With the steel forest of modern facilities as the backdrop, everyone in the high-speed rail station seemed to be in a hurry.


After verifying his ticket, Wu Mo walked out of the high-speed rail station.


As he looked at the blue sky and the surrounding buildings, Wu Mo took a deep breath and muttered in his heart, ‘This place that has accompanied me for three years feels very familiar.’


He wiped his face and strode outside.


There was a lot of traffic outside the station, and the car horns were noisy. He got into a cab and went directly to Golden Age Hotel.


Golden Age Hotel was located in the central area of Shanglin City, less than 10 kilometers away from the Divine Arms Academy. It would take about 20 minutes to set off from the high-speed rail station.


Along the way, he saw many landmark buildings, as well as various major blacksmith inst.i.tutions that carried the dreams of young people.


The central area of Shanglin City was extremely lively. Although it was only a small prefecture-level city, it had the same amount of educational resources as a base city.


It did not take long for the car to enter a commercial street.


Golden Age Hotel was one of the few four-star hotels in Shanglin City. It was located in a prime location in the business district.


Its restaurant was a typical representative of Chinese cuisine. The chefs inside had decades of Chinese cooking skills, and it was an excellent place for guests to gather.


Soon, the car stopped outside the gate of Golden Age Restaurant.


Wu mo paid and got out of the car. He was immediately attracted by the front of the restaurant.


It was a six-story building built in the Chinese style. The outer wall was made of alternating pink and white stone bricks, while the large arched door in the middle was gilded with rose gold, making it look luxurious. The green plaque on the arched door had the words “dragon and phoenix dance” written on it!


The parking lot around the hotel was already filled with all kinds of high-end brands.


Wu Mo took a look at the time and realized that it was almost 11 o’clock, so he quickened his pace.


As he approached the gate, he saw a few young people standing outside the door, seemingly discussing something. Their faces looked familiar.


They appeared to be students from the Divine Arms Academy.


At the same time, countless students who had graduated from the Divine Arms Academy were raising their cups in welcome in Golden Age Restaurant’s hall.


The lights were as bright as day in the Chinese-style hall. In addition, the surrounding decorations were resplendent, and the crystal lamp above was shining with dazzling light.


There were many sets of high-end tables, as well as chairs on both sides of the hall, and there were countless delicacies such as desserts, cakes, red wine, and barbecued meat.


Everyone gathered in groups of twos and threes while they talked with fervor and a.s.surance.


At that point, a majority of the students from the Divine Arms Academy were already there. Everyone was in full swing, chatting and smiling at each other from time to time. They raised the atmosphere in the entire hall to a fever pitch.


“Sigh, it’s all thanks to the academy that we’re able to gather together a few months after graduation. No matter what, we should at least have a toast with Professor Zhou Yan, right? ”


Amid the people, a rough-looking young man in a dark blue suit raised his gla.s.s and spoke to the crowd.


Those around him immediately cheered and raised their gla.s.ses.


“Brother Qian is right. It’s fate that we can meet again after graduation.”


“Come, come, let’s have a toast.”


Everyone’s gazes were focused on Professor Zhou Yan, who was wearing a slim-cut black suit. She smiled and said, “As long as everyone is happy, that’s all that matters. To see you graduate and become pillars of society is also something that I should be proud of as a teacher.


Upon hearing Professor Zhou Yan’s words, everyone immediately toasted. Their laughter and cheers almost shook the ceiling of the hall.


“Alright, there are some things that Princ.i.p.al Qiu needs to deal with. I’ll take my leave first.”


Everyone nodded. “It’s alright, Professor. You can carry on with your work. Just come back before the party ends!” they said.


After they watched their professor leave, everyone chatted more freely, almost to the point where there was nothing they did not want to talk about.


“Brother Qian, I heard that Tesla hired you as the head of its Research and Development Department to specially train freshmen who enter the organization. How’s work been?” someone asked the young man in the dark blue suit curiously.


The latter was called “Brother Qian” because he was one of the outstanding people who had attracted a lot of attention during the graduation design a.s.sessment, Qian Rong.


With a long sword made of rebar, Qian Rong had pa.s.sed all the tests and achieved dazzling results.


After that, he was recruited into the company by the famous IoT company Tesla with a monthly salary of ¥60,000. He became the head of the R&D Department as soon as he entered the company, and he managed dozens of new trainees.


As such, he was the center of attention at the cla.s.s reunion.


Not only did Qian Rong have a great position, but he was also the typical rich child of a family. His future was limitless, and there would certainly be no harm if one could be on good terms with him.


Seeing the puzzled looks from the crowd, Qian Rong chuckled and said, “Sigh, it’s nothing. I’m just the head of the Research and Development Department. My daily task is to manage disobedient trainees. My salary’s only ¥60,000. It’s not much.”


Hearing Qian Rong’s rather casual tone, everyone could not help but be surprised.


As expected of a rich second-generation, he did not even care about a monthly salary of ¥60,000.


“Hey, Brother Qian, what are you saying? You know that the employment situation this year is abysmal. Most people can’t find a suitable job. It’s amazing that you can get a monthly salary of ¥60,000!


A young man at the side immediately gave him a thumbs-up.


No one could say anything, but he was telling the truth about the current economic situation.


The employment rate of many academies in Shanglin City did not even reach 60%.


Many graduates with good grades could only get incredibly ordinary jobs.


As for the students who had just pa.s.sed, there was no need to mention them. In the past few months, no company had been willing to give them an offer.


Only the Divine Arms Academy, which possessed the best educational resources, had an employment rate of 86%, which was a rather ideal figure.


Everyone relied on their background from the Divine Arms Academy, and most of them found relatively good jobs.


For example, in previous years, Qian Rong would not have gotten such a good position so early on even if he could enter the top 100 IoT companies.


“Sigh, it’s just alright. It’s not as good as you say.”


Qian Rong laughed and turned to look at Tang Mu, who was once Cla.s.s 1’s monitor.


“Look at Little Tang. Although his graduation results were a little bad, he’s now a consultant at a treasury,” Qian Rong said with a smile.


When Tang Mu heard this, he sensed an underlying meaning in his words.


Compared with Qian Rong’s managerial position in a large factory, he was just an advisor. Not only was his salary not as high, but his position was also not as prestigious. Although it was not bad compared to others, he felt like he was being mocked as he listened to Qian Rong.
