Training at West Hill was much harder than this. The students exchanged glances, some actually beginning to suspect they weren’t being taken seriously.
“No holding back!” Lan Jue’s harsh voice sent a shiver down their spine. They snapped to attention, with the stark reminder that there was no relaxing when the Demon Drillmaster was watching.
Gao Lei followed on the golden masked man’s heels. “Go!”
Lan Jue did not remain to observe like the First Pilot. Instead, he lead the group, with his assistants fanning out behind.

Gao Lei languidly swung to meet the gaze of a soldier standing nearby. “Double the gravity,” he ordered.
“Sir!” The soldier snapped to attention before darting off to do so.
