The Pseudo-Human Academy: Starting with a Bricklayer Personality

With the matter resolved satisfactorily, Xu Feng concealed the lingering sharpness in his eyes and led Hong Xia towards the headquarters of the End Guild.

The headquarters of this association, which belongs to the state-owned assets, is actually a skyscraper that rises from the ground, and its grandeur is astonishing.

The exterior walls are made of transparent floor-to-ceiling glass, which reflects a cool luster under the sunlight, while the interior decoration is luxurious, comparable to a top five-star hotel.

The marble floor is so shiny it reflects your image, and a faint fragrance permeates the air; every detail exudes a profound cultural heritage.

Xu Feng led Hong Xia to the front desk, where a sweet-looking young girl was on duty.

The moment she glanced up and saw Xu Feng, her pupils lit up as if she had met her long-awaited idol.

She immediately strode around the front desk, excitedly reached out and grabbed his wrist, her voice trembling uncontrollably:

"Blood, Bloody Gentleman! I'm your fan! Could... could you please give me your autograph?"

Xu Feng smiled faintly, his tone gentle yet measured, and made a shushing gesture:

"Of course. By the way, could you help me make an appointment? I'd like to recommend a friend to join the End of Time Guild, preferably with an S-rank visa."

As soon as he finished speaking, he took the paper and pen the girl handed him, and with a slight twist of his wrist, the four characters "Bloody Gentleman" leaped onto the paper in a flamboyant style.

The strokes are sharp and unrestrained, and the end is adorned with a string of English cursive signatures that resemble dark patterns, exuding a natural and unrestrained flamboyance.

Upon hearing this, Hongxia's pupils contracted slightly, and her heart skipped a beat.

Could the person Captain Xu mentioned who made the introduction be her?

The moment the thought crossed her mind, she couldn't help but lower her head, her cheeks instantly flushing red, and she became somewhat hesitant.

She shook her head violently.

Hongxia, Hongxia, what are you thinking about?

With your timid and introverted nature, how could you possibly be worthy of a top-tier guild like the End Guild, let alone an S-level contract?

Surely the friend recommended by the Bloody Gentleman must be someone else?

How could it be her?

The receptionist handed over the autograph, her face beaming with joy, and nodded quickly in response:

"The referral is no problem, but only the guild leader and vice-leader have the authority to approve S-level contracts. No one else in the guild has that authority. I'll contact them and make an appointment for you right now!"

Xu Feng and Hong Xia sat quietly on the leather sofa in the lobby, waiting. About half an hour later, the receptionist rushed over to inform them that the chairman had agreed to the meeting.

The two took the elevator directly to the top floor. The elevator doors slowly opened, and at the end of the corridor was the magnificent door to the president's office.

Xu Feng raised his hand and knocked lightly twice. Without waiting for a response from inside, he pushed the door open and entered.

"Oh my gosh—!"

Xu Feng looked up and was immediately stunned.

Lian Hongying was reclining on an incredibly elegant leather chair, wearing a crisp white shirt and a well-tailored guild uniform over it, the collar slightly open, revealing her delicate collarbone.

She had a pink lollipop dangling from her mouth, and her slender ankles, clad in shiny round-toed leather shoes, were resting on the back of a handsome man with long, flowing hair, her posture both languid and exuding an indescribable domineering air.

The battle cry just now must have come from the long-haired handsome man.

Xu Feng was completely dumbfounded. He started his attack with a battle cry, but how the hell was he supposed to defend against that?

"Oh! Bloody Gentleman, you finally remembered to make a trip to headquarters!"

Lian Hongying stepped on the long-haired man beneath her, elegantly and domineeringly changing her posture, crossing her legs and raising them in a cross-legged position, her skirt swaying slightly with the movement, and the pink lollipop in her mouth still gently spinning.

Xu Feng met her assertive gaze without flinching, a calm smile playing on his lips as he spoke in a composed tone:

"I've come to headquarters for two things. First, to retrieve the artifact I promised as a guild member; second, I'd like to introduce someone to you, and I hope you can offer her an S-rank contract."

"Oh ho? You've got quite the nerve!"

Lian Hongying rested her chin on her hand, her slender fingertips lightly tapping the armrest, her eyes filled with a keenly scrutinizing gaze.

"S-rank visa? Bloody Gentleman, according to the rules of our End Guild, only Chosen Ones with the potential to reach 2,000 ladder points are qualified to receive an S-rank visa. It's not something that just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can get."

She paused, her gaze sweeping over Xu Feng's side, and slowly added:

"Tell me, who are you going to introduce?"

"This is the little girl next to me, Hongxia." Xu Feng stepped aside to make room for Hongxia, his tone still calm.

"Huh?!"

Hongxia suddenly looked up, her almond-shaped eyes wide open, her cheeks instantly turning as red as if they had been smeared with rouge, and even the roots of her ears felt hot.

She couldn't believe that the person Captain Xu had recommended was really her.

She was an unknown player with less than 50 points on the ladder, yet she was recommended to compete for an S-level contract?

The enormous impact left her head buzzing, and for a moment she was at a loss, her fingers nervously clenching the hem of her clothes.

Lian Hongying narrowed her eyes, carefully examining Hong Xia, who was hiding behind Xu Feng and looking slightly timid. She pursed her lips and muttered:

"What is she? She's just an ordinary little girl you could see anywhere. And with such a timid personality, she's definitely not cut out for the top ranks. If she were to join a guild, she'd only be good at logistics and odd jobs at best."

She withdrew her gaze and looked back at Xu Feng, her tone tinged with amusement:

"Bloody Gentleman, what's your reason for recommending her? It can't be based on personal relationships, can it? In the End Guild, strength is paramount, and I won't give an S-signing to a little girl who seems to have no potential whatsoever."

Xu Feng pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke:

"Does her ability to teleport count as a reason?"

"That counts." Lian Hongying nodded, but her tone remained firm. "But at most, she'd get an A-level contract, which isn't even enough for an S-level visa. This girl is too timid."

As soon as she finished speaking, she looked at Hongxia, her tone forceful:

"Little girl, send me your panel so I can take a look."

Hongxia nodded timidly, her fingertips trembling as she brought up her personal panel and sent it to Lian Hongying.

Originally, Lian Hongying was somewhat nonchalant, but after seeing the information on the panel, her pupils suddenly contracted.

The lollipop in her mouth almost fell out, and she suddenly sat up straight in her chair, exclaiming in surprise:

"You little brat! Your ladder points aren't even sixty, yet you're already level five? And you even have a talent?!"

"hiss--!"

She gasped, her eyes filled with disbelief:

"Where did you farm those monsters? Four points in total attributes? That's an attribute value that only a Chosen One with thousands of points could achieve! And your Bizarre Transformation talent... that's a bit too awesome!"

Xu Feng's smile remained calm as he met Lian Hongying's gaze with a composed expression, his tone unhurried:

"Can you sign S now?"
