The Rise of Small Soldiers, the Determination of Technology

Soldiers rise, science and technology compete, and classmates compete for supremacy. Just after the bell for evening self-study, a thunderstorm outside the window swept in with strong winds. Big raindrops hit the glass, making a dull crackling sound. The lights in the classroom flickered on and off, reflecting the tired but focused faces of the forty-six students. Class monitor Lin Yan was lowering his head to calculate a math final question, deputy squad leader Zhao Yu was leaning on the back of his chair, secretly browsing the financial news on his phone, and study committee member Su Qing was sorting out the homework that had just been collected. Occasionally, there was the rustle of a pen tip across the paper in the classroom. Everything was as normal and orderly as countless evening self-study sessions. Until a pale thunder pierced the night sky and accurately hit the lightning rod on the top of the classroom. In an instant, the dazzling white light filled the entire classroom, and there was a deafening roar in the ears. Then, a powerful suction force swept in. Forty-six students had no time to scream, and were swallowed up by the white light. The classroom instantly became empty, leaving only scattered books, extinguished lamps, and the thunderstorm still raging outside the window. It seemed that everything just now was just an illusion. Lin Yan was awakened by a biting chill and a harsh cry of death. He suddenly opened his eyes, and what he saw was not the familiar classroom ceiling, but the sky full of yellow sand and fighting soldiers. He was wearing rough linen short brown, stained with mud and blood, holding a rusty bronze dagger in his hand, and there was a heartbreaking pain in his shoulder. He became a low-level soldier in the Daqin border military camp, and was only known as "Boy Lin".
