Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 343: Chapter 343 Heavenly Master 50

When Shuangshuang came home, her mentor Chen Qi was already there and had prepared a huge spread of delicious dishes, including several meat dishes, allowing the mentor and student finally some time to chat and catch up.

Shuangshuang also took out the Little House Nightmare she acquired and showed it to Chen Qi. Little Shun was chewing contentedly on the meat offered by Shuangshuang. A House Nightmare is a special creature, not a human but a living being, not the soul of the dead, so it can directly eat the food of the mortal world without needing someone to offer it purposely.

The Little House Nightmare that Shuangshuang took out was now running all over the table on its tiny feet, stopping to look longingly at the dishes it wanted to eat, gazing at Shuangshuang and Chen Qi.

This little creature was quite endearing when it acted cute, and Chen Qi really liked it. He deliberately took a small plate and scooped some food toward it whenever it lingered in front of a dish. The little nightmare holding its face kept thanking Chen Qi, amusing him greatly.

Seeing that Chen Qi liked it, Shuangshuang decided to leave the House Nightmare with her mentor for amusement since she had already taught it the Cultivation Method. The rest of the training depended on whether this little creature was diligent and hard-working enough.

The trip Situ Shuangshuang took to deal with Bai Mengling’s matter took a considerable amount of time, and now, in just a few days, school was starting. High school meant participating in military training, which was incredibly easy for Shuangshuang. Her Heavenly Master training was extremely intense, making the difficulty of military training seem like nothing more than a light drizzle, completely insignificant.

So Shuangshuang entered school with a relaxed mindset. She had been feeling very happy lately, and maybe it was just an illusion, but she realized that she had been less impulsive and angry than before. This was indeed a good thing!

It seemed that her constant self-restraint was having an effect, and if things continued this way, there would come a day when she wouldn’t have to wear an icy exterior and reject any interactions with others or struggle to control her temper.

This time, the school took the high school military training very seriously. With the nation increasingly emphasizing health and strength, all schools started focusing on students’ physical education scores. The PE class, once overshadowed by literature and science, was finally returned to the PE teachers and students.

To ensure the quality of this military training, school leaders even coordinated with the military to allocate some dormitories for the students participating in military training. This time, the school was determined to let these pampered princesses and princes experience a real soldier’s life!

All students needing military training gathered at school, then took a bus together to the camp for a seven-day closed military training.

The camp was constructed simply, and the military’s living arrangement was one room per class. Students had to follow the same rule.

Shuangshuang ended up in an 8-person room, which was quite spacious. A row of eight beds lined up neatly, with blankets folded to perfection with sharp corners! The room’s arrangement was simple, and although many people lived there, it didn’t feel cramped but rather clean and bright.

Eight girls moved into the room, and after everyone exchanged names, they quickly became acquainted, chatting non-stop. Shuangshuang was an exception, with her strong and aloof aura making her seem unapproachable, and no girl dared to approach her.

Shuangshuang was happy to have peace, fearing that getting close to them might cause an outburst triggered by a wrong word, forcing her to recite the Calming Incantation to quell her anger. It was better to spend the seven days alone.

No high-intensity training was scheduled on the first day. Instead, an instructor taught each class housekeeping skills, like making beds and folding quilts, with quilt folding being the most important because it was the hardest part.

Folding them neatly was manageable, but folding them into sharp, square tofu-like corners was difficult. All the students spent the afternoon tangled with a single quilt. Finally, the handsome, hard-of-heart instructor deemed their efforts to pass muster before leaving, leaving the girls collapsed on their beds groaning, complaining about the difficulty and wondering how they’d endure real training!

That evening, everyone was called for dinner. The camp food wasn’t bad, at least not for Shuangshuang. She found it tasty and nutritious, while her classmates seemed to find it bland and flavorless.

In the army, nutrition came first, taste second, and picky eating was not allowed. Everyone received one portion of each dish and had to eat everything. While they could take less food more frequently, leaving food resulted in a running penalty. Everyone had to wash their own dishes.

It was unclear if the self-washing and no-food-left policy was a camp rule or something the school added to foster student independence, but the students found it challenging.

After the meal, those with refined tastes were still hungry, while those who took too much were painfully full. Those who defiantly left food were taken to the field, where an instructor personally oversaw their running until they completed the punishment, no matter how late it got.

Two girls cried as they ran, their pitiful appearance evoking sympathy, but the instructor, with a heart of stone, just watched as the two wept with grief and continued to insist that they complete the runs before resting!

While the punished ran circles, those not penalized practiced standing at attention, boys in one line, girls in another, forming long rows facing each other.

A few instructors with severe expressions and upright postures walked between the boys and girls, correcting anyone with incorrect posture.

Finally, it was time for rest. The instructor came to search everyone’s luggage, confiscating phones, snacks, and tablets to be returned after military training. After the instructor left, a new wave of groans arose in the dorm, with the girl next to Shuangshuang lying on her bed devastated, exclaiming, ”No phones! No snacks! How is this life any different from being a salted fish!”

Shuangshuang was the only one unaffected, as she didn’t use her phone much and, being so frugal, she couldn’t justify buying snacks.

After seven days of military training, these pampered princesses and princes were thoroughly exhausted! Returning home was like being released from prison, and they almost ran away from the camp with cheers!
