"Are you Mister Xuu Min?"
Elder Kong's attitude was more respectful than imagined, with a friendly smile and a gentle demeanor, completely different from how he had helped others assess Xuu Min in the assembly hall just moments before.
But that was normal, after all, these people excelled at forming cliques and preferred to bully those without any backing, whereas they wouldn't dare act arrogantly towards those truly in control of violence.
Both Xuu Min and Gong Mingrui, however, were icy in their demeanor, from the start to the end, they barely wanted to glance at these old men.
Especially Gong Mingrui.
He was older than Xuu Min and, besides the battlefield, he had also been exposed to multiple military-industrial complexes within the military, witnessing too many kids with engineering talent subdued and numbed at the bottom layers of society.
