Two hundred push-ups were not an extreme challenge for ordinary soldiers, but this was not just a test of two hundred push-ups. After the push-ups came sit-ups.
Jiang Yan Hai was the first to finish the push-ups. The soldier who had just carried over their equipment immediately came over and held down Jiang Yan Hai's legs. Jiang Yan Hai immediately began the second event: sit-ups.
Two hundred sit-ups. Jiang Yan Hai still did them at maximum speed. In truth, they were no burden to him at all. If anyone knew just how insane Jiang Yan Hai's Physical Training had been over the past week, they would probably be terrified.
Had anyone ever seen someone complete eight hundred burpees in one go?
When he finished that training exercise, Jiang Yan Hai had not even dared do it in front of his comrades. Theoretically, that result was not something a human could achieve, let alone the total amount he completed in a single day.
Only with the help of the Red Star Auxiliary Engine had Jiang Yan Hai been able to do it. Otherwise, his muscles would have been destroyed long ago.
And although it had only been one week, with a physical fitness rating of 150, completing this amount of training was already easy for Jiang Yan Hai.
After he finished two hundred sit-ups at maximum speed, the fastest of the other soldiers had only reached around one hundred and thirty.
Jiang Yan Hai immediately began frog jumps. One hundred frog jumps and two hundred barbell lifts—he completed them all at maximum speed.
Only after finishing all of that did Jiang Yan Hai's breathing become slightly hurried. Overall, his stamina was still in excellent condition.
After finishing, Jiang Yan Hai directly shouldered his pack and began the ten-kilometer armed cross-country run with thirty-five kilograms of gear.
They had a fixed route for the ten-kilometer armed cross-country run. Jiang Yan Hai had run it during recruit training, so he would not get the route wrong.
The moment he put on his pack, Jiang Yan Hai charged out. Watching his speed, Gong Jian took a deep breath. This kid's excellence had surpassed even his expectations!
It was not just his brain. His physical fitness was absurdly exceptional as well. Gong Jian had timed him during those Physical Training events just now. Even in the entire Fourth Company—or even the entire Iron Fist Regiment—his completion speed would probably rank among the top three.
And now, this running speed... it depended on whether he could keep it up. After all, a thirty-five-kilogram armed cross-country run was truly different from ordinary running.
The other soldiers watching had all fallen silent. They had received the same training, so they knew perfectly well what such results meant.
After all, after recruit training ended, many recruits might not even be able to complete this entire set of Physical Training events.
Especially those recruits who had come out in the same batch as Jiang Yan Hai. They could see it even more clearly. This guy's results during recruit training had been near the bottom!
What the hell was this? He had been playing the fool to catch the tiger!
Inhale... exhale... Jiang Yan Hai kept his breathing within a steady rhythm. The Red Star Engine had helped him adjust that breathing pattern. Once he adapted to it, Jiang Yan Hai discovered that it was something special. Its control over physical exertion and adaptability were absolutely top-notch.
Carrying thirty-five kilograms, Jiang Yan Hai maintained his pace and charged toward the destination step by step.
Throughout the entire process, that mysterious power in his muscles did not appear. Nor did he need it. After a week of brutal torment, every muscle group in Jiang Yan Hai's body had already become incredibly powerful.
He could complete this event on his own!
Naturally, no one would follow Jiang Yan Hai for the entire route. But soldiers had been stationed in advance along the ten-kilometer armed cross-country course, so taking shortcuts was out of the question. Cheating was impossible as well.
But when Jiang Yan Hai appeared in Gong Jian's field of vision, Gong Jian could not help widening his eyes. This... was a little too fast, wasn't it?!
It was not only Gong Jian. The other soldiers were equally stunned, because although they had been waiting here for quite some time, they had a rough estimate of the time.
This time was definitely much faster than their usual results!
When Jiang Yan Hai crossed the finish line, Gong Jian immediately announced his result. "Eighty-five minutes, forty-six seconds, point three two!"
Everyone watching fell silent at that result. It sounded like a long time, but what did it actually mean?
It meant that here, it could practically rank first!
Gong Jian felt even more numb inside. As a soldier who had once served in the Wolf Fang Special Forces Brigade, Gong Jian understood very well that this result was not merely outstanding in the Iron Fist Regiment or the Sharpshooter Fourth Company.
Even in the Wolf Fang Special Forces Brigade's combat units, completing those training events in under ninety minutes would count as passing!
In other words, Jiang Yan Hai's physical fitness results had already reached special forces standards!
Gong Jian found it hard to believe. Jiang Yan Hai's recruit training results had been in his hands, after all. Old Hei and he had been responsible for the training back then, so Gong Jian knew exactly what level Jiang Yan Hai had been at. And there was no way Jiang Yan Hai's results back then had been faked.
A person's instinctive physical reactions could not be faked.
But now, only a little over a month had passed, and Jiang Yan Hai's physical fitness had risen to this level? No, what the hell had he done over the past month?
Fine, his brain being smart could be called talent. But how could physical fitness be talent too? Was he going to leave anyone else a chance to live?
What was even more terrifying was Jiang Yan Hai's condition after crossing the finish line. Unlike other soldiers chasing results, who were almost at their physical limits by the time they crossed the line—
Jiang Yan Hai had also expended a great deal of energy, but he clearly still had enough stamina left to fight!
This kind of stamina distribution was obviously already a special forces requirement. In special forces, after completing an armed cross-country run, team members were required to retain a certain amount of physical strength.
Because in wartime, after carrying out such an armed dash, they could very well face a battle that erupted at any moment!
So exhausting all one's strength just for an armed dash was useless for anything except training results.
"Old Hei, confirm the results with every sentry along the route." Gong Jian took a deep breath, steadied his emotions, and spoke directly to Old Hei beside him.
He did not even avoid saying it in front of Jiang Yan Hai, because this was being responsible to Jiang Yan Hai and to the results of every other soldier.
"Yes!" Without another word, Old Hei went to verify the results.
Verifying the results was simple. The sentries along the route all had individual communication systems, so Old Hei returned in less than a minute. "Report! Instructor, there are no issues whatsoever with Jiang Yan Hai's result!"
Although he had already been certain in his heart, Gong Jian still fell silent after receiving Old Hei's confirmation. Today, Jiang Yan Hai was probably going to teach every soldier watching a lesson!
