Once Ye Jian pulled that trick, students from the other countries immediately replicated her; the National Flag was the faith all soldiers had sworn their life upon, no matter which country the cadets were from, the moment they saw their national flag dancing in the wind, the sense of pride that oozed from the bottom of their hearts, that …

   Right, when the Japanese were about to reach their truck and complete their assembly with everyone onboard, surpassing countless countries’ cadets, Ye Jian suddenly surpassed countless countries’ cadets; then, she also left two Japanese cadets especially renowned for their long-distance sprinting in the dust. This scene happened too quickly; the two Japanese guys only felt a violent gust blowing …

  Before the competition had officially started, sulfur and smoke were already spreading in the air; once the oath-taking was over, it was time for each country to take inventory of their equipment; the cadets from each country walked toward their respective areas and quickly opened their bags and took inventory, starting from large items such as helmets, combat backpack, …
