Chapter 134 The Hardship of Special Training
In the early morning, before the dew had dried, the training grounds were shrouded in a thin, veil-like mist. The faint sunlight struggled to penetrate the dense cloud layer, shedding only a few faint, hazy rays, as if shrinking from the cruel and harsh training environment.
The team members, clad in weighty training gear, looked haggard yet radiant with determination. The intense training was like an invisible, heavy mountain, bearing down on their fragile shoulders, nearly suffocating them. Every all-out sprint felt like a race against the wind; every desperate fight felt like battling a ferocious beast; every arduous climb felt like scaling a sheer, precipitous cliff. This relentless training, like the claws of a demon, relentlessly tore at their bodies and minds, sapping their energy and strength.
Someone stumbled while running, the rough ground instantly rubbing their knees. Blood gushed out, staining their trouser legs like a burst of mournful flowers. Another twisted their waist during weight training, groaning in excruciating pain. The sound echoed across the empty training ground like a desperate wail. Pain, like a cunning and venomous snake, silently eroded the players' resolve and faith.
A team member named Xiaotao, exhausted from continuous high-intensity training, blacked out after a sprint and collapsed to the ground. This sudden incident made the surrounding team members feel even more panicked and helpless.
Another team member, Cuilan, was injured in an accident and had a broken arm. She sat on the ground, crying, "I really can't do this anymore. This is too painful."
Some of the team members began to reveal deep doubt and confusion in their eyes. They stared blankly at the seemingly endless training program, the once blazing fire in their hearts gradually dimming.
"Is this kind of special training really worth it? Can we really hold on?" A team member murmured to himself in a nearly exhausted voice, his voice filled with endless fatigue and hesitation, as if it was a desperate cry from the depths of his soul.
"I really want to give up. I feel like I'm stuck in a quagmire and there's no way I can complete such a difficult training." Another team member sobbed softly, tears streaming down his cheeks like a broken dam, making his already sweat-soaked face look even more disheveled.
At that moment, Concubine Su appeared before everyone's eyes like a dazzling ray of light. She was dressed in a simple yet dignified training uniform, her posture erect as a pine tree, her gaze as resolute as iron. Her seemingly delicate, willow-like frame, during training, erupted with astonishing strength, like a sleeping lion suddenly awakened.
Each of her movements was powerful and brimming with unparalleled explosive energy. Sweat dripped down her clothes, clung to her body, outlining her perfectly curvaceous figure. Yet, she paid no heed, remaining completely absorbed in her training, as if lost in a world of her own, her training, the clamor and chaos of the outside world irrelevant to her.
The team members were stunned, their eyes wide open, staring at Concubine Su in disbelief. No one had expected that the extremely noble Concubine Su would personally devote herself to such arduous and extraordinary special training.
"Look at how dejected you are now! You can't even bear this little bit of hardship, and yet you still talk about defending your country and bringing glory to the nation!" Concubine Su shouted angrily, her voice as loud as a bell, deafening and full of unquestionable majesty.
"I have fought alongside you and have never had the slightest intention of retreating. What excuse do you have to give up so easily!" Her gaze swept across every team member like a sharp sword, and her eyes burned with an indomitable flame that would never be extinguished, hot and scorching.
The team members were deeply moved by Concubine Su's words and actions, and their hearts were like a turbulent wave. Especially those who were originally wavering were now also infected by Concubine Su's spirit.
"Empress can endure hardships with us, so why can't we?" a team member shouted.
Cuilan, who was originally wavering, wiped away her tears, stood up, and said firmly: "I will not back down anymore, I will continue training!"
Concubine Su instructed everyone, "We are both soldiers, defending our country. For the sake of convenience, we can address each other according to our rank. Normally, we can call each other sisters, without so many formalities." Then, nodding and meeting the thoughtful older female soldier, she said, "Isn't that right, Sister Liu?"
The word "Sister Liu" frightened everyone, and the female soldier surnamed Liu even fell to her knees, "Your Majesty, you are too kind to me. I dare not agree!"
Concubine Su quickly squatted down and raised her hands, "Sister, please stand up, we are all sisters." Then she said loudly to everyone: "We are all sisters, right!" Everyone was stunned, and then burst into thunderous applause.
Encouraged by Concubine Su, the team members gritted their teeth, cast aside all fatigue and pain, and threw themselves back into the special training. They forgot the pain in their bodies and the fear in their hearts. At this moment, their hearts were filled with only one unshakable belief: to become warriors as tenacious as steel and invincible.
From then on, the sounds of retreat and hesitation were no longer heard on the special training grounds, only resounding steps and passionate shouts. Under the guidance and inspiration of Concubine Su, this women's team gradually forged a fighting spirit as strong as steel, like a phoenix reborn from the ashes, ready to spread its wings and soar into the sky. Military discipline within the team was strict, and the atmosphere of harmony and unity among the team members grew stronger.
