72: Chapter 72: Su Han: Actually, I'm a time traveler!

"After the preliminary screening, there are over a hundred people left." Zhou Mo handed Su Han a list. "The selection assessment begins tomorrow."

"Great-grandfather!" Xiao Budian suddenly pointed at the Climbing Tower in the distance. "What is that tall thing?"

"That's for building climbing training." Su Han squatted down. "Want to go take a look?"

"I do!"

Su Han picked up Xiao Budian and said to Zhou Mo, "Let's go, take her to experience it."

In front of the Climbing Tower, Xiao Budian looked up at the ten-story building, her small mouth forming an 'O' shape.

"Are you scared?" Su Han asked.

Xiao Budian shook her head, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "Great-grandfather, can I climb it?"

"Watch the uncles climb first today." Su Han placed her in a safe area. "When Xiao Budian grows up a bit more, Great-grandfather will teach you personally."

Zhou Mo warmed up his limbs and walked to the front of the building. "Watch me!"

He scaled the wall as agilely as an ape, using both hands and feet. In less than a minute, he reached the roof, drawing a cheer from Xiao Budian.

Da Xiong was not to be outdone. Despite his burly physique, his movements were not slow at all as he followed closely behind to complete the climb.

"So amazing!" Xiao Budian clapped her small hands and turned to look at Su Han expectantly. "Great-grandfather, you try too!"

Su Han smiled slightly and took off his jacket. "Alright, watch Great-grandfather."

Without using any safety measures, he took a direct running start, leaped over three meters high, grabbed the second-floor window sill, and then climbed upward at an astonishing speed.

His movements were fluid, as if gravity had no effect on him. He reached the roof in less than forty seconds, nearly twice as fast as Zhou Mo.

"Wow!!!" Xiao Budian hopped and skipped below. "Great-grandfather is the best!"

Zhou Mo and the others looked at each other, seeing the same shock in each other's eyes—is this guy even human?

Evening, Base Canteen.

Xiao Budian sat on Su Han's lap, eating a specially prepared small portion of food with great relish.

The surrounding soldiers cast curious glances from time to time, but due to discipline, no one dared to come over and chat.

Wang Yuanchao walked over with his tray and sat across from Su Han. "How is it? Getting used to things?"

"It's pretty good." Su Han wiped a grain of rice from the corner of Xiao Budian's mouth. "The conditions are better than I imagined."

Wang Yuanchao lowered his voice. "Selection starts tomorrow. How do you plan to screen them?"

Su Han smiled. "How to select? Don't you veteran Soldier Kings of Falcon know better than I do?"

Wang Yuanchao curled his lip. "If we knew better than you, the gap in strength wouldn't be this huge."

"Seriously, I'm very curious right now. How did you train to get this level of combat power? Your time in service is only 10 months up to now! I won't mention combat, since the Su Family has a martial arts foundation, but what about marksmanship and other subjects?"

Zhou Mo and the others nodded one after another, all staring at Su Han with extremely curious expressions, awaiting his answer.

Su Han suddenly smiled and beckoned them to come closer.

Everyone leaned in expectantly, and Xiao Budian also leaned in with a confused look.

Su Han even looked around cautiously, and after ensuring no one was eavesdropping, he said, "I'll tell you a secret of mine that nobody knows!"

"You must, must keep it a secret for me! You can't tell anyone, understand?"

Hearing this, everyone became even more expectant and curious, quickly nodding their promise.

Xiao Budian: "Great-grandfather, I can't know either?"

Su Han smiled and pinched her nose. "You'll know in a moment."

"Su Han, just say it! Damn! The suspense is killing me!"

Da Xiong urged quickly.

Everyone held their breath, staring at Su Han without blinking.

Su Han lowered his voice mysteriously: "Actually... I'm a Transmigrator."

"A Transmigrator?" Zhou Mo was stunned.

"Yes." Su Han had a serious face. "In my past life, I was a top-tier special operations Soldier King. I died during a mission, and my soul transmigrated into the body of an 18-year-old recruit in this parallel world."

"That's why my shooting, combat, and tactical abilities are so strong, because these are things I practiced for decades in my previous life."

"I just need to spend a little more time getting familiar with this body."

The dining table went silent instantly.

Da Xiong's chopsticks fell to the ground with a 'clatter'.

Hou Zi's mouth hung open, his jaw nearly dislocated.

Shan Mao rubbed his ears, suspecting he had misheard.

Wang Yuanchao's expression froze on his face.

Xiao Budian tilted her head. "Great-grandfather, what's a Transmigrator?"

Just as Su Han was about to answer, Zhou Mo suddenly burst out laughing.

"Hahaha!" Zhou Mo slapped the table and laughed. "Su Han, your storytelling skills are quite something!"

Da Xiong also snapped out of it, picked up his chopsticks, and pointed at Su Han. "You kid, you're playing us!"

"Exactly!" Hou Zi rolled his eyes. "A Transmigrator? Why don't you say you're an alien?"

Shan Mao shook his head and sighed. "Su Han, if you don't want to say it, then forget it. There's no need to make up such nonsense."

Wang Yuanchao was even more speechless. "You brat, you even play an old man like me."

Su Han shrugged helplessly. "See, I tell the truth and you don't believe it instead."

"Give it a rest!" Zhou Mo laughed and scolded, "If you're a Transmigrator, then I'm the reincarnation of Qin Shi Huang!"

"Yeah!" Da Xiong chimed in. "A Soldier King in a past life? Why don't you say you're Sun Wukong descended to earth?"

Xiao Budian suddenly raised her small hand. "I know Sun Wukong! He can do the Seventy-Two Transformations!"

"Right!" Hou Zi pinched Xiao Budian's cheek. "Your Great-grandfather can boast even more than Sun Wukong!"

Everyone roared with laughter.

Su Han wasn't annoyed either, just smiling meaningfully. "Believe it or not."

"Anyway, I've told you the reason why I'm so strong. It's your business if you don't believe it, but you're not allowed to keep asking me about it in the future."

"Tsk~" Everyone booed him in unison.

"Alright, stop talking nonsense."

Wang Yuanchao said to Su Han, "Tell us specifically how you're going to do this."

Su Han spread his hands. "To be honest, I don't have a concrete plan right now."

"What to do will have to wait until I see those female soldiers tomorrow."

"Otherwise, you tell me, how do you train female soldiers?"

Everyone looked at each other.

This was something they truly couldn't answer.

Although they had been instructors and selected many Special Forces Soldiers before...

...those were all male soldiers.

Female soldiers were a first.

Where would they get the experience?

"Exactly."

Su Han said, "We have to interact with these female soldiers first to see what the situation is before we can make a plan, right?"

Wang Yuanchao nodded in agreement. "What you say makes sense."

"Anyway, you're the Chief Instructor. You handle it as you see fit."

"Zhou Mo and the others will assist you."
