“Boss. Actually, you are worse than her,” Little Four couldn’t take it anymore and mutter softly.

He then felt a malicious aura flying towards him and quickly ran away. No matter what Ling Lan did, he didn’t reply to her anymore. Ling Lan knew that Little Four was trying to get away from her scolding.

Little Four’s words made Ling Lan scratched her nose uncontrollably. According to what he said, she seemed more like a man as compared to Ice Spirit. Ice Spirit was still recognized as a woman but her companions probably never thought that she was a girl.

Ling Lan felt depressed. Why didn’t her companions suspect her at all? She inherited all her mother’s beautiful looks… Ling Lan just couldn’t find an answer. She pretended that it was because her companions were blind. She would not admit that it was because her aura was too domineering and vicious so no one dared to properly look at her.

At this time, three people came over together. They were all around 30 years old. One of them tried to hide his power but Ling Lan still detected the violent power hiding within his muscular body. Ling Lan retracted her thoughts and became vigilant.

“Commander!” The three people saw Senior Colonel Mi and walked towards him quickly.

“Ling Lan, this is Domineering Blade, Devil Blade, and Divine Blade.” Senior Colonel Mi introduced the three people to Ling Lan.

Then, he called Crazy Warrior and Ice Spirit over. He introduced Ling Lan to them. “This is recruit Ling Lan.”

When her name was announced, the expressions of all five people changed. Devil Blade even poked Domineering Blade with his elbow.

Ling Lan and Senior Colonel Mi saw their expression. Senior Colonel Mi smiled. “Yes, this is the recruit that hurt Lian Shaojing.”

Ice Spirit looked at Ling Lan with satisfaction. She said to Senior Colonel Mi, “Commander, are you planning to recruit Ling Lan into the special forces? If he doesn’t have a team yet, I want him.”

“My Elite Blade Team needs new blood too. Ice Spirit, you can wait for the next round,” Domineering Blade suddenly spoke.

Ice Spirit raised her eyebrows in surprise. She was willing to accept Ling Lan into her team because she didn’t want a talented soldier like him to get hurt in the special forces. She knew who recommended Lian Shaojing. That unscrupulous battle team would use all their means to take revenge on this recruit. If he didn’t have a team to support him, Ling Lan would have a hard time in the special forces.

However, she didn’t expect the strongest battle team, the Elite Blade, to step in. The Elite Blade was a superior team which didn’t care about the conflicts between the other teams within the special forces. Why did they decide to step in this time? Did Ling Lan have ties with the Elite Blade Battle Team? Or were they enticed to take him in because of his abilities?

Ice Spirit got more interested in Ling Lan. She didn’t give way and replied, “Domineering Blade, you can’t s.n.a.t.c.h all the prodigies that enters the special forces. The Ice Frost Battle Team needs new members to increase our strength too. Why don’t you let us have this recruit this time?”

Crazy Warrior saw the arrogant Domineering Blade and Ice Spirit, who didn’t like males, fighting over Ling Lan, and his interest perked. He pretended to persuade them, “Domineering Blade, Ice Spirit, it is not good to fight over a recruit. Why not you let Ling Lan enter my team?”

“Shameless!” The man and the woman shouted at him simultaneously. Domineering Blade glared at Crazy Warrior angrily. This person was trying to benefit from their discord!

Sparks flew between the three captains. Senior Colonel Mi noticed that the situation was getting out of hand and quickly coughed. He said, “Ling Lan is not here to join the special forces.”

“Huh?” Ice Spirit and Crazy Warrior exclaimed curiously. Devil Blade and Divine Blade exchanged glances with one another. They both had a look of disbelief on their faces. Even the calm Domineering Blade frowned when he heard this.

If this recruit was not here to join the special forces, why did he come to their headquarters? Only official members of the special forces could enter the headquarters. Everyone was puzzled.

“General Ling Xiao specially arranged for him to complete his team formation missions here,” Senior Colonel Mi shrugged as he explained. If you have any queries, find the general yourselves.

The five people stared at their commander angrily. Since General Ling Xiao made this arrangement, they had no other opinions. Even if they did, they would not dare to find the general.

Crazy Warrior regained his senses. He said happily, “Are we here to be examiners? If so, I volunteer to be the examiner for his first single mecha combat mission.”

Ice Spirit said after him, “The Ice Spirit Battle Team can be in charge of the team mission.”

Domineering Blade looked at Senior Colonel Mi. Since he had called three people from his Elites Blade Battle Team over. This matter was not so simple.

As expected, Senior Colonel Mi said, “Ling Lan had completed her single mecha combat mission. She is going to take her team battle mission now.”

Ice Spirit and Crazy Warrior were smart people. They immediately realized that something was going on.

“Ling Lan’s opponent has been chosen. She now lacks team members,” Senior Colonel Mi said seriously.

Devil Blade reacted the quickest. He pointed at Ling Lan and exclaimed, “You called us here to be his team member?”

Senior Colonel Mi nodded.

Crazy Warrior and Ice Spirit looked at Ling Lan intently. What background did this recruit have? With them around, he would definitely pa.s.s his team mission. His surname was Ling. Did he have any relations.h.i.+p with General Ling Xiao? They never heard that Ling Xiao had a son.

After Ling Xiao ‘died’ that year, the military hid the news that Ling Xiao had a child for various reasons. Only the higher authorities knew the secret. After Ling Xiao came back, he sent Ling Lan to the First Men’s Military Academy by mistake so he had no choice but to continue hiding the fact that he had a child. Thus, besides Ling Xiao’s close friends and the people in the general’s manor, no one knew this information.

Domineering Blade and his team members knew Ling Lan’s ident.i.ty but they didn’t believe that their general would open the backdoor for his son. They waited for their commander to give them an explanation.

“The opponent that the general chose for Ling Lan is the Flying Dragon Special Forces.” The five people were astounded when they heard this. Domineering Blade managed to calm down the fastest. “Why is it them?”

Senior Colonel Mi gave a forced smile. “This is the general’s arrangement. Also, all of you were chosen by Ling Lan, not me.”

Senior Colonel Mi wanted them to understand that Ling Lan had strong foresight and a.s.sessment skills. The people from the Flying Dragon Special Forces were strong. If the five of them didn’t listen to Ling Lan, there would be no chance of winning against the Flying Dragon Special Forces team at all. Senior Colonel Mi still hoped that Ling Lan would pa.s.s the mission. He also wished that his members would win against the Flying Dragon Special Forces too. Although the Flying Dragon Special Forces was the strongest special forces team, he knew that every captain of the special forces didn’t like to lose.

“I will take part in the battle against the Flying Dragon Special Forces team.” Crazy Warrior was the first to make a decision. He failed at the 5th task that time and didn’t make it into the Flying Dragon Special Forces. He was unwilling to accept his loss so since he had the chance to fight with them, he was extremely excited.

“The Flying Dragon Special Forces? I feel honored to be able to witness their strength.” Ice Spirit smiled. When she smiled, her features turned gentle. She appeared more feminine and Ling Lan couldn’t help but stare at her.

The three people from the Elite Blade Team had no objections too. They were from the Bladed Special Ops Team so they saw their commander fighting with a member of the Flying Dragon Special Forces before. The commander lost after half an hour. That time, they thought that if they had the chance, they must defeat the Flying Dragon Special Forces at least once and take revenge for their commander. More than ten years had pa.s.sed and finally, they got this chance.

Senior Colonel Mi nodded in satisfaction when all five people agreed. He reminded them, “This is the time and room number that the general had set. There are still 15 minutes before the battle starts. You all can have a discussion first.”

Senior Colonel Mi left the atrium and went to the spectator stand. As a morally upright soldier, he would not overstep his boundary. The Flying Dragon Special Forces was a tough nut to crack. They had to depend on themselves.

Senior Colonel Mi sighed. He knew that even if he stayed back, he would not be able to think of a good way to defeat the Flying Dragon Special Forces. To enter the Flying Dragon Special Forces, the mecha operator had to be close to achieving the status of an imperial operator. This meant that members of the Flying Dragon Special Forces sent out would be at least imperial operators.

Domineering Blade almost reached the imperial operator status but he wouldn’t be able to take on six real imperial operators alone. Senior Colonel Mi felt that Ling Lan would lose this battle. He just hoped that he would not be defeated too badly and lose his confidence. He wished that the people from the Flying Dragon Special Forces would not fail Ling Lan based on the results of the battle. If they did, Ling Lan had no chance of pa.s.sing the mission at all.
