“Five kilometers, oh, I adore you so much! Can’t even get through a day without a run!”

Across the playground, the shouts reverberated.

Wang Ye swore this had to be the most contradictory slogan he’d ever uttered.

While he cherished goofing around and relishing in the pleasures of growth.

But what he truly wanted was a five-kilometer jog in lightweight attire.

Because within the system, this skill could only be activated once, and accumulating experience was feasible with either light gear or full gear.

In this scenario, he naturally had no inclination to run with additional weight.

Yet, now he found himself jogging with hefty gear day after day!

Who could possibly find this situation enjoyable?

Much less love it?

Or be unable to live without it?

This was beyond exasperating.

In reality, this sentiment wasn’t confined to Wang Ye alone; other fresh recruits might be chanting this slogan aloud, yet deep down, they probably harbored similar feelings of nausea.

Wang Ye didn’t mind a five-kilometer jog in light gear. They probably wouldn’t even want to attempt the same distance in lightweight attire, let alone with the added weight of full gear…

However, one couldn’t fight the body’s limitations. So, even if the platoon leaders demanded these chants, even if it went against their sentiments, compliance was the only option.

“Let me inform you, it’s already been sixty days, you’re no longer the fresh-faced recruits who just joined.”

At the edge of the playground, Wu Jianfeng held a megaphone and thundered.

“Two-thirds of your three-month recruit training are now behind you.

In your current state, you must embody the demeanor of a soldier.

Five kilometers and still dragging your heels.

Anyone who can’t finish within twenty-five minutes today will have to complete two hundred meters of frog jumps as a consequence. Let’s get those legs working!”

Wu Jianfeng’s words caused many of the new recruits in the running formation to clench their teeth.

Yet, they had no choice but to suppress their reluctance and quicken their pace.

Wang Ye extended his hand towards Qin Li, who was beside him. “Give me the rifle.”

“Tha… thanks, Brother Wang! But… I’m fine, I just… might not be able to keep up!” Qin Li declined.

This had actually become the norm. Even the company commander and platoon leaders didn’t object to it. Ever since the five-kilometer cross-country with weapons had started, during their daily runs, the platoon leaders would encourage the top performers in the class to assist those with weaker physical abilities, helping to ease the burden.

However, they typically only did this when it was genuinely difficult for someone to keep up.

But today, with the requirement of finishing within twenty-five minutes, a minute faster than before, that’s why Wang Ye wanted to step in and help earlier.

“Quit dawdling, today you have twenty-five minutes. Save your energy and don’t lag behind later.”

Wang Ye took his rifle, and simultaneously, Wan Baojiang and Liang Fan saw the situation and aided other classmates in lightening their loads.

Unity is strength, and as everyone became more acquainted with one another, under the deliberate guidance of each platoon leader.

By now, the idea of the class operating as a cohesive unit had deeply taken root in everyone’s minds.

“Today, if your bandages can be removed, take them off. In the morning drill, we’ll be practicing grenade throwing and wearing gas masks. Having bandages on your hands might impact that.”

After completing the five-kilometer run, thanks to collective assistance, there were no punishments in the entire platoon.

Upon returning to the dormitory for a brief rest, Ye Sanshi suddenly looked at everyone and spoke up.

“Indeed, we won’t be carrying rifles and practicing tactics this morning?” Qin Li’s face lit up with surprise.

He genuinely dreaded these activities.

Before enlisting, he had fantasized about becoming an elite in amphibious operations. Wang Ye even remembered that on the first night of their introduction, Ye Sanshi had asked Qin Li why he joined the army.

Back then, Qin Li had claimed he wanted to become a special forces soldier because he found the special forces on TV incredibly cool and awe-inspiring.

However, now he had confided to Wang Ye and others more than once that he aspired to join the culinary team and raise pigs.

Well, not the culinary aspect, he specifically wished to be responsible for pig-rearing.

“Why are you wearing such a pleased expression? Delighted that we won’t be practicing tactics or carrying rifles?”

“Utterly hopeless!” Ye Sanshi’s demeanor turned stern again as he scolded him.

Qin Li lowered his head and remained silent, but deep inside, he was undoubtedly still rejoicing.

Having reprimanded him just once, Ye Sanshi turned his attention back to everyone. “Today marks the sixty-first day of your training.

Logically speaking, your month of physical conditioning is already completed.

However, due to the New Year incident, you were given some time off, which means physical training is far from over!”

His words momentarily froze the fleeting happiness on everyone’s faces, as he had just mentioned the completion of the physical training month.

But Ye Sanshi didn’t conclude there.

“Although physical conditioning will persist, only one month remains. Certain tactical training that you should have undergone will definitely be carried out.

So, excel today. Give it your best when throwing grenades. If you come in first, I assure you a reward.”

“What kind of reward? Platoon leader, it’s not another five-kilometer run, is it?” Yan Zhiming whispered.

Ye Sanshi cast a glance at him. “If that’s the kind of reward you fancy, I can certainly arrange it for you!”

“No, no!” Yan Zhiming promptly waved his hands.

Needless to say, he feared that Ye Sanshi might set up such a trap, so he preemptively voiced his reservations.

“Hmph, don’t doubt my honesty!”

Ye Sanshi shamelessly uttered these words.

Upon concluding his statement, he gazed at everyone, and suddenly, his smile deepened. In this moment, even Wang Ye found his smile somewhat unsettling.

“I know you all have a fondness for the two military doctors in our unit. Would you like them to hug you, or perhaps… even kiss you?”

Huh?

This declaration instantly sent waves of astonishment through the members of Class Five.

All eyes fixated on him in disbelief.

Fuck… Class Monitor, do… do you genuinely possess such authority?” Gu Yingnan couldn’t help but let out an expletive.

Even if others refrained from using profanity, their sentiment mirrored the same incredulity.

“Class Monitor, are you running a fever?” Liang Fan even reached out, seemingly aiming to touch Ye Sanshi’s forehead.

What a ludicrous notion—he was discussing kissing.

Receiving treatment from them when injured during training was already deemed fortunate.

Within Class Five, several individuals hadn’t interacted with the doctors even after being here for twenty days.

When injuries required treatment, it was either the Class Monitor or the medic who handled it.

And even if some had interacted with them, conversations remained limited, focused solely on addressing their injuries.

Given these circumstances, now you’re asking us if we desire to be hugged or even kissed by them?

“Get lost, why are you talking about a fever!” Ye Sanshi brushed Liang Fan’s hand aside, then whispered to everyone, “Allow me to divulge that this afternoon, there will be training in sanitation and first aid, led by the two female military doctors.”

In an instant, Ye Sanshi’s tone carried an alluring implication. “Within this training, there’s a task involving transporting injured personnel. You’ll need to carry them by embracing and dragging.”

“Gurgle!”

Wang Ye regarded Liang Fan with a touch of speechlessness. This guy had actually audibly gulped.

Ye Sanshi also cast a glance at him.

“Uh… well, I’m thirsty!” Liang Fan chuckled awkwardly.

“So pathetic!” Ye Sanshi cast him a disdainful look before continuing, “In this training, there’s also a task called CPR, and within CPR, there’s a segment on artificial respiration!”

“Damn!”

At this very moment, two people simultaneously let slip a profanity.

“This… Class Monitor… are you genuinely serious?” Following Yan Zhiming’s “damn,” he spoke with an incredulous expression.

Ye Sanshi grinned, “It’s a possibility. They’re doctors. In the eyes of doctors, patients are all the same. And in the interest of thorough instruction, they might actually do it.

Of course, the likelihood is quite low, so don’t get your hopes up.

Unless it’s Wang Ye doing it, and if that Ouyang Mingyue military doctor happens to be the instructor, then there might be a chance.”

In this instant, everyone’s gaze fell upon Wang Ye.

And Wang Ye just appeared flabbergasted.

Why are you even saying this? Isn’t it unnecessary?

“Class Monitor, cut it out.” Wang Ye couldn’t help but speak.

Would she actually do it?

Wang Ye found it absurd. Even if he were to participate, wouldn’t it be mortifying for a girl to perform that in front of everyone?

Naturally, it’s possible that this girl is truly appearance-conscious and might kiss him for the sake of appearances.

However, Wang Ye wasn’t keen on being kissed so casually.

Isn’t a man’s first kiss precious?

Even though he lost his first kiss in his previous life, didn’t this life grant him a new beginning?

His first kiss was still intact.

“Flaha, just kidding!” Ye Sanshi laughed before turning his attention to the others.

“Although artificial respiration isn’t highly likely, there will certainly be instances of moving injured patients, which will involve embracing and dragging.”

Allow me to phrase it this way: whoever secures first place today, I’ll make sure to inform the other class monitors that you guys should take on the roles of injured patients.

If you’re leading the pack, the other platoon leaders probably won’t have the audacity to challenge my decision.

Of course, the prerequisite is that each and every one of you needs to perform commendably.”

In this moment, Wang Ye couldn’t help but feel that Ye Sanshi was a grand manipulator.

For the sake of motivating everyone, he was merely weaving tales.

Not to mention the fact that the two female military doctors could coordinate such a demonstration with them.

Even if a demonstration requiring the collaboration of new recruits were truly necessary, were you certain you could dictate who would participate?

Instead of the military doctors selecting the participants themselves.

Of course, Wang Ye chose not to expose his thought.

As the deputy platoon leader, he could opt out of aiding in motivating the others. Yet, if he obstructed it, Ye Sanshi would undoubtedly cause complications for him later.

Let this group of spirited young men give it their all!

Ultimately, they wouldn’t face any significant loss, just the forfeit of a few grenades. Who knows, perhaps someone might rise to the occasion under this stimulation and achieve an impressive result..
