"What are you doing here?" Chris asked through gritted teeth when he saw the person who had arrived.
The group that collided with Ye Chen was none other than Chris and his companions, who had just come out of the trial space. Not only him, but Lin Hu and his group were also here. They were all old rivals who had fought each other in the trial space.
"Ye Chen! Long time no see!" Unlike Chris's hostility, Lin Hu greeted him with a smile. He and Ye Chen did not have any deep-seated hatred, and he believed that their relationship had been repaired.
"Long time no see, I never expected to run into you here!" Ye Chen said with a faint smile, ignoring Chris.
"Hmph! You'd better be glad you didn't run into me in the underworld!" Chris said with murderous intent, but was rebuked by Lin Hu.
"Chris, this is the China region. You need to know what you should and shouldn't say!" Lin Hu shouted sternly. Although Blue Star had been unified, the people in some regions were still very united.
"Hmph!" Upon hearing Lin Hu's words, Chris let out a cold snort, said nothing more, and turned to enter the conference room.
Seeing the other person's appearance, Ye Chen couldn't help but feel a little curious. What exactly happened between them in the trial space? Why was Chris so obedient to Lin Hu? This wasn't like him at all.
"Brother Ye Chen! As the saying goes, it's better to resolve a feud than to let it fester. We've all become official lords now, so why don't we just let bygones be bygones, like we did? Of course, I'll also talk to Chris and make sure he doesn't cause you any more trouble!" After Chris left, Lin Hu shook his head helplessly and said to Ye Chen.
Hearing Lin Hu's words, Ye Chen and the others were extremely surprised. They were not sure if the other party was just talking. Since the other party dared to say that, he must have the confidence to make Chris let go of his hatred. So what was the basis for that?
Despite his thoughts, Ye Chen remained expressionless, instead offering a calm smile. "Of course, I don't want to make such a powerful lord my enemy!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Hu immediately smiled, assuming that Ye Chen had already agreed.
"Brother Ye Chen is truly generous! I thank you on behalf of Chris! You must be here today to recruit Awakeners, right? Then I won't bother you any longer. Let's have dinner together tonight to celebrate Brother Ye Chen becoming a formal lord, and also this year's Rookie King!" Lin Hu laughed loudly. Hearing his words, many people around him showed strange expressions. They didn't expect that the young lord whom the young master of the Lin family had won over was actually this year's Rookie King.
"What Rookie King? Young Master Lin, you're giving me too much credit. I just became a formal lord a little earlier. Look at the others, they didn't come much later than me!" Ye Chen shrugged and laughed. "Then we won't disturb Young Master Lin's recruitment any longer. Let's go find the teachers at the Admissions and Employment Office first!"
"Haha, what are you saying? The Admissions and Employment Office is upstairs, you'll see it as soon as you turn the corner!"
Thank you!
After saying goodbye, Lin Hu turned and walked into the meeting room that had been arranged for him, while Ye Chen and the others came up and continued walking towards the Admissions and Employment Office.
I thought it would be a surprise to see Lin Hu this year, but when I walked into the Admissions and Employment Office, I ran into a group of familiar faces, or rather, five silly guys, who were Zhou Wenbin and others whom I hadn't seen for many days.
Not only that, they are in conflict with another group of people, and the people they are fighting with are none other than the Du Yulong and Du Yuhu brothers, whom Ye Chen and his friends encountered just a few days ago at the Chang'an Awakener University.
"Why? We were here first, why should we give up the meeting room to them? Huaxia Awakened University can't be this unreasonable, can it?" Zhou Wenxuan shouted angrily, her pretty face full of rage.
Don't let her gentle and weak demeanor in front of Ye Chen fool you; in the five-person team, she is the one who speaks for the whole group. Compared to the stuttering Zhou Wenbin and the problematic Le Xinghai and others, she can at least communicate normally with people. Her gentle and petite appearance even has a considerable advantage in many situations.
"Hmph! So what? A bunch of low- to mid-level lords, do they even deserve to recruit from a globally renowned university like the China Awakeners University? Who would want to go there? Instead of wasting the students' time, we should just give up the space and give everyone more opportunities!" Du Yuhu said arrogantly, his eyes full of disdain as he looked at Zhou Wenbin and the others.
"You!" Zhou Wenxuan was furious, but for a moment she didn't know how to refute it, because there were indeed very few ordinary lords recruited by the Huaxia Awakener University, and the students here generally wouldn't choose to join the territory of a low-level lord.
"Hey, how come I always run into these two good-for-nothings? They're such an eyesore!" The fat man's voice rang out from outside the door, startling everyone inside. They all turned to look, and when they saw the fat man and Ye Chen standing outside the door, some were happy while others were sad.
"Brother Ye Chen!" Zhou Wenxuan exclaimed in surprise and immediately ran towards the group. The Du brothers, on the other hand, looked shocked and their bodies trembled involuntarily, as if their recently recovered bodies were aching again.
"How did you get here?" Du Yuhu exclaimed in surprise, as if he felt a suffocating sensation on his neck again.
"Wenxuan, Zhou Wenbin, Little Fatty, Sissy, Caidie!" Ye Chen greeted them one by one, as if he hadn't heard Du Yuhu's voice. However, Zhou Wenxuan and the others who had just run over were stunned and subconsciously turned their heads to look.
"Brother Ye Chen, do you know each other?" Zhou Wenxuan asked in confusion.
"Huh? Just two clowns. What are you doing here? What happened? I heard your voice in the hallway just now!" Ye Chen said nonchalantly. Upon hearing the words "clowns," the Du brothers blushed and dared not utter a word in rebuttal.
"Hmph! Don't even mention it. We had originally scheduled to come here for recruitment, but we didn't have enough meeting rooms. These two came at the last minute and tried to take over our meeting room. They even said that we low- to mid-level lords are not qualified to come here to recruit. What kind of logic is that? Are we low- to mid-level lords not lords? Are we not qualified to recruit people?" Zhou Wenxuan became more and more agitated as she spoke, and her voice grew louder and louder, as if she was afraid that the teachers inside and the students waiting for recruitment downstairs wouldn't hear her.
Upon hearing her words, Ye Chen and the fat man realized that she wanted to cut in line.
Those high-ranking lords are too powerful to mess with, so they can only bully mid- to low-ranking lords like Zhou Wenbin.
Both Ye Chen and the fat man couldn't help but cast disdainful glances at the Du Yulong brothers.
