Undead Mage with No Skill Cooldown

"I'll say it. Principal Jiang wanted to talk about the Hundred Cities League, right?" Yu Qingcang glanced at Jiang Zhenbei and said.

"Yes, yes, that's exactly what I meant." Jiang Zhenbei rubbed his hands and said.

Then he glanced at Lu Ran.

He continued, "With the new students awakening this year, overall, it's not looking great. If we need to pick someone as a participant in the Hundred Cities League, Qin Wuyao would be more suitable due to their hidden profession. Although Classmate Lu has a high level, they are an Undead Mage, so I'm just touching base to see if Classmate Lu has any thoughts on this."

Upon hearing this.

Yu Qingcang and the others immediately understood Jiang Zhenbei's intention.

They could also understand it.

After all, Lu Ran is just an Undead Mage.

Although the level is high, leveling speed doesn't mean much; anyone can level up as long as they train.

The important thing is the strength of one's profession.

The reason they came to find Lu Ran was, more than anything, to see Lu Ran's opinion due to the guild leaders backing him.

However, what Jiang Zhenbei didn't expect was.

When he came to find Lu Ran, all four guild leaders were there!

"We don't need anyone else, Lu Ran will do," Yu Qingcang immediately said.

"Alright, alright, very well, then I'll submit Lu Ran's nomination to the Imperial Capital," Jiang Zhenbei immediately said.

As for other candidates, there are none!

Yu Qingcang spoke, and even if we lose, it must be Lu Ran!

At this moment.

Lu Ran spoke up from the side, "I do know about this thing. When I was in the lower grades, watching the elder students participate in the Hundred Cities League wasn't a secret, just don't know the specific details. Are there any conditions for this?"

"There are conditions, but they are not significant conditions," Jiang Zhenbei said. "The only condition is that the participating members must be preparatory members of a guild, which is very simple. Even being a preparatory member of a small guild qualifies."

That's pretty much like not having any conditions.

As long as the person selected by the academy, just have any guild make them a preparatory member pro forma.

"I see, is there any point in participating in this Hundred Cities League?" Lu Ran turned to look at the guild leaders.

He himself has no interest in ranking in competitions like this.

After all, in his mind.

Level and equipment are far more important, maybe even below equipment, as level is the priority.

As for equipment.

After acquiring two Sacred Artifact-level items, Lu Ran's expectations for equipment have risen.

Common levelless epics, unless they have specific effects or skills, don't attract Lu Ran!

"It's necessary," Yu Qingcang nodded without hesitation.

The other three guild leaders also nodded.

Liu Xinxin said, "I almost forgot about the Hundred Cities League. This league is something that newly awakened professionals participate in; each major city's academy chooses a member to participate in the Hundred Cities League. The nation rewards based on rank, also rewarding the academy and the city itself with resources. It's a nationwide spectacle, and most importantly, the rewards are decided by the top national leaders, and the championship rewards are richly bountiful!"

Oh?

Lu Ran's eyes lit up.

"Yes, even the Four Major Guilds cannot interfere, and even the Full-time Alliance is unaware of the rewards, which are entirely decided by the highest level leadership. Every edition of the rewards is astonishingly generous!" Ye Hongyi added.

Lu Ran's heart was stirred.

Able to make several guild leaders consider the rewards immensely generous, though they're mysterious rewards and unknown, their abundance is undeniable.

"Alright, in that case, I'll join. When the time comes to receive the rewards, I'm curious to see what the state can offer," Lu Ran's curiosity was piqued.

Upon hearing this.

The four guild leaders nodded satisfactorily.

But Jiang Zhenbei's expression was rather peculiar.

He was feeling helpless and couldn't express it.

Qin Wuyao's growth was impressive, and they had a hidden profession, strong in solo fights!

Although Lu Ran was at a high level, he was still just an Undead Mage!

How does having strong backers mean anything?

Even in a duel with Qin Wuyao, winning isn't certain!

And yet, they hope to gain the final championship reward?

If it wasn't for the fact that Lu Ran had four guild leaders backing him, and they were here right now, Jiang Zhenbei might have made a few sarcastic comments.

After all.

This also relates to the resource rewards for the academy and Black Fire City.

Having Lu Ran participate, the hope for the rewards seems dim.

But it shouldn't be too bad, considering Lu Ran's level is indeed high enough, some of the smaller city's academies have no worthy candidates, selecting regular professions that can't defeat Lu Ran.

"Well then, I'll head out. I'll report Lu Ran's nomination, and tomorrow morning, Lu Ran will go to the academy. After it's announced, you can head to the Imperial Capital. The day after tomorrow, the Hundred Cities League officially begins," Jiang Zhenbei instructed.

After explaining, Jiang Zhenbei left.

During the whole time, Nanami was looking at Lu Ran with a peculiar expression.

Once Jiang Zhenbei left.

Nanami suddenly asked, "Is Lu Ran a newly awakened student this year?"

"Yes," Lu Ran replied.

"But... weren't the newly awakened students this year from the batch twenty days ago?" Nanami continued to ask.

"Yes, that's the batch," Lu Ran nodded again.

"Uh..." Nanami was stunned on the spot.

She appeared dazed, but her heart was screaming; what kind of monster is this!

Twenty days?

Just twenty days!

A regular-profession Undead Mage who awakened only twenty days ago suppressed her in the Endless Tower!

Forced her to sacrifice her body and soul to reverse-contract Yamata no Orochi!

In the end, only for Lu Ran to kill Yamata no Orochi with a single skill!

Even revived Yamata no Orochi, bringing it under his command.

He also possesses Hades' Crystal Skull, Elf Wings, and a Sea-stabilizing Trident personally forged by the Dwarf Race!

Although backed by the Four Major Guilds of Longxia.

This doesn't relate to connections; this is Lu Ran's personal capacity as a monster!

She suddenly felt deflated and even thought about breaking away from Lu Ran, with even her desire to return to Japan starting to waver.

With such a person existing, Japan is a tiny place.

And being at odds with Longxia, once the national war is over and Lu Ran fully matures, Japan would likely be the first to face action!

Moreover, right now, there's no hope of breaking away from Lu Ran.

It's laughable.

If Nanami knew Lu Ran's true battle strength, such thoughts would likely become even more deeply entrenched!

"The Hundred Cities League lasts three days, and there are nine days left until the national war. Going to the Imperial Capital tomorrow, starting the day after, after the Hundred Cities League, only five days remain until the national war, and that's when you'll truly step onto the world stage," Liu Xinxin said to Lu Ran.

After speaking.

She looked towards Yu Qingcang.

And asked, "By the way, Qingcang, you mentioned earlier you had a few things for Lu Ran, what else was there?"
