The receptionist thought for seconds and said with a cold expression on her face " Ok it's not your mistake. But if you recommend this type of garbage next time. Your recommendation quota for next time will be cancelled. I think you got it. "
A middle-aged man nodded after hearing what she said while sweating profusely because he's afraid of what he heard from others about hall master. He's afraid if he will get punished by the hall master for this mistake. This thing ended immediately after Song Lu came forward and submitted a simple bowl without any designs. But there are not any mistakes to note about it. After taking a few looks the receptionist said " It's good. But it's not enough to get a pass to the next level. So he is disqualified. "
Song Lu doesn't show any surprise. He just nodded calmly. As if he already predicted this outcome. The receptionist also doesn't say anything more just nodded and looked at another weapon presented and focused on doing her job dutifully.
Song Lu moved next to Wang Wei and asked with a low voice " How's your result? "
Wang Wei said with proud " What do you think. "
Song Lu intensified his glare. Wang Wei doesn't want to push his Uncle's limit anymore. So he said immediately " I passed to the next level without any difficulty and I guess it's not a surprise to you. "
Song Lu retorted by saying " What does the receptionist said to you? "
Wang Wei said plainly " She said I'm genius and will get chosen by hall master as a disciple. " Song Lu just saw through his lies with his intense glare. So he said the truth straightforwardly.
Wang Wei continued his talk by saying " She said I have a talent. But there are others older than me with enough experience to beat talent. So Work hard. "
Song Lu nodded simply and questioned him in a high voice " So take her advice and listen and live by it. Do you get it? "
Wang Wei replied with the same enthusiasm " Yes sir! "
After hearing Wang Wei's reply Song Lu nodded with satisfaction and said " Just stand here until she says otherwise. " and he waited with other forgers.
A few minutes later, after noting down everything in a notebook in her hand. The receptionist turned around and said with a sweet and professional smile to everyone present " Now that's it for today. Take some rest at home and come tomorrow only those who passed this level. As for losers, it's the end of the day. Please go out and try next time. "
After hearing what she said those who don't pass the level all felt ashamed at their inability. All of those who passed showed prideful expression. Even Wang Wei, because that's human nature. There's no way in hell we all will be equal with this type of trait in humans. We always felt considerable satisfaction when putting someone down in any possible way. But that's what we deserve. Because we only feel resentment only we are the ones who get trampled on.
After the receptionist dismissed everyone and left. One of the rich kids who passed looked at all the kids who passed the exam present and said in a loud voice " Now everyone who passed. How about we celebrate together at the famous hotel in the inner city. Don't worry I'll manage the expenses. "
As soon as he finished his speech one of the older ones who attended the entrance exam for a long time asked with a suspicious tone openly " Why do you want to spend money for us. What's your motive? "
The rich kid replied as he already expected this question " Haha you found me. Because I do have a motive. That's to have a relationship with someone who can become hall masters disciple. "
The suspicious kid shut his mouth at this remark and looked around at other kids to see. If someone can come forward and help him. But nobody wants to be put on the spot by others and that reason seems to be legitimate enough not to help some random stranger against someone with power.
After seeing his open response majority of them were convinced to attend the so-called party even including rich people. Even if they don't have wits. They have enough knowledge to take some piece of benefit from other peoples means.
But still, some of them are suspicious and simply doesn't want to involve in these type of scenarios. Wang Wei belongs to some of those people.
Wang Wei thinking ( This is a typical scenario of a young master inviting to identify a potential protagonist. But this is also the best way to establish & grow the relationship with talented people. Before they grow their character and are aware of other people. There's no way in the hell I'm putting myself in this situation.)
After finishing his inner thinking. He moved out of the crowd and stood with Song Lu. Song Lu asked Wang Wei with curiosity " Why don't you go to the party? "
Wang Wei replied instantly with a condensing tone " I don't want to waste my time like these kids with unnecessary things. It's better to spend time about thinking what to forge something good enough to pass the next test. "
Song Lu ( What's with up his speech that makes feel like he's teasing. ) just nodded his head blankly and processing what he heard while replying " Let's go home. " After finishing his sentence he started the walk towards his house in a daze with Wang Wei who was also on daze with his thoughts ( What's up with Uncle Song! ).
They reached home and Song Lu prepared lunch for them. While Wang Wei asked from the hall " I didn't expect that entrance exam would end in less than half a day. "
Song Lu said from the kitchen " Then how long do you expect. "
Wang Wei ( After all of the novels I read had this selection or entrance process would alone take an entire volume to finish. I didn't expect this in my life. I guess this is how happens in real life. )
Wang Wei replied in a down tone after finishing his talking with himself " Nothing, I expected it grander. But it's simpler and plain. "
