Kaff and Chen Ying both turned their heads in confusion to look at Su Ming.
“Su Ming, isn’t that a bit too much? You’re putting us on the spot.”
Chen Ying couldn’t help but retort.
“Oh come on, you can’t say that, I’m part of the Thirteenth Legion too.”
Su Ming said with a sly smile.
“Tsk!”
Chen Ying replied disdainfully.
But neither he nor Kaff said much, since Su Ming wasn’t wrong.
At this time, Rhein and the others began recruiting.
“The Thirteenth Legion is recruiting…”
Half an hour passed, and almost no one came to inquire.
Rhein scratched his head and said to Su Ming.
“Su Ming, it’s not working? We can’t seem to recruit anyone, no one is coming over to ask.”
Upon hearing Rhein’s words, Su Ming carefully observed Chen Ying and the others’ recruitment booths.
He found that the people they sent to host were either beauties or handsome guys, they almost brought out the best-looking ones from the team.
“Tsk tsk, beauty is power, it seems this saying is not wrong at all.”
Su Ming said helplessly.
Rhein and the others took a closer look and complained.
“Damn, how despicable!”
“So what do we do?”
…
“Let me think.”
Su Ming replied with a headache.
At this moment, Chen Ying saw Su Ming and his team recruiting for ages without success and cheerfully said.
“How is it, can’t do it, right? I’m telling you, recruiting people isn’t that easy, it requires skill.”
“How about letting us borrow a few of your signboards?”
Su Ming said shamelessly.
“No way, pretend I didn’t say anything.”
Chen Ying shook his head like a rattle drum and quickly shut his mouth.
Just then, Zhang Yi leaned over to Su Ming and said.
“Su Ming, I have a way to recruit people.”
“What way?”
Su Ming asked curiously.
“Don’t ask, just let me do it as I wish, and don’t interfere.”
“Alright.”
“Deal!”
Zhang Yi replied with a grin.
“Yeah!”
Although Su Ming had a bad premonition, he could only grasp at straws for now.
Zhang Yi then picked up a pre-prepared loudspeaker and shouted loudly.
“Everyone, come and see, look and look. Senior Su Ming is recruiting personally. Those who want to traverse the Star Sea with him, come quickly….”
“Zhang Yi, what are you doing?”
Su Ming looked at Zhang Yi, utterly speechless.
Zhang Yi turned to Su Ming and said helplessly.
“Class rep, I had no choice. Other legions are using beauties and handsome guys for recruiting. If we don’t use you as our banner, how can we possibly compete? Besides, we agreed that no matter what I do, you wouldn’t interfere.”
Listening to Zhang Yi’s words, Su Ming felt like he had bitten the bullet and couldn’t argue.
Zhang Yi, regardless of whether Su Ming objected or not, continued shouting through the loudspeaker.
His method proved effective, as soon as students heard the name Su Ming, they flocked over.
When they saw Su Ming, many excitedly shouted.
“Look quickly, isn’t that Su Ming?”
“Yeah, he’s recruiting too!”
“Let’s go, and check it out!”
…
Within a moment, hundreds of people gathered around Su Ming, and the other recruiting points became desolate.
Officers from other legions looked over, bewildered, and said.
“What’s going on, all the people are being taken away.”
“No clue.”
…
At this time, both Kaff and Chen Ying were puzzled, as the students who had been queuing for inquiries all left.
“What on earth? Is this even possible?”
Chen Ying said, dumbfounded.
“Oh no, we forgot about something. Not long ago, Su Ming donated 10 billion Federation Coins at the annual meeting. The juniors and sophomores are very impressed with him and would obviously choose him first.”
Colonel Kaff said in a deep voice.
“That’s bad. Su Ming’s newly formed squad is desperately short of manpower! No amount will be enough for him.”
Chen Ying said in despair, rubbing his forehead.
In fact, Imperial Court Academy only has so many students each year, and many of these students are already earmarked. For instance, Qin Feng and Yu Wei were sought after early on by District Chief Xiao Lie, so there are even fewer who can volunteer for the army.
At this time, Rhein and others were overjoyed, holding forms and conversing with the inquiring students while taking notes.
“Our squad may be newly formed, but don’t worry, with General Su Ming around, not only are the benefits great, but the future is limitless! Look at us, after following General Su Ming, everyone has become a major or captain now.”
…
Ankaga and others couldn’t stop boasting.
“Wow!”
“So awesome!”
…..
The many enthusiastic students present were left dumbfounded.
Standing at the back, Su Ming was so embarrassed that he felt like his toes could dig a three-bedroom apartment into the ground.
But he couldn’t do anything about it, so he had to let Ankaga and the others continue fooling around.
At this moment, a familiar voice called out.
“Hello, I’m a first-year student in the Command System, about to enter the second year, can I sign up?”
Su Ming turned his head instinctively and saw Li Menghan consulting in front of Rhein.
Rhein looked at Li Menghan with some surprise. Although first-years can sign up, very few actually do. Most who enlist now are second-years, so he replied.
“Junior, you can sign up, but are you sure you’ve thought this through? After all, you’re just a first-year?”
“I’ve thought it through, I want to sign up.”
Li Menghan said with determination.
“This….”
Rhein was at a bit of a loss.
At this moment, Su Ming walked over to Rhein and said.
“Rhein, sign her up.”
“Alright.”
Rhein, a bit surprised by Su Ming’s words, immediately complied.
Li Menghan was momentarily stunned and nervously expressed her gratitude.
“Thank you, Senior Su Ming.”
“No need to thank me, welcome to the Thirteenth Legion.”
Su Ming replied with a smile.
