After saying goodbye to the examiner, Bai Yue walked out of the room. As soon as he came out, he saw Lu Ke pacing outside.
Upon seeing him, Lu Ke immediately stopped, seemingly wanting to come over but hesitant.
Bai Yue took the initiative to walk over: “Is there something you want to say to me?”
Lu Ke hesitated for a moment, then, as if summoning courage, reached out his hand, his face flushed.
“Even if you’re an alpha, I… I still want to be friends with you, okay?”
“Although I’ve said a lot of bad things about alphas before, I’ve decided to exclude you!”
He spoke solemnly, as if announcing some important conclusion.
Bai Yue looked at the other’s palm. Then his gaze moved upwards, landing on Lu Ke’s face. The other looked very nervous, his lips trembling visibly.
Bai Yue’s eyebrows curved slightly, and he reached out to shake hands: “Then, let’s introduce ourselves again.”
“My name is Bai Yue, and I’m an alpha.”
After that, although still somewhat shy, Lu Ke was finally able to communicate with him normally.
Following instructions, the two arrived near the exit of the airfield. Many people had already gathered there, standing in groups.
And in each group, there was a student in uniform.
Soon, the two found the senior student leading the group. Judging from the uniform, she seemed to be a student from the Imperial First Military Academy.
The senior student noticed the two approaching and beckoned them over. After confirming their names, she checked two boxes on the list: “Okay, everyone’s here.”
Around her, about fifty students had gathered. Aside from those who had been on the same airship as Bai Yue, the others were complete strangers.
Mu Sihan had arrived earlier, standing apart from the crowd. It was as if a wall had been erected around him, making him look completely out of place amidst the commotion.
The senior student led the group towards the outer perimeter. Only then did they notice several hoverbuses parked outside the airfield.
However, their design differed slightly from ordinary buses. The exterior looked more high-tech, and their size was much smaller, only slightly larger than a typical hovercar.
Was this meant to transport dozens of them to their temporary dormitories? Could they fit them all?
The senior student walking ahead seemed to have guessed their thoughts, so she turned back and said, “Don’t worry, it’s quite spacious inside.”
The group walked up with suspicion, and when they saw what was inside, they were all stunned.
Despite its unassuming appearance as a small, hoverbus, the interior was more than ten times larger than the exterior. It could easily accommodate over a hundred people, let alone fifty.
The senior student said, “Fewer people passed the test this year, so it’s a waste. Please, take any seat you like.” She then sat down in the driver’s seat.
“Wait, senior,” a student swallowed hard, “You’re driving?”
In his mind, only an experienced driver could drive such a large vehicle!
The senior student had already started the engine: “Yes, is there a problem?”
“No, no problem.”
The student who asked the question silently sat in the nearest seat. Without a seatbelt, he gripped the handle tightly.
Bai Yue and Lu Ke sat together. While Mu Sihan remained alone at the back.
The senior student glanced at the rearview mirror, confirmed everyone was seated, and smiled slightly: “Everyone, let’s go.”
The hoverbus shot off like an arrow. A regular bus couldn’t even reach that speed.
Surprisingly, despite the high speed, the passengers inside felt no discomfort.
The student who had been gripping the handle tightly just moments before silently released his grip, awkwardly touching his nose.
As the hoverbus departed the aerial landing site and flew towards the students’ temporary dormitories, those who had been unconscious due to pheromones finally awoke.
Except for a small number who passed, most were rated D.
Upon learning they would be sent back upon arrival, everyone wore expressions of despair.
Li Canxing never imagined that after his final live stream before leaving, bidding farewell to his fans with tears in his eyes, he would be slinking back less than a day later?
He couldn’t believe it: “Teacher, I have an A grade! They’ll regret it if Imperial First doesn’t want me!”
Hearing this, the examiner became somewhat impatient.
In previous years, he had often been responsible for arranging for students who failed the exam to go home. And these students invariably had similar reactions: either they buried their faces in their hands and wept bitterly, or they complained about the examiner’s unfairness.
“You’re from Imperial First?” The examiner glanced at his file. “Imperial First has plenty of A-level students. If you really want to get into a military academy, go back and take the college entrance exam.”
“But…but,” Li Canxing was still unconvinced, “Why am I the only one who failed? I see that the others’ gene levels aren’t higher than mine, and their performances weren’t outstanding either, so why were they allowed to go?”
The examiner said, “At least those people put up a fight. What about you? What did you do from beginning to end? Hide under the chair and escape reality?”
Li Canxing never expected that his every word and action would be so closely watched. If he had known this was a test, he would never have been such a coward.
Judging from the student’s expression, the examiner could probably guess what he was thinking.
Unfortunately, it was precisely to prevent students from having such thoughts that they never proactively disclosed the test content. And the exam format was adjusted every year.
Compared to Li Canxing, the group of people with yellow hair were even more unconvinced. Their families had paid so much money to get this spot, how could they just swim back after a one-day interstellar trip?
Yellow Hair: “You want to drop me out? Fine! But give me back my money!”
“Money?” the examiner asked, puzzled.
Yellow Hair: “Hey, you surnamed Li, get him out here!”
The examiner pondered for a moment, then realized: “That guy was just a temporary worker in the admissions office. He was fired a long time ago for misconduct.”
He glanced at the list: “Although your registration information was altered to ‘Imperial First,’ someone like you, even a little common sense tells you, how could you possibly get a guaranteed admission?”
Yellow Hair was speechless with anger: “You, you…”
The examiner added: “Everything you did on the airship was monitored.”
“Go home now and study hard for the college entrance exam, students.”
