The Tycoon's Strength!

Lin Yu was already somewhat prepared when he heard the Tycoon's invitation, but he still showed a shocked expression on his face.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that he had prepared this "shocked" expression precisely for himself.

Moreover, the preparations were quite meticulous—this was not just a typical "shock," but rather "three parts doubt, three parts flattery, and four parts disbelief."

Anyone who saw the expression on Lin Yu's face at that moment would naturally assume that Lin Yu was experiencing such emotions.

Even Tycoon are no exception.

He looked at Lin Yu's expression with a hint of smugness.

"Don't rush to answer me, you can think about it!"

"Although our 'Jiang'an Society' is only a local organization, in Jiang City... I'm still confident that we're one of the top ones!"

"Moreover, you should have seen some of what's said about me on the forum... I'm capable of organizing the 'Jiang City Gathering' which is recognized by the forum, so I naturally have some strength—our 'Jiang'an Society' is also one of the cooperative organizations of 'Order'."

"In other words, within Jiang City's territory, our 'Jiang'an Society' can, to some extent, represent 'Order'!"

"That's what the Tycoon said smugly."

Looking at the Tycoon's smug expression, Lin Yu added a touch of longing and admiration to his own shock.

"That powerful? I saw on the forum that 'Order' is the most powerful organization! Those three organizations that were removed from the forum, people have to avoid 'Order' whenever they see it!"

As Lin Yu spoke, the Tycoon nodded calmly.

"That's right, so outside of the Game, as long as you're within Jiang City's territory, whether it's the 'Marauders,' the 'Freedom Alliance,' or even the 'Psychology Society,' if they want to harm you, I can protect you!"

"Of course, that's on the condition that you join our 'Jiang'an Society'!"

The Tycoon said earnestly.

Looking at the Tycoon's expression, Lin Yu's own "doubt" deepened.

"But according to you, wouldn't it be better for me to just join 'Order' directly?"

As he spoke, the Tycoon laughed.

"Do you think 'Order' has no entry requirements? Although this organization has a large number of members, the recruitment process is very strict... They not only examine your abilities but also your character! There are also many rules after you join!"

"If we compare the circle of 'Death game' Player to a martial arts world, then 'Order' is now the leader of the Righteous Path."

The Tycoon gestured with his hand as he spoke.

Although Lin Yu didn't know what he was gesturing, he still nodded.

"I understand, the people inside not only have to be strong, but also upright, right?"

As Lin Yu spoke, the Tycoon revealed a look of "this kid is teachable."

"That's right. Relatively speaking, although our Jiang'an Society also has rules, they are basically just basic ones like 'no killing in real life' and 'no betraying the organization'!"

Tycoon spoke, he looked at Lin Yu.

"Moreover, if a talented young person like you joins now, there are many benefits!"

The middle-aged man winked and said.

"Like a guide on 'Tier Advancement'? But I don't need that right now."

Lin Yu said casually.

Lin Yu knew that this statement was a lie, and he probably wouldn't need to use it in the future.

The Tycoon just said...

The "experience guides" from various organizations are all based on summaries of tasks performed by people in the same Profession.

But...

Lin Yu knew that he had obtained the Unique Profession "Fraudster"!

Where can I find references for "Unique Profession"?

What's more, I'm especially special—the "Rank Advancement Trial" unlocks on the third Instance, and judging from what the Tycoon said...

This was probably something he had never heard of before.

Therefore, these "Tier Advancement" "strategies" are essentially unnecessary for Lin Yu.

The Tycoon laughed upon hearing Lin Yu's words.

"That's why I said, why are you in such a hurry to make a decision...? Let's see after we've done a few more Instance!"

"You'll see when the time comes, it's really great to have an organization!"

The Tycoon stopped there.

Lin Yu nodded, interrupting him.

"Thank you for your kind offer, Tycoon, I'll think about it!"

The Tycoon was a discerning man; upon hearing Lin Yu's words, he knew that Lin Yu was somewhat uninterested.

"I was a bit presumptuous. You seem to think highly of yourself and probably want to join some big organization," the Tycoon sighed. "However, local organizations like ours have their advantages, and I'm not exactly weak either—haven't you seen the 'Bounty' section on the forum?"

I asked Tycoon replied.

Lin Yu nodded. "Although I was indeed tempted by the money from bounties, I never understood what 'Tier Advancement' meant, nor did I know how strong other Player were, so I didn't look into it to avoid becoming envious."

Lin Yu paused for a moment, then said, "Now that I know, I'm even less interested in watching... After all, you said it yourself, there's a qualitative difference between Player who haven't Tier Advancement and those who have."

Lin Yu was telling the truth.

He wanted to make money, but he wasn't in a rush.

It's acceptable to take some risks, but those risks shouldn't be too great.

The Tycoon smiled.

"Let's take a look. This forum section name really needs to be changed... It's supposed to be a bounty, but now it also has a 'ranking' function!"

"Initially, some busybodies tallied the total number of 'Credit Points' on the bounty-sent Transcendents and created a table. Then someone joked, 'Why doesn't the forum have a feature to assess the strength of high-level Player?'"

"And they actually made the forum! They created a Rankings for the top 100!"

"Although there was a lot of controversy at the beginning, and people didn't know how the ranking was determined, this 'ranking' function has been around for more than half a year, and through various events... it has become quite popular!"

"The ranking error should be within three to five places!"

"Of course—those who make the list and have forum accounts can choose to remain anonymous."

Tycoon spoke, Lin Yu finally understood.

"It sounds like you're on that list."

The Tycoon laughed.

"Look at this!"

Lin Yu took out his phone and opened the forum.

He then opened the "Bounties" section and found a pinned post titled "Player Ranking (Real-time Updates)".

The poster is an official account of the forum.

After Lin Yu clicked on it, names and their affiliated organizations appeared on the black-background forum.

First place, "General," organization "Order"!

Second place, "The Diviner," from the organization "The Marauders"!

Third place, "Grandmaster," organization "Order"!

Fourth place, anonymous Player.

Lin Yu scrolled down and didn't find Tycoon in the top ten.

He scrolled down rapidly, the page scrolling quickly.

The Tycoon glanced furtively at the screen and, seeing the text scrolling, quickly spoke up.

"Hey, hey, it's over! It's over!"

Upon hearing the Tycoon's words, Lin Yu flipped back through the pages again.

He quickly found the Tycoon.

The twenty-seventh person, a "Tycoon," organized the "Jiang'an Society"!

Lin Yu was slightly shocked.

"Wow, you're ranked twenty-seventh out of all the Player?"

Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, the Tycoon waved his hand humbly.

"This applies to Player nationwide... players on foreign servers aren't even included in the forum rankings!"
