After Transmigrating Into a Book, I Became That Omega - Chapter 12
This time, the whistle and the shouted words “Emergency assembly!” finally made the entire building boil over.
After a burst of chaos, twenty minutes later, everyone was finally assembled.
All the students looked at the instructors standing at the front of the formations and did not dare breathe too loudly.
Every instructor’s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
Liu Zhen stood at the very front of the formation, his expression stern and calm.
“An emergency assembly began at exactly four o’clock. Within five minutes, only a small number of people came out.”
“It took thirty-four minutes for everyone to come out.”
“If this were war, every single one of you would have been wiped out long ago.”
“So these are Yun University students?” The contempt in Liu Zhen’s tone was far too obvious, making many students unable to stop themselves from clenching their fists.
“If all Yun University students are like you, then all I can say is…” Liu Zhen looked at the dense crowd of students and sneered. “You’re nothing much.”
All the students lowered their heads, not daring to refute him. They were indeed in the wrong when it came to today’s emergency assembly.
But being spoken to like this by the instructor still filled their hearts with anger.
“Report, Instructor!” Someone in the formation raised a hand.
“Speak.”
“You didn’t tell us in advance that there would be an emergency assembly today. This is our first time, and we didn’t know what was going on. Isn’t that understandable?”
“Hah?” Liu Zhen looked as if he had heard some kind of joke. “Have you ever seen an emergency assembly that gives advance notice?”
“If I notified you in advance, could it still be called an emergency assembly?”
The mockery on Liu Zhen’s face was so obvious that every Yun University student’s face flushed red.
That expression was almost like he was insulting their intelligence.
“What? You’re unconvinced?” Liu Zhen seemed able to see what the students were thinking.
“Fine. Don’t say I didn’t give you a chance.”
Liu Zhen looked at the watch on his wrist. “It is now 4:45 a.m. The original purpose of today’s emergency assembly was to help you adapt. Since you’re unconvinced…”
“Everyone, listen up. Target: Yun Ming Mountain. Run to the summit, then run back. If not a single person falls behind, I’ll admit you’re impressive.”
Looking at the students rubbing their fists and eager to try, Liu Zhen sneered. “Remember, even one person falling behind doesn’t count.”
Watching the students, already stirred up, run out of the camp, one instructor chuckled. “They really are young. A few words and they can’t take it anymore.”
“A person who isn’t hot-blooded in youth has wasted their youth. Isn’t this age exactly when they’re most eager to prove themselves?”
“Let’s see how they perform this time. Anyone can boast, but not everyone can follow through.”
Each formation was led by its acting class monitor. Sang Yuan ran along the outer side of the formation without saying a word.
Although he was not from this world and had always treated all kinds of things with the attitude of an outsider, that did not stop him from currently being a Yun University student. He was also one of the people included in Liu Zhen’s words.
He had always been hot-blooded to begin with, so naturally, he was indignant too.
Even if many people were not good enough, they still could not overturn an entire boatload of people with one pole.
“Class monitor, I’m sorry. When you called us to wake up, I actually didn’t believe you.” During the run, one student quietly apologized to Sang Yuan in between breaths.
“I’m sorry too. I shouldn’t have said such ugly things.”
Many people changed positions one after another to apologize to Sang Yuan.
Sang Yuan froze for a moment. Looking at each apologetic face, he suddenly raised a smile. Under the brightness of that smile, his pretty little face shone brilliantly. “It’s fine. This operation concerns the reputation of our Yun University. Everyone, you absolutely can’t fall behind. Put in some effort.”
“Yes, class monitor!” The people of Formation Fifteen shouted in unison, making the people in the formations ahead turn back frequently, wanting to know what they were doing.
At this moment, Sang Yuan did not realize that he was gradually integrating into this group, deepening his sense of belonging to this world bit by bit.
Right now, Sang Yuan’s emotions were surging. He had not expected the students here to be so cute. When they made mistakes, they immediately admitted them without acting awkward or coy.
He had always thought Alphas were arrogant. Alphas did indeed have their own pride, but when they encountered someone they respected, they were not stingy with their appreciation.
Through his own actions, Sang Yuan had told them that he was qualified to hold the position of class monitor.
His hearing was even sharper than an Alpha’s, and his performance during military training these past few days had been praised by the instructor every time. Gradually, they had begun to acknowledge him.
Perhaps having a Beta as class monitor was not that hard to accept after all.
Yun Ming Mountain was not far from the base.
Yun City Base had been built around Yun Ming Mountain.
Following the route the troops often used for training marches, everyone ran upward, each person holding a breath of anger in their chest.
Even those delicate Omegas did not complain about being tired. They gritted their teeth and persisted, running behind all the formations.
By the time they reached halfway up the mountain, some Omegas could no longer keep up physically and gradually began falling behind.
Very soon, some formations noticed that many Omegas had been left far behind.
“If anyone feels tired, report it, and we’ll immediately send a vehicle to pick you up.” An instructor leisurely followed behind the Omegas, holding a megaphone as he shouted, afraid someone might not hear him.
Sang Yuan slowed his steps and looked back. Many Omegas were already deathly pale, but they were still persevering and running forward.
“Is anyone willing to come with me to help the Omegas? As long as they don’t give up, we’ll help them reach the summit together.” Sang Yuan looked toward the people of Formation Fifteen.
“I’ll go with you.” The first person to step forward was Du Ming.
Du Ming was an Alpha from the Physical Education Department, so his stamina gave him more of an advantage than the others.
“I’ll go too.” Several people came out one after another. Sang Yuan appointed another student to lead the formation, while he brought Du Ming and the others toward the Omegas.
When the people from the other formations saw Sang Yuan’s actions, they followed suit. A few students came out from each formation and ran toward the Omega formation.
“Let’s go. As long as you don’t give up on yourself, we won’t give up either.” Sang Yuan reached out to the Omega closest to him.
“Thank you.” This Omega was a girl. Her pale face flushed slightly, and she lowered her head as she took Sang Yuan’s hand.
Sang Yuan grabbed another person too, one on each side, practically leading both of them forward as they ran.
His speed was not fast, but it was not slow either. He adjusted to the pace of the two Omegas and did not dare go too quickly, only maintaining a steady speed forward.
All the Omegas were led forward like this. When they became tired from running, they supported one another.
An instructor watched from behind but did not stop them, as if silently approving of their actions.
“You’re not bad, kid. Among the people you’re leading, one decent one came out.” Someone bumped Gan Xi and teased him.
“He’s all right, I suppose. At the very least, he hasn’t made me lose face.” Gan Xi’s face carried a smile, his eyes full of satisfaction.
He had been secretly observing Sang Yuan all along and had a relatively good understanding of his physical fitness and every other aspect.
Since there was a student in his own formation who stood out, he was naturally happy.
That was someone he had trained, after all. It also brought him honor. More importantly, this time, people like them were also shouldering the mission of selecting promising recruits.
Sang Yuan was the promising recruit he had his eye on.
Although he was a Beta, he possessed many qualities that even Alphas did not have.
This point made Gan Xi exceptionally satisfied.
