“Really? Was someone able to shoot that well?” Min Jian looked at the instructor in astonishment. “How did the student perform in other areas?”
“I don’t know how the student performed in other areas. I only saw the student’s shooting at target practice earlier,” replied the instructor.
Min Jian contemplated for a few seconds and said, “In that case, why don’t you keep an eye on the student. If the student is really talented, then maybe we can…”
The instructor instantly knew what his boss meant. He cleared his throat before he continued. “Too bad she isn’t a boy.”
“Hmm?” Min Jian was stunned. “Is the student a girl?”
“That’s right.” The instructor nodded and sounded a little disappointed.
Then again, he did not mind if she was a girl.
Min Yu pondered as he glanced in the direction of the field before veering his eyes and telling Min Jian, “I have to go.”
Min Jian glanced at Min Yu. Since he knew Min Yu’s personality well, he did not keep asking about his girl. He waved his hand and gestured for Min Yu to get lost.
Min Yu nodded and quickly left with Zhuo Yun.
Min Jian looked at his nephew from behind and pondered before he turned towards the instructor. “Come on. Let’s go check out the military training.”
The instructor was promptly surprised by Min Jian’s suggestion.
What was going on at Tsing University this year? First, someone from the Min family came to be the chief military instructor. Now, the highest authority of the army was also present to see the military training…
The instructor shook his head in bewilderment before he proceeded to lead Min Jian to the field.

After Huo Yao came back from the bathroom, Yuan Xi asked her if she was going to keep practicing.
Huo Yao glanced at a boy in front of them who was busy practicing. She shook her head and said, “No, thanks.”
Since there were credits for the shooting, the students’ performance would go into their permanent records. If anyone failed, they would have to join the military training with the freshmen next year to retake it.
The instructor had already told them about this at the start of the training camp.
“Fine.” Yuan Xi knew that Huo Yao did not want to hold up the other students who genuinely needed the practice.
She thought for a moment and said, “Why don’t you teach me how to do it? Weren’t you talking about lining up the dots earlier? I don’t know how to do it.”
Huo Yao took two steps back. “You can ask the instructor. I don’t know either.”
Yuan Xi’s lips twitched. She promptly felt defeated. “… Am I really that bad at shooting?”
Huo Yao said nothing.
Didn’t Yuan Xi know what her actual potential was?
Yuan Xi went back to the shooting range dejectedly and took an unused gun and placed it on her shoulder before lying p.r.o.ne on the ground.
Although it was not a real type 81 a.s.sault rifle, it was equally heavy. After holding it up for some time, she could really feel the strain on her arms and shoulders.
Huo Yao could not bear the sight when she saw Yuan Xi practicing blindly. Even though she claimed not to know anything about shooting, she walked over and gave her some tips.
Min Jian saw Huo Yao teaching Yuan Xi how to shoot when he came over. However, Mi Jian and the instructor did not come very close to them.
The instructor looked at Huo Yao and said, “That’s the girl.”
Min Jian looked at Huo Yao. She was wearing her military cap low and was leaning forward with her head lowered, so Min Jian was unable to see her face.
However, she had a very special aura.
Huo Yao seemed to detect Min Jian looking at her. Just as she was teaching Yuan Xi how to shoot, she raised her head and glanced straight in Min Jian’s direction.
Her eyes were calm. After briefly looking at him, she veered her eyes and continued teaching Yuan Xi.
Min Jian raised his brow in slight surprise. His aura was intensely imposing.
None of the other students had the guts to look him into the eye as coolly as the girl.
