Chapter 323 This time, Lei Kuan really kicked a hornet's nest. He deliberately obscured the other party's name and background, only emphasizing the words "Instructor Qin".
"Instructor Qin?"
A very low murmur arose from the crowd.
"For the next month, he will be in full charge of your combat training!" Lei Kuan's arm remained raised, his fingertips almost poking Qin Ye's nose. "His words are orders! Absolute orders! No matter what he tells you to do, even if he tells you to eat shit, you must obey unconditionally! Do you understand?!"
"I understand!"
The replies were sparse, varied in length, and weak.
The female soldiers were a bit better off; at least their voices were relatively synchronized.
The male soldiers, on the other hand, were completely perfunctory. Many of them shouted slogans, but their lips curled into disdain, their eyes filled with contempt and provocation, as if to say, "Let's see what tricks you can pull."
Especially Zhang Kui, who was standing at the front of the line, relied on his tall and strong physique, craning his neck and practically looking down his nose at the so-called "Instructor Qin," muttering in a voice only those around him could hear:
"Tch, absolute command, who are you trying to scare?"
The thugs around him immediately let out a suppressed chuckle.
Lei Kuan's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot in an instant.
This is outrageous! This is absolutely outrageous!
These brats are really something else! They dare to disrespect even the people Lei Kuan brought with him personally! This isn't just a matter of discipline; they're challenging his authority!
His chest heaved violently, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Just as he was about to open his mouth and lash out to give these ignorant greenhorns a good lesson, Qin Ye suddenly moved beside him.
He slightly raised his hand to stop Lei Kuan.
Lei Kuan was stunned, and swallowed back the curse that was about to come out of his mouth.
He glanced at Qin Ye with some confusion. The other man's face remained expressionless, and his dark eyes revealed no emotion whatsoever.
He knew this man's temperament. When he was sent here, Vice Minister Zheng spoke with him personally. This man was someone who had truly fought his way out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
These brats really need to be disciplined.
Lei Kuan hesitated for a moment, but ultimately chose to trust the professionals. He silently took half a step back, giving up the space completely.
Qin Ye took a step forward and stood alone in front of all the soldiers.
He didn't speak.
He stood there quietly. At over 1.8 meters tall, he appeared exceptionally tall and slender among soldiers of the 1960s and 70s, who were generally not very tall.
He didn't shout like Lei Kuan, nor did he adopt any authoritative posture.
He simply swept his cold, emotionless eyes slowly across the entire room.
Anyone he saw, regardless of gender or their previous mindset, felt, in that instant, as if they had been stripped naked and thrown into the freezing cold, completely exposed from the inside out, with nowhere to hide.
Those who had been whispering amongst themselves unconsciously fell silent.
Those whose faces still held disdain and mockery slowly froze at the corners of their mouths.
The entire parade ground fell into a suffocating silence once again. Only the rustling of the wind through the leaves and the increasingly heavy breathing of the soldiers could be heard.
Finally, just when everyone was about to be crushed by the heavy silence, Qin Ye spoke.
"From today onwards, I will be in charge of your combat training."
He paused after saying that.
This time, his gaze lingered on the male soldiers who had been whispering and looking defiant, for an unusually long time.
Finally, his gaze landed precisely on Zhang Kui, who was stiff-necked and had a defiant look on his face.
Zhang Kui's heart skipped a beat.
He was locked onto by that gaze, and felt like a frog being stared at by a venomous snake; his muscles instantly stiffened.
He tried to look away, but found himself unable to move. That gaze seemed to have a tangible weight, pressing down on him relentlessly.
"You," Qin Ye's voice rang out again, still in that cold tone, but with an unquestionable commanding air.
Everyone in the audience held their breath.
"Step forward."
Zhang Kui's mind went blank with a "buzz".
he?
Call him?
With so many people present, why call on him specifically?
His comrades around him all seemed to have seen a ghost, and suddenly shrank to the side, instantly creating a small vacuum around him, making him stand out all alone.
All eyes immediately focused on Zhang Kui's face, which had turned a deep purplish-red.
