Flossie Wright glanced out of the corner of her eye and could still see Becca Reyes’s lingering gaze.
Embarrassment ensued.
"Flossie Wright!"
Suddenly, she heard Ella Pemberton shout.
Instinctively, Flossie Wright took a step forward.
"You’ve been absent for the past three days, so I’ll repeat the morning training for you," Ella Pemberton paced over to her and looked at her seriously. "Ten kilometers of cross-country. You’ve done mud prone training during the new recruit selection exercises, with a length of one kilometer, back and forth three times."

After a slight pause, Ella Pemberton raised her voice, "Did you get that?!"
"Understood!"
Standing tall, Flossie Wright responded decisively.
The mere thought of the mud prone training gave her a headache.
During the new recruit selection exercises, they indeed had similar training, holding their breath for a minute in a stinking mud pit and then crawling through it.
But that was just a one-off occasion.
If she hadn’t misheard, such training was going to be a daily occurrence from now on.
"All right, start running."
Ella Pemberton cut straight to the chase.
"Yes, ma’am!"
The three collectively responded and turned to start the cross-country run.
Ella Pemberton was in no hurry to follow. She waited until the three were out of sight before going down to the dormitory to fetch a small electric scooter.
Leisurely, she followed behind.
She was originally assigned a bicycle, but due to her special circumstances, the Forces had specifically provided her with a small electric scooter.
Aside from pushing it uphill, it didn’t require much physical effort in other situations.
After following for five kilometers, Ella Pemberton gradually noticed the physical fitness discrepancy.
Based on observations from the past three days, Jessie Grain and Nancy Phillips’s stamina was quite similar; if one had to be rated higher, it would be Nancy Phillips by a slight margin.
And Flossie Wright now...
Having traveled only half the distance, she had already fallen far behind.
Ella Pemberton saw this and was quite worried.
She had some prior understanding of Flossie Wright’s physical fitness, but the fact that Flossie had improved to this level in just half a year was already quite impressive.
Without considerable perseverance, she wouldn’t have been able to persist.
Yet compared to veteran soldiers Jessie Grain and Nancy Phillips, Flossie Wright’s stamina was...
If Flossie Wright hadn’t had a special background, excellent marksmanship, and a good character, Ella Pemberton wouldn’t have even considered her for sniper training.
Because, in terms of physical fitness, Flossie Wright was still far from sufficient for a sniper.
Even Nancy Phillips and Jessie Grain still needed continued training.
"How much farther?"
Having run nearly seven kilometers, Nancy Phillips suddenly asked Jessie Grain, who had always been by her side.
After thinking for a moment, Jessie Grain replied, "About seven kilometers, I suppose."
"Sprint?" Nancy Phillips raised an eyebrow, her expression full of excitement under the brim of her cap.
Chuckling, Jessie Grain nodded readily.
The two exchanged a look.
Their pace suddenly quickened.
Within two minutes, Flossie Wright, who had only been a few hundred meters behind, was almost out of sight.
Midway, Nancy Phillips took a moment to look back, and without seeing Flossie Wright’s figure, a faint smile formed on her lips.
Meanwhile—
Watching the two figures ahead vanish, Ella Pemberton brought the small electric scooter alongside Flossie Wright.
"Aren’t you going to speed up?"
Turning her head to look at Flossie Wright, Ella Pemberton asked with considerable curiosity.
