Chapter 1259: Chapter 1261 - Did He Hear That Right?

Very quickly, Ye Jian’s High CO2 tolerance test table was handed to Li Jinnian, who was currently on the phone. Looking at the data in his hands, the usually aloof Devil King couldn’t stop himself from cocking his brows. The female soldier who managed to catch Xia Jinyuan’s fancy… is indeed quite unusual.

“How about it? Does she meet the requirements to stay?” The Navy Commander’s imposing voice could be heard from the speaker. He was currently inquiring about Ye Jian, “So early in the morning and you didn’t give that female soldier from the Ground Forces time to gain her bearings. The moment she got here, you made her run with weights, then you even started her high-pressure tests, Li Jinnian, you’ve got quite the guts in you!”

The physical quality of female soldiers had always been worse than male soldiers. He even arranged the tests so packed to each other that the Navy Commander’s back was covered in a cold sweat when he heard about it.

Forget about the hypoxia test; she even went through half an hour of High CO2 tolerance testing! Did they really treat that female soldier as a member of the Storm Commandos? How audacious!

“Didn’t I tell you, since the Ground Forces had steeled their hearts to send her over here, no matter how good or bad she is, just keep her for now! You still have to give the Ground Forces some face! She’s here, and we’ve let her stay. As to the subsequent training results, they’re none of your problems. It’s whether or not the female soldier had put in her own hard work!”

“You also shouldn’t demand too much! She’s a female soldier, after all! Unless you’re hoping that a female soldier could turn into a dragon or sea serpent in the ocean like you guys? Li Jinnian, wake up! It doesn’t matter if she’s good or not, trainable or not, or whether she could keep up with your training or not! No matter what, you will have to f*cking keep her here!”

One sentence, she must be kept here, if you want to send her back, no can do!

After speaking for several minutes without receiving so much as half an acknowledgment, the Navy Commander gave himself a cup of cold water. He was prepared to keep his temper in check as he gave his underling a good lesson of ‘the ways of people.’ Seeking truth from facts wasn’t wrong, but you must grab your timings correctly!

Being strict when selecting Storm Commando Unit members, he didn’t have any opinion against that as their Commander. Furthermore, he absolutely approves of it! After all, the members that were selected will be carrying out missions with their lives at stake, how can they be careless?

But Ye Jian was different; she’s a soldier from the Ground Forces. No matter if she was good or bad, the Navy army only needed to complete the requests from the Ground Forces according to their usual training schedule. There’s no need to be so competitive to prevent harming the peace.

Li Jinnian, who was listening silently, knew the thoughts in the heart of his Commander. It’s one matter that he knew about it in his heart, but if he really tried to make him do it, that’s definitely impossible! Doesn’t matter if the female soldier is from the Ground Forces or not, since she’s here in his unit, then he’ll treat her seriously, and definitely not just put on a show for her.

This was being responsible for her, and also being responsible for himself.

As to whether or not she’s trainable… Truthfully, when he saw the results on the table, even he was quite surprised. Closing the document in his hands, Li Jinnian’s thin lips arched upwards ever so slightly as he revealed an obscure smile, he replied indifferently: “She’s surpassed my initial expectations.”

Surpassed initial expectations? Is he complimenting Ye Jian? Did he hear that right!?

Originally prepared to lecture his underling, the Navy Commander straightened his gaze as he bellowed: “Heh, surpassed your initial expectations. Do you think the Ground Forces are bored on their toes, and simply picked someone to shove into your hands?” While letting out a long sigh of relief in his heart, he continued: “If she could surpass your initial expectations, then she should have results higher than the average.”

Li Jinnian had managed to become the Captain of the frogmen unit at such a young age, not because he was born handsome or because he was highly educated; instead, it was because his abilities were more than enough to convince everyone.

Adding to that, his standards towards himself was extremely harsh; he was always by his comrades’ side during every training, doesn’t matter that the style of their training had always been in a harsh state; his comrades in the unit had never complained about it, each and every one of them was fully convinced by him, heart and soul.
