Versatile Mage: Undying Fire

Chapter 304 Graduation Mission
When it was about to dawn, the twin vampire girls immediately went into the room, and Lin Ran finally got some time to rest.

Lin closed his eyes and prepared to sleep comfortably, but was soon woken up.

Lin Ran opened his eyes and looked at Mo Fan angrily and said, "What are you doing?"

“Aren’t we going to ask the principal about graduation today?” Mo Fan asked.

"Oh oh oh." Lin Ran remembered, it seemed to be true.

"Wait a minute." Lin Ran said.

"Hurry up." Mo Fan said.

Looking at Lin Ran getting dressed, Mo Fan leaned against the wall and said, "Have we won the League of Legends championship?"

“Yes, I took three…” Suddenly Lin Ran turned around and looked at Mo Fan.

Mo Fan raised his lips slightly and said, "It seems that we are indeed from the same place."

The same place that Mo Fan was referring to was the world before he traveled through time.

Lin Ran nodded and said, "Yes."

"Hurry up." Mu Nujiao urged.

Mo Fan responded and then said, “I haven’t played games much since I became a mage.”

"There's nothing we can do. After all, there are no monsters or demons. Let's go." Lin Ran said.

……

"You are all going to graduate early. I will ask you later which tutor is currently teaching graduating students." Dean Xiao's face was full of smiles when he saw Lin Ran and the others coming.

Lin Ran and the others grew up under the supervision of Dean Xiao, so Dean Xiao was naturally very pleased. However, when he heard that they were about to graduate, he felt a little reluctant.

"Dean Xiao, don't be sad. Lin Ran and I live not far away. We will come to see you often and check on how your junior schoolmates are doing." Mo Fan found that Dean Xiao was not sincere, so he said with a smile.

Lin Ran stroked his chin and said seriously, "Leave the female students to Mo Fan, and let me check the young female teachers."

Mu Nujiao on the side couldn't help but pinch Lin Ran's arm. How could he say such a thing?

"Hahaha, it's still you. But I'm still happy that you graduate early. After all, the school really can't teach you anything now." Dean Xiao said.

Dean Xiao began to look through the materials, which he had just brought out. They indicated which tutors were supervising students for internships and which tutors were supervising graduates.

The main campus does not have many restrictions on students. Students can stay in school if they want, as long as they complete the tasks assigned by the school every year. Students can also graduate if they want, but there are three types of graduation, one of which is completion of the course.

Graduation means successfully completing your studies, but you do not receive the Pearl Academy magic graduation certificate badge. Most of these students are stuck in a state of stagnation. The Pearl Academy reluctantly acknowledges that you have studied here, but does not recognize you as a qualified graduate.

The second is graduation. After the tutor completes the corresponding graduation tasks, the tutor will feedback the student's performance to the school. The department heads of the school will then decide whether the student can graduate successfully. At the same time, a magic graduation badge will be issued.

The magic graduation badge of the Pearl Academy is quite important. Even in the Magic Association, Hunter Alliance, and Family Alliance, it is a symbol of strength and status. Generally speaking, qualified graduates from the Pearl Magic Academy will soon be recruited by the society!

As for the third type of graduation, it is called "excellent graduation". This must be for people who have made enough contributions to the school. If the school determines that the student is worthy of the "excellent graduation badge", the school will arrange for the student to complete a certain research or task with a more famous tutor. The school will then provide feedback based on the student's performance. After that, the tutor, dean, and department head will jointly determine whether the student can obtain the title of "excellent graduation".

Excellent graduates will receive a precious Pearl Badge, which means that you are an excellent magic student highly recognized by the Pearl Academy. Such excellent graduates will not be recruited by the society, but will be sought after by major forces. Those who can graduate with excellence are not only outstanding in strength, but most importantly, they are still young!

Being young means having infinite possibilities. The reason why major forces like to hang around universities is that they hope to dig out potential stocks that can step into the high-level. One more high-level magician means one more capital. If they accidentally discover a super-level magician, they will make a lot of money immediately!
Those who can graduate from the Pearl Academy with distinction are basically high-level wizards, and they are all under the age of 25. To put it nicely, these people are called outstanding graduates, but to put it bluntly, they are a group of magic monsters!!
Those who reach the high level before the age of 25 have the best hope of advancing to the super level, so all major forces will not let go of any monster student who graduates outstandingly from magic high schools.

Excellent graduation is unified among all colleges and universities in the country. The standards of graduation assessment, the difficulty of graduation tasks, and the degree of student contribution are all taken into consideration. People measure the status and influence of an institution in the country to a large extent by counting the number of outstanding graduates!

Pearl Academy is ranked second in the country, so the number of outstanding graduates is also second.

The rewards for outstanding graduates are extremely generous, which is why Mu Nujiao insisted on bringing Lin Ran and others to the graduation ceremony.

Moreover, the rewards given by the government to the students for the World Competition will not be issued until the students graduate. Mu Nujiao is in great need of resources now. If she can get these things earlier, she will be able to improve her strength sooner.

"I just took a look and there is nothing suitable for your graduation tasks. The difficulty level is relatively low, which is not conducive to the assessment of excellent graduation." Dean Xiao flipped through the documents and shook his head helplessly.

It is very difficult to graduate with outstanding grades, and it is impossible to be assigned immediately.

"We are not in a hurry. Let's wait for Dean Xiao to help us find a suitable graduation tutor before coming over." Mu Nujiao said.

"Um... I just looked at the schedule. Several tutors and professors who can lead outstanding graduates are now engaged in research. It is estimated that it will be difficult to find a suitable tutor to lead you in a short period of time. The main reason is that the three of you are already quite strong, and some graduate tutors are weaker than you." Dean Xiao said. When he said this, the corner of Dean Xiao's mouth twitched slightly. I don't know whether he should be relieved or sad!
Students are better than their teachers, well, well, we should be happy... Teachers should be open-minded!

"Don't we have quite a lot of graduating tutors at Mingzhu?" Mu Nujiao asked with some confusion.

"They have gone for further studies. There will be a group going there every five years. Two deans have also gone. They left me, an old man, here and asked me to manage the school. Alas, there is nothing we can do. After all, teachers also need to improve, otherwise they will be left far behind by students like you..." Dean Xiao smiled with emotion. As he was sighing, he suddenly thought of something, and then another smile appeared on his face, and he looked at Lin Ran and Mo Fan with ill intent.

Lin Ran frowned. Is there any trouble?

"Dean Xiao, if you look at people like this, something bad is bound to happen." Mo Fan was also a sensitive person, and he said immediately.

Lin Ran also nodded and said, "Is there any trouble? Everything will be fine once the money is in place."

"Haha, many of our graduation supervisors have gone for further studies, and now there is a lot of research, projects, and tasks left behind with no one to lead them to completion. I think it will not be difficult for you to let your supervisors lead you to do things. If you can complete the tasks without difficulty, then it will naturally be difficult for me to give you an excellent graduation, right? How about this, I will give you the qualification of supervisor, and then let you lead a team of graduating students to work on graduation projects!" Dean Xiao said happily.

When the three heard this, the expressions on their faces were as unnatural as possible.

But for some reason, Dean Xiao seemed very excited, as if he had finally found a way to make it difficult for Lin Ran and the others to graduate!
Really, Pearl University is a famous university after all. Can you graduate whenever you want? If you don’t leave a deep impression on your graduation tasks, you will probably forget your alma mater very soon! !
To be honest, he never intended to let Lin Ran and the others graduate quietly from the beginning!
“Dean Xiao, it’s fine if you don’t treat us students who have made great contributions to the school well, but why are you making things difficult for me?” Mo Fan said with a wry smile.

Lin Ran said, "Aren't you afraid of Mo Fan's hidden rules?"

"I believe in your character, and what you said, Mo Fan, do you still not trust my character, Dean Xiao? Because you are too outstanding, how could I send you to do something meaningless. Now the school has accumulated quite a lot of orders... Oh, I mean the indicators, and someone needs to complete them. Since you are members of the school, you should share some of the responsibilities. If you do a good job, I will personally award you the excellent graduation badge!" Dean Xiao became more and more excited as he spoke.

"Dean, don't be so deceiving. The indicators you gave us are not indicators for students. You are obviously giving us teachers annual assessment indicators!!!" Mo Fan said.

"Haha, don't worry about such details. Just pick one from these graduates. Look, if you are a team leader, you can choose the tasks. But if you are an outstanding graduating student, then the mentor will choose you. It also depends on whether the mentor has time and wants to lead you..." Dean Xiao continued to fool around.

"Then I'm willing to wait too." Mo Fan said.

What a psycho! He is here to complete the students' graduation mission!
He looked at Lin Ran and said, "You can say a few words too!"

"Hey, unspoken rules... Sorry, where were we talking about?"

"Do you think Lin Ran can be a mentor? This guy will probably harm girls."

……

Mingzhu Academy was located in a classroom in the corridor of a teaching building on the shore of Mingzhu Lake. The warm sunlight shone into this classroom with floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating the tables, chairs, instruments, and hanging lights in the room. However, it did not illuminate Mo Fan's dark face as he sat on the podium in the classroom.

For the time being, there were only Lin Ran and the other three in the classroom, but a group of graduates would arrive in half an hour. Mu Nujiao was still reminding Lin Ran not to mess around.

“If it weren’t for the fact that the instructor’s reward was so generous, I wouldn’t have taken this crappy job!” Mo Fan said.

"I guess Dean Xiao also hopes that you can intern as a tutor, and then get the title of honorary tutor in Mingzhu Academy... This will also be beneficial." Mu Nujiao said.

Lin Ran said, "There should be a girl, right?"

Mo Fan looked at Lin Ran, then looked out the window. At first he thought that Dean Xiao was joking. After all, they were just students who had not graduated yet. However, to become a mentor who would lead students to complete graduation tasks, one must at least have a mentor qualification certificate in the school.

However, he underestimated Dean Xiao's cunningness!

Dean Xiao is the dean, so his level is higher than that of the graduate tutor. If a large project task is taken over by a dean-level person, then the dean will appoint anyone as his assistant tutor.

Dean-level project tasks are usually carried out by 2 to 5 graduate supervisors, and each graduate supervisor has 3 to 7 graduate students under him.

Dean Xiao currently has a project task on hand, but none of his supervisors have made any progress, so he can only put it aside for the time being. Just then, Lin Ran and the others came over and said they wanted to be graduates, and Dean Xiao felt that it was a waste of talent to list them among the graduating students, so he simply appointed them as new graduation supervisors and asked them to take a few students to fix the part that was not progressing smoothly!
Dean Xiao cannot do many things himself, so if Lin Ran and others help him to complete that part of the project, he will give them the qualification of an outstanding graduate, so that Lin Ran and others can graduate happily and receive the award, and his project can also proceed smoothly, which is like killing two birds with one stone!

A cunning social person.

……

"I really didn't expect that we would actually be selected. This is a task assigned by Dean Xiao. When several tutors were recruiting graduates before, we tried our best but couldn't get in. All the places were taken away by those who were ranked higher. I didn't expect that Dean Xiao would increase the number of tutors now. Thank God!" At the bottom of the teaching building, a young man with a heavy and old-fashioned look exclaimed.

After a while, several young students came over. They looked at each other for a few seconds, and one of them, a handsome young man with standing hair, asked, "Are you guys here to participate in the graduation mission as well?"

"Yes, yes, our instructor is waiting for us upstairs now. I don't know if she will be a very strict old lady. If so, we will be in trouble. I have already signed the agreement with the Ocean Alliance. Now I am just waiting for the excellent graduation badge." said the young man who looked like he had walked out of a museum.

"Hmph, if you are strong enough, then it doesn't matter what kind of mentor you have." The handsome man with standing hair said that only strength is the foundation of everything.
