She pulled him into her arms with such force that she knocked Ye Chen down onto the sofa. However, Ye Chen didn't care about the stares of others and held him tightly for a while before finally letting go.
"Why are you here?" Although I already had a guess in my mind, I couldn't help but ask.
"Of course I'm here to take you away! I'm a lord now!" Ye Chen said with a hint of pride. The bond between him and his sister, with whom he had lived for over a decade, was much deeper than that between him and Jian Mengyi.
"It's a success?" Ye Chen's face lit up with joy. A year ago, when Ye Chen awakened the Seed of Hope, he sent her a message. Naturally, he would inform his family about such an important event.
"Of course! Not only me, Fatty succeeded too!" Ye Chen said with a smile. Ye Chen looked up and then noticed Fatty and Wang's father beside him.
"Not bad, you'll be the Fat Lord from now on!" Ye Chen joked, while waving his fist, making the fat man shrink back slightly. He then greeted Wang's father, "Hello, Uncle Wang!"
"Good! Good! Good girl Chen!" Father Wang nodded. He only knew Ye Chen and her family situation, but he was not as familiar with her as Ye Chen was.
"Hey! Ye Chen! You see, your younger brother, as a new lord, definitely needs a lot of Awakened Ones to supplement his strength. Why don't you introduce him to some classmates at school? Using their skills to supplement his strength is also a way for classmates to help each other out!" Director Zang said to Ye Chen.
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen immediately composed himself and sat up straight on the sofa.
"The recruitment of Awakened Ones is up to my brother. After all, he is the lord, and the development of the territory should be the priority. If he needs it, I will recommend some people to him!" Ye Chen said seriously. When it comes to the development of Ye Chen's territory, she will not be ambiguous.
"This?" Director Zang immediately looked troubled, glancing expectantly at Ye Chen, hoping that the other party could recruit more people to return.
"Here's what we'll do. In my territory and Fatty's territory, we need some Awakened Ones who are good at city building. If you have any talents in this area or top combat geniuses, you can call them over to take a look. Of course, character and loyalty must be the top priority!" Ye Chen said after thinking for a moment.
Judging from Ye Chen's situation, he seems to be doing alright here, at least there aren't any of those bullying phenomena seen online, so he wouldn't mind giving the students of this school a chance.
"Talent in urban construction? Okay, please wait a moment, I'll arrange it right away!" Upon hearing Ye Chen's words, Director Zang's face lit up with joy. It doesn't matter what kind of people they recruit, as long as they can solve the school's employment problem, it's fine. As long as they can be placed, that's good enough.
After saying that, Director Zang and the teachers from the admissions office got busy, collecting student information, searching for the talents that Ye Chen and Fatty needed, and then notifying them one by one to come for interviews.
A meeting room had even been arranged for Ye Chen and the fat man, and some students who had received the news earlier had already arrived and were waiting outside.
Awakened beings have no trouble finding employment on Earth, but having already mastered extraordinary powers, who would want to live an ordinary life on Earth? Entering the darkness is inevitable.
Therefore, finding a lord with potential and a reliable force becomes especially important.
However, after interviewing several people, Ye Chen was not very satisfied with any of them. It seemed that many of the awakened individuals at the North China Awakened University did not truly focus on learning and improving their talents, but instead blindly pursued improving their own strength.
An Awakened One with a talent for farming enhancement, instead of properly studying how to farm, has ended up with peak Tier 1 combat power. Do you think I need a Tier 1 Awakened One like you? What I need are people who can build!
Of course, this is also because Ye Chen's side is not lacking in combat power. In the case of other low-level lords' territories, the awakened powerhouses that can be quickly acquired after becoming formal lords are what they really need.
"What's the situation in your territory? Those few were already among the top combatants in our school!" Seeing Ye Chen and Fatty eliminate this peak Tier 1 Awakener, Ye Chen couldn't help but ask.
It's important to know that at the Awakener Academy, most students can graduate at the peak of Tier 1. Those who are stronger are often snatched up by other lords before they even graduate. The high-ranking lords are not subject to the autumn recruitment restrictions for new lords; they can recruit any talented person they want directly.
Once these new awakened individuals arrive in the lord's territory and have access to the resources, they can quickly grow into the lord's top combat force.
Ye Chen had been worried that others might look down on a new lord like himself, but unexpectedly, it was Ye Chen who rejected them.
"Our territory is a bit complicated. Fatty's territory is mainly inhabited by goblins and dwarves. There's no need to worry about their reproduction or scientific research capabilities. What's needed is people to manage and maintain the ecological environment."
"As for my territory, I have no shortage of high-end combat power, and I have recently taken in a group of ordinary residents from another world. Therefore, I also need a group of people to build cities for them and guide their management!"
Ye Chen said that their territory was quite different from other new lords. Others either developed their territory's resources or needed high-end combat power, but he was in a different situation. What he lacked was management talent, which was something that even Awakened Ones might not need!
However, there are regulations on Earth that make it difficult for non-direct relatives to leave Earth and go to the lord's territory in order to ensure the continuation of the human bloodline. Therefore, Ye Chen has no way to recruit management talents from ordinary universities and can only look for them in these awakened universities.
Hearing Ye Chen's words, Ye Chen understood a little and his expression was full of surprise. Then he frowned slightly and began to think hard. There were not many people in Huazhong Awakener University who could meet the needs of Ye Chen and others. After all, in order to ensure the employment rate, the school mainly focuses on the development of combat units. There are also support-type Awakeners, but very few are truly outstanding.
"If that's the case, I haven't heard of any particularly outstanding ones among the juniors and seniors. However, there's a junior in the sophomore year whose talent is proliferation, which can enhance the reproductive ability of animals. She usually likes to interact with small animals, but her combat power is a bit weak!" Ye Chen thought for a long time and finally said with a helpless expression.
There are many talented people, and it could even be said that most Awakened Ones have support abilities, but they use these abilities as much as possible in combat. Pure support is just farming and blacksmithing. If you really want this kind of Awakened One, you might as well buy a few Familiars. They are more loyal than this kind of Awakened One.
