C12

Zhou Ruo'an sat up in bed early in the morning and looked at her white palm expressionlessly. She slowly suppressed the unease in her heart.

Looking at the gradually thinning darkness outside, Zhou Ruo'an's eyes were filled with determination.

"Let me see, in the collision between the modern world and the ancient world, who is the better one," Zhou Ruo'an said in a low voice.

At this moment, Hongxiu walked in stealthily. She did not expect Zhou Ruo'an to have already woken up.

She paused in her steps for a moment before admitting her mistake without any hesitation, "This servant has failed in her duty."

As a pure modern man, Zhou Ruo'an did not like such master-servant relationship.

He looked expressionlessly at the dark top of Hongxiu's hair and said, "I got up early, so wake up."

Hongxiu secretly heaved a sigh of relief. However, before she could straighten up, she heard Zhou Ruo'an's voice again.

"Don't kneel in front of me anymore, I don't like it," Zhou Ruo'an said.

Hongxiu's expression changed as she bent her legs and was about to kneel down once more.

A trace of impatience flashed across Zhou Ruo'an's eyes. She said straightforwardly, "This is the rule here. If you don't like it, you can go back."

Hongxiu's eyes reddened. She did half of what she wanted to do, but she didn't dare to actually kneel down.

Although she had only served by Zhou Ruo'an's side for a few days, she had already figured out Zhou Ruo'an's personality and knew that she was a person who kept her word and wouldn't dare to speak carelessly.

"Servant, this servant understands," Hongxiu said in a low voice, gritting her teeth as she forced herself to stand up straight.

Zhou Ruo'an carelessly glanced at her and instructed, "Your hair should be crisp and clean. You don't need to step forward to shake the golden hairpin."

A hint of disapproval flashed across Hongxiu's eyes, but she didn't dare to voice it out because of what had happened. She helped to tie Zhou Ruo'an up.

Zhou Ruo'an couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she saw her current appearance through the blurry copper mirror. A trace of evil flashed past her eyes.

Looking at Uncle Zhao, Zhou Ruo'an went up to him without a second thought and asked, "Have you dealt with Ling Tianwang?"

Uncle Zhao looked at Zhou Ruo'an with a kind expression. He nodded and whispered, "So the prince has come out."

While the two of them were talking, Ling Tianwang coincidentally walked out from the inside.

A trace of admiration flashed through Zhou Ruo'an's eyes and was quickly retracted.

"Today is the day to test the results." Zhou Ruo'an looked at her with a pair of shining eyes that were filled with fighting spirit.

In Ling Tianwang's eyes, she was like a shining object, unconsciously attracting everyone's attention.

Ling Tianwang raised his eyebrows and said calmly, "I know, I hope you won't let me down."

Zhou Ruo'an raised her chin with a proud expression. Although their heights were quite different, their momentum was not weaker than Ling Tianwang.

"Of course not!" Zhou Ruo'an answered with a resolute tone.

A hint of surprise flashed across Ling Tianwang's eyes. He didn't say anything and just walked out quietly.

Zhou Ruo'an shrugged and directly followed behind him.

The two of them quickly arrived at the drill grounds. Those people had already formed a team, and their fighting spirits were high as they waited for the order.

Looking at the 23 new people, Ling Tianwang turned to Zhou Ruo'an and asked, "How do you want to test them?"

After she understood the hidden meaning behind Ling Tianwang's words, Zhou Ruo'an frowned and said, "According to the military rules, you don't need to think about letting them go."

"If they can't win under fair conditions," Zhou Ruo'an said, glancing at the twenty-three people standing quietly, "there's no need for this team to exist."

Seeing Zhou Ruo'an's determined expression, Ling Tianwang couldn't help but chuckle. He turned around and instructed, "Pick twenty-three people and come out."

The Vice Commander saluted before turning around to leave.

"Twenty-three is not enough. Pick fifty," Zhou Ruo'an said softly as she watched the deputy commander's retreating back. Even though her tone was calm, it didn't hide her arrogance.

Ling Tianwang glanced at him with a faint smile and warned, "The soldiers in my battalion don't only know how to flirt."

Zhou Ruo'an ignored him. Instead, she took two steps forward and shouted, "Today is an examination. Do you want to be fair, or do you want to prove yourselves?"

Even though the twenty-three of them had doubts in their hearts, none of them spoke to each other. They looked at Zhou Ruo'an with reverence in their eyes and shouted directly, "You have to prove yourself!"

The disorderly voices at the beginning quickly merged together, making it impossible for anyone to ignore them.

Ling Tianwang didn't expect Zhou Ruo'an to be so stubborn and overconfident. He narrowed his eyes and ordered, "Then do as he says!"

The Vice Commander bowed as he replied, and in his heart, he looked down upon Zhou Ruo'an.

There were hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the huge military camp, easily selecting fifty people.

"Today, your target is those 23 people." Standing in front of the scattered troops, the Vice Commander ordered expressionlessly, "Tell me, will you win or lose?"

The people who were chosen had long heard of the competition. They were very indifferent towards Zhou Ruo'an and looked down on the people whom he had trained.

"Of course we win!" "They're just a few temporary teams, how could they possibly win against us?"

The roars mixed together, making it impossible for anyone to hear what was being said.

The Vice Commander couldn't help but frown as he couldn't help but recall Zhou Ruo'an's team that was in an orderly fashion.

But very quickly, the Vice Commander shook his head fiercely and told himself, "It's just some ludicrous stuff, that's all I like."

Seeing Zhou Ruo'an standing there quietly, Ling Tianwang raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you have anything else to say?"

Zhou Ruo'an took a deep breath, digging her nails into the meat. He slowly looked at his companion of seven days and asked coldly, "Do you still remember what you've practiced these past few days?"

"I remember!"

"Are you confident you can beat them?"

"Yes!"

"Alright!" Hearing their voices, Zhou Ruo'an's face finally broke out into a smile as she shouted, "If you win, I'll allow you to eat meat and drink wine!"

After these words were spoken, the eyes of those people immediately lit up. Their originally imposing and imposing aura became even more difficult to look at.

Ever since he met Zhou Ruo'an, Ling Tianwang had only seen her strong appearance. At this moment, his heart couldn't help but beat faster as he looked at the smile on her pretty face.

"She's a beautiful little girl," Ling Tianwang finally had such an idea in his heart.
