Chapter 343 - : Control (2/2)

Learning to seek during boring times and learning to be at peace during noisy moments. You need to rise above your emotions so that you could get used to your environment. This was something Ye Jian learned during her time in the desert.

The wind blew away the footsteps of the travelers. Ye Jian, who was lying in the sand just now, had disappeared too.

“Huh? Did the little girl escape?” After some time, Princ.i.p.al Chen appeared. He stood at the position where Ye Jian was supposed to be at and smiled. “Did she run away or did she…”

A hard object was felt on his back. Ye Jian smiled. “I didn’t run away. I just changed my position. Uncle Chen, you lost this time.”

This sniper training lasted for 46 hours. Ye Jian and Princ.i.p.al Chen were covered with yellow sand. If they used their hands to wipe their faces, they could wipe off a whole block of sand.

Their lips were very dry because they didn’t drink any water for the past 46 hours. They survived on cactus juice. Their lips were cracked and there were bloodstains. There was white scab around their lips too.

This was the stain from the cactus juice.

“Not bad. You took 46 hours. That’s five hours faster than the last time. You have improved.” Grandpa Gen pa.s.sed his military bottle to Ye Jian and took her sniper rifle. “I’ll do some maintenance for the gun. You two can take a rest.”

This 70-year-old man decided to accompany Ye Jian and Princ.i.p.al Chen for their tough training without any hesitation.

The Khotan River was just beside them. Ye Jian lowered her hands and scooped some water to clean the sand on her face. Her sunburned face was revealed. She told Princ.i.p.al Chen, “Uncle Chen, you can rest for the stamina test tomorrow. I can do it myself.”

No matter where she was, Ye Jian would always carry out the stamina test. Climbing, obstacle course, fully armed march, 2000m run within a certain time, etc. She must pa.s.s all these tests.
