All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 421 Teach the Instructor a Lesson

Branden frowned as he looked at his phone. His eyes seemed to be as cold as ice.

Looking at Branden’s gaze, Paxton felt a deep sense of trepidation.

His heart was about to jump out of his throat, beating frantically. If one listened carefully to his words, one would notice the trembling in his voice.

“Sir, has Miss Swann still not answered her phone call?”

She not only ignored the call but straight up hung up on Branden this time. When Branden tried to call back, he was notified to leave a message after the beep.

Upon careful recollection, Branden realized that he hadn’t offended Catherine in any way.

“She was fine after the last phone call. Why did she suddenly ignore me?

“Has something really happened?” he thought.

Branden instantly panicked at the thought of this possibility and lost his usual composure and stability.

“Send everyone out to search for Catherine. Find her no matter what the cost,” he ordered.

“Don’t worry, sir. I will make arrangements right away!”

Paxton didn’t dare to delay in the slightest. He had initially thought that he could relax a bit after the transaction, but he did not expect there to be trouble on Catherine’s side.

“She hadn’t answered the phone for such a long time. What if there really was an urgent matter? I might be the first to be destroyed by Branden,” thought Paxton.

Just thinking about it gave Paxton heart palpitations, so he quickened his pace.

At Scorpion Island.

Today, all the trainees sensed that their instructor didn’t seem to be in a good mood. Although the instructor exuded an imposing aura previously, it was stern and sharp.

However, this stern and sharp aura had clearly turned into the aura of death today. The horrifying vibe around him could even be sensed many miles away. The trainees who figured this out were on edge, not knowing what the angry instructor might do next.

“After all, the situation was already like hell on earth, even before his outbreak of fury.

“If he were to lose his temper, no one would know what might happen in the future,” they thought. With a soft cough, Catherine cast her cold gaze toward the trainees standing in front.

“Today is the training session for physical fitness and combat. Please gather here for the group drawing. Three individuals will form a group, and only the first-place contestant in each group will be awarded a safety card.”

Upon hearing the task announced by Catherine, the 18 trainees present couldn’t help but swallow nervously in silence.

This meant that only six people among them would be safe today, and the rest could be eliminated and kicked off Scorpion Island.

The three brothers from the Duncans now could only pray that they wouldn’t get matched up as a team.

They didn’t want to be rivals against each other and definitely didn’t want to see anyone getting kicked out from here so early.

Unfortunately, things didn’t always go the way they wanted.

Carlo and Francis were unexpectedly assigned to the same group. Looking at each other, they exchanged glances and decided to give their all. They couldn’t let the opportunity of advancing slip away to someone else.

As for the duel between the two, Catherine was rather looking forward to it. The fighting here wasn’t just a simple exercise. It was an hour of close-range fighting with three persons battling it out.

Ultimately, it depended on the psychological warfare tactics as to whether to first cooperate with the other party and eliminate one of them or engage in a three-way fight directly.

One hour later, the six members who stood firmly in the arena were finally awarded safety cards. The duel between Carlo and Francis came to an end, with Carlo emerging as the hard-won victor.

It was not at all surprising to Francis that Carlo had always been better at martial arts and had a much greater physical advantage over him.

The remaining 12 candidates who didn’t win the first round would proceed to the second round of combat, which would be much more brutal compared to the previous three-person duel. Before, it was one against two. Now, it was one against eleven.

What was worse, it was under the circumstances where each individual had already experienced a round of intense battle, and their physical stamina had already been depleted.

But among those who could stay, everyone was an elite.

No one would give up.

The more they persisted, the harsher the situation became. The six individuals who advanced to the next round could not help but close their eyes and secretly felt relieved when they saw the bloody scene.

However, they seemed to have celebrated a bit prematurely. Sitting on the rooftop with a leaf between her lips, Catherine suddenly spoke up the next moment.

“Don’t just stand there. They have their challenges, and you have your own challenges!”

The six were at a loss for words. One of them couldn’t help but ask Catherine a question.

“Mr. Anon, didn’t you say earlier that we would be able to obtain a safety card if we emerge victorious?”

“That’s right!” Catherine nodded in agreement, her gaze filled with meaning as she looked at the speaker. ”

Do you think you don’t have to participate in the next round, and the training will end if you get the safety card?

“If you would like to go home, just let me know. I will immediately arrange for a plane!”

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire audience fell silent. No one dared to speak.

Deep down in the hearts of all six individuals, it was clear that the task would definitely not be this simple with the instructor’s personality. They were just trying to make a final desperate attempt.

With her elbow leaning against the car roof, Catherine leaped down with a stunning pose and landed steadily in front of the six.

“They lost to you. So they would fight against 11 people. As for you, it will be easy to fight six versus one. The time limit is one hour, and whoever stands till the end can rest. Those who lose will continue with weighted training at night.”

The six people were all a bit confused, evidently not understanding the meaning behind Catherine’s words.
