A training created such an incident, it had no doubt attracted much attention.
The middle and executive levels in the Dragon Cavalry couldn’t let this incident continued.
After Centurion Wales passed away due to anger, his body was removed from the arena, people from higher ranks came to take control and restored order at the training field.
At the fighting skills phalanx.
Shawn’s face was as dark as charcoal, he clenched his fits and was infuriated.
He witnessed everything. The slash from Jack astonished him.
While the failure of this plan angered him, his heart was heavy and there was no way to release it.
“Achilles, you’ve met your lucky star, I failed this time but I will get you next time and throw you into hell.”
That was what Shawn was thinking.
He was not curious about Jack’s extraordinary fighting skills and talent.
It was a norm for the Dragon Cavalry to recruit new soldiers from different troops, it was normal to have recruited some with extraordinary skills.
Shawn didn’t pay much attention and left the field.
On the other side, Jack and the rests laughed watching Shawn left.
Jack waved the Dragon Cavalry sword in his hand and asked Achilles, “How was it? My slash was worth the block?”
“You knew that it was an attack, but still blocked for me?” Achilles smiled helplessly.
Jack replied casually, “You are my sergeant, we are teammates, which means friends, blocking an attack for a brother is something a martial art practitioner should do.”
If it was just small friction, Jack wouldn’t intervene, it was no big deal.
But when he learnt that Centurion Wales received orders from Shawn, he had to intervene!
Achilles would be under so much constrained if he had faced Centurion Wales directly.
Shawn would have succeeded in framing him for all sorts of misconducts!
“Shawn is so cunning.” Debut said angrily.
Jack, Achilles, Cole and Yarol looked at Debut in puzzlement.
Four of them spoke simultaneously, “You knew it too?”
Debut shook his head and smiled naively, “I’m no dummy, of course, I can tell. Since Sergeant White and Jack are being sarcastic, why can’t I join it? Both of you can be the shield if anything happens anyway.”
“You are cunning too!”
Four of them spoke simultaneously again and gave Debut a thumb up.
It was morning when the training session ended.
Light from the sunrise warmth Thegiant city.
Jack and the group went back to their camp to pack up after breakfast.
Achilles said, “We’ve rested enough. Our mission today is city defence, prepare yourself, it’s a 24 hours mission once we take over.”
“Don’t worry Sergeant White, 24 hours is nothing, I’ve even done 48 hours in my previous troop!” Debut said while patting on his chest.
“That’s good then.” Achilles stared at Debut and smiled oddly.
Jack noticed everything. He knew that the Dragon Cavalry was based in the Northern Territory, this was not an ordinary place.
