Standing behind Zheng Longhai was a petite and lovely young girl.
"Holy crap! What an adorable little girl!" Meng Feifei exclaimed in surprise.
Hua Yingwen's face flushed red: "...Could you please not be so loud? People can hear us! You're not ashamed, but we are!"
Fang Wu looked at the petite girl, thought carefully for a moment, and said, "I remember her. She was also a contestant in our competition, but I don't think she made it into the top sixteen. I think she was from Duhua University, and her name was... Tong Yi?"
Truman nodded: "Yes, I have her information. She was the top seed from Duhua University. Although she surrendered to the White Beast in the competition, she is undoubtedly a genius girl with strong abilities. Speaking of which, she is also the niece of the head of the Su family in the capital, so her background is also very powerful."
Linnaeus's expression turned extremely serious.
Goodness...
This is going to be a real mess!
The members of the Five Elements Society have actually become members of the Dark Moon Squad!
Are you kidding me?!
Not far away, Mu Xun's calm eyes also revealed a hint of doubt.
He believed that the Dark Moon organization's vetting process should be very rigorous.
Why would they allow a member of the Five Elements Society to join?
Tong Yi then bowed slightly to Lin Nai and the others, and said politely, "Hello... I am Tong Yi, a student at Du Hua University. Please take care of me."
Her soft, sweet tone and charming voice immediately caught the attention of certain perverts.
"Okay, okay, I'll definitely take care of you..." Meng Feifei grinned foolishly.
Hua Yingwen, who was standing next to her, rolled her eyes.
Lin Nai thought to herself, "Goodness, this is completely different from the strange attitude I had when we met before. Even the tone of his voice has changed, and his eyes and expression are completely different. It's like he's become a completely different person."
But no matter what, she is a member of the Five Elements Society.
It's impossible for him to be teammates with a member of the Five Elements Society in the future.
Otherwise, if you can't even trust your own teammates when you're on a mission, what's the point of playing the game?
Lin Nai thought to herself, "It seems I'll have to have a serious talk with Zheng Longhai and Commander Sun in private later, and find out exactly what happened..."
Zheng Longhai stood in front of everyone and rambled on with a bunch of empty platitudes.
It's nothing more than the same rhetoric used by school leaders on the podium at the beginning of the school year.
After rambling on for a while, Zheng Longhai finally began to speak:
"Because some of you were attacked yesterday and your injuries haven't healed yet, we won't be arranging any high-intensity training for you today, just some warm-up activities."
"You are members of the Dark Moon Class 93. From today onwards, you will be trained to become the sharpest blade of humanity! In the future war between humanity and the demon race, you will play a crucial role!"
"You will see many of the inner workings of this world, come into contact with the true rules of this world on many levels, and witness the darkest and dirtiest aspects of this world!"
"You will see many, many things that are completely different from what you expected and will shatter your worldview!"
"Now, I'll appoint the captain of your team."
"Based on the results of the previous competition and the discussions among our leaders, the captain of the 93rd Dark Moon Squad will be Lin Nai for the time being, and the vice captain will be Mu Xun for the time being."
"Does anyone have any objections?"
Zheng Longhai's gaze swept over everyone.
No one spoke.
Obviously, with these two as captain and vice-captain, no one can say anything.
“Very good, then let’s begin the warm-up exercises!” Zheng Longhai’s eyes flashed with a cold light: “There is a set of weighted tactical clothing in front of you.” He pointed to the twelve piles of neatly folded clothes on the ground: “Put on this set of clothing and run a lap around the mountain forest outside the base along the prescribed route, and that’s it.”
"The prescribed route has been sent to you via the system map."
"During the journey, all items that can increase status buffs are prohibited!"
"Anyone who can return to base before midnight is considered qualified."
"Those who don't pass will receive a special reward tomorrow morning—a meal I'll cook for you myself!"
“My cooking skills are not as good as Old Qian’s in the kitchen, so you’d better think it over.”
Zheng Longhai's eyes gleamed: "Now, the cross-country warm-up officially begins!"
After saying this, Zheng Longhai and the other two instructors turned and left.
Lin Nai's attention was still on Tong Yi, lost in thought.
Meng Feifei nudged him from the side: "Nai-ge, what's wrong?"
Lin Nai shook her head and didn't say anything.
Fang Wu was the first to step forward and pick up a weighted suit from the ground.
The moment Fang Wu picked it up, he was stunned, and a look of confusion immediately appeared on his face.
"How is Fang Wu?" Hua Yingwen asked anxiously, "Is he very heavy?"
Everyone felt that although Zheng Longhai said it was just a "warm-up," judging from his words, it definitely wouldn't be that simple.
"It's not heavy..." Fang Wu scratched his head. "This weighted suit weighs less than fifty kilograms, right? It's less than the weight I usually carry..."
Fifty kilograms would be quite a burden for an average person to carry around.
But for top players like Fang Wu in the national competition, such a small amount of weight is practically non-existent.
"What?" Meng Feifei also stepped forward and picked up a weighted suit as well.
"Yeah, it's really too light." Meng Feifei curled her lips: "This weight wouldn't be difficult even for a Soul Gunner like me, let alone you martial artists. Who is Chief Zheng looking down on?"
"Maybe they really just want us to warm up casually on the first day." Hua Lingze smiled, picked up a weighted suit and put it on: "Alright, let's get going."
Everyone came up, picked up their respective loadout suits, put them on, and then left the base following the route shown on the system map.
Linna had also gotten dressed and was at the back of the group.
His gaze remained fixed on Tong Yi.
Today is the first day.
'Cross-country running with weights is my forte.'
'Sun Shuai has been at this training base these past few days. I have to get first place; I can't let Sun Shuai down!'
Fang Wu clenched his fists, thinking to himself, put on his clothes, checked his shoelaces, and then was the first to rush into the forest.
However, as soon as he took his first step forward, Fang Wu immediately felt a weight as heavy as Mount Tai pressing down on his body!
"ah!--"
Fang Wu stumbled forward a few steps and fell to his knees.
"???"
Lu Xiaoda asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"No...something's not right..." Fang Wu gritted his teeth: "It's so heavy!"
