Chapter 144: A Special Reward

Translator: Double_LEditor: Tehrn

A sudden change would take place once the effort had reached a certain level, and usually, people would call this achievement ”comprehension”. However, the comprehension would never occur out of the blue; the accumulation of hard work and effort were the key factors for this to happen.

Wang Tong had been training in a serious attitude, he was actually very happy for this kind of training because he would be able to initialize his Tactics of the Blade while training his physical fitness. Wang Tong was glad that he didn’t have to worry about getting disturbed and was able to be fully concentrated on his training; moreover, he didn’t have to worry about meals and rentals. Everywhere could be Wang Tong’s paradise... as long as he didn’t have to worry about money.

Everyone began to adjust their pace gradually in order to adapt to the hindrance of the seawater, and they had also adjusted the strength of their movements in order to stabilize their center of gravity.

A lot of things could be learned as long as they settled down their attitudes, it was always better to calm down and do as they were ordered instead of wasting their time and emotion on grumbling and complaining about it. After all, their own fate would be up to them to decide.

They might be young, but they were not a bunch of fools. They knew that they had to look for their own ways of learning as soon as possible. Rumi, for instance, who was only fourteen years old, might be the youngest amongst the team, yet she had been able to learn a lot of new things in her own way. Nevertheless, Rumi was still the slowest amongst the team, luckily she had Ma Xiaoru and Zhou Sisi accompanying her, or else she would not have been able to hold out for sure.

Teamwork and support were not about taking someone else’s place during the training, but to share the joy and pain with each other.

However, speed was still the crucial factor in this training, as they might lose their chance of having dinner if they couldn’t complete before the designated time.

As most of them in the leading position had begun to slow down, Wang Tong was still running while maintaining his speed as if he were some kind of monster that would never get tired. It might be normal if he were utilizing his GN Force, but that was impossible since Massa prohibited the utilization of GN Force. The rest of the team would probably be stunned if they found out that Wang Tong was actually initializing his tactics at the same time.

Wang Tong discovered something weird while he was exercising and practicing the Tactics of the Blade at the same time, he noticed that the overall circulation of the sixteen nodes tactics had become slower, but the fluency of the delicate processes controlled by his Dantian (the Cinnabar field) had improved instead. Wang Tong felt a sense of warm current circulating within his body and continuously eliminated his fatigue.

In the end, Wang Tong became the only one who was running happily. While the others were trying their best to keep up; some of the strong-willed ones were seen silently competing against each other during the training.

Of course, Wang Tong was the first who completed the training, luckily his anklets detected no signs of GN Force, or else Massa would definitely suspect him of cheating. In fact, Massa had been keeping an eye on Wang Tong since the beginning of this training because Wang Tong’s physical fitness and stamina were incredibly amazing, and Massa needed to be sure if there was any foul play, yet he was surprised to find nothing suspicious at all. Massa couldn’t help staring at Wang Tong, wondering if he was really a human for not being out of breath after such a hectic task.

”You may head back for dinner,” Massa said emotionlessly, he didn’t praise Wang Tong at all.

As Wang Tong was trying to put down his backpack and remove his anklets, Massa stopped him and said, ”No, don’t remove them, put these on as well.”

Massa threw him a pair of magnetic wrist weights and said, ”Wear these on your wrists 24/7 from now onwards and do not remove them unless I say so. Understand?”

”Yes, Sir!” Wang Tong saluted.

Massa nodded emotionlessly, and as soon as he pressed a button, Wang Tong’s arms and legs were immediately bounded by the magnetic force.

”Since normal weights have no effect on you, I’m giving you this special reward, take your time to get used to it,” Masa was clearly sending Wang Tong a message not to mess with him.

Apparently, that was the real function of these weights, and Wang Tong would have no choice but to adapt to the immense magnetic force.

”And don’t even think about using your GN Force!” Massa commanded and went off to see how the others were doing, somehow Wang Tong didn’t notice the faint smile on Massa’s face as he left.

Barely able to move a muscle, Wang Tong stood on the beach like an idiot. He had no idea what Massa did to the anklets and wrist weights, all Wang Tong knew was that he had to break out from this huge magnetic force as soon as possible!

Wang Tong tried his best to adapt to the magnetic force; however, it was way more difficult than he had expected.

Obviously, Massa had basically understood the capabilities of his body through the previous training, which was why Massa decided to skip the basics and let Wang Tong took on the toughest difficulty. The definition of training was to discover, stimulate, and create a breakthrough in one’s hidden potential. Nevertheless, Massa was also trying to seize the opportunity to show Wang Tong that he was the boss.

In fact, Massa had already been planning to let Wang Tong try out something different the moment he finished the round-island jog since the level of Wang Tong’s potential was much higher than most of his teammates. Massa would have to train him to the standard of the special forces in the military.

Both Wang Ben and Apache arrived at the finish line ten minutes later, they were surprised to see that Wang Tong was still standing on the beach like a wooden pillar; a wooden sign with the words ”Do Not Disturb” written on it was placed right beside him as well.

Wang Ben and Apache wanted to know what had happened to Wang Tong, but they were too hungry to do anything else. In the end, they decided to hop on the chopper and head back to the cafeteria first.

Apparently, the two of them were the only ones who were qualified for dinner, supposedly Cao Yi and Hu Yangxuan could also make it, but the extra weights had slowed them down drastically and caused them to miss dinner.

The rest of the team were even slower, but at least they could have some rest later. It has been a tiring and unforgettable day indeed.

As night falls, the students were seen running toward the finish line one after another; everyone was terribly exhausted, especially the two big fellas from Heavy Arm Force. Nevertheless, all of them came back in one piece.

The chopper had been traveling back and forth, sending students back to their base one by one; it seemed like they would have to starve tonight as there were no restaurant or cafeteria here since it was only a small island right next to Paradise Island.

However, Wang Tong, who was the earliest to arrive, was still standing at the same spot, he shut his eyes and was looking serious while trying his best to expand his arms and legs. No one dared to walk toward him as they saw the wooden sign, wondering if he had done something which angered the ”Mold-face” Massa.
