2699 They Want To See Us Make A Joke Out Of Ourselves



Ye Jian understood everything. However, they didn't say that last time. Last time, they were determined to win. Why did her company's decision suddenly change?

"Did something happen in the middle? Our goal now isn't to win but to learn…"

She couldn't think of any other reason.

Xia Jinyuan smiled. He didn't answer her question right away. Instead, he smiled at Li Jinnian and asked, "Did you see that? Your cousin is not easy to fool. She always thinks of the most important thing."

Li Jinnian raised his eyebrows, indicating that he already knew this.

"In the past, only one large special forces unit joined. For some reason, two military units suddenly joined this time. It's obviously against the rules to join at the last minute. There's no such custom."

"The 9th Brigade and the Headgear Commando team are very low-key. Although we don't know why they suddenly came this time, for the sake of caution, we chose to keep a lower profile."

Xia Jinyuan smiled slightly. There was a casual sharpness in his slow tone. "This is our country's first time participating in such a competition. The leaders think highly of it. They didn't say that we have to fight for first place. They just said that it's fine as long as we have a ranking. We shouldn't be too high-profile and let people give us unwanted attention. At the same time, we shouldn't be too low-key and let people look down on us. We just have to follow the rules.

"That's what we think too. The Xueyu unit is a special forces unit that can't be found anywhere. We're constantly doing things that put us on the edge of a blade. If we're too high-profile, we'll be targeted. It doesn't suit our country's low-key style.

"But we can't be too low-key. Many countries outside want to see us make a fool of ourselves, especially the countries in Asia…"

There was a short pause in his casual tone. When he opened his mouth again, his voice was tense and sharp. "They've been wanting to laugh at us for a long time. The military of a country that's not even as big as our country even went on television. They were just short of patting their chests and saying that they were 100% confident that they could teach our country a lesson."

That particular country wasn't on friendly terms with China, but they weren't hostile either. However, the news in that country was broadcasting how dirty, messy, and poor China's cities were every day.

They reported that besides the coastal cities and the capital city, the other cities were all very poor. How poor were they? They were so poor that it was a luxury for the company to eat an apple!

"While we're studying, we just need to be a little ruthless occasionally. Rankings, wins, and losses don't matter. We just need to study hard and improve every day."

Ye Jian was enlightened.

Initially, they were going to fight for their reputation. They just needed to know their limits and not be too high-profile. They didn't want to lose so badly that people would look down on them. Their name couldn't be ranked too high and they couldn't be ranked at the bottom either. They just needed to intimidate the surrounding countries in Asia.

But now, they couldn't. With the addition of the 9th Brigade and the Headgear Commando team, the leaders became more cautious.

This was their country's first time participating in the competition. Those two countries, which had always kept a low profile and didn't care about participating in the competition, suddenly made a last-minute decision… They cut the queue and participated. The leaders didn't have time to consider it carefully. At the same time, they had to guess what the other party wanted.

Previously when China didn't join, they didn't join either. Now that China joined the competition, two of them joined too.

They didn't know if there was a deeper meaning behind it, but there was nothing wrong with handling it carefully.

"After the big celebration, our country has continually been targeted. That's why we need to be more cautious," Li Jinnian added. This allowed Ye Jian to understand the reason for the change in decision-making.
