A 1:30 PM, the seven elite teams began the second round of the first event in their cross–country march. 

This phase covered a grueling 3.5 miles with over 40 enemy “ambush points” hidden along narrow paths, followed by a six–mile armed sprint. 

In this team–based competition, each squad performed impressively. 

Group A’s Dragon Soul, Dark Panther, and War Wolf squads all completed the task within the set time and score limits. 

With the completion of the first major event in the Wollsbane Summit military martial tournament, Group A’s teams stood as follows: 

Dark Panther took the lead with three points. 

Dragon Soul followed with two points, putting them in second place.. 

War Wolf, due to a negative one–point score from the 19–mile weighted march, ended up with one point in total, landing them in third place. 

At 3:00 PM, the first event–the cross–country march–officially concluded. 

After a short break, the teams prepared for the tournament’s second event, which would begin at 3:30 PM the Individual Military Skills Sniper Competition. 

The sniper competition was divided into three rounds 12–mile long–range sentinel shot, a 03–mile precision shot under simulated night conditions, and 0.3 mile moving target shot. 

At 3:30, Xavier announced the start of the first round of the sniper event: the 1.2–mile long–range sentinel shot. 

Each of the three special forces teams sent one member forward to 

compete. 

First up was Colonel George Loman from Dark Panther Special Forces, a top–ranked sniper who had consistently led the long–range shooting events in past military tournaments and was among the top three snipers in the entire military. 

George quickly assembled his rifle, calibrated his sight took aim, and fired. 

In four minutes and thirty–nine seconds, he achieved a perfect score: ten shots, and fen bullseyes, earning Dark Panther an additional point, bringing their total to four. 

Next was Bill from Dragon Soul Special Forces, who was also ranked in the top three elite snipers in the Special Operations Military Region.

point, raising their total to three, though they remained in second place. 

Finally, War Wolf Special Forces sent their sniper, Lieutenant Derrick Myrad, to the line. 

Derrick scored bullseyes on his first nine shots, but due to a sudden shift in wind speed, his final shot hit just outside the center ring, scoring nine points. 

According to the rules, Dark Panther and Dragon Soul tied for first in this round, each earning one point. 

War Wolf, however, ranked third and lost a point. 

With that, War Wolf’s total score dropped to zero, pushing them back to the bottom of the rankings. 

The 12–mile sentinel shot event ended, leaving War Wolf at a disadvantage. 

For War Wolf, already at the bottom of the scoreboard, this outcome was a serious setback. 

If they faltered again in the remaining two rounds, War Wolf Special Forces would be in an precarious position. 

This dismal performance left Silas deeply anxious.

If this trend continued, War Wolf Special Forces might as well pack up before the third event–the freestyle combat competition–even started. 

The sequence in which each competitor was sent out hard been meticulously planned by Robin. 

In this first round of the 1.2–mile long–range sentinel shot, Robin had chosen not to start with Ernest, who, was also among the top three elite snipers in the military, instead assigning the 12–mile fixed target to their promising rookie, Derrick. 

“Instructor Ramsey, with things looking this way… 

Robin interrupted Silas, “The competition’s just begun, no need to worry. We’re still in control. Worst case, we take them down in overtime.” 

“But our score gap is too wide,” Silas said, his concern evident. Tm worried we won’t be able to catch up!” 

Robin gave a calm smile. “Let’s just be patient and wait it out.” 

The second round began, with a simulated 0.3–mile precision night sniper event held at the Wolfsbane Summit military training base. 

Each team participant entered the indoor simulation area ten minutes in advance, prepared for the specialized target environment. 

Dark Panther Special Forces fielded a rookie sniper this time, Second Lieutenant Gus Labadie. 

In his first big competition, Gus managed perfect tens for the first nine targets but faltered on the last one. scoring only a seven. 

Dark Panther wasn’t too bothered by this; with their total score at four points, they were still in strong standing for the next round.

For Dragon Soul Special Forces, Major Laurie Holmes was up next. 

Ranked sixth among the army’s best snipers and a four–year veteran of Dragon Soul, he felt the pressure on his first shot, hitting only nine points, but then scored tens on all nine remaining targets. 

While it wasn’t a flawless performance, it kept them from losing points, 

If War Wolf scored lower, Dragon Soul might still take the lead in this round. 

War Wolf Special Forces sent out Jerome, a less–experienced sniper whose shooting skills weren’t top t in the army. 

However, Jerome was known for his exceptional mental stability, a critical trait for a sniper.

Robin had chosen him for precisely this reason and had given Jerome a special session on precision night shooting beforehand. 

If War Wolf could seize the opportunity in this round, they would still be able to control the pace of the competition. 

Otherwise, their fate would be left to chance.
