Chapter 84: Training Complete.
As the two people chatted, Yang Dao realized that Instructor Lin was not radiating the usual cold repulsive aura anymore. She seemed much gentle as if a stream of water flowing calmly through the landscapes. The boy linked this change to the possibility of her breakthrough. Her temperament has not become a reflection of the element she bends.
The boy mumbled in a low voice, "If instructor Lin can be gentle like water, then why is General Bai is so frugal?" his words fell into Lin's ear, the beauty started to laugh. The whole boys were stunned at her beautiful appearance and bell-like laughter. They did not expect the iceberg to have this side as well. Boys have a hyperactive imagination. The laughter of the beauty was linked directly to Yang Dao.
His reputation soared to the skies of their hearts. This guy was not only the genius student but also the genius flower picker(girl picker). Yang Dao would have smashed his head to the pull if he knew their thoughts. Icarus raised his hand slightly with his thumb stuck outside. This act was followed by every boy on the bus.
The girls did not know what they were doing, they asked in a low voice but the guys only ignored them. The fun part was even Victor raised his hand. The mood inside the bus was not as gloomy and solemn as it was earlier. Amidst the faint chatter and chuckles, the bus reached the college. The students were asked to report in the training field.
The training field was big enough for all the squads to gather together. The cadets all stood in the formation of four columns with six squads each. In front of them stood Laohu Bai along with the four instructors, two on each side of her. She spoke in a sonorous voice, "I now proclaim that the mandatory military training is now complete. You all have exceeded your limits in the past few days. I hope you will keep on training yourself to be better. Now I will announce the best squad and the best individual cadet."
Her words made everyone surprised because there was never such a thing mentioned before. The white-haired beauty spoke, "Only when you face competition will you grow. The best squad that took up the challenge and broke through in aspects of all the marking criteria, Discipline, Dedication, Hardwork, Improvement, and Resolve, is Squad A. Give them a huge applause. They have become the first squad in history to have completed the airdrop, in the history of mandatory military training."
She paused and continued with a faint smile, "We come, train students, every year, but this time we came across a squad which completed the final test with all of its squad members." she then asked the squad members to walk over to her one by one as she gave them an embroidered ceremonial scarf. She helped them all wear it around their necks as well. The scarf was a commemorative gift for the best squad. The charm and aura of the squad suddenly increased a lot.
Laohu Bai said as she addressed the crowd, "Every year the best cadet is invited to join the military. This year was the same. The best cadet agreed to join the military but given that his age is too young, he is allowed to report after 3 years, when he reaches the eligible age to enlist. I call forward, the best cadet of this year's military training, Cadet Yang Dao."
The best cadet selection was not surprising at all, everyone knew how big of a chad Yang Dao was in the field. Over the weeks a lot of squad leaders competed against him but all were left in the dust, Icarus the second-best squad leader was a mile away from him so these plebs had no chance at all. But the second half of the news did make them all unsettled.
Yang Dao marched ahead and came in front of Laohu Bai. The boy saluted her which was returned by the lady. Then she gestured to the instructors behind her. Talen and Victor walked forward and pinned a star on each of his shoulders, followed by Lin and Kaya, who pinned a name badge and one pinned the reporting regiment insignia, on his right and left chest, respectively.
The insignia was made of silver, it was as if four comets chasing each other in a circle. When the four stepped back, Laohu Bai stepped forward and placed a crimson beret over his head gently. She whispered in a low voice, "Young Master, you need to take a picture with me later on, Okay?"
Yang Dao replied in an equally low voice, "Can you show some dignity?" his words made the lady pout but her eyes were shining. She took a step back to glance at the handsome boy in front of her. Yang Dao saluted her in all crispness. She said, "Hold it like that."
Quickly took out her phone, adjusted the camera, and clicked a picture. She did not care about the gawking eyes at all. When she saw the annoyed expression on Yang Dao's face, she pursed her lips and returned his salute. Then she said, "Dismiss."
Yang Dao walked back towards the crowd and was immediately surrounded by everyone. Icarus said, "Say, you monster, you are so good that you hooked up with Instructor Lin, and why did you not tell us about this military joining?"
Yang Dao gawked as he said, "When did I hook up instructor Lin?"
Icarus smirked and said, "In the bus, when she laughed, it was because of you right?"
Yang Dao palmed his face and asked, "So, if I can make people laugh then that means I hooked up with them?"
The boys nodded and Yang Dao asked, "So if all of you laughed with me in the past that means you are also hooked up? Are you all using me as an excuse to say that you like men?"
The girls despised the boys while the targets all had crooked faces. They did not expect Yang Dao to be so toxic. They all quickly dispersed. Later after gathering in the classroom, Yang Dao said, "Those who took part in the airdrop are invited to have a meal in the evening. Please tell me if anyone is interested."
All the people who did the airdrop agreed. Yang Dao told them that he would take them all to paradise hotel. Star view Pavillion. They can all mention his name and they will enter. With that said, the boy departed to his house while carrying his luggage in his hand.
