After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Formal training begins in Chapter 27; registration is now open.

After finishing breakfast and leaving the cafeteria, it wasn't yet time for the morning training to begin.

This short break also allows the guests to go back to their dormitories to tidy up and aids digestion, so it's a win-win situation.

On the way back to the dormitory, Xi Ming, who was originally walking at the back, suddenly quickened his pace to catch up with Jiang Hanying in front of him and whispered "thank you".

Without stopping, he rushed into the stairwell.

Although the sound was very low, everyone was walking together and had their microphones on, so the other guests naturally heard it as well.

Watching Xi Ming thank her and run away shyly, and then looking at Jiang Hanying who had a calm but actually bewildered expression, they both had a few more thoughts in their hearts.

Back in the dormitory, by the time it took to eat breakfast, Wenwei and all her belongings were gone, and the innermost bed was empty again. I wonder if any new guests will move in later.

Yuan Chaoyu secretly hoped that another newcomer would join the team.

Special note: Must be a relatively normal newcomer.

If it's someone like Jiang Hanying, whose next move is unpredictable, or someone like Wen Wei, who disrupts the entire production team for her own selfish reasons, then forget it.

*
At 8:00 a.m. sharp, the training assembly whistle rang out on time.

Regardless of what the guests were doing at that moment, the moment they heard the assembly whistle, they all quickly got up and rushed out of the dormitory towards the playground.

The viewers in the live stream were delighted to see them running so fast.

[It feels like they're already doing quite well after only one day of training.]

Indeed, the military camp is the best place to train people.

The instructor has finally reappeared!

[This shot is great! Standing straight in the morning sun, he looks incredibly handsome!]

To use an old saying, it's well-proportioned and has a good figure.

I used to think these celebrities always looked pretty good, no matter how they walked, sat, or lay down, but now compared to the drill instructors, they all still have a lot to learn!

[I have a suggestion: celebrities don't need to spend a fortune on image management courses; they should all come for a period of military training. I guarantee they'll all come out with straight backs and looking energetic.]

[The prerequisite is being able to endure the hardships of training!]

As the audience discussed the celebrities' image management, the instructor began announcing today's training content.

"Today's training will be conducted in the adjacent equipment area. The five exercises are push-ups and sit-ups, duck walks and squats, and pull-ups. The five exercises will be performed alternately. You will pass if you can complete one set of each exercise without interruption. After passing, you can rest here. You can also go back to your dormitory to lie down if you want."

[Yo-ho, fresh training is here!]

[Wow, five events right away! The instructor is really generous.]

Are the guests happy right now?

You can tell by Yao Ge's forced, bitter smile.

Push-ups, Yao Ge's nightmare.

[I feel like the other items aren't very friendly to overweight people either. Let's cheer for Yao Ge first!]

[Um, does anyone know exactly how many repetitions the instructor meant for completing a set?]

There are probably around ten.

That's alright. Doing ten push-ups and sit-ups shouldn't be too difficult.

[And once it's finished, you can go back to the dorm and relax! A great balance between work and rest. Thumbs up for the instructor's training plan!]

[Hehe, I'll just smile and say nothing.]

[This "hehe" feels a bit ominous to me?]

The guests couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they heard the last sentence that they could rest after finishing.

Although there will be fewer shots of them lying in bed back in the dorm, it's really comfortable to lie flat, and it's an irresistible temptation for them right now!
"Now, all hands, aim at the equipment area, march in unison!"

Just as the guests were heading to the equipment area with the instructors, the registration form, which the production team had hastily prepared after the meeting, was quietly put online and placed in the upper right corner of the live broadcast room.

Before the staff could even post a reminder on the official account, sharp-eyed viewers noticed it.

[What... is this a registration link?] [Has Old Wang finally seen our plea?]

What are you waiting for? Hurry up and fill it out!

I ordered, but was immediately kicked out. So sad!

[Pfft, let's try again in a place with a stronger signal.]

Haha, I got in! I have to say, the production team was incredibly fast this time. I'm going to fill out the form now.

[It's so crowded! It's crashed so many times! Please, if you're not really interested in participating and just want to join in the fun, please leave!]

[Haha, the guy who couldn't squeeze in is getting impatient!]

Audience members eagerly filled out registration forms, while guests had already arrived at the equipment area.

Li Chengxiao: "Let's warm up by jogging a lap around the equipment area first."

There's also a small playground in the equipment area, not as big as the big playground next door. It only took the guests about three minutes to run a lap, and they were only slightly sweaty.

"Now let's officially begin practicing the first exercise, push-ups. I'll demonstrate first."

As Li Chengxiao spoke, he bent down decisively, supporting himself on the ground with his palms and arms. He explained and demonstrated at the same time, "Your body should be in a straight line. It is not advisable to slouch, bend your waist, or hunch your back. Place your hands on the sides of your chest muscles, and keep your forearms perpendicular to the ground. Inhale when you press down and exhale when you stand up."

The guests listened attentively and watched the instructions carefully, so as not to make mistakes when it was their turn to do it.

The viewers in the live stream were simply enjoying the show.

【Hehehehe~】

[Those muscles under the training uniform bulge slightly with every exertion, yet they're not exaggerated at all~]

[And the slightly bulging blue veins on the back of his hands~]

[I just noticed that the instructor's fingers are so long, I really want to intertwine them!]

[This close-up shot deserves a bonus for the cameraman, two bonuses!]

[So tempting, so incredibly tempting!]

[Those muscular hunks at the gym suddenly don't seem so appealing anymore!]

Male audience member: [Ha, women!]

Never admit that you feel envious or jealous!
After doing ten push-ups, Li Chengxiao easily stood up and, with a calm expression, gave the order: "Now, everyone, spread your arms out, two arm's lengths apart, and get ready to bend over!"

Once the guests are ready, "One set of thirty push-ups, count for yourselves, begin!"

When Gao Juyao heard the thirty people following behind him, he didn't even hear what they were saying before his arms went weak and he collapsed to the ground!

"No, no, isn't a group of ten?"

Li Chengxiao looked down at him and asked, "Who told you that a set of push-ups is ten?"

Gao Juyao: "I... I guessed."

"stand up!"

The live stream chat exploded.

[Who said a group consists of ten? Come out here!]

[I'm just guessing, so I'm only raising my hand timidly.]

I finally understand what that "hehe" sound meant earlier.

[This is mocking our ignorance of the standards for instructors!]

[Then what about the other projects...? Can the guests really complete all five projects without interruption?]

Those dorm beds are simply unattainable!

[The instructors have such sophisticated tactics!]

I've only filled out half the application form, and now I'm hesitating whether to continue filling it out...
