A few days later, early morning.

As the morning sun rises, the streetlights, having finished their last night shift, shake off the morning light and slowly drift off to sleep.

Mo Zian and Han Dafu walked out of the Shuofeng store with their bags on their backs, and there were more things in their luggage than expected.

Mo Zian is a greatsword and a sniper-type ether gun.

The greatsword originally belonged to Gui Haishuo, but now that he no longer needed it, he gave it to Mo Zian.

The sniper rifle, a custom-made weapon by Gui Haishuo for Mo Zian, has a caliber of 2.5 microinch (approximately 12.5mm) and fires 2.5×10 microinch (12.5mm×50mm) machine gun ammunition. In Mo Zian's view, it has a hint of the anti-material sniper rifle from his previous life.

This weapon is not designed to use ether; it contains a complete ether core, which makes it extremely powerful.

Although he had only received the weapon yesterday, that did not diminish Mo Zian's fondness for it. So he carved two words on the gun: "Judge".

This huge thing has now been broken down into several parts and packed in boxes. As far as Mo Zian knows, the [Judge] should be the only one of its kind in the entire Guangwu Empire—a scorpion-poisonous creature.

Han Dafu, on the other hand, received an exquisite Miao sword and a set of poisoned throwing knives, both gifts from his master's wife, Fengye. It seemed that his master's wife was quite fond of Han Dafu.

This made Mo Zian very happy.

Li Xinhuo drove the ethereal carriage to take the two to the carriage station, and then they boarded the carriage and headed straight for the capital's military academy.

The driver seemed to be a meticulous person; he turned on the radio he had brought with him, but it was a small radio that could only pick up two stations.

"Today is the 45th day of the Fire Month in the 843rd year of the Guangwu Calendar. The temperature is significantly higher than yesterday. With the lotus flowers blooming in the capital park, summer has officially arrived..."

Mo Zian lowered one of the curtains, took out a water bottle from his backpack, and handed it to a hamster with bulging cheeks opposite him.

"Oh... thank you."

Mo Zian truly admired Han Dafu's good appetite. He had already eaten a whole beef pancake before leaving home, but at the carriage bus station, he bought another set of egg pancakes.

Mo Zian also bought a set, and even added some extra scallions.

She quickly devoured this egg pancake.

"Ah...a full stomach feels so comforting!"

With a satisfied look on his face, Han Dafu returned the water bottle to Mo Zian. "Why is your water sweet?"

"I melted a small piece of sugar in it," Mo Zian said, taking a sugar cube out of his pocket and putting it in his mouth.

"Want to come in?"

"Okay, hiccup...no, no more."

The carriage left the city and bumped along the mountain road to reach the guard post of the Mangshan Military Control District.

"Hello, please show me... oh?"

Han Dafu nimbly jumped off the carriage and into the bushes beside him before the guards could react.

"vomit……"

A rainbow cascaded down.

The guard at the door paused for a moment, as if he understood why he had been rejected on his last blind date.

……

"Students, please take your positions immediately! The opening ceremony is about to begin! Please place your personal belongings in front of your right side for now!"

"yes!"

Mo Zian and Han Dafu quickened their pace and joined the queue. Before long, everyone had arrived.

At this moment, in the main training ground, 127 new students stood quietly in neat square formations.

Under the direction of Colonel Liu Jingsong, the director of the unified admissions office whom they had met before, a brief but solemn opening ceremony marked the official start of these young people's military careers.

The flag was raised, some leaders gave speeches, and then the key personnel of the capital's military academy were introduced.

Besides Vice Principal General Chen Zhiming, the most important leaders and cadres included: Director of Education Wang Xinpei, Director of the Unified Enrollment Office Liu Jingsong, Chief Instructor Zhou Ting, and a military police chief.

Among the department heads, the one who left the deepest impression on Mo Zi'an was a lieutenant colonel named Jiang Lüde.

It wasn't because of his royal status, but because this Director Jiang was the head of the weapons department, and Mo Zian had heard his master say that the big shot at the Southeast Arsenal seemed to have this name.

I never expected that the other party would be transferred to the capital's military academy.

The opening ceremony was not complicated. After Vice Principal Chen Zhiming gave a concluding speech, the ceremony came to an end.

After the ceremony, Shen Yi, the new recruit instructor, took over the team. This soldier, who looked exceptionally tough, stood at the front of the team, cleared his throat, and his rough voice began to rub against everyone's eardrums.

"I think I don't need to introduce myself anymore; everyone standing here already knows who I am."

Let me give you a heads-up: working under me won't be easy! It won't be comfortable either! You'll undergo the most rigorous training, perhaps even the most brutal!

Shen Yi paused, glancing at everyone, "But I also promise! 180 days, just 180 days, I will make each and every one of you grow into a stalwart soldier, a soldier capable of fighting and winning battles, a soldier who strikes fear into the hearts of the enemy. I have unwavering confidence in this. What about you? Do you have confidence?"

"have!"

Shen Yi pinched half of her eye and tilted her head slightly: "I didn't hear you..."

"have!"

"Didn't you eat?" Shen Yi roared.

"have!!!"

"Repeat this loudly three times!"

"Yes, yes, yes!!!"

"Great, that's the spirit!"

Shen Yi nodded in satisfaction. "It's good to have confidence, but now, everything must start from the basics. What you need to do is obey every order I give and complete every training exercise."

You might think you're all geniuses, but in my eyes, you're nothing but trash right now, you haven't even gotten rid of your milk skin yet...

As Shen Yi spoke, a surge of ethereal energy emanated from his body. The powerful aura unique to spiritual warriors swept over everyone present, making it difficult for them to breathe.

"Now, you will officially receive my first order. I don't want to waste my breath explaining what to do when you hear the order."

You will be divided into three teams, each with three squads. Now, let me introduce your respective team commanders.

First Squad Leader, Captain Du Chi.

Captain Jiang Xing, commander of the second squad.

Third Squad Commander, Captain Song Chen.

Next, those who hear their names called, quickly return to your respective units according to your organization, run forward, and line up behind your squad leader. Understand?

"clear!"

"Very good." Shen Yi opened the roster he had been holding. "001, Mo Zi'an."

Mo Zian's spirits lifted.

"arrive!"

"One small team, one shift."

"yes!"

"002, Chen Bu Nei."

"arrive!"

"Second squad, fourth group."

"Yes"

"003, Chu Yan."

"arrive!"

"Three squads, seven groups."

"yes!"

......

"127, Han Dafu."

"arrive!"

"One small team, three shifts."

"yes!"

With Han Dafu joining the team, everyone officially returned to their posts, and the three squads became clearly distinct.

"Each squad leader should lead their own men to familiarize themselves with their units before assigning the next task. Reassemble in fifteen minutes."

Du Chi, the squad leader, led his team to a corner of the training ground. After a quick glance, Du Chi nodded and said in a hoarse voice, "Alright, I won't waste any more words. Let's take attendance first. Raise your hand when your name is called so I can recognize you."

The forty-three names were quickly called out, and Du Chi put the roster behind his back. "Alright, I'll now announce the next phase of the mission. Time is tight, so I'll get straight to the point..."

"Hey! You, first in the second row! Do you have the memory of a goldfish? Can't you remember a few words? If it's a real war and we're assigning tasks, where the hell are you going to find paper and pen? Put them away!"

The person who was called on shrank back instantly and quickly put the paper and pen back in their pocket.

Du Chi cleared his throat. "Alright, let's continue. The task is very simple..."
