Ning Shuying was furious.

As the inheritor of the title of Star Lord of the Greedy Wolf from the Myth Organization, she deeply felt the heavy responsibility on her shoulders. The moment she joined the Myth Organization, she had sworn an oath to bring true peace and warmth to this world.

It might sound rather ludicrous and laughable, but this was her true ideal. It was why she practiced martial arts and why she inherited the title of Star Lord of the Greedy Wolf—all because of this.

In ancient Chinese legends, the Greedy Wolf did not merely signify slaughter; it also carried the connotation of bringing peace and wealth to the era. This was her true ideal and pursuit.

Ning Shuying was Chinese, but she was born in Eastern Europe. Her parents were war correspondents, constantly abroad, even when she was about to be born. As a child, Ning Shuying had accompanied her parents and witnessed too much war and slaughter—so much that, in the end, war and slaughter took her parents from her.

By the age of eight, she was an orphan.

The "West Emperor," who was not yet the leader of the Myth Organization at the time, happened to pass through the war-torn region. He encountered her, took her in as his foster daughter, and began to teach her martial arts.

After the Myth Organization was established, Ning Shuying naturally followed the West Emperor and joined, becoming its youngest member. She was only eighteen when she joined. Now, more than three years later, she was only twenty-one.

A twenty-one-year-old Innate Realm pinnacle!

Even among the descendants of the Ancient Divine Sects in the hidden Martial Dao world, this was extremely rare. Without a doubt, she was a remarkably outstanding genius.

This was all because of the ideal that had taken root in her heart since childhood, an ideal that had emerged back then and grown steadily ever since!

To bring peace, to protect the tranquility of the people, one must possess incredibly powerful strength. This has been an unchanging truth since ancient times.

The reason Ning Shuying was now on Penglai Island, serving as an instructor for these students, was precisely this.

Having powerful strength as an individual is not enough. Human strength is ultimately finite. Perhaps after cultivating to a superhuman extent, one could indeed do anything with expansive Divine Skills. But now, with Spiritual Energy on the brink of revival and the world about to change, there was no time for that.

In Ning Shuying's view, whether nations or individuals, all needed sufficiently powerful strength to face the impending drastic changes in the world.

She had actually proposed this military training on Penglai Island to the West Emperor. It was an opportunity to quickly cultivate a reserve force with foundational combat capabilities for the country and its people. These were the students from Beijing University, Tsinghua University, and Fudan University who were about to undergo military training.

She truly intended to protect this country, this land, and its people. She also greatly desired for these students to possess a certain level of foundational combat strength, so that in the face of future unforeseen events, they could protect themselves and, consequently, others.

Therefore, Ning Shuying valued this military training immensely, viewing it with unparalleled importance!

But now, someone was causing trouble, daydreaming while she was speaking! She found this unacceptable and decided to show this ignorant student a dose of reality.

Without strength, one will not be able to stand in the world after the revival of Spiritual Energy!

"Come out! What's your name!" Ning Shuying pointed at Qin Heng, her stunning face flushed red with anger. Her ample chest heaved beneath her leather jacket; clearly, she was furious.

"Qin Heng, his name is Qin Heng, reporting to Instructor Ning!"

"Fairy Sister, his name is Qin Heng! The Qin from Qin Shi Huang, the Heng from Yongheng, for 'Eternal'!"

Several male students gloated and snickered as they snitched, seemingly eager to see Qin Heng embarrassed. After all, Qin Heng was tall and handsome, very popular with the girls, and many boys were jealous of him.

"Betraying your teammates! On the battlefield, this is grounds for execution by firing squad!"

Ning Shuying suddenly bellowed, her gaze sharp as a blade. She glared at the few boys who had just tattled, clenching her silver teeth in extreme anger, and said sternly, "You lot, come out immediately and run ten laps around this tarmac!"

What she detested most were those who betrayed their own teammates. If they weren't merely students and first-time offenders, she would have punished them severely.

At her words, the crowd suddenly fell silent.

Many were stunned. There were several tarmacs here, and the one they were standing on was at least five kilometers per lap!

Ten laps! That's fifty kilometers!

"Oh my God!"

The few boys who had been smirking and tattling, hoping to see Qin Heng embarrassed, were now dumbstruck. Their smiles froze on their faces, and they looked as if they had been struck by lightning.

They were frozen in fright!

They wanted to beg for mercy.

However, Ning Shuying didn't give them the chance. The Sword Box on her back trembled, and immediately, several sword lights, dark as ink, flew out and locked onto those boys. "You don't have to run," she stated coolly, "but only if you can withstand these sword lights."

The atmosphere quieted down once more.

The boys who saw Ning Shuying's sword lights trembled with fright. These were sword lights capable of annihilating missiles! Who would want to face such a thing? It's suicide!

"We'll go! We'll go, Instructor Ning, please retract your sword lights!"

"Please, Instructor Ning, retract your sword lights! We'll run, we'll definitely run!"

Shouting, they scrambled from the formation and started running around the tarmac, not daring to stop for a moment because Ning Shuying's sword lights had not yet been retracted and were still hovering in the air.

The three of them felt truly despondent.

However, when they thought of Qin Heng, they felt somewhat consoled. That guy is definitely going to be punished even more severely! He was distracted while Instructor Ning was talking and showed no respect at all!

Now, everyone was scared. No one dared to utter a single word. They stood firmly in place, intently watching ahead, fearing they might be the next to be punished.

"Qin Heng. So your name is Qin Heng, right?" Ning Shuying looked at him, her gaze extremely cold. "Step forward. Let me see what gives you the right to be so arrogant!"

In Ning Shuying's opinion, Qin Heng was likely the troublemaker of the team, someone with no real abilities who nonetheless considered himself superior. Such a presence could easily corrupt the team's spirit. Her purpose in conducting military training was to enable these ordinary students to gain a certain degree of strength after grueling training—a very difficult process.

Therefore, such a bad apple could absolutely not be tolerated!

Qin Heng looked at Ning Shuying dispassionately. "Greedy Wolf Star Lord," he said, "even the West Emperor wouldn't dare speak to me like that. Your spirit is very pure, but anything too rigid breaks easily. Being overly focused on one thing isn't always good. However, your intentions are commendable. Tell you what, apologize to me now, and I can overlook your disrespect."

WHOOSH!

At that moment, a sea breeze swept past.

Qin Heng's words echoed in every student's ears. Instantly, everyone was stunned!
