Chapter 9 School Competitions (Part I)
After night and day devil training, everyone finally ushered in the final big test.
Early that morning, a crowd of chicks was gathered in the central square, and the original number of 120 had already been reduced by half.
Wu Zhan stood in the first row of the Jiazi battalion at this time, which he had won through three years of unremitting efforts, and now he was sixteen years old, his originally round face had become angular, a pair of clear and innocent eyes were full of essence, his tall and vigorous posture did not have a piece of fat, and his thick arms and bulging chest muscles all showed his martial arts and strength.
On the other hand, Qing'er was still standing in the last row of the T-shaped camp at this time, and the gap in physical fitness made her unable to achieve Wu Zhan's general results no matter how hard she tried, but she was able to persist until the end and was not eliminated, which also shows her extraordinary perseverance and determination, coupled with her bumpy figure, white and red face, revealing a charming girlish atmosphere everywhere.
The deputy commander Ying Che stood in front of the table, proudly facing everyone, and behind him was in charge of teaching various subjects.
This Ying Che is a royal family, more than forty years old this year, tall, sword eyebrows, I saw him dressed in black clothes, wearing a jade crown, holding a bronze sword hilt hanging from his waist in one hand, and the other hand across his abdomen, quite a princely and noble demeanor.
"Since the founding of the country, my Great Qin has been trying to survive in the hostility between Rong Di and other countries, we have to grab land with Rong Di, and we have to guard against the joint attack of the six countries, how can we survive? Of course, it is the sword and indomitable fighting spirit in the hands of the Qin people, and the inexhaustible blood and loyalty of the Qin people. ”
Ying Che said impassionedly: "Since Xiaogong adopted the Shang Martingale Method, my Qin State has made great efforts to govern the country, emphasizing agriculture and mulberry, and awarding military merits. After several generations of kings worked hard, the current state of Qin has become the most powerful country among the nations. You should be glad and proud. ”
"Great Qin Wannian! Great Qin 10,000 years! Great Qin 10,000 years! ”
Everyone on the stage raised their arms and shouted, and the sound resounded through the world.
Ying Che raised his hand slightly, and waited until the scene returned to calm before continuing: "However, the six countries never want my Qin country to be strong, let alone see our Qin people live and work in peace and contentment, they are always thinking about how to plunder my Qin land and kill my Qin people, can we agree?" ”
"No! Don't say yes! The crowd responded.
"Excellent! We won't say yes! You and the others have lost their families because of the war, and you and the six countries have a blood feud that is not shared, and you are the elite of my Qin country, now, let me see the real material of your wait! After winning the words, "Cang Chang" pulled out the matching sword and pointed obliquely at the top of his head.
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
The fierce drums sounded like thunder in the sky.
The big exam finally kicked off with the sound of drums.
In this big test, the twelve best results were selected from the sixty chicks left on the field as the final winner, and the success rate was only five to one, and the winner's reward was the chance to continue to live and the identity of the Nether Guard, although cruel, but this is the reality.
The first round of the competition is to run, requiring all candidates to wear armor, bow and crossbow, long sword and bronze shield, and the weight of a piece of equipment is at least forty or fifty pounds, and the candidates need to break through the finish line in the shortest time to win.
In this round of competition, half of the players will be eliminated and only the top 30 will be promoted.
Qing'er is most afraid of this kind of competition, she feels that she is struggling to walk, how can she run? I also have to compete with a lot of excellent results on the field.
Alas, it seems that he is destined to be eliminated this time! Qing'er sighed in her heart, and couldn't help but start to despair.
Every time she was desperate, she couldn't help but look at Wu Zhan, the partner with whom she had the closest relationship.
It's a pity that Qing'er didn't find Wu Zhan in the crowd this time.
"Is the girl looking for me?" Wu Zhan's voice suddenly sounded in her ears, naughty and full of warmth.
Qing'er's shoulders trembled slightly, and then she turned her head to meet Wu Zhan's gaze, and said with tears in her eyes: "Why don't you go to prepare for the competition and come here?" ”
Wu Zhan smiled slightly, and said, "I'll see if No. 119 Chick needs help, if unfortunately she is eliminated, won't I have a lot less joy in the future?" ”
"You don't have a straight shape for a day." Qing'er gave Wu Zhan a big roll of his eyes, and then said seriously: "Don't care about me, you will play your best in a while, I believe that with your current strength, it will definitely not be a problem to win the top three." ”
"The ranking is not what I like!" Wu Zhan looked at the finish line in the distance, then turned his head to stare at the lovely person in front of him, and silently added in his heart: You are what I like the most.
Being stared at by the opposite sex, Qing'er couldn't help lowering her head, and said in a voice like a mosquito: "I am not destined to run into the top thirty this time, you remember, don't care about me." ”
Wu Zhan smiled freely and did not answer.
Just then, the gavel smashed on the gong with a loud bang, and the game finally began.
A group of heavily armed chicks heard the sound and rushed towards the finish line at full speed.
When the gong was struck, Wu Zhan suddenly stepped forward, picked up Qing'er, who was dazed, and carried it on his shoulders, letting Qing'er struggle to protest, he had already thrown off his two long legs and rushed out.
The equipment of the two people, plus Qing'er's weight, must weigh one hundred and seventy or eighty pounds, and Wu Zhan ran with wind on the soles of his feet, and soon surpassed several people.
Xin Jiaoxi, Guo Jiaoxi and others who watched from the sidelines were all stunned.
"Didn't this kid have a foul?" One of the instructors asked with his mouth wide open.
"Which rule says you can't carry someone else to the race?" Xin Jiaoxi stared at Wu Zhan's running figure and retorted, but he secretly marveled in his heart that this kid's super-intensive training in the past few years has had a remarkable effect.
"I'm afraid this kid didn't have a drug!" Guo Jiaoxi, who was on the side, swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and said without blinking.
"Dangdang Dang"
A string of gongs sounded, and at the end of the first round of the competition, Wu Zhan carried Qing'er and ran a good ranking of the fifteenth, which made everyone's jaws drop.
After a lot of teaching, discussion and judgment, it was finally determined that Wu Zhan was not a foul, and gave him the fifteenth place, Qing'er became the sixteenth, and the two of them were both promoted, and the original thirtieth place became the thirty-first place, so they had no choice but to leave.
After Qing'er heard the results, she held back her tears of excitement, took out a brocade from her arms, carefully wiped the sweat beads from her forehead for Wu Zhan, and scolded him for being a fool in her mouth.
Wu Zhan let Qing'er wipe his sweat for him, but he didn't know if it was because the exercise was too intense or for some reason, his previously fair face turned red.
The second round of the competition is shooting, only to see a hanging log on the shooting range, dozens of walnut-sized copper rings are hung on the hanging wood with fine hemp rope, and the teachers on the side use a long bamboo pole to pluck the copper rings, and the candidates must shoot the swinging copper rings in the shortest possible time, each person has ten arrows, and the one who shoots the most wins.
With the level of the people on the field who practice shooting on weekdays, this level is not difficult, but the difficulty is that after the shooting is put in the running, the people who have just finished the intense exercise are sweating profusely, panting like a cow, and their hearts are racing, how can they play the level of practice in the past?
In this round of competition, the ten people who have shot the least copper ring will be eliminated.
"Everyone, prepare!" One of the instructors raised the command flag in his hand, broke off with a shout, and said, "Shoot!" ”
"Whoosh ......"
Countless bolts whizzed towards the wobble brass ring.
Wu Zhan couldn't help but shake because of the fierce operation he had just now, and his arm holding the crossbow couldn't help but tremble at this time, on the other hand, Qing'er on the side, because he was lying on Wu Zhan's shoulder without vigorous exercise, his performance at this time was better than anyone else.
Wu Zhan closed his eyes, picked up the technique of breathing taught to him by his father, took a deep breath, pressed it on his chest, and then sank into the dantian, gradually, his arms no longer trembled, and his heartbeat gradually became stable.
In this round of competition, Wu Zhan shot the nine rings, and Qing'er hit the ten rings, but fortunately, both of them advanced.
After two rounds of competition, there were only twenty people left on the field.
The third round of the competition is martial arts, everyone duels in pairs, draws lots to determine the opponent, the winning ten people directly advance, the defeated ten people compete again, five people are promoted, and five people are eliminated.
Although there is also a certain element of luck in this round of competition, it is also difficult to advance without a certain strength.
Everyone gathered in front of a teacher, and each person took out a bamboo stick from the bamboo tube in the teacher's hand, and each bamboo stick had words written on it, which were "A, B, C, D, E, G, G, XIN, NON, and DEC". Every two bamboo sticks have the same text on them, and the person who draws the same character is the opponent.
Wu Zhan drew the word "Ding", but he didn't show it to anyone, but quietly walked to Qing'er and asked in a low voice, "What lottery did you draw?" ”
Qing'er glanced at the words on the bamboo stick again, and confirmed: "癸字!" ”
Wu Zhan said softly: "It's okay, maybe your opponent is weak!" ”
Qing'er is a dumb person who eats coptis, and he knows his suffering. Her physique has not been very good, almost all the rest of the people on the field are men with big shoulders and thick waists, only herself and Feng Fei are two women, this Feng Fei has been mixed in the Jiazi camp all the year round, she has to look good, she has to be able to have ability, she has completely relied on her ability to break through to the present, and if she doesn't have Wu Zhan's help, I'm afraid that the first level will be eliminated......
Seeing Qing'er's embarrassed face, Wu Zhan lowered his voice and said, "Don't be afraid, there is me!" ”
"What can I do with you? Do you want to play for me? Qing'er said in despair.
Seeing the despair on her face, Wu Zhan couldn't help but smile and said, "Maybe that's not enough!" ”
"The person who draws the first word is on the field!" A teacher shouted.
Immediately, two people walked to the field with weapons in hand, and after teaching and testing the bamboo sticks in their hands, they said to the two people on the field: "There are no rules for the competition, until one of them falls, but it must not hurt people's lives, do you understand?" ”
"Understood!" The two of them then nodded yes.
"Let's go!" The teacher gave an order, and the two on the field immediately fought together.
