These guys were all elites under Mo Yuntian, the aces of the army. Their group acknowledging Nie Yan as their instructor was a confirmation of Nie Yan's strength.

Born into a military family, with his father being a soldier, Nie Yan had inherited some of his father's ideology. Subconsciously, he also firmly believed in the supremacy of strength, and his pursuit of his own power was extremely persistent. Previously, Nie Yan didn't know what level he was at, after all, he only sparred with students, and there was still a certain gap between them and real martial artists. But today's victory over Wang Duo gave him more confidence. His strength was no less than those elites in the army.

Nie Yan increasingly felt the changes brought about by advancing to Shadow Dancer (Ying Wu). What secrets did the title Shadow Dancer hold?

Unable to figure it out, Nie Yan stopped thinking about it. He decided to focus on doing what he could do right now. He needed to take charge of these thirty-plus people in front of him.

Wang Duo retreated back into the ranks. He was completely convinced of Nie Yan's strength. When he looked at Nie Yan, his eyes revealed a kind of fanaticism. He admired anyone stronger than him. Nie Yan was much younger than him, yet his strength was already so formidable. If he had a few more years, what would he become? He no longer had any objections to the instructor Mo Yuntian had found for them.

With Mo Yuntian's permission, Nie Yan walked to the front of them and said solemnly, "I know that some of you may not be convinced that General Yun Shang would find someone who is not even twenty years old, and still a student, to be your instructor. The army is a place that values strength. It's useless for me to say much. If any of you are not convinced, you can stand up, and we'll speak with strength. From now on, until you defeat me, I am your instructor. Since General Yun Shang has entrusted you to me, I naturally have to give him an explanation."

Although Nie Yan's words were a bit arrogant, in the army, if you want to convince people, it's not enough to just speak beautifully. He understood how to tame these unruly guys.

The thirty-plus soldiers straightened their faces and raised their heads. Nie Yan's previous defeat of Wang Duo had already convinced them, so they didn't raise any objections.

"Start counting off."

Nie Yan quickly got a number, a total of thirty-six people. To truly satisfy General Mo Yuntian, he felt the weight of the task on his shoulders.

"Introduce yourselves, your names, ages, and so on." Nie Yan glanced at everyone. Since Mo Yuntian had entrusted these people to him, he naturally needed to know their backgrounds.

Wang Duo and the others looked at Mo Yuntian. Seeing Mo Yuntian nod, Wang Duo stepped forward and said, "Reporting, Instructor, Wang Duo, twenty-six years old, belongs to the 721st Mecha Special Forces Brigade, with the rank of Major General..."

Wang Duo introduced himself. Hearing the words "Major General," Nie Yan's heart shook. A twenty-six-year-old Major General, and from the 721st Mecha Special Forces Brigade, said to be a very special unit, with illustrious military exploits. Any ordinary soldier pulled out from there would have the rank of Major outside.

Lei Su and Xiao Yu were a little dumbfounded. It was actually the 721st Mecha Special Forces Brigade, and a Major General at that!

"Reporting, Instructor, Lin Yi, twenty-five years old, belongs to the 275th Airship Special Forces Brigade, with the rank of Major General..."

"Reporting, Instructor, Luo Ye, twenty-six years old, belongs to the 721st Mecha Special Forces Brigade, with the rank of Major General..."

One after another, they stepped forward and introduced themselves. The highest rank among them was Major General, a total of three people. The others were all at the rank of Senior Colonel, and their ages were probably between twenty-five and twenty-seven.

He didn't know until he heard it, and he was shocked when he did. Listening to these people reporting their names, Nie Yan's heart trembled. These guys were all from special forces brigades. Reaching the rank of Senior Colonel or Major General at such a young age, it could be imagined that they would have limitless prospects in the future. Mo Yuntian actually entrusted such a group of people to him for training, and a sense of bewilderment surged in his heart.

"In another year, they will participate in an all-army competition. If they can get a ranking, they will join the 012 Mecha Unit. Originally, I just wanted you to help them achieve bio-current connection with their faith during this year. But I didn't expect your strength to exceed my expectations. It's enough to be their instructor. I'll leave them to you for this year," Mo Yuntian said.

"I'll do my best," Nie Yan said. He smiled wryly in his heart. He couldn't afford to offend any of these fierce guys!

Mo Yuntian smiled and said, "I believe in your strength. Are you interested in joining the army? With your strength, as long as you pass the political review, there's no problem joining the 012 Mecha Unit. Your father served in the army, and he's now helping the country, so it's easy to pass the political review. If you want to join the army, I think your father would be very happy."

Nie Yan quickly waved his hand and shook his head with a wry smile. "Don't make things difficult for me. I don't want to join the army." If Mo Yuntian told his father, his father might really agree to him joining the army. Nie Yan didn't want to be a soldier. He considered himself to have no great ambitions, and it was enough to seek peace for his family and stability in the present world.

Seeing that Nie Yan was very resistant, Mo Yuntian could only sigh regretfully and said, "Since that's the case, I won't force you. If you change your mind one day, come to me at any time. You only have one year to consider. After this year, it will be difficult to enter the 012 Mecha Unit again."

Don't even think about it, Nie Yan thought to himself. He would never join the army. Being a soldier meant he had to go to space, and maybe he wouldn't be able to come back for a few years. That wasn't the life he wanted.

Hearing Nie Yan's answer, Lei Su couldn't help but beat his chest and stomp his feet. Hadn't Nie Yan heard of the 012 Mecha Unit, didn't he know what kind of organization it was? He really wanted to go up and kick Nie Yan, reminding him. The 012 Mecha Unit was a special unit independent of the three services, directly commanded by the General Staff. It was said that it would be equipped with the latest mecha in the future, and its status was unimaginable. He dreamed of joining such a unit, but Nie Yan refused without even thinking about it.

Seeing that Nie Yan was unmoved, Mo Yuntian could only give up and said, "Then I'll leave them to you."

"Okay."

"I heard you have a guy named Ci Dao (Stab/Bayonet), how is his strength?" Mo Yuntian asked. Although Ci Dao's reputation was well-known, he had never really come into contact with him, so he didn't know how strong Ci Dao really was, whether it was just a false reputation.

"Only stronger than me, not weaker. If I fight him, it would be good if I could last twenty minutes," Nie Yan said. This was the truth. Even though his strength had recently soared, he was still far from Ci Dao. Ci Dao's strength was much stronger than those top international assassins and mercenaries who were on par with him. He sometimes even suspected that Ci Dao was a special forces soldier before becoming a mercenary.

Oh? Mo Yuntian showed a surprised expression.

Hearing Nie Yan say that he could only last twenty minutes against Ci Dao, Wang Duo and the others were a little unconvinced, after all, they had witnessed Nie Yan's true strength.

Nie Yan knew that Mo Yuntian and the others might not believe it, but based on his understanding of Ci Dao, Ci Dao really had that strength. He sometimes even suspected that Ci Dao was also a special forces soldier before he became a mercenary.

Mo Yuntian stared into Nie Yan's eyes. Nie Yan shouldn't be joking.

"So you can rest assured, General Yun Shang, that I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer." A thought flashed through Nie Yan's mind. Although he didn't want to be a soldier himself, it was definitely not wrong to have a good relationship with those in the army. Wang Duo, Lin Yi and the others had limitless futures. Having a good relationship with these people, regardless of whether Wang Duo, Lin Yi and the others could enter the 012 unit, would be of great help to him.

Mo Yuntian didn't know that Nie Yan was already considering how to build his own relationship network.

"After you enter the game, come to the Undying Scourge's office in Calore City to find me. As for the daytime, I will let Ci Dao train you," Nie Yan said to Wang Duo, Lin Yi and the others.

"Yes!" Wang Duo, Lin Yi and the others immediately stood at attention and replied.

Wang Duo, Lin Yi and the others had already begun to treat Nie Yan as their instructor, and Nie Yan naturally accepted it. In the army, this kind of superior-subordinate relationship is most easily remembered. When Nie Yan's father was in the army, he was once the leader of a squad. Later, after his father retired, many people in that squad had done well in the military system. Even after more than ten years, they still remembered his father, and every time they met him, they affectionately called him Old Squad Leader.

If he wanted Wang Duo, Lin Yi and the others to remember him, he had to make them truly respect him! He really didn't have any experience in how to train a soldier, so he could only push it to Ci Dao, while he would start from the game.

Nie Yan said to the empty space, "Ci Dao, come out."

Wang Duo, Lin Yi and the others were wondering who Nie Yan was talking to. There was no one there at all. Just then, a slightly thin figure appeared in the corner of the gym, where several small pieces of equipment were placed.

Wang Duo, Lin Yi, and even Mo Yuntian and Lei Su were shocked. They had been in the gym for so long, but they had never noticed that there was someone hiding in the gym. What kind of stealth ability was this! If Ci Dao wanted to kill them, none of the people here could survive! At such a close distance, if equipped with good weapons, one could be silently killed in a short period of time.

"What a strong guy!" Wang Duo, Lin Yi and the others thought to themselves.

Ci Dao's name was indeed well-deserved.

At this time, Mo Yuntian couldn't help but deeply envy Nie Yan for recruiting such an expert. If someone like Ci Dao was placed in the military system, what kind of storm would it stir up!

Wang Duo, Lin Yi and the others finally believed that Nie Yan's previous evaluation of Ci Dao was not false.

"Next, he will train your fighting skills," Nie Yan said to Wang Duo, Lin Yi and the others.
