Chapter 54: Who’s Dying?
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Alih! Class monitor… Haha! Aiyo… Class monitor… Don’t… All!”
...A strange scream echoed across the training ground.
The voice contained pain, laughter, and pleas…
It was hard to imagine that Wan Baojiang, who had boldly contradicted Ye Sanshi in front of the recruits yesterday, could make such sounds.
But that’s exactly what happened.
At this moment, Wan Baojiang’s arm and shoulder were pinned down by the seventh squad leader, while Ye Sanshi held his arm with one hand and pressed on his chest with the other.
The difference was that the seventh-class monitor applied pressure to the back of his head while Ye Sanshi knelt on one knee on the inner left side of Wan Baojiang.
…..
Yes, his kneeling knee was pressing directly on the muscles of Wan Baojiang’s arms.
This was the massage technique being employed by the two class monitors.
They claimed that it would relax the muscles and alleviate any pain the recruits might feel the next day.
According to them, even those with a foundation needed this massage because their foundation was not strong enough.
Yesterday’s training intensity wasn’t too high, so they were able to endure it. However, muscle damage might be accumulating silently, and its effects could manifest later.
Hence, this massage was considered necessary and beneficial.
And now, they were diligently massaging everyone.
But this particular scene involved Wan Baojiang lying on the ground, with one person holding him down to prevent him from running away while the other started the so-called massage from his feet and worked their way up to his hands.
“Thank goodness, I wouldn’t want to be in this position!”
Someone next to Wang Ye sighed at this moment.
Was this really a massage?
Even a butcher knew to slaughter a pig swiftly.
Yet, here they were.
One was using shoes to rub his calves. Another was using both hands to pinch and vigorously rub the flesh on their calves and thighs.
Even though they hadn’t experienced that sore feeling yet, they looked at the tough man Wan Baojiang.
That was why they were glad they weren’t the ones lying there.
Fortunately, they wouldn’t have to experience it individually later.
The two class monitors explained that time was limited today, and they were short on manpower. Additionally, the recruits weren’t experiencing any pain that day.
“So, let’s choose someone to demonstrate first. The rest of you just need to observe and learn a bit. Once you’ve learned it well, you can help massage the other recruits later.”
“Pay attention now because you’ll be helping later. If anyone doesn’t take it seriously or doesn’t apply enough pressure, then you can lie down later and experience it personally before continuing!”
“Yes, sir!”
[Mission guaranteed to be completed! 1
The dozen or so recruits responded earnestly.
They would rather die than suffer such pain.
Just observing the massage was enough. It was better to let the recruits with sore muscles experience it.
“Wait… What’s happening over there?”
“I don’t know, I’m not lying down… They’re all gathered around… Look… They’re shouting away. But why does it sound so agonized?”
The recruits on the running track were panting heavily. They clenched their teeth to endure the pain with each step.
Consequently, they couldn’t speak clearly at this moment.
“Come on, run faster. It’s been twenty minutes already. You guys are really slow. Look at your comrades—they’re already moving on to the next activity.”
On the track, most of the recruits had only one lap remaining to run.
Some of them were even nearing the end.
Now, the remaining class monitors who were running alongside them shouted, urging them on.
This made the recruits on the running track tremble.
What did he mean by moving on to the next activity?
Did that imply that they were expected to participate as well?
Hearing the screams coming from the circle surrounded by Wang Ye and the others and then looking at the army green mats placed on the ground, some astute recruits suddenly turned pale.
A few individuals even stopped running.
But since they were already there, their choices were limited.
“Hurry up, what are you waiting for?”
“Sir… Class monitor… I… I can’t run anymore… I need a break… Just wait, I’ll catch up!”
Bent over, the recruit gasped for breath. As he spoke, he wanted to sit down and take a rest.
He had no regard for his manliness.
However, the screaming from the other group, which they could hear clearly from half the training ground away, made running over there equivalent to offering their heads on a platter.
At this point, there was no turning back.
“It’s fine. The sooner you suffer, the sooner you can recover. In fact, you can’t avoid it.” The veteran squad leader smiled, patting the recruit’s shoulder.

At that moment, the recruit seemed to have swallowed a dead rat.
“Sir… Class monitor… Can I refuse?”
“What do you think?”
The recruit’s face fell. He knew he had no way to refuse.
Even if he wanted to continue running, he couldn’t.
Not to mention that these three kilometers had already exhausted him, leaving his muscles extremely sore. Even if that wasn’t the case, he wouldn’t dare to run!
Since yesterday, they had been emphasizing records, rules, and obedience. If he dared to run against their orders, it wouldn’t be as simple as being carried over for torture later.
The screams of pain coming from Wan Baojiang, along with the sight of a group of new recruits surrounding him, had already transformed that area into an execution ground in his mind.
Soon, two recruits ran over from a distance.
It was Wang Ye and Liang Fan.
After all, Ye Sanshi was the one who gave the order.
He didn’t know the recruits from the other squads. In his own squad, one was already lying down and “enjoying” the massage, leaving only two available.
“Reporting, acting deputy class monitor of Class 5, Wang Ye!”
“Fifth Squad recruit, Liang Fan!”
As the two of them approached, Wang Ye and Liang Fan stood at attention and saluted.
“Very well, help me carry this recruit over!”
The veteran class monitor wasn’t particularly curious about Wang Ye’s position as the acting deputy class monitor.
After all, the seventh-class monitor had mentioned it during the meeting last night.
Moreover, it didn’t surprise him. The recruit with the bitter face standing next to him was the one who seemed taken aback.
“Deputy class monitor?”
His eyes widened as he looked at Wang Ye.
It had only been a few days since training began, right? And it had only started yesterday. Yet this guy was already the deputy class monitor?
He was certainly familiar with Wang Ye. After all, Wang Ye had taken the initiative to showcase his skills in front of the entire company yesterday.
Not to mention his persuasive speech to Deng Hai in the morning and his confrontation with Wan Baojiang later. His performance during the news commentary at night had made the entire company deeply aware of the new recruit from the fifth squad who had to act as a cushion.
Unbeknownst to him, Wang Ye had already become the acting deputy class monitor today.
…..
He had overlooked the word “acting.”
That’s because it didn’t matter. He was already acting, so it would be justified to drop that word in the future.
“Let’s go, buddy. Stop staring. There’s nothing special about my face!”
Wang Ye and Liang Fan exchanged glances, and then, one on each side, they firmly grabbed the recruit’s hands.
While Wang Ye spoke, the two of them exerted all their strength to lift him up.
“Sigh… Slow down… It hurts!”
The recruit cried out as soon as they moved him.
“Hehe, buddy, endure it. We’ll be done soon. There’s a divine doctor over there who specializes in treating muscle soreness!” Liang Fan chimed in with a cheerful expression. They didn’t mind watching the show!
They were eager to see what would happen to this guy who screamed in pain with every move.
Well… Wang Ye was actually quite curious.
