The Schoolgirl Secret Agent

Chapter 1349: The Tall Silhouette Next to the Tree

Listening to Yun Jian’s tone… it was like it was already decided that she would be going to the hunting school with the high mortality rate.

“Since the hunting school’s establishment, only ten to twenty special forces soldiers from Country Z have been accepted. Those who were eliminated halfway through are basically missing arms and legs—and that’s considered lucky. There are also plenty of cases where corpses were sent back directly from an elimination.”

“Yun Jian, are you really going to a place like that?” Leng Hanzhe had only asked Yun Jian because she was Mu Ying’s friend.

“I have to go,” Yun Jian answered and shifted her gaze to Drillmaster Zhou as everyone else watched her.

Drillmaster Zhou had yet to answer her question just now. He had initially told her that she could go to the hunting school after studying for a year in the elite class, half a semester if it was quicker. Now, however, he said that one had to spend ten to twenty years in the elite class after getting in and that did not guarantee a spot in the hunting school.

“That’s for regular achievers who could make it to the elite class. For you… I’m guessing half a semester could already qualify you to the hunting school!” Drillmaster Zhou told Yun Jian in utmost esteem.

Achievers who could make it to the elite class were definitely the cream of the crop but with Yun Jian in the picture, the word “regular” had to be added as a prefix even when it came to them.

It was right, though. Achievers in the elite class would have to wait ten to twenty years later and see if they had the chance to go to the hunting school representing the country. It was many special forces soldiers’ lifetime dream to be able to train in the hunting school.

Drillmaster Zhou’s accolade of Yun Jian shocked the students who were there. Even Ge Junjian did not expect him to have such high praise for her.

Drillmaster Zhou was a senior instructor and had an international status. What he said would certainly be plausible!

“Drillmaster Zhou, is she… really that good…” Lin Shuya’s reluctant voice rang.

The others who were there had an impulse to slap Lin Shuya. Who did she think she was to doubt what the drillmaster said?

It was then they heard Drillmaster Zhou speak again. As he talked, his gaze on Yun Jian was curious. “She’s most probably much more capable than I’ve imagined. As for how capable she is, you can ask her yourselves.”

Actually, all the instructors there were eager to find out.

Lin Shuya did not expect to receive an answer like this and stomped her way off indignantly.

Yun Jian stayed silent, pretending that she did not hear Drillmaster Zhou’s request, and so the latter did not press for her to say more.

…

The month-long military training finally commenced. The regular military training would start once all the students had erected their tents at the outdoor training campsite.

Chu Ning and the other five members of Team Monarch were taken back to Longmen City by Ge Junjian as well.

Other than the standing position, they practiced basic military marches. It was like military training in regular schools except it took longer. Nothing special happened during training and some twenty days passed in a blink of eyes. It would be the outdoor survival activity the next day.

At night, Yun Jian, Mu Ying and Lin Yuan sat in front of their tents on the grass and watched the moon in the sky. The three of them stayed silent for a while before Mu Ying broke it; it was as if she had hesitated for a long time before she clenched her fists and turned to tell Yun Jian, “Yun Jian, I want to go to the hunting school too!”

After she finished and before Yun Jian could reply, a tall figure rushed up from the side.

It was Leng Hanzhe. He had obviously heard what Mu Ying said and rushed up to grab her wrist, telling her, “No way. Why are you going to a place like that? Besides, your family wouldn’t agree!”

Yun Jian looked down from the sight but just as she turned away, she saw a familiar and tall silhouette standing next to a tree not too far away.
