S01 E01New Recruits Enlistment Xia Zhuo Excels Deputy Commander Goes Undercover
At the training commencement ceremony for the 270th Brigade's new recruits, An Lei had the veterans demonstrate a rocket soldier's operational procedures to the newcomers. Xia Zhuo immediately voiced his doubts, arguing that the rocket soldiers' positioning after the “mark your positions” command was flawed and impractical for combat. After the ceremony, squad leader Lü Zheng harshly reprimanded Xia Zhuo, but Xia Zhuo refused to admit fault. Lü Zheng ran to complain to An Lei, only to find An Lei actually calculating the issue Xia Zhuo had raised. Lü Zheng requested Xia Zhuo's transfer out of his squad, but An Lei refused. Lü Zheng attempted to distribute care packages as customary, only to be driven away by Lin Anbang's sycophantic flattery.
S01 E02270th Brigade Conducts Full-Scale Relocation
Setelah mengetahui identitas sebenarnya Fang Zhenjun, Lü Zheng bergegas ke sisinya untuk menghentikan duel mereka. Dengan Brigade ke-270 yang segera berpindah ke kamp baru, semangat Xia Zhuo dan rekan-rekannya sedang rendah. Lü Zheng menyemangati pasukan, memimpin mereka meneriakkan "Pertahankan tanah air kami!" Pimpinan memutuskan untuk menggabungkan pemindahan tersebut dengan latihan militer. Ketika Brigade ke-270 memasuki kamp, Xia Zhuo dan rekan-rekannya menyaksikan berbagai senjata berat di hadapan mereka, perasaan bangga dan kagum yang kuat memenuhi diri mereka. Seorang dokter bernama Huang Wen dikirim dari rumah sakit pangkalan untuk menjabat sebagai psikolog brigade selama latihan tersebut.
S01 E03Xia Zhuo Illegally Enters Restricted Zone and Gets Confined to Barracks
Brigade ke-270 tiba-tiba menerima peringatan pangkalan: sebuah organisasi teroris telah diam-diam memasang program tak terbalikkan ke dalam sebuah perangkat peluncuran, dengan ledakan dijadwalkan dua belas jam kemudian. Xia Zhuo merancang rencana untuk mengubah medan magnet guna menjegal rudal tersebut, namun Ouyang Jun menolaknya sebagai tidak realistis. Ketika Xia Zhuo menghadap Qi Peng untuk mengajukan usulannya, ia mengetahui bahwa Ouyang Jun telah terlebih dahulu mengajukan rencana yang identik—yang dianggap lebih layak dilaksanakan. Saat menghadap Ouyang Jun karena mencuri idenya, Ouyang Jun membantahnya dan menyarankan Xia Zhuo memverifikasi sendiri catatannya. Xia Zhuo pergi ke arsip untuk memverifikasinya, namun justru tertangkap basah dan segera dikurung di dalam sel tahanan.
S01 E04Xia Zhuo and Yi Zimeng Escape the Cave Depot
In detention, Xia Zhuo replayed today's events and realized this was likely just a drill. He frantically sought someone to unlock the door. Xia Zhuo earnestly presented his theory, but Lü Zheng scoffed at his analysis. Ultimately, Xia Zhuo failed to convince the company commander and others, landing him back in detention. Xia Zhuo refused to give up. He knew failing to find An Lei meant losing the competition. Lü Zheng spotted Xia Zhuo escaping through the ventilation shaft on surveillance and entered the detention cell to investigate. When Lü Zheng opened the door, both Lin Anbang and the others were stunned. Yi Zimeng had vanished. Lü Zheng guessed both Xia Zhuo and Yi Zimeng were in the tunnel and made no attempt to search for them.
S01 E05Xia Zhuo Awarded Third-Class Merit
Brigade Commander Wang Jinying personally interrogated Xia Zhuo, who articulated his thoughts with eloquence. Impressed by Xia Zhuo's analysis, Wang Jinying invited him to join the 334th Brigade, but Xia Zhuo promptly declined. Meanwhile, Battalion Commander Qi and others finally realize the problem aligns with Xia Zhuo's predictions, prompting them to activate the contingency strategy. The 270th Brigade issues Xia Zhuo and Yi Zimeng administrative warnings, leaving Yi Zimeng deeply disheartened. The exercise is forcibly terminated, and leaders like Fang Zhenjun express profound regret over its failure. Xia Zhuo was returned to the 270th Brigade, where Lü Zheng personally led a team to retrieve him. Though Lü outwardly expressed disdain, he was secretly overjoyed.
S01 E06An Lei establishes the Blade Company
Brigade ke-270 pindah ke barak baru dan memulai latihan menyeluruh. An Lei dan Komisaris Politik Liang mengusulkan pembentukan unit khusus yang mampu melancarkan pukulan penentu terakhir, dan Liang mendukung usul itu. Mereka meminta masukan para veteran dengan niat memilih relawan untuk sebuah kompi gabungan—elite "Battle Blade Company". Lü Zheng juga mengenali potensi Xia Zhuo, sehingga ia mendaftarkan Xia Zhuo dalam Elite Gunner Selection Competition. Ouyang Jun tidak senang mengetahui Xia Zhuo berniat mengalah padanya, menuntut Xia Zhuo berkompetisi dengan sungguh-sungguh dan bahkan memarahinya. Xia Zhuo menjadi sangat marah, dan keduanya kembali berselisih soal masalah itu.
S01 E07Ace Gunner Selection Begins
Lin Anbang was caught by the squad leader flirting with a female medic. The squad leader ordered him to volunteer for today's IV and intramuscular injections, threatening to call the company commander otherwise. Lin Anbang had no choice but to comply. On the boxing ring in the gym, Xia Zhuo and Ouyang Jun sparred fiercely, neither holding back as they landed punch after punch to each other's faces. Lü Zheng intervened, ordering them to return and reflect on their actions. An Lei proposed having the Four Elders participate alongside the new recruits in the Elite Shooter Selection Tournament to set an example. Hou Jidong and Chen Haofeng objected, but Lang Yongcheng assured them he could handle it. With Lang Yongcheng's assurance, the other three reluctantly agreed.
S01 E08Xia Zhuo Abandons the Shortcut to Rescue His Brother
Lin Anbang deliberately pressed the abandon button. Lü Zheng immediately drove over, only to find the button alone. At that moment, Lin Anbang and Yi Zimeng secretly emerged and drove off with Lü Zheng's car. Xia Zhuo and Ouyang Jun went to find Lin Anbang and Yi Zimeng, only to encounter an enraged Lü Zheng. Xia Zhuo and Ouyang Jun brought Lü Zheng back to the standby hangar, arriving just as the Four Elders were dining. The two were ravenously hungry. Lin Anbang and Yi Zimeng drove up to meet everyone, claiming they'd withdrawn from the competition. Lü Zheng had sent him to sell goods, and the group was instantly fooled. Since they hadn't brought money for the competition, Lin Anbang even had Yi Zimeng keep track of the accounts.
S01 E09Lin Anbang Eliminated
Xia Zhuo and the others finally located Lin Anbang and Yi Zimeng, with everyone deeply displeased by Lin Anbang's actions. Xia Zhuo and Yi Zimeng severely reprimanded Lin Anbang, who only then realized his mistake. Xia Zhuo and Yi Zimeng led their comrades onward, while the Four Elders left all the food for the new recruits, leaving themselves to eat only wild vegetables. Lü Zheng sought to expel Lin Anbang from the Blade Battalion, but Lin protested vehemently. Xia Zhuo and Yi Zimeng accompanied Lin back, only for Lin to end up comforting them instead. The Four Elders were about to depart for the Elders' Village. An Lei specially had Yang Wanjin deliver sweaters for them and arranged a dedicated vehicle for their journey.
S01 E10Seven Days of Extreme Survival Training
Xia Zhuo requested a different service number, but Yu Quanhai coldly refused. Yu Quanhai's training was strict, and Xia Zhuo couldn't help but curse under his breath. As punishment, he was made to run three laps around the training field. During cross-country training, a comrade fell. Xia Zhuo was the last to arrive at the scene and was punished by being denied dinner. Xia Zhuo, Yi Zimeng, and Ouyang Jun each secretly shared some of their rations with him. Yu Quanhai discovered this. Not only did he eliminate the fallen comrade, but he also punished Xia Zhuo and the other two with standing penalties. The squad leader explained the duties of a missile operator to new recruits like Lin Anbang. Lang Yongcheng encouraged Lin Anbang, saying that if he trained hard and impressed him, he too could earn a spot in the Blade Company. Lin Anbang suddenly understood.
S01 E11Xia Zhuo and others persevere to the finish line
Lin Anbang felt anxious, growing tense the moment he boarded the vehicle—so much so that Lang Yongcheng was speechless. Lin Anbang didn't want to be separated from Xia Zhuo, Yi Zimeng, and Ouyang Jun. He begged Lang Yongcheng to put in another good word for him with Lü Zheng. Xia Zhuo, Yi Zimeng, and Ouyang Jun were still carrying the wooden stakes forward. When they couldn't bear it anymore, they rested on the spot. With only twelve kilometers left, Ouyang Jun suddenly collapsed. Xia Zhuo and Yi Zimeng were startled and noticed his waist wound had become infected. Xia Zhuo decided to fire a signal flare, but Yi Zimeng urged him to reconsider. Yu Quanhai waited at the finish line. Four teams had already arrived, but all except Xia Zhuo's group had given up.
S01 E12The Elder Village's Bizarre Training Holds Deeper Meaning
Upon hearing Yu Quanhai was leaving, Xia Zhuo came specially to see him off. Yu Quanhai told Xia Zhuo meaningfully that every person one encounters should not be experienced in vain; what matters most is what one can learn and gain insight from them. After enduring the grueling boot camp, the group reentered the Elders' Village, the final stop of the selection camp. Lin Anbang lay awake that night, reminiscing about his university days with Xia Zhuo, Ouyang Jun, and Yi Zimeng. Training in the Elder Village officially commenced. Lang Yongcheng rode a small motorcycle while leading them on a 10-kilometer run, challenging them: whoever touched the motorcycle's rear first at the finish line would treat him to Hunan rice noodles.
S01 E13Xia Zhuo's Impulsive Act Leads to a Lesson
Xia Zhuo wanted to share his noodles with Yi Zimeng, but Lang Yongcheng refused. Having gone without noodles, Xia Zhuo ran back with the main group. Fuming, Xia Zhuo modified the missile into a bed and confronted Chen Haofeng about his dissatisfaction with the training camp, only to be harshly reprimanded. As the Blade Squadron was officially established and saluted the squadron flag, An Lei declared they were the ultimate killing weapon in combat. Lin Anbang encountered Lang Yongcheng while donating funds. Lang asked Lin if he wanted to join the Blade Squadron, Lin Anbang was thrilled. Lang Yongcheng approached Lü Zheng, proposing Lin Anbang as his final disciple.
S01 E14Xia Zhuo's Clever Squirrel Catch
Hou Jidong and Chen Haofeng remained at the base camp, giving all their provisions to the standby warehouse. Ouyang Jun arrived with the finalized accommodation arrangements, deeply displeased at not being admitted to the standby warehouse. Xia Zhuo and others reentered the standby warehouse. Lang Yongcheng asked Xia Zhuo to accompany him to the restroom, where Xia Zhuo and Lin Anbang reunited. A small squirrel entered the main control room. Lü Zheng ordered everyone to find it. Xia Zhuo caught the squirrel with just one peanut, leaving Lü Zheng utterly astonished. Ouyang Jun brought a goose to participate in the practical exercise. Chen Haofeng was furious and told him to take care of the goose before returning. Ouyang Jun had no choice but to entrust the goose to Yan Yibing.
S01 E15Yi Zimeng Feels Deeply Wronged by Criticism
Lang Yongcheng persuaded Lü Zheng to give Lin Anbang a chance, and Lü Zheng softened his stance. Another goose died, leaving Ouyang Jun filled with self-blame. Hou Jidong suggested eating the goose, but Ouyang Jun flatly refused. Both Hou Jidong and Chen Haofeng recognized Ouyang Jun's potential and began vying for him as a disciple. Yi Zijun was going stir-crazy in the combat readiness duty room. Wang Xianmin agreed to cover Yi Zimeng's shift for two days so he could get some fresh air. Lang Yongcheng signed Lin Anbang up for the qualification exam, and Lin Anbang declared he would pass on his first try. Lü Zheng chased Yi Zimeng back to the company headquarters and immediately convened a video conference call, requiring everyone in the standby hangar to attend.
S01 E16Battle Blade Company Excels in Drills
An Lei learned both Blue Teams had been wiped out, with the special sniper eliminated by Xia Zhuo—a development both thrilling and unexpected. Lü Zheng was also satisfied with the exercise. Lin Anbang officially joined the Blade Company, much to the delight of Lang Yongcheng, Xia Zhuo, and others. Lü Zheng assigned tasks: besides mastering their primary specialties, all members must become proficient in other fields and obtain certification. They had only three months; those unable to learn could leave immediately. Ouyang Jun began learning to drive, with Lin Anbang as his instructor—a situation that deeply frustrated him. Lin Anbang acted like a big shot, and Ouyang Jun stormed off in anger.
S01 E17Four-Person Group Assessment
Shao Shuai approached Lü Zheng to discuss students' unbalanced academic focus. Wang Xianmin and Lao Liu had almost no students under their guidance. Wang Xianmin had only one disciple, Xia Zhuo, which surprised Lü Zheng. Yi Zimeng hadn't applied for any major, so Lü Zheng instructed Shao Shuai to give him a stern talking-to. The major allocation list was posted, and everyone gathered to discuss Yi Zimeng, who hadn't applied for any majors. Seeing this, Yi Zimeng panicked and hurried to find Xia Zhuo, asking him to put in a good word so he could apprentice under Wang Xianmin. The assessment began. Xia Zhuo, Ouyang Jun, Yi Zimeng, and Lin Anbang were randomly grouped together. Yi Zimeng drew the role of firing control operator and grew visibly nervous, repeatedly insisting he wasn't up to the task.
S01 E18Xia Zhuo's Wrongful Conviction Overturned, Championship Title Restored
Chuandong University received a call from the Super Brain organizers regarding the resolution of Xia Zhuo's championship dispute. The president immediately notified Xia Zhuo. Lü Zheng accompanied Xia Zhu back to campus, though Xia Zhu still found it hard to believe. His restored title and prize money were confirmed, and Lü Zheng expressed envy upon hearing it amounted to one million USD. Accompanied by Lü Zheng, Xia Zhuo specifically searched online and was overjoyed to see his championship title restored. The Sword Edge Company held a company-wide meeting where Yang Wanjin congratulated Xia Zhuo on his championship victory. Xia Zhuo celebrated with Yi Zimeng and Lin Anbang, substituting water for alcohol, and declared that part of the prize money belonged to them.
S01 E19Xia Zhuo Returns to School to Complete Procedures
The school requested Xia Zhuo's personal visit, and An Lei assigned Lü Zheng to accompany him. Lin Anbang and Yi Zimeng reluctantly saw Xia Zhuo off. Yi Zimeng reminded him to bring back the guitar he promised to buy, while Lin Anbang went overboard, listing a long shopping list. Lü Zheng shooed Yi Zimeng and Lin Anbang back home before setting off with Xia Zhuo. Ouyang Jun recalled the scene when he was caught cheating years ago, so he called the Dean of Students for help. After Ouyang Jun pleaded repeatedly, the Dean finally agreed to try to help him. When Xia Zhuo returned to his alma mater and met the principal, the principal was very proud of him but refused Xia Zhuo's idea of donating money to the school.
S01 E20Lü Zheng and Xia Zhuo Discover Ouyang Jun's Mistake
Learning of the rift between Ouyang Jun and his father, Xia Zhuo and Lü Zheng resolved to help resolve the misunderstanding. They planned to dine with Ouyang Hua to understand the situation, but were repeatedly turned away at the door. During another visit, they pretended to be sent by Ouyang Jun to check on him, finally prompting Ouyang Hua to reveal the root of their discord and soften his attitude toward them. Ouyang Hua praised Ouyang Jun for excelling—promoted shortly after joining the military—and showed them his photos. Xia Zhuo and Lü Zheng exchanged glances, then chose to play along without exposing the truth.
S01 E21Ouyang Jun locks himself in
During breakfast the next morning, a pre-recorded video of Ouyang Hua suddenly played on the large screen. Ouyang Jun was furious, accusing Xia Zhuo of meddling in their father-son affairs without permission. Shao Shuai explained that Xia Zhuo and Lü Zheng had intended to help them reconcile—they'd met Ouyang Hua in Qingdao—but Ouyang Jun refused to acknowledge their efforts. Shao Shuai and Lü Zheng discussed Ouyang Jun's situation, feeling both love and frustration toward him, but mostly guilt and regret. Ouyang Jun locked himself in the storage room, prompting Shao Shuai to rush in. No matter what Shao Shuai said outside, Ouyang Jun remained silent.
S01 E22Ouyang Jun Meets Xia Zhuo's Parents
Xia Zhuo discovered that Lin Anbang had not only accessed his computer but also embellished and added to the contents before choosing to publish them publicly. Xia Zhuo had no choice but to call Huang Wen for help. Huang Wen promised to help get the website administrators to remove the post. Lü Zheng also contacted the website, demanding the post be deleted, but they insisted the original poster must submit the request themselves. Ouyang Jun went to find Lü Zheng and Shao Shuai, prompting Shao Shuai to quickly escort Xia Zhuo away. Lü Zheng tentatively mentioned the online incident to Ouyang Jun. To prevent a fight, Shao Shuai deliberately assigned Xia Zhuo and Ouyang Jun to face-to-face guard duty, explicitly forbidding them from arguing.
