"Which military branch is the most elite?" "It has to be the Army—Special Forces are unmatched!" "Nonsense, the Air Force reigns supreme with their fighter jets and attack helicopters!" "Rubbish, with the Marine Corps around, no one else can claim dominance!" Listening to the endless debates among the veteran soldiers around him, Wang Nian simply grinned. "Heh, what's so hard about that? If you want to know who's the best, why not just try them all?" And so began Wang Nian’s fourth enlistment. Upon arriving at the recruit company, everyone wondered how a single all-rounder could exist. One month later, the recruits were left baffled as their own company commander seemed like a rookie in comparison. Three months in, the entire unit was in disbelief as one man single-handedly raised the ceiling of performance for every new soldier. While others muttered in confusion, Wang Nian was already running his five-kilometer route with a cigarette dangling from his lips.
