Chapter 36

"...Now, please let the President announce the 'Best Freshman' awards!"

Yu Qingyan smiled as he took the electronic card from Furika, his eyes slightly lowered, his fingers gently rubbing the dull edge. The rounded nails glistened with a beautiful sheen, and his smile grew even more tender.

"I announce that the ten 'Best Freshmen' of this comprehensive ability test special training competition are..."

For each name Yu Qingyan read, he paused slightly, followed by waves of enthusiastic applause from the audience, rolling in like endless waves, grand and magnificent.

"...Mecha Design major Yang An. Congratulations to these ten students." When Yu Qingyan pronounced those two words, his tongue lightly touched the edge of his teeth, the fleeting contact creating a touch of lingering affection.

He looked up, scanning the dense crowd, and in a few seconds, found the young man's figure. An indescribable pleasure spread to his heart, and when their eyes met, he silently said: Congratulations, Xiao An.

Below the stage

"Xiao An!! You won the award!!!" Chang Ningxi's eyes sparkled, even more excited than the recipient himself. He leaped from his seat, reaching out to pull the beta up, preparing to hug him.

Yang An's face was blank, his mind buzzing, like a stuck spring. He moved stiffly, following Chang Ningxi's excited gestures, still in a daze.

"Xiao An, congratulations!" Chang Ningxi, smiling broadly, seemed even happier than if he had won the award himself.

"Um... thank you," Yang An said slowly, still processing the congratulatory hug. He didn't even have time to think about the previous intention or check if there were any changes to the small text above Alpha's head, before being pushed out of the narrow seat aisle.

Yang An walked on the red carpet sprinkled with gold flakes, his handsome face calm and composed, his expression tranquil.

His pace was steady, his tall figure graceful, and his demeanor particularly serene. He attracted many gazes, with some expressing awe and curiosity, whispering among themselves.

But no one knew the turbulent waves inside the beta behind the calm exterior.

Oh my, this is unbelievable! How could this happen?!

Given his score and ranking in the first segment and the average scores of previous years' second segments, he should have needed double the points in the second segment to climb from the middle rank to the top ten.

How did he make it to the top ten???

Or is it that... Yang An thought, others had low scores in the second segment?

Hmm, it's possible. Yang An sighed. Seriously, folks, did you all perform so poorly?

"Congratulations, Yang An. The teacher said that topic was perfect for you." Furika, with her wavy hair cascading to her waist, tied loosely with a daisy-yellow scarf, had a few strands floating on her fair neck, adding a touch of playful charm.

She stood on stage, smiling graciously, and extended her hand elegantly. "The teacher has high hopes for you~"

Yang An's eyelid twitched, and the long-forgotten bad premonition resurfaced. He hesitated for a moment, giving Furika's hand a tentative shake without touching any skin, then quickly withdrew his hand.

Furika's gaze became profound and thoughtful, seemingly intrigued by something.

"Ms. Furika, may I ask if the second segment scores can be reviewed later?" Yang An leaned in slightly, asking softly.
