"What's that girl's name?" The consul at the national military base asked, his voice trembling with excitement.
"Her name's Flora. She's this year's top scholar nationwide," someone replied respectfully.
"Send a letter to the University of Maple Grove. We want her!"
Such an impressive young woman—it'd be a waste if she didn't join the national team and bring glory to our country.
Everyone around looked on in astonishment, but Flora calmly put down her rifle and walked to the back row, as if scoring a perfect series was no big deal.
Jillian clenched her fists tightly.
After the shooting assessment ended, Flora secured the top spot with a perfect score, while Jillian took second place in the women's team and fifth in the mixed team.
The next assessment was an 1,800-mile weighted run.
Besides having a 2.2-pound sandbag tied to each foot, they also had to carry an 11-pound sandbag on their back.
Inside the sandbag was a timer to record the distance they ran and the time it took.
As soon as the referee finished speaking, the online community went wild.
Suddenly, they were no longer envious; running 1,800 miles like this could be life-threatening.
Although their school's military training was considered easy, the final assessment was a breeze—just marching and practicing military stances.
"If you feel unwell during the process, don't push yourself. Every 220 yards, there will be a safety officer by the side of the road responsible for your safety. You can also get some energy supplements from them, understood?"
"Understood!"
Cynthia rubbed her legs, grimacing, "I can run at most 600 miles. I hope Coach Chen shows some mercy and lets me pass overall."
"With you always butting heads with him, I wouldn't count on it," Eilies said, glancing at her while adjusting the straps of her sandbag.
Cynthia's expression turned even more bitter.
