He attended high school graduation early and submitted his application for enlistment on the day he turned 18.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Soon after entering the army, his officers found him to be extremely talented.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At that time, the war wasn\u2019t yet serious, so after the recruit training his officer wrote him a letter of recommendation asking him to go to the Imperial Military University to study in the Department of Mecha Division. Before leaving, he patted his shoulder and said, &#8220;it would be a pity if you didn\u2019t become a Master Sergeant with such qualities.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yan Xueshan: &#8220;I don&#8217;t have much money. I don&#8217;t think I can afford to pay the tuition, so I&#8217;d better not go.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Officer: \u201cAfter graduation, you can pay off the training fee with ten years of compulsory service.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yan Xueshan felt that this rule was very flawed. What if he died in battle as soon as he graduated, just like his adoptive father? Then the country would have spent all this money for nothing!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He couldn\u2019t understand, he really couldn\u2019t.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anyway, this way he didn\u2019t need to pay for school.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not going to school would be bad.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He took three years to complete all the divisional courses and graduated with a combined grade of only B+ due to serious bias.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On a full percentage scale, he received the following final grades:<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thirty points in War History .<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sixty points for Introduction to Strategy.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eighteen points for the Tactical Analysis Exercise.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One hundred points for Shooting Practical Skills.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ninety-eight points for Battleship Fighting Skills.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ninety-nine points for Machine Engineering Exercises.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The school regulation stated that you needed to pass at least four subjects before being allowed to graduate. Originally, he failed in Introduction to Strategy, but the teacher tried every means to get him past the pass line!<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, at the age of 21, Yan Xueshan officially became a Mech Master Sergeant serving the Federation and was thrown into the middle of the war.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After the human race entered the interstellar era, warfare also evolved according to the times. The mechas developed by the Federation were divided into melee and long-range combat and according to the Federation\u2019s Tactical System, each close combat mecha needed to be paired with a distant combat mecha. This meant that each close combat mecha Master and a distant combat mecha Master needed to cooperate with each other.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Among the military academy students, there are very few soldiers who could drive mechas and there were even fewer snipers.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because they were at the forefront of the battle, the sergeant mortality rate was extremely high, close to 60% <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and the average years of service on the battlefield was about three years. This u<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sually meant death, but if you\u2019re <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">blessed by the Goddess of Luck, then you would just get an injury, which would allow you to retire.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The mortality rate of the Sniper Division Sergeant, compared to the Melee Division Sergeant, was lower, but after all it was a battlefield. After a Melee Division Sergeant died, the enemy would focus on eliminating the Sniper Division Sergeant.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since joining the army, Yan Xueshan has changed partners eight times, with an average of one partner killed in less than a year.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even so, he was still alive and was never even wounded.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So among Division Sergeants, he was known as the Black Widow, while the enemy lovingly called him the Blue Reaper because the thermal molten ion rays emitted from his sniper rifle had a faint blue light.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yan Xueshan still had no shortage of partners, because his skills were so good that several times when his Melee Division Sergeant partner died, he survived and even counter-killed the opposite side.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even after being surrounded by the enemy several times, he remained unharmed.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He was even on the verge of matching the record number of sniper kills by Xun Ying, the Federation&#8217;s all-time Sniper God and was also the pioneer of Sniper Master Sergeants. If the war had dragged on a little longer, he might\u2019ve actually been able to do it.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yan Xueshan himself was not obsessed with the title of so-called Sniper God. He didn\u2019t even consider himself very talented, so when people asked, he would just say, \u201cI just got lucky and survived every time. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0I didn\u2019t have an idea of \u200b doing meritorious deeds, I just wanted to survive.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That was until six years ago, when he was twenty-six years old.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fresh out of military school, a green-faced Arthur became his new partner. This was the youngest soldier from the Mecha Division assigned to him by the army. Arthur was just 19 years old and judging from his youthful face, he had never been on a battlefield.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When Yan Xueshan saw Arthur, he thought: It seems that the Federation is indeed getting more and more nervous about the war. For them to actually assign such a young rookie to him\u2026. Didn\u2019t that kid know he didn\u2019t have much longer to live? Such a silly and naive person, it was estimated that wouldn\u2019t live more than three months.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the time, Yan Xueshan was already a Class A Master Mecha Sergeant, the highest level available in the Federation.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His superior officer personally introduced Arthur to him, urging him to, \u201cTake care of him little more.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He didn\u2019t know if it was because Arthur was really too young, but Yan Xueshan felt a little sorry for him. Being sent over as cannon fodder at such a young age, he really felt a sense of pity.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He took more care of Arthur than his previously more experienced partners, teaching him many survival tips that new recruits needed to know.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Arthur was very touched and it didn&#8217;t even take him a day before he started calling him \u201cMaster.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>Edited by: Antiope1<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Support translation:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/bePatron?u=25191841\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"217\" height=\"51\" class=\"wp-image-338 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/become_a_patron_button.png?resize=217%2C51\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 217px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 217\/51;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ko-fi.com\/lajnaa\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ontimestory.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/kofi3-3.png?resize=185%2C47\" alt=\"This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is kofi3-3.png\" width=\"185\" height=\"47\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 185px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 185\/47;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>\r\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It might sound absurd, but it did happen.
