Rebirth: General, Don't Mess Around!

”If Ye Jian can’t be the representative, I don’t know who else is qualified.” As the dean, he had to support the outstanding students in his school.

She was the top of the professional class and top of the comprehensive physical fitness test. She was not an ordinary outstanding student. She was the most outstanding student!

If she couldn’t represent the National Science University to participate in the overseas competition, what reason could justify it?

The leader of another department had their reasons too. Hearing that, he said, ”We all know Ye Jian’s results and ranking. It’s not that we’re denying her ability. It’s just that she’s a second-year student now. She hasn’t even come into contact with conventional weapons. We can’t just make our decision based on her results.

She still needs to be proficient in using weapons.”

”I don’t agree. This time, the ones participating are students from military schools. They’re all students. How many conventional weapons have they gotten their hands on? They’re not soldiers from a first-tier military unit! I think Ye Jian can participate.

No one is more qualified than her.”

”I don’t think so. Since it’s said that the competition will test use of conventional weapons, the students have to know about them first. Ye Jian is outstanding in all aspects. Her biggest weakness now is that she has never touched any conventional weapons!”

”Have all the foreign military school students touched all the conventional weapons? Have they touched all the selected weapons?”

”They haven’t come into contact with all of them, but one thing is certain. They have come into contact with more conventional weapons than Ye Jian. Also, they have the experience of being sent to a grassroots company. They all had more chances to come into contact with conventional weapons than Ye Jian. I object to this.”

”I agree. I object too.”

”I don’t agree. This is not a reason to eliminate Ye Jian.”

”Don’t forget that we’ve held many physical fitness competitions in the past few days, and Ye Jian participated in all of them! The reason why you object is only one-sided. You didn’t consider the overall situation. I agree with Ye Jian’s selection.”

”Similarly, you only see that Ye Jian’s physical fitness is outstanding and ignore her understanding and operation of conventional weapons. The reason you support her selection is only one-sided and doesn’t consider the overall situation. My opinion remains unchanged. I don’t support Ye Jian’s selection.”

…

It was a new round of argument. One side objected, while the other side agreed. The two sides argued. It was hard to tell who was better, and there was no way to win.

The principal didn’t speak. Instead, he looked at the head of education who didn’t speak. He went to Jin City to participate in the exchange some time ago. Seeing that he was deep in thought, he turned his body slightly and asked the head of education, ”You haven’t spoken. What thoughts do you have?”

The head of education was not unfamiliar with Ye Jian. He looked up from Ye Jian’s past results and pondered for a moment. He said, ”I’m wondering if Ye Jian is more than she seems. I feel that this student is not simple.”

”Principal, you should know better. Also, the dean insists that Ye Jian will definitely be able to perform well if she’s sent for the competition. Why do I feel that the dean also thinks that Ye Jian is different?”

As a principal, he naturally knew a little. However, he didn’t know much. He knew that Ye Jian didn’t return to school a few times because the military had other arrangements. As for what the arrangements were, he wasn’t sure.

Like him, the dean didn’t know much.

The principal nodded slightly. ”Yes, she’s indeed a little different. It’s all direct orders from the military. Even I don’t have the right to know much.”
