Chapter 137

Running is one of Xiao Qi's favorite sports now. ViiSiit novelbi/n(.)c/(o)m for latest novels

It feels exhilarating.

Although there are more people on the playground at this moment.

But Enhua University is really vast. This is just one of the playgrounds, and it's as long as the track in Lvshan City's gymnasium. It's a standard track with a slightly soft surface that feels comfortable to run on. Xiao Qi thinks she should buy two more pairs of specialized running shoes.

After all, she will be running a marathon next, and it wouldn't be good to ruin one or two pairs of shoes without proper practice.

And during the race, she can't wear new shoes; she needs to adapt first.

Running among the crowd, Xiao Qi finds it easy to maintain a certain pace. She can even run while checking her interface, where she sees the money she earned. Yesterday, she withdrew some to buy a car, and she has over 110,000 yuan left.

She used her father's bank card to pay the tuition fee.

There's still over 10,000 yuan left in the bank card.

Currently, she is just studying at school, so she has enough money to spend.

In terms of skills, she sees that her calligraphy has become expert-level. In terms of physical fitness, she possesses the strength of a strong human, as well as the jumping power of a panda, the endurance of a donkey, and her long-distance running ability has reached the beginner level plus. Xiao Qi is pleasantly surprised to see the extra plus sign. This is not something bestowed by the system but the result of her consistent running practice during this period.

It shows that as long as she works hard and perseveres, she can make progress too.

Feeling even more invigorated by these accomplishments, Xiao Qi runs more freely. Enhua University is flat, and the wind is strong. Some students struggle with their breathing and start coughing due to the wind, but Xiao Qi pays close attention to the coordination of her breathing and running.

After finishing a lap, she stands tall and spirited. Besides a slightly flushed face, she doesn't feel any fatigue. After all, this lap is just a small beginning for Xiao Qi, as if she has just warmed up.

However, half of the students in her class are already lying on the grass, most of them with flushed faces and weak legs.

Her three roommates are not doing any better. Compared to them, Wei Cheng is slightly better, but he's still hunched over, breathing heavily, looking exhausted.

Gu Yunshu's face is pale, and she sits directly on the ground.

Chen Mier leans against something.

So Xiao Qi, who has no problems at all, appears out of place.

Instructor Zhang looks at her with curiosity.

He walks over and asks, "Do you usually have running training?"

Before Xiao Qi could answer, Chen Mier, who is quick with her words, interrupts, "Instructor, Xiao Qi is going to run in this year's Meng City Marathon. She has been running regularly."

Zhang Instructor even felt a sense of familiarity, similar to the soldiers he had seen during his time in the military.

Before coming here, their team was mentally prepared. After all, Enhua University was known for being attended by children from wealthy families.

Surely the students would be pampered.

However, they were also told that the purpose of military training was to eliminate the students' bad habits.

They didn't intend to go easy on them, but they thought it would be quite unbearable. After all, they had trained freshmen from various schools before, and as an instructor, Zhang could discern the differences. The higher the ranking of the school, the more self-disciplined the students, while those from schools with lower admission requirements tended to be more lax.

This is not directed at any individual, but a feeling shared by a large group. It is undeniable that the college entrance examination (gaokao) is very fair.

Regarding Enhua University, a private university, they were also well-prepared. Each student had a serious expression, ready to make a strong impression from the first day. This was based on past experiences, as if they didn't establish authority on the first day, it would be impossible to control them in the following days.

Therefore, they strictly followed the training methods used for new recruits, without any leniency.

Watching these fresh-faced university students crying and howling, collapsing after running a lap on the track, one couldn't help but shake their head.

If this is how college students are, it's hard to rely on them for the future of our country...

In terms of academic knowledge, it's uncertain whether getting into Enhua University is reliable.

In terms of physical fitness, it's just average. Not to mention defending the country on the battlefield, taking care of themselves would probably be challenging enough.

In any case, there were plenty of instructors who were discontented.

They were regular fourth-year students from the National Defense Military Academy, and being instructors was just one of their assignments. They had knowledge, open minds, and strong bodies. Therefore, when they saw these freshmen, they could only shake their heads in disappointment.

Their main job was to train the students well during this one-week military training.

However, Zhang Tianwei didn't expect that there would be a female student in his class who performed exceptionally well, not falling behind at all compared to their previous batches of freshmen. But it was only the first morning, so he didn't say much and decided to observe her more.

Therefore, strict training remained the priority, with only a short break in between, and then they continued with queue training, marching. Zhang Tianwei himself was drenched in sweat, and the freshmen were in no better condition. They didn't dare to show any signs of distraction or make any unnecessary movements, but their postures were already unsteady, as if they could collapse at any moment.

At this moment, Xiao Qi still maintained an upright posture, thanks to what she had learned from her fitness coach. The coach didn't like her hunching her back and slouching, so she was required to maintain an upright stance every day. Now, whenever she stood, Xiao Qi subconsciously lifted her head and straightened her chest.

So, the demands of the instructors were not difficult for her.

Moreover, with continuous marching, turning left and right, even marching in place, the money in the interface kept increasing. Xiao Qi found it very motivating, feeling that it was not boring at all. It was more like earning points in a game, just like grinding low-level monsters in a newbie village, very easy.

At this time, something happened to the English major group. Wu Xinyue, the English major goddess and popular influencer on TikTok, fainted from heatstroke and was assisted away. With her distinctive long, flowing hair, she was easily recognizable.

Xiao Qi thought to herself that it was fortunate she had short hair. If she also had that long, flowing hair, she would probably have also suffered from heatstroke...
