Now, the eighth group has only one more member than the sixth group. Wei Ziyao is hoping that two more of her people can arrive, then she will definitely win.
Or perhaps they hope Wu Youyou won't appear.
If Wu Youyou returns within the stipulated time, they will have to kneel down and admit defeat to Group Eight.
With only one minute left, this minute was a minute of despair. The members of Group 8 already believed that their group was doomed to lose, and many of them began to resent Wu Youyou.
They believe this team leader has failed in his duty!
At that moment, when almost everyone believed that Xia Nianchan would not return, only Shi Zhan stared intently at the intersection, still hoping for her appearance.
As time flew by, less than 30 seconds remained. Just when Shi Zhan was about to give up, a figure flashed out from the intersection. At the last moment, Wu Youyou appeared at the intersection!
At this moment, Liu Xiaolan, Shi Xingyue, and all the members of Group Eight exclaimed in surprise!
Shi Zhan's heart couldn't help but stir with excitement. At the very least, in Shi Zhan's heart, he was unwilling to see her kneel down and admit defeat to others!
We won!
Liu Xiaolan was terrified. If Wu Youyou really didn't come, then she would be despised by the entire Group Eight!
Thank God, thank Youyou, Liu Xiaolan kept praying!
This is how everyone felt when they saw Wu Youyou.
When Wu Youyou got closer, she was in a very disheveled state.
She saw everyone cheering and jumping for joy, and knew that she had arrived on time.
Great, I finally did it.
She felt her vision gradually darken, and she felt completely exhausted, with no strength left.
As she was losing consciousness, she saw two figures running towards her.
Even with his back injury, Shi Zhan was still one step ahead of Tang Chuxuan.
He quickly pulled Wu Youyou into his arms, seeing that she was covered in injuries and her clothes were torn in several places, and then he noticed the two sandbags tied to her legs.
His heart ached as if it were being pricked by needles.
Tang Chuxuan, who was a step too late, saw her appearance and regretted his choice of training method today.
She could only watch helplessly as Shi Zhan untied the sandbags from her legs and then carried her away.
The entire group of eight didn't shout, but looked at her with heartache.
At this moment, Wu Youyou rose to a higher level in their hearts; she was worthy of the position of group leader.
The moment Wei Ziyao saw her appear, she bit her lower lip so hard it drew blood.
Tang Chuxuan addressed all the attendees and announced,
"The outcome of today's competition is decided. The champion is Group 8, and Group Leader Wu Youyou will receive a spot in the special training group for the top ten."
Everyone in Group 8 was happy for her.
Shi Zhan took Wu Youyou directly to the infirmary.
Upon seeing this, the doctor quickly examined Wu Youyou.
After a series of procedures including inserting an IV drip, disinfection, and injections, she slowly spoke to Shi Zhan.
"She was just exhausted and had a wound infection, but she's fine now. Let her rest."
Shi Zhan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The doctor, with his sharp eyes, also noticed the bloodstains on Shi Zhan's back and frowned as he spoke.
"Young man, is your back injured too?"
"Um!"
"Let me see it right now!"
Shi Zhan then took off his outer garment, revealing his back, which was already badly ulcerated.
The doctor gasped, looking at the crisscrossing wounds on his back, clearly inflicted by a barbed whip.
Who on earth could be so heartless?
The young man before them looked incredibly noble; who would dare to lay such a cruel hand on him?
"Young man, that injury on your back..."
"Doctor, please don't ask any more questions, just treat me."
Shi Zhan casually interrupted the doctor's curiosity.
A doctor paused, then shook his head, saying nothing more, but brought over disinfectant and repair medication. He sighed.
"Your back injury is much more serious than that girl's. You're no longer fit for military training. Okay, I'll get you a medical certificate, take it!"
Shi Zhan didn't speak, his eyes fixed on Wu Youyou lying on the hospital bed.
Seeing how stubborn she was, hurting herself like that just to win?
After treating Shi Zhan and bandaging the wound on his back, the doctor whispered something.
"You can't sweat right now, and your body needs rest. If you get infected again, it could be very troublesome."
"I understand, thank you, doctor."
The doctor shook his head again and walked away.
Shi Zhan sat next to Wu Youyou, but she still hadn't woken up after the IV drip was finished.
He gently touched her cheek and spoke.
"You really went all out to learn marksmanship."
Another half hour passed.
Wu Youyou then woke up, opened her eyes, and saw Shi Zhan sitting next to her.
A slight smile played on her lips.
"Shi Zhan, did you bring me here? We won, didn't we?"
"Um!"
Wu Youyou chuckled softly.
"Thanks!"
Seeing that she had woken up, Shi Zhan asked curiously,
How did you injure yourself like this?
Wu Youyou seemed lost in memories before telling Shi Zhan about what she had experienced.
Upon hearing this, Shi Zhan felt a surge of anger.
Who is it? How dare they hurt her?
"I will definitely find out the truth about this matter, so don't worry!"
At this moment, Song Shaojie, Liu Xiaolan, Shi Xingyue, and others arrived.
After they learned what had happened, they were all furious.
Liu Xiaolan felt even more guilty, and she said in a tearful voice,
"Youyou, it's all my fault. I can't run, and you have to carry the sandbags for me. I really regret giving you the sandbags!"
Seeing her tearful face, Wu Youyou offered words of comfort.
"Xiao Lan, don't blame yourself. I did this for myself. Besides, we won in the end, didn't we?"
Liu Xiaolan ran over, hugged her, and cried as she spoke.
"Youyou, don't do that again. I will try my best to become a better person. I can't always rely on you to protect me!"
"Okay, I believe you!"
Wu Youyou patted her back gently, "It's alright!"
Shi Xingyue was also deeply impressed; Wu Youyou was simply too amazing, and she couldn't help but admire her.
"Let's go to a restaurant for dinner. I've already made a reservation."
When Song Shaojie mentioned food, everyone's stomachs started growling. They had been busy all day and the snacks in their backpacks weren't enough to make a decent meal.
After everyone finished eating outside the school, Wu Youyou and the others went back to their dormitory.
Everyone soaked their feet properly that night; after walking for so long, everyone's feet were covered in blisters.
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
Who is it?
Liu Xiaolan asked.
"Room check!"
A familiar voice reached everyone's ears.
