chapter 19: chapter 19: mei ling"switch partners every two minutes," qin feng instructed. "this will help you learn to fight alongside different abilities." su jiyai found herself paired with a girl who could manipulate fire. the girl's name was mei ling, and her fiery attacks were both impressive and intimidating. "cover me," mei ling said, her eyes locked on a group of zombies. she raised her hands, and flames erupted, incinerating the closest zombie. su jiyai stood ready, her dagger poised to strike any that got too close. they worked well together, their movements synchronized. mei ling's fire attacks kept the zombies at bay, while su jiyai's quick strikes finished them off. "five minutes left!" qin feng's voice cut through the noise. the zombies kept coming, but the group's confidence was growing. even the boy who had shouted earlier was now fighting with determination, his fear replaced by a newfound resolve. suddenly, a level-2 zombie, a brute, burst through the line, heading straight for mei ling. su jiyai's heart raced. the brute's speed was terrifying, but she remembered qin feng's words: the neck is the weakness. "to the left!" su jiyai shouted. mei ling dodged, her flames missing the brute by inches. su jiyai lunged forward, her dagger aimed at the brute's neck. with a swift, decisive motion, she slashed through its neck, and the brute collapsed, its head rolling away. "nice one!" mei ling said. the last few minutes were intense, but the group held their ground. when qin feng finally called for a halt, the field was littered with the remains of zombies. the trainees, though exhausted, stood tall, their faces reflecting pride. "you all did well for your first encounter. remember, this was controlled. out there, it will be much harder. stay alert, stay together, and never let your guard down. now let's start with the new batch." qin feng said and couldn't help but look at one particular girl who looked as if she was about to collapse, yet she bravely killed as many zombies as superhumans did. searᴄh the nôvelƒire.net website on google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. qin feng felt a bit suspicious. is su jiyai sure that she doesn't have any superpower? her body constitution was definitely not normal at all... "what?" all the superpower users and su jiyai were stunned. however, before they could complain, new zombies started to flock. this time not only there was level 1 zombies but also level 2 zombies... ........ by the end of the day, all the trainees were so exhausted that they couldn't even lift their legs, su jiyai felt that if she was given a bed, she would immediately lay on it and start sleeping. "alright, you all can leave now." qin feng left after saying his piece. "my god! i thought he would never ask us to stop..." one of the superpower users sighed. mei ling who was lying beside su jiyai said, "you have good combat skills." "thank you." su jiyai replied. "let's be friends." mei ling said as she extended her left hand. "just because i am able to fight now, doesn't mean i will continue to fight well in the future. you should find someone else." su jiyai exposed her without mercy. "tsk tsk...too clever. however..." mei ling turned to face su jiyai and said, "i like it." su jiyai rolled her eyes. one by one everyone left, however, su jiyai stayed on the ground. mei ling was about to ask why she wasn't leaving but su jiyai didn't give her the chance and said, "i want to practice more." mei ling was stunned and turned to leave. su jiyai could hear her say, "crazy." after everyone left, su jiyai started to practice. even though her body was tired, su jiyai knew that the difference between and the superpower user was too much, if she wanted to live, she had to fill the gap by practicing more hours. of course, su jiyai underestimated her body's limits because, after an hour, she suddenly felt nauseous and almost fainted. however before she could fall, familiar arms wrapped around her, and a unique but refreshing smell hit her nose. qin feng... su jiyai lifted her head and their eyes met. the time seemed to have paused and su jiyai couldn't think of anything other than the mesmerizing eyes of a certain gorgeous captain... qin feng was utterly mesmerized. his heart skipped a beat when he saw those clear and pure ocean-blue eyes... how mesmerizing! he thought. after a while, qin feng came out of his daze and helped su jiyai to stand up, "you should have rested, why are you still practicing?" "nothing." su jiyai said with a small smile. her heart was beating as if it was some drum! qin feng shook his head, "it's better if i drop you at the dormitory by myself." his tone sounded as if he wanted to ensure that su jiyai didn't over-practice. su jiyai felt sweet in her heart and nodded. "ma'am just like i had said, something is going between them." a figure said to a tall figure. the tall figure was silent before saying, "deal with that girl after 5 months. make sure to throw her in an isolated place filled with zombies, it is best if she becomes a zombie, if feng kills her with his own hands, he will learn his lesson." "okay, ma'am." "don't take action right away. wait for the right time." su jiyai and qin feng soon reached the dormitory. today they weren't silent along the way, they talked about various things. for once qin feng was stunned. su jiyai's way of thinking was too unique... according to her, death doesn't separate two people from each other. death is just a phase, just like how mortality is a phase. afterlife is another phase. and maybe there was something more than the afterlife... then her life philosophy. if you are doomed to die, you will die anyway but if you can't even try then you are wrong, what if a miracle happens? it is just like praying to god to win a lottery but not even buying a lottery ticket, so how could god help? so try whenever you can. on reaching the dormitory, qin feng bade a farewell and siu jiyai made her way to the bunker bed. unsurprisingly she felt the cold gaze of xi ziang and jing shan on her. of course, they were angry because li yuan was crying and wang bao was whispering something to them. su jiyai ignored them. however from then onwards she noticed a significant change in the members of the dorm except for han weilin. no one from the dorm was ready to lend her anything and they would sometimes even pass sarcastic remarks. at first han weilin fought with them, but su jiyai stopped her and told her, "not everyone is inclined to like and help us. since they don't want to help it is their choice." han weilin could only reluctantly give up under su jiyai's repeated persuasion. the day of the training ended and su jiyai joined the army officially. many things changed. the initially fearful su jiyai was now filled with a fighting spirit for her country. the army life was hard. there weren't resources. not much to eat, tiredness from the battles, fear of not being able to see the next day. however, su jiyai gradually adjusted. coincidentally she and han weilin were in the same group. days passed one by one. clashes in the dormitory increased and with each passing day, new trouble would arise. just after 2 months in the army, su jiyai's adoptive parents arrived at the army camp and made a scene, they refused to leave and asked for monetary compensation since they had raised su jiyai. wang bao openly criticized su jiyai for being unfilial and even started to spread rumors about her. su jiyai however refused to give in and didn't give a single federal coin to her adoptive parents. after all, to not sully their names, the adoptive parents had hired someone else to pretend to be her adoptive parents, how could she let them succeed? su jiyai even tried to explain but except for han weilin, a few of her new friends, mei ling, and qin feng, no one was ready to listen to her. was su jiyai affected? a little, but that was all. she was grateful that she wasn't alone. other than getting pointed and called out names, there were not many changes in su jiyai's life. what made su jiyai happy was, she survived 2 months! even though she was heavily injured sometimes and it was very difficult to endure the pain and the cold while still continuing to fight, she was happy. how couldn't she? 5 months before she was sure that she wouldn't even last 2 days. but now? she could easily fight level 2 zombies! however, she was not powerful enough to fight level 3 zombies. su jiyai believed that someday she would be able to fight level 3 zombies! there was also su yun and ou lin. the shameless couple even came to invite su jiyai to their grand wedding.
