123: Chapter 123 Are these young lads here to make fun of this old man?

According to Professor Hai Dawei's account, Zhang Jian slowly began to understand.

So that was it.

Although there were numerous Dungeons of various Ranks, vast as the stars.

However, the number of those that could trigger Hell-level difficulty was limited.

Only special defensive Dungeons like [Protect the Abandoned Factory], which had a relatively large range of monster Ranks, and some medium-sized or larger Dungeons with vast terrain, were eligible to trigger it.

Furthermore.

There was a limit to the number of times each person could trigger challenges for Dungeons at a fixed Rank.

Starting from Rank 25 Dungeons, there were two opportunities.

Rank 30 allowed 3 times.

Rank 35 allowed 4 times.

Afterward, it was basically a fixed number of times corresponding to the Rank.

From Rank 25 to Rank 99, among a total of 16 categories of Dungeons, each person could only trigger them a maximum of 100 times.

As one of the deputy directors of the admissions office for the Nine Supreme Academies, Professor Hai Dawei naturally possessed top-secret information not available to the outside world.

He didn't ask much, but quickly helped Zhang Jian check the 6 Rank 25 Dungeons located in Ta City from the Materials.

The data showed.

Among these, only two Dungeons possessed the basic difficulty required to trigger Hell-level.

One was [Protect the Abandoned Factory], located in the market, which they were currently challenging.

The other.

Was a medium-sized Dungeon with a maximum capacity of 10 people, [Wilderness Battlefield].

Located within the Professionals Association.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Jian was lost in thought.

If he wanted to trigger the second Dungeon, it seemed he would have to meet Li Zhihai.

However, he was no longer afraid of him now.

Even though there might still be a gap in strength between them, it wasn't as if they were about to fight to the death immediately.

The other party was just a mid-to-high-level official of the Tacheng Professionals Association.

Could he really cover the sky with one hand?

Zhang Jian wanted to give it a try.

To be safe, he consulted Ye Xun.

After learning that private fighting was strictly prohibited inside the Association and that there were dedicated restrictive Formations in place, Zhang Jian felt relieved.

Even if Li Zhihai wanted to target him, he couldn't make a move inside.

It wouldn't affect his Dungeon challenge.

In the afternoon, after eating at the market and resting for a while, feeling that his stamina had recovered, Zhang Jian immediately summoned the three and set off for the Professionals Association!

The Professionals Association, located in the center of Ta City, did not cover a very large area.

But, unusually, it wasn't a high-rise building, but a huge courtyard.

It was simply divided into several sections.

There were sections responsible for the certification and management of social candidates.

Warehouses for storing combat resources.

And several Teleportation Formations that could lead to major Dungeons inside and outside the city.

However, they were currently dim and not in use.

Zhang Jian skipped the places irrelevant to him and went straight to the backyard.

The entrance to the only medium-sized Dungeon in Ta City.

Before coming, he had already submitted an application from his personal terminal.

Two responsible personnel came to handle the reception.

However, they were stunned when they saw there were only four of them.

"Where are your other teammates?"

Zhang Jian shook his head, "Just the four of us."

The middle-aged man in the lead looked displeased.

"Little student, are you joking with me?"

"This is a medium-sized Dungeon; the terrain inside is five times that of a normal map, and the number of monsters is three times that of a normal Dungeon."

"How is you four going in any different from sheep walking into a tiger's den?"

"Hurry back."

Wang Fei was anxious.

"Hey big brother, you can't look down on people."

"Isn't it just a few more monsters? That's exactly why we came here."

The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes.

"Judging by your tone, you seem very confident."

"What Rank are you, and what is your Professional class?"

Among the four, Zhang Jian looked delicate and young.

He was still unsure.

This little fatty didn't look like he was just young; his actual strength should be decent.

Wang Fei said proudly.

"Rank 14 top-tier Professional!"

Wei Donglai and Yan Han also stepped forward, looking proud.

"+1."

"+1."

"+1 my ass!"

The middle-aged man was so angry he laughed, blurting out a curse.

After all that, were they really just a bunch of brats running here to make a fool of him?

He glanced at the badges on their chests and suddenly realized.

"You are the students who just finished the Professionals Unified Examination today, right?"

"Do you think that just because you got into a key Professional University, you're adults now and want to show off your presence?"

He said earnestly.

"Even if you are the best among your peers and can challenge Rank 15 or even Rank 20 Dungeons above your level."

"But this Dungeon of ours is different. Even 10 fully armed Rank 25 Professionals wouldn't dare say they could definitely clear the Hard difficulty."

"With your team composition, I'm afraid you won't even last 1 minute."

"Take my advice, don't waste your time here; go back and steadily improve your strength."

The other party's tone made Wei Donglai unable to suppress his fiery temper.

"What is wrong with you?"

"We are willing to challenge the Dungeon, just let us in; why so much nonsense?"

"How much is the ticket fee? We won't short you a single cent."

The middle-aged man was furious.

"Are you unable to understand human language?"

"I've already told you how difficult this Dungeon is; it's simply not a level you can touch."

"You are all young with bright futures; don't throw away your lives because of ignorance and arrogance!"

Although his words were harsh, they revealed a touch of concern.

The group found themselves unable to argue back.

Just as Zhang Jian was about to negotiate properly with the other party.

A sharp voice came over.

"Old Bai, what are you arguing about?"

The middle-aged man turned his head, as if he had seen a savior.

"Minister Li, it's good that you're here."

"These student kids don't know the immensity of heaven and earth and insist on challenging our Dungeon."

"I told them the difficulty isn't for them, and these little guys are even complaining about me."

"Minister, please judge this for me!"

Facing his expectant gaze, Li Zhihai, who had "just happened" to arrive from another courtyard, put on a stern face.

"Old Bai, this is where you are wrong."

"If young people want to be brave enough to try, we should give them more opportunities."

"If everyone were as timid as you, fearing wolves in front and tigers behind, how could true geniuses emerge?"

"If every Professional dares not strive, where is the future of humanity?"

Bai Yaru was rendered speechless by his words.

However, he was extremely puzzled in his heart.

What medicine did Minister Li take today? He was completely unlike this usually.

But even though the other party spoke high-sounding words, he did not forget his duty.

"Minister, you are right; I have been taught."

"But these little guys are too low-Rank, and there are too few of them. I'm afraid they will be in danger after going in!"

Bai Yaru said with concern.

Although in this type of battlefield Dungeon, one could avoid the danger of death as long as they exited the Dungeon in time, sometimes when encountering emergencies, if they couldn't operate in time, accidents could easily happen.

Moreover, this Dungeon couldn't activate safety protections.

He really couldn't bear that responsibility.

Did Minister Li really mean to consider these people, or did he have other intentions?

Bai Yaru was a bit confused.
