nOn the other side, at the campsite…

nAccompanied by the instructors from the Ministry of Defense, Li Nanchen scrutinized the new special agent cadets who had been invited for the selection. When he did not see Wu Mei, he asked, “Is everyone here?”

n“Yes.” Feng Yue was the first to answer. She looked towards the dormitory guiltily and clenched her fists.

nIt was not appropriate for Li Nanchen to ask about Wu Mei’s whereabouts. He could only temporarily conceal his disappointment and signaled for the instructor to begin the selection…

nAlmost at the same time, in the dormitory building, Wu Mei smashed the window with her fist, causing a few extremely deep wounds on her arm. However, she did not care. She simply bandaged her arm with gauze and pulled Zhong Ling along as they ran to the rendezvous point.

nAt that moment, Feng Yue and Qi Feng had already passed the assessment and were successfully chosen!

nFeng Yue looked at Wu Mei begrudgingly. She didn’t expect that even something like this wouldn’t be able to trap Wu Mei!

n.

nShe said sarcastically, “You missed the selection time. Clearly, you didn’t take it seriously. With such an attitude, why did you still come here? Are you here to congratulate us?”

n

n

n“That’s right, you can go back to the dorm and continue sleeping! You don’t have a part in this mission. Come earlier next time!”

nAs Feng Yue and Qi Feng spoke, the joy in Li Nanchen’s eyes gradually dimmed…

nPretending to be unfamiliar with her, he walked to Wu Mei and asked, “You’re Wu Mei? You were first in the Qualifying Competition?”

n“Welcome to this trial mission.”

nThe new cadets were shocked. They did not expect Wu Mei to receive another “special treatment”. They were indignant and began to discuss!

nZhong Ling recognized him as the man Wu Mei had carried back that day. She quietly went to Wu Mei and whispered in her ear, “This man… isn’t here to repay a favor, is he?”

n“Don’t spout nonsense,” Wu Mei replied in a low voice. Zhong Ling pursed her lips obediently and sized up the unusual atmosphere between the two of them.

nFeng Yue was furious. She put her hands behind her back again and shouted, “Report, I have objections!”

n“Wu Mei did not go through the combat selection and is not eligible to participate in the selection for this mission. The Ministry of National Defense’s important missions require capable people, and not people who rely on connections! I propose creating a fair environment so that we can all be convinced!”

nSeeing her acting like an envoy of justice, Wu Mei pulled down her sleeves and looked up calmly as she asked, “Do you want to have a match with me?”

n“!”

nQi Feng remembered the trauma in the rainforest and wanted to stop Feng Yue.

nHowever, Feng Yue had never fought Wu Mei directly. She was itching for a chance to teach Wu Mei a lesson to vent her anger, so she immediately agreed!

nThe training ground was so empty that there were no obstacles for her to dodge. Every punch was real!

nFeng Yue took the initiative to attack and swept her leg in an attempt to find Wu Mei’s flaw…

nOn the other hand, Wu Mei leapt up in the air and flew to her. Her legs formed a scissor stance in mid-air and gripped Feng Yue’s neck tightly!

nThe suffocation and the oppression made Feng Yue immobilised. Her mind went blank. Slapping the ground, she grabbed a handful of sand, and threw it at Wu Mei. Even if her methods were despicable, she couldn’t care less!

nFeng Yue took the opportunity to lift Wu Mei up and wanted to throw her over her shoulder into the sand pit…

nAlmost instantly, she saw Wu Mei’s lips curl up in a scornful smile, as if in slow motion!

nThe next moment, Feng Yue was lying on the ground on her back and was being held down by Wu Mei. If Wu Mei exerted any force, she would die here!

n“You lost.” Wu Mei dusted her hands and stood up.

nFeeling pathetic and embarrassed, Feng Yue wanted to continue challenging Wu Mei. However, Li Nanchen interrupted her and said, “The purpose of this mission is to eradicate the drug lord’s nest and eliminate the drug gang. It’s extremely dangerous. I hope that all of you can show your strength and return safely.”

n

nFeng Yue was speechless with anger.

nWu Mei thought about it and pushed Zhong Ling in front of Li Nanchen. She said, “She’s extremely good at scouting. She can help with both disguise and analysis.”

n“Okay.”

nLi Nanchen nodded and told the instructor beside him to add Zhong Ling’s name to the list.

nThe few of them quickly packed up and prepared to leave the training base with Li Nanchen. When they passed by the main gate, they saw Ben standing there with his arms crossed. When he caught sight of Wu Mei, his eyes narrowed and he called out to her. He said coldly, “This mission isn’t suitable for you. Stay back.”

nWu Mei was a little surprised by Ben’s attitude. She chuckled and asked, “Why?”

nBen frowned but did not give a reasonable reason. He could only stand in Wu Mei’s way and block her path.

nThis continued until Li Nanchen sent an instructor over who said, “Ben, this mission is specially approved by the high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Defense. President Li has all the authority to give commands. You can’t interfere.”

n“Take a look. It’s an order from the superiors.”

nWu Mei tilted her head. Seeing Ben frown and take a step aside, she shrugged and caught up with the group.
