As soon as he said that, the words that were floating in the air surrounded Zhao Rui’s body as though they were alive. Then, they penetrated through Zhao Rui’s skin and into his flesh and bones.

As the words penetrated his body, Zhao Rui couldn’t help but scream in pain. The King of Soldiers’ training space instantly distorted and collapsed.

When Zhao Rui woke up, he found himself sitting on the bed in the dormitory, and his clothes were soaked with cold sweat.

“Brother Zhao, are you not feeling well?”

“Should I send you to the infirmary?”

“Are you tired from the cross-country training this morning?”

Everyone was very concerned about their class monitor.

Zhao Rui, who was sleeping just now, suddenly screamed. Obviously, his roommates were all scared.

“It’s nothing. I just had a nightmare. Don’t worry about it.”

But even if Zhao Rui said so, how could the others not worry?

Chi Heng immediately got out of bed and came to Zhao Rui’s bedside. “Are you really alright? Anyway, there’s no training this afternoon. Don’t force yourself. If you are not fine, let’s go to the infirmary and have a check-up.”

“Are you kidding? I’m really fine. Don’t worry, if I’m not feeling well, I’ll definitely tell everyone.”

Only then did his roommates relax.

Even though the instructor attached great importance to the internal affairs evaluation this time, he still gave sixth team a day off to clean up the dormitory and handle their internal affairs. The new recruits had been undergoing high-intensity training, and it was rare for them to have a good rest.

Zhao Rui’s training in the training space was still continuing.

Hearing the harsh snoring sounds in the dormitory again, Zhao Rui finally let out a sigh of relief.

After all, Zhao Rui couldn’t test the system’s ability in front of his roommates.

At this moment, when Zhao Rui woke up from the system, the pain caused by the words that had seeped into Zhao Rui’s flesh and bones in the training space had already disappeared.

However, he felt an unusual itch under his right armpit. When he raised his arm, he saw a small mole growing under his armpit.

“This mole is the entrance to the storage space. If the host has something to hide, as long as you put it near this mole, the item will be sucked into another space. If the host wants to take it out, you only need to use the mole to retrieve it from the storage space.”

The system’s detailed explanation rang in Zhao Rui’s ears.

He felt like giving it a try.

So he lay on his side and faced the wall. Then he put the pillow under the blanket and moved the pillow under his right armpit with his left hand.

“If I can really store an item in another space, then prove it to me.”

Just as Zhao Rui had this thought, the feeling in his left hand that was holding the pillow suddenly disappeared. There was only a ball of air left in his left hand.

Zhao Rui lifted the blanket and found that the pillow had indeed disappeared!

He had really mastered the ability to hide objects in other dimensions. It was so amazing!

In order not to affect his roommates’ rest, Zhao Rui quietly got off the bed and walked back and forth in the dormitory.

Zhao Rui’s body did not have any strange feeling. The pillow was not stored in Zhao Rui’s body, but was stored in another dimension through the mole.

He returned to the bed and hid under the blanket. He placed his left hand near the mole under his armpit. When Zhao Rui had the thought of taking the pillow back, a pillow immediately appeared under his right shoulder.

Zhao Rui was very excited because he knew that this ability would be very useful in the Military Academy.

..

The next day, the first internal affairs evaluation of the recruits began.

The seniors would randomly check and score the internal affairs of the recruits every day. After a week, the male or female dormitory with the highest total score would each receive a banner of “Best Dormitory”.

Not only He Yingbo, the instructors of the other teams also attached great importance to this assessment.

This was because the soldiers they trained would also have to compete in the future. Whoever received the most honor meant that the instructor had taught them well, and this internal affairs evaluation was the recruits’ first competition.

With the encouragement of their respective instructors, all the recruits were extremely dedicated in managing their internal affairs during this week.

Every time Zhao Rui left the dormitory, he would stand outside the dormitory and carefully observe the inside of the dormitory to see if everything was arranged neatly, if the quilt was folded properly, and if there were any stains on the ground.

A week’s time soon came to an end. It was time for the internal affairs evaluation.

On this day, the sun was shining brightly, and everyone was in high spirits.

All the recruits gathered in the square and listened carefully to the speech of the chief instructor, Kronin. At the end of the speech, the chief instructor would announce the two best dormitory awards for handling their internal affairs.

All the recruits were very expectant, hoping that their dormitories would be selected.

“Time passes very quickly. You recruits have already been in the Military Academy for a month…”

Kronin first reminisced about the various subjects they had undergone since the start of the semester. Then, he began to talk about the glorious and great history of Odin Academy. The contributions of the seniors on the battlefield had turned the tide of the war and made the academy a world-renowned Military Academy. In short, it was something that everyone was already very familiar with.

“Always wasting time on such trivial matters. Hurry up and announce which dormitory is the best.”

Some of the comrades in the sixth team couldn’t help but complain in a low voice.

As the team leader, Zhao Rui immediately glanced at that comrade when he heard the complaints. That recruit didn’t dare to continue complaining.

Over the past month, Zhao Rui had become a good assistant for He Yingbo. Whether it was maintaining discipline or training for a particular subject, Zhao Rui had done very well.

Not only had he won the trust of the instructor, but his comrades in the sixth team also respected him very much. No matter what project he was in, Zhao Rui would always be the first to learn and do it perfectly. In private, he would not show off just because he was the leader, he got along with almost everyone.

The chief instructor’s speech could be said to be impassioned. At the end, waves of warm applause lingered in the campus.

“Uh-huh…” the chief instructor cleared his throat and raised his voice. “Settle down, I will announce the results of this internal affairs evaluation..”
