“Mr. Han, we are all doing this for Central State, for the Federation, there’s no question of poaching or not poaching,” Kui Shanhai regained his composure, and his attitude was not as haughty as one might expect.

On the contrary, his manner of speaking was very polite.

Compared to the connections behind him or his current status, he simply couldn’t hold a candle to Mr. Han here, who was almost like the master of Central State.

Moreover, there were rumors that a certain councilor from Central State intended to push Mr. Han up the ranks.

He had once wondered… Was Mr. Han his real son?

Why else would he receive such care?

But regardless, he dared not offend the other party.

That was why he had chosen to extend an invitation when Mr. Han was not present.

Unfortunately, Mr. Han had returned much faster than expected.

Mr. Han glanced at him leisurely, the faint smile at the corner of his mouth never fading, “Regarding the Central State candidates for this examination, I’ve just discussed with Headquarters. If the Judgement Place is interested in any candidates, remember to submit a report to me in advance, and I will approve it based on the facts.”

Waiting for your approval…

Kui Shanhai’s expression changed slightly.

The representative from the Judiciary next to him chuckled as he smoothed things over, “It seems Mr. Han already has plans for them. I wonder where our Pei Dacaizi will be assigned?”

Mr. Han’s face remained unruffled, “Specific arrangements will have to wait until after the results are compiled and unified.”

As he spoke, he looked toward Pei Jinye, and upon making eye contact, he nodded slightly with great cultivation as a gesture.

He then looked at the people around him.

“Just let them rest well here.”

Following Mr. Han’s words, the people surrounding the meeting room dispersed one after another.

Chu Wuxiu, who had just been called by the City Hall to accompany them, unexpectedly stole a glance at Pei Jinye.

With his status, he wasn’t yet qualified to reach such an occasion.

Thus, he was unaware of what had transpired, but seeing so many bigwigs present and Pei Jinye staying until the end…

This posture… He probably passed, right?

He skeptically retracted his gaze and quickly caught up with the exiting senior officials from the City Hall, falling to the very end of this small crowd.

Soon, only Pei Jinye and Gu Wutong were left in the room.

The two men exchanged glances.

Gu Wutong teased, “It’s clear everyone is interested in you. If there were no complications, your evaluation process wouldn’t have caught the attention of that group… not to mention the proactive invitation from the Judgement Place.”

Pei Jinye glanced up without responding and continued eating.

Gu Wutong wasn’t surprised by his attitude and mused, “It’s a pity Wei Xianren didn’t dare to fight with me; otherwise, I could have seen if he was as powerful as the legends say… That guy also left rather quickly, supposedly more than two or three hours ahead of us.”

“Leaving early has its benefits?” Pei Jinye looked up.

He had spent the last of his time contemplating the Technique of Spring.

“Not really,” Gu Wutong paused and then chuckled, “To be frank, brother, compared to other candidates you seem like a little white rabbit that stumbled in without knowing anything, but this white rabbit somehow feels like a wolf in sheep’s clothing.”

Pei Jinye chewed the food in his mouth, calmly looking at him.

Gu Wutong laughed again and continued to eat.

However, he was quite curious about one thing: what magic did this student, favored by Second Middle School Principal Wang, possess to catch the eye of so many big shots?

Logically speaking, he, too, was someone who passed the assessment…

To put it more specifically, not to mention the bumpkins from Da Peng City’s local government, either Kui Shanhai or Mr. Han, which of them hasn’t seen a lot of geniuses?

To draw their special attention, it definitely wasn’t as simple as just passing the assessment.

As Gu Wutong pondered, he suddenly noticed Pei Jinye staring at him and was taken aback, “What is it?”

Pei Jinye wiped the corner of his mouth with a napkin, replying unhurriedly, “You’ve been staring at me for three minutes and fifteen seconds, then you ask me what’s wrong? Shouldn’t I be the one asking you that question?”

Gu Wutong was momentarily stunned, scratching his head sheepishly, “Ah haha, sorry about that, I’m just too curious about you.”

At least he was direct.

Seeing this, Pei Jinye simply shook his head.

He sighed inwardly.

Another curious person.

He tilted his head to look over.

However, the other party wasn’t as aggressive as Xu Tian, so he didn’t feel much killing intent for the time being.

He calmly withdrew his gaze, neatly stacked the cutlery in front of him, then looked up.

The soldier waiting at the door came over upon seeing this.

He glanced at the messy dishes in front of Gu Wutong, then at Pei Jinye’s tidy area; the contrast was striking.

Gu Wutong, unconcerned, wiped the corner of his mouth, “Can we go now?”

“Yes. But Candidate Pei Jinye, you will need to wait a moment,” the soldier replied.

Both Pei Jinye and Gu Wutong paused upon hearing this.

Gu Wutong smiled at Pei Jinye, nodded in acknowledgment, and then walked out the door.

The soldier then led Pei Jinye away from the meeting room.

In the depths of the base, a tranquil grove stood.

Here a tower over ten meters tall was erected.

However, before entering, the soldier stopped, stood at attention, and saluted, “Sir, I have brought the person as requested.”

Major General Wang smiled warmly at Pei Jinye, “Let’s go, Mr. Han is inside waiting to see you.”

Pei Jinye was silent.

Mr. Han…

Frankly, from Pei Jinye’s own standpoint, he had never delved into understanding this person.

But if it were someone else…

Councilor Cui Min.

An old councilman who had sat in Central State for forty-five years, he was a significant figure that Pei Jinye often encountered in his school textbooks.

And this Mr. Han was Councilor Cui Min’s spokesperson when away.

If one were to delve deeper,

it would be impossible not to mention those unusual memories that had emerged in Pei Jinye’s mind.

Be it Heaven God International, the Old Gods Association, or federal personnel… for this Mr. Han, one could say his reputation preceded him.

According to rumors, Councilor Cui Min, being advanced in years, intended to groom this Mr. Han, who, over the course of three years, had taken over the entire Central State and elevated its economic development to a higher level.

Besides, Mr. Han had always been a major figure who never blinked at murder.

The “dissidents” he had removed over these three years were said to number more than a hundred.

But Councilor Cui Min didn’t care at all, and even the Federation Headquarters made no comment, and precisely because of this… even Xu Tian dared not be presumptuous before this Mr. Han, despite his background from Judgement Place.

“You can go in by yourself, Mr. Han is waiting for you on the fifth floor,” Major General Wang said with a kind smile, whispering, “He put off a meeting specifically to wait for you.”

Pei Jinye nodded and thanked him.

Only when he stepped onto the second floor of the attic did Pei Jinye realize that this place was a library hidden deep in the mountains.

It was not exactly rudimentary, but it had everything that was needed.

Without appearing luxurious or flourishing, the air was filled with the scent of books.

He continued up to the fifth floor.

His gaze moved beyond the layers of bookshelves lit by light, and Pei Jinye quickly noticed an elegantly-dressed middle-aged man quietly reviewing something at his desk.

Even though he had seen him hurriedly once before at the examination venue, at that time Pei Jinye had not had a detailed conversation with him.

Perhaps…

The man was also showing some restraint.

“Sorry for making you wait,” Mr. Han said, looking up and noticing Pei Jinye as soon as he finished reviewing the documents.

The incandescent light fell on the shoulders of the two men.

The man spoke with a slight apology, “A bill came up unexpectedly that I had to deal with.”

“You are too polite,” Pei Jinye stepped forward, saying that he had stood at the entrance to not disturb Mr. Han and had taken a book from the staircase.

He then put back the book.

Mr. Han noticed the book: “Sumo Extreme Path?”

With a slight smile, he said, “It seems you are really interested in martial arts.”

“I have always been interested in behaviors that can protect myself,” Pei Jinye said modestly, yet underlying his words was caution and meticulousness.

Mr. Han chuckled lightly in response, “It’s indeed rare to hear someone speak so directly and uniquely about fearing death, but I don’t oppose your approach. However, the technique in this book you have isn’t really a good life-saving technique.”

Pei Jinye looked inquisitive.

Mr. Han gestured for him to sit down across from him and spoke unhurriedly, “There are actually quite a few ways to save your life in this world. For example, you can practice techniques that extend your Vitality. Since you have practiced Vitality techniques, you must be aware that if you don’t continue Vitality extension techniques after middle age, your Vitality will gradually decline…

So some people who cling to life create techniques to extend Vitality. You might want to pay attention to that.

Apart from playing it safe, there’s also taking the initiative. You don’t want to kill people, but there’s always someone who wants to kill you.”

Pei Jinye thought for a moment… then asked seriously, “What if I were to learn both?”

“Of course, that’s no problem,” Mr. Han seemed not to discourage people easily, looking at him with depth, “Pei Jinye, have you ever heard a saying that when you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back at you?”

Pei Jinye looked puzzled, “What does Mr. Han mean?”

Seeing him like this, Mr. Han just chuckled softly and said, “You’re an intelligent person, and I prefer not to beat around the bush when dealing with intelligent people. So I want to know… if I gave you the authority to kill, could you restrain yourself?”

Pei Jinye was taken aback.

The authority…to kill?

His expression confused.

He was alert on the inside.

What is this guy implying?

Is he testing me?

Or is he… doubting me?

Is there anything about me that’s suspect?

Could he really be planning…

Pei Jinye said with a “frank” look, “Sorry, although I would like to say I have no problem, it seems I am not that insane yet. Or are there certain conditions specified within your question?”

Mr. Han smiled and said, “If there must be a condition, it would be to strike down traitors who betray the Federation. Is that clear enough?”

Pei Jinye nodded.

Mr. Han’s hands with distinct knuckles rested on the table, and those calm eyes beneath the gold-rimmed glasses slowly shifted.

Regarding your arrangement, I actually spent a few more minutes thinking about it. Usually, after passing the special difficulty, those top-tier schools would initiate invitations, offering direct admission without examinations until school starts next September. However, regarding the talent you’ve shown, I believe you wouldn’t want to waste nearly a year of precious time, right?”

Pei Jinye did not deny it.

In his plans, he was preparing to start with the Bronze Association.

As for the Old Gods Association…

After Black Shark and Silver Art disappeared, he had also faked a death scene on his end, so he didn’t plan on provoking them any further for the time being.

However, now that Mr. Han seemed willing to offer some help…

“There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world, right?” Mr. Han’s gaze was smiling as he spoke.

“How about… you name a price for me to hear first?”

Across the desk, the young man backed away in order to advance, yet his demeanor held a certain intelligence unwilling to show weakness.
