Chapter 436: Gu Qingjiu, Actual Combat 1

It was about to start.

Feng Yumeng became more nervous.

If it was a structured practice, she would either be on the offense or defense.

But this was free-style, so she would only be hit.

For fighting, there wasn’t any point system. However, in order to prevent accidents from happening, holding down the opponent for three seconds would be considered a victory.

Feng Yumeng was the kind that others would hold down on the ground.

After a short rest, the first group would start.

The dueling session was 2 vs 2.

One person would fight with their opponent from the other team before changing people.

And that meant both Gu Qingjiu and Feng Yumeng had to duel.

Since there were more males in the military school, these practices usually meant selection would be segregated by gender.

And because the female population was less, girls from the same specialization would have to fight.

While for the guys, they would have an inter-cla.s.s duel session.

Gu Qingjiu’s opponents were a pair of sisters from Cla.s.s A.

And what a pair of sisters! Not only did they get into the same specialization, they even managed to get into the same group.

How strange.

But Gu Qingjiu didn’t care about that.

The moment the duels started, Feng Yumeng visibly looked nervous while Gu Qingjiu focused on a.n.a.lyzing these students’ moves and fighting instincts.

She already had her observations from before. These students were probably not as strong as the soldiers from the army but that was back when she was just a new recruit and she hadn’t yet fought with veterans.

So everyone’s skills were probably around the same level.

She looked for a while before her expression relaxed a little.

If she said that she had complete confidence, wouldn’t that be too arrogant?

But she had strong innate instincts for dueling, so she should do fine at these.

After a few groups finished, the instructor called for them.

“Next group, Cla.s.s A’s Long Xiaowen and Long Xiaohe against Cla.s.s C’s Gu Qingjiu and Feng Yumeng.”

At the instructor’s call, Feng Yumeng’s fingers curled tightly.

Long Xiaowen and Long Xiaohe were from the same cla.s.s as Feng Yumeng. Seeing how nervous Feng Yumeng was, they couldn’t help but chuckle. “Yumeng, rest a.s.sured. No matter who fights against you, we will use less strength so it wouldn’t hurt as bad.”

They all knew that Feng Yumeng was afraid of pain.

The moment those words were out, people around them laughed.

These people held no ill intentions and simply found it funny.

Feng Yumeng could only laugh awkwardly in return.

They spoke of the truth after all.

The instructor looked at the name list before he continued, “Long Xiaowen against Feng Yumeng and Long Xiaohe against Gu Qingjiu. I will give you three minutes to prepare.”

“As expected, I would go first!”

Feng Yumeng felt despair.

Who dueled first was determined by the order in which the instructor spoke. Since he called Feng Yumeng first, she would have to go first.

“But that’s a relief since Long Xiaowen’s skills are not as good as her younger sister’s.”

Feng Yumeng forced herself to relax, but she looked at Gu Qingjiu uneasily. “Qingjiu, Long Xiaohe is really strong.”

Long Xiaowen was the older one, but in terms of combat skills, Long Xiaohe was the stronger one.

Feng Yumeng was worried about Gu Qingjiu because she had only attended the theory lessons for dueling. This meant that this would be her first live practice.

Before she dueled, no one knew how Gu Qingjiu would fare.

If Feng Yumeng lost and Gu Qingjiu lost as well, it would be considered as a loss for the team.

For the team to lose, they would lose a point in the lesson.

And the total points was only twelve!
