After knowing the required level limit is actually not a problem for Ling Ran, it's just that none of his friends have reached that level yet. The only person who had surpassed level 35 was only himself on the team, perhaps also in the new Arcandria Online Game Ling Ran who had reached level 40. Therefore, the only thing Ling Ran could do at the moment was to level up waiting for her friends.
Moreover the reason why Ling Ran worked so hard was not because he was chasing a mere useless level target but because that day he saw it on the official website before going online. The system has a new contest for the first time this month.
