Chapter 684 - 684: 518?
After Luo Yan rejoined the team, the female soldiers continued their physical training.
The girls chosen by Shen Ruojing all had excellent physical fitness, but even so, there was still a significant gap in physical strength between the female soldiers and the male soldiers.
Moreover, the training time was indeed too short, and they could not achieve the level of physical fitness of the teams participating in the martial arts competition.
However, since Yan Zixuan promised them a spot, he would not go back on his word.
So, this year, the Yan family’s army submitted an additional female soldier team for the martial arts competition.
This news immediately caused a sensation among the three armies and Country A.
While discussing state affairs with the King, the heads of the Luo and Ji families blocked the path of Family Leader Yan, laughing together.
“Family Leader Yan, are you tired of being the champion and planning to give it to us this year? Well, we’ll gladly accept!”
“Yeah, Family Leader Yan, it’s one thing to have a female soldier team in the Yan family’s army. But to let them represent the Yan family’s army in the martial arts competition? What is the Yan family’s army thinking? Isn’t this obviously giving the championship spot to us?”
The two bowed to each other. “Then our Luo family won’t be polite.”
“It should be our Ji family who won’t be polite…”
Family Leader Yan, watching the two of them pretending to be polite, felt furious inside.
Did those two think he was willing to do this?
It was that damn son of his who secretly submitted the list without his permission!
Now it was impossible to take it back.
All he could do was grit his teeth and bear it.
Family Leader Yan took a deep breath and ignored the two, walking away.
However, the subordinates in the Yan family’s army gathered around Family Leader Yan, unable to help but say, ’Sir, what is going on? Are Princess Shen’s female soldiers our secret weapon this year?”
“Sending the female soldier team to the competition is giving the other military factions a chance, isn’t it?”
“It’s ridiculous!”
The internet had exploded with discussion:
— 1 can understand Princess Shen organizing a female soldier team since she’ll need her own bodyguards in the future, but why participate in the martial arts competition?
— Has the Yan family gone too far? Can female soldiers represent a team? This is too much!
—What should we do? I’m drunk on the Princess’s filter. Will she use her power to threaten them and force them to win?
—I know the Princess wants to achieve something, but this is too impatient!
—Do women want to rise? Or arc they joking about competing with men as soldiers?
—I think this female soldier team is a big joke! Will we see a group of female soldiers crying and wailing in the competition? Or will they use their beauty to gain the sympathy of male soldiers?
Shen Ruojing had already seen the comments online.
Shen Qianhui contacted her, asking if she wanted to guide public opinion or have Country A’s official account say something for her.
Shen Ruojing, however, laughed and said, “No need. Let’s wait until the competition is over and use the results to slap their faces.”
Shen Qianhui know her daughter’s abilities, and since her daughter had said so, she didn’t interfere anymore and only reminded her, “Be careful during the martial arts competition/’
“Okay.”
Shen Ruojing hung up the phone and saw Yan Zixuan and Ji Wuyou, who were in charge of the martial arts competition, looking at her with worried expressions.
Ji Wuyou couldn’t help but ask, “Princess, arc you sure you can do this?”
Shen Ruojing lowered her eyes and smiled faintly. “What can’t I do? Don’t forget who I am…”
Yan Zixuan scoffed, “Who can you be? Aren’t you just the Princess? Although 1 can see that your physical fitness is good through the training, you’ve now pushed yourself to the center of attention online. 1 don’t know how you’re going to wrap this up! If it’s too embarrassing, don’t blame the people of Country A for mocking you!”
Ji Wuyou immediately looked at Yan Zixuan. “Don’t make sarcastic remarks here. Let me tell you, when we enter the competition later, remember to protect the Princess and follow her orders!”
Yan Zixuan was also one of the soldiers participating in the martial arts competition.
The Yan family’s army was led by him.
Of course, the Luo family’s army and Ji family’s army were also led by their respective young marshals.
Upon hearing this, Yan Zixuan frowned. “Let me obey the Princess? How is that possible? Let me toll you, I never listen to women’s orders. But don’t worry, I will protect her well.”
Ji Wuyou frowned immediately. “Princess is not an ordinary woman, she…”
Before ho could finish, Yan Zixuan interrupted, “Evon if she’s not an ordinary woman, she’s still a woman. Do you think she’s my idol 518? If she were my idol, I would listen to her. But unfortunately, she’s not! So, once we enter the competition, cousin, you better follow orders! Just don’t cause us any trouble!”
Although Yan Zixuan’s attitude toward Shen Ruojing and the others had changed, his distrust was still apparent for the competition.
Ji Wuyou, who knew that Shen Ruojing was 518, was stunned. “What did you just say? Who’s your idol again?”
“518!”
“Oh, do you know who the Princess is?”
