“Truthfully, a wilderness survival experience like this, it’ll be better if there was company. While walking alone, it’s as though there’s nobody else besides you in this whole world, an emptiness that seems like you’re the only person left on earth, and sometimes you’ll have to use up a lot of energy to push those negative thoughts down.”
Seeing him, Ye Jian couldn’t help but speak out loud her thoughts about her fifteen days of wilderness survival training. Xia Jinyuan did not interrupt her; his handsome face wore a warming smile as he silently listened to her every word.
Spending fifteen days alone in wilderness survival training, the only thing that was tempered wasn’t just a person’s stamina; the more important thing was to temper their psychological quality.
She’s been stressed for too long and needed to let it out, resolving all those negative thoughts and stress through talking.
Carving away the bad parts and leaving behind the right parts, in this way, it’ll achieve the effect of training her mind.
Currently, she has just started the beginner training for her mind. In the future, there will be training that are much crueler, such as escaping and resistance training segments; this includes escape, camouflage techniques, and resistance after being taken captive.
Xia Jinyuan’s pupils were warmer than the sunlight; there was a softening quality in them, allowing Ye Jian to speak out her mind and telling him everything about her psychological journey in the past fifteen days.
Little fox, extreme wilderness survival training is essential mental training for a special forces soldier. This was to set up a good foundation for the upcoming mental training that’s practically cruel.
Motivation, sense of responsibility, maturity and stability, teamwork spirit, intelligence, physical adaptability, trustworthiness. How high her mental tolerance can be, how good her ability to escape will be… all of those were things that Ye Jian needed to experience.
“Sometimes, I really didn’t dare to overthink, I was afraid I’ll really get lost in the woods, so I sat there and just decided to recite the creeds and slogans of each country’s special forces unit.” When talking about that, Ye Jian’s eyes smiled a little, her bright black pupils revealed a glimmer of craftiness, “Not to mention, it actually worked!”
“These creeds and beliefs are powerful psychological weapons for special forces soldiers. They’re used in training to resist negative thoughts, it’s also similar when I put them to use, but this is what I thought about. If the special forces of other countries can do it, then how can I, as a member of China’s special forces, be worse than them? I must succeed! There is no way!”
Xia Jinyuan grasped her hand, her tactical gloves were worn out, her wilderness survival training was five days longer than male soldiers, and she had pulled through it alone. That was more than enough to surprise the military.
“You did really well, and very normally completed your own mental construct alone. Ye Jian, your excellence is visible to everyone.” At this moment, Xia Jinyuan did not point out her inadequate points. It wasn’t time for him to criticize her inadequate points yet; he must let her finish saying everything she had on her mind.
Currently, only the military had documents of Ye Jian’s training; they had yet to record and document her subtle performances. The moment she enters military school, all of her training will become systematic; some of the more pivotal training will make detailed records of what expressions she had at the time, and how she acted, clearly and concisely.
Physical fitness, CQC, marksmanship, endurance, perseverance, disguise, he was a hundred percent certain Ye Jian would pass these aspects, but the important thing was training on her psychological qualities. Next up, he’ll advise Uncle Chen to improve Ye Jian’s psychological training.
Ye Jian turned her head, looking at the handsome face that was familiar and made her feel safe; she smiled brightly: “I haven’t talked to anyone for almost ten days when I saw you, I was really happy, very very happy. I didn’t feel like I had anything to say, but after I saw Captain Xia, I don’t know why I couldn’t hold it in and just blurted everything out like I can’t control my mouth.”
