Chapter 165 Rejecting Qingmiao Studio

The confident smile on Lancaster’s face froze for a moment. He looked at Locke in disbelief and actually asked, “Excuse me, Junior Locke.”

“I didn’t hear what you said just now. Are you saying that you reject our Qingmiao Studio?”

Locke frowned, a little impatient.

In fact, Lancaster was just an ordinary first-class wizard apprentice, while he himself had already entered the middle stage of first-class wizard apprentices.

Locke affirmed, “Well, Lancaster, I don’t want to join any studio.”

He has his own magic plant cultivation project and a bunch of projects of his own, and he can almost set up a studio on the spot.

It just lacks a little accumulation.

When the others heard this, they stopped in their tracks, because Locke had even rejected Qingmiao Studio, so he would definitely not consider their breeder studio.

But Lancaster still chased after him, stood in front of Locke, and said, “Brother Locke, you may not know what Qingmiao Studio is.”

“Qingmiao Studio is the largest studio in the academy. Even the second-place [Tengyu Studio] and the third-place [Yunsong Studio] are far behind our studio.”

Lancaster’s eyes even showed a hint of anger, as if he was scolding an ignorant person. “Even for a breeder, it’s a rare opportunity to join our Qingmiao Studio.”

“It’s hard to join.”

“We invited you because we have a recent project to cultivate defensive magic plants. We need to train a breeder to take over this project.”

“Otherwise you might not have this luck.”

Locke raised his brow in impatience.

He felt that he was polite enough, but this wizard named Lancaster still didn’t know when to advance or retreat.

“I’m not interested.”

“You can find whoever you want.”

Lancaster was completely enraged. “You…Augustine, you are too arrogant.”

Locke frowned.

He really felt that his reaction was very normal. He was very patient in the face of this first-class wizard apprentice who was weaker than him in magic power and breeding field.

Moreover, I have expressed several times that I do not want to participate in any studio, and it is not just Qingmiao Studio that is being targeted.

But the wizard in front of him kept pestering him again and again, as if he absolutely needed this job and it would be his loss if he missed it.

But that’s not the case.

In order to get rid of the entanglement as quickly as possible, Locke said directly: “I remember that your so-called executive partner, Mary, ranked only eleventh in the White Wizard Association Breeder Competition preliminaries.”

“And I’m number five.”

“I don’t think there’s anything good about entering Qingmiao Studio.”

“Lancaster, I repeat, I have no interest in entering any studio. If you dare stand in my way again, you will suffer the consequences.”

Locke suddenly felt that Lancaster released his magical pressure, trying to overwhelm him from the magical pressure level.

But the magic pressure on the surface of his body automatically fought back, and suddenly the magic pressure of the two first-class wizard apprentices descended. In an instant, all the small stones on the ground with a radius of ten meters centered on the two of them floated into the air.

The next moment, Lancaster felt as if he was sitting in a high-speed car and crashed heavily into a steel wall. His body shook and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Locke walked straight past him at the moment he was distracted.

Competing in magic power with a wizard who has more powerful magic power than yourself is the stupidest thing in the world.

If you don’t fight head-on, you can still rely on your experience in spells and other areas of expertise to find roundabout ways, but if you compete in magic pressure, of course the one with higher quality and more magic pressure will win.

No one present reacted. They had not expected that an ordinary recruitment would cause two first-class wizard apprentices to fight directly at the level of magical pressure.

And the one who had the upper hand was not the partner of Qingmiao Studio, but a first-class wizard apprentice who had just been promoted less than half a year ago.

Lancaster stood there for several minutes before he recovered. He had just been competing head-on with Locke in magic pressure. He had relied on the fact that he had been promoted to a first-class wizard apprentice for six and a half years, while the opponent was just a newly promoted first-class wizard apprentice.

He wanted to use the magic power he had accumulated in his daily life to teach this “rude” first-class wizard apprentice a lesson.

Who knew that the person being taught a lesson would be him.

Lancaster felt a little scared at first because he seemed to have provoked a wizard more powerful than him, but he soon thought of the Qingmiao Studio behind him.

Lancaster regained consciousness, a flicker of fear and unease in his eyes, along with a burst of anger. “How could a newly promoted first-class wizard apprentice possess such powerful magical pressure…”

“But you have a little talent, yet you dare to ignore our Qingmiao Studio like this? You really don’t know your place. We have many official breeders and first-class wizard apprentices in Qingmiao Studio.”

Lancaster saw the flashing glances and the secret sarcastic looks directed at him in the crowd, and he suddenly felt that he had just lost face in front of everyone.

He felt his face burning.

Lancaster immediately turned around in anger and shouted to Locke, who had already walked away, “Augustine, you will definitely regret this.”

“You rejected our Qingmiao Studio. I wonder where else you can find a job in the academy.”

“With an attitude like that, no studio would want a talent like you!”

“I will report this matter to Senior Mary. Just wait!”

Locke didn’t turn around, but raised his left hand and waved to him from a distance. “Okay, I’ll wait.”

Anyway, as long as he doesn’t block my way and prevent me from leaving, it has nothing to do with me.

I still have to be busy going to Aisi and Angelo’s shop to sign the contract for memory ointment.

The so-called studio is nothing more than a place where breeders who are temporarily incompetent can gather together for warmth, or a place where powerful breeders start to cooperate with other first-class wizard apprentices in order to increase production.

I don’t need to join any studio at all. On the contrary, I am somewhat interested in opening a breeder studio in the future.

If he opened a studio, he would not only be able to recruit first-class wizard apprentices as employees, but also gain partial management rights over the plantations they held.

Locke raised his eyebrows, snapped his fingers, and muttered to himself, “After all, he’s still a white wizard. When it comes to threats, they’re so childish.”

“You actually threatened me by making it impossible for me to find a job.”

“If they were dark wizards, they would probably have attacked us directly. But after all, they and I are from the same academy, so there’s basically no conflict of interest. It’s just their attitude that makes me unhappy, so there’s really no reason to fight.”

Although Locke was able to suppress his emotions a little, wasted half a day, and slowly rejected the job invitation from Qingmiao Studio, he was willing to compromise.

But Locke thought about it carefully and realized that this was unnecessary.

I really can’t find any reason why I should compromise myself.
