Cheng Luo quickly shook her head and denied it. “No, I’m worried that the intensity of the training is not enough. 1 want to increase the difficulty of the training, even if it’s just me!”
Shi Man smiled in understanding. “You’re worried that you won’t be able to defeat Yue Ming in three days, right?”
Cheng Luo hesitated and probed, “Instructor Shi, do you think 1 can win?”
Shi Man laughed and hung the wet towel on a shelf to dry. “How do you think you’re inferior to Yue Ming?”
Cheng Luo thought about it carefully and clenched his fists indignantly. “I’m confident that my hard work is not inferior to his. The reason why I’ve never been able to surpass him is because the natural difference between men and women is too great.”
Shi Man glanced at her in amusement. “Then why do you think I can beat Yue Ming?”
Cheng Luo was stunned for a moment before he guessed blankly, “Because Instructor Shi, you’ve trained longer than him and are more talented than him?”
Shi Man smiled and said, “When I was training back then, 1 saw many men stronger than him, but almost none of them were my match.”
“Why?” Cheng Luo asked the question in his heart in shock.
Could it be that there were really people in this world who could resist the efforts of others just by relying on their talent?
However, Shi Man seemed to be able to see through her thoughts. She had just thought about it when Shi Man quickly denied it. “If you want to be outstanding, of course you can’t rely on talent alone. You have to rely on your brain.”
Cheng Luo was puzzled.
Shi Man said slowly, “Back then, when 1 was training, 1 realized that men were born with an advantage over women, but so what? It’s never about brute force, but intelligence. You have to use your brain well to know where to make up for your natural shortcomings.”
Cheng Luo said as if he understood, “Instructor Shi wants me to use my brain to find the other party’s flaws so that I can defeat him in one go? However, during the official assessment, the other subjects also took up a lot of points. 1 might not have a chance to defeat him.”
Shi Man shook her head and said, “You still don’t understand what 1 mean. This assessment has to be completed in a day, so the amount of exercise that day is even greater than the usual training. You know that you can’t compare to him in hurdles, so there’s no need to force yourself. You can work harder on other things you’re better at.”
Cheng Luo frowned and pondered for a while. He muttered in shame, “But 1 don’t think 1 can compare to him in other aspects.”
“So this is the meaning of my existence.” Not only was Shi Man not affected by her words, but there was also a smile on her face.
When she looked at Cheng Luo’s results, she already had a plan in her heart.
“Next, you just have to work hard according to the training 1 planned. You might have unexpected gains during the assessment.”
“Really?” Cheng Luo looked up with a smile. “Instructor Shi, then I’ll have to continue to trouble you. I believe in your strength and will definitely work hard. 1 won’t disappoint you.”
“Yes.” Shi Man nodded gently. “Go and rest well tonight. I’ll increase the training tomorrow.”
Previously, the bet had stated that Cheng Luo and Yue Ming had to undergo the same training, so Shi Man would not break the contract and give her special treatment.
Moreover, she was confident that her students could become even more outstanding in a short period of time.
Moreover, Cheng Luo’s strength was actually not as weak as she said.
Soon, it was the day of the assessment.
Early in the morning, the training ground was filled with tall students. Two examiners were assigned to each assessment venue. Shi Man was in charge of the examination hall today.
This place was set up in the last ring, so when the exam started, she was quite free here.
The first assessment was hurdles.
Cheng Luo was confident. She was not too nervous when he stood at the starting line. She took a deep breath and shot out with the starting gun.
The female soldier’s assessment was different from the male soldier’s. In the past, in order to close the distance between her and Yue Ming, she had tried her best in every assessment. Therefore, when it came to the later segments, she would often be exhausted and have to grit her teeth and persevere through the assessment.
However, this time, she changed her routine. During the female soldier’s hurdle assessment, she only used 70% of her strength. She barely exceeded the second place for two seconds and did not widen the distance.
At the side, Zhang Rui sneered and teased with Zhao Jing, “Look, after the female soldier’s first place was trained by Shi Man, her results have actually deteriorated so much. She’s almost half a minute later than before! I want to see how she ends up!”
“How else can it end? Of course they have to pack up and leave!” Zhao Jing smiled proudly at Zhang Rui and lowered her head to record the results of this group.
She was the examiner in charge of this examination. She did not expect that she would witness Shi Man’s loss just as the assessment began. At the thought that Shi Man would leave in a sorry state after today, she could not help but feel excited..
