Get Spoiled after Travelling into A Novel

Chapter 285 Live Training Exercise

“Who do you think you're talking to?” Xavier nearly shouted, his voice booming.

Being a second lieutenant, Xavier was usually calm. His sudden fury took the crew-cut man by surprise.

“Lieutenant, | was just

Xavier quickly realised he had possibly overreacted, calming his tone while maintaining seriousness. “She’s not

the right fit. We need to look for someone else.”

The man with the crew cut felt a bit miffed. “And why’s that?”

After an extensive search, they identified two potential recruits, yet both seemed unsuitable.

It was understandable that the grandson of Commander Scathing wasn’t considered because of his unique

circumstances. But why dismiss the girl, especially when her skills were superior to the commander's grandson?

She was perfect to follow in the footsteps of a legendary marksman!

Xavier's mind was a whirlwind, struggling with where to even start.

While he felt bold enough to stir strouble for Stephanie in this scenario, he knew it was a trivial matter that

wouldn't draw significant family backlash. However, involving her in military affairs.

Jordan would hit the roof!

This wouldn't just be mild irritation, but full-blown rage.

The Burnetts were aware that Milly was Jordan's treasured sister. He adored her to the point of treating her as his

delicate treasure.

And now, Milly's standing in the family has evolved, making her even more prominent in the elder’'s eyes. Xavier

realised he couldn't risk any blunders.

Xavier's face hardened. “It just won't work, end of discussion.”

The crew-cut man’s dissatisfaction showed clearly, his tone turning sharp. “Lieutenant, while | might not share

your rank, | am tasked with selecting recruits, right? Only sdays do we cacross such a standout

candidate, and you're blocking my choice. | deserve a reason. Why the refusal without any justification? Training

a sniper is one of the most challenging roles on a team!

“Lieutenant, I'm asking you one last time. Are you going to hand over this candidate?”

With a heavy sigh and a mix of concern and resignation in his eyes, Xavier softly said, “She just can’t be...”

“Fine.” Now visibly angered, the crew-cut man retorted, “I'll bring this up with General Burnett. Does the

Lieutenant wish to dictate the entire army’s operations? Pift.”

With that, he left in a huff.

Xavier was left speechless.

Why wouldn’t he understand?

Chapter 285 Live Training Exercise

He thought about getting Grandpa's blessing?

Well...

Given Grandpa's deep commitment to the military, he might actually consent. If Grandpa said yes, Xavier

wouldn't stand in the way, even if it meant facing Jordan's wrath

“Okay, let's focus back on the team, Xavier said, dismissing the man with the crew cut and giving the students

calm instructions.

“Our schedule today involves shooting practice this morning and a ten-kilometre hike in the mountains later in

the afternoon. Though ten kilometres might sound like a lot on a flat surface, the mountain trails will make it

more challenging. So, make sure you're ready and can keep pacel”

When the afternoon hike was mentioned, Stephanie was still trying to wrap her head around Milly’s unexpected

marksmanship talents. She suddenly felt sick, her complexion turning pale.

Wasn't the hike supposed to be at the end of the training program? She had hoped to find a way to duck out by

then, but why kick things off with it on day one?

She was not keen on joining the hike. Walking that distance was sure to leave her legs sore for days. She'd put

so much effort into keeping her legs looking great. Spending hours trekking could lead to muscles she doesn’t

want, potentially altering her looks significantly.

If that happened, she felt she'd lose a part of her identity.

Noticing her hesitation, or maybe out of concern for her, Xavier frowned slightly and asked, “If anyone's not

feeling up to it or has any issues, now's the tto say something. You don’t have to join the hike if that’s the

case. Anyone?”

“No!” everyone else quickly said.

Stephanie started to lower her hand, which she had hesitantly raised.

Now that everyone had passed up the opportunity, pulling out would only spotlight her.

She looked perfectly healthy when she first approached them; any excuse she tried to make now just wouldn't

cut it.

She had thought there'd be tto prepare if the hike was planned for later in the training. Being thrown into it

suddenly took her by surprise.

Her goal this twas to get on the good side of Milly’s classmates, win them over to her side, and begin to

isolate Milly. That way, she’d remove potential roadblocks from her path in the future.

Getting shelp from Lucius along the way would be a plus!

So, she knew she couldn't afford to stand out for the wrong reasons now, especially not in front of Milly!

Xavier waited for Stephanie to signal she was in, but when her hand didn’t go up, he looked worried and slightly

annoyed.

Her sincerity was palpable.

After her words, the atmosphere changed among the students. They looked at her with newfound respect. and

sstarted clapping softly, saying things like.
