Chapter 278: Chapter 271: Afraid of You? I’ve Got Brother Yan!"If he doesn’t step forward, your punishment will be doubled. If he does, your punishment will be halved!" As soon as Instructor Xu’s words fell, all the new cadets in the formation turned their gazes towards Bai Yan, even the students from other classes who were spectators turned to look, all curiously peering and discussing. "Look! That kid is Bai Yan!" "Damn, look at those skinny arms and legs, can he really do fifty push-ups?" "This instructor is obviously targeting Bai Yan!" "Just now I heard Bai Yan was late, the instructor didn’t get to punish him, probably he’s unsatisfied with Bai Yan, so he’s deliberately picking on him." "Such a pity, Bai Yan’s going to suffer, to offend the instructor on the first day of military training! There’s still a whole month to go!" People around them were looking at Bai Yan with curiosity, confusion, and mockery in their eyes, the expressions varied, some were laughing at him, others sympathetic. Bai Yan lifted his head, calmly glanced at the new cadets in the formation, the looks from Class 23 were complex, filled with hope and resentment. When they learned that Bai Yan, the pride of overseas Chinese students, chose their major and same class, how excited they were! Bai Yan was the pride of Class 23, but now he became a burden during military training. Good grades and fame don’t mean good physical fitness. Strictly speaking, Bai Yan had nothing to do with the punishment; he stood at attention very properly, and didn’t utter a single unnecessary word. He shouldn’t be punished! But the intent of Instructor Xu was already very clear, he was targeting Bai Yan! If he can’t punish Bai Yan, then he’ll punish others! Some hoped he would step forward, others did not. The new cadets looked at Bai Yan with mixed feelings. Would he step forward? This man, seen as the pride of the class by the new cadets! Bai Yan smiled, he still remembered the words of the young instructor. "Reporting, I choose to do push-ups!" Bai Yan walked out calmly, his clear voice spreading across the drill ground. He really did step forward! The eyes of the new cadets in Class 23 stared fixedly at Bai Yan’s figure, their gazes filled with a touch of excitement and a hint of guilt. Everyone was startled, none had expected Bai Yan would stand up and confront Instructor Xu’s targeting directly! "Good! You’ve got some sense, kid!" Instructor Xu sneered: "Fifty each! Do it now!" Seven or eight boys still had pale faces, bitter expressions on their lips. Even with Bai Yan stepping forward, besides punishing them together, it was useless. "No need, I’ll do theirs." Bai Yan slightly squinted his eyes, coldly interrupting Instructor Xu. Not only were the punished new cadets stunned, so were the counselors, other classes of onlookers, and Instructor Xu himself! "You’ll do it for them? Let me tell you, taking punishment on behalf of others means doubling it according to military rules!" Instructor Xu sneered: "Eight people, fifty each, that’s a total of four hundred push-ups. Doubled, you need to do eight hundred push-ups!" "Hisss~!" "Eight hundred!" Everyone’s body shook, all inhaling a breath of cold air. This Instructor Xu is really too harsh! He’s out to break Bai Yan! Sёarch* The nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Bai Yan is just a student! The instructor is treating him like a professional soldier! Even these instructors who usually train in military schools wouldn’t dare say they could do eight hundred push-ups surely! "No problem." Bai Yan smiled. "Fine, you do it!" Instructor Xu laughed heartily: "If something goes wrong halfway, I won’t care! You asked for this yourself!" "Bai Yan, don’t overdo it!" The counselor became anxious; 800 push-ups, even if it was a professional athlete in another sport, would not dare to say that after standing for most of the morning they could still perform so many push-ups! Bai Yan smiled, walked in front of the few pale-faced cadets, and patted them on the shoulder: "You guys take a rest." "Bai Yan... no, Brother Yan! Thank you!" These few new cadets, pale-faced, looked at Bai Yan filled with gratitude. "Remember well." Bai Yan looked indifferently at Instructor Xu, under his sneering watch, Bai Yan began to do push-ups in front of everyone. "One, two, three..." Instructor Xu’s eyes sparkled, he really wanted to pick out some flaws in Bai Yan’s movements, but Bai Yan’s push-ups were extremely standard! Just like a professional soldier! He couldn’t find any fault! Fine! Let’s see how long you can last! Instructor Xu sneered and continued counting. The sun was scorching high in the sky, the green grass field, the sun blazing, under the watchful eyes of all. Bai Yan’s movements were steady, well-ordered, each push-up followed one after another. "How many has it been..." "The instructor has counted to 200!" "He’s taking the punishment for his classmate..." "This Bai Yan... I’m speechless, respect! No wonder the new students of Class 23 admire him so much!" "Suddenly, I find myself admiring him a bit too." "Fuck! Bai Yan is truly the man!" "I’m convinced! Totally convinced!" People kept gathering around, whispering to each other and watching the scene unfold. Boys, girls, and the freshmen of Class 23 still standing at attention were all watching this scene. The boys admired him; the girls covered their mouths in surprise. The freshmen from Class 23 started to look at Bai Yan with increasingly fervent eyes, going from admiration to fanaticism! That’s our Bai Yan! That’s the student who brought glory to Chinese international students abroad! This is a real man who stands up for his comrades at the crucial moment! "Three hundred and one! Three hundred and two!" Instructor Xu was still counting, but the murmuring of the students around him made his expression very ugly. He had intended to embarrass Bai Yan, but instead, he made everyone start admiring him! "Three hundred and three! Three hundred and four!" Suddenly, someone else began to shout, a second voice joined in the counting! It was a male student from Class 23, disregarding the astonished looks of everyone around him, standing in the queue, his eyes passionately fixed on Bai Yan’s movements as he shouted loudly, "Three hundred and five! Three hundred and six! Three hundred and seven!" "You! Who said you could talk! Come out, punishment! Fifty push-ups!" Instructor Xu was furious. Someone actually dared to challenge his authority? "I’ll do them for him, just double them, plus another hundred." Bai Yan chuckled indifferently, his movements were not even slightly disorganized, his arms as strong as steel, showing no signs of fatigue. "I’m not afraid of you? I have Brother Yan!" The boy gave him a disdainful look, stood up, and continued to shout the count for Bai Yan. "Three hundred and eight!" "Three hundred and nine!" His words undoubtedly ignited the anger of the young guys in Class 23. "Fuck, we have Bai Yan, we’re not afraid of damn anything!" His shouting grew louder as more and more people left the queue of Class 23, standing behind the boy, they all shouted together. "Three hundred and ten!" "Three hundred and eleven!" You are the instructor, and we are the freshmen. We can’t beat you or defy you, but we can support Bai Yan! Bai Yan is our pride! "All of you! Too arrogant! Everyone in the class gets punished, fifty push-ups each for fifty people!" Instructor Xu trembled with rage; he had never seen freshmen like these. These freshmen were far too rebellious! Completely different from the students he had led in previous years, they had an undeniable air of fearlessness! Instructor Xu had to punish them, he had to establish his authority! Otherwise, this military training couldn’t go on! "The punishment is doubled, 5000 push-ups, I’ll do them all for them." Bai Yan laughed heartily, his voice carrying a wild and unrestrained pride. "Five thousand push-ups, he’s planning to take them all on himself!" "He’s too arrogant!" "No, he’s a true man!" Everyone was stunned, the place fell eerily silent, only the continued chants of the entire Class 23! When one is punished, the whole stand up to loudly support! This is their declaration, a declaration of these students’ youth sovereignty! We are the newbies, we are exchange students, but we’re not going to be bullied by just anyone! "Fuck, this is what a real man is!" "Come on, Bai Yan!" "This instructor, he’s a fucking inhuman!" "This is a collective! I fucking want to join Class 23, too!" All around, people were boiling with excitement! Boys stood up and roared! The shouts of the students from Class 23 grew louder! Their eyes were so feverish, Bai Yan’s action of taking all the punishment upon himself was like a spark that ignited the flames of youthful rebellion in the hearts of the students! "Three hundred and fifty-six!" "Three hundred and fifty-seven!" "Three hundred and fifty-eight!" The flames were blazing in the chests of every freshman in Class 23! We are one collective! Bai Yan is our pride! If he can stand up, so can we! Shout it out! Yell it out! Let our voices echo across the field! Don’t be afraid of anything, because we have Bai Yan!
