Chapter 20

The dormitory of the Flying Leap Unit was a four-person room. When Ye Chenfeng walked into the dormitory, three people of about his age were boasting and chatting inside. The sound of the door opening drew their attention to Ye Chenfeng.

Ye Chenfeng's face showed a kind smile as he introduced himself: "Brothers, from now on we will be comrades in the same dormitory. My name is Ye Chenfeng, and I just joined the training of the Flying Leap Unit today."

Seeing the handsome man who had just walked into the dormitory introduce himself with a smile, the other three people in the dormitory felt it would be impolite not to respond. After all, one doesn't hit a smiling face! They all introduced themselves.

The most robust of the three was named Lu Tian, the one who always wore a smile was called Zhou Ping, and the last one, who rarely spoke, was named Gu Le. Through their introductions, Ye Chenfeng got a preliminary understanding of their backgrounds. All three of them had some military background and had grown up in military zones. They yearned to improve their strength, so they used their family connections to join the Flying Leap Unit for training.

The most outgoing of the three, Zhou Ping, walked up to Ye Chenfeng and put his arm around his shoulder, saying, "Brother, you're really impressive. How did you get into the Flying Leap Unit? I've never seen new recruits join halfway through the training before!"

The Flying Leap Unit operated on a college system, with a batch of trainees leaving the unit each year and a new batch of recruits joining. Until now, no one had ever joined halfway through the training.

You must understand that the hellish training of the Flying Leap Unit gradually increased in intensity. Joining halfway meant starting with particularly harsh training without an adaptation period. Most people couldn't endure such strictness.

Of course, if it was said that the instructor Lin Zhonghu agreed to let Ye Chenfeng join because of Ye Dongjian, after the battle with Ye Chenfeng, he was willing to let him join. Having a high-level expert like Ye Chenfeng join would only enhance the unit's overall strength.

Ye Chenfeng didn't want them to know he was from the Ye family in the capital, so he casually said, "My uncle is good friends with the instructor of the Flying Leap Unit, so he opened the back door for me to join halfway through."

"Ye Chenfeng, the Flying Leap Unit isn't a place for fun. The training here can be life-threatening. Are you mentally prepared?" Lu Tian, the most robust one, asked.

Ye Chenfeng awkwardly touched his nose and said, "I've always been weak since childhood. I want to train to improve my physical fitness. If I can't keep up, I can always quit later."

"The training here is manageable. We can help you if you need it," Gu Le said simply, showing that he really didn't like to talk much.

After a bit of chatting, the four of them started to get along. Zhou Ping, the most talkative, was boasting about all sorts of things with great enthusiasm.

The next day, when the sky was still dim, the assembly whistle blew, and all the members of the Flying Leap Unit quickly gathered on the training ground.

Instructor Lin Zhonghu glanced meaningfully at Ye Chenfeng, who was standing in the formation, and then shouted, "Today's assembly was five seconds slower than usual. You won't be having breakfast."

Despite their dissatisfaction, the trainees all loudly responded, "Yes, sir."

Over the past few days, they had gradually gotten used to this insane strictness. At the beginning, some who were不服气 (unconvinced) had challenged Lin Zhonghu, but they all ended up with bruised noses and swollen faces. Since then, they never dared to say "no" to the instructor.

After the training started, Ye Chenfeng couldn't help but feel disappointed by the harshness of the Flying Leap Unit. Compared to the training he had undergone in his previous life, this was like the difference between an elephant and an ant. However, his current physical condition was so poor that this training still provided some benefit.

Originally, Lu Tian, Zhou Ping, and Gu Le thought Ye Chenfeng would last at most half a month, as even they, who had joined from the beginning, could barely endure the training. To their surprise, Ye Chenfeng, who initially looked like a dead dog after each day of training, now seemed unaffected. They couldn't figure out the reason no matter how hard they tried.

In the dormitory, after the training, Zhou Ping, panting heavily, leaned on Ye Chenfeng's shoulder, who remained unperturbed, and said in a strange voice, "Chenfeng, are you even human? Did you take Viagra or something?"

After a month of getting along, Ye Chenfeng had become close to them, and they often joked with each other.

Ye Chenfeng pushed Zhou Ping away in a bad mood and laughed, "Xiao Pingzi, if you think taking Viagra works, why don't you take a whole bottle? You'll definitely surpass me and become a real man. Then, this training will be a piece of cake for you."

"I don't think that's necessary. If I took a whole bottle, my little friend down there would probably explode," Zhou Ping said weakly, rolling his eyes and lying down on the bed.

"Chenfeng, I think Zhou Ping is right. Have you really taken performance-enhancing drugs?" Lu Tian, who had initially been the least optimistic about Ye Chenfeng, was now frustrated by his superior performance.

"Chenfeng might just be a natural expert," Gu Le, who rarely spoke, said succinctly.

"Come on! An expert? At most, he just has better stamina. If Chenfeng is an expert, I'm Spider-Man. That's ridiculous," Zhou Ping said weakly from the bed.

Actually, what Gu Le said was spot on. After a month of training, Ye Chenfeng's physical condition had significantly improved. Although it still couldn't compare to his previous life, he could now stabilize his soul power at the peak of the second level. In other words, if Lin Zhonghu were to challenge him again, he had a 100% chance of winning.

The current intensity of the Flying Leap Unit's training had little effect on him. To break through to the third level of soul power, it would take a long time just through training. If he used drugs, it would be much easier. Therefore, he needed to find an excuse to leave the training camp.

He had agreed to come here to improve his physical condition, but now staying here wouldn't provide any further benefits, which completely lost his interest in staying.
