Chapter 335
Jillian was over the moon; having connections really did make life easier, sparing them the hassle of queuing up.
“I know a senior on the student council, and I managed to snag two sets for us,” she said, walking over with three sets of training uniforms in her hands.
“But there are four of us in the dorm, why only three sets?” Cynthia blinked in confusion. “No worries, though. We’ve already got our training kits. Flora’s friend works there.”
Jillian’s face darkened at the sight of their uniforms, clearly annoyed, her eyes narrowing as she glanced at Kaylee.
Back in the dorm with their uniforms, they barely had time to sit down before there was a knock on the door.
Jillian, being closest, opened it right away.
Several seniors stood outside, with Yvonne, the vice president of the student
council, front and center.
“Yvonne, what brings you here?” Jillian asked. Ever since she’d gotten into the University of Maple Grove, she’d been all about making connections with the upperclassmen.
Yvonne looked at Jillian, trying to place her. After glancing at the info on the door, she hesitated, “Jillian?”
Jillian’s eyes lit up with excitement. “Yes, that’s me!”
Yvonne greeted her politely and then asked, “Is Flora here?”
When she mentioned Flora, her eyes lit up, a stark contrast to her casual
attitude towards Jillian.
Jillian pursed her lips, then nodded. “Yeah, she’s here.”
Turning inside, she called out, “Flora, someone’s here to see you!”
Flora, who was getting some water, walked over to the door, looking puzzled.

The seniors‘ eyes lit up with admiration when they saw Flora. Her pictures online didn’t do her justice; she was stunning in real life.
“Hi, Flora, I’m Yvonne, the vice president of the student council. Interested in joining us?” Yvonne asked.
“No, thank you,” Flora replied coolly.
Yvonne was taken aback by the swift rejection and frowned, but quickly forced
a smile. “No worries. You’re new here and probably don’t know much about the student council yet. Here’s our brochure, and the last page has our contact info. Our recruitment meeting is on the 20th, after your training. Maybe you could come check it out.”
Flora nodded.
“By the way, your training starts tomorrow. Got everything you need?” Yvonne handed Flora a box. “Here are some essentials. I survived last year’s brutal training thanks to these. I had some leftovers, and now they’re all yours.”
“Thank you,” Flora said politely, taking the box.
Yvonne smiled and left.
Just as Flora was about to close the door, another group approached.
“Is Flora here? I’m from the Associations Union recruitment department…”
“Flora, interested in learning about the Medical Society?”
“I

Within half an hour, a stream of clubs and student organizations had come knocking, overwhelming Flora.
She grabbed a piece of paper, wrote ‘No Disturbances, Please‘ on it, and stuck it on the door, finally getting some peace.
Cynthia looked on enviously. “This must be the perks of being a top national
scorer.”
Eilies stayed expressionless, busying herself with her stuff.
Jillian sat on her chair, her eyes filled with envy.
Cynthia, ever the chatterbox, quickly brought up another topic. “Hey, did you

guys hear? The University of Maple Grove’s training has always been on campus, but this year, they’re taking us to an off–site base for intensive training! Ever heard of Empire Base? It’s the largest training facility in the country, with a global reach. Even national elites show them respect!”
“They say they’re here to scout talent this time. If anyone stands out, they could get recruited into Empire Base!”
