Enlisting for a Second Time: You Call This a New Recruit?

This book has no golden finger, no reborn or transmigrate plot, only the purest grit, blood, and glory!

At twenty-five, he reenlists.

When Zhuang Yan enters the barracks as an older recruit, everyone sees him as a good-for-nothing who failed to coast on military service and is just running from reality.

He says nothing in response to their mockery, scrubbing the filthiest toilets and tackling the most exhausting chores.

No one knows that he was once the shadow ace of a top-secret unit, codenamed Yama, a man who could become a legend with nothing but muscle and instinct.

When a hotheaded prodigy boasts that success in the military comes down to talent, Zhuang Yan laps him in a three-kilometer run and leaves him questioning his whole life.

When a decorated squad leader insists experience is everything, Zhuang Yan shatters that so-called barrier with five shots, all hitting the bullseye and landing on top of one another.

When an elite reconnaissance battalion lays a net of traps, he infiltrates enemy lines like a ghost and pulls off a textbook decapitation strike.

When the Blue Force, made up of retired special forces soldiers, fancies itself the hunter, Zhuang Yan turns the tables with a flawless trap within a trap and shows them who the real Yama is!

He once stood at the top of the world, and once fell into an endless abyss.

This time, he has not returned to claim a crown. He has come to wash away a bloodstained nightmare and break the demons binding him with his own hands.

Whoever dares to invade our China, no matter how far away, will be punished.

This is the story of a soldier, a soldier king, a man all but forgotten in peacetime, who reforges his blade and writes a new legend!
