Chapter 1267: Ruthless Female SoldierChapter 1267 Ruthless Female Soldier
Ye Jian didn’t know she had taken second place; all she knew was that if she didn’t swim with everything she had, she was scared that she would sink to the bottom of the water and not be rescued any time soon.
If she wanted to stay alive, if she wanted to not be drowned to death, besides swimming with everything she had, there was no other option.
At the same time, she also had to thank Devil King Li for being merciful and not make them swim in seawater where seaweeds were overgrown. Otherwise, the danger levels would be much higher!

At that time, Ye Jian had the lingering feeling that she had just escaped with her life. Across the training for the past few years, this was the first time she had such a feeling.
Especially when she jumped into the water, she subconsciously wanted to move her hands but realized both hands and feet were tied; the sense of fear suddenly invaded her mind—even someone with the right mental fortitude like her panicked for several seconds.
Thank goodness she reacted in time and immediately started swimming with the power in her waist; otherwise, she would’ve really sunk to the bottom of the water.
“You struggled underwater, both your feet had broken some skin ’cause of the rope.” The Storm Commando member, who was helping her loosen the bindings on her hands, beamed a smile: “In the future, there’s more underwater training that would torment both mind and body, not only would your hands and feet be tied, sometimes you’ll have an oxygen tank tied to you. Little Yeah, when that time comes, only then would you know what it truly means to swim faster with all your might.”
I have to be tied to an oxygen tank!
Ye Jian’s scalp went numb just from listening to it, “Now I finally understand why the Devil King was so strict. It won’t do if he wasn’t strict; anyone with slightly inferior capabilities would definitely have an accident during training.”
“The Devil King is cold-faced but warm-hearted, him being strict towards you all was his way of being responsible to everyone. Look at the last few people, each and every one of them choked so hard they’re about to cough their lungs out. If he doesn’t guard the pass strictly, if any accidents happen, he’ll feel way worse than anyone here.”
Ye Jian did not doubt the accuracy of his words; after one week of training, she had indeed noticed that Li Jinnian was a soldier that was cold-faced but warm-hearted. Responsible yet stern.
His sternness and responsibility weren’t solely towards life; it was also him being responsible for the whole country.
This was a soldier that deserves everyone’s respects!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“It’s not over yet, hurry and lie down on the beach for an hour.” Without even examining how badly the strangle-wound was, the unit member immediately reminded Ye Jian to go to the next training item, … head pointed at the ocean, lie down on the beach and allow the waves to run over their bodies. They must also lie down where the seawater could run over their heads, not just their body.
This was the ‘wave-riding’ exercise, the function behind this exercise was to eliminate those who lacked mental fortitude.
Ye Jian untied the rope on her feet; she didn’t even look at her results and ran towards the beach. This wasn’t a cooperating team exercise. Instead, it was on a personal basis. She didn’t have any way to help those soldiers who had gulped down water and were now coughing with all they’ve got.
Swimming ability and mental fortitude were visibly shown in the bound swimming exercise, it had taken the most important role in the second round of eliminations.
Until 6 p.m. in the afternoon, finally ending the last day of training of ‘Hell’s Week,’ the soldiers who had just returned from the beach ran back with deformed posture as if they were hobbled old men that had severe rheumatism. Their limbs were so stiff that it seemed like their joints weren’t working properly with each step they took, as they walked like robots.
Ye Jian knew that there was no spot on her body that was untouched. Her body was red and swollen after soaking in so much seawater, and she felt extreme pain with basic motions of moving, but the finish line was just ahead. Besides gritting her teeth and pulling through, there was no room for retreat.
Ye Jian was able to be ruthless towards herself all the time until Li Jinnian had announced a string of names that didn’t include hers. After one week of extreme underwater training, Ye Jian, with the permission of Li Jinnian, slowly sat down on the sandy beach, gently calming her trembling legs.
