

After speaking, Situ Xiong approached Lu Fan and Ye Wuxian, and after cupping his fists politely, he asked. “You two have obtained first and second place in the rankings. May I ask whether our Situ Family’s Dungeon Instance has some kind of exploit?”

 

By this point, Lu Fan had basically understood what these people were arguing about.

 

To simply put it, they lacked enough insight and assumed he had cheated,

 

But he had conducted himself properly and sat righteously. After all, there was nothing to fear. He did nothing wrong.

 

“There wasn’t.” Lu Fan replied. “This Dungeon Instance has no exploits. The reason we could get a perfect score is because we killed all the Monsters inside.”
