After Transmigrating Into a Book, I Became That Omega - Chapter 20

Many people shook their heads frantically. “No. If you do that, it’ll only make us lose more and more strength. We’re starving.”

But with Zhou Yan’s food bombardment all along the way, everyone unknowingly reached the finish line.

Nie Yun stood at the spot where the flag was planted. The first thing he saw was Sang Yuan, whose hair had been swept completely back because of sweat.

His gaze flickered. Seeing that Sang Yuan had no other problems, he looked toward the others.

As part of the first group to reach the summit, Sang Yuan and the others sat down on the ground with the instructor’s silent permission.

He picked up his canteen and gulped down several mouthfuls of water.

The students arrived one after another. Many people’s steps had already become unsteady. Not a single person’s clothes were dry. Once they reached the mountaintop, they all dropped onto the ground and drank water like mad.

“Forty minutes.” Nie Yun held the megaphone, looking at everyone expressionlessly. “It took you forty minutes to complete a five-kilometer weighted run.”

“With your abilities, if this were the army, you wouldn’t even count as qualified.”

“I hope that after the training that follows, the next time you do a weighted run, your speed will improve.”

Nie Yun’s merciless words made the students’ faces flush red, then turn pale.

Was this chief instructor a demon? This was their first weighted run, and it was not even fully over yet, but he was already thinking about next time?

“Rest for another five minutes. In five minutes, we descend the mountain.” Nie Yun checked the time and lowered the megaphone.

Wails immediately rang out. What the hell? Why was the rest time so short?

Hadn’t they only just arrived?

As if he knew what the students were thinking, Nie Yun sneered and said, “The people who arrived last can reflect on why others could arrive more than ten minutes earlier than you. Those who arrived early naturally get more rest.”

Whether the students wailed or not, once the time came, they still had to head down the mountain.

On the way back, everyone gave it their all. After all, once they got back, they would be able to eat breakfast. Everyone was starving, and eating had become their shared goal.

The breakfast at West Mountain Base was very abundant, making the hungry students almost tear up.

“I didn’t expect the food here to taste pretty good. This next month should be a lot easier to get through.” Zhou Yan spoke while still stuffing steamed buns into his mouth.

Breakfast was not divided by school.

The students were all dead tired, so whoever arrived first went to eat first.

There was a time limit for washing up too. Those who liked cleanliness even wanted to seize the chance to take a shower.

At one table, the people sitting together were basically the ones who had returned at the front. Once they took off their loads, they had gone straight to the cafeteria.

Once ten people gathered at a table, they could start eating. Those who arrived first naturally ate first.

Aside from Zhou Yan, whose mouth could not be blocked even by food, everyone else lowered their heads and focused on eating.

“This morning, what we’ll be teaching is combat skills. Everyone, rows one to five, ten people from left to right will form the first formation. Rows six to ten, from left to right, will form the second formation, and so on.”

“Those in the same formation, gather together and create distance from the other formations.”

“Responsible instructors, claim your formations.”

Following Nie Yun’s orders one after another, all the students and instructors in training uniforms were assigned to their places.

Students from the same school were divided into two formations. This time, Sang Yuan and Ji Tang were assigned together. Sang Yuan blinked at Ji Tang, and a faint smile flashed through Ji Tang’s eyes.

Whether it was coincidence or not, the students in Sang Yuan’s formation were almost all people who had performed well during the morning’s five-kilometer weighted run.

“The combat techniques I’m teaching you now—I’ll demonstrate them once. Your instructors will explain the specific breakdown of the movements.” Nie Yun placed the megaphone on the ground and stood in the middle of the platform. His overall aura suddenly changed.

The killing intent that had originally been restrained fully opened up, shocking the students into staring without blinking.

Interest flashed in Sang Yuan’s eyes. He seemed even more powerful than Gan Xi. He wondered what it would feel like to fight him.

Earlier, he had heard Gan Xi call him captain. Sang Yuan guessed that Gan Xi was part of the special squad Liu Tiancheng had mentioned. Then was Nie Yun the captain of that special squad?

Sang Yuan felt the battle-hungry factors inside his body stirring restlessly again.

Nie Yun performed a full set of combat techniques without the slightest drag, clean and efficient.

The sound of his movements cutting through the air made the students’ eyes brighten.

After Nie Yun finished demonstrating, the five hundred students, split into ten formations, all began learning combat together.

Sang Yuan’s formation was the first formation, and the students in this formation learned the fastest.

The instructor only demonstrated twice, and almost all the students could already perform it fairly well. Only a few individual details needed correction.

“You deliberately put all the more outstanding ones together to make them compete?” At some point, someone had appeared beside Nie Yun. Looking at the students below training in full swing, he asked curiously.

“People can only break through themselves when they’re under pressure.” Nie Yun swept his expressionless gaze over the students below the platform.

“For them, only by mastering life-saving techniques as quickly as possible will they have a chance.” Nie Yun’s words made the newcomer sigh softly.

“For the future, they are the real hope.”

The training at West Mountain Base was much harsher than the training at their own city bases.

If the things they had trained in before were all foundational, then here, everything they learned had a clear purpose.

Sang Yuan quickly noticed that something was wrong. Whether it was weighted running or combat techniques, they were even studying reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance.

After the daytime training came cultural studies at night.

This was the part that made Sang Yuan feel truly miserable. But as he looked at the book in his hands, On How to Become a Successful Hidden Operative, and the two glaring words “Confidential” printed on it, he fell deeply silent.

He remembered that what he was studying should have been literature, right?

Before class, he had even struggled painfully for a while, considering whether he should change majors.

And the result?

The book in his hands made him seriously suspect that he had walked into the wrong classroom.

There was one copy of this book on every desk, all exactly the same.

Sang Yuan was just about to find someone and ask what exactly was going on when someone entered the classroom.

The person who came in was a very young woman. Her slightly curled long hair brushed over her waist, and she wore exquisite makeup and a well-fitted uniform.

If the occasion had not been wrong, Sang Yuan would have wanted to whistle at her.

With her outfit, she could absolutely drive many men crazy. Most importantly, this woman was also an Omega.

A sweet fragrance spread from her body, like cotton candy, soft and sweet.

When she spoke, her voice carried a slight trailing note, making it sound very charming.

“Hello, students. I’m your homeroom teacher. My name is Ning An’an.”

“The students sitting in this classroom aren’t from just one department. But because there are very few of you, we combined you together. I also selected assistants from different universities.”

“Our class has students from the Literature Department, the History Department, and the Philosophy Department.”

“So for this assistant, I randomly chose a Physical Education Department student from the list I was given. I hope you can all get along well.”

There were not many students in Sang Yuan’s class. Including Sang Yuan, there were not even ten.

With just one look, they all confirmed it.

They were all people who had wanted to coast through life.
