With the crisp applause, the ten-minute examination was over. When Zhu Yu walked toward the briefcases full of cash, Zhu Yu felt like this was all so surreal.

The Celestial Trade employees responsible for distributing the cash gave back the agents' luggage so they could store their stacks of cash. Zhu Yu looked at her stuffed backpack then back at the door to the cabin. She felt an inexplicable feeling.

The moment she boarded the plane to the island, she dreamed of living a lavish but exciting life like 007, but when she was forced to step onto the vessel to the training base, the reality destroyed her hopes for a ”perfect life.”

But now with a bag full of cash and an opportunity to board the vessel back to civilized society, she felt empty.

”What're you thinking about?” The blonde girl named Penny stopped beside her and put her hand on her friend's shoulder.

”I don't know.” Zhu Yu shook her head as her serene face was filled with confusion. ”Although at the beginning, I felt pain and despair in my hellish days as I waited for the day I could leave… now that the day is finally here, I just feel empty inside.”

”Congratulations, you graduated,” Penny said optimistically.

Zhu Yu looked at her friend, puzzled.

Penny shrugged and replied, ”When I was in university, our state mandated military training. At the end of the training, that's what our trainer told us.”

”Is that so?” A relieved smile appeared on Zhu Yu's face.

Penny laughed and smacked her friend's shoulder playfully. ”Don't think too much. It's not good for a girl to be too shy. You can be melancholic when you're old, but now you should think about how you're going to spend the money.”

Penny patted her backpack with a grin.

”You're right. I'll send some money to my family first or I'll just move my family here. Since I didn't say anything when I left, they must be worried,” Zhu Yu said.

”You eastern people are so problematic - my mom kicked me out when I was 18.” Penny looked speechlessly at her friend.

Aside from these two, the agents all chatted with the friends they made during training. They discussed how they would spend the money and where they would go for their ten-day vacation. The layout of the vessel was different than when they first came - the spacious cabin was filled with delicious food and champagne in a party atmosphere.

Just like a graduation ceremony.

Once all the agents boarded, Jiang Chen smiled at the female trainers standing dumbfounded.

”What are you guys waiting for? There's a share belonging to you too.”

As they snapped back to reality, the six trainers walked over in excitement while suppressing their ecstatic moods to accept the 100 thousand that belonged to them.

After everyone boarded, Jiang Chen signaled the vessel to take everyone to New Moon Island. Once they were on New Moon Island, the Xin National Security Department would complete the paperwork for them, assign equipment, and arrange positions.

The busy 80-day training period had ended and the small island finally returned to peace.

Jiang Chen gazed at the girl he hadn't seen for a long time and she was gazing at him too. Her dark brown hair reflected an intoxicating brightness under the dusk sunlight. Her camouflage shirt outlined her gorgeous figure.

Her blue pupils were the most irresistible; they seemed to be speaking - showing him her passion and gentleness.

Without any words, Jiang Chen walked up to hug her. She gave a light shout when he pushed her onto the training ground sandpit.

Ayesha felt the cold mixture of sand and seawater as well as the pressure on her chest. Ayesha timidly glanced at the podium she used to stand on when she conducted training and whispered:
