Yan Chengwu received instructions from his superiors and returned to the training ground.

This time, he corrected his attitude and diligently executed the training tasks.

Meanwhile, Long Xia and his group also received a warning from Mad Blade.

Both parties restrained themselves a bit, and the regular training tasks proceeded in an orderly fashion.

When it comes to disassembling and assembling firearms, the guys from the Changfeng Cooking Class were all adept hands.

Each one of them applied to take the assessment early and passed the task assessment smoothly.

As per the regulations, soldiers who completed the assessment tasks were allowed to rest temporarily in the designated area.

Long Xia, Three Swords, and Ghost Wolf had nothing else to do, so they sat in the rest area and watched the Elite Special Forces Soldiers undergoing physical training.

A ten-kilometer cross-country run, this kind of physical training wasn't much of a big deal for these Elite Special Forces Soldiers.

And watching the Mulan Team's female Special Forces Soldiers running smartly and spiritedly was also a kind of pleasure.

A few guys sat around idle and listless, thinking random thoughts, and as they watched, they noticed some problems.

The soldiers from the eight Elite Special Forces Squads had very good military qualities and were full of energy.

But this kind of strenuous physical training still revealed individual differences.

Very quickly, some Special Forces Soldiers who lacked physical strength started to fall behind.

Certain connected individuals, naturally, lagged even further behind.

This batch of connected soldiers had significant connections.

They didn't expect to be selected by the higher-level Special Forces during the special training; they just came to add a touch of gold to their resumes so that they could get promoted after going back.

How could these people have imagined that Special Forces training would be so cruel?

Under the scorching sun, as soon as the instructor gave the order, it was a ten-kilometer run.

About seven or eight connected soldiers lagged far behind the team.

Among them were two female soldiers who were crying while running, and eventually they simply broke into loud wails.

These two female soldiers belonged to the Mulan Team and had entered the ranks through special channels.

Their physical fitness couldn't keep up, nor did they have the willpower to persist.

However, military orders were like mountains; since the instructor had issued the training task, even if they cried to death, they had to complete it.

So, the two female soldiers ran and cried their eyes out.

The bunch of languid rascals from the Changfeng Cooking Class burst into laughter at the sight.

Ghost Wolf and a few guys with cold dispositions were one thing.

But Shen Feng, Long Xia, and a few other bastards laughed until their eyes rolled back, rolling around in the rest area.

They seemed determined not to stop until they laughed someone to death.

The instructor of the Mulan Special Combat Squad saw the two female soldiers in her charge embarrassing themselves and couldn't help but grimace.

The other instructors, seeing their soldiers falling behind and being laughed at by a bunch of Cook Soldiers, also lost face.

The instructor of the Mulan Special Combat Squad rushed to the rear of the two female soldiers and barked sharply.

"Run faster, look at what a laughing stock you've become!"

The two female soldiers were already exhausted but clenched their teeth and persisted.

Drenched in sweat, they glanced at the rest area, only to see a group of Pig-Raising Soldiers laughing uproariously, which made them grind their teeth in frustration.

A bunch of schadenfreude bastards!

Under the notion of gaining courage from shame, the two female soldiers, mocked by the members of the Cooking Class, were suddenly spurred on by a burst of valor.

They rallied and surged to the finish line, nearly collapsing from the exertion.

This scene was witnessed by the female Special Forces of the Mulan Special Combat Squad.

They despised the group of unscrupulous Pig-Raising Soldiers.

The physical fitness of female Special Forces Soldiers was originally slightly weaker than that of male Special Forces Soldiers.

But this didn't mean that the combat prowess of female Special Forces Soldiers was inferior to that of male Special Forces Soldiers.

In fact, the combat strength of the Mulan Special Combat Squad was definitely among the top five in the eight elite combat forces.

The team captain of the Mulan Special Combat Squad, Chen Ruiling, was a tough character.

Though she was not satisfied with the two female Special Forces Soldiers holding back the Mulan Special Combat Squad, she absolutely wouldn't allow a bunch of Pig-Raising Soldiers to mock her comrades.

Coincidentally, the captains of the other three special combat squads also detested this group of rowdy Pig-Raising Soldiers.

Following the ten-kilometer physical training, there was a twenty-minute rest period.

Long Xia and his group, having completed their assessment early, had already been resting for a whole hour.

Everyone was bored and idly chatting when they saw a tall, spirited female soldier.

She led five or six Special Forces soldiers and surrounded them.

This group of people, men and women, were all skilled combat experts from the Special Forces.

They were all intent on teaching this batch of ignorant Pig-Raising Soldiers a harsh lesson.

Long Xia, Three Swords, Ghost Wolf, and the rest of those guys were just hanging around with nothing to do.

They weren't too impressed with this group of Elite Special Forces Soldiers either.

A few of them watched as two tearful female Special Forces soldiers followed behind the group that was closing in.

These two women were none other than the Special Forces soldiers who had just been crying while running.

Everyone immediately burst into another round of laughter.

Chen Ruiling was fuming with anger, stepping forward only to be blocked by another instructor with a formidable build.

This instructor's name was Li Song.

During the previous long-distance training, one of his soldiers, who had connections, had also caused him to lose face.

So now, Li Song and Chen Ruiling were looking for trouble with the Cook Soldiers.

Li Song stopped Chen Ruiling and took two steps forward.

He looked down arrogantly at Long Xia and the others, "So, you think our training is funny?"

Three Swords, always composed, was also provoked by Li Song's challenging tone.

He smiled faintly, "The soldiers are tired from training; isn't it okay for them to enjoy a joke to lighten the mood?"

Li Song sneered.

"Hmph, I suppose in your eyes, our soldiers are the best joke, aren't they?"

"One can make jokes about others, but you should also consider your own capabilities."

Li Song didn't believe Three Swords's words and spoke with unveiled sharpness.

At this, Long Xia and his group of troublemakers became unhappy and started clamoring.

"What abilities do we have? Can't we laugh if we're not capable?"

"Really strange, can't I laugh if I like to? Who says it's not okay?"

"Such arrogance. Elite Special Forces Soldiers are something, huh? Acting really cocky."

...

Three Swords's gaze turned very cold.

"Comrade brother, did you hear that?"

"I don't know if your soldiers are jokes, but for you to say such things, that in itself is a joke."

Li Song smiled dismissively, full of contempt.

"My meaning is quite clear."

"Our soldiers might not have completed their training tasks well, but they are not something you Pig-Raising Soldiers can laugh about."

To the Cooking Class soldiers, Pig-Raising Soldiers was a highly offensive term.

As soon as Li Song's words came out, Long Xia and the others immediately jumped to their feet, rubbing their hands eagerly and bursting with protests.

"What's wrong with being Pig-Raising Soldiers? Aren't Pig-Raising Soldiers still soldiers?"

"Damn it, I might raise pigs, but I can sure beat pigs too."

"Let's see who's the mule and who's the horse by taking them out for a walk. Whoever has the bigger fist will have the final say."

...

Li Song was waiting for just these words.

He sneered and assumed the starting stance of military boxing.

"You're right, let me show you the difference between Pig-Raising Soldiers and Special Forces!"

Li Song's words were full of bluster.

The Special Forces soldiers behind him all cheered him on.

"Well said, Pig-Raising Soldiers should stick to raising pigs instead of making an unnecessary fuss."

"Instructor Li, give them a good lesson. If they want to mock us, they'll have to have the strength to back it up."

...

Ghost Wolf, Shen Feng, and Lonely Madman all stepped forward, wanting to have a go at Li Song.

Long Xia, spry as a Black Panther, sprang out: "Let me try."
