Chapter 133: The First Level‑Two Support Pack Water Ghost!

To be honest, Liu Xiaotian's training plan for the female soldiers of the Fire Phoenix Women's Special Forces Team is indeed somewhat crazy, even bordering on "cruel".

At 5:30 a. m. they wake up, at 5:45 a. m. they begin morning exercises, with the load increased to twenty kilograms; for the first half month it's five kilometers, after half a month they gradually increase to ten kilometers; after the long run they also add strength training such as the single and double bars, ending at 6:50; they start breakfast at twenty past, at eight o'clock they start the morning training, which consists of strength confrontation and combat training on uneven terrain, lasting three hours without rest.

At 11:00 they rest for ten minutes, then they pair up and each group does twenty minutes of strike‑resistance training, ending at 11:50.

The so‑called strike‑resistance training actually means protecting oneself as much as possible without being allowed to fight back, and the attacking side does not wear boxing gloves, so it's a real punch landing.

For a special forces soldier, strike‑resistance training absolutely comes first.

Because during a mission no one can guarantee they won't be hit by the opponent, even if your combat skill has reached a certain level, it's the same.

Even boxing and other combat sports are the same; without strike‑resistance ability, no matter how skilled one is, it's hard to guarantee a chance of winning.

Just as the saying goes, 'If you often walk by the river, who doesn't get wet shoes?' As long as you stand in the ring facing an opponent, no one can guarantee they won't get beaten.

For special forces on a mission, this is even more true, and even more dangerous.

But in the female soldiers' view, Liu Xiaotian's training is simply a deliberate act of 'messing with people'.

After all, who would choose to endure a beating without fighting back when being hit? Isn't that sick? Nevertheless, whether they theorize or protest, Liu Xiaotian simply ignores them and continues training as he sees fit, doing things his own way.

This is also what makes the eight female soldiers the most angry.

Besides questioning in theory and words, they carry out Liu Xiaotian's orders honestly and obediently, with no one daring to protest through action.

The lessons of the past are right there; if you really make him angry, you'll surely get a beating—who would go looking for trouble for no reason?

Because what they face isn't an opponent who stops after defeating you, but ruthless criminals who want your life.

So, strike‑resistance ability is a capability that must be possessed.

Thus the morning training ends; lunch is at 12:20, and firearms operation training begins at 1:00 p. m.

According to Liu Xiaotian's original training plan, the female soldiers of the Fire Phoenix would only start live‑fire shooting after one month.

After all, shooting also requires solid basic training.

But because time is tight, he can only compress the basic‑operation training into one week.

This way, the eight female soldiers are just 'unlucky'.

During the four‑hour afternoon training, they must conduct three hours of steady sniper‑rifle training.

Liu Xiaotian's training plan adopts a makeshift method: adding weight to the muzzle, and everyone must start from the prone position.

From the first day onward, the eight female soldiers' elbows were worn raw, until calluses formed; the scabs at the wounds never completely came off clean.

Dinner is at 5:30 p. m.; half an hour after dinner, that is, starting at 6:00 p. m., they gather in the simulation training room to begin training on various vehicles, electronic equipment, and so on, ending at 9:00 p. m.

Lights out is at 9:30 p. m.; there are also irregular emergency assemblies. If there is an emergency assembly, their sleep cannot be guaranteed to be eight hours.

But these, Liu Xiaotian seems not to have taken them into account at all; even if someone raises a question, his reply consists of only four characters:

Obey orders!

Nonsense about women needing beauty sleep, nonsense about skin needing care.

Although Liu Xiaotian only forbade them from wearing makeup and did not confiscate their cosmetics, after three days no one ever did a facial mask or applied any skin‑care products at night.

They were exhausted to the point of inability, with huge dark circles plainly visible; not to mention cosmetics, even a plastic surgeon here would be powerless.

After one week, when the eight female soldiers of the Fire Phoenix Women's Special Forces Team lined up again, it was obvious to anyone that compared with when they first arrived, they had undergone a qualitative change.

By this point, Liu Xiaotian finally let out a quiet sigh of relief.

This is the first step of the first‑stage training; if anyone among them cannot hold up mentally, he as the instructor can do nothing but apply to He Zhijun for a replacement.

Especially if someone's body cannot withstand it.

Fortunately, the eight female soldiers selected for the Fire Phoenix passed the first‑stage test both mentally and physically.

The subsequent training, as long as they don't suffer a mental breakdown, will qualify them as competent special forces! Early on the eighth day, after finishing the ten‑kilometer weighted‑run training, Liu Xiaotian did not immediately start equipment training but instead ordered them to fall in.

The eight female soldiers, already basically accustomed to this 'devil‑training mode', were still somewhat unaccustomed to the sudden change of the 'demon instructor'; after exchanging glances, none could guess what trick 'Liu the Devil' would pull next.

Facing the eight female soldiers with doubtful looks, Liu Xiaotian kept a straight face, his gaze slowly sweeping over each of them, and said lightly: 'I must admit, you eight have at least reached the standard of a qualified soldier in will; note, it's a soldier, not a special forces soldier.'

The training of the past week was merely basic training, aimed at letting you adapt to the special forces training model in a short time.

Congratulations, you are all qualified now.

The eight women: ……

Listen, is this something a person would say? Can the training be any harsher? In just a short week, seven days, we've endured what feels like seven months.

Now you stand here and say to us: 'Qualified?' In their hearts they almost simultaneously had the same thought, namely:

This Instructor Liu must be talking nonsense! Put bluntly, he's just trying to scare people! The training of the past week, aside from having a three‑part tormenting approach, was merely two to three times the normal training volume, with the location and method being hard to accept.

Otherwise, it's just that? Liu Xiaotian seemed to guess what they were thinking; a faint smile flickered in his eyes and vanished instantly.

Although the expression on Qin Yuxi's face standing beside Liu Xiaotian showed no change, she secretly broke a sweat for the eight female soldiers of the Fire Phoenix.

She didn't know the details of Liu Xiaotian's role as an instructor at Warrior School, but she did know Liu Xiaotian's strength.

Since he said it's only just begun, it certainly isn't empty talk, nor is it intimidation……
