Chapter 767
Changing only for her (Sophie and Tristan)
This was not the first time that Tristan and Sophie visited Horington. They were here before too.
However, they both came for different reasons previously. And now, Sophie did not know why Tristan
had brought her here.
When Tristan brought Sophie to the training campâs headquarters, she was slightly surprised.
âHave you ever been to this training camp before?â In Horington, there was a training camp run by a
former member of the special forces. Anyone who comes out of this training camp will be a remarkable
person.
Yet, the man did not expect her to have attended this training camp. Even money could not get one into
this highly exclusive camp.
To enter this special training camp, one had to pass a series of testsâonly those qualified would be
admitted.
In truth, the days spent in the training camp were very tough.
Despite the fact that it was extremely challenging, those who were admitted could only grit their teeth
and endure the grueling training. Only then, theyâd be able to finish the process.
Sophie joined the special training camp by chance.
âYeah, I have been here before!â she replied. Tristan drove toward the training camp. Under normal
circumstances, their car would not be allowed in. However, after seeing the man behind the wheels, the
soldier saluted and let them through immediately.
It had not been a long time since Sophie visited the training camp since she left. However, she was not
surprised by the current situation. After all, Tristan was a man with many secrets!
âAfter the camp commander found out I was here, he insisted that I visit him. He said there were new
research findings and wanted to show them to me. You donât mind, do you?â he explained.
Sophie shook her head.
In the past, when she trained at the training camp, she felt particularly miserable. At one point, she
really thought she would die there.
But now that she had returned, she felt rather warm and homey.
She wouldnât be who she was if she hadnât spent nearly a year in this place.
Nor would she have met Tristanâthe most important man in her life.
Along the way, there were many people training intensely. A smile appeared on Sophieâs lips when she
saw them being tortured by instructors.
âYou should go and look for the camp commander! Iâll hang around here,â Sophie said when she saw a
familiar face.
âOkay! Remember to find me when youâre ready.â Tristan had to look for the camp commander, who
had something important to share.
âDonât worry. I know where you are. Iâll find you later,â the woman assured. She knew everything in the
camp like the back of her hand after spending a year there.
âOkay!â Tristan knew she had been at the camp before, so he wasnât surprised by her answer. After all,
she was not an ordinary person, to begin with!
Sophie got off the vehicle and walked straight toward the captain, who was training the team.
âHonestly, I know you guys are weak, but I never thought you would be this weak!â The captain shouted
at the students in the mud, âI know what you guys are thinking, donât think that just because youâre in,
you can graduate easily. Let me tell you, if you canât pass the final assessment, I wonât let you
graduate. You guys are too polite to them. Start practicing!â
As soon as the captain finished speaking, the students who were trying to crawl out of the mud pit were
once again washed down with water by the people standing above. It was a complete rush down, as
the water pipe used was clearly a fire hose and the students were completely powerless against such a
strong impact.
âLooks like youâre still the same.â Sophie smiled as she saw the captainâs fierce attitude.
The middle-aged man heard the familiar voice and turned around, only to see a face that was rather
unforgettable.
âIs that you, Sophie?â he exclaimed. Back in the days at the training camp, Sophie was a legendary
figure.
While she started out as a feeble young girl, she eventually graduated with the highest grade. In fact,
the record she set was still not broken to date!
She was a girl who left her mark on the training campâs history.
âYeah, I came back to have a look!â Sophie replied.
âI heard youâre studying at the University of Medicine at Jipsdale. I think someone like you should just
join the army. Whatâs the point of studying?â the captain said in dissatisfaction.
The woman was the most gifted individual he had ever trained.
He felt proud to have made her outstanding.
âDo you have time to chat?â Sophie knew he was busy, but it was a rare opportunity to meet him.
âOf course!â The captain instructed the assistant coach to continue the training. âTrain them hard, donât
spare them. If you go easy on them now, youâre just spoiling them.â
At this point, the students in the mud pit really hated the captain.
Is he insane? How could there be such a cruel person? Heâs forcing us to soak in the mud pit in such
cold weather. Life here is really unbearable.
The captain and Sophie then left together.
âCaptain, youâre still the same as before!â she remarked.
âWell, didnât you hate me back then?â He was indeed a ruthless trainer. As a man with real battle
experiences, he knew how cruel war could be. On the battlefield, no one would show any mercy. After
all, it was a matter of life and death!
âTo be honest, I did hate you at that time. I wished I could kill you!â The captain was known to be a
tough trainer who showed no mercy and was very rough with his words.
Hence, there were many people who disliked him.
âI truly think that itâs a pity that you didnât join the army. With your talent, you would definitely have a
bright future if you joined the army,â he said.
âCaptain, Iâm quite satisfied with my current life. If the country needs me, I will definitely not hesitate to
serve.âThe truth was Sophie was a preacher of
âNo War, Just Peace.â
After entering the captainâs office, he showed her the training program.
âTake a look and see if thereâs anything to improve on?â Although these students had been specially
handpicked for the program, only twenty percent of them could successfully graduate.
Hence, their training and assessment had to be very strict.
Sophie examined the program intently and gave constructive suggestions.
The captain was very satisfied with her ideas.
He said with a tinge of regret, âAlthough you didnât follow my plan, your abilities are undoubtedly top-
notch. You would have been the uncrowned champion! Itâs so rare of you to come back for a visit, so
why donât we have dinner together tonight?â The captain really liked Sophie and had always treated her
as his little sister.
âPerhaps another day. I need to return to Jipsdale today,â she replied apologetically.
âWhat brings you to Horington? If thereâs anything you need my help with, donât hesitate to ask. You
donât have to feel bad.â The captain was actually very generous and always willing to help whenever he
could.
