Rong Hang silently turned his head, his long eyelashes revealing dark, deep eyes that looked utterly innocent at that moment.
Jiang Yixing, however, was not fooled. Although Rong Hang seemed harmless now, he was not a good person, and she knew that better than anyone.
"Hmph—you go get tested too!"
Jiang Yixing showed Rong Hang no respect whatsoever, and pulled Rong Hang toward the testing station.
Rong Hang was being dragged along, his face expressionless, yet one could discern a hint of grievance in him.
Several girls watching covered their mouths and whispered to their friends, "So cute!"
Rong Hang overheard the girls' discussion, glanced over, and immediately shut them up.
His eyes... were so cold.
However, just as the two reached the testing station, a man in a suit rushed out from inside the corridor. He jogged all the way and was already panting slightly when he arrived in front of Jiang Yixing and Rong Hang.
"You...you are...Jiang Yixing? No, no, Senior Jiang!"
The man propped himself up on his knees, raised his head, and wore glasses on his fair face, looking to be in his twenties or thirties.
Jiang Yixing nodded.
"Hello! I am An Tao, the director of the Alliance B City office."
"Hello." Jiang Yixing smiled at An Tao.
"Senior Jiang, please come inside with me. I will present you with the badge."
Jiang Yixing pointed at Rong Hang, "My friend hasn't been tested yet."
"It's okay, let's go inside and test it."
"Alright."
Led by An Tao, Jiang Yixing and Rong Hang walked into the deepest part of the office.
It turns out there was a small courtyard hidden behind the main hall, a quiet and secluded place with groves of bamboo, a green pond with clear water, and a gentle breeze blowing through the hall.
"Senior Jiang, Senior Rong, Young Master Zhou, this way please."
An Tao led the group to a quiet room, which was brightly lit, clean, and warm.
Zhou Xinghe looked around excitedly, "I've never been here before!"
An Tao smiled and said, "Young Master Zhou should have come here when he was a child, but you just don't remember."
Zhou Xinghe exclaimed, "Really?"
An Tao adjusted his glasses, smiled, and nodded.
"Senior Rong, please extend your hand here."
Rong Hang stretched out his hand; his skin was frighteningly pale.
Rong Hang began to release his spiritual power, and as soon as the power was released, the temperature in the entire room dropped drastically.
Zhou Xinghe rubbed the goosebumps that had appeared on his skin and shook them off.
The testing instruments were even partially frozen, gradually becoming shrouded in icy mist.
Jiang Yixing immediately made a hand seal, and a flame appeared in his hand. The temperature in the room gradually rose again, and it finally returned to warmth.
An Tao breathed a sigh of relief and took out a handkerchief to wipe non-existent sweat from his forehead. "It seems that Senior Rong is of the ice attribute."
Zhou Xinghe immediately asked, "Ah, so Sister Yixing, are you a fire elementalist?"
Jiang Yixing shook his head, raised his other hand, and tiny green specks emerged from his fingertips. In an instant, the plants outside the window stirred, and the bamboo sprouted several centimeters upward.
"So it's Mu! She gives off a similar vibe to Sister Yixing."
At this point, the changes on the monitoring instrument finally stopped. The data also remained at the Foundation Establishment stage.
An Tao gasped. Although he had expected it, he was still shocked when he saw it with his own eyes.
"Senior Rong, Foundation Establishment Stage Two," An Tao announced.
Zhou Xinghe immediately clapped, "Sister Yixing, Brother Hang, you guys are amazing! So incredible!"
After the detector finished its test, it fell silent.
"Why isn't it making a sound?" Jiang Yixing raised an eyebrow.
"Because the instruments in the hall were later modified by Master Ji Fu, who said he wanted to give the examiners a surprise."
"ha?"
An Tao continued, "Senior Jiang, this is the first time we've used this function here!"
Jiang Yixing was speechless. So he was the first one to suffer?
"Senior Jiang, Senior Rong, please wait a moment while I go get your medals and certificates."
Before long, An Tao returned with two gleaming gold certificates and medals in his hands.
The certificate has a gold cover, and the inner pages are printed with the person's name and photo from their ID card.
Jiang Yixing's ID card was taken a few years ago; her hair was tied in a high ponytail, and she looked slightly immature.
Jiang Yixing glanced at Rong Hang's photo. His bangs were obediently down, revealing his eyebrows and eyes. His skin was snow-white, like Snow White from a fairy tale.
“Two seniors,” An Tao rubbed his hands together, “would you be interested in joining our alliance?”
Jiang Yixing and Rong Hang both looked up at An Tao, but neither of them spoke.
Anto felt a sense of awe under Alexander's gaze, and his hands unconsciously began to rub together.
"Here's the thing, the alliance usually handles matters that ordinary police officers can't handle, which is also a requirement given to us by the country. We're inviting the two of you to join as advisors. Needless to say, the benefits and compensation are at least in line with the standards of national civil servants. Normally, we might need your help with some special missions, but ordinary missions will be handled by specialists."
"What do you two think?"
An Tao then pulled Zhou Xinghe over to give examples, "Young Master Zhou is also a member of the league, and he's very active in his team. And Senior Zhou is also a backbone of our B City league!"
Jiang Yixing raised an eyebrow at Zhou Xinghe.
Zhou Xinghe nodded. "I did join the alliance. I'm not particularly busy with missions usually. Sister Yixing, Brother Hang, if you're not too busy, you can join too."
Zhou Xinghe leaned close to their ears and said, "The alliance's resources are top-notch; you won't regret coming here."
Rong Hang glanced at Jiang Yixing, and Jiang Yixing nodded.
"Can."
"That's wonderful! The alliance desperately needs talents like you two to join us!"
An Tao then produced two more consulting agreements from who-knows-where. "Senior, shall we sign them now?"
Jiang Yixing took it and glanced at it. It was also a kind of constraint of heaven and earth, unlike the immortal realm where oaths were required as proof, but rather a contract was signed directly.
Seeing this today, it is truly a wonderful idea.
"This was also made by Ji Fu?"
An Tao shook his head. "This is a method that Senior Gu Chun came up with."
"How can I meet these two people?" Rong Hang suddenly asked.
An Tao was taken aback. "Gu Chun and Ji Fu are now the general secretaries of the alliance. If you wish to meet them, I can try to contact them for you."
Jiang Yixing understood that Rong Hang was asking on her behalf, since she was looking for a magical artifact that could connect the two realms, and perhaps Ji Fu, who was skilled in artifact crafting, might have some good methods.
"Then I'll have to trouble you."
"It's alright, it's alright, but I can't guarantee I can get in touch with him. As you know, cultivators always go into seclusion from time to time. Lord Gu Chun just came out of seclusion not long ago, so he shouldn't be going into seclusion again anytime soon. But it's hard to say about Lord Ji Fu. We have a hard time knowing his specific whereabouts."
"Understood." Jiang Yixing nodded.
