Chapter 148 Morning Practice
At 5:50, there were only ten minutes left before the meeting time.
When Wei Zi tried to get out of bed, Xi Yu called out to her again, and after receiving another vague reply, she smiled and said to Ruan Zilu, "Wei Zi, don't rush. Let's go to the playground to meet up first."
"Wouldn't this be a bit inappropriate? There will be punishment if we're late..." Ruan Zilu couldn't bear it. She took a breath, made up her mind, and called Wei Zi to get up again, this time gently pushing her body with her hand.
Wei Zi rolled over and immediately launched into a tirade of scolding: "You're so annoying! Didn't I tell you I know?! Why do you keep yelling like that!"
Startled by her angry shout, Ruan Zilu shrank back in fear and instinctively tried to apologize, but suddenly someone pulled her arm from behind, making her forget what she was going to say.
Xi Yu pulled Ruan Zilu to her side and said to Wei Zi with cold eyes, "There are eight minutes and twenty seconds left until the assembly time. If you don't want to be punished, you'd better get up now."
After saying that, she pulled Ruan Zilu out of the room first, leaving Wei Zi looking completely bewildered.
After a few seconds of stunned silence, Wei Zi suddenly snapped out of it. She cursed under her breath and rushed into the bathroom to wash up.
The Imperial Military Academy is the largest military academy in the country, with dormitories about a kilometer away from the parade ground. Wei Zi needs to hurry, or she might miss the assembly time.
Xi Yu believed that if a person lacked self-awareness, they shouldn't expect help from others, so she didn't care whether Wei Zi was punished. However, Ruan Zilu was kind-hearted and kept looking towards the dormitory during the assembly to make sure Wei Zi had made it.
Wei Zi was lucky enough to reach the playground in the last thirty seconds, and Ruan Zilu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"You guys are so mean! Why did you leave without waiting for me? We're all roommates, your indifference is so disheartening!" Wei Zi shouted angrily in a low voice, still mindful of her image despite the presence of other people around.
Xi Yu raised her eyes to look at her, and her cold gaze made Wei Zi subconsciously feel afraid. Although she didn't say a word, it made Wei Zi's mouth open and close, and she swallowed all her complaints.
"Don't do that again next time!" Wei Zi said stubbornly, then turned around and obediently joined the queue. Xi Yu's gaze always made her feel uneasy, so she made an excuse to avoid him.
Xi Yu lowered her eyes slightly. Although she was dissatisfied with Wei Zi's behavior, they were in the same dormitory room after all, so she didn't intend to go too far, provided that the other party didn't push her luck.
The morning's minor disturbance passed quickly, and at six o'clock sharp, the alarm bell rang three times, signaling the official start of training!
The early morning training consists of basic physical exercises, and there is no need to separate students by department; all students train at the same time.
The physical training at military academy is three times more difficult than the training in the senior year of high school, and the time is halved, leaving some freshmen who are not used to it exhausted and panting.
Wei Zi was one of them. She had played too wildly last night and now felt exhausted and a little out of breath.
She glared resentfully at the retreating figures of Xi Yu and Ruan Zilu running ahead, a sense of grievance welling up within her.
Xi Yu sensed the malice coming from behind her. She shook her head inwardly and decided to ignore Wei Zi's life or death. She didn't have the habit of trying to win someone's favor.
An hour later, Xi Yu completed her physical training, including a 10-kilometer run, push-ups, and pull-ups, without showing any signs of fatigue.
