The hospital is too busy, so I'm going to join the army and become a top soldier!

"Shen Yan, I won't lose to you in the physical fitness test this afternoon!"

Wei Shanjia, who was lying on the table, suddenly blurted out this sentence.

His voice was full of confidence!

Before Shen Yan could answer, the little boy next to him turned his head away.

"Friend, weren't you sleeping?"

"Why are you talking in your sleep?"

Wei Shanjia opened his eyes, his face dark, and said:

"Who's talking in their sleep?"

"I meant three thousand meters!"

"I admit that Shen Yan is indeed better than me in terms of internal affairs, regulations, and drills."

"But the 3000 meters is different; this is my specialty!"

Wei Shanjia is a national first-class athlete!

Although the 3,000 meters is not his only training event, he has been seriously training in it for many years.

Pace, cadence, breathing, cornering technique, and final sprint.

These things cannot be completely compensated for simply by having strong physical fitness!

Shen Yan's weighted running is indeed abnormal.

Weighted running and a 3,000-meter race are completely different things!

Running while carrying tens of kilograms is a test of endurance, strength, and body control.

The 3,000-meter race is a test of speed and endurance!

Wei Shanjia couldn't believe that after training for so many years, he could still lose to Shen Yan in his best sport!

After listening, Ga Wa nodded seriously.

"That makes sense!"

Wei Shanjia was somewhat surprised.

Why did my little one suddenly learn to speak human language today?

The next second, Ga Wa continued:

"Get some sleep first. Winning in your dreams is still winning!"

Wei Shanjia: "..."

……

In the afternoon, all the new recruits returned to the parade ground.

The physical fitness assessment area has been set up in advance.

The horizontal bar, mats, stopwatch, and score sheet were all placed next to the playground.

Chen Gang walked to the front of the group and announced the afternoon's assessment arrangements.

"The basic physical fitness assessment consists of four parts!"

"Push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups, and the 3000-meter run!"

"Leave the 3,000 meters for last."

"After the first three events are completed, everyone will rest until they are physically fit before taking the 3000-meter test!"

Upon hearing that the 3,000-meter race would be held last, Wei Shanjia's eyes lit up.

The grand finale!

As expected, only the most important projects deserve to be placed last!

Wei Shanjia turned to look at Shen Yan.

"Take it easy on the projects ahead."

"Don't tell me you're out of energy after the 3000 meters have started."

Shen Yan nodded.

"The same to you."

Wei Shanjia's smile vanished instantly.

He kindly reminded Shen Yan, so why did Shen Yan reciprocate by reminding him instead?

Whom do you look down on?

"As a national-level athlete, do I need you to remind me how to allocate my energy?"

"Friend, they're just doing this for your own good."

Ga Wa said from the side:

"I'm afraid that if you lose too many races in the beginning, you'll lose your fighting spirit by the time you reach the 3,000-meter mark."

Wei Shanjia gritted his teeth and turned his head.

He doesn't want to talk to Gawa anymore.

This guy's mouth is even more venomous than some old women's!

Once he beats Shen Yan in the 3000 meters, he will definitely run three laps around Ga Wa first!

Let this guy see what a national first-class athlete really is!

The first test was push-ups.

The assessment will last two minutes.

During the movement, the body must remain straight, without slouching or sticking out the buttocks.

When falling, the shoulders should be at least lower than the elbows, and when rising, the arms must be basically straight.

If the movements are not performed correctly, no matter how fast you do it, it will not be counted in the score.

The new recruits from the previous classes took turns entering the arena.

Most people scored between forty and sixty.

Being able to score more than sixty is already considered a good performance.

Those with more than seventy students are able to directly rank among the top students in their respective classes.

When it was the turn of Class Two, Wei Shanjia was the first to step forward.

He wanted to set an example for Shen Yan first!

"start!"

As soon as the assessment officer gave the order, Wei Shanjia quickly bent his arms.

The body falls.

Hold on!

The entire movement was very precise.

For the first thirty, he barely stopped.

After reaching forty, the speed gradually stabilized.

After sixty repetitions, Wei Shanjia's breathing became noticeably heavier, and his arms began to ache.

However, he does have a very strong physique.

In the last ten seconds or so, he gritted his teeth and sped up.

"Seventy-nine!"

"eighty!"

"Eighty-one!"

"Eighty-two!"

"Time's up!"

Wei Shanjia propped himself up, sat down to the side, and took a few deep breaths.

Two minutes, eighty-two!

This score surpasses that of all the previous recruits.

The assessment officer in charge of recording couldn't help but glance at Wei Shanjia again.

"You used to be an athlete?"

"Yes, sir!"

Wei Shanjia stood up, his chest puffed out even more than before.

Although the 3,000 meters haven't started yet, it would be great if he could get first place in push-ups first!

Not long after, it was Shen Yan's turn to go on stage.

Shen Yan bent down to get ready.

"start!"

Unlike Wei Shanjia, he didn't accelerate his pace too quickly at the beginning.

Each push-up, from descent to push-up, maintained a steady rhythm.

The body is basically in a straight line from head to toe.

There were no obvious deformities in the movements of the shoulder, elbow, and wrist.

A minute passed, and Shen Yan's speed did not change much.

After a minute and a half, other recruits usually started to slow down when doing push-ups.

Shen Yan, however, maintained his original rhythm!

In the past month, he has been doing more than just weighted running.

Upper body strength training was not neglected either!

Especially after gaining the ability to transport wounded soldiers on the battlefield some time ago, Shen Yan's understanding of how to exert force in his shoulders, back, arms, and core muscles has been further enhanced.

For him, push-ups were not just about using his arms to support his body.

The shoulders, back, chest, arms, and core can now form a complete power chain!

"Eighty-six!"

"Eighty-seven!"

"Eighty-eight!"

"Time's up!"

Shen Yan finally completed eighty-eight!

Six more than Wei Shanjia!

Wei Shanjia's smile froze for a moment.

However, he quickly found the reason.

You're thinner than me!

"Push-ups are about supporting your own body weight; you're lighter than me, so of course you have an advantage!"

Wei Shanjia stretched his slightly sore arms and said in a serious tone:

"This one will make you win."

"When you weigh the same as me, let's have a push-up contest."

Shen Yan glanced at Wei Shanjia.

"Weight is also a part of physical fitness. Is it possible for me to be more balanced?"

"That's different!"

Wei Shanjia retorted earnestly:

"All the extra muscle I have now is!"

Ga Wa glanced at Wei Shanjia a few times from the side.

"Friend, do you consider those five extra steamed buns you ate at lunch as muscle?"

The new recruits in the second platoon couldn't hold back any longer.

Wei Shanjia's face darkened.

"Those five steamed buns were digested long ago!"

"Digested that quickly?"

The little boy was full of admiration.

"Do you have several sheep inside your body, just to feed you?"

Gao Zhenhai said coldly from the side:

"Gawa, if you're so concerned about whether Wei Shanjia has a sheep inside him, after the assessment, I can let you two study each other all night."

The little boy immediately shut up.

Wei Shanjia offered no further explanation.

Anyway, push-ups weren't his specialty.

What difference would it make if Shen Yan won once?

The second exercise is sit-ups.

Wei Shanjia learned a lesson from doing push-ups.

This time, he didn't rush in at the start, but instead focused on stabilizing the pace.

His core strength was already quite good.

Each rise and fall of the body was executed with remarkable precision.

Two minutes later, Wei Shanjia completed eighty-one!

Another achievement that ranks among the top in the recruit training camp!

After Wei Shanjia stood up, he didn't show off, but just silently looked at Shen Yan.

He wanted to see if Shen Yan could surpass him this time!

After Shen Yan came on, he also did not blindly pursue a fast start.

His breathing and movements were always coordinated.

Exhale as you stand up, and inhale as you lower your body back down.

The core muscles of the waist and abdomen were stable, and there was no obvious deformation of the movement due to fatigue throughout the process.

Final score: 85!

Four more than Wei Shanjia!

Wei Shanjia looked at the scores on the record sheet and fell silent.

Even if he loses at push-ups, he can still say that Shen Yan is lighter and had an advantage.

How do you explain the ability to do sit-ups?

Could it be that Shen Yan is lighter than him even after lying down?

Ga Wa stood beside him, seemingly noticing his confusion.

"Are you alright, friend?"

"We've already lost two games."

"There will be opportunities to keep trying!"

Wei Shanjia turned his head.

Are you trying to comfort me, or are you planning a funeral for me?

"Of course I'm just trying to comfort you."

Ga Wa said earnestly:

"After all, it's not even 3,000 meters yet, you still have hope!"

Wei Shanjia didn't want to talk to him anymore.

The third exercise is pull-ups.

Seeing the single-bar competition, Wei Shanjia regained some confidence.

While pull-ups are also related to body weight, they require more strength in the arms, back, and grip.

He was heavier than Shen Yan, but his muscle strength was also greater!

This time, he refused to believe he would lose again!

Shen Yan drew his card before Wei Shanjia.

When it was his turn, Shen Yan leaped up and grabbed the horizontal bar, his body dangling.

As the assessment officer gave the start command, he used his arms and back simultaneously to propel his body upwards.

Chin too high.

Then his body fell, and his arms straightened again.

First action complete!

Shen Yan's movements were very precise.

The first fifteen sentences had almost no noticeable pauses.

After twenty repetitions, his arms and back gradually became sore and his movement speed began to decrease.

"Twenty-two!"

"Twenty-three!"

"Twenty-four!"

After completing the twenty-fourth one, Shen Yan tried to go up again.

This time, however, his chin didn't quite go over the bar.

There was no counting of the cadres being evaluated.

Shen Yan did not continue to hold on and let go, landing on the ground.

Twenty-four!

This achievement far surpasses that of most new recruits.

After Wei Shanjia finished reading, his eyes lit up.

Twenty-four!

He's confident he can surpass it!

When it was Wei Shanjia's turn, he leaped up and grabbed the horizontal bar.

"start!"

Wei Shanjia exerted force with both arms, and his body quickly rose upwards.

One!

two!

Three!

For the first twenty, Wei Shanjia's speed was no slower than Shen Yan's.

After the twenty-first one, his arm also began to tremble.

But he knew very well what was going on.

Shen Yan made twenty-four!

I must achieve twenty-five!

"Twenty-three!"

"Twenty-four!"

By the time he got to the twenty-fourth one, Wei Shanjia's face was already flushed.

My arms and back felt like they were being set on fire at the same time.

But he didn't let go.

One more is needed!

He only needs to do one more thing to beat Shen Yan!

Wei Shanjia hung on the horizontal bar, gritting his teeth.

The arms bent again.

Slowly lift your body upwards!

His movements were very slow.

However, there was no significant swing to leverage the momentum.

His chin eventually surpassed that of a horizontal bar!

"Twenty-five!"

The evaluation of cadres is announced in the form of results.

Wei Shanjia loosened his grip and jumped off the horizontal bar.

After landing, he first shook his sore arms.

Then he looked at Shen Yan.

The smile on her face could no longer be suppressed!

25 to 24!

One more!

He finally won!

"See that?"

Wei Shanjia said, panting:

"This is real upper body strength!"

"In the push-up exercise, you only got an advantage because you're thin."

"When it comes to the horizontal bar, where real strength is needed, that's where the advantage comes into play!"

Shen Yan nodded.

"There is indeed one more than me."

Hearing Shen Yan admit it himself, Wei Shanjia felt even more relieved.

After losing two games in a row, he finally managed to win one!

Ga Wa, standing to the side, said:

"Hey buddy, you just won one horizontal bar, why are you so happy like you've already won first place?"

"What do you know?"

Wei Shanjia said:

"This proves that Shen Yan can't beat me in every game!"

"Um!"

Ga Wa nodded earnestly.

"Winning one out of three, that's really impressive!"

The smile on Wei Shanjia's face gradually disappeared.

Can't this guy just shut up?

After the first three assessments were completed, the recorder began to tally the provisional scores.

Shen Yan won two first places and one second place.

Wei Shanjia ranked second twice and first once.

In terms of overall performance, Shen Yan still ranks ahead of Wei Shanjia.

Wei Shanjia can only be ranked second now.

A significant gap has already emerged between the other recruits and the two.

Even Gawa, who ranked third, was a whole section behind the other two!

They have taken a commanding lead!

Seeing this result, Wei Shanjia felt somewhat uneasy.

He's a national-level athlete!

Before joining the army, he always thought that the basic physical fitness test was an easy point for him.

When the actual assessment came, Shen Yan was firmly above him!

Keep in mind, this has only been a month!

In just one month, Shen Yan has made such terrifying progress!

If you give him more time, how outrageous will he become?

Wei Shanjia wouldn't even dare to dream of it!

Therefore, Wei Shanjia was determined to defeat Shen Yan in this assessment!

He knew very well that if he couldn't beat Shen Yan this time, he might never have another chance in his life!

"This is almost the final project!"

"The 3000 meters! The highest-scoring event!"

"I must win over Shen Yan!"
