This damn weather.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Tianhao glanced around and shouted to the crowd:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, that’s enough—everyone scatter! Go back inside! Don’t get soaked!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, sir!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The servants, still eager, dispersed in small groups.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Tianhao and Su Wan didn’t leave—they waited for Lin Mo to approach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dad.

Report to Beijing tomorrow.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Mo stared, “Tomorrow? So soon?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone else has summer break—did they just steal mine?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Tianhao nodded, his tone turning serious:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes. The Long Xu Class is different.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s not just a university. Only twenty students per cohort. It holds vital strategic significance for Dragon Nation. You’ll understand once you get there.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing his father’s seriousness, Lin Mo had no choice but to agree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine, fine. Got it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whatever. Staying home’s pretty boring anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come to think of it, I’ve never been to Beijing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Might as well go check it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, Dad.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Mo suddenly remembered, “Where’s my first-place reward? Has it arrived?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A butler in black uniform hurried over, carrying a metal case.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, Young Master—the item just arrived.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Tianhao took the case and handed it to Lin Mo, smiling, “It came right on cue. You decide what to do with it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Mo felt its weight in his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately passed it to his mother, Su Wan, and said seriously: “Mom, have the kitchen prepare it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Wan smiled and asked, “Sure. How do you want it? Braised? Steamed? Or sliced for hot pot?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Mo thought for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm... Mom, make it like a steak. Medium-rare.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sear the outside to lock in the juices. Inside... keep it as raw as possible. Load on the sauce.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Wan nodded:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, I’ll arrange it right away.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thanks, Mom!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, thousands of kilometers away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beijing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The headquarters building of the Dragon Nation Professional Association, in an office on the top floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lights burned brightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Little Lin, the Longxu Class roster is confirmed. I’m sending it to you—get ready to release it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A middle-aged supervisor spoke to a young employee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Got it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Lin glanced at the document’s roster, his eyes landing first on the top few lines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【1. Lin Mo, Jianghai City, Mage (None)】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【2. Ye Kong, Beijing, Spatial Traveler (SSS)】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【3. Chu Lingxuan, Magic City, Dawn Arbiter (SSS)】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【4. Han Mengyao, Magic City, Lord of Frost (SSS)】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Merely reading these professions, Little Lin could feel a powerful aura radiating from them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tsk tsk tsk, this is the Longxu Class—total monsters.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, he noticed the very top line and froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh? Boss, what’s this first profession?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Lin looked at the supervisor, puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The supervisor sipped his coffee and rolled his eyes irritably:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can’t you read? It’s right there!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Lin grew even more confused and scratched his head:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know it says Mage, but why is it just ‘Mage’? What does ‘None’ in the parentheses mean? Did they mess up?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Blank Mage, you idiot.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The supervisor replied offhandedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“???”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Blank Mage?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Lin stared, stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The supervisor nodded calmly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve confirmed it multiple times with upper management. They didn’t make a mistake—it’s truly Blank Mage.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Lin stared at the roster in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to past tradition, the order of names on the Longxu Class roster was never arbitrary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was ranked strictly by comprehensive strength assessment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Lin felt his worldview shaken to its core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This… this can’t be right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The supervisor checked the time and urged:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enough with the shock. Why do you care so much? Just post it and get off work.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Lin shrank his shoulders. Though a thousand complaints bubbled inside him, he nodded obediently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, alright, posting now, posting now...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he moved the mouse, he muttered under his breath:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Never seen anything like this—Blank Mage sitting atop SSS-ranked ones like they’re shitting on them... This is pure fantasy. Just post it and get home to play games and calm down...”\u003C\u002Fp>",1158,"2026-06-21T04:41:49.398Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","72ff348c7bd2af495b27c9ea96813d967b6ed16b8c2332e6bef99f472f793e5c","just-became-a-mage-and-my-skills-got-self-aware--chapter-67","just-became-a-mage-and-my-skills-got-self-aware--chapter-65",374,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fjust-became-a-mage-and-my-skills-got-self-aware--cover.jpg"]
