Assessment? Assessment!

Jiang Yan Hai was aware of these rumors. Although the logistics farm was in a remote part of the regiment, it wasn't completely isolated. Besides the ingredients they purchased, the mess halls of various detachments also came here to pick up some of their produce.

Naturally, they could hear the rumors from the farm. Jiang Yan Hai knew about them too, but he just smiled. With a goal in mind, he felt he could take on anything, even electricity poles!

What were rumors to him?! Moreover, as soon as he thought about it, he realized this was definitely a test from Fan Tian Lei.

Did these rumors intend to trouble him? Impossible. The army respected strength. As long as he was strong enough, any rumors would disappear on their own.

He was determined to get the Red Star Engine's mission reward!

He had also figured out that the Red Star Engine wouldn't communicate with him at the moment. As for that permission slot, he wondered what would happen if he upgraded his permissions to the highest level. Would there be a way to return to reality!

So, he didn't care about these rumors at all. Besides, he had a trump card. Jiang Yan Hai had completed over 100% of his training tasks this week. Not only had his physical fitness improved, but he had also obtained a total of seven Special Forces Experience Cards.

If he couldn't pass the assessments with these experience cards, then this wouldn't be an ordinary field unit, but a special operations brigade!

"Here they come, here they come." As the soldiers from the four waiting companies stirred, the car carrying Gong Jian and Jiang Yan Hai arrived.

After getting out of the car, Jiang Yan Hai jogged directly to the front of the soldiers from all four companies, stood at attention, and held his position steadily. The sounds of discussion from behind him reached his ears.

"Is this the pig farm guy?"

"Someone from the pig farm wants to join the Sharpshooter Fourth Company now?"

"I heard he's from Peking University, so of course, he has the right to use connections. Can we high school graduates compare ourselves to those top students?"

"Quiet!" Gong Jian walked to the very front and spoke loudly.

Everyone immediately fell silent. Although Jiang Yan Hai's expression was blank, he felt like laughing inside. The other company commanders hadn't stopped them beforehand; they only intervened after he heard the comments. If it were someone else, this would have been quite humiliating.

"Jiang Yan Hai!" After everyone quieted down, Gong Jian turned directly to Jiang Yan Hai and shouted.

"Here!"

"You want to join our Sharpshooter Fourth Company. Although your academic background and other factors have been considered and approved, you must pass the basic military fitness assessment to join our Sharpshooter Fourth Company! Therefore, you must pass today's assessment. Otherwise, even if it means disobeying orders, I will go to the regiment commander and refuse your entry into our company! Because I can't afford to be embarrassed. Do you understand?" Gong Jian shouted.

"Understood!"

"Very good. Additionally, there are 10 soldiers who have the opportunity to rejoin the Sharpshooter Fourth Company because of you. They are unconvinced and want to participate in the assessment with you. I don't need you to outperform everyone; as long as you can finish in the top five, I'll consider you to have passed the assessment," Gong Jian said.

"Yes!" Jiang Yan Hai replied without further comment.

"Alright, those participating in the assessment, step forward!" Gong Jian announced loudly to the other companies.

Soon, 10 soldiers ran out from the crowd and stood in a neat line with Jiang Yan Hai.

"Now, I will announce the first item of the assessment. As soldiers, firearms are your most trusted companions. The first assessment item is weapon disassembly and assembly," Gong Jian declared loudly.

Everyone immediately moved in unison to the pre-prepared area. They all faced the other soldiers, ensuring that every soldier could see clearly.

Jiang Yan Hai also took his position and took a deep breath. This item was not his strongest suit. Although he had learned weapon disassembly and assembly with Squad Leader Liu and the others, Jiang Yan Hai's proficiency was only about the same as Squad Leader Liu's.

However, Squad Leader Liu might not be stronger than these soldiers. He hadn't expected that he would need to use a Special Forces Experience Card for the first assessment.

But Jiang Yan Hai was not one to hesitate. He decisively used the Special Forces Experience Card in his mind.

As Jiang Yan Hai used the Special Forces Experience Card, a massive stream of information surged into his mind. Instantly, Jiang Yan Hai felt as if he had transformed into a special forces soldier with years of experience.

This feeling... it was truly magical.

Jiang Yan Hai marveled at it. It was as if, in an instant, he had become a true special forces soldier from the inside out, possessing all the combat skills and even the experience of a special forces soldier.

The firearm in his hand instantly felt incredibly familiar, as if it were an extension of his own body.

"Everyone!" Gong Jian shouted. Everyone immediately snapped to attention, including the observing soldiers. Jiang Yan Hai also focused his attention and took a deep breath. Unbeknownst to himself, Jiang Yan Hai at this moment seemed to have transformed into a true special forces warrior who had experienced life and death!

"Ready! Go!" Gong Jian took a deep breath and decisively announced.

With a "swish," everyone almost simultaneously picked up their rifles from the ground in front of them.

"Holy crap! What did I just see!"

"Wow!"

"Damn!" The soldiers watching from the side widened their eyes and involuntarily exclaimed.

Even the company commanders, and Gong Jian and Old Hei, who were watching up close, widened their eyes in shock!

Because the moment he gave the command to start, the instant Jiang Yan Hai picked up the firearm, his hands became incredibly nimble.

What was most terrifying was that, somehow, with just a few flickers of his hands over the rifle, the entire rifle instantly turned into a pile of parts.

Truly, it felt as if it had become a pile of parts in that instant. By the time he finished disassembling, the other soldiers had only managed to disassemble their third part.

Routine maintenance disassembly involved incomplete breakdown, with only a dozen or so parts. But Jiang Yan Hai had already completed the full disassembly while others were still working on three or four parts.

He neatly arranged all the parts on the table in front of him, while others had only completed half of their disassembly.

Next, Jiang Yan Hai began the assembly. Compared to disassembly, assembly was not as fast, as it required a strict process.

But Jiang Yan Hai's speed was evident; he was too proficient, so proficient it was terrifying. It was as if he were a veteran soldier with over a decade of experience, not a recruit who had only completed basic training for just over a month.

"Click!" With the final magazine inserted, Jiang Yan Hai put down the rifle and loudly declared, "Report! Completed!"

The moment Jiang Yan Hai spoke, the actions of the other participating soldiers falter simultaneously. Although they quickly resumed their assembly, no one was paying attention anymore. At this moment, everyone who witnessed this scene had only one thought: This is too damn fast!
