It's no wonder Zhan Xinjia kept sighing. This kind of thing was no different from a waste of time for her. She just wanted to work hard, get promoted, and get a raise. She was already tired of showing off and getting slapped in the face.

Having been invincible for so many years, what kind of show-off hasn't she put on?

All I can say is that it's all stuff she's already done; how boring.

In no time at all, Zhan Xinjia had beaten the knife-wielding guy senseless and disoriented. Zhan Xinjia stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze deep and thoughtful, exuding a sense of world-weariness despite his young age.

“It’s too slow to bring them up one by one like this. Don’t delay today’s training schedule. Do whatever you want.”

The soldiers were in an uproar.

No way, has anyone ever seen anything like this?!

They'd trained in the military for so many years, and yet they weren't even as good as a little girl from the capital. It was so shameful; they felt so humiliated they'd slap themselves twice in the face when they woke up at night.

But there will never be a shortage of people in the world who don't believe in evil.

Just moments before, they were jokingly saying they would give in to her and be gentle with her, but now they don't care about saving face anymore.

Four or five tall, armored soldiers stepped out of the ranks, rubbing their hands together, each one imposing and strong. They were already agile and could easily take on five ordinary people at once.

"Captain, you can't make such boastful claims."

You might be a bit skilled, but surely we guys together can't possibly lose to you?

The one in the lead smirked, raising his eyebrows and making faces.

Zhan Xinjia remained expressionless.

"I hope your abilities are as numerous as your empty words."

The armored soldiers were clearly on good terms and cooperated well. They exchanged glances, gripped their swords, and swarmed in from all directions, attempting to trap Zhan Xinjia in the middle.

Theoretically speaking, those who are besieged have no chance of escape.

but……

"Holy crap, holy crap!! No, Dad, Mom, how can someone fly???"

"My goodness, is this even possible?! How did she fly? Aren't we just ordinary mortals? Why are we doing this? I'm starting to feel inferior."

"Me, fight her? Really? Oh my god, I'd better just retire from the army and go home to farm."

"Sigh, I also want to go back to farming..."

Although the girl was wearing heavy armor, she was as light as a startled bird, and she took off into the air with a light touch of her toes.

A howling north wind swirled around her, creating an aura that constantly swirled withered grass and snowflakes. Her figure was ethereal, so ethereal that she was merely a white shadow that was difficult to see with the naked eye. After a few muffled blows, the weapons in the hands of the men fell to the ground with a clatter, having lost their grip.

When the wind and snow stopped, a long sword stood upright in the center of the field, its blade embedded more than three inches into the frozen ground.

She lightly touched the hilt of the sword with her toes and landed steadily on it.

Against the backdrop of a clear blue sky over a snow-covered plain, a lone wild goose occasionally flies by, its long cry echoing through the heavens.

Her eyes were sharp and cold, and she held a blade of grass between her teeth. Her body, perched on the hilt of her sword, didn't even tremble, as if she were walking on flat ground.

Before, they were just dumbfounded, but now, whether it was the soldiers or the captains watching the show by the fence, they all began to doubt their lives and even wondered if they were having a nightmare.

Can a person really be this strong?

No, what's the difference between this and cultivating immortality?!

Having lost to Zhan Xinjia, they were no longer angry, and didn't even feel ashamed or embarrassed.

No, can she be considered a normal person?

Isn't it normal to be unable to defeat a god?

The more they had previously held a grudge against this "delicate" captain, the more fawning they became now. They swarmed around her with chuckles, their expressions changing drastically in an instant.

"Hehe, Commander Zhan, you'll definitely teach us all those moves, right?"

"I knew General Zhan's daughter was extraordinary! Ha, these foolish mortals didn't believe me! Commander Zhan, Commander Zhan! I've always been your follower!"

"Oh, let me squeeze in, damn it, I also want to discuss this with Commander Zhan."

"Who the hell is it? Don't you dare step on my foot!"

"Get out of the way! What kind of mess is this, standing here like this?!"

This was said by another captain who was watching.

After the soldiers returned to their ranks, looking aggrieved, the captain who had spoken immediately put his arm around Zhan Xinjia with a smile, completely losing the sarcastic tone he had shown before.

Her eyes shone brightly; she was so kind and approachable, her smile even sweeter than her own father's.

"We're all colleagues, Xiao Zhan, you can't keep anything to yourself!"

"That's right, Xiao Zhan, let's spar sometime~ Of course, you can't pretend to make a mistake and kill me, that would be impolite."

"General Qu has excellent judgment, and Commandant Zhan is truly a worthy daughter of her father. Our Canghan City is in dire need of talent like you!"

...

Meng Qiao was initially worried that A Zhi would be ostracized, but now she's worried that they might shamelessly try to steal A Zhi from her.

Qu Zhen, hiding in the shadows, was in a great mood and glanced sideways at Pei Yi, who was squinting beside him.

"What could I possibly worry about regarding Zhan Yue's daughter? The Zhan family are all monsters, born for the battlefield."

Pei Yi smiled and nodded.

"General Qu is right. Commandant Zhan is no less impressive than General Zhan was back then."

...

Zhan Xinjia had said before that if they won, she would take her head off and let them kick it around for fun.

If they lose, they will have to accept the punishment themselves.

Disrespecting superiors and defying them is no laughing matter.

If there is no punishment at all, they will just treat her as an easy target in the future, paying lip service while secretly disobeying them.

Not only will the team become disorganized and demoralized, but when the actual mission begins, some people might genuinely believe she has a good temper and disobey her orders, instead going their own way.

Of course, she didn't mean anything by it.

This is like when she was training with her father, she was beaten half to death every day for failing the training.

But her father doesn't love her? How could that be!

However, clear rewards and punishments are necessary.

The moment punishment was mentioned, all the soldiers immediately wilted again. Only the one who had stood up first, named Dashan, was still somewhat unconvinced. He stood forward with his chest puffed out, his attitude arrogant and unruly.

"So be it. It's just a few dozen lashes. I'm a grown man, I can take it!"

This statement subtly implies that no matter how powerful Yin Yang Zhan Xin Jia is, she is still just a woman.

Some people, just because they have a few fancy little things in their crotch, act as if they're born superior, arrogant and invincible, as if those things can help them achieve immortality and join the ranks of the immortals. It's ridiculous.

Zhan Xinjia raised an eyebrow.

"oh?"

Zhan Xinjia pulled a dagger from his waist and casually tossed it to the dark-faced soldier closest to him.

"You, go up and poke his ass."

"Oh...ah???"

The soldier, who had clumsily caught the dagger, looked up blankly, stunned, his small eyes filled with great confusion.
