I enlisted four times! My former unit blacklisted me.

Halfway through the race, Wu Hanfeng couldn't keep going either.

The main problem is that I haven't run in too long.

And the other new recruits are even more so.

More than half of them have already switched from running to walking.

But there were still a dozen or so new recruits who kept running.

Needless to say, Zhao Yihang is another story.

He went straight to Wu Hanfeng's side and asked curiously, "Brother Feng, didn't you say you often exercise at home? Why are you so slow?"

Wu Hanfeng glanced at him and said, "I do train, but training and running fast are two different things."

"But you said you could run for 23 minutes."

"I said ideally, but I'm not ideal right now."

"..."

At this point, Zhou Haibo couldn't stand it anymore and called Wu Hanfeng out.

"Old Wu, what's wrong with you? You're already exhausted after running less than three kilometers?"

"At least you used to be competent, but now you're just giving up, huh?"

"Just do me a favor and try your best to pass, okay?"

Wu Hanfeng said helplessly, "Brother, I haven't run for almost half a year, and I haven't gotten back into shape yet."

"Wait a few more days, and I promise you, you'll not only pass, but you'll definitely excel! You might even break the group's record!"

Zhou Haibo: "..."

"You're someone who struggles to even pass, and you're telling me you've broken the group record? Are you trying to make a fool of me?"

"Do you think I believe you?"

Wu Hanfeng tilted his head slightly and muttered to himself, "Do I have to tell you when the system activates in a few days?"

…………

Soon, the five-kilometer run was over.

Unsurprisingly, 80% of the new recruits did not complete the entire run.

But they made it down the mountain.

Of the dozen or so people who finished the run, only a few met the passing standard.

Seeing everyone's disappointed expressions, Chen Zhiyuan smiled and comforted them, "Don't be discouraged."

"It's normal to not be able to finish running such a long distance for the first time."

"Long-distance running requires gradual training."

"Run it a few more times, and you'll get used to it."

"Now, each class will organize a half-hour muscle relaxation session before lunch."

…………

On the lawn, Wu Hanfeng and Qiankun relaxed together.

"Brother Feng, I ran for at least thirty-five minutes."

"Is my skill level hopeless in the military?"

Wu Hanfeng said, "What's the rush! The first time I ran, it took me 40 minutes."

"what?"

Qian Kun looked surprised. "How far did you run just now?"

"It should be around twenty-five minutes."

Qian Kun was speechless. "Then you failed, didn't you?"

"But I've improved."

Qian Kun: "..."

But soon, it seemed that there was indeed some truth to it.

As long as today is better than yesterday, isn't that progress?

After the relaxation,

Wu Hanfeng was walking slowly towards his dormitory when a voice suddenly echoed in his mind.

[System notification: Today's check-in has been completed.]

[Current cumulative number of days of combat unit check-in: 2191 days.]

[Remaining activation days: 4 days.]

Upon hearing this voice, Wu Hanfeng's lips immediately curled up.

Only four days left!

Oh shit!

We've made it through all these years.

What's four days?

Suddenly, Wu Hanfeng was in a great mood. Humming a tune about good luck, he swaggered towards the jail cell.

Not far behind him, Chen Zhiyuan, Zhou Haibo, and Liu Yang heard the voice and their expressions turned strange.

"Is he humming 'Good Luck'?"

"It seems so!"

"He's running like a madman, and he still has the nerve to hum this song? Is he out of his mind?"
