Military Academy: Special Forces System - Chapter 28

Hearing the chief instructor’s words, the thunderous applause suddenly stopped.

For a moment, there was complete silence.

For these freshmen, this evaluation was very important.

The dormitory with the highest score would only receive a banner. Although there was no substantive reward, all the freshmen valued honor. Everyone in the middle of the square stood still.

But to any soldier, this banner signified the beginning of glory!

To the freshmen, it was even more glorious!

At this moment, the chief instructor continued, “Before the announcement, I would like to specially praise Dormitory 431!”

Everyone held their breaths and looked at those in Dormitory 431. At this moment, a few people’s faces were brimming with joy.

Although they didn’t dare to speak loudly, these people whispered, “Haha, as expected, our neatly folded quilts and the cleanliness of the floor are not something they can compare to.”

At this moment, the others were disappointed.

After all, during this period of time, everyone had been working hard!

At this moment, Zhao Rui saw Chi Heng beside him and muttered in disbelief, “That shouldn’t be the case?”

“If we lose in other aspects, with me as a burden, I have nothing to say. But for internal affairs, we shouldn’t lose!”

Actually, Zhao Rui didn’t feel too disappointed in his heart.

He did feel a little frustrated that he didn’t get the banner, but more importantly, he had to respect his opponent.

He even wanted to personally visit Dormitory 431 after the evaluation to see what they had done well. Then, he would study and continue to work hard!

Zhao Rui had this determination and confidence.

But at this moment, Chi Heng’s complaints and doubts were getting louder and louder.

Zhao Rui quickly poked him with his arm, indicating that he should not speak and be careful of being criticized.

It should be known that when any instructor spoke, the most basic thing for the soldiers to do was to keep quiet.

Chief Instructor Kronin continued to speak on stage. The freshmen seemed to be unable to suppress their inner thoughts and began to whisper incessantly.

Zhao Rui poked Chi Heng with his elbow. Although he did not say anything, there was clearly a trace of disappointment on his face.

At this moment, the chief instructor cleared his throat and continued, “Alright, everyone stop talking and listen to what I have to say.”

“After I walked through the dorm of 431, I felt that the younger generation was really formidable.”

“Even though you guys have only been in the school for a month or so, the students of 431 have done very well!”

“Whether it’s the floor, the trash can, the table, or the blanket, they have all reached the level of a veteran.”

Instantly, the roommates in Dormitory 431 applauded enthusiastically.

After all, friendship came first, and competition came second!

“But, everyone! When I walked to Dormitory 424, I was even more surprised.”

The chief instructor suddenly talked about another dorm.

“Their internal affairs are worthy of praise!”

“They have already surpassed Dormitory 431, completely beyond my expectations.”

“Here, I would like to especially praise a student, student Zhao Rui.”

Everyone’s envious gazes all turned towards Zhao Rui.

“He’s really all-rounded!”

“Is he the guy who did over a hundred push-ups on his first day and wasn’t tired at all?”

“That’s right! It’s him. He was also quite good at cross-country running!”

“There’s no way to compare. He’s simply a natural fit for a Military Academy!”

The other freshmen began to discuss animatedly.

Amidst the applause, there were voices of doubt and discussion that reverberated throughout the entire square.

The people of Dormitory 431 and their instructors were actually a little confused.

What was going on? It was clearly a matter that was already set in stone.

Why did they suddenly start praising Dormitory 424? What about Dormitory 431?

In order to get this banner, the class monitor and roommates had put in a lot of effort during this period of time. Their instructors had worked even harder. The other freshmen seemed to be unwilling to accept it.

The chief instructor continued, “This student Zhao Rui, his internal affairs can be said to be the best among all of you. He completely conforms to our school’s internal affairs evaluation standards. Everyone can take him as an example.”

Chief Instructor Kronin was an important leader of the academy and even made outstanding contributions to the country. He was respected by everyone!

It was extremely rare to get such a leader to praise one in public. Zhao Rui was an exception.

“Chief Instructor, you must be joking with us, right?”

“No matter how amazing that Zhao Rui is, he can’t possibly be compared to a veteran, right?” The freshmen were extremely shocked!

“Whether it’s the internal affairs evaluation or the team cooperation evaluation, the one with the highest score this time is…”

The freshmen in each line carefully listened to the leader’s speech, and the entire place was silent.

“The result of this evaluation is that Dormitory 424 has been chosen to receive the Best Dormitory Award and the banner!” The chief instructor officially announced the result.

The warm applause was once again heard in the square.

Accompanied by the sound of victory music, the chief instructor deliberately amplified his voice, “The class monitor of Dormitory 424, please come up to the stage to receive the award!”

Before the chief instructor finished his words, the applause below was thunderous and filled with cheers.

Zhao Rui, Bai Xiaofei, Chi Heng, and Zhang Cheng seemed to be crying tears of joy as they hugged each other.

“Zhao Rui, quickly go up and receive the award for us,” Bai Xiaofei said anxiously.

“Yes, yes, hurry up…”

Zhao Rui adjusted his military uniform and placed his hands beside the brim of his hat to make sure that his appearance was neat.

After walking out of the formation, Zhao Rui walked onto the stage. He had the air of a soldier.

The sun was gentle, and a few white clouds floated in the blue sky. A few rays of light shone on the feathers of a few birds that flew past them, reflecting the colourful rays.

Accompanied by the victory music, Zhao Rui stood on the stage. He puffed out his chest and raised his head. He stood there unmoving as he looked straight ahead, waiting for the award presentation.

The chief instructor had a smile on his face. He was extremely cordial as he personally held the embroidered banner in Zhao Rui’s hands.

He encouraged them, “Congratulations, keep up the good work!”

Zhao Rui saluted the chief instructor and took the embroidered banner. “Thank you, Chief Instructor. Don’t worry, we will definitely work hard!”

The entire place was in an uproar. The warm applause continued, singing in the middle of the square on the campus.

Zhao Rui’s “thank you” came from the bottom of his heart.

In just over a month, they had gone through tough training. They did not know night or day. Their sweat had soaked their clothes time and time again. But now, it seemed that everything was worth it.

Their own efforts were important, but more importantly, they received recognition from the instructors. Only then did they have the right to receive the banner.

After taking a group photo with the chief instructor, each team also took a group photo.

At this moment, Zhao Rui and the others had their happiest moment in Odin Military Academy.

The evaluation ended here.

After that, they sang the military song, lined up and returned to their dormitories..
