The competitors of the War Wolf Special Forces in this military competition are the Dragon Soul Special Forces and the Dark Panther Special Forces.
They’ve been sizing each other up, pacing themselves, and calculating how much each team can handle on the rough trail.
Dragon Soul Special Forces’s team is led by Vice Captain Noah Davis, while Dark Panther Special Forces is under Vice Captain Oliver Adams.
In the first 20 minutes of the journey, the three teams in Group A were all consciously conserving their energy, moving forward almost in perfect unison, maintaining the same pace.
They all knew that, in this march, aside from the speed, the most important thing was to shake off the other two teams andeecure a spot as the first–round winner in Group A
That way, they’d earn a point, setting the foundation for the final score in the next two rounds of the competition.
The first stretch was about six miles, and the terrain was relatively flat.
The three teams moved easily during this part of the journey, each team’s special forces members conserving their energy as they jogged lightly forward,
The three teams were less than 6.6 feet apart, able to see each other clearly.
It was as if they had coordinated, all advancing in sync, knowing they would try to outpace one another in the next section
The next stretch was through the Death Valley of Wolfsbane Summit, the Black Wind Valley.
The terrain there was extremely complex, and the jungle was dense and chaotic, full of wild tigers, wolves. venomous snakes, and other dangerous beasts.
The forest in that area was a nightmare, and crossing the Death Valley required managing their stamin and dealing with the potential surprise attacks from wild animals at any moment.
All three teams were familiar with the terrain, and their strategies aligned.
The 18–mile march included the 7.5–mile stretch through Black Wind Valley, with each end comprising about 6 miles of flat terrain.
The plan for all three teams was to maintain synchronization through the first flat section.
Then, during the Black Wind Valley stretch, they would try to outpace the other two teams with similar stamina and cross–country skills.
Whoever gained the upper hand there would seize control of the competition’s final victory.
In the first six miles, the three teams moved nearly in sync, completing
ng the stretch in 10 minutes.
Throughout the run, the chief instructors had little communication or guidance with them from the

command station.
By 9:10 AM, the War Wolf, Dragon Soul, and Dark Panther teams arrived almost simultaneously at Black Wind Valley in Wolfsbane Summit, the infamous Death Valley jungle.
The vice–captains of the three teams gave orders almost at the same time.
All the special forces elites loaded their rifles in Black Wind Valley, preparing for any sudden attacks from venomous stakes, wild beasts, or wolves.
At the same time, they had to quickly navigate the terrain, crossing the dangerous area while trying to leave the other two teams behind.
As soon as they entered Black Wind Valley, the teams immediately spread out and increased their pace.
They were now moving twice as fast as before.
Inside Black Wind Valley, the thorns were thick, and venomous snakes were everywhere.
Every area they passed through was a potential site for a snake attack.
Less
than ten minutes into Black Wind Valley, someone was bitten by a snake.
The team’s medic immediately treated the wound, and the injured soldier continued marching forward.
The three teams were now moving incredibly fast–nearly three times faster than the first stretch.
They were eager to pass through the most dangerous section of the terrain as quickly as possible.
In just 20 minutes, the three teams had already crossed half of Black Wind Valley.
Gradually, they began to pull ahead, and their distance grew,
They could no longer see each other.
Back at the command station on Wolfsbane Summit’s training field, the live footage of the three teams progress was being broadcast.
Right now, the teams face competition and an extreme challenge.
In a race like this, casualties were inevitable.
Before they left, the team leaders had repeatedly emphasized that the liver of their soldiers were more important than the results–better to fail than to lose anyone.
Freya’s team of ten was cautiously making their way through the Death Valley.
Suddenly, about 30 feet away ahead, two wild wolves appeared on a hill, blocking their path.
Talia was so frightened she almost screamed.
Immediately, all the team members gripped their assault rifles, preparing for a potential attack by the wolves.

From the look of it, the two wolves were likely scouts, and there could be many more wolves behind them.
If the wolf king got word of the scouts‘ position, they might face an attack from dozens or hundreds of
wolves.
That would be terrifying
Normally, to avoid being attacked by wolves during the competition, they carried fresh meat with them. The idea was to toss it to any passing lone wolves or wild tigers.
This strategy could work temporarily if the two wolves were simply lone wolves.
But it would be useless if they were scouts for a pack–likely only attracting more wolves.
Therefore, they had to be extremely careful and wait until they were sure before making any move.
The War Wolf had already come to a halt.
Meanwhile, Dragon Soul and Black Panther pressed forward without any obstacles, moving smoothly and unhindered.
Dragon Soul’s scout informed Deputy Captain Noah that two wild wolves were blocking the path ahead of the War Wolf Special Forces.
They asked Noah for permission to stop and send reinforcements
Noah ordered them to take advantage of the situation and push forward quickly.
Before setting out, Chief Instructor Gavin had given them clear instructions.
Today’s mission was crucial to their futures.
No matter what happened–whether they lost soldiers or faced setbacks–they had to keep moving faster.
The only thing that mattered in the end was victory.
Seeing this scene unfold, the soldiers watching from behind couldn’t help but worry for the War Wolf.
Gavin glanced at Robin, whose expression remained neutral, and sneered, “Seems like the War Wolf’s luck’s pretty bad in the first round.”
Freya ordered the ten–person team to halt in Black Wind Valley and carefully observe the two wild wolves ahead
Based on their jungle training experience, Freya concluded that these two wild wolves were loners.
She then instructed Ernest to toss some chicken to the side to signal a friendly gesture toward the wolves.
The wolves understood the message and, indeed, moved aside.
The War Wolf cautiously moved forward.
After the wolves got the chicken, they realized the humans ineant no harm and actually stepped aside.

Ten minutes later, just as Dragon Soul and Black Panther were quietly enjoying their misfortune, they were faced with the most terrifying scene.
In front of them, over a hundred wild wolves had surrounded them completely.
Noah and Black Panther’s Deputy Captain Oliver immediately ordered to prepare for a gunfight with the wolves.
However, this approach was highly risky.
If they provoked the pack, they might draw even more wolves in.
They knew there were over a thousand wolves in Black Wind Valley.
If they were trapped in an attack by the wolves, no matter how advanced their equipment was, they wouldn’t be able to break free from this Death Valley.

The ten–member teams from the Dragon Soul Special Forces and Dark Panther Special Forces were locked in a standoff with over a hundred wild wolves.
Noah and Oliver discussed the situation and came to a decision with the others.
They decided to split up and charge in two directions to break through.
The plan was to divide the pack of wolves, drawing them off to the sides to weaken and kill them more easily.
In the dense woods of Black Wind Valley, using assault rifles would hardly help with so many wolves
Once a chaotic fight began, firearms wouldn’t be very effective and would likely attract even more wolves.
In such a narrow, obstacle–filled space, daggers and machetes were the best weapons for killing-
The War Wolf Special Forces arrived just as Dragon Soul and Dark Panther’s Special Forces were in a
deadlock with the wolves.
Noah and Oliver looked at War Wolf’s team, 500 feets to their left, quietly moving past the wolves. They shook their heads helplessly as they watched.
They had initially thought that the War Wolf Special Forces lost the first match because they’d encountered a pack of wolves.
Who would’ve guessed that War Wolf had such good luck?
They only ran into two lone wolves, while their teams encountered a pack of over a hundred.
War Wolf had already shaken off the two wolves and moved ahead of them.
You couldn’t really blame War Wolf for doing this.
After all, they hadn’t helped when War Wolf’s path had been blocked by wolves earlier, either.
Because this was a competition.
It was also a battle.
War Wolf left them behind to protect themselves and kept moving forward. It was totally understandable.
In battle, casualties are inevitable.
Each team had to decide their own way forward to achieve ultimate victory.
The ten–member War Wolf team gradually disappeared from sight.
Noah and Oliver decided to act on their plan without delay.
They began to move left and right, preparing for an intense battle with the wolves.

The wolves on the left noticed the ten–member team charging toward them, and in an instant, they swarmed around.
Dozens of wild wolves surrounded the Dragon Soul squad.
The elite fighters of Dragon Soul proved their skill, cach one showing impressive combat strength..
After a fierce fight, they managed to kill 20 wolves.
But the remaining wolves were now thoroughly enraged, launching wave after wave of a Dragon Soul team.

Meanwhile, the Dark Panther squad faced the same relentless assault from the wolves.
After a brutal struggle, the Dragon Soul and Dark Panther teams started to pull further apart.
Even though the wolves had been split into smaller groups, their fighting power was undiminished.
They kept coming in endless waves as if they couldn’t be wiped out.
Dark Panther got a lucky break.
After another skirmish, the remaining wolves around them suddenly turned and fled in Dragon Soul’s direction.
At this point, Oliver had no choice but to seize the chance. He quickly led the ten–member Dark Panther team out of the encirclement and headed for the edge of Black Wind Valley.
The Dragon Soul squad, however, was left trapped, surrounded on all sides.
At that moment, a long howl pierced the air, and the number of wolves around them seemed to grow even
more.
They noticed a high ridge about 160 feet ahead.
At its peak sat a white wolf, with four powerful black wolves crouched beside it.
That was the legendary wolf king!
No wonder that no matter how many they fought off, the wolves just kept coming
Each charged at the Dragon Soul Special Forces, driven by pure hatred.
In the fierce battle, many ten–person Dragon Soul squad members were already injured.
If this kept up, casualties would be inevitable.
But with the relentless attacks from the pack, no one had a chance to raise their gun to take down the lead wolf.

Just then, five muffled gunshots echoed through the air
The white wolf king perched on the ridge was shot through the head in an instant.
The four black wolves beside it also dropped dead, each felled by a single bullet.
It turned out the War Wolf team hadn’t left after all.
Instead, they circled behind the wolf pack, found the wolf king, and took it out directly.
*S Free Cons
With the wolf king’s final, agonized howl, the rest of the wolves hesitated briefly before scattering in all
directions.
In the now–empty Black Wind Valley, only the blood–soaked, brutal aftermath remained.
As the wolves dispersed, Noah noticed two of his team members were seriously injured, and his brows furrowed with concern.
Given the team’s current state, catching up to War Wolf, who had already pushed far ahead, seemed almost impossible.
Without delay, Noah reported the situation to Morris.
Although Morris was the captain of the Dragon Soul Special Forces, the chief instructor, Gavin, held much more seniority.
After Morris received Noah’s request, he quickly reported the situation to Gavin.
Hearing Noah’s plan, Gavin responded coldly, “For the sake of the final ranking, some sacrifices may be necessary. I’ll send reinforcements later for rescue.”
Following Gavin’s directive, Noah had no choice but to painfully decide to leave behind the two severely injured teammates, Emilio and Lach.
He planned to temporarily hide them in Black Wind Valley.
However, Bill objected, raising a concern: wouldn’t they be in grave danger if the wolves returned?
Noah checked the time and replied, “If we bring them, our pace will be drastically slowed.
“Gavin’s order is clear: we temporarily leave Emilio and Lach behind, ensure they’re well–hidden, and then return with reinforcements for rescue.”
The other seven soldiers fell silent after hearing Noah’s orders.
They understood the importance of this battle, but they also knew what kind of danger Emilio and Lach would face if they were left in Black Wind Valley.
If the wolves returned and found them, no matter how well they were hidden, avoiding an attack would be nearly impossible.
But an order from above couldn’t be disobeyed.
Following Noah’s command, two teammates carefully concealed Emilio and Lach amidst a pile of broken

Meanwhile, having not gone far, the War Wolf team received a report from a scout covering the rear: “Ms. Wright, the Dragon Soul team left two injured members behind in Black Wind Valley.
“Both Emilio and Lach are elite soldiers of Dragon Soul. If they’re killed by the wolves seeking revenge, it would be a real loss. My suggestion is….
Freya nodded. T’ll ask Commander Colton and Instructor Ramsey.”
When Silas got the news, he hesitated. Bringing Emilio and Lach along would undoubtedly slow down the entire War Wolf team’s pace, erasing their hard–won lear
Plus, returning later to find them would take even more time.
He passed this information to Robin.
Without a second thought, Robin said. “How could we leave comrades behind to die? Take them with us! In a situation like this, the outcome of the competition is nothing compared to a comrade’s life.”
The other chief instructors sitting at the command post were momentarily stunned when they heard. Robin’s words.
After a while, they understood. War Wolf had likely realized they wouldn’t be able to win today’s match and made this decision deliberately.
Choosing to bring Dragon Soul’s two injured soldiers along was their way of giving War Wolf a perfect send–off, a fitting conclusion for their team.

Following her orders, Freya immediately halted the team’s advance and divided the ten–member squad into three groups.
Talia and three other War Wolf elites took up positions at four possible entry points where the wolf pack might reappear.
Ernest and another special forces elite quickly moved toward where Emilio and Lach were hidden.
Meanwhile, snipers Derrick and Farcas positioned themselves on two vantage points to cover the area.
Freya and another elite soldier climbed to the top of a tree with a clear view of Emilio and Lach’s location, coordinating the rescue operation from above,
The jungle–hardened special forces soldiers all knew that the wolves that had fled might very well circle back.
for survival
In the wild, wolves survive daily, fighting against hunger and hardship, constantly struggling
Driven by hunger, they were relentless and resilient, stopping at nothing to secure their next meal.
For survival, the terrifying will to fight to the death exhibited by wild wolves is truly something to fear.
This is a species that commands respect.
Though ruthless, they are also proud and unyielding.
After the immediate threat had passed, the hungry wolyes would inevitably return to where they had previously fought humans in search of food.
As expected, Ernest and the others had yet to reach the area where Emilio and Lach were hidden when a dozen wolves appeared, quickly approaching their location along the jungle’s edge.
The cunning wolves had indeed returned.
The pack had chosen a new leader, and the old wolf king died.
This was the first operation led by the new wolf king
The new wolf king likely suspected there were still injured humans left behind in the area.
Freya, watching through binoculars, sucked in a sharp breath.
If the War Wolf team hadn’t paused to search for Emilio and Lach, considering their current condition, even if they managed to fight off the wolves for a while, today would undoubtedly have ended with the wolves feasting on them.
Without wasting any time, Freya immediately ordered Talia and Ernest’s teams to flank the 13 wolves that had entered their line of sight from both the front and rear.
She also instructed snipers Derrick and Farcas to prepare for precise shots at the wolves in the middle of the pack, aiming to break their formation in half.

The 13 hungry wolves were so focused on their search for food that they hadn’t noticed the special forces elite hidden around them, lying in wait.
The 13 wolves gradually moved deeper into the encirclement that Freya had carefully planned.
They were cautious, searching for food, but they suddenly halted when they neared the area where Emilio and Lach were hidden.
The wolves were indeed very cunning.
They carefully observed their surroundings as if sensing that something was off in the otherwise silent. jungle, a deadly presence lurking nearby.
In the shadowy woods, the 13 wolves stood utterly still, like statues, not making a move.
For over two minutes, they didn’t take a single step forward.
The forest was eerily silent, suffocating in its stillness.
Meanwhile, the heavily injured Emilio and Lach had already assumed the posture for their final struggle, prepared to fight until the very end.
Through the dense cover of branches, Emilio and Lachaimed their assault rifles at the lead wolf.
The moment the pack prepared to charge at them, they opened fire.
The first three wolves in line were instantly shot dead, but the remaining ten quickly darted behind the
trees.
The thick jungle, however, prevented their bullets from being as lethal as they had hoped.
The wolves hid behind the trees, making it nearly impossible for Emilio and Lach to land any fatal shots.
The ten remaining wolves began circling, gradually closing in on them, playing a cat–and–mouse game. They taunted and pressured the two injured soldiers, forcing them to fire repeatedly.
In less than five minutes, Emilio and Lach had almost run out of ammunition, yet they hadn’t managed to kill all the wolves.
Emilio looked at the wolves, closing in on them, a bitter smile spreading. “Lach, we still have two grenades left. Let’s use them to take these b’stards out! We’ll each save one bullet.”
He nodded toward the distance. Lach handed him the binoculars. “There are still more wolves coming at us. Looks like we’re not going to make it out of here.”
“After we throw the grenades, let’s just end it with a bullet, Emilio said, leaning against the tree.
His legs, still bleeding, were a grim reminder of their situation. He forced a bitter smile. “I never imagined that it would end like this after five years with the Dragon Soul Special Forces. This is such a pathetic way
to go.
“When I joined the army, I imagined that one day Id die in battle like Santiago or Josh from War Wolf

Instead, here we are, dying in this jungle, getting eaten by a pack of wolves. How pathetic can it get?”
Lach also managed a bitter smile. ‘No choice. It’s fate. Next life, I’ll go out in a blaze of glory.”
“Alright, let’s do this. We’ll throw the grenades at the wolves!”
The two of them tossed the grenades toward the approaching pack.
A sudden burst of flames erupted as three wolves were torn apart by the grenades.
However, the four grenades did not end the assault.
After the brutal explosion, the wolf pack launched another attack.
Emilio and Lach watched as more and more wolves charged toward them, and they laughed.
Emilio decisively pressed his gun’s barrel against Lach’s head. “Let’s begin then.”
“There’s just one regret,” Lach said with a bitter smile. “Emilio, let’s fight side by side in the next life.
They looked at each other and laughed, but as they laughed, tears of regret and unwillingness began to well up in their unwavering eyes.
At the same time, both turned to face the surveillance camera and gave a solemn military salute.
At the rear command center of Wolfsbane Summit, all the soldiers watching the surveillance footage stood up in unison.
“What are they doing?”
Morris trembled. “They’re going to end it with their last bullet.
The elite special forces left behind by Dragon Soul immediately roared in anguish. “We shouldn’t have left. them behind!”
“Why did we leave them in Black Wind Valley?”
Morris’s face twitched violently, his eyes bloodshot with rage.
As the commander of Dragon Soul’s Special Forces, he had no answer to the questions from his comrades.
For the sake of a competition result, they had abandoned their comrades, their friends in arms, to die.
He was speechless, overcome with guilt.
Gavin’s face was grim as he sternly shouted, “As soldier, we know that sacrifice can come at any time! This is war. Do you think this is a game? What do you think you’re doing?
“Remember this–battle always comes with sacrifice! Every battle must be fought with the collective victory as the ultimate goal!

The command center on the vast training ground instantly fell silent as if dead still.
A gust of mountain wind swept through, stirring the dit mixed with the blinding sunlight, making everything seem frozen in time. It felt as if the entire world had come to a halt, weighed down by an overwhelming sense of numbness, with no joy, no sorrow.
A tragic feeling lingered, one that seemed impossible to shake,
Two gunshots rang out, breaking through the stillness of time and space.
The entire room shuddered, a collective gasp echoing through the air.
The comrades left behind by Dragon Soul couldn’t bring themselves to look at the live broadcast on the command center’s screen.

Amidst the noise were the voices of Emilio and Lach.
“Lach, our comrades are here to rescue us!
“We were this close to taking ourselves out.”
“Hey, Emilio, why is War Wolf’s team coming to save us?”
“Is it? Uh… Yeah, it is Instructor Rudwick, Colonel Cross. Lieutenant Langdon–they’re all here!
“I thought it would be our brothers from Dragon Soul
In the recording, Emilio and Lach’s voices were mixed with excitement and disappointment.
Next, the audio picked up Ernest’s voice shouting. “What are you two standing around for? Get on my shoulder, onto the stretcher! Let’s get you out of here!
Emilio, bewildered, asked, “Colonel Wright, by coming here to save us, aren’t you forfeiting the game?”
Freya responded coldly. “Is your life worth less than the game’s outcome?”
Lach was stunned. “But if you lose this round, they might dissolve your unit.”
Shut up! This isn’t the time for that!” Freya snapped.
“A whole pack of wolves is closing in–can’t you see that? If we don’t move now, we’re going to pay a much higher price!

Soul Special Forces elites stationed in the rear finally looked up at the live feed.
In Black Wind Valley’s jungle, Freya was calmly directing two snipers and five special forces soldiers, maneuvering strategically as the wolves drew closer.
A fresh wave of gunshots and explosions erupted.
The jungle of Black Wind Valley became an inferno in moments.
Five minutes later, silence fell over Black Wind Valley.
Smoke, flames, and gunfire faded away.

Emilio and Lach, watching their War Wolf comrades slow down due to carrying them, felt a pang of guilt.
They shouted, “Guys, leave us here! We’re already in a safe zone outside Black Wind Valley–go on without us, or you’ll be disqualified!”
Mark, running alongside them, pointed at Emilio and ach, barking. “Shut your mouths! What the hell are you saying?”
“Do you think we’d leave wounded brothers behind just to win a game? You’re insulting us!
“If you keep this up, I’ll knock you both out!”
Seeing Mark, drenched in sweat as he carried the stretcher, Emilio and Lach’s eyes filled with tears.
These were true brothers–in–arms. They’d sacrifice all glory before leaving an injured teammate behind.
“Colonel Wright, thank you! If I could do it over, I’d join War Wolf in a heartbeat!”
“This was Commander Colton and Instructor Ramsey’s order!
“We’re all soldiers of Draconia–there’s no division among us! Now save your energy. You’ve lost a lot of blood.
“You both have chunks of flesh bitten out of your legs by those wolves. If we don’t get you back to base soon, you’ll bleed to death.
“Quiet down and conserve your strength!
“And save ours too.
“Yes, sir!” Emilio and Lach immediately clamped their mouths shut.
Watching the War Wolf Special Forces sprinting in an all–out dash, guilt flickered in their eyes.
After a grueling 30–minute charge, they finally crossed Death Valley, reaching flatter ground.
By now, they’d been on the move for three and a half hours, with the last six miles still ahead.
According to the rules, if they failed to complete the entire course within the base time of four hours and. ten minutes, War Wolf Special Forces would be directly disqualified, missing out on the next stage entirely.
Freya checked the time and commanded, “We have 40 minutes left. We need to give it everything we’ve got!
“These last six miles–run like your life depends on it and get it done within 40 minutes!
“Only then will we have a chance to continue to the next round.”
The team understood Freya’s words clearly.
Though scoring a point in this round was now impossible, they still had to secure eligibility for the next.
War Wolf was the challenger, and if they couldn’t reach this basic target, they d face direct elimination, ending their mission in this exercise prematurely.

“Would losing our name honor those who sacrificed for us?”
“No!” the team shouted back, voices resolute. “We will complete these six miles in 40 minutes!”
The next moment, the ten–person War Wolf team surged forward, driven to their limit.
Half an hour later, the Dark Panther Special Forces crossed the finish line first, securing the win for this initial stage and earning a solid point.
Three minutes after that, the eight members of Dragon Soul Special Forces reached the end.
While they hadn’t lost any points, none of them felt like true victors.
Looking back on the long march, Dragon Soul’s eight members wore somber expressions, each grappling with disappointment.

Upon learning that War Wolf Special Forces had saved their two injured teammates, they all bowed their heads, weighed down by guilt
It was a bitter feeling, worse than defeat.
Seven minutes remained until the cut–off time, but there was still no sign of the War Wolf team on the final stretch.
The members of War Wolf, Dragon Soul, and Dark Panther Special Forces all stood, hoping to see Freya and her team make it to the end in time.
In the audience, Zayn checked his watch, then smirked at the impassive Robin seated at the command center. “This is the price for chasing the spotlight, he speered.

“And those idi’ts from War Wolf listened to Robin’s order–it’s ridiculous!
“With only five minutes left, if they don’t make it to the finish line, War Wolf’s name can be officially retired.”
Catherine looked up at the gleeful Zayn, then at Robin still seated with quiet confidence.
She had a feeling Robin knew something. War Wolf might still have a chance.

“My instincts tell me the War Wolf team will make it to the finish line right on time, Catherine muttered to herself, her voice clear and firm.
Her words caught Zayn off guard. “Catherine, what did you just say?”
Even Catherine found herself puzzled, surprised at her confidence.
Realizing she’d spoken aloud, she quickly tried to brush it off. “Uh… Did I say that she replied, feigning a casual tone.
Michelle noticed Catherine’s flustered expression and laughed. “Catherine, you’ve been a bit out of it lately. You’re like a different person every time you look at Robin. Are you interested in him? Haha….
Catherine’s cheeks grew warm as she glared at Michelle “What nonsense are you talking about?”
Michelle shrugged with a smirk. Im just kidding, Catherine. There’s no way you’d go for someone like Robin–such a brute!
“Besides, I know you have high standards. With Zayn as your example, your Mr. Right has got to be someone exceptional.”
Catherine scoffed, “Using him as a standard? That’s a joke.”
“Alright, enough chit–chat!” Elliott checked the time, seeing less than four minutes remaining before the cutoff. He waved them silently with impatience.

Standing, Elliott looked out at the last one mile, shaking his head in despair..
With only a few minutes left, if the War Wolf team still hadn’t shown up, their elimination was almost

But just then, he saw a cloud of dust kicking up at the far end of the path.
His instincts told him that Freya and her team were there.
This was their final sprint.
The wide Wolfsbane Summit training grounds fell into complete silence.
Everyone could see that Freya and her team were utterly exhausted.
Yet, the ten elite members of War Wolf were carrying two stretchers, giving everything they had to reach the finish line.

Everyone watched, wondering if they could cover that ground in the time left.
If they failed, by the rules of this exercise, War Wolf would be eliminated.
In the vast training grounds, over a thousand soldiers from the Special Operations Military Region shouted their support.
All seven chief instructors stood, deeply moved by the scene before them. It had been years since they’d seen such anity and passion.
What kind of force could inspire every soldier here to rally for this ten–member team, even their competitors?
At this moment, no one wanted to see these comrades eliminated.
Every cheer was a plea for fate to let this trustworthy tem prevail.
They shouted with all their might, hoping to keep these comrades in the fight.
These were comrades worth respecting; no one wanted to see them eliminated.
Gavin frowned slightly as he took in the scene before him. When he noticed Robin’s calm, almost indifferent expression out of the corner of his eye, he let out a cold chuckle and said, “With that much ground to cover, how could War Wolf possibly complete the mission within the required time?”
Senior Colonel Damian Palmer, the chief instructor of the Fierce Tiger Special Forces, was also moved by the scene unfolding in front of them. Almost involuntarily, he replied, “Maybe they can!
“There’s a remarkable force in this world that can even move the heavens–the power of unity!” Damian continued. “What I see in the War Wolf team is the greatest force in existence: unity! Giving it everything they’ve got! Not abandoning a single one of their own!
“That’s the kind of comrade I respect most.
“Instructor Ramsey, maybe both Fierce Tiger and War Wolf will be eliminated, but honestly, in all my years in the military, you’re the first person I’ve ever trily admired!”
Robin shrugged. “War Wolf isn’t getting eliminated.”
Damian was at a loss for words, then smiled and said, “Right–how could anyone with such an indomitable spirit be eliminated? I’m certain War Wolf will fight to the very end!”
Gavin sneered. “It’s easy to shout slogans, but only the results matter.
“As a soldier, I only care about the outcome. All this talk of teamwork and spirit means nothing if you can’t

Damian fell silent. He knew that, arrogant or not, Gavin’s authority in the military was unshakable.
Meanwhile, a wave of joy swept across the Wolfsbane Stimmit training grounds.
The crowd chanted in unison, “War Wolf has done it!”
The ten members of War Woll, carrying their two injured comrades on stretchers, broke through the finish line in the final second, barely meeting the time requirement and securing their right to continue in the competition.
The moment they crossed the line, Freya and the others collapsed to the ground, exhausted.
Their fellow soldiers stood and saluted the War Wolf team.
In each gaze was a profound respect for these comrades who would risk life and limb for each other. These were the comrades they held in the highest regard.
Faced with the choice between honor and loyalty, they chose to stand by their brothers in life or deat earning the deepest respect.
After the brief cheers, Robin, Gavin, and the other six chief instructors made their way to the finish line.
The teams from each of the seven divisions quickly assembled into neat rows.
Xavier from the War Games Division announced the scores of the various teams.
In Group A, Dark Panther won the first event, earning one point.
Dragon Soul came in second, maintaining their zero points.
War Wolf placed last and lost a point, yet managed to retain their spot in the second event.
Once again, the training grounds erupted in cheers as War Wolf’s ten–member team was lifted onto the command platform like heroes, greeted by the applause of all the soldiers.
This battle may have ended in defeat for War Wolf, but they held onto their honor.
Emilio and Lach, supported by two comrades, approached Robin.
Instructor Ramsey, thank you!” They stood at attention and gave the most respectful salute.
Robin clapped them on the shoulder. “We’re comrades–no need for thanks. Just focus on getting better.”
With that, he turned and walked back toward the War Wolf Special Forces.
As they watched Robin’s tall, steady figure move off into the sunlight, the elite troops of Dragon Soul Special Forces felt an unexpected sense of emptiness settles over them.

Xavier announced that the first round of the Wolfsbane Summit military martial tournament had officially concluded.
Despite the tension that had lasted all morning, the elite special forces teams gathered in the command center plaza, their spirits even higher than before.
Lieutenant General Hunter Baxter, Commander of the Special Operations Military Region, surveyed the extraordinary unity and morale radiating from the soldiers on the training grounds. Nodding in satisfaction, he remarked, “I’m impressed by this powerful display of unity and spirit!”
Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Caleb Walker agreed with a smile. “Lieutenant General Baxter, seeing a team with this level of cohesion is truly heartening.

“My instincts tell me the War Wolf team will make it to the finish line right on time, Catherine muttered to herself, her voice clear and firm.
Her words caught Zayn off guard. “Catherine, what did you just say?”
Even Catherine found herself puzzled, surprised at her confidence.
Realizing she’d spoken aloud, she quickly tried to brush it off. “Uh… Did I say that she replied, feigning a casual tone.
Michelle noticed Catherine’s flustered expression and laughed. “Catherine, you’ve been a bit out of it lately. You’re like a different person every time you look at Robin. Are you interested in him? Haha….
Catherine’s cheeks grew warm as she glared at Michelle “What nonsense are you talking about?”
Michelle shrugged with a smirk. Im just kidding, Catherine. There’s no way you’d go for someone like Robin–such a brute!
“Besides, I know you have high standards. With Zayn as your example, your Mr. Right has got to be someone exceptional.”
Catherine scoffed, “Using him as a standard? That’s a joke.”
“Alright, enough chit–chat!” Elliott checked the time, seeing less than four minutes remaining before the cutoff. He waved them silently with impatience.
Michelle glanced at Elliott and fell quiet immediately.
Standing, Elliott looked out at the last one mile, shaking his head in despair..
With only a few minutes left, if the War Wolf team still hadn’t shown up, their elimination was almost
certain.
But just then, he saw a cloud of dust kicking up at the far end of the path.
His instincts told him that Freya and her team were there.
This was their final sprint.
The wide Wolfsbane Summit training grounds fell into complete silence.
Everyone could see that Freya and her team were utterly exhausted.
Yet, the ten elite members of War Wolf were carrying two stretchers, giving everything they had to reach the finish line.
After a moment’s pause, the command center erupted in cheers.
A thousand soldiers on the training grounds began shouting encouragement for War Wolf’s ten elite

The entire assembly, including all the high–ranking officers at the command platform, rose to their feet, standing at attention.
The crowd cheered as if welcoming heroes.
Three minutes remained, and for Freya and her team, the last one mile felt like an impossible distance.
Everyone watched, wondering if they could cover that ground in the time left.
If they failed, by the rules of this exercise, War Wolf would be eliminated.
In the vast training grounds, over a thousand soldiers from the Special Operations Military Region shouted their support.
All seven chief instructors stood, deeply moved by the scene before them. It had been years since they’d seen such anity and passion.
What kind of force could inspire every soldier here to rally for this ten–member team, even their competitors?
At this moment, no one wanted to see these comrades eliminated.
Every cheer was a plea for fate to let this trustworthy tem prevail.

Hunter turned to Caleb. “What do you take away from the scenes we witnessed in this morning’s competition?”
“A commander who can set aside pride and personal glory for the sake of their comrades and the mission will lead an invincible team. The character of a squad is defined by its commander!
Since General Ramsey joined, War Wolf Special Forces has begun to show the edge it once had. Given time, they’re bound to reclaim their former glory–they’ll be an unstoppable force.”
Hunter smiled. “Is that what you believe?”
“Commander Baxter, it’s just my opinion, not an official assessment. As for the outcome of this tournament and what the future holds, we’ll just have to wait and see.”
Hunter watched Robin as he walked away, his expression turning serious, “Alright, then this afternoon, we’ll see if War Wolf can stage a comeback and rise to victory.
“If War Wolf truly manages to turn things around, I’ll personally award them their medals.”
Then he turned to General Martin Wright. “It’s been a while since I’ve seen you at an event like this. Your granddaughter, Freya, did you proud with her performance today!”
Martin laughed. “She did alright.
“Freya’s performance was certainly impressive. But what I’m looking forward to is watching War Wolf Special Forces–once the ace of the Special Operations Military Region–climb back from rock bottom to shine once again.”
-You think War Wolf will pull off a comeback?” Caleb asked with a smile.
Martin nodded confidently. Just from this first round, I can see they’ve got a remarkable leader. An outstanding commander has a unique ability to inspire and move the hearts and minds of all soldiers–a quality that most can’t even begin to match.

Hunter nodded solemnly. “You have a keen eye, and I’m sure your words will come true. Let’s head to the mess hall; we’ll need our strength for the afternoon to see more of War Wolf’s performance”
As everyone except Dragon Soul Special Forces headed the mess hall, Gavin held his team back, Emilio and Lach were already sent off to the infirmary, but the rest of the Dragon Soul soldiers remained on the scorching training grounds under Gavin’s command.
Standing in front of his team with a stern face, Gavin addressed them. “Before the afternoon competition begins, let me remind you all of a soldier’s true essence and how an invincible team must conduct itself on the battlefield..
“It’s about maintaining a heart of steel, a spirit of resilience, and an unwavering determination to win!
“Yes, sentimental and compassionate feelings may be present, but let me make one thing clear to all of you: war is ruthless, and there will always be sacrifices
“The true purpose of war is victory, not sentiment,” Gavin declared firmly.
“If you’re here just for sentimentality, then you don’t belong on the battlefield. Go to the rear and enjoy romance if that’s what you’re after!
“Here, what we demand is ironclad determination and results that lead to victory!
“You can be loyal and compassionate, but if the result failure, then the battlefield leaves you with only one outcome–death.
“So, remember this: it doesn’t matter who uses what tactics to gain favor, or who resorts to manipulative tricks, Dragon Soul’s core principle is to focus solely on the outcome of a fight.
“If there’s no result, everything else is worthless!
“For this afternoon’s long–range sniper hold, you must achieve a full score at the one–mile mark. This is a mission you have to complete!
“Only by scoring in this series can Dragon Soul secure an absolute advantage in the final round.
“Dark Panther is already one point ahead of us, and we have no idea if War Wolf, with all their unpredictability, might pull off a comeback in the end,
“I don’t want to see Dragon Soul, which has led the first three rounds, knocked out at the last moment.
“Alright, get to the mess hall now!
“And after lunch, return to your rooms for rest immediately!”
Under Morris’s lead, Dragon Soul Special Forces headed toward the mess hall, each one silent along the
way.
Gavin’s words hit hard: in war, the outcome is what matters most, not sentiment.
If you’re ruled by emotion on the battlefield, it’s not war anymore. The harsh reality of war is something you can’t escape.
Yet, they were troubled by the question–when faced with a situation like today’s, would they choose to

Inside the dining hall, Morris, Bill, and others greeted Robin, Ernest, and Freya as they entered.
Morris stopped and called out, “General Ramsey.
Robin glanced at him, noticing his wavering gaze. “What’s the matter? Feeling guilty?”
Morris immediately straightened up, and he, Bill, and the others saluted Robin. “General Ramsey, thank you–and thank you to War Wolf Special Forces”
Robin raised an eyebrow. “I see hesitation in your eyes
Morris froze..
“If you have respect for every soldier in War Wolf, then I expect you to give it your all and defeat War Wolf in the two events this afternoon. That’s what it means to respect your comrades.
“Feeling pity or gratitude toward your opponent is an insult to your most respected comrades.
“I want to see your best performance. Show War Wolf your strength. Don’t let me down!”
Morris and Bill stood stunned, but a renewed determination lit up in their eyes.
“Yes, Sir! Every Dragon Soul soldier will give it their all to clash with War Wolf most spectacularly!”

A 1:30 PM, the seven elite teams began the second round of the first event in their cross–country march.
This phase covered a grueling 3.5 miles with over 40 enemy “ambush points” hidden along narrow paths, followed by a six–mile armed sprint.
In this team–based competition, each squad performed impressively.
Group A’s Dragon Soul, Dark Panther, and War Wolf squads all completed the task within the set time and score limits.
With the completion of the first major event in the Wollsbane Summit military martial tournament, Group A’s teams stood as follows:
Dark Panther took the lead with three points.
Dragon Soul followed with two points, putting them in second place..
War Wolf, due to a negative one–point score from the 19–mile weighted march, ended up with one point in total, landing them in third place.
At 3:00 PM, the first event–the cross–country march–officially concluded.
After a short break, the teams prepared for the tournament’s second event, which would begin at 3:30 PM the Individual Military Skills Sniper Competition.
The sniper competition was divided into three rounds 12–mile long–range sentinel shot, a 03–mile precision shot under simulated night conditions, and 0.3 mile moving target shot.
At 3:30, Xavier announced the start of the first round of the sniper event: the 1.2–mile long–range sentinel shot.
Each of the three special forces teams sent one member forward to
compete.
First up was Colonel George Loman from Dark Panther Special Forces, a top–ranked sniper who had consistently led the long–range shooting events in past military tournaments and was among the top three snipers in the entire military.
George quickly assembled his rifle, calibrated his sight took aim, and fired.
In four minutes and thirty–nine seconds, he achieved a perfect score: ten shots, and fen bullseyes, earning Dark Panther an additional point, bringing their total to four.
Next was Bill from Dragon Soul Special Forces, who was also ranked in the top three elite snipers in the Special Operations Military Region.
Bill’s movements were seamless–assembling, calibrating, aiming, and firing–all flowed together in one smooth sequence.
His score: four minutes and thirty–five seconds, ten shots, ten bullseyes, earning Dragon Soul another

Finally, War Wolf Special Forces sent their sniper, Lieutenant Derrick Myrad, to the line.
Derrick scored bullseyes on his first nine shots, but due to a sudden shift in wind speed, his final shot hit just outside the center ring, scoring nine points.
According to the rules, Dark Panther and Dragon Soul tied for first in this round, each earning one point.
War Wolf, however, ranked third and lost a point.
With that, War Wolf’s total score dropped to zero, pushing them back to the bottom of the rankings.
The 12–mile sentinel shot event ended, leaving War Wolf at a disadvantage.
For War Wolf, already at the bottom of the scoreboard, this outcome was a serious setback.
If they faltered again in the remaining two rounds, War Wolf Special Forces would be in an precarious position.
This dismal performance left Silas deeply anxious.
extremely
If this trend continued, War Wolf Special Forces might as well pack up before the third event–the freestyle combat competition–even started.
The sequence in which each competitor was sent out hard been meticulously planned by Robin.
In this first round of the 1.2–mile long–range sentinel shot, Robin had chosen not to start with Ernest, who, was also among the top three elite snipers in the military, instead assigning the 12–mile fixed target to their promising rookie, Derrick.
“Instructor Ramsey, with things looking this way…
Robin interrupted Silas, “The competition’s just begun, no need to worry. We’re still in control. Worst case, we take them down in overtime.”
“But our score gap is too wide,” Silas said, his concern evident. Tm worried we won’t be able to catch up!”
Robin gave a calm smile. “Let’s just be patient and wait it out.”
The second round began, with a simulated 0.3–mile precision night sniper event held at the Wolfsbane Summit military training base.
Each team participant entered the indoor simulation area ten minutes in advance, prepared for the specialized target environment.
Dark Panther Special Forces fielded a rookie sniper this time, Second Lieutenant Gus Labadie.
In his first big competition, Gus managed perfect tens for the first nine targets but faltered on the last one. scoring only a seven.
Dark Panther wasn’t too bothered by this; with their total score at four points, they were still in strong standing for the next round.

For Dragon Soul Special Forces, Major Laurie Holmes was up next.
Ranked sixth among the army’s best snipers and a four–year veteran of Dragon Soul, he felt the pressure on his first shot, hitting only nine points, but then scored tens on all nine remaining targets.
While it wasn’t a flawless performance, it kept them from losing points,
If War Wolf scored lower, Dragon Soul might still take the lead in this round.
War Wolf Special Forces sent out Jerome, a less–experienced sniper whose shooting skills weren’t top t in the army.
However, Jerome was known for his exceptional mental stability, a critical trait for a sniper.

Robin had chosen him for precisely this reason and had given Jerome a special session on precision night shooting beforehand.
If War Wolf could seize the opportunity in this round, they would still be able to control the pace of the competition.
Otherwise, their fate would be left to chance.
Jerome didn’t disappoint–ten shots, ten perfect hits, securing first place in this round and earning War Wolf a valuable point.
After this round, the scores stood as follows:
Dark Panther: deducted one point, now at three. Dragon Soul: no change, staying at three. War Wolf: gained one point, bringing their total to one.
With the competition reaching this stage, the battle between the three teams was growing increasingly

The third round of the sniper event promised to be the most intense yet.
If War Wolf could seize the advantage here, they’d gain a crucial edge going into the final event–a perfect chance for a comeback.
The order for the third round, crucial for the final scores, was determined by a draw held by the War Games Division to ensure fairness.
The lineup: Oliver for Dark Panther, Noah for Dragon Soul, and Ernest for War Wolf.
The draw placed War Wolf first, followed by Dragon Soul and Dark Panther.
While Oliver and Noah weren’t among the army’s top three elite snipers, they were both known for their unmatched skill with the 0.3–mile moving target.
With the draw complete, the match began.
Ernest went first, with his final score determining War Wolf’s fate in the competition.
If he failed badly and lost another point, War Wolf could be eliminated from the tournament.

What they didn’t realize was that, just days ago, the elite War Wolf Special Forces had already seen thist kind of miracle firsthand
But that remarkable feat had been pulled off by Robin, not Ernest,
The War Wolf comrades were all feeling the tension on Ernest’s behalf.
Hitting a moving target nearly a third of a mile away without a scope is incredibly challenging.
Robin once stated at the War Wolf range that a true sniper relies not on their eyes, but on a sixth sense–a feeling from the heart.
Without this sense, a person may become a good sniper, but never the best!
However, relying on instinct and heart to achieve sniper–level precision is an immense challen
Just as everyone anxiously anticipated Ernest’s next move, a gunshot echoed–he’d fired!
But the shot missed entirely, not even grazing the edge of the moving target!
After a moment of silence, laughter erupted from the spectators outside the range.
It seemed War Wolf had truly lost their confidence!
Even Ernest, a top–three–ranked sniper martial arts expert in the whole army, was acting recklessly.
Zayn, watching from the crowd, sneered, “With someone like Robin leading them, it’s no wonder he produces special forces members like Ernest who act so rashly. How can anyone be so careless in a competition like this?
“Even though War Wolf is tied with Dragon Soul at two points, Ernest’s shot essentially signals War Wolfs elimination.
“A top sniper martial artist missing a moving target at 0.3 miles with a single shot. If he misses twice more, War Wolf might as well pack up and head home.”
Elliot frowned.
Zayn had a point!
War Wolf didn’t have many opportunities remaining
If these opportunities slip away, there will be no recovery.
Then, Ernest fired his second shot, followed by the third, fourth, and all the way up to the tenth in quick succession!
Each shot landed squarely on the bullseye!
As the echo of the tenth shot faded, a hush fell over the crowd outside the field.

Everyone was stunned by Ernest’s incredible nine successful shots.
Without a scope, he struck the target every single time
Unfortunately, he missed one of the ten targets.
Otherwise, it would have been one of the most legendary shots ever in 0.3–mile moving target sniping history.
Even so, the crowd outside the field still erupted into warm applause for Ernest.
After finishing his ten shots, Ernest stood motionless, his mood downcast.
He couldn’t shake the frustration over his first miss.
If it hadn’t been for the pressure or the sudden shift in the wind, he believed he could have nailed all ten
shots!
In that case, War Wolf would secure one point.
This would move them into second place in the group, giving them a solid advantage in deciding the final
result.
If the members of Dragon Soul and Dark Panther who follow manage to hit the target ten times as well. then War Wolf will be eliminated.
Noah, the Vice Captain of Dragon Soul, gave Ernest a reassuring pat on the shoulder and said, “Don’t lose heart. Even though War Wolf will probably be eliminated after this match, you’ve got nothing to be upset about, my brother!
“We are brothers no matter where we are. Even after you retire and move on, we’ll always be comrades!”
Ernest didn’t respond to Noah, as his words were already straightforward and clear.
After all, Noah was the champion in the army’s 0.3–mile moving target competition.
He had the ability to deliver a flawless performance by hitting all ten targets.
Since joining Dragon Soul, Noah has set numerous records in the history of 0.3–mile single–direction moving target sniping, with only two misses over the years.
Ernest returned to Robin’s side, feeling apologetic. I’m sorry, Mr. Ramsey, Commander Colton, Colonel Wright. I’ve let you down.”
Robin gave him a reassuring pat on the shoulder. “It’s not your fault! The wind today has been unpredictable. The first shot missed because the wind suddenly shifted, causing your bullet to veer off course. That’s not on you! Take a seat–the competition isn’t over yet. Anything can happen.”
At that moment, Noah had already taken his position at the shooting line.
Bang! One shot, two shots, three shots!

For a brief moment, there was complete silence, followed by many feeling sympathy for him.
The wind suddenly shifted, causing all of Noah’s shots to go off course.
It wasn’t his fault!
Noah stood frozen at the shooting line, completely stunned.
This was his worst performance to date.
How could this happen? His luck had just been terrible!
At first, the wind was blowing from the southeast, but just as he took the final three shots, it suddenly shifted to a northwest breeze!
This unexpected change in the wind caught him completely off guard.

In light of Noah’s performance, the Dragon Soul Special Forces found themselves momentarily stunned.
They had been certain that Noah would secure points in this round of the competition, pulling ahead of Dark Panther and leaving War Wolf’s score in the dust.
To their surprise, Noah made a critical error!
A mistake like this could be devastating
If Oliver, Vice Captain from Dark Panther hits all ten targets in the next round, the Dark Panther Special Forces will lead Group A with four points.
War Wolf Special Forces will stay at one point, while Dragon Soul will hold onto second place with two points.
This outcome is still manageable.
However, there is also an alternative scenario.
This is the outcome that Dragon Soul wants to avoid the most.
In this scenario, Dark Panther would miss two targets, placing them in second.
War Wolf would then take first.
Dark Panther would end up with three points, while War Wolf would gain one more, tying with Dragon Soul for second place at two points each.
In this situation, Dragon Soul has no choice but to defeat War Wolf in the free–fighting round.
If they fail, they face the bleakest outcome, disbandment and restructuring.
Just then, Oliver, Dark Panther’s vice–captain who was the third to compete, approached Noah with a grin and said, “Noah, you’re the champion of the army’s 0.3–mile single–direction moving target shooting. No one has beaten your record yet. What went wrong for you today?
The strange wind nearly ended War Wolf’s chances entirely and cost you your title as the 0.3–mile moving target champion. Three missed shots–just how careless do you have to be for that to happen?”
“Hmph!” Noah shot Oliver a cold look and walked off.
Oliver grinned, saying, “Thanks for demonstrating today’s strange wind patterns for me. I’ll be more careful–certainly won’t miss three shots.”
Noah walk back to his seat with the Dragon Soul Special Forces, clearly irritated. Gavin frowned and remarked, “Noah, what kind of blunder was that? Making such a basic error is just unacceptable!
“Do you believe War Wolf did you a favor by retrieving the two comrades you lost carlier?”
Noah’s temper flared. “Chief Instructor Brooks, that’s an insult to me!

“While I hold deep respect for the War Wolf team, I would never stoop to such actions–it disrespects a worthy opponent!
“Besides, you’re aware that today’s wind is unusually erratic, even the finest sniper could slip up!”
Gavin responded icily, “Stop making excuses! Keep in mind, if Dragon Soul is disqualified, you’ll be the first to remove that uniform and walk away! Even if we’re restructured, I won’t keep you on the team!”
Noah was about to retort, but Morris held him back and guided him back to his seat.
Noah, keep your head up. We still have a shot! Even if Dragon Soul falls short this round, we’re holding onto two points. At the very least, we can make a comeback in the free–fighting phase.”
Noah settled quietly at the end of the table, choosing not to say anything further.
Meanwhile, on the 0.3–mile moving target range, Oliver, the Vice Captain of Dark Panther, had already stepped up to his shooting position.
Oliver took note of the errors Ernest and Noah had made in gauging wind speed, meticulously assessing both the speed and direction before firing his first shot and he nailed the bullseye!
Then came his second and third shots, each finding their mark without fail.
With these three perfect hits, Oliver’s confidence surged, and he prepared for his fourth shot.
Out of nowhere, the wind shifted unpredictably, swirling up a sudden gust, causing Oliver’s fourth shot to miss its mark!
His heart pounded as he aimed for the fifth shot, but it too, veered off target.
Luck seemed to be on War Wolf’s side today, securing their win in this round of the competition.
Determined, Oliver clenched his jaw and concentrated on landing his remaining shots.
Even though all of his shots landed on the target, missing two meant only securing second place.
When the War Wolf Special Forces saw the outcome, their cheers filled the air.
Ernest was shocked to realize that despite missing one shot, they had still earned a crucial point!

The Dark Panther Special Forces erupted in chicers, celebrating their victory.
They had completed their biannual relegation task once again.
Now, Dragon Soul and War Wolf are about to face off in a free–for–all battle that will decide their futures.
In the last round of the competition, the free–for–all match rules will be in effect.
Two members from each team will compete, and the final results will determine which team comes out

With the previous two rounds ending in a 2-2 tie, both teams were evenly matched going into this final

Dragon Soul is now set for a crucial showdown against the War Wolf Special Forces to determine who will avoid relegation.
If Dragon Soul triumphs in the two–on–two battle, War Wolf will be immediately disqualified, and their number will be revoked.
However, if the two teams tie or War Wolf defeats Dragon Soul, another challenge match will be required to decide who gets eliminated.
Dragon Soul holds the top position among the seven main teams in the army after the first three rounds.
As a result, even if War Wolf wins the free–fighting match, they will still need to face a final challenge match to eliminate Dragon Soul and secure their place
War Wolf faces an incredibly tough challenge in both of these matches.
Dragon Soul, under the leadership of General Gavin, ranks second only to General Wilson in the army.
They also boast Bill, the army’s top martial arts expert, and Morris, who is among the top three in free- fighting skills.

As a result, Dragon Soul has the most powerful free–fighting team in the army.
Although Chief Instructor Ramsey is highly skilled, he cannot take part in both the two–on–two match and the challenge match.
The rules of this military martial arts tournament state that each individual can only compete in one of these two events.
If they join the two–on–two match, they will not be allowed to participate in the challenge match.
Considering the overall circumstances, War Wolf’s chances of maintaining their position are quite slim.
Everyone is eagerly anticipating the boxing match between Dragon Soul and War Wolf.

At 7:45 PM, the Free Fighting Arena at the Wolfsbane Summit Military Exercise Base was buzzing with activity. The stands were packed with spectators, eagerly awaiting the event.
By 7:50, 1,000 elite special forces soldiers from the seven major teams of the Special Operations Military Region filed into the viewing area in perfect formation
At 7:55, eight high–ranking officers from the Special Operations Military Region’s top command team settled into the command box.
The elimination round of the triennial military exercise had entered its final phase.
The Fierce Tiger Special Forces had been unable to avoid demotion, leading to the cancellation of their designation and their imminent reorganization.
Meanwhile, the War Wolf Special Forces found themselves on the verge of relegation.
After a day of intense competition, the battle had reached its final stage–the individual free–fighting
arena.
Against all odds, the War Wolf Special Forces had fought their way into the decisive round. To make matters even more dramatic, their opponent in the relegation match was the Dragon Soul Special Forces, who had dominated the first three rounds.
What was once a sure thing for Dragon Soul’s retention had now turned into a tense and uncertain situation.
If Dragon Soul failed to take advantage of the opportunity in tonight’s free fighting match, they would face elimination and the revocation of their designation.
However, the rules for tonight’s competition were different for the two teams.
As Dragon Soul had ranked first in the annual competition, they were the ones being challenged.
To maintain fairness, the military exercise department set the rules for the confrontation match.
If Dragon Soul emerged victorious, War Wolf would be immediately eliminated.
However, if Dragon Soul either tied with or lost to War Wolf, they would be forced to face War Wolf’s challenge.
Once the challenge began, War Wolf could only send one elite from their special forces, while Dragon Soul had three members eligible to participate in the challenge.
In the confrontation match, if War Wolf loses, they will be instantly eliminated and won’t even have the
chance to enter the challenge.
As a result, War Wolf must either win or draw in the free–fighting match to secure their spot in the challenge.
However, the challenge is a one–versus–three scenario, making their chances of winning extremely slim.

This battle will decide which team, War Wolf or Dragon Soul, will be the final one to be eliminated.
The top and bottom teams from the first three rounds of the military competition are now facing off in the free–fighting arena.
It’s a scenario that no one anticipated.
In the eyes of everyone, the War Wolf Special Forces, which had been on a decline in recent years, should have been eliminated in the second round.
Surprisingly, the resilient War Wolf, despite losing a point in the first round of the march and cross- country event, managed to stay close behind Dragon Soul.
In a contest where victory seemed out of reach, they kept finding ways to create opportunities for themselves, ultimately pushing the match to the free fighting arena.
This outcome has already shocked everyone.
Now, everyone is eager to see if War Wolf can once again surpass expectations and pull off a miracle!
At 8:00 PM, the representatives from Dragon Soul and War Wolf stood in the free fighting arena, ready for the showdown.
For this arena match, each team chose two members to compete.
War Wolf selected Mark and Zephyr, both skilled martial experts.
While neither of them placed highly in the military combat competition, failing to make it into the top
ten.
They were all War Wolf had left to rely on for now.
This was in accordance with the rules of the competition.
As the challengers, War Wolf could only send each participant to compete once in the individual events.
Although Ernest is highly skilled in personal combat, he had already competed in the sniper event, which meant he couldn’t participate in the free fighting match.
For Dragon Soul, they chose Bill, the military’s top martial arts expert, along with Norman Tingey, a newcomer to the combat scene.
Morris, the captain of Dragon Soul, is one of the military’s top combat martial experts, ranked among the top five across all units.
Yet, he didn’t step onto the stage.
This decision was a calculated move by Gavin and Morris, made with careful strategy in mind.
If the match were to extend into a challenge round, they wanted to ensure they had enough strength left to face War Wolf’s challenge head–on.

Even though Norman is new, his combat skills are ranked third within Dragon Soul, just after Bill and Morris.
Should Bill and Norman manage to decisively defeat War Wolf’s two martial art experts in this confrontation, there would be no need for a follow–up thallenge round.
However, if the match ends in a tie or War Wolf secures a complete victory, Dragon Soul will still have top fighters ready for the final challenge round. This setup reflects a carefully planned, cautious approach.
The match officially commenced.
First up was Bill from Dragon Soul, facing Mark from War Wolf.
Bill pointed at his opponent and said, “Lieutenant Langdon, with your abilities, you may as well concede. I see no real point in this fight.”
Mark smirked and replied, “Colonel Lineker, even if you’re known as the military’s top combat expert, it doesn’t mean you’re unbeatable.
“Even if you’re the top combat expert, I won’t let Dragon Soul take this point easily. Let’s get started!”
As he finished speaking, Bill unleashed a rapid series of punches toward Mark.
To his surprise, Mark, who hadn’t even ranked in the top ten in the army’s fighting competitions, was proving to be a much tougher opponent than he’d expected.
The first three punches were powerful and swift, yet none came close to hitting Mark.
To add to Bill’s frustration, this champion of the army’s combat competition found himself caught off guard by Mark’s quick moves.
Bill even lost his balance for a moment, nearly toppling under his opponent’s counter. He inhaled sharply regaining his focus.
The arena burst into cheers, clearly directed toward Mark.
During this intense exchange, Bill recognized a shift in Mark’s punching style.
Bill, known for his own powerful and swift strikes, had earned his title as one of the top martial experts in the army, but Mark’s surprising adaptability challenged him
He employed smooth and flowing techniques to redirect his opponent’s attacks.
This forced Bill to struggle with his strategy.
On several occasions, Mark’s precise use of force nearly sent Bill tumbling to the ground.
Bill’s impatience and aggressive approach quickly drained his energy.
Mark recalled something Robin had once said to him: You might lose this round, but Bill’s pride won’t let
him lose.”
With that thought in mind, he remained patient and focused, letting Bill exhaust himself and slip up.

On the other hand, Gavin had made it clear that Bill had to win this round no matter what.
Bill, however, never anticipated that he wouldn’t be able to perform at his best in front of Mark.
The more Bill rushed, the more disordered his moventents became, which opened up an opportunity f Mark.
As Bill threw a powerful punch at Mark’s chest, Mark intentionally left an opening in his defense, pretending to be too slow to react.
Bill seized the opening without hesitation.
Instead of holding back, he channeled all his energy into the punch.
His body lunged toward Mark, determined to land a powerful hit.
If it connected, it would surely knock Mark down.
But just as Bill’s fist was about to make contact, Mark unexpectedly flipped backward, evading the strike.
With a fluid backflip, Mark skillfully avoided the punch that could have ended the fight.
Bill’s punch, now fully committed, missed its target, causing him to lose his footing and stumble forward.
As Mark landed from his flip, he quickly moved aside to dodge Bill, who was now off–balance. In a swift motion, Mark landed a strong kick to Bill’s rear.
Bang! Bill’s resilient body was sent flying by the powerful kick, crashing heavily beneath the ring.
The first round goes to War Wolf!

The top combat expert of the Special Operations Military Region and ace of Dragon Soul Special Forces, Colonel Bill Lineker, had been defeated by Lieutenant Mark Langdon of War Wolf Special Forces.
Lieutenant Langdon had never previously ranked in the top ten of the campwide combat competitions.
Dragon Soul Special Forces had suffered a major setback today indeed.
Bill’s defeat marked the early conclusion of the two–on–two match.
Regardless of the outcome of the next fight, both teams would need to compete in the nal challenge
match.
Dragon Soul had missed the perfect chance to eliminate War Wolf outright in the two–on–two round of the free combat competition.
Two of Dragon Soul’s soldiers quickly helped Bill back to their formation.
The seething Gavin scolded him grimly, “This is absurd! Do you have any idea how much trouble your performance is going to cause my entire plan?
“By rights, Dragon Soul could have wiped out War Wolf completely in this match, securing our advancement to the next stage. Your mistake has forced us into the brutal challenge match!”
Bill hung his head low and said resignedly, “Chief Instructor Brooks, this is my fault. I was too careless.”
“Careless?” Gavin retorted sharply. “You think a simple careless‘ makes this acceptable? If Dragon Soul disbands, you’ll be the first one packing to go home!”
Bill lowered his head in shame, his heart weighed down with remorse.
Was it really my mistake just now?
He carefully reviewed Mark’s fighting tactics in his mind. If he had to face Mark again, he couldn’t say with confidence that he’d secure a victory.
How did Mark manage to improve so much in just one month?
Bill reflected on today’s match. He was certain that General Robin, War Wolf’s new chief instructor, was the main reason Dragon Soul was defeated.
He had fully prepared for this round and deployed Mark accordingly.
Furthermore, he instructed Mark to use the finesse of deflecting force to neutralize Bill’s aggressive
attacks.
Robin was an exceptionally skilled commander!
Throughout the match, he demonstrated advanced strategizing techniques in organizing the lineup and perfected his soldiers‘ combat skills to an extraordinary level.

Bill couldn’t help but compare Robin to Gavin. He saw Robin as a commander who stood unwavering in the face of any challenge.
Even when disaster struck, Robin remained unfazed.
It seemed the entire match had been under Robin’s control from the very beginning.
Despite the unexpected setbacks in the first weight–bearing cross–country race, Robin was still able to seize every crucial opportunity.
This is why the seemingly fragile War Wolf couldn’t be defeated!
It sparked a deep curiosity in Bill about Robin.
Anyone facing such an opponent would face a terrifying disaster!
Even the mighty Dragon Soul was no exception!
Bill had an ominous feeling that the final result would be Dragon Soul being defeated and eliminated by War Wolf.
Bill’s unexpected defeat led
Gavin to decide to replace Norman, who was about to compete in the fight.
According to the tournament rules, whether Dragon Soul drew or lost to War Wolf in this round, they would be forced to participate in the “challenge match.
Now, they had to conserve their strength in preparation for the upcoming challenge match.
For the final two–on–two match, Gavin decided to replace Norman with the weakest fighter on the team.
The War Games Division approved Gavin’s request and swapped out Norman.
Zephyr took just one round to take down the new fighter deployed by Dragon Soul.
That meant War Wolf triumphed over Dragon Soul in the two–on–two round, and they were about to enter the most thrilling and fierce challenge match.
If War Wolf won the challenge, Dragon Soul would be eliminated and disbanded!
If not, the reverse would occur.
War Wolf had a rough start to today’s first match, yet they struggled until they reached the final challenge match, which was no easy feat.
The chief instructors of the Seven Military Teams had gained a completely new understanding of the young general, Robin.
Robin had somehow miraculously led the not–so–powerful War Wolf Special Forces into the final challenge match against Dragon Soul.

However, their past tactics were completely useless against the current War Wolf, and all they faced was one defeat after another.
Zayn, Elliott, and the others in the stands were utterly astonished by the situation unfolding before them.
The scene before them was something they had never anticipated.
Elliott said excitedly, “It looks like Dragon Soul will be packing up and leaving today insed of War Wolf.
“Chief Instructor Robin is truly a genius!
“He has led War Wolf, which had been at the bottom for years, into the challenge match!
“It seems like luck is on War Wolf’s side tonight. With Mr. Robin leading them, they’ll surely defeat Dragon Soul!”
Zayn sneered, “Elliott, did you forget that Dragon Soul has General Brooks at the helm? More importantly, Dragon Soul still has some hidden trump cards left!
“Commander Fennimore is one of the top three fighters in the army. Even if Ernest steps up, he won’t be able to defeat both Morris and Gavin at once.”
Elliott chuckled. “What if Mr. Robin joins the match himself?”
Zayn snorted. “That would be even better. I trust my master’s abilities!
“In the entire army, my master’s abilities are second only to the war god, Major General Wilson.
“With those two around, Robin wouldn’t stand a chance of winning the challenge match!”
Michelle looked at Zayn with admiration and said, “Zayn, you’re absolutely right.
“General Brooks is no ordinary man. He will surely turn the tide and help Dragon Soul win the competition.
“The people from War Wolf have only made it this far by sheer luck! The challenge match isn’t something they can win by chance. Even if Robin himself joins the match, it won’t help much
Catherine gazed impassively toward Robin. “Not necessarily! If he managed to drag the struggling War Wolf all the way to the challenge match, he must have an even better plan up his sleeve.
“Robin’s arrangements are all aimed at defeating Dragon Soul in the challenge match! It’s likely he’ll enter the ring himself—that may just be his ultimate card.”
Michelle shook her head. “Even if Robin steps up, he doesn’t stand a chance against Dragon Soul’s top three fighters.”

Once the ten–minute break was up, Major General Xavier from the War Games Division announced the start of the ultimate challenge.
According to the rules, War Wolf had to face three Dragon Soul fighters one–on–one, requiring a complete three–win streak to win the match.
Dragon Soul would have three defenders, but War Wolf could only select one challenger.
As the defending side, Dragon Soul would claim victory if any of its three fighters defeated War Wolf’s challenger.
After Major General Xavier gave the signal to start, the three Dragon Soul fighters stepped into the arena.
Gavin, Dragon Soul’s chief instructor, was the first to enter the ring, knowing he had to secure Dragon Soul’s victory in this match.
Next up, Dragon’s Soul Commander Morris took up the second position, followed by Dragon Soul’s rising all–around star, Norman.
Gavin stood at the edge of the fighting ring and pointed at Robin, who was seated in the audience. “General Ramsey, your plan has gone exactly as you intended. Now that Dragon Soul has finally been dragged into this challenge, you’re free to step up and fight.”
Robin smirked slightly. “Yes, this was one of my intended outcomes. But I didn’t set things up so I could get involved myself.
“As a chief instructor, if I had to step into every fight, I’d be failing at my job.”
Silence soon fell over the arena.
If Robin wasn’t stepping in, which member of War Wolf would be brave enough to face Gavin, Morris, and Norman–the military’s top three fighters?
All eyes turned to the War Wolf Special Forces formation, wondering who Robin would choose as War Wolf’s challenger against Dragon Soul.
Would it be Ernest or Freya?
Gavin sneered. “Robin, this is the final battle for the survival of the War Wolf Special Forces, not some
petty
debate over rank or status.
“Even if you were to step into the ring, could you guarantee you’d beat me and Commander Fennimore?
“If you’re too afraid to face me head–on, don’t make excuses!
“Dragging the match out with tricks is just a cheap way to gain fame.

“Now, at this crucial moment, you won’t even step up to face us directly. Are you only capable of plotting behind our backs?”
Robin raised an eyebrow and said, “You don’t need to try to provoke me. I won’t step into the challenge match. It’s not that I’m afraid; it’s just that I don’t need to step up to win against you.
“If General Brooks really wants to test your combat skills against me, wait until the challenge match is over, and I’ll be happy to oblige!
“But I hope you won’t regret it.”
“Alright, it’s settled then!” Gavin immediately responded and turned to address the special forces elites. “Everyone, did you hear Instructor Ramsey? Regardless of whether War Wolf or Dragon Soul is eliminated after the challenge match, I’ll have a one–on–one duel with him!”
In an instant, thunderous applause erupted in the Free Fighting Arena.
Morris furrowed his brow and asked, “General Ramsey, which comrade will War Wolf send for this match? Is it Colonel Rudwick or Colonel Wright?”
Robin shook his head. “There’s no need for Colonel Rudwick to fight in this match. I won’t need to send him to defeat you!”
“Talia Cross!” Before Morris could continue questioning, Robin shouted loudly.
“Here!” Talia immediately stood up.
“Colonel Cross, do you have confidence in winning this match?”
“Me?” Talia was stunned. “You want me to fight in this life–or–death battle? You want to put the fate of War Wolf in my hands?”
“Don’t tell me you’re afraid?” Robin retorted coldly.
“Of course not! What’s there to be afraid of?” Talia answered firmly. “But I’m up against General Brooks and Commander Fennimore, after all. I just wanted to double–check.”
Robin said coldly, “On the battlefield, are you really going to wait until the easier opponents come along?
“You’ve faced so many formidable fighters in Dragon Ridge Valley, and now you’re afraid of the few before you?”
“I’m not afraid!” Talia shouted loudly.
Robin responded impassively, “If you’re not afraid, then step up and win this match! To survive against strong opponents, you must be willing to face death.”
“Yes, Sir! I promise I’ll win this match!” Talia yelled, flipping into the fighting ring.

Silas looked at Robin, puzzled by the arrangement. “General Ramsey, is this really going to work?”
Robin nodded. “Of course it will! Colonel Cross is War Wolf’s secret weapon. I’ve kept her here all along just for her to take on this challenge!”
Gavin, Morris, and Norman stood speechless as they watched the young colonel standing confidently before them.
After a long silence, Gavin couldn’t contain his anger any longer and demanded, “Robin, are you trying to insult Dragon Soul?”
Robin raised an eyebrow. “Gavin, you’ve been a soldier for nearly 20 years. Aren’t you ashamed to say something like that?
“If you want respect from your opponent, you must fully respect them first!
“On a real battlefield, nobody cares about your past achievements or rank!
“Stop wasting time. Either fight, or get off and switch out!”
Gavin’s face flushed with anger, leaving him momentarily speechless.
From the audience, Catherine watched Talia standing confidently on stage, and a strange sense of jealousy washed over her.
Robin had given Talia this final shot at glory!
Talia’s combat abilities weren’t exactly top–tier within the Special Operations Military Region, or even within War Wolf Special Forces.
Was Robin truly not afraid of her losing the match?
Catherine’s mind wandered back to that bloody night in Dragon Ridge Valley. Under Robin’s guidance, Talia and Freya had defeated many formidable opponents from the World of Darkness.
Reflecting on it now, she realized Robin hadn’t chose to deploy Talia on a whim.
From the very start of the match, Robin had positioned himself as an instructor, guiding War Wolf’s every move and mindset.

But when she saw Zayn’s expression, she suddenly didn’t feel like explaining anymore.
Michelle shook her head in disdain. “I honestly didn’t expect him to have the nerve to send Talia to fight against military legends like Morris and Gavin.
“This isn’t just any match where he could fight for fun. This is about the future and fate of the 60 members of War Wolf Special Forces.

Not only did some of the onlookers in the stands question Robin’s command, but even the high–ranking officers in the observation booth were left bewildered by how Robin handled things.
Everyone believed that since War Wolf had made it to the final challenge match after such a tough battle, Robin himself would step in to help secure the win.
If that had been the case, the outcome of the match would have been almost certain.
After all, just days ago, Wilson had personally experienced Robin’s combat skills firsthand.
He couldn’t even withstand a single move from Robin.

Simon stared blankly for a moment. “Robin’s joking, right?

“Gavin’s s combat kills are on par with Wilson’s. But Robin’s having Talia step in and fight him? Is that really a good idea?”
Jack pointed at Talia, who stood confidently on the stage, looking like a warrior. “Look at your Talia–she’s like a bull, full of energy and strength, almost the same as when you were young.”
Simon glared at Jack. “Old man, was I ever this reckless when I was young?”
He shook his head quietly. “Talia definitely has the same vigor I had when I was younger! But when it comes to competitions, true strength is what matters! I’m worried Gavin might hit too hard and injure my precious daughter.”
Jack smiled. “We don’t even know who’s fighting today, but since Robin’s putting Talia on the stage, he’ll make sure she’s safe. Don’t worry. Your baby daughter will be fine.
“Robin wouldn’t mess around with the future of War Wolf at stake.
“You saw it yourself–from the start of the match to now, Robin has planned everything carefully and seamlessly.
“Gavin’s been completely outwitted by Robin. Too bad Dragon Soul is about to be disbanded.”
“You mean Dragon Soul has no chance of winning today?” Simon asked casually.
Jack nodded seriously. “Of course! With someone like Robin as the opponent, it’s a disaster for anyone.”
Simon smiled. “Now that you say it, I’m interested. This girl couldn’t get anywhere in Security Bureau Investigation Division 7. However, after spending just a few days in War Wolf, she’s leading the fight against that old man Gavin.
“Talia, beat him, go for it!” Simon immediately stood up and yelled, causing the entire arena to fall silent!
By this point, the match in the ring had begun, with Norman stepping up as the first fighter for Dragon Soul,

Gavin believed that Norman alone could defeat Talia without needing him to enter the ring.

Being the rising all–around star of Dragon Soul, Norman indeed possessed exceptional combat skills.
From his punches and stance, it was clear he had received training from Gavin.
He struck with steady precision, delivering each punch without haste or impatience..
His strikes were powerful but not without a subtle finesse, blending strength with hidden lethality.
Every move he executed left room for adjustments, making him flawless with no vulnerabilities.
In the beginning, Talia found it difficult to deal with Norman’s fluid blend of power and technique in free fighting.
However, Robin shouted his advice to Talia, causing her to immediately turn the tide of the match.
“You can only win against such an opponent with speed!”
As Robin’s words rang out, Talia immediately understood his meaning.
Talia’s greatest strength was her agility, making her far more nimble than the large and bulky Norman.
Talia was darting around in no time, leaving Norman dizzy with her movements.
Norman’s rhythm was quickly thrown off balance by Talia’s rapid movements.
At the exact moment Norman made a desperate strike, Talia seized her chance, leaping in with a kick that sent Norman crashing to the ground.
Norman scrambled to rise in desperation.
But to his surprise, Talia was already standing in front of him, landing a powerful punch to his carotid artery that knocked him unconscious in an instant.
The crowd fell into a brief silence, only to erupt in astonishment.
“Wow, this woman is ruthless!”
“If she puts in any more force, Norman will be done for!”
“It’s a life–or–death fight! You can’t hold back in this kind of battle!”
Morris suddenly stood up, his eyes fixed on Norman’s convulsing body in the ring. He quickly climbed into the arena.
“You–you’re going too far!”
Talia glanced at him. “If I don’t go all out, wouldn’t he have taken me down? Commander Fennimore, what do you think?”
The crowd burst into laughter at Talia’s words. Morris shook his head. “Alright, alright, let’s continue!”
Talia noticed a flash of anger in his eyes and instinctively stepped back. Robin seized the opportunity and4

He hadn’t anticipated that Talia would launch such a merciless attack on his defenseless lower body.
The main point was the attack was aimed to break Morris’s bloodline!
The soldiers encircling the Free Fighting Arena were terrified by Talia’s lethal maneuver.
“Whoa, that’s a brutal strike! If Commander Fennimore takes that hit… well, it’s game over for him!”
On instinct, Morris stepped back just in time, twisting his body to dodge the fatal kick.
Yet, Talia seized the moment with pinpoint precision.
Just as he sidestepped, she saw an opening and drove her foot straight into his armpit.
Thud! Thud! Thud! Morris swayed backward from the pain, nearly tumbling off the edge of the ring in his struggle to regain his balance.
A collective gasp echoed through the arena, with bewilderment etched on the spectators‘ faces.
Morris himself was left breathless. He was drenched in a fresh wave of sweat.
No wonder Robin had chosen Talia.
She was fearless!
Though her tricks were fierce, they were flawless for a life–or–death match like this one.
He inhaled deeply, locking eyes with her as she stood under the harsh glare of the spotlight, radiating murderous aura.
Now Morris acknowledged her as a true opponent for the first time.
A moment later, an intense, ferocious energy surged from him, wrapping the ring in an icy aura that sent a shiver down every spine in the crowd.
Morris wasn’t ranked among the top three martial arts experts in the military for nothing.
Earlier, he had felt a hint of sympathy for Talia, the rookie who hadn’t been with the War Wolf for long.
However, there would be no mercy after that attack.
This wasn’t just any sparring match.
This was a battle that could decide the fate of Dragon Soul Special Forces!
It has nothing to do with individuals.
Ile took a deep breath and dropped into his combat stance.

The crowd glanced at Talia with sympathy, their looks of pity extending to the entire War Wolf team.
This might be the War Wolf team’s final battle.
If Commander Fennimore got serious, there’s little hope Talia can pass.
The arena fell silent, as tense as a forest at dawn.
Everyone held their breath, waiting for the moment when Morris, who ranks third in the military free fighting, struck a thunderous blow!
Just as Morris prepared to unleash his power, Talia suddenly raised a hand, signaling for him to pause. “Commander Fennimore, hold on a sec.”
In that instant, the intense aura he’d gathered seemed to drain from him, leaving him slightly off–balance.
“Mr. Robin.” Talia glanced over, her tone almost nonchalant. “Where should I aim?”
Robin’s expression remained impassive. “Attack him without holding back. Go for his weakest spot, the place he fears most, where it hurts the most.”
Talia’s eyes flickered with understanding as she looked down at Morris’s lower defenses. “Got it!”
Morris barely had a moment to process what was happening. He just saw Talia launch herself at him, aiming a fierce kick straight at his lower abdomen.
He noticed her charging forward, wide open, with no signs of defensive caution.
Her intentions were obvious, ruthless assaults on his most sensitive part!
He scrambled back; his steps quick and staggered, struggling to dodge this unrelenting style of attack.
Talia’s persistence was terrifying; she had zero intention of backing down, fully committed to hitting him where it’d hurt the most.
This isn’t a joke! A man’s pride and honor are at stake here!
However, after successive setbacks, he soon found himself out of room to maneuver.
If he continued to retreat, he would eventually reach the edge of the ring.
Suddenly, his foot missed the mark, slipping over the boundary.
Fortunately, his fundamental abilities were strong, and he immediately jumped to the other side of the ring with a spinning somersault.
Yet the moment he turned, Talia was already closing in her fists and feet targeting the same spot with alarming speed.
Morris was utterly flustered by Talia’s relentless, unconventional assault..
The soldiers watching were dumbfounded. “What’s Colonel Cross’s strategy here?” one asked, astonished. “She’s hitting just one spot, again and again. Looks like she’s not stopping until she defeats Commander
Fennimore!”

Mark looked at Talia’s reckless approach with an impressed smile. “Man, this move is genius! She’s got our Commander Fennimore on the ropes like never before. I’ve never seen anyone else pull this off!”
Ernest nodded, grinning. “Now that’s what I call effective! Colonel Cross has mastered Instructor Ramsey’s philosophy.”
“On the battlefield, no one cares what kind of move you use to take down the enemy. The only rule is to finish the job!”
“Yeah, I think I just learned the best lesson ever from Colonel Cross today.”
At this moment, Talia continued her onslaught, her every kick aimed ruthlessly at Morris’s vulnerable lower area.
Forced into a near–constant retreat, Morris was almost like he was backpedaling in reverse gear, struggling to dodge her strikes.
Talia fought with a wild, open style, exposing herself to counterattacks but charging forward relentlessly.
Her speed was terrifying; each kick was faster than the last.
It practically gave her opponent no time to consider anything else.
Even an agile and skilled martial art expert, as Morris, could barely keep up.
Seeing Talia’s suicidal determination, Morris was helpless.
He let out a frustrated roar, ready to make a hard fight.
Leaping into the air, he spun over her, aiming to land behind and counterattack.
Unfortunately, Talia had already predicted that Morris would be forced to use this trick.
She spun with no hesitation and threw a fierce hook kick behind her. Before Morris could find his balance, her strike landed right on his unguarded abdomen.
He gasped, doubling over and clutching his stomach, dropping to his knees.
Seizing her chance, Talia pivoted, raising her leg high before bringing it down in a powerful axe kick. Her heel crashed down onto the side of Morris’s neck, slamming his carotid artery with brutal precision.
A heavy thud echoed through the arena.
Morris, one of the military’s top three fighters, had been knocked out cold by a single, well–placed axe kick from Talia, a so–called rookie, who had just joined the ranks.
“Wow, Colonel Cross has finally won!”
“D–Did she just beat Commander Fennimore?”
The arena fell into stunned silence, every eye fixed on Talia standing alone in the center of the arena.
“No wonder Instructor Ramsey put her up there. Turns out she’s got real skill!” someone whispered.

Talia blinked in disbelief, then broke into laughter. “I won … I beat Commander Fennimore?! Hahaha…*
Overflowing with excitement, she leaped off the platform and dove straight into Robin’s arms, planting a jubilant kiss on his cheek.
Thunderous applause and shouts filled the arena, a storm of celebration that even the Dragon Soul Special Forces joined in, unable to hold back their admiration.
However, as their cheers subsided, they caught sight of Gavin’s grim expression, and the atmosphere quieted at once.
At that moment, everyone had the same question in mind: Could Talia, fresh from this unexpected victory, stand a chance against the legendary warrior of the military himself, General Brooks?

Xavier, Major General of the War Games Division announced, “Only one match remains in this round of the challenge! Major General Gavin Brooks will fight against Colonel Talia Cross!”
After this match, either War Wolf or Dragon Soul would face elimination.
An intense silence descended over the crowd.
Gavin’s expression darkened as he leaped onto the stage. He cast a cold glance at War Wolf’s coach and declared, “Instructor Ramsey of War Wolf, I want you to change your fighter! I have no desire to clash with a rookie who’s just joined your ranks!”
Before he even finished speaking, Simon on the supervisor stage slapped his hand on his desk and stood up. “Gavin, what did you just say?!”
Startled, Gavin turned to face Simon, his mind spinning in confusion.
After a moment of thought, he finally understood that Simon was Talia’s father!
Moreover, he also knew that Simon had only had this daughter at 40 and loved her a lot!
He treasured her like a gem!
“Mr. Cross, what I meant was, I’m concerned I might accidentally hurt her. She’s not ready to face me!”
However, before he could finish his argument, Talia had already moved. Her foot connected sharply with Gavin’s back, sending him staggering forward.
Simon was taken aback
Well, that was a bit ruthless!
Gavin, completely unprepared for the sudden attack, lost his balance and stumbled back several steps, nearly falling off the ring.
“What?! How dare you ambush me?” Gavin yelled violently.
Talia crossed her arms, smirking. “Are you going to fight or not? If not, Dragon Soul can admit defeat right
now!”
Gavin’s face turned red with fury, his mustache twitching. “You disrespectful rookie! Is that your way to talk to … ?”
Simon’s voice rang out coldly, “Gavin! My daughter stands here as a representative of War Wolf. Whether she’s a rookie or a 20–year–old colonel, she’s your opponent in this ring! Show her the respect any worthy opponent deserves!”
Gavin seethed, but he forced himself to hold back his anger. “Mr. Cross, what if I accidentally injure her?”

Gavin rolled around and got up from the ground because he was worried that Talia would ambush him again, he clamored while posing in a defensive posture. “That was a sneak attack! You’re breaking the rules! I’m filing a complaint! War Wolf is violating the rules!”
Unfortunately, his outburst only earned him looks of disdain from the other soldiers.
Xavier rose from his seat and called out, “Chief Instructor Brooks, by the rules, the match begins the moment you step into the ring. Your repeated requests to change opponents are actually against protocol.
“We’ve been lenient because we understand your concerns for the younger fighters. But that’s enough. Now, let’s continue the match.”
Gavin knew Xavier was right.
If he kept complaining, it would only make him look ridiculous.
Swallowing his anger, he pointed at Talia. “Fine. If you’re determined to fight me, don’t expect me to hold back!”
“Who told you to be merciful? I’ve already knocked out two of your team members! You’d better worry about yourself,” she shot back with a smirk. “If you won’t respect your opponent, I’ll make sure you hit the floor just like the rest!”
The crowd, which had been holding their breath, suddenly erupted into laughter and applause.
Many of the soldiers cheered for Talia.
From the sidelines, Simon pounded the table with pride. “Way to go, Colonel Cross!” he shouted.
Jack, a colleague, nudged him. “Simon, you’re going a little overboard. You outrank Gavin by a star. You, father and daughter, are targeting Gavin together. This is not good!”
Simon cleared his throat, looking mildly sheepish. “You’re right. Fine, let them fight. That j*rk Gavin, if he dares to hurt my daughter, I’ll be down there to knock him out myself.”
Jack laughed, shaking his head. “Calm down, Simon. It’s a match. Gavin knows where to draw the line.”
Meanwhile, Gavin was simmering with anger.
As a battle–hardened fighter, one with the same rank as Wilson, he was renowned in the field.
Yet today, he’d been openly provoked by a War Wolf’s rookie like Talia repeatedly.
Enough was enough!
Taking a deep breath, he glared at her, his voice low but seething. “Alright, Colonel Cross. Since you’re so insistent on this fight, I’ll show you the meaning of respect.”

After saying that, an icy aura surged from Gavin, so intense that Talia felt her courage faker.
For the first time, she grasped that a truly powerful opponent could unsettle her just with their presence. A shiver ran down her spine, and without thinking, she turned and bolted.
Gavin blinked in confusion, his fist swinging through empty air as Talia dashed to the other side of the ring
“What? Are you stop fighting?” he called, staring in surprise at her retreating figure. “Why are you running”
Gavin looked at Talia’s back desperately running to the other side of the ring, suddenly startled, and shouted, “Why aren’t you fighting anymore?
Talia shouted defiantly over her shoulder, “The match in’t over! Of course, I’m still fighting”
“Then, why are you running around? Gavin asked, striding after her, his frustration mounting
Yet Talia wasn’t throwing a single punch or kick; instead, she was sprinting in circles around the platform as if her life depended on it, leaving Gavin dizzy and exasperated.
Finally, he stopped chasing her and planted himself in the center of the ring, baffled.
Talia continued her wild laps, darting around him again and again, until Cavin was nearly lulled to sleep from watching her antics.
Gavin stupidly looked at Talia, who had been circling in circles, before he let out an exasperated shout, “Are you going to fight or not? Why are you just running around the ring?

She looked like she was running away–was she trying to deceive her rival?
Or had Gavin’s overwhelming presence intimidated her?
The War Wolf’s soldiers were even more puzzled, their minds clouded with questions.
The hearts of the 60 elite special forces soldiers hung in suspense.
Talia’s behavior suggested she might be running away because she couldn’t fight Gavin head–on.
Gavin had never faced an opponent like her since joining the free–fighting competition.
What kind of move is this?
Is she just playing around by herself?

Talia was right!
But d*mn, it was getting under his skin!
The younger generation these days had no respect for combat honor!
Gavin’s frustration bubbled up with no place to release it. He decided he was going to teach this rookie a lesson!
With a roar, he charged at Talia.
As Gavin rushed toward her, Talia immediately turned and ran.
In an instant, everyone saw the once–feared war hero, Gavin, frantically chasing Talia as she zigzagged across the ring!

Several times, Talia nearly got hit by Gavin’s punch.
Yet Gavin couldn’t land a single blow, only grazing past her!

It was incredible.
Finally, Gavin ran out of steam. He stopped in the middle of the ring and growled, “Are you going to fight or not? How long do you plan to continue running like this?”
Talia stopped, facing him with a sneer. “General Brooks, how I fight is my business. If you can’t beat me, you can surrender now!”
Exasperated, Gavin shouted, “Then stop running and fight me! If I can’t even land a blow on you, what’s the point of continuing this fight?!”
Talia snorted and rebuked, “Hmph! Now you’re admitting that you can’t defeat me! Let me tell you, this is my strategy! Strategy, do you understand?
“Didn’t you learn in your military theory classes that when the enemy is stronger and you’re weaker, you can use tactics like retreating when they advance, disturbing them when they pause, attacking when they tire, and pursuing when they retreat? It’s guerrilla warfare!
“Until you’ve worn your opponent down, making them too weak to continue fighting!
“This is the most important part of the entire competition!
“Don’t you get it? How can you win if you don’t even understand this?
“In this world, strength alone doesn’t make someone truly powerful!
“The weak can be unbeatable with intelligence and wisdom!
“Our army has risen from nothing, from weakness to strength!
“Only with enough wisdom can you defeat those who seem invincible but without substance!”
Gavin was stunned by Talia’s logic.
Did she actually apply guerrilla warfare tactics to this?
Suddenly, a wave of enthusiastic applause erupted.
At that moment, Colonel Talia Cross, who represented War Wolf, had completely taken control of the rhythm of the entire match.
With her sharp mind, she had won the support and admiration of every soldier in the arena.
By now, it was clear–this final challenge match had turned into Talia’s show, and her, popularity was on
the rise.
Before Gavin could react, Talia leaped into the air and delivered a powerful kick.
The kick landed squarely on Gavin’s shoulder.
Had it not been for Gavin’s impressive combat skills, that kick might have ended the fight.
Stumbling back a few steps, Gavin broke into sweat.

Looking down at the arena floor, he realized that if he took even one more step back, he would fall right off the edge.
“You! You little brat! How dare you use such a dirty trick to ambush me?” Gavin growled.
Talia stood on the opposite side of the ring, hands on her hips, coldly laughing. “This is called a surprise attack! Or as they say, all is fair in war!
“Looks like you need to retake your military theory class!
“An officer who doesn’t understand tactics–how are you supposed to win a battle?
“Mr. Robin told me this!
“There’s no battle that can’t be won, only fools who don’t understand methods and tactics!
“Underestimate your enemy strategically, but respect them tactically!
“If you don’t understand strategy, you’ll never form a top–tier team and a top–tier fighter!
“In this world, the truly powerful aren’t just strong physically; it’s the strength of the mind that matters!”
Talia’s words once again triggered wild applause from the audience.
Gavin nearly rolled his eyes in frustration. “You young people lack respect for the honor of battle!

Talia struck a fighting stance. She challenged, “And I’m going to show you how thoughts can destroy everything!”
Gavin stood his ground, summoning all his strength.
This time, he was determined to use his brute force to teach this rookie who had repeatedly challenged him a lesson.
Talia stood still haughtily. Suddenly, she began to throw punches and kicks in the air, as though striking at Gavin from a distance.
Her actions stunned the soldiers in the arena.
Is she really going all out?
She was a few feet away from Gavin, and all she was doing was throwing punches and kicks at nothing.
What is she doing?
Gavin stared at Talia, flailing her limbs like some sort of circus act, completely frozen.

Talia stopped, hands on her hips, and taunted, “What’s with all the excuses? Have you chickened out? Are you going to fight or not?! If not, just admit defeat!”
Gavin’s anger reached its peak.
With a roar, he lunged toward Talia at lightning speed.
This time, Talia not only ran around the ring, but she also ran in a different direction.
She began spinning in circles, centered around Gavin, with a radius of about nine feet.
She rapidly increased the speed of her spins, switching between clockwise and counterclockwise rotation.
Gavin, like a cat chasing a mouse, couldn’t catch her no matter what.
What Gavin didn’t know was that Talia had a special skill.
Only members of Investigation Division 7 knew about it.
During her aviation training, no matter how many times she spun or how fast, she never got dizzy.
Her speed was unmatched in the division’s competitive events, and in the Special Operations Military Region, no one had come close to matching it.
At that moment, Talía seemed to glide effortlessly around Gavin, spinning with the precision of a combat
expert.
She made Gavin dizzy with her continuous motion!

Gavin immediately understood what Talia was trying to achieve by continuously running from the start.
Her exceptional ability to spin while running was something Gavin could never compare to.
Having spent many years in the military, Gavin had mastered top–notch skills in every area.
However, his ability to spin in the air was lacking–just one quick rotation and he would feel dizzy.
Because of this, he dreaded facing opponents who mastered techniques like the Circlewind Fist.
If his opponent began to use specific footwork and he was unable to defeat them instantly, winning the match would become nearly impossible.
But Talia’s speed was far superior to that of any Circlewind Fist practitioner.
For the first time, Gavin felt a sense of insecurity in front of a junior.
Talia’s spins before him, dazzling and unrelenting.
It seemed like there were countless Talia spinning around him, and each rotation only sped up.
Gavin swung his fists with all his might and kicked his legs in full force.
But every attack missed completely.
His frantic movements were just him fighting the air.
At that moment, Gavin on the arena was like a madman, throwing everything he had at a phantom enemy.
A storm of punches and kicks rained down, and then everything went black before his eyes.
He felt a sharp blow to his lower back. Suddenly, his body lifted off the ground, no longer under his control.
Gavin struggled to regain control, but it felt as if he were a kite with its string cut, floating aimlessly.
Immediately after, Talia closed in and launched another powerful kick, landing squarely on Gavin’s rear.
The force of the kick sent him flying off the arena.
With a loud thud, the combat center at Wolfsbane Summit went silent in an instant.
Gayin was knocked off the arena?
Talia, a rookie who had only joined the War Wolf division less than a month ago, had just defeated the legendary military hero!

Gavin, sitting on the ground below the arena, was speechless.
He couldn’t understand how this match had turned into such a disastrous, humiliating defeat.

“I dispute the final result of this match!”
The combat center fell silent once more.
Gavin’s outburst had stripped him of all dignity..

At this moment, Gavin no longer cared about his pride. He pointed at Talia and angrily shouted, “Do you dare to fight me again?”
“Why not? I can still defeat you using the same tactics! Talia was about to climb back onto the arena when Robin stopped her.

The Free Combat Arena was once again filled with a tense silence.
The silence stirred a sense of feverish anticipation.
Everyone was eagerly awaiting this clash of the titans.
After joining War Wolf, rumors had spread about Robin’s incredible skills.
But aside from the War Wolf’s elite forces, no one had seen him in action.
Now, Robin had taken the stage, declaring that the previous matches didn’t count. Only his duel with Gavin would determine the fate of both War Wolf and Dragon Soul.
Though it was an audacious statement, Gavin and all of Dragon Soul’s elite forces had no counter to it.
No matter how Talia had fought, the result was clear, and it was entirely within the rules.
Gavin, however, insisted on refusing to accept the defeat.
Robin had agreed to his rude demand.
If Gavin lost again in the upcoming match, he would lose all his dignity.

Robin had easily defeated Wilson, the military god of war, with a single punch.
He still remembered how had been just as defiant before the match.
“General Brooks, are you sure you want to face General Ramsey in a one–on–one duel?” Xavier asked, shaking his head.
“What if you lose again?”
Gavin sneered, “Unless he relies on guerrilla tactics like Colonel Cross and refuses to fight me head–on, I’m confident I can defeat him in three moves!”
“Fine!” Robin responded coldly before Xavier could interrupt. He asked, “Three moves? No need. One will do!”
Gavin couldn’t help but laugh out loud. “At least you know your place!”
“Mr. Blunt, just now Mr. Robin said that if he loses this match, War Wolf will be eliminated!”
Xavier turned to Robin and asked, “Mr. Robin, is that true?”
Robin nodded firmly and said, “Absolutely! Let’s begin!
Gavin immediately stepped back, preparing to strike.
The terrifying killing intent emanating from him filled the entire Free Combat Arena in an instant.
“General Brooks truly is the military god–his presence is terrifying!”

Looking across at Robin, who stood like a gentle, harmless figure, it was clear his calm presence couldn’t compare to Gavin’s overwhelming energy.
Suddenly, many began to feel sympathy for War Wolf and this young chief instructor.
After some posturing, Gavin struck first, charging toward Robin with lightning speed.

At the Free Fighting Arena of the Wolfsbane Summit Military Training, Bose, an almost soffocating alonce hung in the air.
Over a thousand elite special forces soldiers held their breath, cappily wweding the moment when Cenerd Gavin, the military god, unleashed his most spectacular thunderous strike spina Robin
With intense anticipation, their eyes remained fixed on Cavin’s retreating, figure.
Everyone wanted to witness firsthand the legendary military god in a fierce showdown with the mysterious chief instructor. The battle between titans was an unmiwable yetuce,
Although none of them had seen Robin in action, they all knew that anyone who could rise to the rank of Chief Instructor of War Wolf was no ordinary figure.
To be able to witness such a high–level match was exhilarating beyond words!
None of them wanted to take their eyes off the arena, knowing that even missing a fraction of a second would be a loss.
They all shared a common thought: through this battle, even learning just a fraction from these two formidable combat experts would be an honor for them.
Zayn had already jumped to his feet from the audience stand.
His eyes sparkled with wild excitement as he watched Gavin charge forward with the fury of a storm
Earlier, he had instructed Gavin to strike hard at Robin the moment an opportunity presented itself–at the very least, he needed to ensure Robin lost the ability to remain in the Special Operations Military Region.
Robin had humiliated him time and time again in front of his peers from Brighton’s prestigious families.
Zayn hated Robin to the core.
How could the proud heir of the Westeria Residence and the most influential young elite in Brighton be repeatedly insulted by Robin?
It was unacceptable!
Zayn, who was always proud and arrogant, could never tolerate such humiliation.
Watching Gavin rush toward Robin with overwhelming force, Zayn’s face lit up with satisfaction. Chief Instructor Brooks will not let me down! he thought, a smile creeping onto his face.
Michelle saw the burning intensity in Zayn’s gaze and understood the outcome he anticipated. She comforted him, “Chief Instructor Brooks will surely defeat that reckless Robin!”
Catherine, however, responded coldly, “Not so sure about that.
“Look at how excited you are, as if Chief Instructor Brooks has already won.

“Chief Instructor Brooks is up against Robin, who took down the world’s top Dark List fighter. He’s not some run–of–the–mill trash trying to wash away his past here!
“You’ve also seen it–Talia, once an average fighter, has transformed under Robin’s tutelage.
“Talia might have used different tactics today, but the result is clear: she defeated the three top experts of Dragon Soul!
“Those three are some of the best fighters in all Seven Military Zones.
“Talia’s victory proves that she has leveled up, whether through tactics or raw strength.
“To reach this level in less than a month–it’s a testament to how extraordinary a coach Robin truly is.
“Given time, with Robin’s mentorship, Talia could quickly grow into an unstoppable warrior!”
Michelle frowned slightly and said, “Catherine, why do you always seem to boost others‘ spirits while dampening ours? Chief Instructor Brooks is on our side.”
Catherine gave her a disdainful glance and said nothing more. “The result will be out soon. You’ll see for ‘yourself.”
On the viewing platform, high–ranking generals from the Special Operations Military Region watched Gavin’s imposing figure with approving gazes, acknowledging him as a military legend on par with Wilson,
Hunter nodded in agreement and said, “Chief Instructor Brooks is just as fierce as ever. He’s one of our army’s rare elite soldiers. The only problem is his rigid personality and tendency to rush things.”
Caleb concurred, adding, “Yes, otherwise his rank would have risen even higher by now.”
Martin whispered to Jack, “How many moves do you think this battle will take?”
Jack let out a light chuckle and said, “One move.”
“Is Chief Instructor Brooks that powerful?” Martin was surprised.
“If I tell you, it won’t be as exciting,” Jack said, his lips pursed. “Just watch and witness the miracle for yourself.”
Simon, however, furrowed his brows in concern.
Taking in Gavin’s terrifying momentum, he had to admit that the man’s skills were impressive.
Gavin charged toward Robin like an unstoppable tank, his power overwhelming and brutal.
How could anyone not be shaken by such raw power?
The sheer pressure would have flattened an ordinary opponent.
The force he was bringing down was absolutely crushing–one punch could annihilate his rival.
The speed was blinding, the strength so immense that made the entire arena tremble beneath his feet/4

Simon anxiously turned to Wilson and asked, “Do you think Instructor Ramsey can withstand General Brooks’s violent strike?”
Wilson smiled coldly. “He could do more than withstand that strike–by the time this is over, there will only be one person standing”
“Wait, you mean Robin… Robin will be knocked off the stage?” Simon froze.
Wilson paused for a moment before he said, “Keep watching, Mr. Cross. When you see the result with your own eyes, you’ll know what true excitement is.”
The Dragon Soul team, which had been downcast, had their spirit revived again when Gavin took the
stage.
Robin had declared that this duel would decide the fate of both War Wolf and Dragon Soul.
And it had been approved by the military command.
This was the first time in the history of the Special Operations Military Region that the rules for such a grand battle had been altered on the fly.
As Gavin surged toward Robin with all his might, every soldier from Dragon Soul stood up, their eyes glowing with hope.
They hoped that Gavin’s powerful strike would be the one to save Dragon Soul from the abyss, reviving them once again.
Over a thousand soldiers were holding their breath, hearts pounding in nervous excitement.
Under the blazing lights of the arena, Gavin, with his fierce momentum, charged toward Robin.
He had lived up to his reputation as the god–level combat expert.
With a powerhouse like Gavin on their side, Dragon Soul had long been the top force in the military region.
It would be tragedy if they were eliminated.
At the final moment, just as Gavin was about to strike, all the soldiers rose to their feet, their hearts in sync with those of their War Wolf comrades.
They awaited the glory of Gavin’s final blow.
A loud bang rang out on the arena, echoing through the space.
In an instant, the world seemed to freeze.
Everyone instinctively turned their eyes toward the arena.
But under the burning spotlight, the ring was empty.
In the center of the stage stood a tall, poised figure–like a pillar–standing unwavering in the middle of the ring.

At the center of the arena, the atmosphere was eerily surreal.
Over a thousand soldiers in the stands seemed to be transported into a myth.
A shared thought lingered in everyone’s minds: Was this some sort of illusion?
Gavin was formidable and unstoppable on the fighting ring just a second ago.
But in the blink of an eye, silence descended like an empty void.
The anticipation in the air was palpable!
But where had he gone?
Where was their military god?
Every eye was frantically searching for Gavin’s rugged form.
But no one could find him.
It was nothing short of a miracle.
What kind of legendary skill could pull off such a mind–boggling trick?
On the viewing platform, the audiences were just as perplexed.
They had all witnessed Gavin’s raw power and indomitable skill before.
But they had never seen a style so elusive and unpredictable.

Still, there was no sign of Gavin.

“What do you mean?” Caleb asked, confused.
Jack smiled mysteriously and said, “You’ll find out soon enough.”
Martin was still baffled and asked, “General Grayson, what do you mean?”
“What else could it mean?” Jack lightly laughed and said “Robin sent Gavin flying with a single punch.”

Wilson raised an eyebrow. “I’m not surprised. He should be around 60 feet ahead of Robin, somewhere i the grass?
“Binoculars!” Hunter took the binoculars from the guard and peered in the direction Wilson pointed.
“Ah, it seems like something’s moving, Gavin has lost devastatingly this time!”

Zayn was thoroughly confused in the audience stands.
Where had he gone?
Was he using a sneak attack, like Talia did?
He quickly grabbed his binoculars and muttered, “Where did Chief Instructor Brooks go? Could he be using Specter Tactics to confuse Robin?”
Catherine sneered, “Specter tactics? Making himself vanish into thin air?”
Michelle tiptoed, scanning the area. “There’s no one around.”
“He’s over there!” someone shouted, drawing, everyone’s attention.
A night breeze swept across the area.
About 100 feet southwest of the arena, in a patch of wind–swept tall grass, a head slowly emerged.
“Isn’t that General Gavin?”
“Wait, this is weird. How did he end up there?”
A duty officer from the military’s publicity department immediately directed the spotlight toward the patch of high grass.
Gavin sat in the grass, dazed, muttering to himself, “Where am I?”
Two lieutenants on duty quickly ran up to him. “General Brooks, this is the ambush grass area. Are you alright?”
Gavin shook his head, trying to clear his thoughts.
He looked up at the arena.
Under the blinding spotlight, Robin stood at the center of the ring, poised like a spear.
It suddenly clicked. He had been knocked here by Robin’s strike!
Gavin touched his chest, feeling a dull ache.
But, thankfully, there was no internal injury.

Gavin sighed inwardly, Robin had spared him.
Otherwise, that punch could have shattered his organs
I lost!
My strength is a world apart from him!
What extraordinary power does he possess to accomplish this?
Gavin felt nothing but shock, his mind blank.
With the help of the lieutenants, he walked toward the ring. “I lost this round!”
The arena fell into stunned silence.
It was unprecedented for such a formidable man to personally admit defeat.
Known as the military god, Gavin had failed to block even a single attack from Robin.
And was sent flying 100 feet away!
Two medics rushed over and asked worriedly. “General Brooks, how do you feel?”
Gavin took a deep breath and said, “My body’s fine.”
The medics quickly used their instruments to check him over.

After a brief check, they reported to the viewing platform, “Commander Baxter, all of General Brooks‘ vital signs are normal.”
Gavin took a deep breath, bowed toward Robin on the platform, and said, “Instructor Ramsey, I lost! But thank you for showing mercy. Otherwise, with that kind of force, I’d be dead by now!”
Robin nodded indifferently. “Hmm, it’s fair enough.”
“Hmph!” Gavin snorted, then turned to the Dragon Soul squad.
“Dragon Soul soldiers, I apologize! Today’s defeat is on me. From today on, you will all follow Command Headquarters‘ orders and go your separate ways!”
After a brief silence, a round of applause echoed through the arena.
The War Wolf elites, who had been slow to realize, suddenly understood–they had truly secured their position.
Under Robin’s guidance, the War Wolf had undergone month of rigorous training, finally pulling off the perfect comeback!
In the final round of the grand competition, the War Wolf elite not only displayed their team’s incredible cohesion but also perfectly embodied the spirit of comradeship and brotherhood, their lives intertwined by a bond that could never be broken.
In the face of disaster, they stood together, never leaving anyone behind.

When Hunter issued the command, the entire elite force of the Seven Special Forces immediately brightened with excitement.
What an honorable command it was.
Since the establishment of the Special Operations Military Region, there have been moments of glory in the international military martial tournaments.
Under the leadership of the former Warlord Supreme, they had won three international championships, becoming military legends of their cra.
However, after a disastrous event 20 years ago, the Warlord Supreme had disappeared without a trace.
Since then, the strength of the Special Operations Military Region has plummeted.
Since that catastrophic event, no soldiers from Draconia have placed in the top three of international martial tournaments for the past 20 years.
Despite numerous efforts, breakthroughs had been elusive.
For two decades, the soldiers had yearned for their elite forces to shine again on the stage of the international military martial tournament.
Yet hope had remained just that–hope.
Without enough strength, all their dreams were nothing but illusions.
Ten years ago, Wilson led the team to an admirable fourth place.
But since then, they had never risen again.
Globally, only seven teams made it to the finals.
Draconia’s team was consistently stuck between fifth and sixth place.
Gavin had led the team twice but had only managed to achieve fifth place.
The international military martial tournament had become an unresolved obsession for every soldier in the Special Operations Military Region.
When Hunter issued the order for Robin to form the competition team, a spark of hope ignited in the hearts of the entire military.
Robin had been part of the War Wolf Special Forces for just a month, yet his performance had been outstanding.
Under his leadership, the War Wolf Special Forces had made an unforgettable impression in this military competition.
They injected new life into the Special Operations Military Region, which had been stagnating for years.

Under the spotlight, the lone, proud figure of Robin became the embodiment of every soldier’s deepest yearning.
Every soul in the Special Operations Military Region cagerly awaited Robin to assume command, to lead the newly formed elite team, and once again showcase the brilliance of Draconian soldiers on the grand stage of the international military martial tournament.
Robin solemnly accepted the order, immediately beginning to select members for the team in front of the entire military.
“General Gavin, step forward!”
Gavin was momentarily stunned.
However, as a professional soldier, he knew he had to obey orders without hesitation.
He stepped forward and stood before Robin.
“I hereby appoint you as the Deputy Chief Instructor for the international military martial tournament.”
Gavin thought he had misheard. “Me? Deputy Chief Instructor?”
Robin replied indifferently, “Are you refusing this order?”
Gavin quickly responded, “I obey the order! I accept the appointment!
“This has been my long–time wish. I will fight alongside my comrades to strive for third place with all my might,”
Robin coldly remarked, “If that’s the case, you can leave now!
“In all my battles, there has only been first place. There is no second or third!
“As a soldier, you should always remember this. In the battlefield, where life and death are at stake, only first place means survival.
“Anything below first place is hell!”
“Yes, sir!” Gavin trembled all over in surprise.
He raised his eyes in shock. His gaze flickered with admiration.
What a powerful officer!
I like him!
Twenty years ago, he had heard similar words from another general, who believed that anything less than first was a disgrace.
Robin cast a cold glance at Gavin and continued, “Morris, Bill, Norman, Freya, Talia, Ernest, Mark! Step forward!

Still unsure, Bill asked, “Instructor Ramsey, do you really think I can participate too?”
“What? You don’t want to?” Robin raised an eyebrow.
Bill immediately responded, “I’m willing! However, Dragon Soul has already disbanded.”
“The disbandment of Dragon Soul is something that concerns the Command Headquarters, not mine,” Robin replied.

“If you’re unwilling, you may submit your resignation to Command Headquarters right now!”

“At 8 AM the day after tomorrow, all teams will head to Howellstead in the provincial capital to bid farewell to our comrade Santiago!
“The newly formed elite team for the international military martial tournament will join the War Wolf Special Forces to visit our fallen hero’s hometown.
“Dismissed! Rest tomorrow, and on the morning of the day after tomorrow, gather at 9 AM at the Wolfsbane Summit Military Training Base!”
The one–day military competition came to a successful conclusion.
The Seven Military Teams each headed back to their respective bases.
Jack walked up to Gavin’s side and teased, “Gavin, how do you feel today?”
Gavin gave a respectful salute. “General Grayson, I’m sorry I’ve disappointed you today, Robin is indeed powerful!”
Jack nodded. “Do you admit defeat?”
“In terms of physical skill, I concede, but in my heart, I still can’t accept it!”
“Then take your time to process it,” Jack patted Gavin’s shoulder. “Prepare well for this international military martial tournament.”
“Yes, General Grayson!” Gavin watched as Jack left in his car.

“But I’ve never achieved it. This is my chance, and I can’t let it slip away!”
Zayn asked darkly, “Don’t you want to climb higher in the rank?”
Gavin hesitated, then spoke with resolve, “Mr. Zayn, I’m sorry. I’m in my 40s. If I miss this opportunity, I may never again stand on the international military martial tournament stage. I can never give up on that!
“After I finish this competition, I will speak and help you…
“Hmph!” Zayn snorted and turned away before Gavin could finish his sentence.
Elliott rushed up to Robin and demanded, “Mr. Ramsey, I need to speak with you.”
Robin stopped. “What’s the matter?”
Elliott continued, “Ms. Leif and her mother are in a difficult situation. You’ve instructed us not to interfere with their lives, so my men have refrained from taking action.”
“What do you mean?” Robin raised an eyebrow.
