Dragon Raja: I practiced Naruto ninjutsu next to Lu Mingfei.

"I'm going alone?" Lu Mingfei then noticed that Gu Ran was holding mooncakes.

He was playing video games and completely forgot that yesterday was the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Lu Mingfei thought to himself, this is an opportunity to show off in front of others, is it really okay for me to go alone?

"Yeah, hurry up and go. The student council's banquet starts at six o'clock this afternoon. You need to hurry up and finish delivering the things. This is hard work."

Gu Ran urged him on.

Lu Mingfei was of average strength, and when he heard Gu Ran say it was physical work, he didn't intend to help him.

He had no choice but to carry the heavy box alone, staggering towards where his various mentors were.

Chapter 121 Leading All Mankind

Lu Mingfei hadn't gone far when Nuonuo, chewing bubble gum, happened to pass by.

She sidled up to him like a kitten, looked at the suitcase, and said to Gu Ran, "Hey, junior, you're back. What delicious food did you bring?"

"Senior, are you born in the Year of the Dog? Since you're here, I won't have made an extra trip." Gu Ran opened her suitcase and took out four mooncakes for her. "These are for you and Susie, don't eat them all by yourself."

"Mooncakes? Lotus seed paste with double yolks!" Nono was stunned for a moment before remembering that yesterday was the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"Oh, right, these two are for you too." Gu Ran took out two peach-shaped buns from the box.

Nuonuo took the bun with her bare hands, looked at the pink color on it, and squeezed it in her palm.

She said, "The shape of these buns...it's kind of like the Yunnan folk songs you gave me, full of a decadent feel..."

"What are you thinking about!" Gu Ran said. "This is a longevity peach bun, consider it your birthday present. Happy birthday, senior."

Gu Ran saw these longevity peach buns at a mooncake shop in Chinatown last night. Since it was Nuonuo's birthday, he asked the shop to bring two over with them when they delivered the mooncakes.

The people at the mooncake shop didn't charge him and even gave him two red eggs as a gift.

The red eggs have now been handed to Nono.

"Let's go! Remember to eat the food before it expires!" Gu Ran hugged the box, turned around and went back to the dormitory, waving to Nuonuo behind her.

"Hey, junior, how did you know it was my birthday?" Nono asked, holding the gift and watching his back.

My name isn't Hey, it's Gu Ran...

“Norma has a birthday reminder service for classmates, just activate it,” Gu Ran said casually.

Watching his receding figure, Nuonuo suddenly exclaimed, "Gu Ran, thank you!"

Gu Ran didn't turn around, but simply raised her hand again and waved before slowly going upstairs.

……

It was six o'clock in the evening.

As the student council's banquet began, a large truck carrying a load of roses arrived and placed them in the most prominent position in Amber Hall.

Handsome men and beautiful women, dressed in appropriate formal attire, strolled through the banquet hall.

Lu Mingfei combed his hair to look like an adult, put on a handsome suit, and entered the venue with Fingel, who looked like a bodyguard.

Fingel combed his ramen-noodle hair back and tied it into a small braid, looking quite handsome.

As they entered, they also encountered Nono, who was wearing a formal dress.

So the two of them became Nuonuo's bodyguards, just like the eunuchs who served as armrests for Empress Dowager Cixi when she traveled.

Today is the liveliest day at the student council's premises.

In contrast, the Lionheart Society remained completely silent.

The members of the Lionheart Society are all future reserve talents for the Executive Department. When they graduate, the Executive Department will open its doors directly to them. Therefore, before graduation, these Lionheart Society students will have more opportunities to train in the Executive Department.

Therefore, Lionheart students rarely gather together and most of them are doing internships outside.

Gu Ran liked staying at the Lionheart Society's training ground because it was quiet and there were few people.

After dinner, he took his equipment and practiced his sword here.

Practice the simplest swing.

After more than a month of practice, he has mastered the most basic movements and has gained complete control over his strength.

He practiced each movement a hundred times, and before he knew it, an hour had passed.

Chu Zihang arrived at some unknown time.

After watching for a while, he said, "Why don't we have a sparring session?"

"it is good."

This time, neither of them wore protective gear, which is only used by beginners.

Gu Ran is no longer a beginner.

They used wooden swords and knives. Wooden swords were harder than bamboo knives, but not as tough, and they broke easily.

As the battle began, Gu Ran's movements were no longer as awkward as in their first match, nor did he passively defend; instead, he took the initiative to attack and look for opportunities.

Chu Zihang remained expressionless and calmly responded.

At this moment, Gu Ran's wooden sword and Chu Zihang's wooden saber clashed, and a crisp striking sound echoed across the training ground.

After the initial impact, Gu Ran's wooden sword continued its attack, striking the same spot on Chu Zihang's wooden sword with the same posture and trajectory!

Then came the third strike.

The fourth strike.

Chu Zihang felt the power from the wooden sword. He focused his mind on defense and met Gu Ran's attack with the same move.

Snapped!

The weapons in their hands broke simultaneously due to the impact of the two men.

"You've mastered the thirteen-flash combo quite well," Chu Zihang said, his face expressionless but his praise genuine. "To reach this level in just one month, your talent is better than mine."

The Thirteen-Flash Combo is a technique that involves continuous slashes from the same posture and angle, forcing the opponent to engage in a sword-to-sword exchange with you.

The legendary swordsman could strike the same spot on the opponent's weapon thirteen times in a row, until the weapon was broken.

However, for mixed-race individuals, thirteen is just a number.

They can easily break 100.

Gu Ran knew that he had taken a shortcut; it was only because of the Shadow Clone Technique that he was able to make such progress in such a short time.

In terms of talent, he might not be as good as Chu Zihang, who figured things out on his own.

"Senior brother, how many combos can you execute now?" Gu Ran asked.

"About two hundred," Chu Zihang said.

Suddenly, he covered his mouth and burst into a violent cough, seemingly feeling very unwell.

Is my senior brother sick?

Gu Ran immediately dismissed his thoughts. With the physical constitution of a mixed-race person, a common cold or fever wouldn't make him sick.

"Are you injured?" Gu Ran asked.

Chu Zihang looked away with his pale golden eyes and shook his head.

Gu Ran roughly understood; the problem must be caused by the burst of blood.

He didn't ask any more questions, but simply handed Chu Zihang a bottle of water.

After Chu Zihang finished drinking, his coughing gradually subsided.

"Thank you," Chu Zihang said.

His simple "thank you" carried many meanings, such as "thank you for the water," "thank you for the mooncakes," and "thank you for not asking any more questions."

"I think my senior brother will tell me one day," Gu Ran said with a smile.

"I'll tell you once you join the Lionheart Society," Chu Zihang said calmly. "I can assure you that you will be the next president."

"You said that to Lu Mingfei too, didn't you?"

“No, I invited him to join, but I didn’t promise him anything,” Chu Zihang said. “Susie and Lancelot both think that with your experience in the Executive Department, you are more suitable than Lu Mingfei to become the next president of the Lionheart Society.”

"What do you think, senior brother?"

"I think you and Lu Mingfei are both great, both geniuses. After me, you can lead the school and all of humanity."

"All of humanity...that's an exaggeration."

Hybrids fight against dragons from the perspective of humanity, but the idea that they lead all of humanity just feels a bit childish.

Chapter 122 The Dragon Invasion Begins

Gu Ran sensed a hint of tragic grandeur in Chu Zihang's cold tone just now, as if he were making his final arrangements.

"Senior brother, don't be like this. You need to take good care of your body." He patted Chu Zihang's shoulder. "You are loved and cared for. And believe me, you can live a long time."

Chu Zihang seemed to be taken aback. He didn't understand why Gu Ran seemed to know everything.

He stared into Gu Ran's eyes, trying to see through him.

Unfortunately, his golden eyes did not possess the ability to read minds.

"Senior brother, don't look at me like that, I have a girlfriend." Gu Ran pretended to be shy and covered her face.

Chu Zihang always spoke his mind, and he began to ask, "You..."

"Hey, what are you guys talking about?" Just then, Susie walked out and interrupted Chu Zihang.

Chu Zihang withdrew his question about Gu Ran and instead answered Su Xi, "I am inviting Gu Ran to join the Lionheart Society."

"Yes, my senior brother is trying to tempt me with the promise of an official position," Gu Ran said cooperatively.

He knew that Chu Zihang didn't want others to worry about his health.

Susie then walked over, and the three of them casually sat down on the lawn.

Susie looked at Gu Ran and said, "You didn't go to the student council today, which means you're not planning to join the student council?"
