Chapter 11 Training
"Let's train together, Xiaodeng." Jin Dahai looked at the girl in front of him with a face full of affection. This was the savior who had saved his daughter. He had never treated her as an outsider before, and now he was even more grateful than he could express.
His wife passed away early, and he only had one daughter, Jin Xiaoyue, whom he doted on. After what happened yesterday, he listened to Jin Xiaoyue's fragmented account of the whole process and, without waiting for his daughter to speak, he erased all traces of evidence.
"Uncle won't stand on ceremony with you. Recently, there are reforms going on at the higher-ups, and you might have to add a physical fitness test." Jin Dahai's company has close cooperation with major hospitals, so they are quick to understand the policies from above. Besides, their medical warehouse is also one of the logistical reserves for the physical fitness test.
He did a lot of charity work in his early years and is a well-known patriotic entrepreneur. The country trusts him and has given him a lot of convenience. In recent years, he was even fortunate enough to participate in the research and development of the transformation, but he did not disclose it to anyone due to the principle of confidentiality.
The physical fitness test was revealed to him by an old friend. It wasn't particularly strict, but many in the upper class knew about it and started arranging it for their children. Retired soldiers are in high demand these days.
Even if Chu Deng didn't come today, he would still have to invite her to train together.
"Because it's a temporary reform, the physical fitness test score won't affect the college entrance exam results. But I can tell you, it's very important, so you and Xiaoyue both need to prepare well. You don't need to be too nervous about the college entrance exam." Jin Dahai couldn't reveal too much, and he said meaningfully.
Chu Deng was taken aback upon hearing this, then realized what Jin Dahai was all about and understood.
Looks like they're preparing to publicly reveal the superpowered individuals?
Considering the several popular TV series her parents have been watching recently, such as "The Runaway Bride of the Superpowered," "After Awakening My Superpowers, I Surrendered Myself to the Country," and "King of Superpowers," which cover both male and female genres and are being streamed online indiscriminately, as well as the globally released and heavily promoted game "Star Travel World," knowledge about superpowered individuals is gradually becoming integrated into society.
"Okay, thank you, Uncle Jin." Chu Deng said with a smile, ignoring Jin Xiaoyue's pleading eyes.
"Good, good, good." Jin Dahai praised repeatedly, "With you by my side, Xiaoyue won't be bored anymore."
"No—" Jin Xiaoyue cried out, unable to understand what riddle the two were talking about. Her father and Chu Deng each grabbed one of her arms and dragged her to the gym on the second floor of the Jin family home.
Retired soldier Yuan Qifeng was hired by the Jin family at a high salary to become their coach and bodyguard, and waited for a long time on the second floor.
"Xiaoyue, relax. There aren't many activities this afternoon. Let's warm up first." He said reassuringly as he watched Jin Xiaoyue being dragged over.
Jin Xiaoyue, who had seen through him in just one morning, stared wide-eyed upon hearing this. Earlier, when she was crying and begging Yuan Qifeng to go easy on her, this man was also smiling and counting down, but the countdown of three twos kept stopping at two and never said one.
She swore then and there that she would never trust this person again.
Her father, Jin Dahai, laughed at the time, saying, "These are just silly girls with no experience. When I was in the army, I saw them training. The instructor was lying to those new recruits, saying they only had to do three push-ups, but he kept shouting 'One, two, one, two, haha!'"
Compared to Jin Xiaoyue, who was listless and unmotivated, and Jin Dahai, who had been working in the office all year round and had no time to exercise and was almost covered in beer belly, Chu Deng's performance of not sweating at all after half a day amazed Yuan Qifeng.
Seeing that she had no difficulty with the training, Yuan Qifeng let the Jin family father and daughter rest for a while, and couldn't resist the urge to teach Chu Deng, increasing the difficulty.
Chu Deng accepted everything without hesitation, showing no fear whatsoever.
“Sure! If you need it, I can give you a recommendation spot,” Yuan Qifeng said. Although he had retired, he had a good relationship with his old friend, and if they encountered a promising talent, they could sometimes borrow each other’s recommendation spot, which was only available once a year.
These days, you need a recommendation letter from a veteran to get into a military academy. He was doing well before he retired, and his old friend's recommendation spot was in high demand. But Chu Deng really amazed him, and he couldn't help but feel a desire to take a liking to his talent.
"Alright, Lao Yuan, Xiao Deng is first in her grade at school, she has no shortage of connections." Jin Dahai laughed heartily from the side, his pride even greater than that of Chu Deng's own parents.
"Dengdeng, think it over carefully! I've been studying so hard, hoping to go to the same university as you. If you really want to go to military school, I—I—" Jin Xiaoyue handed Chu Deng a towel, her voice tinged with grievance, "It's not that I can't go!"
Jin Xiaoyue lost her mother at a young age and was closest to Chu Deng at school. She only thought that she would never be separated from Chu Deng in this life. If Chu Deng really took the military academy entrance exam, she was willing to give it a shot.
Chu Deng wiped his sweat, used the clean back of the towel to wipe Jin Xiaoyue's forehead, and then placed the towel over her head. His tone was somewhat helpless, but his eyes softened a bit. "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Jin Xiaoyue hummed twice.
"If you're not going to military school, you won't go either," Chu Deng reassured her.
If a superpower craze were to sweep across the world, it wouldn't be impossible for the Dragon Group from the game to appear in reality. There was such a superpowered organization in the post-apocalyptic world of my previous life, but due to the environment, chauvinism was rampant, and the belief that "all those below superpowered individuals are ants" prevailed. There was also a lot of infighting within it.
Chu Deng declined these offers and chose to go it alone, occasionally cooperating with some reputable teams.
Seeing that the situation didn't seem too dire, Chu Deng glanced at Jin Xiaoyue, who seemed to be deep in thought, and decided that joining an official organization was a viable option.
However, this is contingent on Jin Xiaoyue awakening her supernatural abilities.
Thinking this through, Chu Deng said goodbye to Yuan Qifeng and, with Jin Dahai's pleased look, took Jin Xiaoyue to her room.
She even grabbed a glass of milk from the refrigerator, making her seem like part of the family.
Jin Xiaoyue cheered, finally free. After entering the room, she immediately threw herself onto the soft quilt and spread out like a pancake.
Chu Deng took a sip of milk, sat on the sofa in the room, and chatted with Jin Xiaoyue idly.
When did Coach Yuan come to your house?
Jin Xiaoyue was so sleepy that she kept dozing off, but she still propped her head up and said, "I think I saw him a couple of years ago. After he retired last year, my dad hired him as his bodyguard. He doesn't come to my house very often, but my dad called him over yesterday."
She spoke with her eyes squinted as if she were sleepwalking, which made Chu Deng chuckle. She wasn't in a hurry to force her to learn the Awakening Body Technique.
"Take a nap if you're sleepy."
“No way…” Jin Xiaoyue sighed. “My dad tells me that after each training session, I should rest for half an hour and then go to the medical pod to sleep. He’ll be coming to wake me up soon.”
"How does it feel to be in the medical pod?" Chu Deng asked with interest, recalling the news reports she had seen earlier.
"The effect is pretty good, it's very relaxing, and it can even record body data. My dad said that if you use it for a long time, it can also eliminate old scars and whiten your skin. It's just a bit stuffy and troublesome. In order to recover quickly, it fills the chamber with nutrient solution. Although you can breathe in the nutrient solution, it feels a bit inhuman. After you come out, you feel a bit sticky and you have to take a shower..." Jin Xiaoyue said, seemingly thinking of Chu Deng, and added, "Oh right, after the nutrient solution is absorbed, I'm not very hungry. After lying in the medical chamber at noon today, I didn't want to eat lunch at all, hehe."
Chu Deng shook his head repeatedly at the thought of this aftereffect, saying, "It's truly terrifying."
