With the cavalry patrolling, it was convenient for An Jing and the others to find out how the other participants were doing.
At first, the ten female soldiers and ten male soldiers were moving together, but over time, Tobanya and Du Aya ended up at the front, while among the male soldiers, Qi Gaoda and Qi Weimeng took the lead.
Qi Gaoda, whether intentionally or unintentionally, happened to be walking side by side with Du Aya, striding forward quickly.
The two of them were both quite tall. Even though Du Aya only reached Qi Gaoda's shoulder, in the eyes of those behind them, both looked like giants—like towering mountains. Their similarly strong builds made those trailing behind them feel like they resembled brothers.
Realizing that Du Aya was actually a woman, the male soldiers in the rear quickly averted their gazes. Best not to look—it was simply too eye-piercing.
