561: Threaten me?

At least this provided Lu Ran with a train of thought.

He walked off the stage full of thoughts and sat down in his seat.

The surrounding students immediately swarmed over.

Such situations were common throughout his years of academy life.

After all.

Lu Ran was a genius with a mental strength as high as 130.

Many people wanted to build a good relationship with Lu Ran before he awakened his class.

But they all failed. Lu Ran was not an unsociable person; he just didn't like making friends with irrelevant people.

Wang Yujiao was considered the only one who had managed to build a good relationship with Lu Ran, but it ended in a dramatic fashion at the very last critical moment.

Besides that.

Qin Wuyao counted as a friend, just not that close.

But now, Qin Wuyao was still maintaining the feeling that they weren't very close, yet Lu Ran and Qin Wuyao were actually very close!

Now.

Seeing that Lu Ran's class awakening had settled and it was indeed a hidden class, countless students swarmed over again.

They wanted to make one last attempt to see if they could get closer to Lu Ran.

Especially those with ordinary, conventional classes.

Without any surprises, their lives were already set.

But if they could have a chance to become friends with Lu Ran, their future life path would absolutely be prosperous!

Unfortunately.

Lu Ran would not give them a chance; he didn't even have the interest to reply.

He couldn't even be bothered to maintain basic politeness.

Because there really was no need.

The subsequent awakening ceremony was very boring, because Lu Ran no longer intervened, so no other hidden classes appeared.

Even for rare classes, given that a hidden class had already appeared, they couldn't stir up any waves.

Until Qin Wuyao went on stage.

Logically, the Space Walker class made Qin Wuyao the third hidden class of this awakening ceremony.

After learning her class, Qin Wuyao let out a heavy sigh of relief.

She excitedly looked at Lu Ran for the first time.

This was a completely instinctive reaction, but unfortunately, Lu Ran was preoccupied with his own thoughts and didn't sense Qin Wuyao's excited mood.

After the awakening ceremony ended.

Qin Wuyao came to find Lu Ran immediately.

"Let's go, come with me," Qin Wuyao said to Lu Ran.

"What for?" Lu Ran looked at Qin Wuyao with confusion.

"You're a hidden class, you know. Have you forgotten what my father does? With his help, we can join the Tiandao Alliance more smoothly, become probationary members of the Tiandao Alliance, and then we can start leveling up," Qin Wuyao said to Lu Ran.

"I don't want to join for now, let's talk about it later," Lu Ran said, waving his hand.

Qin Wuyao saw that Lu Ran was not very interested.

She pondered and said, "Alright then, I won't go back just yet either. Shall we go out for a walk? We could go to the wilderness and fight some monsters."

Lu Ran looked at Qin Wuyao in surprise.

Although Lu Ran was indeed very familiar with Qin Wuyao.

But from Qin Wuyao's perspective, their relationship wasn't that close.

Yet at this moment, Qin Wuyao's behavior seemed unusually intimate.

It seemed that Qin Wuyao noticed Lu Ran's strange gaze.

She hurriedly said, "I just saw that you were in a bad mood and intended to take you out to relax; don't overthink it."

Lu Ran said with a wry smile, "I'm not in a bad mood. After all, it's a hidden class, something many people dream of; I'm actually extremely happy right now."

"Tch, as if I'd believe you," Qin Wuyao pursed her lips.

"How so? Do you know me very well?" Lu Ran looked at Qin Wuyao with a playful smile on his lips.

The latter blushed to the roots of her ears on the spot, feeling extremely embarrassed.

"Forget it, I'm not talking to you anymore. I'm going back to find my dad first; we'll talk about your matters later," Qin Wuyao said to Lu Ran.

After finishing, she ran off.

As if she were afraid that Lu Ran would spit out something else to tease her.

But after running a few steps, Qin Wuyao stopped again.

She turned back and said to Lu Ran, "If you're going to level up, wait for me, okay? We'll go together."

"Alright," Lu Ran agreed.

Leveling up?

That held absolutely no appeal to Lu Ran.

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

Likewise.

Health points, defense, equipment, and even his class—Lu Ran could decide everything as he pleased.

"Damn, I just suddenly feel like it's all so pointless. What's going on?" Lu Ran said speechlessly.

After controlling everything, indeed, everything seemed too boring.

And just at this moment.

Wang Yujiao appeared again.

She timidly came up to Lu Ran.

She said to Lu Ran, "Lu Ran, I was wrong. Are you willing to give me a chance?"

Hmm?

Lu Ran looked at Wang Yujiao.

Based on Lu Ran's understanding of Wang Yujiao, they had already fallen out to that extent; Wang Yujiao shouldn't have come to find him.

Yet she still came.

Perhaps Lu Ran had underestimated Wang Yujiao's yearning for a good future life.

"Something up?" Lu Ran asked.

"I really know I was wrong. Can you forgive me just once? I will never have ulterior motives again in the future; I will treat you well," Wang Yujiao said to Lu Ran, her tone already carrying a hint of begging.

Lu Ran, however, just looked at Wang Yujiao with a cold gaze.

He shook his head and said, "Save yourself some dignity. You should also understand my personality and know that it's useless."

Wang Yujiao opened her mouth.

Wanting to say something more, but in the end, she shut her mouth.

She shook her head, smiled bitterly, said no more, and didn't even make any harsh threats or mock Lu Ran.

Instead, she turned around and left dejectedly.

Lu Ran pursed his lips, planning to go back to his rental apartment first.

He wanted to fully research how to root out that guy whose name was garbled text.

But just at this moment.

Someone else blocked Lu Ran's path again.

"Damn it, are you annoying or what?" Lu Ran's anger flared up.

He looked up.

And discovered that the person standing in front of him was a guy named Zhang Pan.

He had never had any interactions with Lu Ran.

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

Although not as exaggerated as Liang Shaoyu, because of his father, the Thunderstorm Warrior Zhang Huaiyang, he could almost walk sideways in the academy.

Even Liang Shaoyu wouldn't easily have any arguments with this guy.

If Liang Shaoyu's arrogance relied on the Liang Family.

Then this Zhang Pan's arrogance relied entirely on his father, Zhang Huaiyang.

Everyone knew that Zhang Huaiyang was protective of his own, so no one dared to provoke Zhang Pan.

"What do you want?" Lu Ran asked.

"Lu Ran, let's be friends. Your class is not bad; let's level up together," Zhang Pan said directly.

It could be considered straightforward.

He just wanted to make friends with Lu Ran.

But this attitude was a bit baffling.

"Not interested," Lu Ran said casually.

But Zhang Pan was still unwilling to move aside; instead, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Lu Ran.

He said, "I don't like the feeling of being rejected. You should know that. Although you are a hidden class, you need to grow up to truly be a hidden class. If you die halfway, then you're nothing at all."

At this moment.

Lu Ran almost laughed out loud.

Is this... threatening me?
