The Superb Company organized themselves into groups. When they were done, one person would drive their group to a different starting point. Everyone was given minimal ammunition and dry provisions. They were also given a compass and an army knife.

They departed at eight in the morning and had to assemble at eight at night at the designated location. Those who did not make it back in time would not receive an immediate zero, but they would receive a very low mark.

The students were free to get into their own groups. Because there was some danger in the journey, everyone tried to stick together. Several groups asked Sophia to join them, but she refused.

As long as she had a gun and a knife, she was not worried.

Moreover, because these were children of senior military officers, they were guaranteed backup. Everyone had to wear a wristband that monitored their physical condition.

If something unusual was happening to their bodies, their wristbands would automatically release their coordinates and the people on standby would fly their helicopters out and arrive at the scene within a few minutes.

Not to mention, the wild animals at the field training exercise were intentionally released from the hunting grounds. They were raised since they were young so they were not as wild. At most, they were just used to scare people off. Each one of them also had a serial number programmed in the wristband; if they got close to the students, the wristbands would automatically make a report.

All that information was revealed by Michael. Michael seemed to possess unnatural powers. The barracks was like his back garden where he came and went as he pleased, and his whereabouts were always a mystery. He was not a force to be reckoned with.

Meanwhile, Stanley shamelessly wanted to be in the same group as Sophia.

Even though he did not join the army, the blood of a soldier from the long line of soldiers in his family was still in him. Those types of training were not difficult for him, but he wanted to tag along and bother Sophia.

 

The day before the field training exercise, everything was handed out to them. Sophia took a shower then started to pack her things for the following day.

She had all the products she needed for her hair, some dry provisions, water, band-aids, disinfectant spray, fast-acting calming pills, mosquito repellant, a gun, a few bullets, a knife, a compass, and the wristband. All of which she stuffed into her backpack.
 

After she was done with everything, she lay back down on the bed and turned on her iPad. She logged into Messenger and saw a new friend request: Joel Fletcher.

Joel!

Sophia was shocked. She immediately accepted the request and he promptly sent her a message after. ‘Do well in the field training exercise tomorrow.’

The commanding general is looking out for me!

Without any delay, she replied, ‘Yes, General.’
