Chapter 152: Devilish Military Training
“Hello!”
Qin Chuan picked up the call.
“Is this Zhao Xuanxuan’s family member, Mr. Qin Chuan?”
Qin Chuan froze before replying, “Yes, that’s me.”
“Hello, Mr. Qin. I’m calling from Gold Sea University. We haven’t been able to contact Zhao Xuanxuan, so we had to call you.”
Since it was a call from the school, Qin Chuan immediately lowered his guard.
He replied, “May I know why you are looking for her?”
“Mr. Qin. According to the arrangements made by the higher-ups, all enrolled students are to return to school for military training.
“Military training has been ongoing for more than three months, but we haven’t managed to contact Zhao Xuanxuan. So I’m afraid I’ll have to trouble you to tell her to return to school as soon as possible.”
After Qin Chuan heard this, he pondered for a moment.
He was aware of military training in school, but he did not expect a student like Zhao Xuanxuan, who was about to graduate, to participate.
But compared to cultivation, there’s no point in military training.
Hence, Qin Chuan asked, “Is participation in this military training compulsory?”
“Mr. Qin, this is mandated by higher management. As long as they have not graduated, they are required to participate.”
“And if they don’t?”
“If they do not return, the student’s future employment may be affected, but we don’t know the exact details.
“In any case, if Zhao Xuanxuan is unable to participate for some reason, it would be best for her to return to school to settle the relevant procedures not to affect her work life in the future.
“Mr. Qin, is this okay?”
Qin Chuan thought for a moment. He understood that what the other party said wasn’t unreasonable. There were all sorts of rules and regulations in life. Even if one were to embark on the path of immortality, they would have to accommodate the secular world before leaving behind their mortal bodies.
Thus, he replied, “I will talk to Xuanxuan.”
“Thank you, Mr. Qin. Can you give me a call before 6 PM tonight?”
“Sure!”
“Thank you. Sorry to trouble you.”
…
After hanging up, Qin Chuan returned to the sect.
He immediately went to find Zhao Xuanxuan and told her about the matters in school.
Zhao Xuanxuan had wanted to continue cultivating in the sect.
However, she decided to make a trip back since it was an important mandate for her future.
She understood that there would be no restrictions after graduation, and she could better allocate her time.
Hence, Zhao Xuanxuan weighed her options and decided to finish her studies before returning to cultivate.
“There’s only a year left, and it will pass in a blur.”
After Qin Chuan heard this, he didn’t have any objections. After all, this was her own choice. He wouldn’t interfere.
Hence, he called the school.
…
Two days later.
Qin Chuan brought Zhao Xuanxuan to Gold Sea University.
Like other universities, Gold Sea University had also begun conducting military training.
As one of the top ten key universities in the country, the allocation of staff was much stricter than that of ordinary universities.
There were more than ten security guards at the entrance.
Qin Chuan and Zhao Xuanxuan walked towards the main entrance, quickly attracting the attention of the security guards.
They stood in front of Qin Chuan and Zhao Xuanxuan, making a stop sign.
With a smile on his face, he said, “Please stop here. The university is currently in the midst of military training; it will not be not open to outsiders for the time being.”
The security guard’s tone was polite; he was not aggressive.
After all, he was a staff of an institute of higher learning. He had indeed gotten the quality part down.
Since the school had been conducting military training for some time, he subconsciously treated Qin Chuan and Zhao Xuanxuan as members of the public who were unaware of the situation.
As such, Zhao Xuanxuan took out her student pass and said, “Hello, I’m an enrolled student here. I’m returning to school today.”
The security guard frowned and took the student pass for a closer look.
Then, he tapped it at the turnstile at the gate. The system showed that she was an enrolled student.
However, this was a special period, so the security guard reported the situation just in case.
A few minutes later, a female advisor arrived.
Zhao Xuanxuan knew this advisor. She was in charge of her year.
The counselor also recognized Zhao Xuanxuan, and she greeted her from afar.
“Zhao Xuanxuan, you’re finally back. I haven’t been able to contact you. I thought something had happened!” The advisor looked worried.
Zhao Xuanxuan casually replied, “I changed my number because my SIM card broke.”
“Oh, I see.
“If something similar happens again in the future, remember to let me know. Social media is so convenient these days. You should understand where I’m coming from. My higher-ups had been putting me under a lot of pressure because I couldn’t contact you.”
“Sorry…” Zhao Xuanxuan lowered her head, feeling a little guilty.
This advisor was quite caring to her usually. After all, she was in charge of so many students. It was truly very responsible of her that she could remember her.
However, she could only apologize now. She couldn’t possibly say that she had isolated herself from the outside world due to her cultivation.
“Since you’re back, hurry up and report to class. You’re the only one left from your class now.”
“Okay.”
“And this is?” The advisor looked at Qin Chuan.
“He’s my brother.” Zhao Xuanxuan added, “Sister Chen, can my brother go in with me?”
Everyone addressed her this way in school.
“Ah, well…” The advisor seemed troubled.
“Sister Chen, just for a while. My brother will leave very soon.”
Zhao Xuanxuan clasped her hands together, her bright eyes shined pleadingly, making it hard for others to refuse.
“You!” The advisor smiled helplessly. “Alright! Don’t stay for too long, or I won’t be able to answer to my superiors. Unlock the turnstile.”
The moment the advisor finished speaking, the security personnel unlocked the turnstile.
“Hehe! Thank you, Sister Chen!” Zhao Xuanxuan was instantly overjoyed.
Qin Chuan picked up Zhao Xuanxuan’s luggage. There were four cases of different sizes. He stacked them together and lifted them. The sight stunned the few security guards.
“Your brother… is so strong…”
The advisor was also dumbfounded.
“Of course. He’s very capable.”
Zhao Xuanxuan sounded very smug.
Then, they walked into the campus.
The military training at the university had been going on for more than three months.
Other than the daily routine of standing at ease, standing at attention, and marching, the current program now had a lot of physical training added to it.
Gold Sea University had three sports fields.
Presently, endurance running was taking place in an orderly manner.
The instructors followed behind their respective classes. They were in charge of accompanying the students. If they discovered anyone who had fallen behind, they would immediately berate them loudly, regardless of gender.
In addition, taking leave was not allowed unless there were special circumstances.
Such devilish military training was on the same level as those for military units.
Although the students had complaints, the school had mandated it, after all. Considering their future careers, they could only obey.
It was not easy for them to get into this university.
A good university meant a good job in the future.
At the end of the day, it was all for the sake of life. It didn’t matter if they had to suffer a little at the beginning.
…
On the other side.
Qin Chuan and Zhao Xuanxuan walked towards the dormitory.
As they passed by a tall building, they suddenly heard rustling sounds from above.
