Chapter 124 Slight Dimness
Unaware that the librarian had stamped her with good taste, Jiang Hui brought several books back to her dormitory that day, and unusually, she attended training the next day with dark circles under her eyes.

Therefore, one should not overestimate oneself. In fact, from another perspective, Instructor Mays was right to reprimand her; she often shouldn't have overestimated her abilities.

For example, last night, she saw a very interesting mecha encyclopedia and not only spent the whole night engrossed in it in her mental space, but after waking up, she still couldn't help but stay up all night reading it, and then karma struck.

Perhaps due to the combined mental and physical exhaustion from staying up all night, her physical strength had declined twice as much as it had in the present day, and she was already struggling to keep going by noon. Her head felt heavy, her legs felt weak, and a feeling of frustration was stuck in her chest, making a whooshing sound like a broken fan.

At this moment, Jiang Hui was filled with regret, and couldn't help but blame herself for getting carried away and making such a foolish decision to stay up all night during military training. Was she afraid she wouldn't be able to stay up during training?
She desperately tried to ignore the disapproving glances from Instructor Stark, and kept telling herself it was almost noon. She just needed to eat something and rest; she absolutely couldn't faint on the spot.

Past experience had shown that fainting wouldn't give her more rest time; instead, it would make her do double the workload the next day. So, it was definitely better not to faint. Jiang Hui kept this in mind.

Unfortunately, she probably overestimated herself. When she found the world spinning before her, her vision blurred and she couldn't see anything clearly.

When she woke up again, she saw Stark's dark face.

Someone instinctively shrank their neck.

"What are you doing? You dare to do it but not admit it? I think you did it on purpose. Who told you to stay up all night? Knowing that you had high-intensity training the next day, you still dared to stay up all night?!"

Stark could hardly believe how angry he was after hearing the diagnosis from the on-duty medical officer.

It's quite normal for students' physical fitness to fall behind during training. This happens in every class, and it's even more common in military-related majors because the training and requirements they need to undergo are much higher than others.

Students work very hard in their daily intensive training, and after such a long period of exertion, their physical fitness and stamina will inevitably suffer.

However, cases like this, where the patient is found to be sleep-deprived due to lack of energy from staying up late, are still relatively rare.

So when the diagnosis was made, even the therapist was a little speechless.

This little guy must have been working non-stop for two nights straight to reach this level of exertion. The fact that he only managed to come here today shows his good physical condition and stamina. However, such behavior is not something to be encouraged, so the therapist didn't say anything and simply went out to prepare the medication, leaving the teacher and student alone.

Jiang Hui knew she was in the wrong, and there was no point in explaining now, so she obediently admitted and apologized: "Sorry, I stayed up late reading last night."

"The therapist said you've stayed up for at least two nights in a row. I don't care why you acted so unwisely, but I hope you take responsibility for yourself, for this training, and for the class as a whole. Don't be so reckless anymore. I thought you should have grown a lot after these days of training." Stark's tone was stern, so much so that Jiang Hui didn't dare to say a word. But two nights... Didn't she just stay up all night last night? Could this kind of exhaustion be doubled? Jiang Hui realized she had vaguely found another bug in her mental space and couldn't help but feel a little sullen. But in Stark's eyes, this meant she hadn't realized her mistake yet, and he became even more unhappy.

Finally, he frowned and said coldly to Jiang Hui, "Come to the training ground after lunch. You have to run a hundred laps to finish. Remember to take your medicine."

Ah, this… running a hundred laps in one afternoon would mean running until midnight. Jiang Hui couldn’t help but groan inwardly, but she could already sense the immense anger the other person was suppressing, so she didn’t dare say anything more and could only reply with a crisp “Yes.”

I don't know if this instructor was too scary, but the on-duty therapist who hadn't come in during our conversation just came in right after.

Seeing Jiang Hui's dejected look, he comforted her with a smile, "Your class advisor is just concerned about you."

"You don't know that when you were brought here, you were pale and your mental energy was weak. I wondered what was wrong with you, but I never expected it to be caused by staying up late. You should pay more attention to this. Staying up late is not a big problem on ordinary days, but you are currently in a high-intensity training camp. Overworking yourself can easily lead to serious problems."

Jiang Hui silently reflected on her behavior, wondering if she had gotten a little too carried away. Sometimes she couldn't control herself; sometimes when she read, she would just go on and on, page after page, like typing, completely unable to stop. She instinctively felt this was a replenishment of her positive inner strength, and these past few days she had been reading continuously.

"Alright." The therapist removed the testing machine from Jiang Hui's neck and looked at the data displayed on the instrument with some surprise: "Huh? How come you're recovering so quickly? Your class advisor was worried that you wouldn't be able to keep up with the training, so he signed for a special supplement for you. It seems that you only need to drink half a bottle now."

The other party checked the data again, and looked at Jiang Hui with amazement, somewhat surprised by her extraordinary talent.

Jiang Hui seemed to understand the other party's unspoken meaning, and silently added in her heart that it wasn't because she was exceptionally talented, but because she had just taken a nap in the mental space.

The therapist then told Jiang Hui that she could choose to take half of the supplement or wait until she couldn't take it anymore. Since she was currently capable of continuing her afternoon training, she probably wouldn't need the supplement.

"But you should still eat it. Anyway, your class advisor has already signed for it for you. This little thing is really hard to get. Usually, only class advisors and instructors of military majors can sign for it. Since you got it, take it back and use it yourself. Sigh, but a hundred laps... tsk tsk, the intensity of your military major training is really high. Your class advisor is ruthless too. You'll have to finish this to run those hundred laps. You should take care of your health, little student."

Jiang Hui was extremely grateful for the medicine, and then hurriedly ran to the cafeteria to eat before continuing, so that she wouldn't be able to run 100 laps later.

But she ran too fast and didn't notice someone arriving at the infirmary right behind her. The person looked at her back, a faint gloom shrouding their eyes and brows, their expression somber.

Someone asked about the points leaderboard. I haven't forgotten about it; I'll write about it later. Let's forget about it for now.
