Flossie Wright replied expressionlessly.
"Really no?" Dallion Collins refused to let it go.
"Really no," Flossie Wright emphasized.
"You must say it!"
With a raised eyebrow, Dallion Collins insisted firmly.
Flossie Wright was at a loss for words.
Observing the situation from the side, Joshua Bailey, with a belly full of laughter, forced himself not to laugh out loud.
Dallion Collins also had moments of being stubbornly petulant.
It seemed that Dallion Collins had recognized Flossie Wright.
Setting aside their relationship as Captain and subordinate, when they were evaluating whether a trainee qualified as a trustworthy comrade, the first step was recognition.
Ability was one aspect, but thoughts, concepts, and character were all within their scope of consideration.
"Keep it up."
After brewing for two seconds, Flossie Wright said these two words with an indifferent tone.
Dallion Collins and Joshua Bailey almost bit their tongues.
"Anything else?" Dallion Collins asked, unwilling to give up.
"That’s it."
Speaking indifferently, Flossie Wright didn’t want to continue the back-and-forth, didn’t even call out a report, and turned directly to rejoin the team.
By accident, she had dragged the battle between them right onto herself.
Not worth it.
She didn’t want to stir up trouble for the time being.
Even though—
She had caused trouble as soon as she arrived.
Watching her leave with a carefree demeanor, Dallion Collins’s brow furrowed slightly, but he said no more.
With another wave of his hand, he signaled for Cassie Ferguson and Mariana Buck to stand aside and then called the other groups to continue with the competition.
Ten large teams in total.
It took nearly two hours.
Those who passed but had not completed the remaining training missions, upon Dallion Collins’s approval, left the team to get busy.
And those who lost in the competition—
Unfortunately, not to mention the request to "go train other subjects" first, even thinking about moving to avoid their bodies from freezing and losing sensation was wishful thinking.
Before the competition ended, everyone better damn well stand up straight and at attention!
The unlucky Flossie Wright, sadly, ended up in the same sorry state as this bunch of losers.
In this more than an hour, they were literally freezing like dogs on the snowfield.
When the last group finished, Dallion Collins finally showed some kindness and instructed them, "Move around freely."
Suddenly—
All those who had been "punished to stand" were boiling over with excitement.
Move quickly!
Otherwise, they would indeed become ice sculptures.
"You two, come here!"
Dallion Collins glanced at the now bustling crowd, then beckoned Cassie Ferguson and Mariana Buck, who were standing on the other side.
The two walked over.
Having stood properly for probably over an hour, snowflakes had accumulated on their hat brims and shoulders, piling up to form a thin layer of snow.
"I’ll give you one more chance," Dallion Collins said gravely, his face stern, then paused briefly before adding, "Regardless of the outcome, three and a half minutes. Exceeding that, you’ll end up with the same fate as them."
After speaking, Dallion Collins lifted his hand clad in black gloves and pointed to the group that was moving to warm up.
Three and a half minutes.
If Mariana Buck remembered correctly, that was the time Jessie Grain had taken.
She took nearly four minutes.
If it exceeded three and a half minutes, even if she won against Cassie Ferguson, in the end it would be no different from losing.
