72 Falling
The location of the practical training was the same every year. It was an army recruit camp in G City’s military district. However, the students would not be required to undergo high-intensity training. They would only do some simple training in the periphery.
When Shi Man and the others arrived, they happened to encounter rainy weather.
...According to the rules, as long as it was not a rainstorm that would impact their activities, they had to listen to orders and continue training on the training ground.
The students of Class F received their training clothes resentfully and followed the instructor’s order to form a line to distribute the dormitory.
Su Tang made it a point to stand with Shi Man so that the two of them would not be separated by the instructor.
After changing into her training clothes, she was about to go downstairs to participate in the training. Su Tang jogged behind Shi Man and said, “It’s raining outside. It should be cold at night. Do you need a hand warmer? I have it here. You can use it.”
“Use it yourself.” Shi Man liked the drizzling weather outside the most. At this time, the training would not be too hot. Instead, it was so cool that every pore on her body felt comfortable.
Su Tang put away the hand warmer in embarrassment and did not take it out to use.
The longer she interacted with her, the more Su Tang felt that she was far inferior to Shi Man. She did not want Shi Man to think that she was a delicate and useless friend. She would subconsciously learn from Shi Man’s sharpness. As time passed, her soft personality would occasionally become sharp.
As the instructor blew the whistle, the hellish training life officially began.
The instructor of Class F was the most amiable in the entire training ground. His personality was very similar to that of Geng Hui.
He stood in front of the class square and introduced himself with a smile. “My name is Zhang Cheng. You can call me Instructor Zhang. We will train together for the next week. If you have any questions, you can tell me. I hope you can follow the rules of the collective training and let us experience an unforgettable collective training together.”
Even though the students of Class F were in agony, they still agreed seriously.
Due to the fact that they were usually students who lacked exercise, the instructor did not arrange for difficult training immediately. Instead, he let them run a thousand meters to warm up.
However, this was already an impossible obstacle for students who usually only knew how to eat, drink, and play.
Some of the girls raised their hands to report that they were not feeling well and asked for additional concession not to participate in this long-distance training.
Instructor Zhang understood the difficulties of the female students. He smiled and nodded. “Female classmates who are on your period, try your best to run. If you really can’t run, come to my side to rest. Male students, if there are no special circumstances, gather at my place after the class monitor leads the team to finish running a thousand meters. No one is allowed to be lazy. Otherwise, the entire team will be punished to run another thousand meters!”
Su Tang blushed when she was suddenly called out by Instructor Zhang. Then, she felt a huge pressure fall on her head.
Although she was not a lazy person, and her part-time job made her fitter than ordinary girls, a thousand meters was still too difficult for her. She could barely finish the simple 800 meters at the sports meet, let alone run the entire distance with a boy’s speed.
She was about to say something, but when she saw the instructor’s serious face, she swallowed her words and turned around to run without saying a word.
The square for Cassel’s training was arranged in an empty space on the periphery. It was surrounded by bushes. From time to time, one or two frogs would squat by the roadside and stare at the students undergoing training.
Su Tang felt exhausted before she could even reach the halfway mark. Her lower left abdomen was so uncomfortable that it hurt. However, as the class monitor, she had to complete the order given by the instructor. She gritted her teeth and ran.
Boys ran faster than girls. Even if she tried her best to keep up with the speed of the main group, she would quickly fall far behind as long as she slowed down a little.
“Manman, if you’re tired, go rest.” Su Tang was panting from exhaustion, but she did not forget to care about Shi Man.
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Tang’s shoulder was patted. She turned her head and saw Shi Man beside her with a normal expression. She couldn’t help but open her mouth in surprise.
“You’re the one who should rest, right?” Shi Man smiled mockingly and raised her eyebrows to signal her to look at the students beside the instructor. “Some have already given up. Why are you still insisting?”
“I’m the class monitor.” Su Tang’s heart was beating so fast that it was difficult to breathe, but Shi Man was still persevering. How could she give up halfway?
“Oh.” Shi Man could not understand her sense of mission. She had already advised her, but Su Tang did not listen, so there was no need for her to care.
Shi Man followed behind the main group easily. She sniffed the fresh air in the forest and narrowed her eyes in enjoyment.
Compared to the rich life in the city, she was indeed more adapted to this demonic training that felt like a return to her natural environment.
Seeing that the thousand-meter mission was about to be completed, Shi Man was regretting that she could not continue when a muffled sound suddenly came from behind, followed by the cries of the students nearby.
She had a bad feeling. She turned around and saw Su Tang lying on the ground in a sorry state. Mud splashed on her face, and she looked like an abandoned cat in the rain.
