After reading the list, Major Han, formerly known as Major Han and now Instructor Han, coughed lightly and looked at the eight instructors beside him. "Select teams according to their merits."

"Yes!" came the unanimous reply, and then the eight instructors picked out the people from groups 2 to 9 one by one.

The area near the podium suddenly emptied out. Instructor Han Ningshu looked at the members of Group 1 behind him and asked, "Group 1 will be training with me from now on. Any questions?"

“Yes, Instructor,” Anhe Lance was the first to respond.

Then voices rang out one after another, all saying "Yes".

Han Ningshu's gaze fell directly on Lian Han. "Lian Han, do you have a problem with that?"

The girl glanced at his face and said coolly, "No."

That tone—Han Ningshu felt his face start to hurt again, even though it wasn't fully healed to begin with.

A vengeful little girl.

While thinking, Han Ningshu opened the smart brain and issued a command. Immediately, a robot waiting at the edge of the playground came over and instructed each person to put on a pair of wristbands.

"Gravity wristbands, many of you should be familiar with them. I have good news for you: these wristbands belong to you from now on, and you must wear them at all times for the next month. I will be checking them randomly, and if you're not wearing them—" Han Ningshu's voice paused, and his refined face suddenly turned cold, "you don't want to know the consequences."

"yes."

Immediately, someone put on a wristband. After it came into contact with the skin, a thin red line appeared in the middle of the black wristband. Then, the person's wrist suddenly drooped down, and they had to use their other hand, which was not wearing a wristband, to support it and barely lift it up.

"So heavy!" The gravity wristbands felt light to hold, but their true weight was only apparent once they were on. Even though he was prepared, the weight still exceeded his expectations.

"You have 10 minutes to adjust."

After Han Ningshu said that, everyone had no choice but to put on wristbands immediately.

Lighter than expected. This thought flashed through Lian Han's mind, but then she remembered that she now had an S-level physique, so the wristbands specially prepared for A-level people would naturally feel light.

"Ah!" A cry of pain came from beside me. Was it Yozakura?

Lian Han turned his head and saw that the girl's hand was bent abnormally, clearly indicating that it was broken.

Lian Han quickly removed the gravity wristbands that the girl had just put on.

Han Ningshu took 30 seconds to figure out why A-rank student Ye Ying couldn't handle the weight, and quickly said, "Lian Han, put on Ye Ying and come with me to the infirmary. Anhe Lance, please stay here and look after everyone."

"yes."

Lian Han looked at the girl's pale face and said gently, "Ye Ying, let's go."

"I'm sorry. I've caused everyone trouble again."

Even after all this, you still have the mood to apologize? Lian Han was speechless and simply picked her up in his arms. "Instructor Han, let's go."

Watching them leave, someone murmured, "Lian Han, she was wearing two gravity wristbands, wasn't she?"

"really."

Everyone: This alluring little beauty is actually quite fierce...

After sending the person into the medical pod, Han Ningshu looked at Lian Han and said quietly, "Aren't the wristbands a bit too light?"

"Major Han," Lian Han said in an icy voice, "your face has recovered quite well."

Han Ningshu: "...I was just wearing a realistic mask. That card was too harsh; it won't heal for at least a month."

Lian Han looked at the young man's face, and after confirming that there was a very delicate thin film on his face, he looked away. "I knew it. Why would Liz hold back?"

"I'm more curious, is Miss Han really at the A-level?" Han Ningshu rationally changed the subject.

"Major Han doesn't believe the data measured by Di Luo?"

Han Ningshu's gaze lingered on the girl's fair wrist. "Of course I believe you. But we can't rule out the possibility of a temporary breakthrough. We happen to have some testing tools here, Miss Han, why don't you retest her?"

"What if it really is A?" Lian Han raised an eyebrow.

"As an instructor, it is my duty to care about the trainees' skill level."

So even if he misunderstands, he doesn't have to bear any consequences.

Lian Han nodded and walked towards the testing machine in the medical room. Before going up, he glanced at Han Ningshu again and said, "I hold grudges. Major Han should know that."

Han Ningshu, who was originally targeting her: ...What should I do if I suddenly regret it?

Under the influence of Old Man Xing's Spirit-Gathering Card, the test results were still two A's. However, her physique was shown as A+, exceeding the normal A-level standard, indicating that her physique was about to break through. This made sense, given why the gravity wristbands restricted her less.

But—this girl is only 15 years old! At this rate, she'll break the Federation's record for the youngest S-rank powerhouse!

Han Ningshu was already thinking and preparing to change the subject again, "Is Yozakura your roommate?"

"Yes," Lian Han replied as he stepped off the testing device.

Her surname is Ye.

"So what?"

Han Ningshu said softly, "Does Miss Han know Li Ye?"

"The Night People?" Lian Han blinked. She had heard the old man mention them once. They were a race that was very favored by the heavens, the kind that the entire Federation wanted to protect.

Note the word "protect". Old Xing mentioned that the bodies of those who leave the night are quite fragile. Even those at the A level may not be as strong as ordinary people at the E level.

But since the Federation has taken them under its wing, they must have some unique advantages—every Nightwalker is a born killer, their mental power can kill without a trace, and no one can detect them before they strike.

"The school's negligence allowed the Li Ye people to infiltrate the Armor-Making Academy. The boys of the Li Ye people take Li as their surname, while the girls take Ye as their surname. No one even thought of this."

"Should we report this to the school? Or the military?" Lian Han asked.

"Of course, it's the military."

Lian Han clenched his fist, then slowly relaxed it. "What will happen to her?"

"Are you sympathizing with her?" Han Ningshu glanced at the girl.

“From birth, their fate is predetermined. Don’t the people of Li Ye deserve sympathy?” Lian Han said softly.

Old Xing once said that the Nightwalkers are also the Federation's ultimate force against the Zerg, which is also their tragedy. Although protected by the Federation, they are destined to dedicate their lives to the Federation.

Han Ningshu reminded her, "Being soft-hearted is not something a young lady of the Ling family should have."

"So I just feel sorry for them."

Whether it was Lian Han, who was all alone before, or her now, backed by the Ling family, neither could do as they pleased. Or perhaps, the weak don't have the right to be willful; ultimately, she wasn't strong enough.

“Even sympathy shouldn’t be shown.” Han Ningshu paused. “Perhaps the young lady is not suited for the military.”

"That's why I never considered joining the military. Don't test me."

"It was just a casual remark. Lian Han, go back. I'll take care of things here. Also, please tell everyone that there will be a performance before the end of military training. There are 833 freshmen in the Armored Academy this year, and your group 1 is one of the 33 strongest. I don't think anyone wants to lose to the other groups, right? You must do your best."

With 33 people, he meant that Yozakura had already been eliminated.

"yes."

That's a difference of 33 to 100, right? Lian Han thought to himself as he responded.
