Chapter 18: Strict Training

Translator: Li_Voon_Loke

After the demonstration, under the leadership of Zhao Rui, everyone became more and more adept at completing the internal affairs of the dormitory. They were able to complete it in a very short amount of time.

However, what followed was the training in the next few days. The intensity was different from before.

Everyone in the sixth team began to train in formation!

The training formation was different from the military posture training. During the military posture training, everyone had to do a standard posture and sustain it in order to pass.

The training was mainly to train their teamwork. If one person had a problem, it was equivalent to the entire team being eliminated.

In the morning, the sun was shining bright.

The instructor first taught the essentials of walking in a straight line and told the recruits to keep practicing on the spot.

In the afternoon, after the instructor saw that everyone had mastered the essentials of walking in a straight line, he began the training of each horizontal line formation.

This was also the beginning of the “Nightmare” for the recruits.

In each line, the requirements for each person were very strict, they needed to ensure that they were in a standing position, keep their eyes at eye level, and keep their spirits up. They also needed to master the basic principles of walking and running.

After passing every horizontal line formation, all the recruits would practice a square formation.

During this period, the recruits could be said to have suffered a lot and it was extremely tiring.

The sixth team’s instructor’s preference never changed. Every time they trained, he would bring the entire team to train under the sun.

Under the scorching sun, it was difficult for the recruits to concentrate. As long as they relaxed a little, they would take the wrong steps.

Many recruits were scolded by the instructor because they were distracted, including Chi Heng and Bai Xiaofei.

In the entire sixth team, the one who was scolded the most was a tall boy. Every time he walked in the line, he made mistakes.

Although Instructor He was a recruit instructor, he was not even 1.7 meters tall.

Every time the instructor went up to correct or scold the tall one, he would always look up.

This scene was very comical and laughable.

However, none of the recruits could laugh. This was because every time the tall one made a mistake, all of them would have to re-train under the sun.

There were even many recruits who blamed the tall guy in their hearts for dragging down the entire sixth team.

The tall guy also blamed himself, but the more he blamed himself, the easier it was for him to make mistakes. Every time they were resting, the recruits were unwilling to sit with the tall guy.

On the second day of school, Zhao Rui was appointed as the class monitor by his senior, so he took on the responsibility of taking care of his classmates.

“Classmate, I’m Zhao Rui. What’s your name?”

“I know you.” Although the tall one was tall and strong, there was disappointment in his tone.

Since he had been making mistakes and dragging everyone down, the other recruits were ostracizing him.

Seeing that Zhao Rui took the initiative to talk to him, the tall one’s mouth moved a few times and he answered, “My name is Qian Jiang.”

“Aren’t you a little nervous during training? I see that you did well when you’re walking on your own. It’s not a problem for you to walk straight and do the steps.”

“No, don’t comfort me like that. I know that I’m stupid.” Qian Jiang sighed and said.

Zhao Rui could understand Qian Jiang’s current mood very well. Zhao Rui had just experienced an embarrassing situation in public because of his singing not long ago.

“You just lack confidence. If you don’t mind, after the training ends today, do you want to come to my dormitory tonight? My roommates and I will practice the steps with you.”

This batch of recruits were all arranged to stay in the first dormitory building, so it was convenient for them to visit each other.

However, before Zhao Rui could finish speaking, He Yingbo had them get up and continue training.

Perhaps it was because Zhao Rui’s words had an encouraging effect, in the following practice, Qian Jiang obviously made fewer mistakes.

The afternoon training was about to end, and many of the recruits were exhausted beyond recognition. Even Zhao Rui, who had been using the King of Soldier’s training space to train his physical fitness, felt that his feet were about to go numb, let alone the others.

The instructor looked at this group of recruits who had been tortured by him and ordered, “At ease! I have two things to say.”

“The first thing is, these days, I will choose the best person from among you. Moreover, the person who is serious and responsible will be the leader of our sixth team.” Instructor He raised his voice.

“The leader will assist the instructor in training the recruits. If the instructor is not around, everyone will obey the leader’s orders. Of course, I have very high requirements for the leader. If you want to be the leader, you must be able to endure more hardships.”

Hearing He Yingbo’s words, Zhao Rui immediately perked up. He, Zhao Rui, was definitely going to be the team leader.

It was not just Zhao Rui. Zhang Cheng and a few other recruits in the queue were also eager to give it a try after hearing that the instructor was going to select a team leader.

“The second thing is to gather here after dinner. I will allow you to relax tonight.”

After saying that, the instructor dismissed the team.

“The previous few days of training didn’t extend till night time. Today, we’re suddenly asked to come at night. Don’t tell me that we still have to train at night because our line-up didn’t go well?”

In the cafeteria, Chi Heng was chewing on a bun as he talked.

Meanwhile, Zhao Rui, Zhang Cheng, and Bai Xiaofei were sitting next to Chi Heng.

“I don’t think so.” Zhao Rui took a sip of the white porridge and said, “The instructor said that he wanted us to relax, so it shouldn’t be training.”

Bai Xiaofei said with a sad face, “I hope we don’t need to walk in the line again tonight. My legs are about to be crippled.”

After dinner, on the way back to the field, Zhao Rui and the others found that it wasn’t just the sixth team. The other male recruits were all walking toward the training field.

Chi Heng was a little surprised. “It looks like it’s not a temporary extra training from our instructor. It’s an activity that all the recruits have to participate in. I wonder what the Military Academy had prepared to help us relax.”

“Brother, this is a Military Academy. How can there be a relaxing activity?” Zhang Cheng did not have any expectations about what the instructor said from the beginning.

At the agreed time, everyone from the sixth team was present. No one dared to be late.

“Very good!” He Yingbo looked at these familiar faces and said, “Since everyone has returned to the team, let me explain tonight’s activity to you.”

“Tonight, all the new recruits will practice military songs to compete in a song battle.” The instructor cleared his throat and looked at the expressions of the recruits in front of him.

“What, just like this?”

Many new recruits felt that what the instructor said about relaxing activities should be more than this.

Some new recruits were already very satisfied. After all, this was a Military Academy. It was simply unrealistic to hope that there would be relaxing activities outside the wall.

With the evening breeze blowing, it was already a very happy thing to be able to compete with beautiful female soldiers.

However, the instructor’s next words completely shattered the new recruits’ fantasies. “For tonight’s song battle, the male soldiers will battle with the male soldiers, and the female soldiers will battle with the female soldiers. The sixth team will be competing with the fifth team.”

“What!”

“Instructor, you lied to us!”

A wave of wails immediately came from the group. Previously, they were all competing with the pretty girls, but now, they were competing with boys who were as big and burly as them. This group of big boys found it hard to accept such a difference..
