Chapter 312
“Gather around!” Jason blew his whistle, and all the trainees immediately halted their exercises, quickly forming three neat rows.
Upon seeing Flora, a bunch of almost shirtless young men felt a bit flustered.
“Master, you should have warned us before bringing Ms. Flora here! At least let us throw on a shirt or something! We have our pride, you know!”
“From today onwards, Ms. Flora will be your Instructor. How you train and what you train will be under her guidance. Treat her with the same respect you show me. Anyone who disrespects her will have to deal with the lawman’s whip.”
Hearing this, the trainees‘ faces paled.
Colton, standing front and center, looked up at Flora with a mix of curiosity and anticipation in his eyes.
Lance, on the other hand, was over the moon; he couldn’t be happier about Flora being their trainer!
But the rest of the Enforcement trainees wore expressions that ranged from skeptical to downright dismayed.
The idea of a woman instructor seemed ridiculous to them. Even though Lance always credited Flora for his quick progress, they were suspicious.
They figured the boss was just giving Lance special treatment, and Flora had little to do with it.
“Master, having Ms. Flora as our instructor might not be the best idea,” one trainee cautiously voiced. “She seems too delicate to lead the Enforcement
team. It feels a bit forced.”
They were trying to be polite. Had it not been for the help Flora gave Lance, they might have been much blunter.
“Quiet! You should consider yourselves lucky to be taught by Ms. Flora!” Jason snapped, barely containing his anger. It had taken a lot of effort to get Flora to agree to this role. If they scared her off, he’d be livid.
“Who told you Ms. Flora is weak? Her strength far exceeds anything you can

imagine! I guarantee, in a one–on–one fight, none of you would stand a chance against her!”
The trainees knew Jason wasn’t one to exaggerate, but still… Flora, with her slender build, didn’t exactly scream ‘master fighter.‘
“Ms. Flora, being the instructor for the Enforcement team isn’t a role just anyone can fill. You have to show us you’re up to the task. If you genuinely are that strong, we’ll respect you as our instructor. But if you’re not, we can’t accept you.”
One trainee stepped forward to voice the group’s thoughts, and the others nodded in agreement.
Only real strength would earn their respect. If Flora couldn’t prove herself, they wouldn’t acknowledge her as their instructor.
“Brothers, you don’t get it. Ms. Flora is seriously powerful! She’s taken down dozens of The Red Scorpions in the underground combat ring by herself! And during that escort mission, even mercenaries couldn’t beat her!”
Despite the endorsement, the trainees remained silent and resolute. They needed Flora to prove her strength to accept her willingly.
Flora glanced at their stubborn faces, rubbing her wrists with a smirk. “Jason, is this the welcome party you mentioned?”
