Under the blazing sun, noon is the time when the sunlight is at its most intense.
To everyone's surprise, after lunch, Qian Yuelong returned to the playground and joined the group that hadn't finished running the laps without Wei Ming's instructions.
Unlike the others who were exhausted, Qian Yuelong not only ran with ease, but also kindly reached out to help a student who was kneeling down.
The student, helped up by Qian Yuelong, looked up at Qian Yuelong's retreating figure in just a few seconds, something flashed in his eyes, he clenched his fists again, raised his trembling knees, and continued to grit his teeth and move forward.
[Beep - Envy level +1, Growth Task (Seven) Progress: 25/50]
Besides her, the last student in Elite Class 3 also attracted a lot of hatred.
Qian Yuelong's gaze swept over the teachers on duty outside the track circle, carrying a hint of regret that was hard to understand, and it was unclear what she was regretting.
After another lap, Qian Yuelong went from brisk walking to a real jog.
Wei Ming looked at Qian Yuelong, who had completely adapted to the gravity track, and called her to stop.
"Qian Yuelong, stop now. You don't need to run anymore. You've already passed the beginner training perfectly."
Qian Yuelong paused and glanced at Hu Liena, who was panting heavily and struggling in the gravity swamp.
To conserve her energy, Hu Liena nodded slightly to Qian Yuelong, who was looking over. Qian Yuelong paused, and the suppressed Heavenly Evolution Technique began to spin again.
"Okay, Teacher Wei."
Without using soul power or deliberately mobilizing spiritual power, Qian Yuelong, with the black face of the six-ring Soul Emperor, easily walked out of the range of his gravity soul skill.
The Soul Emperor-level teacher turned his head to look at the students swaying in the center of the gravity swamp, then at Qian Yuelong's light and agile back, before coldly withdrawing his gaze and focusing on the students who had made great progress compared to the previous two days, a look of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.
Yes, that's what a normal student should be like.
Wei Ming glanced at the next student, who was still some distance from the starting line, and asked Qian Yuelong, who was approaching, with a double meaning: "What do you think of the talent of the students in Class 3?"
Qian Yuelong looked up: "Hmm?"
"You should be able to tell by now that at least ten of these kids have already practiced the Body Tempering Technique. But not all of them." Wei Ming looked at the students who still had at least five laps left to run but were still gritting their teeth and persevering, his eyes filled with an almost cruel indifference.
Sometimes, putting in effort doesn't guarantee a corresponding reward.
Considering the worst-case scenario, it could be that all your efforts will be in vain.
Qian Yuelong followed Wei Ming's gaze and saw the students who had fallen and gotten up again and again, even when they were in pain and tired and cried, but still persevered. Her eyes flickered slightly.
indeed.
Although they all entered the same class and gradually adapted to the rhythm through high-intensity training in the introductory stage, some people still lost at the starting line.
There is an introductory stage to body training methods, which takes time.
Even those with exceptional talent, having established a strong physique, need three to five days to master the basics. Thorough understanding requires even longer, ranging from two months to a month.
If I remember correctly, Wei Ming said at the beginning that the academy would hold an elite class quota challenge every two months.
Regardless of whether they are new or returning students, all students in the academy are required to participate in the competition once it begins, and each student has one chance to take on the challenge.
Even a fool would think that these freshmen, who had just entered the academy, were definitely the number one challenge target for students in other regular classes.
When it comes to your future prospects, no one will let you off the hook just because you're a freshman.
Therefore, they were already far behind their peers or younger Soul Masters from the very beginning.
This is the harsh reality.
“The best teaching method for you next is to divide the students into two groups based on the current situation, removing those who have fallen behind from the elite class and keeping only the true elites,” Wei Ming said to Qian Yuelong.
Qian Yuelong sighed silently in her heart, and said calmly, "That's only natural. However, if they are divided into classes right after completing their introductory training, it will dampen everyone's enthusiasm for cultivation. It would be better to wait for the results of the quota challenge in a little over a month."
"Whether they are in the elite class or not, they will all practice the body tempering method. You just asked me about their talent, and my answer is that after they have practiced the body tempering method, the results will naturally be revealed in the quota challenge."
A satisfied smile appeared on Wei Ming's solemn face as he nodded and said, "That's right, this is actually the best approach. Now that we've recruited students, we'll be responsible for those who choose to trust us."
Qian Yuelong looked at Wei Ming, who had a smile on his face, and said helplessly, "Are you testing me?" Teaching her how to become a qualified decision-maker?
Wei Ming smiled slightly: "Yes, Holy Maiden. Although that person won't interfere with your life at the academy, I have received orders to appropriately guide you in understanding more about how to conduct yourself in society."
Although it seems that this person doesn't need guidance and has their own unique insights.
Comprehensive and rational.
Is it no wonder he's a prodigy? He sees things so clearly at such a young age.
Wei Ming answered Qian Yuelong using the method of "forcing the sound into the line".
Qian Yuelong's eyes twitched slightly, but she remained silent.
The day passed in a flash.
Students were scattered at varying distances on playground number 2.
Some sat cross-legged, entering a meditative state to recover their strength through cultivation; some, having completed all the laps and feeling completely free of debt, lay sprawled on the ground, while others were still struggling in the hell of running laps.
But compared to the miserable days before, today, not a single student in Class 3 was absent.
The sky had completely darkened, and it was almost midnight.
Now, the total number of laps owed by the students in Elite Class 3 has been collected in the same amount for that day.
Standing on the high platform, Wei Ming exchanged a glance with the other two teachers who came to help. Then, Wei Ming spoke, attracting the attention of all the students. Amidst their excited or calm expressions, he announced the blue-level and purple-level body tempering methods and asked them to memorize them on the spot.
Each year, there are as many as two or three hundred new students, but only a handful of the body-strengthening methods are correctly copied and placed in the academy's library, making it impossible for everyone to have a copy.
To prevent the leakage of body-strengthening methods, this method is the only way to achieve a certain degree of restriction.
The exhausted group at this moment: "."
They wanted to say they didn't have the extra brainpower or energy, but the temptation to become stronger was too great.
Even those who struggle to move a single finger must straighten up, open their eyes wide, and use their stiff brains to think and remember.
Trainees who emerge from the elite training grounds naturally don't need to memorize it a second time, because they already know it by heart.
It wasn't until late at night that everyone returned to their dormitories under the cover of darkness.
During the day, the first phase of formal training will take place.
—A side note—
(A moment of repentance) I played games a little late today.
