Chapter 572: Punishment

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The instructor’s expression darkened.

What he hated the most in his life was soldiers who gave up halfway. They were no different from deserters!

“Get up.” He stood at Du Yan’s feet, his voice unbelievably cold.

Du Yan couldn’t help but shiver. She struggled to get up from the ground and complained, “Instructor, I really can’t run anymore! It’s all because of Shi Man that our running rhythm was disrupted. Otherwise, I could have run three kilometers!”

The instructor looked at her coldly and said with a serious expression, “You can’t finish running yourself. If you want to stay on the ground and not leave, what has it got to do with others?”

Du Yan pouted aggrievedly, but she didn’t care.

She turned to look at the loose and messy square formation and started to scold Shi Man unhappily. “Instructor, it’s all because of her that we performed abnormally today. Why don’t you just deduct their credits? They didn’t dress according to the rules and shouldn’t have participated in training!”

The instructor’s face was ashen, but considering the relationship between the Du family and the Tong family, he took a deep breath and barely held back his anger.

They finally finished running this round. When they passed by the instructor again, indeed, most of them were about to collapse.

Du Yan took the opportunity to wheedle at the instructor. “Good instructor, let us rest for a while before running. You know that we won’t enter the army after graduation and will only be the corresponding civil servants. That’s why the school will reduce the burden of our training appropriately. Why must you let us run all three kilometers in one go?”

What she said was actually reasonable. Some instructors in the school did the same.

They would not be too strict with these students, but they could not condone everything!

“No way!”

The instructor’s expression was already very ugly, but with Du Yan taking the lead, the remaining students actually slacked off. The bolder ones directly surrounded them, and the timid ones or those who wanted to watch stopped not far away.

In the end, Shi Man was the only one who insisted on running on the track.

Du Yan saw that there were so many students around her and immediately became more confident. “Instructor, why don’t we forget about this warm-up exercise? Aren’t there other activities next? If the students can’t hold on, won’t it delay the training afterwards?”

They still had to go back to the professional course. They did not train all day. The time they could participate in training every week was really limited, but the time for the physical fitness test was fixed.

If they did not finish learning the other subjects before the exam, the instructor would not be able to explain himself in front of the principal.

Moreover, there was also the principal’s beloved youngest daughter here.

The instructor sighed deeply and saw the burning gaze and sweat of the principal’s daughter. In the end, he chose to compromise.

His expression relaxed. Just as he was about to say a few soft words, a strong wind suddenly whistled past behind him.

The cold wind suddenly attacked the back of his sweating head, instantly waking him up.

He was the instructor of the Capital Sports School and also the instructor of the soldiers in the army. How could he really do such a thing?

Although these students did not have to undergo regular training like the army, the current training standards had already been lowered. If it was lowered again, they would still not be able to pass the exam at the end of the semester!

The instructor quickly put on his military cap and glanced coldly at all the students of Class S. “Everyone, form a phalanx immediately and continue running forward! Whoever speaks will be punished to run an additional kilometer! Increase in number!”

The wailing continued on the training ground. The instructor did not hesitate. After a few people were punished, the students hurriedly shut their mouths in fear.

After they slowly ran three kilometers at the speed of a turtle, Shi Man had already run nine kilometers.

She stood in the shade and looked expressionlessly at this group of students who were so tired that they could not even sit down. She only felt amused.

If the future soldiers of the country were all like this, their country would have long been razed to the ground by a powerful country!

When Du Yan, Tong Su, and the others saw that Shi Man was still calm and composed, they immediately gritted their teeth.

Du Yan was the one who led the strike just now, so the instructor punished her to run two kilometers more.

What could she do? She could only grit her teeth and persevere. If she couldn’t run anymore, she would walk. In the beginning, she couldn’t stop complaining, but later on, she actually developed some fighting spirit.

Seeing that the other students had already begun the next training, she suddenly hardened her heart and increased her speed again. Even though she spent a lot of effort and almost fell, she still completed the mission.

“Not bad.” Shi Man stood in front of her with a smile. Her lowered eyes landed on the top of her head, and there was actually some admiration in them.

Du Yan was so tired that she bent down and panted so hard that she couldn’t straighten her upper body. When she finally caught her breath and wanted to mock her, the pair of long legs standing in front of her actually changed directions and left.

Du Yan was furious!

This damn Shi Man actually insisted on riding on her head to show off!
