Chapter 592 Monster Trainer Exam (12)

Back in the waiting room, the two examinees left were sitting on opposite sides of the room. One of them was looking at the screen on the wall while the other was glaring at the other person.

Standing beside Lin Fan was that guard that the Tamers Guild had sent who had also been staring at Lin Fan the entire time.

However, unlike Fei Jun, the gaze of this guard was more curious than furious.

After a while, the guard suddenly asked, "Young master Lin, can I ask you a question?"

Lin Fan didn't turn his head when he heard this and he wasn't surprised at all, rather he even expected this from the guard. Lin Fan just gave a nod and gave an "un" sound.

The guard didn't mind when he saw this as he asked, "How did you manage to tame that Berserk Bear just by punching it in the first round? I've never seen anything like that before."

Lin Fan wasn't as cold as before since he still needed them, but he didn't know what to say in response since it was something that he was certain that no one would have been able to reproduce.

It was the same skill that he had used on the Blue Star Planet, but this time it was also a bit different since he had obtained a few new skills. Namely, he was also using the golden energy he had received from those ruins.

He had wrapped his hand with the absorption force as normal, but then around that was a layer of the golden energy.

He knew that the golden energy was good for refining his body, so he had tested it with his own pets and the pets brought to his store to see if it could be used to refine their bodies as well. What he found was that it had the same effect as it did on him, but that was when he did it in moderation. Too much of the golden energy had actually hurt the beast that it was injected with.

The golden energy was very strong and if it was too much for the beast to handle, it would run wild in their bodies, causing injuries to them.

It was a good thing that Lin Fan had only increased the golden energy in moderation, otherwise it would have resulted in serious injuries for the beast. That wouldn't have been good in a normal situation, but this would have been exceptionally bad since it was someone else's pet that he was experimenting on.

Still minor injuries were something that Lin Fan could easily heal with a pill or two, so there were no problems at all.

The funny thing was that the golden energy had the same effect as the absorption power when used on beasts, which almost doubled the amount of pleasure they felt. It was one of the main reasons that made Lin Fan uncomfortable to use it.

Still, he wanted to make a big splash and there was no better way than to do this.

As for how to explain it…

After a slight pause, he said with a faint smile, "It's a secret technique, so it's not really something that I can tell others about."

The guard just said "oh" and nothing else since this was an unspoken rule between experts.

Everyone had their secrets and they were usually considered the bottom line of an expert. As long as there wasn't a life or death grudge between two people, there was no reason for an expert to ask about another expert's secret.

Not to mention that the Tamers Guild was trying to befriend Lin Fan, so he had his orders to keep him safe.

Which eliminated the other method of getting an expert's secret, when one side was much stronger than the other and they could make the owner of the secret disappear without anyone noticing.

By right, the Tamers Guid should have been able to do that to someone as unknown as Lin Fan, but the guard himself didn't feel confident in taking down Lin Fan. Even now, he could feel a sense of danger coming from him that he felt was ridiculous.

After all, Lin Fan was only in the low Embryo Soul Realm while he was in the low Child Soul Realm.

There was an entire major realm between them, how could he not take down Lin Fan?

But he really wasn't confident enough to say that he could.

Time passed just like this in the waiting room until the second half of the second exam was over.

The surprising thing was that unlike the first half, there was someone else who passed the second exam. This person was someone that no one recognized because he was dressed in a manner that encouraged people to not notice him.

However, judging by his physique and voice, he seemed to be a little boy.

This little boy had a large hat on his face that hid it, as well as a large cloak that completely covered his body. The way he was dressed and the way that he performed made it seem like he was very average.

After all, he had only barely passed by teaching his pet a low grade skill at the very last second.

However, when Lin Fan watched him, he could feel that there was something off about this person. He had even felt this way when he had been in the exam hall earlier.

He didn't know what it was, but he could feel a strange sensation from the technique that this cloaked person had used when he had been in the arena. The sensation that came from this cloaked person was different from every other person in the room, even though he was using the same technique.

Still, Lin Fan didn't have a reason to say anything just based on a feeling. Perhaps his technique was from an ancient inheritance, there wasn't anything wrong with that.

The cloaked figure didn't interact with either of them and just sat in a corner by himself, but under the cloak, his eyes were looking at Lin Fan with different intentions. He had felt Lin Fan watching him earlier, but that wasn't the reason he was looking at him now. It was all because the display that Lin Fan had given was just too shocking.

There was another ten minutes that passed before another staff member came in to bring them out again.

It was the same as last time, the staff member didn't say much as he brought them out, but this time they were lined up in front of the old man on stage.

As well, instead of having multiple stations, there was only a single stage that was in the center of the hall.

It seemed like whatever was happening involved all three of them at once.

The old man saw the three of them lined up in front of him and he gave a nod before saying, "For the final exam, you will be fighting against each other with the pets that you trained in the second exam. A Monster Trainer's real worth is the ability to bring out the power of their pet and the best way to measure this is in real battles. You will be facing each other in solo battles, but don't think that winning the battle is the only way you can win. Even if you lose the battle, as long as you can fully demonstrate the power of your pet, it will be considered a pass."

When he said this, Fei Jun's eyes twitched.

It was a blow to his ego when he heard these words because he thought that they were a dig at him.

If Lin Fan's exam results were true, he really was nothing compared to him, so this was just a way to comfort him by saying that he could still pass even if he couldn't compare.

As someone who had been treated like a genius his entire life, how could he take being looked down on in the slightest manner?

Of course, he was only filled with rage deep down as he forced himself to maintain a calm look.

He had resolved himself. He would show them all, he would tear down Lin Fan's image and show them that he was nothing compared to him!

The old man didn't notice any of this since it wasn't his intention to look down on Fei Jun. He was just running the exam as normal since those were the orders that he had received. He continued by saying, "You'll be drawing tickets to see who will be fighting who." Then after a pause, he added, "Of course, since there's an odd number of you, that means that one of you won't be fighting and will pass immediately."

All three of them revealed a surprised look when they heard this.

When the old man saw this, he revealed a sly smile and said, "Luck is also a part of one's skills. You can't do anything if you aren't lucky enough. So if you're lucky enough to draw the bye, it will be considered a pass."

In the end, none of them said a thing because there was nothing that they could say. These were the rules that were set by the Tamers Guild, so they could only accept it.

The old man called a staff member over before saying, "The one who will be drawing will decide everything, so it's considered quite the privilege to be the one chosen to make the draw."

After saying this, he deliberately left a long pause just to keep them in suspense.
