Chapter 907: Chapter 109: Rules-Based Specter
“An avalanche occurred at the White Cloud Mountain scenic area in Yan Country, resulting in over five hundred deaths and three hundred injuries…”
By the time the news report came out, Zhao Yu had already returned to the school.
According to the company’s arrangement, the six of them did not go to the White Cloud Mountain scenic area for this holiday.
This was also to prevent them from attracting attention should they all leave the school together in the future.
“Let’s all say something…”
Di di~!
Zhao Yu took out his phone, ‘White Cloud Mountain Free Travel’ group chat message, with eight members, which were the people from their two dorms this time.
Regrettably, among them, two would never speak again.
“Say what?” Huang Lin was the first to respond as usual.
“About the incident this time, you all know about it, right?”
“We know…” Liang Bei also appeared.
With her squeak, the others also followed up one after another.
This indicated that everyone was paying attention to the group chat.
This trip could be said to have completely changed each person’s future.
At first, everyone was somewhat restrained, after all, the incident had just occurred, and two classmates had died.
But gradually, everyone loosened up and started to talk about life again.
“Being an employee is really nice, we don’t have to do anything, and they give us a monthly salary of more than ten thousand…”
“You only have a little over ten thousand? We have over thirty thousand…”
Yang Xiaoying said contentedly, “I am now in a martial position, earning more than twenty thousand a month, and there’s even extra bonuses for each mission…”
“Hey, this money is nothing to me…”
Hu Yapeng pretended to be nonchalant, “What really matters to me is that the company organizes the study of Spiritual Power, and once my cultivation is successful, I’ll be able to fight spirit ghosts…”
“Boss Hu, Li Hu~~!”
Huang Lin said triumphantly, “Amongst us six, we have two in martial positions, Boss Hu is my iron buddy, Boss Yang is my good brother. With you guys covering for me, I’m set to live the good life!”
Yang Xiaoying curled her lip but didn’t say much more.
She was now in a martial position, while Huang Lin was just an ordinary person, destined to grow further and further apart.
Women admire strength, and for her, there were some redeeming qualities about Huang Lin in the past.
But now, to her, Huang Lin might really just be a classmate and friend she could hang out with.
Yet Huang Lin was clueless, at this moment, he felt an unprecedented satisfaction.
Among the eight of them, no other martial position mattered as much as Hu Yapeng and Yang Xiaoying.
Just as he said, his relationships with these two were the best.
Especially with Yang Xiaoying, who was also his high school classmate, and perhaps could become more, as their relationship was very good.
He cheerfully said, “Does everyone have time tonight? Let’s get together, my treat!”
Before, he would have been reluctant to spend the money, but now, after joining the company, not only did he have a guaranteed monthly salary, but also for this incident, they had given him a one-time compensation award of 100,000.
100,000, a figure that was unthinkable to him in the past.
But now, it was enough to make him a wealthy man.
After all, during student life, even freely spending ten thousand was a lot of money, let alone 100,000.
“Let’s forget it for now, these few days we have to undergo special training at the company…” Hu Yapeng said proudly.
“Oh, that’s important, you do your thing…”
Huang Lin laughed, “Then the other four of us can get together. We are all people from the same company, so we should socialize more…”
“That’s true…” Liang Bei didn’t refuse, the incident had happened so suddenly, and she was flooded with information in an instant. She too wanted to find solace in the company of others.
After all, having signed a confidentiality agreement, she couldn’t tell any of her old friends or classmates, which was quite stifling for her.
“Alright then, let’s meet at eight o’clock tonight at the restaurant outside the school…”
“Isn’t that a bit late…”
Liang Bei glanced at the time; it was only morning now. Waiting until evening to talk about the Spirit World was a bit torturous for her.
“There’s an event at the anime club today, how about we meet up at the big sports field?”
She knew about this because Cai Siyue, a member of the anime club, had mentioned there was an event today.
“Okay, let’s settle on that…”
Zhao Yu wasn’t particularly fond of such social events, but as it concerned the Spirit World, he wanted to see if the information about the Spirit World the others knew matched what he knew.
When they arrived at the sports field, the place was bustling with people, all dressed up in anime character costumes.
Some were from the school itself, others were from outside the school, coming specifically for the event.
The four met up in the stands at the sports field, deliberately choosing a corner spot where there weren’t many people, convenient for talking.
Even though Yang Xiaoying wasn’t at the school, she kept an eye on the group chat, watching the animation exhibition pictures Liang Bei and Huang Lin posted in the group, which made her think of Cai Siyue.
“If only I hadn’t egged her on, maybe…”
She felt guilty; Cai Siyue had been intending to attend the anime exhibition.
She had been the one persuading Cai Siyue constantly, which led her to join the mountain climbing trip.
Now, Cai Siyue was dead, and she was alive and well.
This made her somewhat regretful; if she hadn’t persuaded Cai Siyue back then, maybe she wouldn’t have died.
As she was thinking this, a middle-aged man walked into the classroom.
“You are all new martial employees. Today, I will explain what you need to do as martial employees, how to cultivate, and how to deal with spirit ghosts…”
