There were three different tracks where the men’s 5km run was held, and the contestants were split into either of the three tracks. There were many departments in Jiangnan University, and by forcing every cla.s.s to at least send one partic.i.p.ant, every track still needed to be used about ten times to complete the compet.i.tion.

By allocating the ranks according to the contestants’ timings, there would be no next round. Because another round would kill people.

According to previous records, it takes approximately thirty minutes to complete the run once, so the whole 5km run compet.i.tion could be finished within four to five hours.

However, though extraordinary partic.i.p.ants were seen every year, this year had unusually more.

The first was Song Shuhang and the tanned student completing the race at sprinting speeds (though the tanned student was three steps off from the finish line), then there was the appearance of another extraordinaire, the fatty Yang Shangfa who cla.s.sified himself as a ‘fellow who was also pushed down the cliff’ like Song Shuhang.

In the beginning of the compet.i.tion, he jogged at speeds like he just had a meal, securing his place at the last of the pack.

Approximately three laps after, he could bear it no longer, and his face was pale. Then, from slow jog he changed to scampering, then slow walk, then to turtle s.h.i.+fting.

After s.h.i.+fting for some distance, he even had to hold onto his waist to catch a breath.

With such stamina, it’s a wonder what his cla.s.smates were thinking when they actually applied him for the 5km compet.i.tion?

Twenty-five minutes later, the rest of the contestants on the track had completed the 5km run. However, Student Yang Shangfa was still running, walking, and stopping. At this point, his total mileage was merely 2.1km. Furthermore, his face was pale, and his lips were turning green. He looked like he may have to be sent to the hospital at any time.

The teacher who was in-charge of being the umpire couldn’t bear watching anymore, “Hey, student, the compet.i.tion can end now, it doesn’t matter if you can’t finish the run. Being able to run up till now shows that you have perseverance!”

However, Student Yang Shangfa, replied the teacher this, “Teacher, I’m a man who finishes what he starts, I will definitely complete the 5km. Even if I have to crawl, I’ll crawl till the finish line!”

This fellow had a temper that could be like a donkey when he gets stubborn, no one could pull him down.

The eyes of the teacher immediately moistened. b.a.s.t.a.r.d, even if you want to finish what you start, you should consider the situation. There are still nine more rounds of this event, if you continue s.h.i.+fting like this, what time will you finish?

In the end, just how long did Student Yang Shangfa s.h.i.+ft till? The answer is an entire hour! Add on to that the previous twenty-five minutes, he had s.h.i.+fted for a whole hour and twenty-five minutes. The other tracks were already executing their fourth round.

The teacher who was in-charge really cried.

??????????

After Song Shuhang finished the run, he received the exuberant and messy cheers from his friends.

“Shuhang, it’s truly impossible to tell, since when have you become this adept at running? The first place of the 5km run, we’ve definitely got it!” Someone hammered Shuhang’s back with force.

“What I want to know is, are cheers from pretty girls really so effective? You and that tanned fellow were totally das.h.i.+ng the whole way.”

“Beauties are definitely effective, which is why all large scale international compet.i.tions have cheerleading squads filled with beauties!”

Song Shuhang forced a smile as he received all kinds of playful punches and pats from this friends.

After a long while, Li Yangde pulled him to a side.

There’s news from the medicine shops you asked me to looked around at.” Li Yangde said with a smile, he handed over the locations of four medicine shops, “These four medicine shops all possess the medicinal ingredients your friend is looking for. Amongst them, the Yuan Long Medicinal Drugs Store holds the most.They have all of the ingredients you need. It’s a coincidence that this store had just sold these four medicinal ingredients yesterday. Apparently, the person who bought them had placed an order for even more of these medicinal ingredients, the shopkeeper is in the middle of importing them. If your friend is in a rush for them, then seize this opportunity to place an order, and you may be able to make it in time for when they the goods are imported.

“Thank you, Yangde.” Song Shuhang received the addresses of the four medicine shops, and his gaze s.h.i.+fted to the address of Yuan Long Medicinal Drug Store. They just sold some yesterday, then ordered a larger quant.i.ty.

These four uncommon herbs were rarely used by people and even if they used it, they would only use one or two of these four types.

To order all four and in large quant.i.ty meant that there was over a seventy percent chance that it was the Altar Master.
