The next morning, Ling Jiu and Li Kai went to the company together.
"Ol 'Ling, did you check the official website last night?"
"Yeah, I checked it out. What about you? "
"Me too, but I was mainly browsing the Pangu forum. I didn't look at the other sections."
"Did you know? I saw a post yesterday saying that Pangu has recruited more than ten thousand newcomers this year, and among them, there are more than eight hundred Earth-element Arcanists like us, and no less than fifty Dual Arcana geniuses. Damn, this is too much!"
"So many? Really? "Ling Jiu was a little surprised." Isn't the proportion of Arcanists very low? How come there are so many newcomers? "
"The proportion is low, but there are too many people."
Li Kai sighed. "There are more than 100 base cities in Huaxia, with a population of seven to eight billion. There are many people with Arcana talents. Not to mention that Pangu is recruiting from all over the world. "
"You're right."
Ling Jiu nodded. Even a small proportion multiplied by a huge population base would produce a very scary number. After 30 years of development, the world's population was steadily rising every year.
"I was browsing the forum last night and found something amazing," Li Kai said.
"What is it?"
"I heard that Pangu recruited a genius this year. I heard that she has the super Dual Arcana of Manipulation and Annihilation!"
Li Kai was amazed. "Manipulation means that she can control anything, including the natural elements such as metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. How many Arcanas does that mean she has? Not to mention that it can annihilate everything! "
Ling Jiu's jaw dropped in disbelief. "That's crazy! Really? "
"The rumors in the forum are real. It should be true," Li Kai continued. "I heard that she is from the Yang Group in Chang'an Base City. Is she the daughter of the chairman of the Yang Group?"
"The Yang Group?"
Ling Jiu was taken aback.
"Ol 'Ling, don't tell me you haven't even heard of the Yang Group?"
Li Kai was puzzled. "That is the number one consortium in the northwest. Its headquarters is located in Chang'an Base City. I heard that the Yang family that controls the Yang Group is also the number one family in Chang'an Base City. Chang'an Base City is a large base city!"
"The Yang family!"
Ling Jiu murmured, an imperceptible glint flashing in his eyes. "Let's go, it's almost eight o'clock!"
...
"In this trial assessment, there are a total of 15 of you. 14 of you have passed and 1 has been eliminated!"
In the conference room, the relevant company leaders, Instructor Bai Yang, and the 15 rookies were all present. Manager Lorger was giving a concluding speech.
Today, Lorgar was wearing a tight-fitting leather jacket and trousers, which vividly displayed her perfect figure and graceful curves. She was extremely beautiful.
"It is worth mentioning that Ling Jiu has won first place in this assessment. He has greatly demonstrated the demeanor of Pangu. He is worthy of praise."
Luo Jia's beautiful eyes fell on Ling Jiu as she smiled. "Ling Jiu, come with me to the office later to re-sign the contract. An A + contract!"
"A + grade contract?"
The rookies were stunned. Wasn't it an A-class contract? How did it become A +?
Lorger smiled at the puzzled gazes of the crowd. "Since the Fire God can offer an A + level contract, Pangu will not be stingy!"
So that was how it was!
After the trial assessment, they had witnessed Vulcan poaching Ling Jiu, so they naturally knew the specifics. Ling Jiu had rejected them at the time, but they did not expect the company to be so generous to match him with an A + contract from Vulcan.
How envious!
The rookies looked at Ling Jiu, their eyes full of envy. Half a year ago, everyone was at the same starting line, but in just half a year, the gap was so big. They were still on a C-class contract, but Ling Jiu was going to sign an A + contract.
Why was the gap between them so big?
"Thank you, Ms. Luo!"
Ling Jiu expressed his gratitude.
"Keep it up, keep it up!"
Lorger nodded slightly and then looked at another rookie. "Lin Xiaochen, you have not passed the assessment. According to the rules, you can only terminate the contract!"
"Ms. Luo, give me a chance?"
Lin Xiaochen's body trembled as he whispered.
"This is the rule set by the Arcanist Management Center. No one can violate it!"
Lorger shook her head. "Xiao Wang, take him to the Mind Department and erase his memory of the Kraken Absorption Technique. At the same time, take back the house allocated to him by the company and his salary for the past six months!"
"Yes, Ms. Luo!"
The Arcanist responded and then looked at Lin Xiaochen. "Follow me!"
Lin Xiaochen looked as if he had lost his parents and obediently followed the Arcanist Xiao Wang out of the conference room. The other rookies looked at his back, and their hearts skipped a beat.
Although they knew in advance that this would be the outcome of failing the trial, when it really happened, everyone could not help but shudder in fear.
Lin Xiaochen was really fired, and the townhouse allocated to him and half a year's salary were all taken back. Even the Gene Arcana secret technique, the Kraken Absorption Technique, would be erased. It was tragic, too tragic!
"Rewarding the good and punishing the bad, survival of the fittest. This is the indomitable principle that allows Pangu to stand at the top of the world and become the world's number one Arcana organization!"
Looking at the expressions of the rookies, Lorger said in a deep voice, "I hope that in the following work, all of you will work hard and strive to be the first! As I said before, the company will not be stingy with rewards for outstanding performance, and the punishment for bad performance will not be light! "
"Yes, Ms. Luo!"
"Very good!"
Lorger nodded slightly. "Next, let's talk about your work arrangements. All of you are already qualified Level 1 Arcanists, and the biggest role of an Arcanist is not to stay in the company to do technical and clerical work, but to venture into the wilderness and hunt Direbeasts!"
Venture into the wilderness and hunt Direbeasts!
Ling Jiu perked up, his eyes filled with anticipation.
"So, there are two paths in front of you!"
Lorger said faintly. "First, become a Wild Hunter! After becoming a Wild Hunter, you can freely go into the wilderness, hunt Direbeasts, and then sell the Direbeast carcasses to the company or other organizations!
"The difference is that if you sell to other organizations, the company will take 10% of the profit, but if you sell to the company, you will not take 10% of the profit!"
Ling Jiu nodded slightly.
Every part of a Direbeast was a treasure, especially the carcasses of high-level Direbeasts, which were even more valuable. Why would an Arcana organization recruit so many Arcanists?
To hunt Direbeasts, of course!
Direbeasts were a highly profitable industry, more profitable than any other industry. Mobile phones, computers, real estate, oil, aircraft, and so on could not compare to the Direbeast industry. This was also the root of many Arcana organizations' survival.
Hunting Direbeasts.
Dismembering Direbeast carcasses.
And then selling them.
The flesh and blood of Direbeasts were edible, their fur could be made into leather, and their bones could be made into weapons. Even the carcasses of many mid-to-high-level Direbeasts contained rich Gene Arcana that could nourish the human body's vitality, repair damaged and aging organs, nourish the spleen, lungs, heart, and liver, and was good for physical and mental health...
In short, people in this world no longer ate poultry such as chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cows, and sheep. Instead, they ate the meat of Direbeasts that were of a higher grade.
It could be said that there was no more profitable industry in this world than the Direbeast industry.
