Report

"If you shut your mouth, no one here will treat you as a mute." Zhou Yu looked at Anda and uttered a famous Federation proverb. His calm gaze startled Anda. He scratched his head and obediently shut his mouth.

"Since you are a student of Ewha University, you must be studying under Professor Zhou," said Zhou Yu as he turned around and smiled at Xu Le.

For some reason, Xu Le felt that the other party's gaze on him was a little strange. He had always thought that his face was very ordinary, but who would have thought that the other party would be able to recognize him just from his voice?

After a few words, although Xu Le was not familiar with this ace student of the First Military Academy, he had gained a deeper understanding of him. He thought to himself that this person was able to obtain such respect and status among so many proud military students of First Military Academy. It seemed that it was not only because of his excellence, but also because of the aura he exuded through his speech and actions.

At this time, all the examinees had already entered the meeting room. They were either nervous or calm as they waited for the final assessment results. Just like in the cafeteria, the hundred or so examinees were still divided into three groups according to the three major military academies. And because Xu Le was talking to Zhou Yu, he just happened to be sitting in the middle of this group of students from First Military Academy.

"The blonde examinee sitting in the first row is Park Ji-ho from the Third Military Academy. I heard that he flew over from District S3 a month in advance for the Shell Motor Company's spring recruitment. I wonder how he did today. "

Under the strange gazes of the surrounding students, Zhou Yu calmly introduced the examinee to Xu Le. He was indeed very interested in Xu Le. On one hand, it was because he had guessed that the other was that fellow with the strange mecha piloting ability. On the other hand, before he had left the school, the staff of the Xiu Shu Foundation who had sponsored his studies for four and a half years had once asked him about the abilities of the black mecha operator from Ewha University.

In other words, Zhou Yu now knew that this auditing student who had once been a trooper had long since entered the sights of the Tai family management. He really wanted to try and get in touch with this kind of person.

"Park Ji-ho?" Xu Le naturally did not know what Zhou Yu was thinking, so he replied casually.

"He's the ace student of the Mechanical Department of the Third Campus. Last year, during the Tri-College Exchange Conference, he once fought against me in the mecha combat room. In the end, the professors determined that it was a draw. "When the topic of mecha combat was brought up, Zhou Yu looked at Xu Le with a hint of a smile in his eyes.

Xu Le was slightly surprised, and his gaze turned towards the golden-haired candidate in the front row. Although he had not had much interest in mecha combat, his training in Area H1 had made him no stranger to mecha combat. In that mecha battle, he had fought to a draw with Zhou Yu beside him, but he knew very well that if not for that antique simulation system, if not for the mysterious power within his body, and if not for his excellent luck at that moment... he definitely would not have been able to hold on under the ferocious attacks of Zhou Yu's silver mecha.

For that Park Ji-ho to be able to fight to a draw with Zhou Yu, he must also be quite a powerful character.

"Park Ji-ho is proud and arrogant, and is completely unwilling to admit that it was a draw. This morning, he already made an appointment with me. After entering the company, we will have a real mecha battle on the testing grounds..." Zhou Yu looked at Xu Le, and asked seriously, "Are you interested?"

Hearing the first half of the sentence, Xu Le sighed internally. These outstanding students of the three major military academies were indeed full of confidence and pride. It looked like they had never considered that they would fail the assessment. However, when he heard the last sentence, his heart could not help but tighten. He narrowed his eyes at Zhou Yu, and after a long pause, he smiled and said, "I have never even seen a real mecha in my life."

Zhou Yu saw that Ling Lan was unwilling to respond to his probing, but he was not in a hurry. After a moment of silence, he asked directly, "The last time I went to Ewha University, there was a black mecha..."

The smile on Xu Le's face did not change, but his heart was growing more and more nervous. He did not know how the other party had connected him to that black mecha. Although he had already confirmed that the mysterious trembling power within his body could be perfectly concealed, and that even if someone found out that he was the pilot in that black mecha, there would not be any major problems, he still subconsciously felt somewhat uneasy.

Fortunately, Zhou Yu's calm and questioning gaze did not put too much pressure on him and force him to admit anything. Because at that moment, a row of seven examiners walked into the meeting room.

The meeting room instantly fell silent. Xu Le let out a silent sigh of relief and shifted his gaze away. He noticed that the golden-haired examinee in the first row had finally raised his head at that moment. Right after that, he noticed that this row of examiners was surrounding a middle-aged man in the middle, and that middle-aged man looked somewhat familiar.

It was the examiner Xu Le had interviewed with in the morning. He narrowed his eyes slightly at the middle-aged examiner, and could not help but feel a little surprised. It looked like the other party's status in the Shell Motor Company was not low.

...

...

The human resources manager of the Shell Motor Company Engineering Dept., José, used a cold gaze to sweep across the faces of the examinees in the meeting room. Unlike his gaze, his mood was actually quite good. The results of this spring recruitment exam had greatly exceeded his expectations. It looked like the all-rounder plan of the Ministry of National Defense was indeed not bad. The most outstanding graduates of the three major military academies had indeed performed much better than the previous examinees. Of course, the one who made him even more satisfied and gave him endless surprises was still the examinee he had personally interviewed.

Among the seven examiners, José's rank was, of course, the highest. However, he was still the human resources manager of the engineering department, and this recruitment exam was the responsibility of the head office's human resources department. Therefore, the matter of announcing the results and arranging the research direction of the examinees who passed the exam was left to the other examiners.

The recruitment of the Shell Motor Company was fundamentally different from the recruitment of other companies. However, the examinees who passed the recruitment exam would be directly assigned to different departments, and there was no collective training for new employees. On one hand, this was because the examinees recruited by the most famous company in the Federation were the most outstanding group of people, and they had to satisfy the company's requirements of being able to use them. On the other hand, the company had always believed that the training of new employees should be carried out in practice, and should not waste any time and money.

Following the voice of the examiner with a serious expression, examinees left the meeting room dejectedly from time to time. These were all people who did not pass the exam. As for the examinees who passed the exam, they listened attentively to the department they would be assigned to. Although being able to enter the Shell Motor Company was already a very difficult matter, being assigned to the best and most important department was, of course, an even better thing.

The examinees who did not know the results of the exam were extremely nervous as they waited. Among them, there were naturally some who were different. For example, the blonde examinee in the first row, Park Ji Ho, or the smiling Zhou Yu, or … Xu Le. He was very clear that although he did not finish the last big question, he should have just passed the basic score. He only secretly wished in his heart that it would be best if he could enter the engineering department. This was because, within the Shell Motor Company, other than the research institute, the engineering department had the most access to the most advanced technology.

A large part of the reason he wanted to enter the Shell Motor Company was because he wanted to get close to that information.





Supervisor José glanced at his wristwatch and realized that the flight back to Hong Kong was getting closer. He gently patted the shoulder of the examiner in front of him and said a few words with a smile. Then, he stood in front of everyone.

He stared at the examinees who were still sitting in the audience and said, "I am the human resources supervisor of the engineering department, José."

Hearing this sentence, there was a sudden commotion in the audience. These students from the three major military academies were very clear about the position of the engineering department in the Shell Motor Company. Other than the research institute, the engineering department should be the most advanced department. Originally, they did not expect to be able to enter the engineering department, but they did not expect that the human resources supervisor of the engineering department would be present in today's recruitment exam. What did this mean?

"I don't have much time, so I only have a few words to say. In today's recruitment exam, you all did very poorly. Only seven people were able to pass the basic score … For those who passed the exam before, don't show the arrogance on your faces like you did in school. You all did not pass the basic score. "

"The seven examinees who passed the basic score, not bad. On behalf of the engineering department, I welcome all of you. "

The examinees in the meeting room were originally a little embarrassed, but after hearing this sentence, they could not help but become restless. They finally confirmed that the supervisor of the engineering department had personally come to the recruitment exam site to recruit people!

All of the examinees wanted to enter the engineering department, so they all pricked up their ears, hoping that their names would come out from the supervisor's mouth. Even the examinees who had already been assigned to different departments were curiously watching. They did not know which lucky ones, or perhaps the most outstanding ones, would be chosen by the Shell Motor Company.

The atmosphere in the meeting room was a little tense.

...

...

"... Park Ji Ho, Zhou Yu."

After reading out the six names, José subconsciously paused for a moment. Zhou Yu, whose name was called out, smiled. The blonde examinee in the first row relaxed his body, but frowned. It was obvious that he was not satisfied with Zhou Yu's name being called out after his.

The examinees in the meeting room were both surprised and not surprised to hear these two names. This was because the students from the three academies often interacted with each other. They were very clear that in this batch of students, Park Ji Ho from the three academies and Zhou Yu from the one academy were the most outstanding.

They were curious about who the seventh name was. Could it be that his results were better than Park Ji Ho's and Zhou Yu's? But they heard that there were no outstanding people in this batch of students from the two academies …

José smiled as he looked at the circle of people from the one academy. He said, "Xu Le."

Once these words were said, the crowd was in an uproar. The students from the two academies in the front row could not help but stand up and turn to look at the circle of people from the First Military Academy. They wanted to see who this unfamiliar name was in the first academy. However, when they found out that the examinee chosen by the engineering department was actually the one they had previously mocked … Squatting Soldier, everyone's expressions became extremely interesting.

The only one who was mentally prepared, Zhou Yu, could not help but be surprised. He smiled and patted Xu Le's shoulder. Everyone in the circle of people from the one academy was already stunned, especially the boorish Anda. At this moment, his mouth was wide open, and he looked at Xu Le as if he was looking at a monster. He was speechless for a long time.
