Lin Xun stood up at once, and wondered why he couldn’t return to the Camp 39.
But after hearing the conditions given by Young Man, Lin Xun felt relieved secretly. Sitting back in the chair, he was deeply lost in thought.
From today, if he agreed to stay here to help Old Mo refine the new-style Ziying Battleship, he would get a bottle of Condensate Pills as well as ten points every day.
What was more, Lin Xun no longer had to take part in various kinds of cruel training, which meant that he would not be eliminated.
The conditions were appealing; however, having thought over and over, Lin Xun couldn’t agree, because he came here not for enjoyment but for self-improvement!
Lin Xun would never forget how helpless and angry he was when facing the persecution of Yao Tuohai in Donglin School.
He would never forget either how powerless and aggrieved he felt when the classic and noble woman took away Shia Zhi, and he could do nothing, but let it happen right before his eyes.
The training in the Bloodthirsty Camp enabled Lin Xun to find a chance to be a true overmatch. Extremely cruel as it was, it was obviously helpful in building up fighting capacity; therefore, Lin Xun wouldn’t give up all of this.
“I can agree to help Old Mo, but I can’t give up various training subjects in the Camp 39!” Lin Xun appeared to be determined and indubitable.
“Do you like torturing yourself?” Young Man was very interested.
Lin Xun was not in the mood for joking. Shaking his head, Lin said seriously, “For getting stronger.”
Staring at the determined expression of the boy, she said suddenly,” Actually, you don’t have to force yourself to take part in those training subjects. I can completely help you get stronger.”
“You?” Lin Xun was in a daze. Looking at the beautiful and sexy face of Young Man, he seemed to want to make sure whether Young Man was joking.
“What? You look down upon me?”
Young Man ran her fingers through her hair, and slightly straighten her waist. With a dash of extremely powerful and oppressive momentum appearing in her clear eyes, it seemed that she became another person suddenly, and her charming and sexy aura had been replaced by a dash of terrifying momentum.
Lin Xun got stiff all over, feeling pain as if his skin had been pricked with numerous needles, and even his soul couldn’t help but faintly tremble.
Finally, Lin Xun realized that the sexy and beautiful lady before his eyes was a terrifying ace actually!
Just by a dash of frightening aura given off by her inadvertently, you could see that.
“Those training subjects in the Bloodthirsty Camp are just child’s play, and can only be described as ‘cruel’. I have many training programs crueler than those subjects. If you want to have a try, I can be your training partner.”
Just for an instant, Young Man returned to her sexy and lazy appearance. She looked at Lin Xun flirtatiously. Gently opening her red lips and exhaling a rich perfume like that given off by an orchid, Young Man said, “The chance is precious. Many guys can’t get it even they struggle very hard for it.”
At this time, even Old Mo in the distance opened his mouth,” Hey, young man, it is a golden opportunity. With a drillmaster as Young Man, you will not be regretful even you die in her training.”
Young Man’s starry eyes looked fierce. She glared at Old Mo coldly, and the latter lowered his head at once, and shut his mouth tamely.
Lin Xun was indeed interested.
Bang! Just at the moment, the door of the warehouse was kicked open. The solitary straight figure of Young Ke who was in a military uniform appeared at the door. The delicate fair face showed no emotion as usual.
But in the eyes of Lin Xun, Drillmaster Young Ke looked murderous all over at the moment, making the atmosphere in the warehouse awful.
“It is natural that I train my own trainee. From tomorrow, I will train you personally every afternoon.”
Staring at Lin Xun, Young Ke said coldly, and then turn around and left, without casting a single glance at anyone else throughout.
Although Young Ke had left, the atmosphere in the warehouse was still silent.
Old Mo shot a glance at Young Man. Seeming to think of something, Old Man just couldn’t help sighing. After shaking his head, Old Mo continued to study those spiritual tattoos. While Young Man sank into silence.
Lin Xun was sure that Young Man and Young Ke were twins, but the relationship between them was obviously a little bit weird.

He couldn’t say anything more about it.
“With Young Ke to train you personally, er… it is also quite good,” Young Man said with a smile after quite a while.
But Lin Xun could feel that she was a little bit absent-minded in spite of a smile.
…
Early next morning, when the trainees of the Camp 39 prepared to begin the training, they all found that one person was missing.
Young Ke didn’t explain anything about it.
Many thoughts rose in the minds of the other trainees naturally, while Ning Meng strived to resist his impulsion to ask about it.
Lin Xun was still not there at breakfast time, and many trainees thought Lin Xun might have been eliminated by Drillmaster Young Ke because he was always bottom of Camp 39 in accumulated points.
Ning Meng couldn’t help frowning and wondering what was the matter with Lin Xun.
It was not until noon that all the trainees in the Camp 39 heard that Lin Xun was taken away by a spiritual tattooist who intended to let Lin be his assistant and deal with some chores for him.
Many trainees couldn’t help sneering and thought Lin’s behavior was undoubtedly equal to giving up the training in the camp, which had no difference from being eliminated in dejection.
After knowing the hearsay, Ning Meng couldn’t help frowning again. How he wished he could catch Lin Xun to cruelly beat him up. Lin Xun was just too coward, and could it be true that he indeed intended to give up?
Ning Meng felt rather irritated and upset as well.
…
“Lin Xun is quite cunning for sure. Knowing he always ranked at the bottom every day by his points and it was hard for him to change the situation, he initiatively admitted that he was a coward, and then escaped, which makes it hard for us to find a chance to fix him.”
During lunch, Qi Can, Shin Wenbin and other trainees of the same circle gathered together. When talking about the hearsay about Lin Xun, one trainee couldn’t help sneering.
“Cunning? I don’t think so. He is only a coward since he even can’t hold on straight to the end in the training,” A girl nearby said in a tone of disdain. The girl was pretty, and reserved in deportment. Her name was Wen Mingxiu, who ranked among the best in the camp, and only a little bit inferior to Qi Can.
“Ha-ha, right, He is just a clown!”
Many trainees burst out laughing.
Only Shin Wenbin was quite depressed. With his face looking gloomy, he said, “With his leaving, I can’t find any chance to vent my grievance. He is so hateful!”
Qi Can faintly smiled, “Don’t worry! As long as he is still in the Bloodthirsty Camp, I don’t believe that he could hide forever and not appear in the monthly test ten more days later.”
The monthly test was to test the general performance of a trainee after a month’s training so as to keep the superior and eliminate the inferior.
On that day, the forty camps in the Bloodthirsty Camp would were divided into twenty groups, with every two camps in a group, and the trainees would fight with each other. Those who performed well could stay, while those whose performance was among the bottom in the ranking would be eliminated.
By then, the forty camps would be merged, with half of them cut down, and the rest of them left. Therefore, for all the trainees in the forty camps, no one dare be careless about the monthly test coming ten more days later.
It was worth mentioning that those trainees whose performance was not qualified in daily training would be directly eliminated as before.
In short, in the Bloodthirsty Camp, you would be eliminated if you could not finish the daily training; even if you finished the training, you might also be eliminated if your performance ranked at the bottom.
After repeated sifting, those left were definitely the best of the best and geniuses of the geniuses.
“OK, I’ll wait for the monthly test to see whether the little bastard dare appear!” Shin Wenbin said resentfully with his teeth gritted.
At the other side of the dining hall, Shi Yu was eating his lunch leisurely. After a while, he suddenly said to himself with a smile, “It is definitely not the idea of Lin Xun.”
Next to Shi Yu sat a boy with cold expression, and his name was Lee Qiu. His performance was quite extraordinary, and often ranked in the top five in the daily training.
“What do you mean?” Lee Qiu said. He was not interested in Lin Xun, but since Shi Yu talked about him, he needed to respond naturally.
“I know Lin’s character. Though he looks innocent in appearance, his heart is as firm as a rock. He is a guy who will struggle to do his best once he determines to do something.”
Shi Yu muttered to himself, “It is hard to change the determination of such a boy, and it is unlikely for him to retreat and admit defeat. If the hearsay is true, then Lin Xun certainly did not ask for it voluntarily; instead, the spiritual tattooist must feel satisfied with certain advantage of Lin, so he took Lin away.”
Lee Qiu showed a gleam of interest at the moment, and he said, “So you mean Lin Xun was forced?”
Shi Yu smiled, “Maybe Lin Xun was not forced, but it was definitely not what he had demanded voluntarily. We don’t know what he is capable of doing, but a spiritual tattooist spares no effort to get him, which appears to be a little bit unusual.”
Lee Qiu was surprise and said, “Since you think highly of Lin, why not draw him over to your side?”
Shi Yu smiled, without saying anything.
Lee Qiu realized at once Shi Yu had his own ideas, so he didn’t to ask more, but he was curious. Lin Xun, the tailender of Camp 39, was definitely not an ordinary boy if he was just like what Shi Yu had said.
“Prepare yourselves well! We can’t helplessly see Camp 39 be defeated by other camps in the monthly test. I, Shi Yu, can’t endure such a shame”
A hint of despising all opponents flashed across the eyes of Shi Yu. “Winning is our only choice!” he said.
“Winning is our only choice...” Lee Qiu repeated in the heart. He felt extremely excited and ambitious. He liked this feeling.
...
It was theory course in the afternoon. None of the trainees noticed that Drillmaster Young Ke had disappeared. It was the Fatty Middle-aged who led them to the class.
At the same time, a cold voice arose in the empty warehouse-
“More strength!”
“Not perfect enough in skill!”
“More resolute!”
“Too slow in your movement! Can’t you be like a man?”
“Attack! Attack! Attack!”
Lin Xun was being trained by Drillmaster Young Ke personally. Instead of saying it was training, we might as well say he was cruelly tortured unilaterally.
Over and over again, he was severely knocked into the air like a sandbag, with stars dancing before his eyes, his face black and blue, and all his bones almost broken.
But Young Ke just stood in situ all along. A suit of military uniform made her straight figure look like a mountain peak, solitary, steep and unshakable.
While in the distance, Young Man looked at Lin Xun with her eyes full of compassion. But the corners of her sexy mouth were quirked up slightly, and she thought it might be good for Lin to suffer something, at least he could become strong soon.
As for Old Mo, he was lost in his own study selflessly, and was in no mood to see how miserably Lin was being tortured at the moment.
