Overlord, Love Me Tender

When the time is near, the school bell began to ring.

More than three hundred freshmen were already all lined up in the venue.

It appeared that the two instructors had left a fearful mood to the students after their first training yesterday.

After seeing the two instructors showed up, the students who were listless and yawning away immediately stood up straight.

“Good.”

Instructor Chu took a glance at all the freshmen: “No one is absent.”

The students sighed in relief; this was a good start.

With the instructors in a good mood, perhaps they would be not be so tortuous towards the students!

Shortly after, Instructor Ho spoke out coldly: “Now, line up around the square and run five rounds! Start!”

“What?! Still run!”

“Didn’t we run yesterday? Sir, someone will die if we run again!”

The students who were tensed up earlier all broke into chaos after hearing the instructions.

“Begin!” Instructor Ho did not listen to their complaints and bellowed mercilessly.

The students were shocked and started running despite being unwilling to lift their legs.

One by one, the freshmen ran from the training grounds to the square and began running in circles.

This time, Instructor Ho had arranged for Ye Qing Luo and Liu Xiao Yu to be first in line.

After a lap, the two were already far ahead.

After an hour, Ye Qing Luo had completed five rounds and was standing at the finishing line to stretch her muscles.

Running was supposed to be a gradual exercise.

The instructors had made the students run five laps at a time. If they did not run daily like Ye Qing Luo and Liu Xiao Yu, it would not be possible to persist the five rounds in a go.

Ye Qing Luo could tell that the instructors’ intention wasn’t about the freshmen running the five laps.

But they wanted to ignite their potential and let them get used to this pace.

When Ye Qing Luo was done massaging her legs, she headed over to the rest zone and took a cup of water to drink.

Instructor Chu walked over and assessed her with his sharp eyes: “Tired?”

“Tolerable.” Ye Qing Luo smiled, except that her forehead was sweating, she was hardly looking breathless.

“Have you done any training before entering the Academy?” Instructor Chu raised his brows and asked curiously.

“Well, I don’t want to be labelled as a useless thing, so I have set myself the goal to exercise.”

Instructor Chu smiled with interest after hearing her answer.

This girl’s response was indeed honest.

“Your foundation is above the rest, how about running ten rounds while the rest of the freshmen do five starting from tomorrow onwards?”

For a moment, instructor Chu’s eyes had a trace of excitement flashed by.

It was so fast that Ye Qing Luo thought she was mistaken.

Why did she feel…. Instructor Chu seem as if he wanted her to run ten laps?

“Instructor said that everyone will be assigned a suitable training method based on yesterday’s training, I will listen to your arrangements.”

Ye Qing Luo had no objections to running ten rounds.

Her purpose in coming here in the first place was to become stronger.

Instructor Chu nodded with satisfaction and immediately turned around and returned to the finishing line at the square: “Report back to the freshmen training ground after running five laps! For those who have not finished shall continue to run till you are done!”

Those who withdrawn midway had barely rested, they forced themselves to join the running team after hearing the instructor’s words.

Looked like…yesterday was indeed just a test.

And today, was the formal training.

These five rounds were inescapable!
