Chapter 88: 092 There is only one rule: survival of the fittest!
Even if the cost of failure... is death?
Lu Ziqing’s statement fell lightly, but it sent shivers down the soldiers’ spines.
However, after only a moment of shock, they began to analyze the situation rationally...
Heh, it couldn’t be that serious... They were just new recruits who had enrolled this year. How could the superior officers really put them through an assessment as if they were actual soldiers? Talking about death being the cost must be just a way to scare them!
This was the thought process of not a few among the new recruits.
Lu Ziqing’s sharp gaze swept across the entire training field, among the neatly organized and quiet ranks where every single movement of any person was clearly visible to him!
And so, he saw distinctly, the moment his words ended, a tall, slender woman with a pretty face from the first row of the second squad took a decisive and firm step forward, standing upright with an erect posture.
That was Song Lili.
A woman eyed by the President.
Lu Ziqing felt a rush of blood to his chest, exhilarated by her determination but also worried about it...
For a moment, he found himself hoping she would step back.
The road ahead is treacherous. Are you a fearless newborn calf, Song Lili, or do you know of the thorns ahead and still choose to charge forward bravely?
Following swiftly after Song Lili was her squadmate Luo Shengnan.
The whole training field started to stir...
"So many people... Commander? Are the students this year all so fearless? Are they all ready to risk their lives?"
Qi Yong whispered to Lu Ziqing from behind.
Lu Ziqing, seeing that the training field had settled down again, those who were going to step forward had done so, and those hesitating to step back had withdrawn.
Not too bad, one-third of them.
Just as he was about to speak, there was movement again from the second squad, first rank. Lu Ziqing narrowed his eyes—it was... Lin Xinglan?
She ambled out of the ranks and stood beside Song Lili.
Lu Ziqing withdrew his gaze and cleared his throat.
"Everyone’s got courage. Instructors of each class, please count the heads and report back the numbers after the training concludes."
"Yes!"
"The selection process has only one rule: survival of the fittest. The specific methods of selection will be notified to you. Also, later on, your instructors will bring you a risk consent form to sign. If you are injured, disabled, or even die during the selection, it is your own responsibility and you must accept the outcome without conditions."
"..."
Some of the new recruits became unsettled.
Lu Ziqing just chuckled inwardly.
"Continue your training, everyone."
After speaking, Lu Ziqing descended from the platform with his men; as soon as their feet left the training ground, a number of individuals chose to give up.
The instructors and supervisors were used to this and didn’t comment.
Gao Jun noticed that the proportion of female students in his class participating in the selection was slightly lower; fifteen had stood out, and after Lu Ziqing left, six gave up.
Luo Shengnan and Song Lili were the quickest to step out and stood the most resolute.
Gao Jun glanced at those who had stepped forward. Most of them were not far from what he had anticipated, except... Lin Xinglan.
This girl, who had recently become the center of everyone’s talk, had shed her previous arrogance and fragile demeanor, becoming somewhat low-key and silent, and even showed signs of quiet dedication.
Lin Xinglan felt uneasy inside, especially after hearing Lu Ziqing mention having to sign an informed consent form. Her legs turned a bit weak, yet there was Song Lili beside her, standing calmly with her hands clasped behind her back, immovable...
She tugged gently at Song Lili’s sleeve.
"This is so dangerous. Should we reconsider?"
