Michael lunged for a hug.
Ethan pushed him off quickly, straightening his clothes with a disgusted look, “Don’t touch me. I’m a
man with a girlfriend now. I need to stay pure, you understand?”

“Where are you off to?” Ethan asked with a smirk as Michael turned to leave.
Without looking back, Michael quipped, “I’m joining a monastery.”
“With that worldly look, a convent would close its doors for three days just to purify the air after you
pass by.”
“Thud-”
Evel blinked, watching Michael copse to the ground.
She crouched beside him, checked for breath, then turned to report,
President Grant, he’s fainted.”
Ethan was already on the phone with William, “Prepare a nice plot ofnd; I need to bury Michael.”
The supposedly unconscious Michael bounced up immediately,” Ethan, I’m going to kill you!”
At the main base.
At 8:05, the assembly waspleted. The pilots were arranged by height, with the female pilots all
in the front row.
“That way, squeeze in,” the woman to the left nudged Madison with

her elbow.
Madison nced back, her gaze swiftly passing over the badge pinned to the left side of the
woman’s chest.
A pilot from Song Airlines, Zuo Yulei
The woman in the ID photo sported short hair, but now it had grown past her shoulders, tied in a
simple low ponytail. Her eyes were unapproachable, no matter the angle.
This was one of the two female pilots Ethan had warned her about yesterday.
Among the 23 pilots, there were five women. Madison was taller than most, with only one woman
standing to her right outshining her in height.
Upon the nudge, Madison said nothing, simply shifting slightly to the
right.
The chief trainer of the group was an official from the Civil Aviation Authority, known as Old Gao.
True to his name, Old Gao was tall,parable to Ethan, standing a 1.88 meters, and even taller in
boots
In his forties, his presence was all authority as he flipped through the pilots’ files, beginning to break
them into groups.
The twenty would be divided into three groups with an 8-8-4 ratio.
When Madison was assigned to the quartet, Zuo Yulei immediately protested, “Why?”

Her objection hushed the entire line.
Madison was unfamiliar with the implications of the group sizes in the performancepetition.

All eyes turned to Zuo Yulei, who clearly had a fiery temperament.
Old Gao looked over, “It’s based on your flight records and skills. This is training; adjustments can
be made if necessary.”
“Why does a rookie deserve to be in the smaller group?” Zuo Yulei challenged boldly.
It was then that Old Song, standing behind, softly exined the difference between therger and
smaller groups to Madison.
Therger group was responsible for steady flying, while most of the advanced maneuvers were
executed by the smaller team.
Thus, in every exhibition, the most memorable performances came from the smaller groups of each
team.
Who wouldn’t want to shine?
Of course, Zuo Yulei was dissatisfied.
She had fought through numerous challenges to be selected from Song Airlines, only to have a
neer snatch a coveted spot she felt was hers by right.
Then, anguid female voice rose from the ranks, “Both from Mukino Airlines, why are there two of
you in the smaller group? Even the Authority seems biased.”
Thisment stirred discontent among the pilots from the other two
airlines.
Of the four in the smaller group, Mukino Airlines had three spots: Madison, Old Song, and Charlie.
Old Gaoughed, “So what are you proposing?”
“Apetition,” Zuo Yulei dered on the spot. “We respect the old military pilot. But for the other
two female pilots, they need to prove

their skills, earn our respect, and vacate their spots. That’s only fair.”
Old Gao sighed, “And what would you like topete in?”
Zuo Yulei smiled, “A simted stall.
At her words, the crowd gasped in unison.
