The Interstellar Male God - Chapter 65

It’s really unimaginable. Perhaps someone body-snatched the Major General? Otherwise, why would he have so many expressions? Zhang Xuan couldn’t help but sink into his own thoughts and was unable to pull himself free of them to the point that he didn’t even notice when the car stopped.

Luo Lingxing also gained a lot from this trip. The information that he couldn’t understand at first became easy to understand under Han Junzhans explanations. His explanations were even better than his teachers and Luo Lingxing wondered if he could seek him out in the future.

I heard that if you wanted to hire a tutor in this world, you had to pay them. He wondered what the exact prices would be, and he decided he would ask his classmates tomorrow.

“We’re here. Let’s go.” Han Junzhan brought Luo Lingxing inside the military district.

Zhang Xuan finally broke free of his thoughts and turned to look behind him and realized that there was no one there. He glanced outside the window and saw that the Boss had already brought young master Luo inside the military district. He suddenly felt like he was abandoned.

Hey, Boss, wait for me.” Zhang Xuan didn’t have time to grumble, and got out of the car to keep up.

Seeing the two people walking side by side, Zhang Xuan felt that they were really well matched. This thought scared him and he immediately retracted his thoughts, and was careful not to allow his Boss to discover his line of thinking or else he’ll definitely have a miserable future.

Han Junzhan brought Luo Lingxing to their normal training area. Zhang Xuan stood beside them and introduced the place.

“There are five legions in the military department, and each legion has a marshal commander. This is the training location of the first legion. Everyone usually trains here. The boss is our regimental commander and will also train with us. You should also be training here in the future.”

Luo Lingxing listened to Zhang Xuan’s explanation as he examined the training grounds.

Although evening was fast approaching, there were numerous soldiers still training. Everyone was doing their own training tasks of their own accord. Those who saw Han Junzhan would give a salute before returning to their training. However, when Han Junzhan wasn’t looking, they would covertly glance towards their direction. They were especially curious about the stranger, Luo Lingxing.

In fact, the soldiers didn’t usually have high curiosity, but it was clearly different in regards to Luo Lingxing. It was all because their Major General personally brought him around! Everyone was currently guessing Luo Lingxing’s identity.

“Boss, is this a new recruit?” A boisterous voice shouted. Thereafter, they saw a burly man walking towards them.

Zhao Chongzhuo was still training new recruits, but when he saw the boss bring around a stranger, he became curious. Therefore, he set aside his task and came running over.

Zhao Chongzhuo examined Luo Lingxing while filtering the data of all the prominent families’ sons in his heart. For the boss to personally bring him around, he guessed that this stranger’s identity wasn’t low. Most importantly, his status must’ve been extremely high, otherwise with the boss’ personality, he would’ve cast the person aside even if they were an aristocrat.

“No, but he will be training with the new recruits in the future. I will decide on his training program, and he will start every evening after five,” Han Junzhan carefully ordered.

At that moment, Zhao Chongzhuo as well as the numerous people that heard this stood shocked in place like stone statues. Zhang Xuan found their dumbfounded expressions to be very amusing.

Because of the blow he just received, Zhang Xuan had already calmed down a lot. When he saw his comrade-in-arms’ terrified expressions, his heart finally settled.

Look, it wasn’t that he had a low tolerance of acceptance, but that the change in the Major General was really so great that no one was able to accept it.

“Is there a problem?” When Han Junzhan saw that these people all remained silent, he raised a brow, the temperature in his voice clearly dropping numerous degrees.

These people were suddenly startled and immediately shook their heads to show that they didn’t have any objections. However, when they looked at Luo Lingxing, their expression was full of curiosity.

This was the first time they saw their boss personally bring someone around, as well as arrange their training.

Han Junzhan briefly introduced Luo Lingxing to these people, then brought him to the training area for the new recruits.

“What is the training mission tonight?” Han Junzhan asked Zhao Chongzhuo.

“Running 10,000 meters while carrying weights,” Zhao Chongzhuo replied.

“Run with them first to test the limits of your body. Afterwards, I’ll arrange a concrete training program for you,” Han Junzhan said to Luo Lingxing.

“Okay,” Luo Lingxing replied.

“Boss, his system level…” Lin Mingying glanced at Luo Lingxing and said with a wrinkle in his brow. Before he could finish his sentence, he was cut off by Han Junzhan with a hand gesture.

“Everyone, gather around! You will run 10,00 meters while carrying weights! The last one will double to training. Start!” As soon as Zhao Chongzhuo ordered, the new recruits began running, trying to outdo each other.

Luo Lingxing planned to put on the weights, then start running, but he was stopped by Han Junzhan’s words. “You can just run with them without the weights.”

“Okay.” Luo Lingxing replied, and then followed the new recruits to start jogging.

10,000 meters was nothing to him in his last life, and it was something he could do in the blink of an eye. However, it was a shame that his body in this life was too weak, and his cultivation hadn’t returned yet. At the start of the run, it was still alright, however, he started to feel more strenuous as the run dragged on.

However, Luo Lingxing didn’t have the words “give him” in his dictionary. Although his body was weak, his spirit was willing and able to bear  hardships, so even if his body was tired, he still pushed on.

“Boss, his body’s system just reached a Grade D. The lowest grade our military district accepts is a Grade B. Won’t it be too difficult for him to have him run with a bunch of Grade Bs?” Lin Mingying said as he watched Luo Lingxing slow down.

One should know that a single grade difference in body is a quantitative leap, and the amount they could endure is also the difference between heaven and earth.

Taking running for example, the most a Grade D could run is about 5,000 meters, Grade C could run about 20,000 meters, and Grade B could run about 50,000 meters, and that was just the limit for ordinary people.

As a soldier, that limit is exponentially higher. Therefore, this 10,000 meter run is just an after dinner walk to these new recruits. Even if they were carrying weights, someone who was a Grade D still wouldn’t be able to catch up to them.

“His system is Grade D? And you’re saying he only just became a Grade D?” Zhao Chongzhuo had his attention focused on the new recruits, but was suddenly shocked into saying.

“Mn.” Lin Mingying nodded in response.

“Boss, is young master Luo’s system grade that low? That would mean running 10,000 meters already far surpassed his limit. Should his first training session be so difficult?” Zhang Xuan couldn’t help but exclaim. He looked at Luo Lingxing with an expression of worry.

Han Junzhan didn’t answer their questions, but kept his eyes trained on Luo Lingxing.

Luo Lingxing didn’t understand the division of physique and each grade’s limit that they had in this world. His current goal was to run 10,000 meters. He faintly felt that his own body was reaching its limit, yet there was still 5,000 meters left, so he had to finish it no matter what.

“Hi, are you alright?” A recruit saw that Luo Lingxing looked like he was about to fall over and worriedly asked.

“I’m fine,” Luo Lingxing spit out those two words with much difficulty. He felt his throat burning and was unable to say any more. His two legs also felt heavy, and each step was very difficult.

Although the recruit wanted to help Luo Lingxing, he couldn’t keep delaying himself when he saw the troops in the back catching up since whoever ended up last would have to double the training tomorrow, after all.

Luo Lingxing persisted in running another thousand meters before his body trembled, unable to carry on any longer. He gritted his teeth, and grabbed the cake he made from spiritual food from his space. He stuffed it in his mouth with a couple of bites and swallowed it with much difficulty. A thread of spiritual energy flowed throughout his body, his sore muscles were alleviated, and he was able to relax a bit.

His slow pace gradually increased again. And just like that, Luo Lingxing ate his spiritual food while slowly increasing his speed, preparing to sprint the last stretch.

“What smells so good?” The recruits closest to Luo Lingxing worked their noses to smell that faint scent that was like it almost wasn’t there. While unaware, their pace actually gradually slowed down.

“I don’t know, but it smells like it’s delicious,” a recruit echoed, his gaze looking around uncontrollably, trying to find the source of the smell.

Standing on the edge of the training field, Zhao Chongzhuo and the others frowned as they saw the recruits gradually slow down.

“What’s going on? Why are those fellows slowing down?” Zhang Xuan asked incredulously.

Running 10,000 while carrying weights should be a pre-meal light exercise for these guys, so their speed shouldn’t decrease at all.

“Look. Young master Luo’s speed is increasing. He’s already passed those few recruits,” Lin Mingying said in surprise.

When the others heard this, they immediately focused on Luo Lingxing’s body and saw that he was gradually speeding up. Although he still couldn’t compare to the other recruits, he was a lot faster than before.

“It’s the last lap. I wonder if he can hold on.” Zhao Chongzhuo was unwittingly nervous for him.

Although Luo Lingxing’s position was still at the back, there were still a few recruits behind him. This kind of result was already very good for someone with a Grade D system. One should know that those with Grade D simply could not run 10,000 meters, not to mention do it while surpassing a few recruits.

Since everyone was paying attention to Luo Lingxing, they naturally saw that he kept stuffing something in his mouth every once in a while.

“Is young master currently eating something?” Zhang Xuan asked, unsure.

“It looks like it.” Zhao Chongzhuo nodded his head, however, he was shocked in his heart. This was the first time he saw someone eat while running.

However, they were keenly aware that every time Luo Lingxing finished eating something, his speed would increase a bit. This led their suspicions to increase.

“Boss, could young master Luo be eating…” Although Lin Mingying didn’t finish his sentence, everyone could still guess what he wanted to say.

There was a kind of food that could increase your endurance and power in a short amount of time, but those things were usually detrimental to your health. No one would usually eat those things, and especially not for a tiny test. It was fine even if he couldn’t finish the run. There was no need to harm one’s own body just to hold out till the end. It simply wasn’t worth it.
