The motivation for the competition comes from the outstanding results. Originally, there were still thirty or forty people on the field who were persisting.
As the circle around the martial arts arena ended, the recruits ranked fifth and sixth, seeing no hope of surpassing them, began to make plans to withdraw.
There is a police officer monitoring the edges of the field every five hundred meters.
For new recruits participating in the competition, once the pace falls below five minutes, the police will remind them. If they cannot pick up the speed by running another 500 meters, they will persuade them to leave, record their numbers, and calculate their rankings.
The first four are too powerful.
The top three are the rankings with the most points, which can widen the gap between them and the fourth place. This is a way of motivation, but it also makes the recruits who have no hope of surpassing them gradually withdraw from the game.
Because the score difference between fourth place, eighth place, and tenth place is not big, instead of persisting, it is better to withdraw from the game and rest to reserve energy for the next evaluation subjects.
At the end of the lap, the new recruits who had already been unable to withstand the challenge left one after another.
Only Chen Ming was still fighting against those three.
In the annual competition for recruits, the subject of extreme weight-bearing running is said to be extreme. It can be completed by running one lap at the longest distance, which takes about an hour, which is almost the same as the time taken by the basic queue display.
However, because of the four of them, the time occupied by this item was suddenly increased.
On the field.
Chen Ming also reached his limit. During this assessment, he did not use any potions to assist him. He only focused on his own ability.
On the competition field, Chen Ming didn't want to be special because he was the chosen one and the lucky one of the system. It wasn't that he was arrogant, but that he finally met three powerful guys. He also wanted to see who was better.
The result is obvious. If under certain conditions, he will definitely not be able to do it, and he may not even have a chance to win the top three, such as the 100-meter sprint and the 300-meter hurdles.
However, the heavy weight on their backs, the rugged terrain in the running team, and Chen Ming's familiarity with all the powerful skills on the court, repeatedly interrupted their rhythm.
This is very uncomfortable.
As the lap ended, Yang Shengli, who was in fourth place, saw that he was four or five meters behind the third place, but he still couldn't catch up. He knew very well that his condition was at the end of his strength, and there was no point in continuing to use up his energy.
He looked back and saw that there was no one behind him. His ranking in fourth place was already stable. He decisively stopped and walked towards the police officer on duty.
He quits.
Li Kaizhao, who ranked third, thought twice and quit decisively. As an athlete, knowing how to measure gains and losses is the most basic competition strategy.
The extreme weight-bearing running is not the last final event. There is no need to insist on it, just get the ranking.
Only Chen Ming, who was at the front, and Ye Qingwen, who was in second place, were left on the field.
When he noticed that the two people behind him were withdrawing, Ye Qingwen's eyes flickered for a moment, and he adjusted his breathing and exerted force again, trying to seize the first position and overtake Chen Ming from the left.
But as soon as he made a move, Chen Ming intentionally or unintentionally shifted to the left again, controlling the innermost side and blocking his overtaking route at any time.
Faced with such a scoundrel, Ye Qingwen let out a long sigh. He was blocked just now when he still had physical strength. Now even if he wanted to go around, he couldn't hold on anymore.
Seeing that there was no hope of transcendence, Ye Qingwen decisively stopped.
In an instant, only Chen Ming was still running on the field.
quiet! !
The place was as stunned as an eyeball in silence.
There are only a few new recruits in the artillery brigade at the martial arts field, only more than 400 people.
But there are more than 4,000 people in the training center. No one expected that in the first individual competition, the ones who persisted to the end were not the three top physical fitness players who had been the most vocal in the past month or so.
Instead, he was completely tortured by a strange recruit.
At this time, all the recruits in the training center on the martial arts field looked at Chen Ming who was still running, and looked as complicated as a dog that had just died, not to mention how tired they were.
"Damn, who is he? Why is he number one?"
"Hey, it's useless to rely on others. If I had known better, I would have been more insistent."
"Stop putting gold on your face. Your insistence is useless. Ye Qingwen doesn't insist anymore even if you don't look at it. You are just relying on the field, not insisting."
"We are still good friends even if we see through it or not. If you are so straightforward, I can't communicate with you anymore."
Unlike the sharp drop in morale at the training center, the artillery brigade cheered loudly because Chen Ming won first place.
At this time, Zhao Lifei's already swollen hands were on his hips, and his head was raised high. Looking at his posture, anyone who took a breath could reach the sky.
There's nothing you can do about it, it's really cool.
Class 1 of the Second Brigade, in the first individual soldier competition, Chen Ming took first place, and Ma Dazhu took the 28th place. It was hard to think whether he was awesome or not.
If Chen Ming's results made Zhao Lifei excited, then Tang Zhen felt satisfied.
On the parade stage.
Chen Ming achieved first place, so naturally he was not in the eyes of major leaders. He ran with extreme weight and ranked first every year.
What surprised them was that everyone else had left, but Chen Ming still didn't stop. Not only did he not stop, his speed actually got faster and faster.
Yes, this is intentional.
Of course Chen Ming knew that when the second place player retired, he would be able to rest and secure first place.
He is not stupid, he knows that if he continues to run, he will not score more points, but this is a rare opportunity to perform.
The most intuitive self-awareness brought about by his past life experience and age is that he is not so noble and will take advantage of opportunities when he seizes them.
The last time the brigade commander passed the recruit company was like this, and it is still the same this time.
What better opportunity could there be, under the attention of thousands of people, with the military leaders and the No. 1s of each unit present?
There was no one else on the field.
He's the only one on the huge outer runway. If you don't look at him, who should you look at?
When Chen Ming retired in second place, he decisively used the physical potion, which not only increased his physical strength by 5%, but also refreshed his own status.
Of course he wouldn't expect to run a little longer and impress the big leaders on the stage.
Even if it leaves a better impression, even if the leader of the military region says, "This little comrade is here."
If he wants to advance in the future and compete for any spot, he will have more opportunities.
As the dean of a sports school in his previous life, he understood that opportunities often existed, or even existed all the time, but this was only for a small number of people.
Most people have to rely on luck to catch and touch.
He now belongs to most of the categories. If he doesn't catch him this time, who knows when the next time will be.
"Haha, little comrade is so motivated that he doesn't know how to save some energy to prepare for the next competition." Tang Zhen criticized with a smile.
But that expression didn't look like criticism at all, more like showing off.
Even Luo Wentong, Commander of the 71st Army, and Changjiang Zhenjun, Army Chief of Staff of the Eastern Theater Command, turned their heads and looked at the stadium with slightly narrowed eyes when they heard this.
These big leaders naturally understand Chen Ming's thoughts, but being able to show off and fight for them is a good thing after all.
Is it possible that the legions, which number tens of thousands at every turn, expect their leaders to peel away the ordinary appearance of all the recruits and discover the rare and valuable essence?
That's not nonsense.
Therefore, the military encourages you to show your ability when you have it. Don’t hide it. No one will know until the end. When it’s time to retire, pick up your baggage and get out.
Seeing Chen Ming running on the field for five or six minutes and still not exhausted, Jiang Zhenjun chuckled: "Well, tell the comrades on the police to record the results and tell him not to run."
"Old Tang is right, save your energy for the next one, haha. Originally, Lieutenant Chai came here to interview three young comrades athletes in the new training center."
"When I came here, I was still writing a plan and planning the details of the interviews. I didn't expect that Old Tang would have another young comrade here to interview."
Although Jiang Zhenjun is also a senior colonel, he is the chief of army staff of the Dazheng Military Region, and his orders are issued.
The police officers on standby in the distance quickly informed Chen Ming that he could stop. After all, he kept running, and he couldn't start the next subjects.
"Let's take a twenty-minute intermission, let this little comrade rest."
Luo Wentong ordered with a smile.
The other leaders on the parade stand stood up and prepared to walk around. Only Tang Zhen glanced at the Lieutenant Chai whom Jiang Zhenjun mentioned just now, that is, the female officer who came with the military leaders holding a camera.
"My surname is Chai, and I came here with Lao Jiang." Tang Zhen thought about it for a while and then laughed.
Because he remembered that the political commissar of the Eastern War Zone was also named Chai, and the political commissar's granddaughter heard that she worked in the Cultural Propaganda Department of the war zone.
It seems that this year's recruit selection has a large impact.
