Joy and sorrow are not shared by all. While the Yulin Army was lost in unprecedented revelry, someone posted the merit point distribution to the freshman prodigies' group chat, immediately sparking a chorus of sour grapes.
Then again, no one was foolish enough to complain about Yu Fei or Li Jueyin. After being eliminated, they had watched Yu Fei's performance on the battlefield and learned from chatting with the eliminated second-year students that he was a special case, the likes of which hadn't been seen in at least a decade.
In the Desperate Fortress military exercise, no freshman had ever lasted more than eight hours. Even defeating a few second-year students by a stroke of luck was considered a rare and commendable feat.
In any other year, Li Jueyin's team's record of eliminating seven upperclassmen would have easily placed them in the top three—an already impressive accomplishment.
Yu Fei was a statistical anomaly, and the Yulin Army's good fortune was simply unprecedented.
