2444 A Huge Trauma
“I’m similar to you. She ambushed me from behind and locked my neck too…” The student exhaled a mouthful of turbid air that was filled with the smell of white phosphorus. He shrugged his shoulders. “My shoulder must be bruised from the fall. I had my guard against her, but I still fell sideways. My shoulder bumped into a rock, and it hurt so much that my face turned pale.”
These two were the third-year students that Ye Jian rushed out to deal with. When they talked about how they were ‘killed’, there was still panic in their eyes.
One’s neck was the weakest and most lethal part.
At that moment, their necks were suddenly locked from behind. It felt as if their necks were bitten by a beast. As long as the beast closed its mouth, its sharp fangs would pierce through their necks. Then, if the beast bit hard, even their spines would be broken.
That feeling… was too terrifying. Until now, the trauma hadn’t dissipated. It was still lingering in their hearts.

“Junior Ye Jian… I’ve seen her skills for myself. I’m afraid He Qun doesn’t have much chance of winning against her.” The student who was knocked down by Ye Jian first massaged his comrade’s injured shoulder and said worriedly, “I’m afraid our reconnaissance team will fall into Ye Jian’s hands.”
The student with an injured shoulder endured the pain and said softly, “Don’t say that. Seven of us were ‘killed’. There are still eight of us left. Are you saying that eight people can’t defeat Ye Jian? Don’t scare me like that.”
“Why do you think it’s impossible? Look at the two of us. How long did she take to finish us off? Did she even take a minute? No, not even a minute! Also, she didn’t make a sound behind us. She finished us off secretly. With her ability, it’s too easy for her to kill the remaining eight.”
The psychological trauma Ye Jian left on this student was a little big. As he spoke, he touched his neck. There was a hint of lingering fear in his eyes. He said softly, “I can’t help but want to turn around and look… to see if she’s standing beside us.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the student with the injured shoulder glanced back instinctively and heard another comrade laugh.
“Damn, you scared me to death. Let’s not talk about it anymore. They’re here too.” When they saw the other four ‘dead’ comrades coming over with the ‘dead’ freshmen, the two of them stopped talking at the same time.
The ‘killed’ students stood at the side. They maintained the most basic drill rules and didn’t say anything to their comrades nearby. They stood at the side and waited quietly.
The thick smoke gradually dispersed, and the red tent appeared in everyone’s vision again. He Qun looked at the red tent and then at the students standing in the distance… From their physiques, there was no female soldier inside. That meant that none of their seven comrades had killed Ye Jian.
“What should we do? Are we going to waste time?” a student from the blue team asked He Qun. “We can’t waste time. Should we attack or retreat?”
“We can’t retreat. We came all the way here but didn’t manage to destroy their base. We didn’t capture the commander-in-chief of the red team, Ye Jian, either. If we retreat like this, won’t our comrades out there have ‘died’ in vain? I don’t agree with retreating.”
They couldn’t accept that seven of their comrades were killed in an instant!
He Qun looked around and pursed his lips. “If we don’t retreat, we should at least destroy the base station of the red team. As for capturing Ye Jian alive… Leave it to me. The rest of you, destroy the base station!”
“Sure! The red team doesn’t have many soldiers left. Split into groups of four. The first team will rush in and destroy the base station. The other team will deal with Ye Jian!”
