Mariana Buck’s gaze flickered slightly as she stared intently at Flossie Wright, observing her with increased scrutiny and probing. However, Flossie deliberately avoided Mariana’s gaze, turning to look ahead as she listened to Maggie Summerton calling out the groups one by one.
Becca Reyes and Jocelyn Carrington were in one group.
Belinda Nichols and Cherry Hamilton were in another group.
Jessie Grain was paired with a veteran soldier, who seemed to be very formidable.
These pairings were all between individuals whose strengths were not much different from each other, which was normal, but Flossie could not understand why she had been placed in the same group as Mariana Buck.
Little did she know that in Rowdy Brightwill’s eyes, she possessed an incredible amount of potential.
Being matched with someone stronger was the only way to grow more swiftly.
When Flossie saw Belinda Nichols, the concern in her eyes was faint but still palpable to Flossie.
Now that the basic techniques had been taught, real combat was the method of assessing true strength. Thus, as soon as the groups were assigned, at Rowdy Brightwill’s command, everyone began to stake out their opposition and engage in two-person sparring matches.
"Let’s start."
Flossie pulled down the brim of her cap slightly and said with furrowed brows to Mariana Buck.
"I’ll take it easy on you."
With a light chuckle and a teasing look in her eyes, Mariana Buck mercilessly began to attack!

The force of the punches whistled by her ears with a fierce wind, each move ruthless, targeting her vital points without any reservation.
From the beginning, Flossie was at a disadvantage.
Facing Mariana Buck, she wasn’t fast enough, her strikes were not powerful enough. Flossie could anticipate Mariana’s moves and counter them, but she couldn’t react in time. Her physical ability was not keeping up with her thoughts, an ongoing issue she had to face.
More importantly—
Although Mariana Buck showed no mercy, she wasn’t pushing Flossie to use moves outside of what she had been taught in combat training.
Unless it was a matter of life and death, inside the Forces, she had to be cautious in every way.
Even if it meant taking a few punches or falls!
In the distance—
Looking out over a stretch of beach, Rowdy Brightwill frowned, his handsome features clouded with an unspeakable heaviness and concern.
Curious, Maggie Summerton, who was also serving as an instructor, made her way to Rowdy’s side after walking around and followed his gaze.
But what she saw when she looked, left her completely stunned.
Not far off on the shore, two figures stood in the water deep enough to reach their knees.
One female soldier was soaked through, her cap floating on the surface, her wet hair flying about with her movements; the other soldier’s fists and feet harshly swept through, her moves forcibly pushing her opponent towards the deeper water where the surprised soldier was submerged.
However, without any pause, the attacker would pull up the fallen one, who got back up with an indifferent expression and resumed fighting!
Maggie Summerton gaped in shock.
The attacking soldier showed no mercy; despite being knocked down repeatedly, the defending soldier quickly adjusted and showed no signs of anger or dissatisfaction, as if oblivious to pain.
"That one, the one getting knocked down... isn’t that Flossie Wright, the one who took down several veteran soldiers a few days ago... Uh, is that her name?"
With surprise in her eyes, Maggie stated in disbelief.
Next to her, Rowdy Brightwill nodded grimly.
"She..." Getting confirmation, Maggie was taken aback once more.
Flossie Wright had quickly become legendary in the past few days, having challenged more than twenty soldiers on her own and even infuriating Sergeant Chen to the point of madness. Flossie’s image as a ’strong warrior’ had slowly become deeply etched in the minds of others.
But right now—
