Song Xiaoya was the first to jump onto the stage.
Facing Jiang Zhenbei head-on.
Jiang Zhenbei looked at Song Xiaoya, then turned his gaze to Lu Ran, who was still enjoying the spectacle with the rest of the class.
He pondered, "Lu Ran, you co up first."
Lu Ran originally wanted to sit back and watch how these four would perish in place.
But in the end.
Jiang Zhenbei pulled him out.
No choice, Lu Ran could only get up and make his way to the stage.
But at the sa ti, Liu Haitao, Zhu Xudong, and Deng Zhijie also followed onto the stage.
The atmosphere imdiately turned a bit strange.
The crowd below whispered among themselves.
"There sure are a lot of people signing up this ti."
"These four guys all have rare professions, and they’re pretty good among rare professions."
"It’s a pity the only hidden profession, Qin Wuyao, didn’t sign up. I wonder why."
"If Qin Wuyao had signed up, would these people even matter?"
"But this Lu Ran, why did the academy choose him?"
"He’s got a high level, and it’s said he has connections."
"No doubt, he doesn’t even need to show up for morning etings. His level’s rising so fast, there’s definitely soone powerful behind him."
"These days, it’s all about connections."
...
For a mont, there was all sorts of talk.
Lu Ran stood on the stage, lazily staring at the four opposite him.
"Xiaoya, I know you’re eager to participate in this Hundred Cities League, but the slot is decided by the academy’s deliberation, individuals can’t interfere," Jiang Zhenbei said.
At the sa ti.
His eyes also swept over to the other three.
The aning was clear, the words were not only directed at Song Xiaoya, but also to clarify for the three of them.
How the academy decides is not for you to ddle in!
But as soon as Jiang Zhenbei finished speaking, the four couldn’t hold it in.
"I disagree! Why can Lu Ran be chosen?"
"Although our levels are low, in this world, profession is primary. Lu Ran’s level is high because soone behind him helped him level up!"
"Is the academy also deciding because of Lu Ran’s connections?"
"This doesn’t convince us, just a re Undead Mage, he shouldn’t be chosen!"
...
As soon as these words ca out.
Jiang Zhenbei’s brows furrowed imdiately.
Calmly said, "You’d better be careful with your words, the academy will not change its decision for any connections. Choosing Lu Ran is partly because Lu Ran’s ability is strong enough, but more importantly, his backing guild holds significant influence, you should know, when deciding on the Hundred Cities League slots, the backing guild plays a big role."
As soon as Jiang Zhenbei finished speaking.
A voice erged from the crowd: "Dean Jiang ans our Unrivaled Dominator has no influence?"
After speaking.
A muscular man, flaunting, walked onto the stage.
The students below all widened their eyes.
"Soone from Unrivaled Dominator?"
"I’ve heard Liu Haitao is a prospective mber of Unrivaled Dominator."
"Unrivaled Dominator, although a second-rate guild, its overall strength is already infinitely close to that of a first-rate guild!"
"Does Dean Jiang even dare to not give face to Unrivaled Dominator?"
"Is Lu Ran’s backing really that powerful? Can’t be, right?"
...
As the academy’s dean, Jiang Zhenbei, in front of these large guild mbers, it’s hard to say who ranks higher.
But at the mont.
Fully aware of Lu Ran’s backing power, Jiang Zhenbei could not give an inch.
So he calmly responded, "That’s what I an, Unrivaled Dominator has no influence, I think this is very clear, after all, in the students’ application materials, the affiliated prospective guilds are clearly marked."
Implicitly.
The academy didn’t overlook Unrivaled Dominator, nor did Jiang Zhenbei.
But even having seen it, they still didn’t choose you.
Isn’t that enough to illustrate the problem?
The muscular man imdiately furrowed his brows and said in a deep voice, "So your academy is just this nonsensical, I must have been blind."
Followed by.
Before Jiang Zhenbei responded.
Three others also stepped onto the stage.
They all chid in:
"By this logic, my Hero of the Chaotic World is also dismissed by your noble academy?"
"And my Wind and Cloud Rises Again, is no longer deciding on the Hundred Cities League slots either?"
"Our Yagod℡ Family does not accept this!"
"But we will not let you ignore us, and stir trouble; if you really choose Lu Ran, the Undead Mage, we will make your academy regret it."
"We will unite to sanction Black Fire City Academy, anwhile, will the supposed guild behind Lu Ran dare to confront us four combined?"
...
Jiang Zhenbei listened to their words.
The corners of his mouth twitched.
"I advise you to think twice." Jiang Zhenbei’s words exhausted all he could say.
These four are simply courting death!
But this nonchalant attitude only made them more enraged.
"What? Still looking down on us? Fine, the four of us will join forces, and challenge the guild behind Lu Ran! Ask for us, Dean Jiang, if that guild dares to accept!"
The four looked at Jiang Zhenbei arrogantly.
Instead, Jiang Zhenbei was very puzzled.
These four, no matter their positions in their respective guilds, shouldn’t be guild leaders.
But they shouldn’t be so brainless either.
Your four guilds, including each prospective mber, ultimately weren’t selected by the academy.
Instead, they chose Lu Ran, with the conventional Undead Mage profession, isn’t that enough to explain the problem?
Don’t you have any insight?
And you’re challenging them directly?
Representing your backing guilds?
Can you take responsibility for what you’re saying?
Can you compete with those behind Lu Ran?
At this mont.
One of them even emphasized, "We really don’t want this slot for the Hundred Cities League, but this guild challenge must be accepted!"
Oh, still putting on airs?
But when he said this.
Song Xiaoya and the others’ minds buzzed.
"No way! We can’t give up!"
"We... we must get a slot, as long as it’s any one of us four!"
"Lu Ran absolutely can’t get the slot!"
"Otherwise, we’ll... we’ll die!"
...
Huh?
Will die?
Jiang Zhenbei and the others from the guild were dumbfounded.
"What do you an? Not being selected ans death?" soone asked.
"Before the eting, we signed a contract bet with Lu Ran. If Lu Ran gets the slot, we must die. Conversely, if any of us gets the slot, Lu Ran must die." Song Xiaoya took out the contract, looking pale, and said.
Jiang Zhenbei hurriedly took one of the papers to scrutinize.
After reading.
He was sowhat astonished, "This is simply nonsense! Can such a thing be signed casually? Once the contract is in place, it cannot be canceled, even by the victor! Before signing, didn’t you know that once signed, either you or Lu Ran must die?"
And Lu Ran, impossible to die, the state doesn’t allow it!
The ones to die, can only be you four!
