Chapter 579: Chapter 579: Yue Xiaohu, Do You Want to Join the Army in the Future?

Company Commander Zhang saw Yue Xiaohu’s fearless little tiger demeanor and found it somewhat amusing.

"Then try running from here to that wall and flipping back. If you can do it within thirty seconds, I’ll half believe you."

Yue Xiaohu immediately nodded, "Okay!"

"3, 2, 1..."

As soon as Company Commander Zhang finished speaking, Yue Xiaohu burst out like an arrow released from its bow.

His movements were so fast that even Company Commander Zhang, who had intended to see a joke, tightened his expression.

Yue Xiaohu quickly reached the wall.

He squatted and jumped fiercely, barely touching the top of the wall with his feet, just pushing himself over with his hands nimbly.

He paused for barely two seconds before flipping back over with the same technique.

Yue Xiaohu dusted off his hands, "Commander, how many seconds?"

Company Commander Zhang narrowed his eyes without speaking, only staring at Yue Xiaohu.

Feeling unnerved under the gaze, Yue Xiaohu looked at his sister with a pitiful expression.

Yue Qingqing nodded soothingly at him, sensing that Company Commander Zhang harbored no ill will.

After a while, a soldier carrying two pieces of white paper walked over.

But Company Commander Zhang didn’t immediately ask Yue Xiaohu to make a footprint. He pondered for a moment, then said, "You spar with him for a couple of rounds."

The soldier was puzzled.

Myself?

With Yue Xiaohu?

Isn’t that bullying?

But as a soldier who prioritizes following orders, he didn’t ask any questions and rolled up his sleeves, walking up to Yue Xiaohu and saluting.

Yue Xiaohu began to get excited again, his face filled with eager anticipation.

The soldier thought this would be the easiest bout he’d ever faced.

But he was wrong.

Yue Xiaohu was much more skilled than he had imagined.

The soldier was caught off guard and took a punch to the shoulder, feeling a dull pain in his bones.

Not daring to take Yue Xiaohu lightly anymore, he began to spar with him in earnest.

For a moment, the only sounds were the clashing of their fists and kicks, as if someone had drawn a circle around them, with neither willing to step back an inch.

Company Commander Zhang’s brows didn’t lift, but his eyes glowed with intensity.

Three minutes passed, and Yue Xiaohu was breathing heavily, tasting blood in his mouth.

But he was still persevering, teeth gritted.

He had been practicing martial arts for a long time, but this was the first time he had sparred like this with someone.

Fist to flesh, it hurt, but it was exhilarating.

"Enough!" Company Commander Zhang said abruptly.

The man facing Yue Xiaohu immediately pulled back his fists, looking at Yue Xiaohu with a completely different expression than before.

Company Commander Zhang deliberately asked Yue Xiaohu, "Do you still think you can knock someone out and run away?"

He didn’t mention that the man by his side was already one of the outstanding soldiers in the camp, someone who could bring back good rankings from the annual competitions, a soldier everyone admired.

If the person who had come last night was Yue Xiaohu, and he suddenly encountered a patrolling soldier, it’s possible he really could have knocked someone out.

But Yue Xiaohu was unaware of this fact and just hung his head in shame, "I was talking big."

He had thought that after many years of training, he might match up to these soldiers who trained every day, but it seemed he still fell short.

Yue Xiaohu still felt a small surge of defiance, "But if it were my sister, she could definitely beat you."

"Your sister?" Company Commander Zhang’s gaze shifted to Yue Qingqing.

This overly beautiful girl had been quiet since she came in, not drawing much attention.

But hearing the tone of Yue Xiaohu, she seemed even more formidable?

Company Commander Zhang didn’t want to believe it, but judging from Yue Xiaohu’s performance earlier, the boy seemed honest and not one to make baseless claims.

His gaze at Yue Qingqing became more evaluative.

Yue Qingqing stood gracefully, letting him look as she smiled slightly, "Company Commander Zhang, may I inquire if my brother’s suspicion can be cleared now?"

Only then did Company Commander Zhang realize that he hadn’t called this kid over today to watch him fight.

His eagerness to see action had nearly distracted him from the main issue.

"Leave a footprint."

Yue Xiaohu picked up the white paper, pressed his foot onto it, and handed it to Company Commander Zhang.

Company Commander Zhang inspected it carefully. All other footprints had already found their owners, and the remaining pair was clearly larger than Yue Xiaohu’s, not matching his body size either.

Considering Yue Xiaohu’s skills and performance, his suspicion could be ruled out.

Company Commander Zhang ordered his men to escort the two young ones back home.

As Yue Xiaohu was about to leave, Company Commander Zhang raised an eyebrow and seemed to ask casually.

"Yue Xiaohu, do you want to join the army in the future?"
