It seems that Yavi's information was wrong.
The No.1 Military Academy does have arduous training, but it is all for good reason, like right after enrollment this time.
The new students at the No.1 Military Academy would have nothing to eat if they did not complete the running training within the stipulated time.
Ren Yunying only gave each of them one steamed bun and one bowl of porridge, with special nutrients added that would provide complete energy replenishment and give a feeling of fullness after eating, but it was made extremely unpalatable on purpose, tasting like congealed wax oil in the mouth and smelling like months-old gutter oil fermented in a sewer.
In short, no one wanted to eat this stuff, but without eating there would be no energy to train, no training would mean inability to run 5 km within the stipulated time, so they had to continue eating the buns and porridge.
A vicious cycle.
Some of the cubs were not even 13 years old yet and had been pampered at home, this was the first time they experienced something like this.
Many people started crying after taking a bite of the steamed bun.
There were the most Vampire cubs, and Chloe did not care at all, no matter how they cried, she would eventually drive them to train.
It was good to let them cry and vent their emotions now.
Chloe finished eating a whole steamed bun and also wolfed down the porridge, her mouth tasting bitter now and her teeth also felt itchy.
She was afraid she might lose control and start biting people randomly, so she took out her bite guard from Anderson's arms and put it on.
The next moment, everyone looked towards her.
That look was extremely creepy.
Chloe put her hands in her pockets, glared at them fiercely with unkind eyes, and bared her fangs viciously: "What, never seen a bite guard before?"
Everyone quickly averted their eyes.
Only the Vampire cubs listened obediently, while the people of other races all stared at Chloe secretly.
The Human Race was still good, they only took a glance before starting to train silently, the Elf Race wasn't very interested in this, only the Werewolf Race.
Those guys with tumors in their brains stretched out their hands to mimic the bite guard, then put it on their own mouths and let out mocking laughs.
Chloe was so angry at what she saw that she even wanted to take off the bite guard directly and bite off the werewolf's head.
Fortunately, Anderson stopped her just in time.
Chloe rolled her eyes, shook off Anderson's hand, and thought viciously that she would subdue those werewolves sooner or later.
Although her body now had energy again, Chloe, having just finished running, did not want to continue training, but sat in the sun instead.
Over there, Qin Huaibei had already led the Human Race to continue training, exceptionally diligent.
In fact, if she didn't have to lead all the Vampire cubs, Chloe herself could have easily finished running 5 km in 25 minutes or even 23 minutes. After all, she was not a spoiled young lady from some perspectives.
Although Xavier indulged her, he did not show mercy at all during training, almost training Chloe to death.
But after entering the No.1 Military Academy, with so many cubs of the same race behind her, Chloe knew she couldn't just think about herself, she had to consider them too.
Now the cubs were obviously reluctant to move, so Chloe was going to let them rest for a while longer.
As for the Human Race side...it could only be said that they were indeed cubs who had been training in military academy before, although they were the same age, they obviously had more perseverance.
Chloe felt a twitch in her heart as she looked at her race members lying limply on the ground pretending to be dead.
As for the leader of the Human Race, Qin Huaibei, he seemed to be an extraordinarily noble character.
Chloe stopped him at one point to ask why he started training so quickly.
At that time, Qin Huaibei had a very serious look on his face and said, "As the leader who should take the lead, I failed to foresee the harshness of the military academy test beforehand, resulting in the entire race failing the test. It was my dereliction of duty."
Upon hearing this, Chloe was extremely shocked.
He really was a very noble person, she felt inferior.
Chloe deeply reflected on herself, but she didn't have the state of mind Qin Huaibei had. No matter how she tried to justify it to herself, there was always a voice deep down telling her—
The reason for the failure was that her race members were too weak, and it had nothing to do with her as the number one expert of the entire race.
Chloe: "..."
She casually stood up, ignoring her entire race's sudden louder wails, put her hands on her hips and scolded:
"Cubs, get up now, immediately, right this moment!"
The Vampire cubs had no choice but to get up with sad crying faces and stand on the running track to start a new round of training.
Chloe handed Anderson the stopwatch and let him stand at the finish line to time them.
Seeing this, Yavi clamored from behind: "Why doesn't he have to train with us!"
Chloe looked at him coldly: "Can you cross the finish line together with Anderson and me?"
Yavi immediately shut up. Indeed he couldn't.
Seeing that the Vampires had started training too, the Elves looked at each other and started moving as well.
Relying on its own power, the Human Race had set the Vampires in motion, then in turn the movement of Vampires set the Elves in motion. At this moment only the Werewolves were still slowly eating their steamed buns and porridge in place.
Not far away on the top floor of a tall building, Ren Yunying stood by the window, looking at the first grade new students below who were training hard on the runway.
Behind her was an old man wearing reading glasses who was hale and hearty, sitting at a table drinking tea, and said: “The new students this year seem to be very motivated!”
Ren Yunying retracted her gaze, “The Werewolves are still the same as before, as if laziness was engraved in their genes.”
“However, the performance of the Vampires is exceptionally excellent this year.” Ren Yunying handed the form to the old man and placed her fingertips behind Chloe’s name, “She is the leader of the Vampires this year, quite an interesting little girl.”
The old man came to be interested, “Oh? How so?”
Ren Yunying said: “She has a strong sense of teamwork instead of just blind recklessness. I observed that she obviously still had energy left after running, but intentionally slowed down the pace to cater to her companions.”
Her gaze was rather profound: “Not even Xavier back in the days ever considered others like this.”
It was tacitly understood that this kind of spirit in supporting each other was something that only the Human Race had.
Extremely rare among other races, especially for Vampires and Werewolves.
The No.1 Military Academy had tried to cultivate this kind of precious spirit before, but to no avail.
Even Xavier, the one whom the old man loved the most back then, looked down on this idea.
His words were: "I am already strong enough, I don't need to cater to anyone, I can still lead them to victory."
Although from a certain point of view, he was not wrong with this statement.
But for a race to become powerful, it cannot rely solely on the person in charge.
This is undoubtedly extremely dangerous.
Once something happened to Xavier, the Vampires would be akin to a snake without a head, and what they would face then is the crisis of extermination.
The original purpose of establishing the No.1 Military Academy was to keep the major races balanced and in a stalemate. As long as they were equally powerful and mutually deterred, a crisis devastating enough to destroy the entire continent would not happen.
And this time, this lethal flaw for Vampires seemed to have the possibility to be filled in.
Ren Yunying saw the opportunity in Chloe.
