Undead Mage with No Skill Cooldown-Chapter 243: Do We Have Some Deep Grudge?

Chapter 243: Chapter 243: Do We Have Some Deep Grudge?
"Did you hear that? I’m ranked first in Tianfu Society. Even if you join Tianfu Society, you must obey me. Got it?"
As he spoke, Bai Lei’s face was full of arrogance.
What’s more.
The few Tianfu Society members around him echoed:
"Of course, Young Master Bai’s rank in Tianfu Society is unshakable!"
"Just a mere Undead Mage, Young Master Bai needn’t bother with him."
"This Lu Ran, his attitude towards Young Master Bai is really asking for a beating."
"Don’t worry, Young Master Bai, with us here, this guy won’t cause any trouble."
...
Listening to them speak, Lu Ran immediately labeled them.
Lackeys!
Since he agreed to come today with Shen Man, he was determined to stand firm.
Since Bai Lei ran into the muzzle, he was perfect to establish his prestige!
At the same time, since these lackeys chose the wrong side, Lu Ran naturally wouldn’t let it slide; he remembered them all.
Of course, in an organization like Tianfu Society, those who join are not just good-for-nothings, not all are opportunistic lackeys.
More people are watching and enjoying the spectacle.
But in their hearts, since he came to challenge Bai Lei, the outcome was predictable. Some even started to pity Lu Ran.
Among them.
There’s a small group here just to see Bai Lei make a fool of himself.
This group’s members have either heard of Lu Ran’s abilities or witnessed Lu Ran’s battles firsthand.
In their minds, Lu Ran is unbeatable.
Bai Lei running headlong into trouble, they’re happy to watch the show.
After all, normally, Bai Lei jumps around a lot in front of them. It’s time for someone to take Bai Lei down a notch.
As for Cong Shuang, looking at Bai Lei’s arrogant appearance, she almost burst out laughing.
After shaking her head, Cong Shuang came to Lu Ran’s side, looked at Bai Lei lightly, then whispered to Lu Ran: "Don’t cause any fatalities, I know with your status, you wouldn’t care, but the Bai Family is big and influential, killing him would be very troublesome, and Tianfu Society has its own rules, better to be cautious."
She knows Lu Ran isn’t afraid or worried, given his status and position, even if he killed Bai Lei, he wouldn’t face any punishment or consequences.
But trouble is still trouble.
Even though he doesn’t worry about trouble, dealing with trouble is a waste of time.
"Understood." Lu Ran casually uttered two words.
But in his heart, he really didn’t care.
A lesson is a lesson, if he dies, then he dies, whether he’ll die depends on Bai Lei’s fate.
Killing him or not, what the consequences would be, Lu Ran couldn’t care less.
Then.
Lu Ran looked at Shen Man and said: "I’ve heard of Tianfu Society, renowned outside, but this first place, is this what they’re like? How did he become the first place? If this is all Tianfu Society has, then I should reconsider whether to join."
Shen Man’s heart tightened.
But clever as she is, after looking at Lu Ran, she suddenly realized.
So she chuckled and said: "Tianfu Society’s ranking is fair, it’s based on individual battle strength, members can spar with each other, compete, and replace each other’s rankings through wins and losses."
Oh?
Lu Ran raised his eyebrows, this method is great!
Just what I wanted!
"What rank am I currently?" Lu Ran asked.
"Tianfu Society has a total of two hundred and forty-nine members, your paperwork is being processed, once complete, you’ll be the two hundred and fiftieth." Shen Man said.
Upon hearing this, Lu Ran was somewhat speechless.
This ranking is really dramatic.
Two hundred and fiftieth?
Just this coincidental?
Sure enough.
Opposite, Bai Lei upon hearing this, suddenly realized this was the perfect point to mock Lu Ran.
So he laughed heartily and said: "This kills me, if you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have forgotten. I didn’t expect Tianfu Society has gained so many useless people. Isn’t it coincidental? You’ve just joined, ranked at the bottom, ranked two hundred and fiftieth, number two five zero? Haha... it suits you well."
Lu Ran looked at Bai Lei lightly.
Ignoring him, he continued to look at Shen Man, asking: "So according to the rules, if I beat Bai Lei, our rankings will swap? I’ll become first, he’ll become two hundred and fiftieth?"
Shen Man immediately nodded.
Explained:
"That’s what it means, but that’s just part of the rules."
"If you beat Bai Lei, you’ll replace his rank, and he’ll replace yours."
"Members ranked lower usually challenge those ranked higher to climb up by replacing their ranks."
"At the same time, there’s a rule where higher-ranked members challenge lower-ranked ones."
"If the lower-ranked member loses, their rank will drop by one."
"Of course, while this challenge method exists, few actually use it."
...
Lu Ran understood what Shen Man meant.
Since Shen Man said it, there must be some purpose.
Clearly, Shen Man also wanted to take Bai Lei down a notch.
And to make Bai Lei rank two hundred and fifty, forever unable to rise!
As long as Lu Ran wants to suppress him, he’ll forever be at the bottom!
This is also why people usually don’t use this challenge method; it’s too much bullying!
Being high-ranked already implies one’s ability, challenging lower ranks is bullying itself, and defeating them forces their rank down.
If there’s no deep hatred, few would provoke others like this.
But for Lu Ran, this rule is great!
"What? Want to challenge me? You better think it over, this is Tianfu Society, I’m ranked first, you’re not qualified to challenge." Bai Lei said arrogantly.
Lu Ran stared at Bai Lei for a moment.
Suddenly asked: "I shouldn’t have known you before, but as soon as I arrived, you started targeting me. Is it inexplicable bullying of a newcomer, or is there some unknown grudge between us?"
Upon hearing this.
Bai Lei frowned and said: "Why ask that? Afraid? I’ll tell you then, as long as you joined Tianfu Society, you’ll have no good days ahead, I said it!"
Even with President Shen Man here, Bai Lei had no scruples.
Still the same, Bai Lei today is too overinflated!
But inflated as he is, to achieve first rank in Tianfu Society, his ability is undoubtedly recognized.
Even surpassing Su Ting!
Moreover, Bai Lei himself is from a previous generation than Su Ting, ranked higher, coupled with the Bai Family’s wealth and influence, equipping Bai Lei is very well fitted.
His achievements aren’t just from being a libertine.
There’s still some talent.
This is also why Bai Lei is so confident.
On the contrary at this moment.
Cong Shuang explained quietly beside: "The Bai Family and Zhao Family are family friends, Bai Lei knows Zhao Xuan from the Bai family, although Zhao Xuan is much younger."
Zhao Xuan?
The Qimen Celestial Master who lost face against Lu Ran in the Hundred Cities League?
Ah, makes sense, libertine gathering, birds of a feather!
