Chapter 168
At this moment, in the hall, gathered around a hundred of the most elite warriors.
Their faces were filled with excitement because they had just received news that the first captain of
Team 793 would select new members from among them to undertake a critical mission.
These individuals had all been carefully selected through multiple rounds of screening as the top-notch
warriors, representing the pinnacle of Tram
793’sbat power.
However, at this moment, these soldier-kings had all restrained their aggressive aura.
Like young rookies, they anxiously looked toward the entrance.
As each of them was growing impatient, a slender figure walked in.
However, when everyone saw his appearance clearly, disappointment was written all over their faces.
That was because he was their leader in Team 793 and the person they disliked the most.
“I know you all don’t like this old face of mine, but calm down. I’vee here to give you an opening
statement. The person you’ve been waiting for has arrived,” the leader acknowledged with self-
awareness.
After a brief introduction, he looked toward the door.
“Pleasee in, both of you.”
The people in the hall held their breath.
In the next moment, a slender figure walked in through the door.
The expressions on everyone’s faces froze for a moment.
Huh?
What was going on?
Had they not reached the main topic yet?
Was this another host?
However, this incredibly young-looking woman walked directly onto the stage.
After scanning the crowd, she spoke coldly, “This mission is perilous, and I cannot guarantee that each
of you will return safely.”
“Therefore, if anyone among you has concerns, you can leave now. I assure you that Team 793 will not
be biased towards those who choose to leave.”
Upon hearing Marina’s words, the people below instantly expressed their dissatisfaction.
“What are you saying? Are you insulting us?”
“From the moment we set foot in the military camp, we have already entrusted our lives to the country.”
“As members of Team 793, this is the spirit of Team 793. Team 793 does not have cowards!”
“Good!” Upon hearing these words from the crowd, Marina nodded with satisfaction.
Then she continued, “Those who are the only sons in their families, stand up!”
Upon hearing Marina’s words, the people below hesitated.
“What are you all still standing there for? Those who are the only sons in their families, stand up!” the
apanying leader quickly spoke up.
At this point, people finally started to react.
Intermittently, about twenty or so individuals stood up.
Marina squinted her eyes and scanned the rest of the seated individuals.
Some people’s expressions flickered, torn between emotions.
“Your files are with the army headquarters. There’s no need to lie about such trivial matters. I can easily
find out the truth,” she added.
“Now, I won’t hold it against you if you stand up voluntarily. But if I find outter, you will be immediately
expelled from Team 793,” Marina dered.
t
Upon hearing her words, the ones who were hesitant and torn stood up one after another.
Marina quickly nced around and saw that the number had already exceeded thirty.
“If you have elderly family members over seventy years old or children under ten years old, stand up,”
Marina spoke again.
This time, even more people stood up.
Only around twenty individuals remained seated..
“Alright, all of you who stood up, leave. None of you qualify,” Marina said in a deep voice..
“What criteria are you using to judge us? Why are we considered unqualified?!”
“Yeah, I was the champion in this year’s boxing match. On what basis do you say I’m unqualified?!”
“Just like that, without even a basic assessment, you casually asked a few questions and deemed us
unqualified. Who do you think you are? Get out of here and bring the first captain of Team 793. We
don’t want to talk to a woman!”
The people who stood up were emotional upon hearing Marina’s words.
Even the apanying leader looked puzzled as he nced over.
“I know many of you are talented, but as I just said, this mission differs from before. I know each and
every one of you is not afraid of life and death,”
Marina continued.
“But what about your parents? Your spouses and children? Are they also fearless?”
If you have siblings to support your family, it’s fine. But if you are the only son with elders and young
ones at home, if something happens to you, and it’s overseas, your loved ones won’t even be able to
receive your body.”
“At that time, who willfort your family?”
“A hero is not only for the people but also needs to consider their own family because they are also part
of the people,” Marina’s voice was firm and
resolute.
The expressions of the people below suddenly became moreplicated.
The look in the eyes of the apanying leader towards Marina also changed somewhat.
It should be noted that their consistent belief had always been to serve the people, with their interests
being paramount.
They were willing to sacrifice everything for the sake of the people..
However, upon reflection, they were all in their early twenties.
They were also sons, fathers, and husbands.
Many heroes kept their identities and names confidential, even in death.
With this in mind, Marina’s words genuinely took into ount the interests of these soldiers as well.
“Captain Bailey is right. All of you who stood up, please leave. We understand your principles and your
determination to sacrifice for the country, but it’s important to consider your own families as well,” the

apanying leader said.
The apanying leader also spoke up.
The group of people who stood up hadplicated expressions on their faces.
At that moment, the man who imed to be the champion of the boxing match spoke again.
“My parents are retired soldiers who paved the way for me when I joined the military. They have long
been prepared for me to sacrifice myself for the country. I hereby apply to participate in this mission
again and request approval from the organization!”
The man saluted the apanying leader in a standard military manner.
“This is Ryan Roberts. His abilities are outstanding in Team 793, and what he said is true. He was
indeed born into a military family. When the top military team mentioned selecting a few individuals, he
was the first person I thought of,” the apanying leader quietly exined to Marina
Marina directed her gaze towards Ryan.
After a moment of silence, she nodded her head.
“Then you can stay,” she said.
“Thank you, organization!” Ryan’s face lit up with joy.
As the others saw that Ryan was allowed to stay, they began preparing to speak up.
However, before they could say anything, Marina interrupted them.
“Are all of you also champions in the boxing match?” she asked.
