Chapter 148: Oppression -1.... 15 days of militaryThe Next day,
There was a loud bell ringing all over the camp before dawn. This is the call for assembly.
All the candidates came out of their tents as fast as they can and assembled just like the day before.
Instructor Jian, is standing at the same place as yesterday.
After the people assembled, he spoke with a smile.
"Everyone, todays, training will be along with a company from my regiment. You will follow their way for the whole day.
But before that, divide yourself into squads. Each squad should have seven members and there would be a total of fourteen squads along with two company commanders. These positions will be only valid for these three days.
After three days, the new instructor will come and you will divide yourselves into new squads and new companies.
But this situation is only for first fifteen days.
After the first fifteen days, the instructors will finalise your squads and commanders. Till, then try to prove yourselves and get the approval of the instructors to get the position you deserve."
As soon as he said these words, many people became excited.
Many of them raised their hands to speak and all of them are too eager as they wanted to get the chance to talk first and become the company commander as soon as possible.
"Discuss yourselves and decide. I will give you five minutes. If there are only two people left after that, I would just let them be, but if there are still more people, I will select the two from them."
At this moment, a young man started walking over to them.
He is wearing an Electric blue uniform and there is a thunder symbol on his chest. Everyone just looked at him in awe, particularly the people from the Southern Star city.
Because they knew what that electric blue uniform signifies.
But among the whole group, only more than ten people are looking at the legs of the young man, more precisely at his feet.
Because, the young man’s footsteps didn’t have any sound or any foot prints. His feet seemed to be light and as if he is floating without any traces which showed the control of his legs.
This guy, must be good at movement techniques or good at his kicking techniques, most probably both of them.
The young man looked rather proud and his eyes are full of confidence. He walked over to the team members and looked around as if he was scanning them without even greeting the Instructor.
His gaze landed on Blue Fire and Zeke, he waved at them and the duo waved back.
Then only he looked at the instructor and greeted him.
"Hello, Regiment Commander Jian."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Hello, Jim. What are you doing here? Is there no training in the Thunder Wolf Squad?" Instructor didn’t seem to mind his attitude at all.
When the candidates heard the words Thunder Wolf Squad, they couldn’t help but feel the unwavering admiration, well not all of them at least ninety of them.
The young man whose name is Jim is only a Peak stage Novice and he seemed to be in his early twenties.
When compared to the other candidates, their talent is around same level, but the Thunder Wolf Squad’s Halo is making him look like he is above his peers and not all of them could see through that Halo.
Jim looked at Jian and said.
"Well, I heard that Teacher’s (General Spark) Grand sons came to the city and are the part of this batch, so I came to greet them. If you don’t mind, I want to talk to them for a bit."
Even though, his words were like seeking permission, his tone of voice is saying otherwise.
Instructor Jian, just nodded with a smile albeit a bit forced. Zeke and Blue fire walked out and the three of them walked a few yards a away as they talked.
Jim looked at the batch from time to time and Sam could feel his condescending gaze landing on him.
After a few minutes, Zeke and Blue fire merged back into the group, while Jim talked to Jian privately.
Before leaving, he shot a gaze full of mischievous glint towards Sam.
Sam knew at once that trouble has come knocking.
And his guess was right, Jian looked at Sam with some hesitation before announcing to the group.
"For the first three days, I will select the company commanders. Zeke and Sam step forward."
Everyone immediately fell silent; they didn’t understand why the instructor suddenly changed his decision.
But they didn’t dare to talk back even though they are a little unsatisfied.
Sam also didn’t say anything and just stepped forward.
The Instructor said.
"You both will be the company commanders for the next three days. You are responsible for monitoring the training and controlling your whole company, you can decide on how the squads will be divided and who would be the squad captains.
You are the only one responsible for your teams."
After the announcement was over, Sam let them divide themselves as the squads on their own. He is not particularly interested, but he did do his job by solving some conflicts on squad leaders and their training requirements.
There are many types of training facilities, target practices, close combat practice, arena, dodging practice. They are plenty.
Sam looked through the info regarding their powers and started making the schedule for their training. After all, not all of them can practice at the same time.
After divulging everything, he was about to go to his training, but suddenly he heard a shout.
"Sam."
Jian shouted on top of his lungs, to let the whole batch stop their activities in the middle and looked at him.
Sam walked towards him with his back straight as he looked at Jian, he didn’t expect that they would trouble him so desperately. But he still kept his patience.
He decided that he would not, do anything for the first fifteen days, he would see how far they want to go.
But these guys are even more desperate than he thought.
Jian said in a strict voice.
"Sam, your subordinate is idling and sat under the tree there, what are you doing without checking on him." He said as he pointed at the tree.
There, Sam saw a person standing with his spear in his hand as he closed his eyes while facing the tree.
He is a wood element Warrior mage, everyone with some expertise could see that he is trying to practice something special just from the activity of the spiritual energy around him.
But the instructor who is a Grand Realm cultivator is saying that he is idling around.
Sam didn’t answer as he just looked at the instructor with a cold gaze.
"Due to your incompetence, minus five points." Sam didn’t say anything and just left the place, but for the whole day he was being called out and being rebuked under the gazes of all the candidates.
"SAM... Minus 3 points"
"SAM... Minus 6 points."
"SAM... Minus 8 points."
Sam kept on hearing these words for the rest of the day.
At first, the candidates thought that Sam did really make mistake, but later they understood something was off.
When they thought of how, instructor changed his mind after Jim came and how he appointed Sam as company commander and then kept on targeting him, they connected the dots and came to a conclusion.
Sam is being targeted. But they are curious on who did he piss off so much to be targeted like this.
After the whole day’s routine was over, Sam was about to go to his tent along with Hawk and Drew, but that doesn’t seem to be so easy.
But this time, Sam is not the target but Hawk and Drew.
A soldier came out of nowhere and challenged Hawk. Leaving the latter in a battered state after the spar.
Sam looked for medical help but that didn’t go as planned.
"What is wrong?" Sam asked the in charge of the infirmary.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Healers are busy." This is the only response; Sam has gotten in return.
He couldn’t do anything but carry Hawk inside the tent and heal him. Because, he has to be ready for the next day’s routine.
But before he could do anything, Drew was challenged.
"I heard you are a swordsman, let me take a look at those skills."
"As you wish."
Both of them started sparring, as expected the soldier who came is of higher level than Drew.
But the worst part is that he was not even being given a chance to admit defeat.
And for the whole night, Sam kept on assembling their bones and fixing their bodies.
Even the candidates were a little troubled, they didn’t like how the instructor is troubling Sam that much. He lost more than 35 points in three days.
The same thing happened for the three days and after the instructor changed and the new instructor was about to take charge and just when everyone thought that things go to normal, the candidates were surprised.
Because, another person with Thunder Wolf squad’s uniform came.
Sam didn’t know what to do. He could only shake his head as he looked at the instructor.
All the candidates have a weird sense of dejavu. They could see that Sam is not going to have any good time soon.
The same things repeated time and time again.
But the instructors didn’t go overboard as Instructor Jian.
They acted a bit mildly in the aspect of reducing points but for the rebukes and scolding along with the shaming and insulting are on full swing. But they still lost around 80 points.
For the first fourteen days, Sam, Hawk, Drew went through a lot. The latter two took a beating and it is almost every day.
On fourteenth day night, Sam is healing Hawk and Drew.
Blue fire came into the tent and said to both of them.
"You guys would save a lot of trouble if you distance with him. Even though, it is late for you to get out of the team, I would arrange you two be soldiers or I can even give you a chance to get into the Marquis academy. You better think carefully."
Sam looked at the two of them.
For the past two weeks, they didn’t say a single thing. They just took the beatings and even though they won some battles it didn’t make much difference.
"You know what, his suggestion is not that bad." Sam said casually.
Hawk just chuckled and said.
"Well, we are here mostly because of your help, even if I believe I can make the cut, I am not too sure of it. You helped us before, how could we just leave you because you are in a bit trouble."
"Yeah, and this whole thing came from Zeke, even if you haven’t found a problem with him, I would have done so. Then I would have been in same situation." Drew said from the side.
Sam just shook his head and said.
"Anyway, rest well, we have a break tomorrow we would see what is happening outside. I will think of way to get rid of these troubles after seeing the outside situation."
