“Wang Ye, the three of you,e and help.”
“Remember, don’t abandon us, don’t give up. We are soldiers, and unity is the first thing we need.”
This time, they ran together for three kilometers, unlike the morning when they were split into two groups. Wang Ye and the other two muscr soldiers were even asked by Ye Sanshi to assist the other recruits of the fifth squad.
Ye Sanshi himself was also helping but in a more forceful manner. He positioned himself at the back of ss Five, and upon noticing anyonegging behind, he would shout and push them ahead.
With their muscles aching, Ye Sanshi’s pushes caused them to take a few steps forward, their faces twitching.
“Don’t stop! It’s just a little soreness. What are you afraid of? I’ll give you a massageter!” Ye Sanshi’s words had a strong impact. The recruits from the fifth squad, feeling their sore muscles, immediately trembled.
“No, I’m fine. Don’t… ss monitor, I’ll keep running, I promise. Brother Wang, 1 don’t need your help anymore!” Gu Yingnan’s face turned pale as she spoke, intentionally releasing herself from Wang Ye’s grip.
He would rather endure the pain than experience Ye Sanshi’s massages again.
The others had a simr reaction, hastily asserting that they were fine and didn’t require a massage.
Wang Ye, Wan Baojiang, and the other two soldiers couldn’t help but grin.
However, in the end, they didn’t get the luxury of a massage.
ording to the ss monitor, their poor performance warranted a massage after running, or they would face the same difort the next morning.
A blood-curdling scream akin to a pig being ughtered once again reverberated through the recruitpany.
Meanwhile, Wang Ye and the others busily massaged their hands and feet, offering assistance.

“Alright, we’ve finished watching today’s news broadcast. Is there anyone willing toe up and share their thoughts?” asked the duty ss monitor at 730.
“Report!”
“Report!”
This time, it was aplete departure from the previous night.
Last night, Wang Ye had been the only one to raise his hand.
However, tonight, as soon as the duty veteran finished speaking, seven or eight hands shot up immediately.
Furthermore, this was the first time it had happened. In the next few seconds, within the entire ssroom, aside from the veterans and the somewhat stunned Wang Ye, all the recruits eagerly raised their hands.
Yet, Wang Ye could discern that only the owners of the first batch of raised hands appeared slightly impatient, clearly eager to take the stage.
Since Wang Ye had be the vice ss monitor the day before, news of his appointment had spread throughout the entirepany, thanks to certain ss monitors intentionally publicizing it.
Moreover, with Wang Ye assuming the role of vice-ss monitor…
Each ss monitor had officially exined the benefits of being the deputy ss monitor to everyone.
How could the ambitious ones remain content?
They were likely already preparing for their evening newsmentary during the day.
How did Wang Ye be the vice ss monitor?
The ss leaders had not divulged the details.
Yet, many recruits had witnessed Wang Ye being the first to rush out after the emergency assembly the previous day.
However, most of the recruits believed that Wang Ye had gained attention through his newsmentary, leading the fifth squad leader to directly appoint him as the vice ss monitor.
He was capable, but so were they.
In fact, some squad leaders had explicitly used the position of vice ss monitor to entice new recruits.
They stated that if a newsmentator volunteered to take the stage first and performed well, they would consider appointing them as the vice ss monitor.
This was how the current situation had unfolded.
Of course, there were also those who didn’t care about bing the vice ss monitor. Some were even unwilling or fearful of stepping onto the stage toment.
Yet, Ye Sanshi’s threat from the previous night had been echoed by almost every squad leader.
Consequently, they had no choice but to raise their hands as well.
However, this action was only taken after observing someone else raise their hand first.
In reality, even as they raised their hands now, they prayed silently.
Please don’t pick me, please don’t pick me.
Sometimes, the more you don’t wish for something to happen, the more likely it is to happen.
The recruits’ hopes and fears held no sway in the eyes of the duty veteran squad leader.
The duty veteran deliberately chose recruits who avoided eye contact and hesitated to raise their hands, ignoring those who raised their hands immediately.
For a moment, the scene after Wang Ye’smentary the previous night was reyed.
This caused the faces of the squad leaders of the chosen recruits to darken.
“A good show awaits us tonight,” murmured Qin Li beside Wang Ye.
The other recruits of the fifth squad secretly breathed a sigh of relief when the evaluation segment concluded because no one from ss Five had been selected that night, despite all of them raising their hands.
ording to the agreement with Ye Sanshi the previous night, didn’t this mean they had passed?
However, reality often deviates from expectations.
They had escaped this ordeal, but Wang Ye noticed that Ye Sanshi’s expression remained stern throughout.
As they dispersed and descended the stairs, silence enveloped the group.
Ye Sanshi wasted no time once they reached the dormitory.
“Look at all of you. Why did you raise your hands slower than the others? Do you think I’m blind? After the first group raised their hands, the rest of you nced around before raising yours. A bunch of cowardly soldiers, are you happy I didn’t call on you tonight?”
In the dormitory, Ye Sanshi’s words weighed heavily on everyone in ss Five, who had believed they were safe for the night.
Lowering their heads, they remained silent.
“Hmph, I don’t break my promises. If you raised your hand today, I won’t drag on you.”
These words brought relief to everyone in ss Five.
Soon though, “But your performance tonight has left me extremely dissatisfied. So…”
Ye Sanshi looked at Zhang Ping’an and said, “Zhang Ping’an, you go first. Let’s start thementary now.”
“Ah! I…”
“Why the hesitation, an ? We speak Mandarin in the army,” Ye Sanshi scolded him, then continued with a stem face. “Hurry up! Except for Vice ss Monitor Wang, none of you can escape tonight. While I won’t drag you out, I never said you couldn’tment in the dormitory, did I?”
This time, the entire ss Five appeared helpless.
They didn’t expect that they’d managed to dodge the bullet, only to fall into another bear trap.
In the end, Zhang Ping’an was the first to take the stage.
Wang Ye couldn’t bear to witness the review process.
Due to the limited time forments, Ye Sanshi spent more time cursing than providing feedback.
Eventually, Zhang Ping’an was scolded to the point of tears…
Fortunately, not everyone suffered like Zhang Ping’an.
Moreover, because they were all prepared to raise their hands, the recruits paid close attention during the news broadcast.
When it was someone else’s turn, most of them stuttered, their voices trembled, and theirments missed the mark, leading to more curses from Ye Sanshi.
However, this hurdle was eventually crossed.
ss Five made it through, but the other sses didn’t fare as well.
As Wang Ye sat in the dormitory, he could hear the ss monitor’s scolding downstairs and recruitsmenting amidst the reprimands.
Ye Sanshi didn’t pull ss Five out for judgment, but the other sses had their entire group of recruits publicly humiliated.
