Chapter 163: Rapid Off-Road

The warm sun ruled the sky, birds happily chirped as they danced above the tree-shaded military camp, until suddenly, a sky-piercing roar erupted, like thunder, startling the birds into frenzied flight. From within the camp, a team burst forth, each member clad in jungle camouflage training garb, helmets on heads, and carrying ten-kilogram packs, led by one man who howled as they charged out of the camp.

The leader was Luo Zheng, freshly donned in training attire for fairness and to command respect. Shouldering the same ten-kilogram burden, he sprinted ahead, leading the team on the first round of selection. They stormed out of the camp gates and onto a trail leading into the mountains, usually trodden during field training.
