Second Chances

The first lesson was about obstacle courses. There were a total of eight sets of obstacles throughout a quarter mile.

The instructor led the class to the first obstacle.

Emma looked at these steeds with her usual expression. However, there was a strong coldness brewing in her eyes!

Back then, Dummy had a heart attack while participating in the 400-meter steeplechase and died suddenly! These were the things that had cost Dummy lives…

Emma noticed the short wooden stakes on the lawn. The gap between each one was narrow, only allowing one foot to pass through. Despite the small distance between them, people with short legs might struggle to jump to the next wooden stake and risk falling.

“It’s a straddle, when running and jumping, use your eyes to gauge the distance, engage your cerebellum to control your legs accurately, and swiftly pass…” The instructor demonstrated as he spoke.

He landed on his toes with the speed of the wind, earning admiration from everyone.

Then he asked, “Does anyone want to try?”

The students raised their hands.

The first one was a boy over 6 feet tall.

With his natural advantage, he jumped several times in a row. However, when it came to the last one, he lost his balance and fell off the stake.

The instructor emphasized, “Quality is just as important as speed!” in a stern voice, he continued, “You are now on the training ground; falling down could be dangerous. What about crossing a river or being on fire? Falling could be fatal! Remember, haste makes waste!”

The boy gritted his teeth. Although it was only the first stage, it was already not easy.

Everyone secretly made up their minds to train well in the future.

“Alright, line up next. One by one!”

The girls at the front of the line were the first to get on the stake. Because it was just ordinary training, the boys and girls trained together.

Girls were smaller than boys, so they naturally did not have the advantage.

Some girls had good physical fitness, but no professional training, therefore it was hard to keep their balance. They either fell or moved slowly.

The instructor said, “Too slow. The enemy could kill you easily! Hurry up!”

The girl panicked and lost her balance.

Next up was Emma. She took a deep breath, tightened her abdomen, and focused her core strength. Her body felt. light as a swallow as she effortlessly crossed several hurdles.

The instructor immediately applauded. “Good jobl Did everyone see that? Emma did it very well.”

“You need to engage your core muscles to strengthen your legs! Be bold and cautious when navigating the stakes. Keep going, practice step by step!!”

While they were training, a group of people walked across the field. Several instructors in camouflage uniforms were gathered around a man in a neat uniform,

The man was muscular and attractive with tanned, rugged skin. His intense gaze swept the field as if searching for

someone.

“Captain Rivera, are you looking for someone?”

Richard Rivera was a respected soldier in a high-ranking position, a renowned hero of the battlefield!

He rushed to visit Emma as soon as he heard she had arrived.

“Where’s Class One?” Richard asked.

“Over there! Right in the middle of the rostrum!” the instructor said.

Richard had never met Emma in person, but he had secretly viewed her photos many times. With his sharp eyesight, he quickly spotted the girl in the line, holding her head high.

He saw everyone wobble through the obstacles. Only Emma was effortless! Richard was extremely proud. He wished he could acknowledge Emma on the spot!

However, Emma had just entered the school. He could not expose his relationship with her so quickly. Otherwise, people might be envious of her.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Captain Rivera, what do you think of the new students?” an instructor asked.

“Good, very good!” Richard answered.

Richard’s confirm was a relief to the entire Charon Military School.The instructors were glad that their commander

was pleased.

As evening approached, dusk settled on the training ground.

At the end of their training, everyone was soaked in sweat and had sore legs.

Other than wooden stakes, there was also high-altitude psychological training and dizziness resistance training… They were all challenging the limits of the human body!

It was no surprise that people said students entering Charon Military School were halfway to hell! However, graduating from Charon Military School felt like reaching heaven!

Finally, after a month of training, everyone could pass the wooden stake skillfully.

In addition to straddling the stakes, they also encountered seven other obstacles: trenches, low walls, high-plank jump platforms, ladders, wooden bridges, high walls, and low pile nets.

At the end of the first month, they had a test. The monthly test was not too stressful for Emma, as it was easy for her to achieve a good ranking.

Yet she missed Liam a lot. She could only contact him on her phone during this time. After the first monthly exam, she could return to Icovine Estate. She wanted to surprise him.

The next day, various obstacles had been set up in the field early in the morning. Stopwatches were ready, whistle guns were prepared, and everyone was in position.

All students were excited to try it out and had already gathered at the venue by five in the morning!

Everyone was excited except for Emma, whose face was a bit pale. In her past life, Dummy had died in the 400m steeplechase race.

Despite trying to push aside distracting thoughts and focus on the competition, every time she tried to concentrate, Dummy’s cold corpse would unexpectedly flash before her eyes!

No one noticed that Emma was not feeling well.

“Now, you can navigate obstacles accurately, but today’s monthly exam will focus on speed!” the instructor announced, looking at each student. “This assessment is crucial. The aim is to break a new record!”

“Yes!” the students answered, taking the first exam very seriously.

Boys and girls were split into two groups. Before the grouping, Bob Ball stood in front of Emma, his gentle and refined demeanor unchanged,

As dawn broke, the still and melancholy indigo sky matched his temperament. However, he smiled warmly,

resembling the rising morning light on the h**n.

“Emma, good luck with today’s exam,” Bob said.

Emma replied, “Thank you. Good luck.”

Suddenly, a boy with two big muscles on his sleeves jumped out from behind Bob.

“Good luck with your exam, Emma! If you come in first place, you treat me. If not, I’ll treat you!”

Emma couldn’t help but roll her eyes inwardly. “Stop dreaming! I’m going to win first place, but I won’t eat with you.”

Erza stomped his feet in anger. “If you don’t agree to eat with me, you won’t get first place!”

Emma raised her eyebrows. “We will see!”

Erza warned, “Stay alert. Riley Lewis from Class Two set a record of 1 minute and 39 seconds yesterday, just 2 seconds shy of your best time! Be cautious or she might beat you!”

Emma knew Riley, whose physical strength was not inferior to hers.

Most importantly, Riley worked extremely hard. She practiced the 400m obstacle course by running dozens of laps every day. Her progress was significant. Riley was Emma’s main competitor.

Erza asked, “What are you thinking about? Just accept my invitation. Hahaha!”

Hearing that, Emma’s attitude became even colder. She snorted and turned around to leave!

Erza was dumbfounded. “Hey! Are you mad?”

Bob looked at him with pity. “She hates it when people say that she will lose!”
