Astral Flower-Chapter 52: Ranking
Yu Sui snorted. "You better get better results before the dormitory is rearranged so that we don’t need to participate in the evening training."
Some students dropped out last semester. Even though the current training today looked relaxed, there were many competitions and physical training on a daily basis. The amount of practice for each of them would be tailored based on their physical strength.
As they gradually increased their strength, the amount of weight they had to carry would also increase.
Nan Hua looked at Yu Sui and ignored her as she went to the cabin. She was not tired yet, so she would ’practice’ in the private training room to create the image that Nan Hua was training.
Yu Sui watched Nan Hua walk to the cabin and snort. She didn’t want to practice again and simply sat on her bed, looking through her light brain and chatting with the others.
On the other hand, Ouyang Lin walked out of the dormitory. She still had night training.
...
The next morning, Nan Hua woke up early and looked at her light brain to see the result of the written test ranking. The written test had to be evaluated before the result was announced.
There were a total of 10,000 students in Nan Hua’s year alone. It was divided into 10 blocks and Nan Hua was in Block C. The ranking was only ranking in the block and the result would be between 0 to 1000.
Of course, 0 meant that they would be punished heavily.
The minimum result was 700, so anything under that meant that they would have additional night class.
Nan Hua looked at her result, which was 792. The fake Nan Hua’s usual result was between 710 to 770.
This was a bit better, but not unreasonable.
However, her ranking was 578. It meant that there were many people who obtained the score of more than 800. The competition was very fierce and even the slightest difference in score could mean a different rank.
WEWOWEWO!
The moment the bell rang, Nan Hua swiftly cleaned her bed and rushed out along with Ouyang Lin and Yu Sui. Even the slowest one would have long gotten used to the morning call and would not be late or they would be punished.
No one wanted to be punished.
"Everyone is here?" The instructor looked at the student and nodded. He pointed at the weight at the side. "Pick your weight and follow the route. We’ll count your time and give your score based on your result. When you’re done, there will be a mental training test."
"Yes!"
They all rushed to pick the belt with their name.
Unlike the past where they had to bring something that was physically heavy, what they had to wear was a special belt that would increase the gravity in accordance with their physical rank. That was why the belt had to be named. Everyone’s physical strength score was different.
Nan Hua picked hers and wore it. Inside her clothes, she had worn another belt, which was given to her by Nan Hai Yan. It was usually used for her practice when she was with her father at home.
Now, she brought it out.
After Nan Hua used the belt, she could hardly feel any differences. In this situation, it would be harder for her to pretend that she was tired even after she ran several hundred kilometers.
Nan Hua clicked the belt inside her body, adjusting it several times heavier until she felt heavy. This was the real weight that she needed to make herself tired and practice her body. Rather than faking it through acting, it would be better to just make her body tired for real.
"Start!"
Drap! Drap! Drap!
They all began to run in accordance with the route. Even if they actually wanted to jog, it would be impossible unless they wanted their result to drop. From the very beginning, they had to sprint and ran at the fastest speed.
Soon, they were all divided into four groups.
The first group consisted of those with excellent physical strength and speed. They were able to run at fast speed without compromising their endurance.
The second group was slower but they also did well.
The third group could be said to be the pack because most of them were all here. They ran at slower speed but there were many others around them. Nan Hua was also here and stayed in the middle inconspicuously.
The fourth group was the slowest one. They were those who had poor physical strength and couldn’t catch up with the others.
Tep.
Nan Hua saw Yu Sui who was nearby. Due to the belt that hindered them, their speed would mostly be the same.
The differences lie in their endurance and also speed they could maintain for a long period of time.
Yu Sui stretched her leg, trying to trip Nan Hua.
Nan Hua’s eyes flashed and when she raised her leg, she raised it a bit higher.
Stomp!
