Chapter 1137: Arriving at the Training Ground


They arrived at the designated training ground at half-past nine.


The freshmen who were still complaining just now alighted from the bus. Although they dreaded going for military training, they couldn’t hide their excitement about starting their university life.


Everyone gathered together and began chit-chatting, filled with curiosity about the training ground.


They began pointing at the soldiers who were dressed in impeccable military uniforms and strutting around, after which they started gossiping about the soldiers openly with enthusiasm. All of the soldiers were good looking and muscular.


The girls even began swooning over the soldiers.


Ye Feiyu held onto Wen Xinya’s hand and began babbling continuously. “Xinya, what am I supposed to do? he soldiers here are all so handsome, tall and muscular. They give me such a strong sense of security!”


Wen Xinya was speechless, though she did find them to be handsome. “Aren’t you going to complain about being denied access to the internet and your games?”


Ye Feiyu giggled and said, “How can I be in the mood to play games when there are hunks to ogle at?”


Wen Xinya chastised in her head, Who was the one looking so devastated and kept complaining about being unable to play games?


Ye Feiyu sighed and said, “But the conditions here are really harsh.”


Wen Xinya agreed with her. There were two metal houses apart from a few old buildings. Clearly, the metal houses were newly built and meant to accommodate military training.


However, she heard that the temperatures inside the metal houses were extremely cold during winter and extremely hot during summer.


She wondered if Xu Zhenyu had ever lived in metal houses before.


After the military training counselors had a discussion with the soldiers, one of the uniformed soldiers entered with the freshmen who acted as if they were there for a tour. He then ushered them to their rooms.


The living conditions in the training ground were harsh and the houses were old. To the disappointment of the freshmen, there were only four floors and the rectangular rooms were all identical in terms of layout.


They were greeted with the sight of bunk beds and nothing else.


One of the girls shrieked. “Are you kidding me? How do people even live here? We’re here for military training, not to become prisoners.”


“The living conditions here are terrible! There aren’t any washrooms in here at all. Are we supposed to share a common toilet?”


“There aren’t any tables that we can leave our things on, either. This can’t be it. Is this really how soldiers live? Are they not just making life hard for us freshmen on purpose?”


The counselor was Miss Mu, an ordinary-looking woman who appeared to be in her late twenties. She said sternly, “You’re right. Since you’re here, you may just treat yourselves as prisoners. Buck up and push yourselves through these four weeks of training.”


The counselor’s austerity frightened the freshmen.


Miss Mu continued, “There is a washroom on every floor and a common bathroom on the first floor. I’ve already informed the commanders to sh.e.l.l out two bathrooms for the girls. This is the best I can do for you.”


“That’s considered the best…” one of the freshmen murmured indignantly.


Miss Mu was not bothered at all. Most of the students definitely came from affluent families since they could afford the expensive school fees at Capital University. Since they had been spoiled rotten, it was only understandable that they would complain about hards.h.i.+p.


However, she was certain that they would be too tired to even complain in another few days.


Hence, Miss Mu said, “Don’t complain about the living conditions here. The soldiers at the base camps have all been through these. They train all day, once each in the morning, afternoon and evening. After the arduous training that expends all their energy, they take a shower and go to bed immediately. Do you think they live like you pampered girls? Do you think they put on facial masks every night and put their cosmetics all over the table?”


Miss Mu’s words made them turn red and speechless. Yet, there was nothing they could say to defend themselves.


Wen Xinya scanned her surroundings in the room and could not help but sigh. Even she did not expect the living conditions of soldiers to be this harsh and simple.


She began to wonder, How did the spoiled Xu-er even manage to cope with such poor living conditions? He had to share a dorm and share his food with everyone…


Noticing that they had stopped complaining, Miss Mu said, “We’re only going to train you guys for a month. Regardless of how tough it may be, it’s only going to last for a month. Think about our nation’s soldiers, they’re training hard and risking their lives for his nation. Don’t they have it tougher than you guys?”


Everyone felt ashamed after hearing her words.


They were rather affected after Miss Mu juxtaposed them against the soldiers, and hence had a slight change in mindset.


Miss Mu nodded and thought to herself, These freshmen may be a little spoiled, but they do have a sense of awareness…


At this moment, a soldier walked towards them and said, “Counselor Mu, the leader wants us to inform you guys that we’ll be gathering at the canteen at ten. Please get everything settled and a.s.semble at the canteen before ten.”


The soldier stood straight and spoke in an austere tone.


“Are you serious? Ten? It’s already 9:45 now. How are we supposed to get ready in 15 minutes? They’re just out to make life hard for us, aren’t they?”


“We’re already exhausted from the journey and yet, we have to gather even before we can catch our breaths. They’re out to kill us.”


“The commander really thinks we’re his soldiers.”


Everyone began complaining.


Miss Li said sternly, “It’s going to be a brief meeting. The military training will begin proper tomorrow. After the meeting, you’ll have plenty of time to rest. It’s 9:47 now. You have 13 minutes left. Instead of complaining, why don’t you hurry up and pack your things? Don’t think it’s okay to be late. Since you’re here you have to treat yourselves like soldiers.”


Miss Mu s.h.i.+fted her gaze onto the students who were grabbing their things in the dorm.


At last, Wen Xinya stopped in her tracks and a look of satisfaction formed on her face.


The cla.s.s president, vice cla.s.s president, and team leader helped the students settle into the dorm while the counselor gave out instructions. Despite being full of complaints, the characters of the students were not too bad. Hence, Miss Mu did not have to nag at them.
