Hua Shangnan raised his hand to cut him off. "Lieutenant Huo, I understand how you feel. But a soldier with Ning Zhi's potential should go somewhere more suitable for him."
"They're all new recruits. This was just their initial assignment, so it's perfectly normal for transfers to happen early on."
He turned to Ning Xuan, his gaze intense. "With your abilities, you could be promoted to major within two or three years in the Special Defense Force. If a special opportunity arises, you could go even higher. In a regular unit, it might take ten years to reach that rank."
Huo Shan hung his head in defeat. Everything Hua Shangnan said was true. Ning Zhi had the right to choose the path that would benefit him more.
The other squad members looked at Ning Xuan with fervent hope. Of course, they didn't want her to leave. With someone as formidable as her around, their chances of piggybacking on her achievements would skyrocket, and they'd have a much better guarantee of survival.
