The high school team was genuinely afraid that all these rookies would be eliminated. Given Tang Ming's temperament, he was absolutely capable of doing such a thing!
"Look, Tan Xiaolin is coming out too," Tang Ming said, leaning against the railing and pointing at Tan Xiaolin.
As Tang Ming had predicted, Tan Xiaolin became the second person to take the lead.
He Chenguang led the male soldiers, while Tan Xiaolin led the female soldiers.
Their methods were remarkably similar, because they both hesitated for a long time before finally deciding to eat rat meat.
Tan Xiaolin and He Chenguang acted swiftly and brutally, killing the rats with their stabbings and then roughly cutting off a piece of flesh with their military knives and chewing it.
Clearly, Tan Xiaolin was in great pain while chewing; several times, she almost vomited.
She felt the lingering warmth of the dead rat in her hands, felt the warm blood flowing over them, and then savored the taste of the blood-stained rat meat in her mouth.
Tan Xiaolin managed to hold on and didn't vomit.
Seeing this, some of the newbies finally stepped forward, following the crowd.
The male soldiers, in particular, saw that Tan Xiaolin had already eaten a piece of raw rat meat. If they didn't eat it too, they would definitely be eliminated soon.
Most of the newbies are afraid of being eliminated, so they choose to step forward, dissect rats with a ferocious expression, and eat the rat meat raw.
But not long after they started, Tang Ming, who had been watching from the back, suddenly stepped forward.
Seeing this, the high school team instantly sensed something was wrong!
Just now, his stopwatch went off. Could it be that Tang Ming was going to eliminate those who didn't make a choice within the allotted time?
But Tang Ming showed him with his actions that he was overthinking things.
"You don't even need to learn how to eat yet?" Tang Ming slowly walked forward and looked at the group of newbies as he spoke.
Upon hearing this, the newbies were all taken aback.
"You've wasted such a perfectly good game of wild game. You've wasted at least a quarter, maybe even a third, of the meat from that rat!"
After saying that, Tang Ming stepped forward and grabbed one of the mice that was struggling the most in the cage.
Tang Ming took out the military knife from his waist, and as if he hadn't exerted any strength at all, he gently placed the knife on the rat's body.
A gash was quickly made on the rat's body. Tang Ming's cut was very precise. This cut only damaged the rat's fur and did not harm the flesh and bones inside.
Tang Ming pressed the military knife sideways onto the rat's body, and then pulled hard.
The rookies were stunned and speechless. Even the senior team members behind them were greatly shocked by Tang Ming's swordsmanship!
Tang Ming then peeled off the rat's skin as easily as taking off clothes.
Tang Ming carried out the entire process very quickly, from catching the mouse to skinning it, it only took him less than five seconds!
What surprised everyone the most was that not a single drop of blood flowed from the rat's body; the entire rat was completely unharmed.
One stroke, one pull, one tug!
The entire rat skin was torn off as smoothly as silk, and Tang Ming did not damage a single bone or flesh inside during the entire process.
After skinning the rat, Tang Ming picked it up by the tail and showed it to everyone.
Actually, those newbies are right. If you really eat like Shi Dafan, you will definitely ingest some parasites.
But in the wild, when you're about to starve to death, you can't worry about that anymore.
"When conditions permit, it's best to process raw meat properly."
Tang Ming, holding the rat, began to say, "But the way I'm dealing with it isn't what you're thinking, like roasting or boiling it. That would only give away our location."
"Special forces soldiers are in much better physical condition than normal people. Under normal circumstances, these parasites do not pose a threat to special forces soldiers. However, if we are fighting behind enemy lines and run out of rations, our immunity and resistance will naturally decrease."
"If you eat these parasite-containing foods at this time, your health will likely be affected. If eating these things causes us to get diarrhea, how will you complete your mission?"
The newbies remained silent and did not speak.
If we're talking about logic, they all understand it in their hearts!
But... what can they do when things really come to that? If they don't eat soon, they'll all die. At a point like this, who can care about anything else?
Although the newbies were complaining in their hearts, they didn't dare to show it at all.
Tang Ming carried the mouse and walked around in front of each of the newbies, letting them take a good look at the mouse in his hand.
Do you know where the bacteria on a rat come from?
Tang Ming walked up to the group of newbies once again and asked with a half-smile.
Clearly, this is another question that could cost you your life!
Of course, if you answer correctly, that's another story.
None of the newbies dared to speak, fearing that if they uttered a single wrong word, they would receive a good scolding from Tang Ming.
The entire arena fell silent instantly. The rookies looked at each other, but no one spoke.
This scene was all within Tang Ming's expectations.
Tang Ming glanced at the rookies with disdain and said, "You guys want to be special forces soldiers? To be honest, you shouldn't waste your time here. You might as well go home and feed the pigs."
"To want to be a special forces soldier like this, and even a king of soldiers? That's a huge joke."
After launching a psychological attack on the newbies, Tang Ming nodded in satisfaction.
As expected, it was effective. By simply using psychological attacks, some people were unable to withstand it and chose to withdraw.
Tang Ming looked at the remaining rookies and said, "The bacteria on rats are carried by their skin, while the parasites are mainly in their blood. If you cut them open like Shi Dafan and the others did, it's easy to infect the rat meat."
The assistant instructors who had been gloating behind Tang Ming suddenly became embarrassed.
"Shi Dafan, you all listen up." Tang Ming, carrying the dead rat, turned to look at Shi Dafan and his group.
"Yes!"
Several instructors shouted in unison, and then listened attentively with serious expressions.
"To avoid bacteria and parasites, our best approach is to keep the meat completely dry, minimizing contamination to the maximum extent possible."
After hearing Tang Ming's words, the rookies lowered their heads and hesitated.
Tang Ming made it sound so easy, but if they were actually to put it into practice...
Brain: "I got it."
Hand: "You know nothing!
"Stay calm, it's not difficult to skin the rat."
As Tang Ming spoke, he used his military knife to cut the rat. The rookies, who had expected a bloody scene, looked at Tang Ming with surprise.
Unexpectedly, the flesh that Tang Ming cut out was so translucent that you could hardly see any blood on it!
If the newbies hadn't seen with their own eyes that Tang Ming had personally cut this piece of meat from a rat, they would have thought that Tang Ming was holding a sashimi!
Looking at the glistening piece of rat meat in Tang Ming's hand, and then looking down at what they themselves had made, the difference was like night and day.
He Chenguang's hands were covered in blood, as were Tan Xiaolin's.
Slow down and focus? Is that how you achieve what Tang Ming did?
Without even a second thought, they definitely can't achieve that.
Tang Ming quickly cut the rat meat into small pieces and then arranged them in a row, which at first glance gave people a very high-class feeling.
After finishing processing the rat, Tang Ming picked up a piece of rat meat and threw it into his mouth.
After Tang Ming's treatment, how could there be any bloodshed in these pieces of rat meat? They would believe it if you told them it was food from a high-end restaurant!
The visual difference was significant, which made the newbies present feel less resistant.
"Instructor, may I try a piece?" Shen Lanni stepped forward and reported to Tang Ming.
Tang Ming nodded and allowed Shen Lanni to come over, giving her a piece of rat meat.
Although the piece of rat meat looked clean, Shen Lanni ate it with a ferocious expression, as if she were about to be executed.
But Shen Lanni's expression didn't last long, because later on, her expression relaxed.
Even after Shen Lanni finished eating, she still wanted to ask Tang Ming for another piece: "Chief Instructor, could... could you give me another piece? I think it tastes pretty good."
"Go do it yourself," Tang Ming said coldly.
With the guidance of He Chenguang and Tan Xiaolin, and with Tang Ming's final preparations, the rookies finally overcame the obstacle in their hearts.
With Tang Ming's final move setting the stage, the newbies instantly felt encouraged.
"Chief Instructor, please teach us how to eat rat meat! We all want to learn!"
"My stomach is already growling! Head Instructor, could you please teach us one more time?"
The newbies all looked at Tang Ming with expectant eyes and pleaded.
Then, Tang Ming brought out another mouse and dissected it again in front of the rookies.
Everyone on the field was completely absorbed in watching Tang Ming wield the knife... It was a pure enjoyment, as if Tang Ming were sculpting a work of art.
With Tang Ming's example, the novices began to follow suit.
But they couldn't be as quick and efficient as Tang Ming. Tang Ming could deal with a mouse in less than a minute, while they would take more than ten minutes.
After hearing what Tang Ming said, even the high school team members in the back couldn't help but secretly admire him.
"I didn't expect Old Tang's knife skills to be so amazing. And what he said really makes a lot of sense. If we eat like this, we are very likely to attract parasites." Shi Dafan said thoughtfully, resting his chin on his hand.
"Do you think we should pick a time to visit Tang Ming together, and secretly learn these things from him?"
"This is the difference between people... Does Tang Ming have any flaws? I never expected him to be so skilled with a knife."
The assistant instructors were whispering and discussing amongst themselves.
Time passed second by second, and every newbie ended up with some rat meat in their hands.
When the high school team looked at the rookies again, they couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.
Why do we watch them eat rat meat as if they're enjoying some kind of delicacy?
Why do they have this feeling that they've missed something?
Looking at the glistening slices of meat in the hands of the newbies, Shi Dafan and his companions couldn't help but drool.
