71: How did Chapter 71 end up here?

But no matter how much Golden Peace thought about it, he couldn't figure it out.

Captain Huo couldn't be bothered with all that. He spoke loudly on the Training Ground.

"What do you all think? Has Captain Li been slacking off in his training lately?"

The people on the field were all Volunteers. None dared to anger Captain Huo, but they also didn't dare offend Golden Peace, so they all chose to remain silent.

Captain Huo wasn't intentionally trying to make things difficult for them, so he continued speaking on his own.

"As you've all seen, Captain Li has indeed been somewhat lacking recently. So, making him run five laps shouldn't be a problem, right?"

The Volunteers on the field still didn't dare to speak.

Captain Huo continued, "Everyone, keep an eye on each other. We must ensure Captain Li completes all five laps!"

After saying this, Captain Huo threw his jacket over his shoulder, took a long stride, and left directly.

However, the anger in Captain Huo's heart still hadn't dissipated. He felt a fire burning inside him with nowhere to vent.

Ye Qingqing was unaware of all this.

Because at that moment, after returning to her room, Ye Qingqing immediately went back into her space to take a bath.

Looking at the bruises on her body, she gritted her teeth.

She thought Golden Peace had been truly ruthless, and that her own strength needed significant improvement.

Early the next morning, Ye Qingqing went to the Training Ground.

Since she wasn't familiar with the people around her, she stayed alone in a corner, waiting for Golden Peace to arrive.

When Ye Qingqing saw Golden Peace again, she noticed he was limping, wearing a mask and a hat that completely concealed his face.

What was even more bizarre was that Ye Qingqing noticed bandages on Golden Peace's hands and feet, and even visible through his clothes where they had soaked through.

White bandages were clearly visible.

He looked as if he had been beaten up and severely injured.

Curious, Ye Qingqing asked the Guy next to her, "Hey, what happened to Captain Li?"

The Guy beside her felt a flutter of excitement seeing such a pretty girl like Ye Qingqing initiate a conversation.

He spoke to Ye Qingqing with visible excitement.

"Well, Captain Huo came to the Training Ground yesterday, saying he wanted to inspect our training results."

When he got to this point, the Guy paused slightly, making sure Golden Peace wasn't looking in his direction.

Then he continued, "Guess what happened next? Captain Huo directly called out Captain Li for a sparring match."

The Guy grew more animated as he spoke.

"But it wasn't a sparring match at all! It was a one-sided beating by Captain Huo!"

"He used our Captain Li like a punching bag for over half an hour."

Ye Qingqing drew a sharp breath, thinking Golden Peace was truly unlucky, not knowing what God of Death he had offended.

But then she heard the Guy continue, "I'd only heard of Huo Sixian's reputation before, never seen him in person. Seeing him yesterday, he was exactly like the legends say."

When Ye Qingqing heard it was Huo Sixian, for some reason, her heart gave a violent tremble.

An inexplicable emotion welled up inexplicably in her heart.

Huo Sixian... did he do it specifically for her?

But very quickly, Ye Qingqing dismissed that thought. Regardless of whether Huo Sixian was as she imagined, it had nothing to do with her.

At this moment, Ye Qingqing's mind held only one thing: getting stronger.

To be honest, the training for the Volunteers was quite similar to when Huo Sixian had trained Ye Qingqing before.

The only difference was one was private tutoring, the other a group class.

Although Golden Peace was covered in injuries, he showed no leniency during training.

From Ye Qingqing's observation, everyone in the team seemed to fear him.

However, unlike Ye Qingqing's side where they were training diligently...

Xu Xueke, who had heard yesterday that Huo Sixian appeared at the Training Ground...

...had deliberately dressed up today and made an appearance at the Training Ground.

The moment Xu Xueke appeared, she immediately attracted the gazes of many men.

Because now, in this Post-Apocalyptic World, supplies on the ship were only enough for some food, which would be gone once eaten.

Let alone things like clothes and jewelry, which were completely useless.

Therefore, most people on the ship dressed very simply, some even in tattered clothes.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they looked like beggars.

But only Xu Xueke was different. Because her father, Xu Yousheng, was a senior officer, she acted particularly wantonly on this Warship.

Even her attire was Without any concealment.

Now, as she made her entrance, the surrounding Volunteers couldn't help but show looks of envy in their eyes.

But more than that, they harbored a strong sense of possessiveness towards Xu Xueke.

The love for beauty is common to all, especially in such circumstances where people's desires were compressed to the extreme.

At this moment, Xu Xueke was like a beautiful white swan that had waded into a muddy pond.

Xu Xueke also felt the stares from those around her, but she had come here specifically to wait for Huo Sixian.

Xu Xueke turned to the soldiers around her who looked like Bodyguards and said, "I told you Brother Si Yan would come. Why hasn't he appeared even though I've been here for so long?"

The Bodyguard beside her remained silent, as if Besides protecting Xu Xueke， They won't talk about anything else..

Xu Xueke shot a disdainful look at the surrounding Bodyguards and found an empty spot to sit by herself.

But while sitting there, Xu Xueke actually spotted Ye Qingqing.

A malicious glint appeared in Xu Xueke's eyes. A woman's intuition told her...

...this matter was It's by no means simple. Even Huo Sixian coming to this Training Ground was because of Ye Qingqing.

Xu Xueke's meticulously manicured nails slightly dug into her palm. When she looked at Ye Qingqing, her eyes held hatred.

Regardless of whether the relationship between Ye Qingqing and Huo Sixian was as she imagined...

...at this moment, Xu Xueke didn't want Ye Qingqing to have an easy time.

"You, go call the person in charge of that team over here."

The Bodyguard standing near Xu Xueke glanced at her and walked over somewhat reluctantly.

Not long after, Golden Peace came over, bowing and scraping.

"Miss Xueke, what instructions do you have for coming to the Training Ground?"

Xu Xueke pointed with her long nail, "Over there. That Ye Qingqing, how did she get here?"

Golden Peace, limping and speaking with some difficulty, looked in the direction Xu Xueke pointed.

His mind raced a few circles. "Ah, that one. She's a Volunteer who passed the interview yesterday. Although she's a woman, her skills are quite good."

After hearing this, Xu Xueke's mind raced. An intuition from the depths of her woman's heart told her things weren't looking good.

"Tell me everything that happened yesterday, in detail. I heard Brother Si Yan gave you a beating."

Xu Xueke spoke bluntly, leaving Golden Peace not a shred of face.

Although Golden Peace felt dissatisfied in his heart, he didn't show it on his face.
