For ordinary soldiers, 200 push-ups aren't exactly pushing their limits. However, this wasn't just about testing the 200 push-ups; after the push-ups, it was on to sit-ups.

Jiang Yan Hai was the first to finish the push-ups. The soldier who had just brought over their equipment immediately came over to help him by holding down his legs. Jiang Yan Hai then moved directly to the second event: sit-ups.

For 200 sit-ups, Jiang Yan Hai maintained his extreme speed. In reality, this wasn't a burden for him at all. If anyone knew how insane his physical training had been this past week, they would probably be terrified.

Have you ever heard of someone completing 800 burpees in one go?

When he completed that training session, Jiang Yan Hai didn't even dare to do it in front of his comrades because, theoretically, such a result shouldn't be achievable by a human, let alone the total amount completed in a single day.

It was only with the help of the Red Star auxiliary engine that Jiang Yan Hai could possibly achieve it; otherwise, his muscles would have been completely ruined.

Although it had only been a week, with his Physical Fitness at 150, completing this amount of training was already very easy for Jiang Yan Hai.

He completed the 200 sit-ups at extreme speed, while the fastest among the other soldiers had only reached around 130 sit-ups.

Jiang Yan Hai immediately began the frog jumps. He completed the 100 frog jumps and 200 barbell squats at extreme speed.

After completing these, Jiang Yan Hai's breathing was only slightly heavy; overall, his physical condition was still very good.

Once he finished these, Jiang Yan Hai directly shouldered his pack and began the 10-kilometer armed cross-country run with a 35-kilogram load.

For the 10-kilometer armed cross-country run, they all had a fixed route. Jiang Yan Hai had run it during his basic training, so he wouldn't get the route wrong.

After shouldering his pack, Jiang Yan Hai immediately charged forward. Seeing Jiang Yan Hai's speed, Gong Jian took a deep breath. This kid's excellence was exceeding his imagination!

Not only his brain, but his Physical Fitness was also extremely abnormal. When he was doing those physical training events just now, Gong Jian had timed him. Even if placed within the entire Sharpshooter Fourth Company, or even the entire Iron Fist Regiment, that completion speed would likely be among the top three.

And now, this running speed... it all depends on whether he can maintain it. After all, a 35-kilogram armed cross-country run is truly different from just running.

The other soldiers watching had already fallen silent. They had all undergone the same training, so they clearly understood what such results meant.

Keep in mind that after basic training, many new recruits might not even be able to complete this set of physical training exercises.

Especially those new recruits who came out in the same batch as Jiang Yan Hai; they had a more direct understanding now. This guy's performance during basic training was at the very bottom!

What the hell is this? This is playing the pig to eat the tiger!

Hoo... breathe... Jiang Yan Hai maintained a stable rhythm in his breathing. This was the breathing rhythm adjusted with the help of the Red Star Engine system. After adapting, Jiang Yan Hai found that this breathing rhythm had something special about it, especially in terms of controlling his physical stamina and adaptability, which were definitely top-notch.

With the 35-kilogram armed cross-country run, Jiang Yan Hai maintained a steady speed, moving step by step towards the destination.

Throughout the entire process, that mysterious power within his muscles did not appear, nor was it needed. Jiang Yan Hai's entire muscle groups had already become extremely powerful through the week of insane training.

He could complete this event on his own!

Naturally, others wouldn't be following Jiang Yan Hai the entire way. However, soldiers were stationed along the 10-kilometer armed cross-country route in advance, so there was no point in thinking about taking shortcuts or cheating.

But when Jiang Yan Hai appeared in Gong Jian's line of sight, he couldn't help but widen his eyes. This... was a bit too fast?!

It wasn't just Gong Jian; all the other soldiers were shocked. Although they had been waiting here for a long time, they had some sense of the time.

This time was definitely much faster than their usual completion times!

When Jiang Yan Hai crossed the finish line, Gong Jian immediately announced his result: "85 minutes 46.32 seconds!"

This result caused everyone watching to fall silent. While the time seemed long, what did this result actually signify?

It meant that among them, it could almost rank first!

Gong Jian's heart felt somewhat numb. As a former soldier who had served in the Wolf Fang Special Forces Brigade, Gong Jian understood very well that this result, let alone in the Iron Fist Regiment or the Sharpshooter Fourth Company.

Even within the combat units of the Wolf Fang Special Forces Brigade, completing those training events within 90 minutes was considered passing!

In other words, Jiang Yan Hai's physical fitness had reached the standard of special forces!

This made Gong Jian feel a sense of disbelief. Jiang Yan Hai's results during basic training were still in his hands. After all, Old Hei and he were responsible for the training back then, so Gong Jian knew very well what level Jiang Yan Hai was at. Moreover, Jiang Yan Hai's results at that time couldn't have been faked.

The body's instinctive reactions couldn't be faked.

But now, in just over a month, Jiang Yan Hai's physical fitness standard had improved to this level? No, what exactly did you do during this month?

It's one thing that your brain is smart; that's considered talent. But how can physical fitness also become talent? This leaves no room for others to live.

Even more frightening was Jiang Yan Hai's condition after crossing the finish line. Unlike other soldiers who pursued results and were almost at their physical limit after crossing the finish line.

Jiang Yan Hai's condition, while also greatly depleted, clearly still had combat capability!

This allocation of physical stamina clearly met the requirements of special forces. Within special forces, after completing an armed cross-country run, it is required that team members must retain a certain level of physical stamina.

This is because during wartime, after such an armed march, it is very likely that a war could break out at any moment!

Therefore, simply exhausting all physical stamina for the sake of the armed march was useless except for training scores.

"Old Hei, confirm the results with all the sentries along the route," Gong Jian took a deep breath, stabilized his emotions, and directly said to Old Hei beside him.

He didn't even try to hide it from Jiang Yan Hai, because this was for Jiang Yan Hai's responsibility, and also for the results of all the other soldiers.

"Yes!" Old Hei didn't say a word and went to confirm the results.

Confirming the results was simple. The sentries along the route all had individual communication systems, so within a minute, Old Hei returned, "Report! Instructor, Jiang Yan Hai's results are all correct!"

Although he had already confirmed it in his heart, after receiving Old Hei's confirmation, Gong Jian was silent for a moment. Today, Jiang Yan Hai was probably going to teach a lesson to all the observing soldiers!
