”In 1st place: Chong Lin, 400 points!” The voice of Political Instructor Zhao was clear and resonant.
All the coaches were completely silent. Almost everyone's face was filled with great surprise. Disbelief was in the eyes of many people.
Four hundred points is the full score, did I just hear that correctly? Is Political Instructor Zhao joking? one coach said silently to himself. When he saw the solemn face of Political Instructor Zhao, however, he instantly knew that what Political Instructor Zhao had said was true.
”Wow!” The next second, the meeting room was in an uproar.
”400 points, the full score! How could that be possible!”
”We only got ten days of training time, how could a full score be possible?! For the total score to be even over 300 points is a remarkable achievement. It is really incredible that someone could get the full score!”
Coach Qiao and Coach Deng looked at each other, exchanging looks of amazement.
Who is that? What coach could be so capable? Coach Qiao thought that 320 points would be the top score; even if someone was better than him, he thought the score would only be five or ten points higher at most.
However, to his surprise, the 1st place finisher had gotten 400 points, which was 80 points higher than his trainee's score. According to the criteria that equated five points to one level, this was a giant difference of sixteen levels.
Moreover, with the growth of the trainees' level, the training would be more and more difficult as a result, and the progress would be harder and harder to see. In this case, during an examination of physical performance, a score increase from 90 points to 100 points was much more difficult than an increase from 70 points to 80 points.
Coach Qiao had always believed that he, the coach who had come in 2nd, and the other coaches, who had gotten 30th, were on two different levels; after all, the score difference between 2nd and 30th place was 50 points. But right now, there was a world of difference between him and the coach of 1st place.
The noisy discussion of the coaches made Political Instructor Zhao frown in discontent. However, he could expect too much from some coaches. If police officers had been in such a chaotic condition, punishments would have been inevitable.
The coaches kept conversing, ignoring Political Instructor Zhao's expression.
”Who is it? Who could be so awesome?”
”Only a man of God could get a full score within ten days. Just come forth and receive my worship!”
”Political Instructor Zhao just said the name of the police officer who got the full score is Chong Lin. Who is the coach of Chong Lin?”
”Chong Lin? It sounds so familiar. I feel like I have heard this name somewhere.”
”No need to tell me. Of course you are familiar with the name. Haven't you read the The Water Margin (a Chinese novel written by Shi Nai'an; this novel is considered one of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature. The story, set in the Song dynasty, tells of how a group of 108 outlaws gather at Mount Liang (or Liangshan Marsh) to form a sizable army before they are eventually granted amnesty by the government and sent on campaigns to resist foreign invaders and suppress rebel forces. It introduced to readers many of the most well-known characters in Chinese literature, such as Wu Song, Chong Lin, and Lu Zhishen.)? The 'Panther Head' Chong Lin!”
”I am not talking about the Chong Lin from The Water Margin. It seems like his name was just mentioned by someone here!”
”Yes, now that you mention it, I also remember that someone said this name just moments ago!”
The speaker looked around in the meeting room, then rested his eyes on Xuexi Zhuang.
