Chapter 4: The Most Rubbish Hidden Profession?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Swish!
At the same time, a loud noise suddenly came from the platform.
Everyone looked up and saw that the table in front of the president had turned into a pile of debris, and he himself shot out like a bullet.
But in an instant, the president appeared in front of Ye Xuan, who had just completed his class awakening. The president's face turned red with excitement, and his eyes stared fixedly at Ye Xuan.
"Ye Xuan, what profession did you awaken?"
"Is it the Dragon Mage? Or the Dragon Warrior?"
As he spoke, the president grabbed Ye Xuan's shoulders, his whole body filled with excitement.
However, Ye Xuan felt a bit miserable, as he felt a tremendous force pressing on his shoulders, almost crushing his bones.
"Pr… president, it hurts… so much…"
Ye Xuan called out in pain.
"Oh… Ah… I'm sorry, I got too excited!"
The president realized his actions upon hearing this and immediately felt a bit embarrassed. He quickly released his hands.
Ye Xuan rubbed his shoulders slightly and bowed respectfully to the president, smiling.
"The hidden profession I awakened is the Dragon Tamer!"
"???"
The president's face was filled with confusion upon hearing this.
Seeing this scene, everyone fell into silence.
Dragon Tamer?
What kind of hidden profession was this? Could it be able to control dragons?
Even the knowledgeable president was dumbfounded. He had never heard of such a hidden class before.
But regardless, it was at least a hidden profession within the combat professions.
However, compared to the doubts of the others, Ye Xuan felt relatively relieved.
Because at the moment he awakened his profession, he already had relevant information in his mind.
Immediately, he explained his related profession abilities.
The guesses of the others were not far off. The Dragon Tamer was an evolved version of the Beast Tamer.
Beast Tamers could only form contracts with ordinary monsters, but Dragon Tamers could form contracts with incredibly powerful dragons.
Of course, low-level sub-dragon monsters could also be contracted.
For a moment, the president's eyes flickered, and he seemed to have some speculation. He nervously spoke.
"You mean… your profession can only form contracts with dragons, or perhaps sub-dragon monsters, and not with other monsters?"
"That's right!" Ye Xuan nodded.
There was a strict requirement on a Dragon Tamer's contracted partners that they must possess pure dragon bloodline.
Apart from powerful dragons, only the sub-dragon monsters had relatively pure bloodlines. Even some common earth dragonkin monsters were unable to form contracts with Dragon Tamers due to the dilution of dragon bloodlines within their bodies.
As soon as he said so, the president's expression turned as if he had eaten sh*t.
His previously excited mood was instantly dampened, and his eyes were filled with endless disappointment.
It wasn't just the president; everyone around, after learning that Ye Xuan had awakened as a Dragon Tamer, had similar expressions.
"Hehe! The name 'Dragon Tamer' does sound impressive, but it's a pity… What a shame…"
"In the secret realms explored by the human race, even the common sub-dragon and earth dragon monsters possess strength equivalent to the Awakened who have already had the Third or even Fourth Awakening, let alone the legendary dragon clan, right?"
"In that case, isn't the Dragon Tamer profession useless? How can a mere first-awakening rookie capture and form contracts with dragon clan monsters?"
The Dragon Tamer seemed cool, being able to fully control dragons, but don't you have to form a contract with a dragon first?
And just now, Ye Xuan also mentioned that any monster with impure dragon bloodline will be rejected by the contract power during the formation of a contract.
In that case, wasn't this so-called hidden profession actually useless?
The president couldn't help but twitch his mouth at the thought, and his face immediately darkened.
However, considering the scarcity of hidden professions, he could only smile bitterly and lightly pat Ye Xuan's shoulder, trying to comfort him.
"Regardless, the fact remains that you awakened an unparalleled hidden profession, one that has never appeared in the history of the human race!"
"Although it may lack potential, it still holds some research value!"
Huh? An unparalleled hidden profession, but could it only be used as a specimen for research?
Many people in the crowd couldn't help but chuckle upon hearing this..
Dear President, you really know how to tell jokes!
In an instant, the excitement in the eyes of the crowd suddenly vanished. They shook their heads, filled with disappointment.
In contrast, Ye Xuan, as the person involved, remained calm as if he hadn't been affected at all.
"Has this guy gone crazy or has he been frightened into madness by the president's words? How come he doesn't seem to have any reaction?"
"In any case, unless he can suppress the power of the contract and forcefully form contracts with the thin-blooded flying dragons and earth dragons, this hidden profession is basically useless!"
"There may be some flying dragons in certain secret realms, but their numbers are scarce and their strength is quite formidable. It's practically impossible for him, a mere first-awakening rookie, to form contracts with them!"
"True! Unless this guy is lucky enough to form a contract with an earth dragon with the thinnest dragon bloodline, and its strength doesn't exceed the second awakening!"
"But there's really no need for that. High-level monsters possess unique inherent abilities. While flying dragons and earth dragons may seem to have dragon bloodlines, due to their thin dragon bloodline, they can't awaken the dragon clan's inherent abilities!"
"This guy is truly experiencing a rollercoaster ride of life!"
"It's only been a few minutes, and the ups and downs of his life are so thrilling! Look at him, could he have already gone mad?"
"Poor guy!"
"In less than a month, we will face the college entrance examination, and this guy, who can't form contracts with monsters as a Beast Tamer, how will he fight against the monsters in the secret realms? Isn't he doomed for failure?"
"I think forming a contract with an earth dragon would be more suitable. I have a mutated earth dragon dog at home with a trace of a thin dragon bloodline. If this guy is willing, I don't mind, hahaha…"
This was just adding insult to injury!
At this moment, the president left with a disappointed face, but before leaving, he earnestly advised Ye Xuan.
During the secret realm trial in the college entrance examination, if encountering powerful monsters, it was best to avoid them. If lucky, maybe he could even kill some low-level monsters and obtain some monster materials.
Ye Xuan nodded without saying much.
Suddenly, a mechanical voice resounded in Ye Xuan's mind.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully triggering a system mission!"
"Mission requirements: Obtain the first place in the city-level rankings and achieve the title "Top Scorer" of A-level or higher in the college entrance examination!"
(A-level, excellent, City-level Top Scorer; S-level, perfect, Provincial-level Top Scorer)
"Mission reward: Hidden…"
