Undead Mage with No Skill Cooldown

Chapter 561: Chapter 554: Threatening Me?

At least it provided Lu Ran with some clues.

He stepped off the stage full of thoughts and sat back in his seat.

Immediately, his classmates gathered around him.

This situation had been quite common throughout his years at the academy.

After all.

Lu Ran was a genius with a spiritual power as high as 130.

Many people wanted to establish a good relationship with him before he awakened his profession.

But all failed, Lu Ran wasn’t a reclusive person, he just didn’t like making friends with irrelevant people.

Wang Yujiao was considered the only one who had a good relationship with him, but it ended dramatically at a crucial moment.

Aside from that.

Qin Wuyao was somewhat of a friend, just not very close.

Yet now, Qin Wuyao still maintained a feeling of unfamiliarity, but Lu Ran and Qin Wuyao were very familiar with each other!

Now.

Upon seeing Lu Ran’s profession awakening and it indeed being a hidden profession, countless classmates swarmed around again.

Still wanting to try and see if they could get closer to Lu Ran.

Especially those in ordinary, conventional professions.

If nothing unexpected happens, they’re set for life.

But if they could become friends with Lu Ran, their path would surely be one of great success!

Unfortunately.

Lu Ran wouldn’t give them a chance, he didn’t even have an interest in replying.

He couldn’t even be bothered to display basic politeness.

Because there really was no need.

After that, the awakening ceremony became boring because nothing unusual happened without Lu Ran’s involvement resulting in no hidden professions showing up.

Even rare professions, given a hidden profession had appeared, didn’t cause much of a stir.

Until Qin Wuyao stepped up.

It naturally followed that with the profession of Space Walker, Qin Wuyao became the third hidden profession of this awakening ceremony.

Upon knowing her profession, Qin Wuyao let out a huge sigh of relief.

Excitedly, she looked at Lu Ran for the first time.

This was a totally instinctive reaction, but unfortunately, Lu Ran, preoccupied, didn’t feel Qin Wuyao’s excitement.

After the awakening ceremony ended.

Qin Wuyao immediately went to find Lu Ran.

“Come with me,” Qin Wuyao said to Lu Ran.

“What for?” Lu Ran looked at Qin Wuyao, puzzled.

“You have a hidden profession, don’t forget what my father does. With his help, we can more easily join the Celestial Path Alliance, become preparatory members, and then start leveling up,” Qin Wuyao said to Lu Ran.

“I don’t feel like joining right now, let’s talk about it later,” Lu Ran said with a wave of his hand.

Qin Wuyao saw Lu Ran’s lack of interest.

She pondered, “Alright, I won’t go back yet either, how about we go out for a bit or go outside to fight some monsters?”

Lu Ran looked at Qin Wuyao, surprised.

Although Lu Ran was quite familiar with Qin Wuyao indeed.

From Qin Wuyao’s perspective now, their relationship wasn’t all that close.

Yet, Qin Wuyao’s behavior appeared exceptionally intimate at this moment.

It seemed Qin Wuyao noticed Lu Ran’s peculiar gaze.

She hurriedly said, “I just see you’re in a bad mood and was planning to take you out for some air, don’t overthink it.”

Lu Ran said with a wry smile, “I’m not in a bad mood, after all, having a hidden profession is something many dream of, I’m actually quite happy.”

“Eh, only a fool would believe that,” Qin Wuyao pouted.

“What, you know me so well?” Lu Ran looked at Qin Wuyao with a playful smile.

The latter blushed to the point her neck turned red, extremely embarrassed.

“Forget it, I won’t talk to you anymore, I’ll go back to find my dad first, your matter, we can discuss later,” Qin Wuyao said to Lu Ran.

After saying this, she ran off.

As if afraid that Lu Ran’s mouth would say something to tease her again.

But after a few steps, Qin Wuyao stopped again.

Turning back to Lu Ran, she said, “If you want to level up, wait for me, let’s do it together.”

“Alright,” Lu Ran agreed.

Leveling up?

That had absolutely no attraction for Lu Ran.

With a single thought, he could elevate his level to one hundred, even one thousand!

Similarly.

Life value, defense, equipment, even professions, Lu Ran could decide everything as he pleased.

“Damn, just feels suddenly really pointless, what’s going on.” Lu Ran said, speechless.

After gaining control of everything, truly everything seemed utterly dull.

And just at this moment.

Wang Yujiao appeared again.

She timidly approached Lu Ran.

Saying to Lu Ran, “Lu Ran, I was wrong, are you willing to give me a chance?”

Hmm?

Lu Ran looked at Wang Yujiao.

From his understanding of Wang Yujiao, their relationship had already reached such a point that Wang Yujiao shouldn’t be coming back to him.

But she did come.

Perhaps Lu Ran underestimated Wang Yujiao’s yearning for a good future.

“Anything you want?” Lu Ran asked.

“I really know I was wrong, could you forgive me just this once? I promise never to have a second thought again, I’ll treat you well,” Wang Yujiao said to Lu Ran, her tone already carrying a hint of pleading.

But Lu Ran just looked at Wang Yujiao coldly.

Shaking his head, he said, “Leave yourself some dignity, you should know my personality, that won’t work.”

Wang Yujiao opened her mouth.

Tried to say something more, but eventually remained quiet.

She shook her head, gave a bitter smile, said nothing more, not even uttering harsh words or mocking Lu Ran.

Instead, she turned away despondently and left.

Lu Ran smirked, planning to head back to his rented place first.

Wanting to fully research how to bring out that encrypted-name guy.

But at this moment.

Someone else blocked Lu Ran’s path.

“Damn, isn’t this annoying?” Lu Ran was exasperated.

Looking up.

He found the person standing in front of him was a guy named Zhang Pan.

Someone with whom he had never had any interaction.

But this Zhang Pan was usually quite arrogant in the academy.

Although not as extreme as Liang Shaoyu, his father, Thunderstorm Warrior Zhang Huaiyang’s presence allowed him to almost walk sideways at the academy.

Even Liang Shaoyu wouldn’t easily get into verbal spats with this guy.

If Liang Shaoyu’s arrogance relied on the Liang Family,

then Zhang Pan’s arrogance relied entirely on his father Zhang Huaiyang.

Everyone knew Zhang Huaiyang protected his kid, so no one dared provoke Zhang Pan.

“What do you want?” Lu Ran asked.

“Lu Ran, let’s be friends, your profession is good, let’s level up together,” Zhang Pan said directly.

It was quite straightforward.

He just wanted to befriend Lu Ran.

But the attitude was somewhat baffling.

“Not interested,” Lu Ran said offhandedly.

But Zhang Pan still wouldn’t move aside; instead, he raised his eyebrows at Lu Ran.

He said, “I don’t like the feeling of being rejected, you should know, even though you have a hidden profession, you need to grow to make it a hidden profession, if you wither halfway, then it’s as good as nothing.”

At this moment.

Lu Ran almost burst into laughter.

Is this… a threat?
