Yu Shousi spoke up.
Even without a microphone, the sound resonated clearly in everyone's ears.
After a brief commotion, everyone obediently returned to their places.
Yu Shouyi nodded in satisfaction, and after waiting a few seconds, continued, "Today is October 23rd, 2297 AD, an extremely special day, because today... our Jiangzhong Military Academy will reopen!"
"And you are the first batch of trainees after the Jiangzhong Military Academy was reborn from the ashes!"
"I don't want to go into a long explanation, I just hope that in the near future, the reputation of Jiangzhong Military Force will once again resound throughout China and even the whole world."
"Now... tell me, do you have confidence?"
"have!"
Sparse shouts rang out.
"Didn't you eat?" Yu Shousi raised an eyebrow.
"Yes!" The voice was a little louder.
Yu Shousi remained silent, merely gazing indifferently at the audience below.
"have!"
Unable to bear such contempt, the teenagers roared with all their might.
"very good."
Yu Shousi nodded and continued, "Some of you may already know that today you are not only attending the opening ceremony, but you will also be facing your first assessment to enter the Jiangzhong Military Academy!"
Many people were hearing this news for the first time and looked up blankly.
"Before the assessment begins, I need to tell you that this assessment is extremely important. It will directly affect where you will live, what kind of food you will eat for the next month, and... what level of mentor you will be following!"
Upon hearing that the assessment was linked to dormitory allocation, food standards, and mentor selection, everyone's eyes narrowed, and a mix of emotions arose, including tension, anticipation, and vigilance.
After all, this is a matter of real and tangible personal interest.
"Before the assessment officially begins, I will first introduce the mentors of Jiangzhong Military Academy who have signed contracts with you. First of all, please welcome our first honorary principal after the reopening of Jiangzhong Military Academy with the warmest applause... Pingyang Bo!"
The square suddenly became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Everyone stared in astonishment, wondering if they had misheard.
The principal... is he a king or nobleman?
As the swirling clouds reversed and a figure in green robes landed smiling on the stage, the freshmen below finally came to their senses. Amidst various exhilarating cheers, incredibly enthusiastic applause resounded throughout the square.
Shen Qian was also a little taken aback.
He had met the Earl of Pingyang before. The day the college entrance exam results were released, the Earl of Pingyang came to congratulate Shen Qian. He had also chatted with Shen Qian for a few words on the Tower of Babel. He just didn't expect that the principal of Jiangzhong Military Academy was also the Earl of Pingyang.
...Guarding the gates of mountains and seas, and being a principal of royal families, what a grand gesture!
Shen Qian smacked his lips, then suddenly realized another problem.
The old man guarding the gate, Hu, was on very good terms with him, and the principal, Pingyangbo, also had a good personal relationship with the teachers, having even drunk tea brewed by him personally. And if you add Yu Shousi, the director of academic affairs...
hiss!
It seems I'm about to dominate the Jiangzhong military force.
That long-lost sense of security in Jingcheng... it seems to have returned.
