Chapter 605
"What? Not that weak? You still have the nerve to mutter!"
Zhang Su tilted his head and raised his hand to cup his ear. Actually, no one was muttering; he was just talking to himself...
"Don't be unconvinced, and don't be discouraged. Times are different now. There are so many new brothers and sisters. Everyone knows that the Yama Legion is the strongest combat force in Tianmayu. You hold this title and enjoy various privileges, so you should have some self-awareness! This is an idol burden. If anyone feels it's too heavy to carry, you can voluntarily take it off. If you quit the Yama Legion, we are still good brothers and can still live in Tianmayu. None of this will change, it's just that the way those people look at you afterward might not be very good. Does anyone feel under pressure and want to quit?"
"No!"
"I won't quit, I'm very strong!"
"Hehehe..."
The answering voices were sparse, but more people had firm expressions. Often, forcing yourself isn't effective enough; you need an external force to spur you on. The title of Yama Legion couldn't be better!
Seeing the crowd's reaction, Zhang Su nodded.
"I'll give you a heads-up in advance. In a few days, there will be a reshuffle for all combat personnel. It won't involve the Yama Legion; it's mainly to determine the candidates for the elite group and the reserve team and conduct standardized training. Don't get beaten to the ground by the people in the elite group then, that would be a huge embarrassment!"
"No... Brother Su, I... I."
"You ass, don't give me any excuses!"
Wu Lue wanted to say something, but Zhang Su interrupted him directly and continued, "I know some of you have special skills. Luezi plays with electronics, Dachao can fix cars, Old Jia understands electrical work, Teacher Yu rolls bombs, but I'll say it again: except for those like Old Yu who are limited by physical conditions, everyone else must hurry up and improve their combat power!"
The two non-official members standing on the side, Ke Zhiyu and Zhou Haotian, looked at each other after hearing Zhang Su's words. There were indeed hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the Yama Legion. Even the seemingly gentle chemistry teacher could roll bombs to kill zombies. This directly determined the lower limit of the entire team.
When even the seemingly weakest in a team showed an extraordinary side, the others couldn't slack off. For example, Yu Qing, Pei Lan, Zhong Xiaoshan, and the highly deceptive Zhao Xue in the Yama Legion.
Several women had faces full of toughness, which invisibly put a lot of pressure on their male counterparts.
"Enough motivational words. Next, I want to introduce two new companions to everyone: Ke Zhiyu, Zhou Haotian."
As he spoke, Zhang Su pointed to the side of Liu Tianji and the side of Ju Wuying.
"Hello everyone, my name is Zhou Haotian! The Hao with three water drops and a 'gao', not the Hao with 'sun' and 'sky'. Currently, I am a trainee member of the Yama Legion. Please take care of me."
Zhou Haotian greeted everyone very generously, then bowed. His way of speaking and actions had a strong two-dimensional flavor. He felt that temporary member didn't sound very good, so he changed his name.
Ke Zhiyu wasn't as open as Zhou Haotian, but he wasn't awkward either. He waved to everyone. "Hello everyone, I am Ke Zhiyu, a temporary member of the Yama Legion."
The two were personally recognized by Zhang Su, so the others' acceptance of them was very high, and they all cast friendly smiles, but only one person showed a different expression.
Zhong Xiaoshan stood in the crowd with her brows slightly furrowed. Unlike her usual down jacket and big cotton pants, she wore a neat outfit to ensure training. The name Zhou Haotian made her feel familiar, but before she could think of a clue, Zhang Su spoke.
"Alright, the introduction of new friends ends here. Without further ado, let Ju Wuying lead everyone in training!"
After saying that, Zhang Su walked to the side and gave up the middle position.
"Oh, you! Sister Orange is awesome!"
Zhou Haotian didn't know that Ju Wuying was everyone's instructor, and his chin almost fell to the ground. Ju Wuying didn't walk directly in front of the crowd. She walked to Zhang Su's side, looked at Zhou Haotian, and said calmly, "I don't like that person following me all the time!"
A performance with no emotional intelligence was the most direct way of communication. A refusal without any beating around the bush saved time costs.
Everyone pursed their lips and said nothing. What could others say about the matter between the first and second combatants?
Zhou Haotian rubbed his hands awkwardly, not knowing what to say. He was clearly quite smart; was he that annoying?
In the morning, when he learned that the person he was looking for was a woman from the island country, he was quite happy because he liked two-dimensional culture and thought he could communicate a bit. As a result, he talked for a long time, but the other party was too lazy to say a word to him...
Zhang Su stayed for a second and smiled. "Hey, you can't do this. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. You are strong enough in the Yama Legion, and you don't have many tasks usually, so of course, you should lead the newcomers. Zhou Haotian has a flexible brain. If you have anything you don't understand, you can ask him. He won't let you down!"
Ju Wuying stared at Zhang Su for five or six seconds, curled her lip, turned around, and walked in front of the crowd. Then she took off her coat and started today's training without saying a word.
The training of Ju-style martial arts would make those who came into contact with it for the first time honest. After the intensity of a warm-up, Zhou Haotian was almost exhausted. When he learned that the formal training hadn't started yet, he didn't even have the strength to wail.
But when he saw Ke Zhiyu, who was also a temporary member, he was numb. There was only one question in his heart: Why could he do it?
Let alone Zhou Haotian, many members of the Yama Legion who noticed Ke Zhiyu's performance inadvertently were very surprised. The completion of his movements almost caught up with the veterans who had trained for a period of time!
At the very front of the team, Zhang Su, Zhao Dezhu, Lu Yubo, and Chen Hanzhou followed Ju Wuying's rhythm closely, without any cutting corners. Every set of movements was practiced to the extreme. Soon, the three people besides Zhang Su had heat rising from their heads, and sweat slid down their cheeks.
In the crowd, there was no lack of people with firm will and physique, such as Zheng Xinyu, Zhao Xue, Pan Guoliang, Guo Dachao, etc., as well as Liu Tianji, who had always been at the bottom. Even Pei Lan, Zhong Xiaoshan, and Wu Lue, who were the most difficult, gritted their teeth and persisted. It didn't matter if the movements were deformed; just persist!
The training intensity of the Yama Legion was a height that ordinary people couldn't imagine. Only three people could truly be light and breezy: Ju Wuying, Zhang Su, and Corgi Haoyun...
When the Yama Legion gathered outside the mountain stream, Haoyun came. It was particularly keen on training. During the few days Zhang Su led the team into the city, it didn't miss training and persisted every day.
The small figure was in the corner, weirdly imitating human movements. No one cared, but it was extremely serious.
In the blink of an eye, three hours passed, the afternoon training ended, and the sky was already dark.
Chen Hanzhou discovered Liu Tianji and Ke Zhiyu's hands "Huff... huff... huff..."
The scene was filled with heavy breathing. Those with weak physical fitness supported their knees with their hands, like decadent dogs.
Zhang Su gave an order not to lie down, otherwise, the people present would generally lie down on the spot.
"Alright, today's training ends here. There will be a rich dinner later, so don't be late. Go back and tidy up."
Zhang Su was full of energy because he activated the second energy slot. So far, 89% remained, which was a cut better than Ju Wuying! Under the blessing of the energy slot, the training effect was quite excellent. It couldn't be quantified, but it was roughly estimated to be equivalent to three times the effect of ordinary people.
With an order, the people present dragged their exhausted bodies toward their residences, not wanting to say a word. Saying goodbye was a waste of energy, and even looking at their companions felt redundant.
