Chapter 1467: Chapter 1467

"I don’t want to either, mainly because our instructor is too cold-blooded."

Chen Cang sighed and said discontentedly, "I haven’t told you, Mo Hongsheng is my roommate; he sleeps on the bunk above me."

"Uh... does that matter?"

Tang Ming looked confused.

"Of course it matters. During training today, Mo Hongsheng seemed to be unwell and was scolded to tears while standing at attention."

Chen Cang shook his head sympathetically, "You should know, Mo Hongsheng is such a proud and arrogant person, yet he was scolded to tears. I couldn’t take it."

"And then you hit the instructor?"

Tang Ming looked at Chen Cang oddly, surprised that this guy stood up for his friend.

"I originally intended to reason with him, but he dared to lay hands on me. That’s intolerable, so I gave him a beating."

Chen Cang smiled awkwardly and said shyly, "Actually, I didn’t want to bully anyone; he was just too much."

"Dude, no matter how much he crossed the line, you’re still a student. Should you really resort to violence?"

Tang Ming rolled his eyes at Chen Cang speechlessly, "And then what happened?"

"Later, the instructor reported it to the school, and I was reprimanded. But I secretly warned him, showing him my true strength, telling him if I got expelled, I’d pester him daily."

Chen Cang looked at Tang Ming mischievously, saying proudly, "Can you believe it, the instructor was actually scared by me. Plus, with Mo Hongsheng pretending to faint, the instructor got terrified and obediently went to the school to forgive my behavior."

"You and Mo Hongsheng together are really a handful."

Tang Ming’s mouth twitched, no wonder the school didn’t expel Chen Cang, since he threatened people behind the scenes.

"It’s not too bad! Although the matter was settled, the instructor put me on a blacklist, and now I’m excused from military training, saying they’d just give me a grade later."

Chen Cang said proudly while eating an ice pop, "Turns out I don’t have to do military training; it’s that simple, hahaha, awesome."

Tang Ming rolled his eyes at Chen Cang, "If the instructor doesn’t give you a grade before he leaves, you’ll never graduate."

"I... didn’t think of that."

Chen Cang’s face changed slightly, and he said resentfully, "I’ll go talk to him properly later. If he dares to screw me over, I’ll chase him to the ends of the earth."

Tang Ming rolled his eyes, secretly sympathizing with the instructor who offended Chen Cang.

"Alright, alright, anyway, I don’t need to do military training now; I’m off to give ice pops to Xiao Li and the others. You train well."

Chen Cang smiled, got up, and left with the remaining popsicles.

Just then, Wu Xiong walked up behind Tang Ming and asked uncertainly, "Do you know that Chen Cang?"

"Uh, we’re high school classmates."

Wu Xiong’s expression changed slightly, he glanced at the other students, and said softly, "Things can be solved by negotiation. Even if he’s a Martial Artist, he shouldn’t resort to violence."

"I’ve already lectured him."

Tang Ming nodded repeatedly.

Wu Xiong rolled his eyes at Tang Ming and explained, "The reason I punished you by making you run laps before was because you made a mistake first; I wasn’t intentionally targeting you."

"I know, don’t worry, I won’t use force, and I can’t beat you anyway."

Tang Ming suddenly realized, understanding that Wu Xiong was worried he might resort to violence.

"That’s good. I can see you’ve probably had special training. I’ll certainly look out for you."

Wu Xiong breathed a sigh of relief and smiled as he promised.

"Thank you, instructor. You don’t need to give me special treatment; I’ll certainly follow the training arrangements obediently."

Tang Ming promised solemnly.

"That’s good, continue training."

Wu Xiong turned stern, looking at the other students, "All stand up, attention, practice in step, one! two! one!"

Tang Ming was very obedient, complying with the military training, not causing any trouble for three straight days.

After several days of military training, everyone was exhausted and would fall asleep immediately upon returning to the dorm, with some not even taking off their clothes. But Tang Ming found it odd that every day after training Hua Yingjie would leave the school and only return in the middle of the night.

Though curious, Tang Ming didn’t pay much attention.

On the third day, Wu Xiong was training the Medical College students in march steps, and Hua Yingjie couldn’t do it right every time, not only failing to reach the standard movements but also affecting others.

Facing this situation, Wu Xiong was very angry. An unstandardized student would affect the entire squad, which made his temper increasingly fiery, and he started to yell.

The other students were also dissatisfied with Hua Yingjie’s behavior which affected team efficiency.

At first, Tang Ming didn’t pay much heed, but as Hua Yingjie’s condition worsened, he started to take it seriously.

Not wanting Hua Yingjie to affect the whole team, Wu Xiong directly pulled Hua Yingjie out for separate training, but Hua Yingjie still couldn’t do the standard movements.

"Are you stupid? Keep your foot parallel to the ground and raise your fist to shoulder height. Is it that hard?"

Wu Xiong was almost exploding with anger.

Hua Yingjie flushed with embarrassment, and without retorting, tried his best to complete the movements, but unfortunately...

Tang Ming finally couldn’t stand it anymore and stepped in front of Wu Xiong, "This student has a problem."

"What problem? Can’t even outperform women, is it his time of the month?"

Wu Xiong shouted irritably.

"Instructor, could you not be so harsh?"

Tang Ming frowned slightly and looked at Hua Yingjie, "How did you get injured?"

Hua Yingjie’s expression changed slightly, biting his lip to endure.

Wu Xiong became curious, looking puzzled at Tang Ming, "He’s just a student; how would he get injured?"

"He won’t say, so I can’t help it, but I’m sure he’s injured."

Tang Ming sighed helplessly, "How about I help heal him, and then you let him train?"

"No way! The parade is in four days, and if he falls behind now, it will affect the whole squad’s participation in the parade."

Wu Xiong shook his head firmly, saying through gritted teeth, "The only solution now is to drop him and immediately adjust the formation."

Tang Ming frowned, unsure, and looked at Hua Yingjie, "Can you skip military training?"

Hua Yingjie stubbornly shook his head.

"Hey, big bear, are these the soldiers you’ve trained?"

At this moment, a rough voice suddenly rang out, followed by the sound of thudding ground.

Looking up, they saw a squad mostly composed of male students marching toward them in neat steps.

Wu Xiong frowned, reached out, and pushed Hua Yingjie towards Tang Ming, "What are you doing over here?"

"I’m here to practice parade drills with my Engineering College students, of course."

The hulking Liu Dewu laughed and turned to shout, "Attention."
