"Daily training will be grueling, and in times of war, soldiers like you will be on the front lines. There's a real risk of losing your life or being used as bait. Aren't you afraid of that?" Shao Yunduan questioned.
"Even if I become an officer as an Advanced Scholar, from a Recommended man, I may not be able to help you. Besides, the army doesn't consider where you're from. Your fate will depend solely on your own actions once you're there. Are you still determined to join the army?"
Shao Xiaoqi was taken aback, but his hesitation only lasted for a moment before he nodded. "Fifth Brother, I'm not afraid. I want to join the army. I feel the need to do something meaningful with my life, or I'll regret it in the future. With you and Fifth Sister-in-law at home, I won't fear anything or have anything to be afraid of. That's enough for me!"
