As time passed, the sun was getting bigger and hotter, the instructor continued to shuttle through the team. When anyone started to relax their shoulders, the instructor immediately shouted at them!
Some people can’t help to be lazy, eh? Heh, how daring, go stand at the front of the class!
Initially, there was only one person standing in front of Ye Jian. An hour later, four people stood beside her.
Sweat flowed more and more, rolling down their faces like rain. Their shirts and shorts were wet from their collar, front chest, armpits, back, waist belt… Only the corner of their shirt was not wet.
Clothes soaked in sweat clinged to their skin, plus the heat from the sun, making their skin prickly and itchy, and making them want to scratch their body.
Everyone wanted to scratch their body, but no one dared to really do it. They forced themselves to endure this physical and mental torture, facing their instructor’s cold eyes, and keeping their backs straight as they looked forward.
“Legs straight! Back straight!” The instructor’s voice sounded from the back. It was cold and icy, as it fell into the students’ ears with a bitter force, “Look ahead. Do not squint, do not blink even when the wind blows, stand straight like a strong pine, your body is stainless steel, remember our soldier postures!”
They were not the only ones who needed to learn to stand in military posture; everyone who entered the army and entered the military academy must learn.
Whenever you stand in the military posture, even if it’s just a simple sitting down the action, it will reveal the might of the soldiers. Your words and deeds will also show your soldiers’ temperament, and it must be as lofty as a mountain and stern as a pine.
At this time, everyone’s eyes were crimson; Ye Jian was no exception.
The sweat flowed into their eyes, irritating them, but no one dared to rub their eyes. Even if they were irritated until tears were flowing, they had to endure it.
90 minutes later, there was a pool of water stains on the ground at every students’ feet. It was the watermark left by their sweat that had run down the pants, wetting the ground.
Their trousers were wet from their waistband, especially where their middle finger was placed. Most of the sweat ran down their arms gathered at their middle fingers, making the seam of their trousers completely wet.
“Report! My head…” Someone reported, but before he even finished his sentence, his body fell straight ahead; he fainted due to heatstroke.
This was the first student to faint from heatstroke today. It was much better than the previous two days. The first two days, students fainted one by one, as if they really fell on the battlefield and couldn’t wake up again, scaring the students were still standing.
Today was the third day. The students who were still standing weren’t affected much by the fainted student. After all, there were some classmates who fainted from heatstroke in their first month of military training last time.
But the standing military posture now was really different from the freshmen military training. The freshmen standing military posture was not so strict. The squad leader would let you go if you didn’t make too big of a movement.
Totally unlike now. They had to stand so straight now; perhaps the only thing missing was a cross-tied to their backs.
Thinking of the cross, some classmates glanced at the side; the school really prepared across. They heard that Class 1 had used it. Class 3 had a model student, Ye Jian, so her classmates struggled not to fall behind too much. Therefore, they hadn’t used the prepared “cross” for now.
“A classmate in Class 3 fainted due to heatstroke.” The instructor supported the student who had fainted due to heatstroke with one hand and turned on the intercom to contact the doctor. “The situation is not serious.”
