Inside the Brut Military Academy, all were werewolf clan members. The student leading them ostentatiously revealed the wolf ears on the top of his head, with gray hair and grey eyes. His gaze brazenly fell on Chloe as he smiled and said:
“Hello, my name is Kamen.”
Chloe couldn't help looking at the swaying wolf ears on top of his head. Her fangs rubbed against each other as she responded:
“Call me Chloe.”
Kamen nodded, then seemed to think of something and lamented:
“Is the No.1 Military Academy empty? On such a huge training ground, there are only four of you from the main team? You all are so diligent, no wonder you could stand out from all the military academy students.”
It was clearly meant as compliments but also concealed ridicule, implying both in his words and between the lines that the students of the No.1 Military Academy were lazy, and they were picking the best from the worst.
Ren Yunying's expression soured and she was about to say something when Chloe cut her off.
The girl's expression was high-spirited. She enthusiastically said:
“Oh my, don’t you know? The training ground of our No.1 Military Academy is actually just for show. Only when there are many people here for major classes would we come here together. At other times, everyone would go to specialized training chambers for practice. The facilities there are not only much better than the training ground, but things like water, food, nutrient fluids and more are readily available too, so the conditions are far better than here!"
Chloe patted Kamen on the shoulder and sighed, “Like those of us training on the grounds during breaks, we’re basically all lazy, bad students with nothing better to do who also have poor abilities.”
"Oh, that's right. You guys don't even know this. Does the Brut Military Academy not have specialized training chambers? Don't have enough? Oh, I understand. Well, since you came all the way here, how about I give you a tour of our training chambers?"
Chloe still had her hand resting on Kamen's shoulder. Her face was full of astonishment, completely ignoring the ugly looks on the Brut Military Academy students' faces. She continued softly murmuring:
“Oh my, to think the Brut Military Academy doesn't even have training chambers. How very pitiful...”
Ren Yunying coughed lightly twice into her clenched fist. Afraid that Chloe would continue to recklessly make enemies, she quickly pulled Chloe behind her and apologetically said:
“Alright, we've talked for so long now. Why not let your friends get acquainted with them?”
Chloe obediently nodded.
Her gaze fell on Kamen, whose face had turned green from anger. She shook her head with a sigh.
Kamen: “......”
He glared fiercely at Chloe.
He would definitely punch the arrogance out of her on the arena!
The other three came up one by one to shake Kamen's hand. When it was Daniel's turn, he had an expression of pleasant surprise. He stretched out his hand,
"Oh my! My dear cousin, it's been so long since we last met!"
As he spoke, he went to shake Kamen's hand.
Kamen's gaze fell on Daniel's hand covered in unidentified dust. His expression was slightly horrified. "Don't... your hand... "
Before he could finish, Daniel enthusiastically shook Kamen's dusty claws up and down.
He had successfully wiped all the dust from his claws onto Kamen's hand and was satisfied as he let go.
Then he patted Kamen on the shoulder with his right hand which still had some dust on it. He said solemnly:
"Cousin, I've missed you so much after not seeing you for so long."
More dust transferred onto Kamen's shoulder.
Kamen's face turned green but he couldn't get a word out.
Daniel wiped his now clean hands, satisfied, and sauntered back to Chloe’s side.
As Kamen passed Chloe, his gaze was sinister. “Just you wait. On the arena, I will definitely trample you beneath my feet.”
Chloe smiled. She didn’t bother with him but feigned astonishment. “My my... Ah, classmate why is your hand and shoulder so dirty? How unsanitary!”
Kamen: “......”
He glared fiercely at Chloe again before hurriedly leaving with his people.
After seeing them off, Chloe shook her head with a sigh. “Such thin-skinned children really can’t take jokes.”
Daniel deeply agreed. “You got that right.”
After observing for a long time, Ren Yunying pressed her fingertips to her brow, helpless. “You guys are truly masters at pissing people off. ”
It’d be best if you could refrain from angering her as much as possible.
Chloe guiltily glanced at the sky.
“Oh, that reminds me,” Ren Yunying suddenly recalled, “The military academies’ Resource Competition is in another few months. You all have to train well during this period.”
Chloe blinked. “I will, don’t worry Instructor.”
The so-called Resource Competition was where each of the four military academies would send out a main competition team they selected. These teams were thrown into various extremely dangerous barren planets to compete. The winner would obtain investments from the various big familias.
And these investments would be used to develop the military academies. There were also substantial rewards for the main competition teams who won.
The ones the No. 1 Military Academy selected this time were the leaders of the various major races. This meant Katherine would also be participating in the competition with them.
After Ren Yunying explained, Chloe and the others now understood this competition. Just as they were about to sneak off, Ren Yunying caught them and dragged them off to train.
In Ren Yunying’s hand was a whip. She smiled, “You were selected through rigorous screening to be the main competition team members of the No. 1 Military Academy. You carry the honor of the entire academy on your shoulders. How could you be so lax?”
Her words were like a demon’s whispers. “From now on, every break, lunch break, after school and morning, come here for special training.”
Everyone: “......Okay.”
......
In the next few months, Chloe and the others were tortured to near death by Ren Yunying’s training regimen. Every day they wished they could just crawl back to their own villas.
Today, Chloe sprawled limply on the smooth floor of the training chamber. She shook her head blankly. “Not even Xavier has tortured me so continuously at such high intensity......”
This instructor really was a devil crawled out from the deepest pits of hell!
Also sprawled on the floor were Qin Huaibei and Daniel. Katherine stood by the wall holding a bottle of water, panting heavily. Anderson had a bit of an idol’s image to keep up. He sat on the long bench for rests but had an equally exhausted expression.
Daniel panted, “Can I... refuse... to participate?”
Qin Huaibei forced himself up to punch Daniel.
Daniel: “Oww!!!”
Qin Huaibei smiled. “How could you abandon your brothers and leave alone?”
They noisily clamored even during the few precious minutes of rest time and couldn’t get any peace.
Listening to their voices, Chloe felt an itchiness in her teeth.
This wasn’t the first time she experienced this sensation. Previously when this happened, she would take the initiative to put on her bite guard to avoid hurting anyone.
But today, Chloe faintly felt something was off.
She took off her bite guard and went to stand in front of the full length mirror in the training chamber. She opened her mouth wide to look at her fangs.
Noticing her actions, Anderson walked over and softly asked, “What’s wrong?”
Chloe frowned. “My teeth are so itchy.”
“Let me see.”
Anderson held Chloe’s chin and peered at her fangs. His brows then quirked up as he said,
“Young miss, your teeth are growing out.”
Chloe was stunned. “Huh?”
Anderson’s eyes glinted with laughter.
“The tooth you knocked out should finish growing back after some time.”
