Tu Ran nodded. "Then how can I communicate with you remotely in the future? Does the training base have an external communication device?"
"Of course, I'll find one for you tomorrow." Ai Meigui agreed generously.
Tu Ran thanked him.
It was getting late, so they turned off the lights and went back to their beds to sleep.
At six o'clock the next morning, a sharp and piercing bell rang throughout the training ground, and everyone gathered for morning training.
First I ran around the training ground.
This training ground was the yellow land where Tu Ran took an hour to reach the finish line from the edge yesterday. After running the entire course in the morning and not being able to use her supernatural powers, Tu Ran was so tired that she couldn't even straighten her back.
Ai Meigui even sat directly on the ground, out of breath, but that did not hinder her strong sense of responsibility as an "old man" who had arrived two days earlier than Tu Ran to explain to the newcomers, "A few... days ago... we only ran back and forth, but today... we actually went around in a circle. I don't know what we will do tomorrow... You, you, you... how did you recover so quickly?!"
Ai Meigui looked up at Tu Ran who was standing in front of her, her mouth wide open in shock. Originally, Tu Ran's face was as red as hers, she was so tired that she couldn't straighten her back, and she was panting. But now, Tu Ran stood straight, her face was no longer red, she was no longer panting, and she was in the mood to observe the scenery, as if she was not the one who was exhausted just now.
"I have a relatively good physique," Tu Ran changed the subject, "When can we eat?"
She was very hungry, and her supernatural powers would consume a lot of energy while repairing her body.
"Right away, we can have dinner when everyone comes back." Ai Meigui stood up with the help of Tu Ran's hand and leaned on Tu Ran.
Tu Ran did not refuse. He kept holding her waist with one hand to support her, staring at the front, hoping that the people behind would run faster.
Half an hour later, everyone came back and the cafeteria opened for lunch. Tu Ran almost dragged Ai Meigui to the cafeteria.
She ordered a lot of food, almost twice as much as Rose.
Ai Meigui looked at the food on her plate and hesitated for several times, but finally reminded her: "You must finish the food here, and don't waste it."
Tu Ran nodded, returned to the dining table, and hurried to eat, because Ai Meigui said that they only had twenty minutes to eat.
After dinner, we have to continue training.
Tu Ran, who used to complain about military training, never expected that one day he would join the army and receive ultra-high-intensity physical training.
The training lasted for five days. Not only did she not get worn out, but she became more and more adapted to it. In the end, she even felt like a fish in water.
On the sixth day, the initial physical training was completed, and some people who did not meet the physical fitness requirements were screened out and sent to other departments. Only those who were physically strong and able to proceed to the next step of training were left.
Today is the day that Ye Hongci comes to visit the reserve students.
Ye Hongci is the Chief Ye that everyone talks about and that Tu Ran has heard of countless times. She is the most respected chief in the entire Harnden Galaxy. She once became famous in a star-grabbing battle on Jiuzhou Star. Because of her bravery, Jiuzhou Star was not reduced to a meal by the beasts. Because of her foresight, Desolate Star No. 4 no longer appears in the Harnden Galaxy.
Tu Ran, wearing a dark green training suit, sat on small stools with a group of reserve students, forming a circle. The empty space in the middle was where Ye Hongci would speak later. Tu Ran sat in the first row.
The seats in the first row were the most popular ones at this time, as everyone wanted to be closer to Ye Hongci. Tu Ran originally wanted to just sit at the back and watch from a distance. She did not have much awe for the so-called God of War. She did not live in this galaxy and could not feel the fanatical feelings of the people in this galaxy towards Ye Hongci.
Unfortunately, she wanted to sit in the back, but Ai Meigui didn't.
Ye Hongci is her role model, so of course she has to look up to him from the closest position; and Tu Ran is her good friend, so how could she abandon her friend?
So she pulled and dragged, and with her small stature but great explosive power, she made a way among the group of two-meter-tall men and one-meter-eight girls, and pulled Tu Ran into the crowded first row, sitting next to her.
Ai Meigui pulled the loose ponytail on the left side, then this side and the right side, then took out a small mirror from her bosom, looked at her appearance, and made sure there was nothing inappropriate. She put the mirror back, placed her hands flat on her knees, straightened her back, looked straight ahead, and had a serious expression.
It was rare to see such a serious expression on her face. At least, Tu Ran had never seen it in so many days.
As if sensing Tu Ran's doubts, Ai Meigui rolled her eyes and confirmed that Ye Hongci had not arrived yet. She immediately leaned over to Tu Ran's ear, covered her mouth, and said quickly, "Chief Ye is a very serious person. He dislikes those who are out of tune the most. I want to leave a good impression on Chief Ye."
After saying this, she resumed her steady and dignified demeanor.
Tu Ran was speechless for a moment. The power of role models is indeed strong.
She waited silently for the arrival of the so-called Chief Ye.
Ten minutes later, a car drove in from the entrance, with yellow soil scattered at the rear of the car, and stopped fifty meters away from them.
Two people got out of the car. The one walking in front was a woman wearing a black combat uniform. Her hair was gray and very short, not messy, neat and capable. Her skin was fair, and there were traces of time in the corners of her eyes. Her eyes were very gentle, which was something Tu Ran had not expected.
From the descriptions given by other people, she subconsciously thought that this person would be a cold, serious and unsmiling person.
But at this moment, Ye Hongci greeted everyone with a smile, without any airs as a leader, and looked lovingly at all the reserve students who came to greet her.
Behind her followed a very capable woman, who met Tu Ran's original imagination of Ye Hongci: cold and ruthless, with a frosty face, and despised everything.
"She is Ye Hongci's adopted daughter, her name is Tang Ying. She is very powerful. She rushed out with the injured Chief Ye from the encirclement of the beasts. If it weren't for her, Chief Ye would probably... Alas."
It can be seen that Ai Meigui admires and envies Tang Ying.
Ye Hongci walked to the center of the crowd, while Tang Ying stood upright on the outskirts of the crowd guarding Ye Hongci.
"Children, I am Ye Hongci. I am very happy to see you all here. I am very happy that you are willing to join my team."
"It is our honor to join Commander Ye's team!" Ai Meigui shouted at the top of her voice, and many people immediately echoed her.
Tu Ran: You have already forgotten the word steady, right? Ye Hongci looked at these people and smiled slightly. She continued until everyone quieted down, "I also want to congratulate everyone for passing the initial physical selection. After that, everyone will go through more rigorous selections. I wish everyone can pass."
