Section 9

During training, A Xiu caught sight of her cousin in the stands and joyfully steered her black bird mech, stumbling and swaying as she flew towards Sun Xuelin. However, her skills were truly lacking; in a moment of carelessness, bang, the head of the black bird collided with a metal pipe suspended in mid-air. In a state of panic, A Xiu let out a startled cry that echoed throughout the room

It felt as if something was blocking Ye Chong's heart. Throughout the many years, Ye Chong remembered only experiencing this feeling when his father passed away. Is this what sadness is? Ye Chong quietly asked himself

However, the air was filled with various oddly shaped obstacles, which greatly slowed down Sun Xuelin's speed. Watching her cousin Xiubiao getting closer to the ground while she herself was still far away, Sun Xuelin felt a surge of anxiety that nearly brought her to tears

Mu Shang then took out a detailed parameter sheet: "Ye Zi, this is the training requirement I have set based on the performance specifications of your Black Bird. You should follow the requirements outlined here from now on"

The way this sentence is spoken carries a certain flavor of an unparalleled master, exuding an air of lofty solitude, which momentarily stirred Ye Chong's emotions, leaving him unable to contain himself

The room contains a vast open space, where various obstacles are arranged in a regular pattern. Cousin Xiu is struggling to navigate through them, moving slowly.

Ye Zhong appeared to be deep in thought

Ye Chong had no time to think further; the chaotic obstacles made him feel as if he had returned to the hunting ground, where garbage stood in disarray. The key movements he had practiced diligently for a week suddenly surfaced in his mind. Ye Chong seemed to have an epiphany, and instinctively began to operate in an orderly manner, neither hurried nor slow, yet the speed of his hands was significantly slower than usual

This exclamation also startled Ye Chong, who was lost in thought not far away, just in time to see a black bird, identical to his own, plummeting from the sky to the ground

Ye Zhong found a deserted place and quietly stayed there for a day

Xiu, the cousin, is the daughter of my second aunt and has been very close to Sun Xuelin since childhood. Recently, Xiu has not passed the driving test for the light armor several times, so my second aunt thought of Sun Xuelin's father, Sun Haining, hoping that he could provide some guidance. However, Sun Haining is usually very busy, and more often than not, the task of providing guidance falls on Sun Xuelin.

Oh, there are still people over there

The sudden exclamation startled Sun Xuelin, who had been focused on YC, just in time to see her cousin Xiu's light armor plummeting from mid-air towards the ground. Sun Xuelin thought to herself that this was not good; Xiu had always been timid and physically weak, which made her keep a respectful distance from the light armor. If she were to be frightened this time, it could not only lead to a serious illness but might also leave a psychological shadow, causing her to develop a fear of piloting the light armor in the future. In an instant, Sun Xuelin on the viewing platform immediately summoned the Shadow Phoenix, sharply increased the speed to the maximum, and rushed towards Xiu, hoping to catch her before she hit the ground.

Ye Zhong's gaze instinctively darted towards the holographic brain, but he was momentarily stunned

Ye Zi, with your understanding and foundation, completing the basic training is not actually a difficult task; on the contrary, it may be quite easy! However, if you are only satisfied with that level, you will never be able to drive me

Ye Zhong looked at the statistics on the black bird and couldn't help but furrow his brow slightly. It was still just a little short, clearly just a bit away from meeting Mu's standards. Yet, it was this tiny margin that he could not count how many times he had tried and still failed to break through.

Through calculations, it is evident that 99.328% of advanced movements are derived from these so-called fundamental movements. This demonstrates that fundamental movements are the essence of all martial arts techniques

Is this what they mean by hard work pays off? Sun Xuelin murmured to herself

Although repeated failures left her feeling quite dejected, she still did not give up, encouraging herself to face failures time and again like YC did

The basic training area has only a few individuals. Since the effects of awareness training are not significant for basic training subjects, actual operational progress is much faster, which is why very few people come to the basic training area. Additionally, most people have already learned these foundational aspects at a very young age, resulting in even fewer individuals visiting.

These days, she has been desperately searching every day, having almost explored all the rooms in the battle zone, yet she has never encountered that enigmatic YC again

This is a placeholder text.

When the black bird was still three meters above the ground, Ye Zhong swiftly caught it, then gradually reduced its speed and glided for a distance before Ye Zhong managed to control the black bird to land smoothly

Today is the last day of this week. If I still cannot complete it, I will have to consume a week’s worth of bland organic liquid food next week. Just the sight of that stuff makes me feel nauseous, let alone actually eating it

Ye Chong's black bird glided through the chaotic obstacles like a wisp of smoke, encountering no hindrance, not even a hint of awkwardness, moving freely and smoothly, as if it were a natural phenomenon

Two seconds later, a Shadow Phoenix -II also flew up to the black bird. Is this person a friend of his? Ye Chong guessed with a hint of envy. Suddenly, Ye Chong felt that this Shadow Phoenix looked somewhat familiar. Ah, Ye Chong suddenly remembered that this was the light armor he had used during his first encounter here. Seeing the Shadow Phoenix glance in his direction, Ye Chong slightly nodded in acknowledgment.

Perhaps, in the subconscious, this is also the reason why Ye Chong takes action. Deep down, Ye Chong, who is accompanied only by Mu, may long for the appearance of another kindred spirit more than anyone else

When he arrived at the Master Soldier Consciousness Training Base, he called for Mu Shang and said calmly: "Mu, I would like to see the subject list"

Mu Shang said to Yan Yuesheng: "Not bad, not bad, Ye Zi, but you need to improve your speed. Hmm, in order to enhance your motivation, it seems necessary to establish a reward and punishment mechanism. From now on, if you do not complete a subject within a week, then next week you will have to survive on liquid food!"

Ye Zhong was very pleased to accept Mu's suggestion. Having survived on the garbage planet for so long, he was more than willing to try any method that could enhance his strength

In order to distance himself from the organic liquid food he has loathed since childhood, Ye Chong had no choice but to strive to meet the targets set by Mu.

YC! It is definitely YC! Sun Xuelin was so excited that she almost jumped up! That's right, it's him! The scar on the left shoulder of his black bird still bears the mark from the day she accidentally hit it! And the abrasion on his left rib! She absolutely did not mistake him!

What exactly is the problem? Ye Chong understands very well that since Mu has proposed this parameter, it means that the Blackbird must be able to accomplish it.

Suddenly, Sun Xuelin was struck as if by lightning, standing there in a daze

Winnie has accompanied me for eight years. During these eight years, Winnie has been my strongest assurance for survival, despite its old age. Winnie is like a gentle elder, silently helping me, working tirelessly and selflessly.

The vast majority of people do not place importance on foundational training, but in fact, they are gravely mistaken

Ye Chongping calmly said, "Alright, it's nothing!" and then set down the black bird in his hand. He returned to the books.

Sun Xuelin listlessly browsed through the rooms in the basic training area and soon found her cousin Xiu's room. She directly entered Xiu's room

Seeing her cousin Xiu diligently studying, Sun Xuelin chose not to disturb her, but instead stood on the viewing platform to watch.

This is a placeholder text.

But why is it just a little bit off? Ye Zhong pondered deeply

Looking at the shadowy figure of his shepherd, Ye Chong felt utterly helpless. What could he do since he could no longer rely on Winnie? He had no choice but to depend on the shepherd for hunting. One cannot bite the hand that feeds them

A black figure slithered swiftly through the obstacles, moving at an astonishing speed. With such skill, is further training really necessary? Sun Xuelin felt somewhat puzzled and couldn't help but take a closer look

However, he underestimated Mu's abnormality! Later, during training, Ye Chong realized that these demanding parameters were, astonishingly, all limits that the Blackbird could reach! After tirelessly working to the point of nearly vomiting blood, Ye Chong finally completed one of the tasks! This nearly brought Ye Chong to tears of joy!

Ye Chong did not think much; with a sudden movement of both hands, the black bird flew like a gust of wind towards another of its kind.

The electronic eye of Mu Shang suddenly lit up: "Ye Zi, you must remember, never believe in the existence of limits!"

Sun Xuelin is feeling very dejected. Forget it, I might as well go find my cousin Xiu. She should be in the basic training area now

Sun Xuelin felt somewhat agitated

I wonder how my father is doing in another world? Ye Chong thought dreamily, resting his chin on his hand.

Still have not found it today
