“One-!”
“Two…”
At the martial arts competition, Wang Ye’s team of 30 people was brought to the horizontal bar arena in the afternoon.
It was still within the 400-meter track.
It was just opposite the battle arena in the morning, separated by a four-hundred-meter obstacle arena.
On the arena, Wang Ye held the horizontal bar in his hand and hung it above. After coming down, he pulled it up again.
Pull-ups required one to be unable to sway one’s body after reaching the standard.
Two soldiers would start the competition at the same time and there will be two lieutenants counting for each individuals.
At the same time, apart from those who were carrying surveillance cameras, there were also reporters from the regiment headquarters who were using their cameras.
In fact, he had interviewed Wang Ye in the morning after the division headquarters and the military reporters left.
But he didn’t leave after it ended.
In other words, Wang Ye was the highlight of this competition. He did not need to care about the other competition going on as his still had his colleagues to take photos, he planned to take photos of Wang Ye the entire time.
The truth was that his regiment commander had ordered him to do so…
Wang Ye could pull 48 pull-ups. This was the statistics that the regiment commander had given to the regiment headquarters when he saw the fourth company.
However, the current regiment commander had a lot of doubts about Wu Jian Feng.
He suspected that this guy was playing a surprise game for him, and there was a possibility that he was hiding something.
One had to know that there were only fifty-eight pull-ups in the entire division.
It seemed that the results were not much different from the ones reported for Wang Ye. The most important thing was that Wu Jian Feng had a history of not sharing the actual results.
Based on this, the regiment commander suspected that Wang Ye would be able to break this record again.
Therefore, he asked the reporters from the regiment headquarters to follow Wang Ye the entire time.
If Wang Ye really broke the record, the photos taken by the cameras at the scene would be much better than the photos taken later on in the surveillance video.
After all, the surveillance equipment was not professional, and the person was not a professional photographer.
If Wang Ye broke the record, then these photos of him would have to be taken out to promote and put into the team’s honor hall.
“Twenty- one…Twenty- two!”
On the horizontal bar, Wang Ye was still getting up and down, and on the side, his comrade from squad seven of the Fourth Company was doing the same.
However, he only did 18 now, and his face was already red.
Horizontal bars were not considered difficult even more veterans soldiers.
Being able to do twenty was already considered outstanding.
In a place like the Fourth Company, there were at least soldiers who could do
23 or 24.
Any more and it would be less.
An ordinary company wouldn’t have too many of them.
Of course, this was for the current standards.
If they could use their bodies to move their hands, there would be a lot more people who could do more than 30 people in one breath.
However, the results of the competition were the only thing that mattered now.
In the end, the comrade next door didn’t get up when he was twenty-four, and after falling behind, the effective score was only twenty-two.
The referee judged that he had swayed his body just now.
Of course, this was definitely something that Wang Ye had no time to care about.
He continued.
The morning report showed that in the morning assessment, the best results were forty-five.
Wang Ye was very confident in breaking this record.
However, Wang Ye really didn’t have the confidence to break the master record.
Unless the current Wang Ye had his current physical fitness and still had the weight he had when he first joined the army.
However, that was impossible. The current Wang Ye was already a little over 140 pounds.
At this weight, Wang Ye’s current limit was really less than 50.
Just like the individual tactics in the morning, the military competition was not based on the level of strength.
He was only based on military status. If you could join the army, you would basically have a chance to get a place in the martial arts competition.
In this situation, it was the same as the crawling tactic in the morning. Some minions would have the advantage.
However, all of this was because Wang Ye was not strong enough yet.
If Wang Ye’s current strength attribute could also reach the level of physical strength, then wouldn’t the master record be broken so easily?
“Forty-four…”
“Forty-five…”
The soldiers of the fourth and fifth companies were cheering. Every time Wang Ye did one, they would count and cheer.
However, the cannon company and heavy machine gun company were a little awkward. Their assessment had already ended.
It had to be said that carrying heavy machine guns and cannonballs really trained one’s hand strength. Among the fifteen of them, the best result was 39, and the worst result was 26. Among them, there were actually five who were above 30.
The glory from before was no longer enough for Wang Ye.
“Soon, soon, it’s already a tie. One more, one more and we’ll break the best record of the morning.” A soldier from the fifth company said excitedly.
Wang Ye naturally heard his words, but he didn’t have the time or energy to look around.
After taking two deep breaths, Wang Ye pulled up again.
Forty-six, haha, oh yeah, the results in the morning broke!”
On the side of the Fourth Company, everyone cheered.
Outside, the battalion commander patted Wu Jian Feng’s shoulder, his mouth almost crooked from laughing.
Yes, the battalion commander had just come over.
But now, he didn’t make a sound.
He was afraid that it would affect Wang Ye.
In fact, he stopped Kang Hua from cheering him on.
“Forty-seven…”
“One more…Alright…Forty-eight, go for it…One more…”
On the horizontal bar, Wang Ye was clearly already in an extremely strenuous state.
Their faces were flushed red. Every time they came down, they had to hang for two to three seconds to catch their breath before they could continue to climb up slowly.
Finally…
Forty-nine…Fifty!”
When the 50 people arrived, Wang Ye let go of the horizontal bar almost instantly and fell off.
This time, he had broken his limit.
Normally, he would only have 48 or 49 at most. Today, he could break through to 50, which could be considered to have entered a new field.
Wang Ye didn’t know if he could get first place in this segment.
However, it was definitely more hopeful than the individual segments in the morning.
After all, a skinny warrior would not have much stamina and strength.
If they were to pull thirty to forty people, it would definitely be difficult for them to continue.
The others continued to compete. After this event ended, they rested for another half an hour.
Half an hour later, the parallel bars competition continued in the neighboring arena.
There were also two people in a group, and there were also standard requirements. However, Wang Ye had no interest in breaking the record for this event.
The entire division recorded 398.
Wang Ye didn’t know how this record was set. It was much more exaggerated than the horizontal bar.
Up until now, he had barely passed 200 in one breath before he could not do it.
Under such circumstances, what could he use to break the record?
In fact, let alone breaking the record, Wang Ye knew that he had no hope of getting first place in this single segment.
In the morning, one soldier from the Third Regiment scored 228.
Wang Ye estimated that he might not even be able to keep the top three in this project..
However, Wang Ye was not flustered at all.
This was a competition of nine events, and the first place in a single event was nothing.
As for the others, Wang Ye was sure that they weren’t as well-rounded as him.
He could guarantee that his worst segment would definitely be in the top five, or even the top three. Others could not guarantee that.
For example, some of them could get first place in this project, but it was normal for them to fall to the middle level in the next project.
Not even ten fingers were of the same length. Even Wang Ye’s basic attributes were not balanced by the system, let alone the others.
“Hey, why didn’t you give us a surprise for these two projects?”
Seeing Wang Ye get off the parallel bars, the battalion commander turned his head to look at Wu Jian Feng with some dissatisfaction.
“All?” Wu Jian Feng was stunned.
“What? Don’t tell me you didn’t know about Wang Ye’s five-kilometer cross-country results before!”
“Haha, this… Well, would you believe me if I said 1 don’t know, Battalion Commander?” Wu Jian Feng chuckled.
The Second Battalion Commander glanced at him and said indifferently,”It doesn’t matter if I believe it or not. What matters is whether the leader believes it or not. Why don’t we go and find the leader now?”
No, no!” Wu Jian Feng slipped two meters away.
At this moment, Wang Ye also noticed the two of them.
He was panting and his hand hurt.
However, Wang Ye still couldn’t help but mutter in his heart.
Humans.. This was the reality!
When he broke the record in the morning, they were so attentive. They had already came to help him unload his bad and take his equipment before he managed to stand firm.
They had stood at the side laughing and cheering when they had broken the best result of the morning in the pull-ups just now. They had also come up to hand over water after the session.
But now that he had not broken the record, nor did he break the best record in the morning, these two fellows did not move at all.
Even now, they were not looking at him. Instead, they were laughing and joking.
Really…
At this moment, Wang Ye remembered a sentence from Journey to the West.
If there’s anything, it’s Little Tian Tian. If there’s nothing, it’s Mrs. Niu!
“Come, Wang Ye, drink some water!”
Fortunately, there were still people who were not as realistic as the two of them.
“Thank… Thank you, instructor!” Wang Ye wiped the sweat off his head and took it with a smile.
At this moment, Wang Ye sighed in his heart that the instructor was still more reliable. If those two fellows broke the record again later, he would definitely not mention them again in the interview. He would let them see their own reality…
“Number 230, the effective number of parallel bars is 202.”
At this moment, the referee also spoke.
“Sigh, what a pity, Old Wang. We’re only short of 20 or so!”
“Yeah, but don’t be discouraged. I think there’s still hope for the top three. Maybe it’ll be second place. Parallel bars practice one. 1 haven’t heard of anyone in our regiment who can do more than 200.”
“Although the one in the morning was good, 1 reckon that in our division, he’s probably the only one who’s powerful!”
On the side, the other warriors of the Fourth Company also came over to comfort Wang Ye.
This was the first time in the competition that Wang Ye had not taken first place on the surface. Even in the morning’s individual battle strategy, Wang Ye’s result was the best.
“Haha…” Wang Ye chuckled, “What are you guys thinking? How can 1 be discouraged?”
“Didn’t I say it before I went up? I definitely won’t be able to break the morning record.”
“You guys trained with me, so it’s not like you don’t know my situation!”
“Wang Ye, I’m here again!”
Suddenly, just as Wang Ye finished speaking, a female voice came from behind.
Wang Ye turned around and saw that it was a reporter from the division headquarters. Wang Xiao Fei had run over with a smile on her face.
“Reporter Xiao Fei, I didn’t break the record this time.” Wang Ye said with a smile.
This reporter was a first lieutenant, but she had asked Wang Ye to call her reporter Xiao Fei.
Wang Xiao Fei narrowed her eyes and smiled, “I know! But there are still other segment later!”
“Hmm?”
Wang Ye looked at her in confusion.
Wang Xiao Fei didn’t try to be mysterious. She just looked at the people around her, especially at the third segment officer who was leading Wang Ye and the others.
Then, she didn’t care. She turned around to look at Wang Ye and said, “You don’t know that your next task is 4.00 obstacles, do you?”
Uh…” Wang Ye was slightly stunned.
He really didn’t know, but the third segment officer on the side definitely knew, but he didn’t say it.
As for Wu Jian Feng and the battalion commander, Wang Ye had asked them in the morning, but they didn’t know how the division headquarters arranged the order of the competition.
At this moment, Wang Ye turned his head to look to the side.
He was looking at the third segment officer.
The officer was also looking at Wang Ye.
Seeing Wang Ye look over, he actually smiled and nodded.
The third segment officer led the team for today’s martial arts competition assessment. Logically speaking, he had to maintain a serious face to show his fairness.
However, facing Wang Ye, he made an exception.
After all, anyone with discerning eyes could see that Wang Ye’s future was boundless. Moreover, if he wanted to stay for four episodes, he might have returned to the division to take up his post before he retired.
He didn’t mind smiling at such a person to leave a good impression…
