Max-level burst damage at the start, the British Empire arrives!

Sun Ke's first morning at the Kearney training ground was a perfect experience.

After training for an hour, a tall, bald man walked over.

Sun Ke knows this guy; he's assistant coach Steve Boulder.

Boulder smiled and said, "Hi, the boss had something to do this morning, so he asked me to come and tell you."

"I'll train with you this morning, but the season's only just started, so let's take it easy, haha!"

So for the next hour, Boulder showed Sun Ke what it meant to take it easy.

The two arrived at the indoor training room, where Sun Ke saw five pillars, each with a light above it.

Boulder chuckled and said, "Kid, come on in, let's play a little game."

"After I turn on the machine, you should run according to the instructions on the indicator lights."

"Then I'll pass the ball to you from time to time. You have to stop the ball, find a pillar with a light on, and pass the ball to the pillar."

Let's begin!

Once he confirmed that Sun Ke understood the training requirements, Boulder immediately began training.

The moment the green light turned on, Sun Ke immediately began to accelerate.

Sun Ke accelerated between pillars that were only ten meters apart, and the green lights turned on in an unpredictable order and for a very short time.

If there is even the slightest delay, the green light will immediately turn red, and a warning sound will be heard.

After several accelerations, Sun Ke felt that he had lost his sense of direction.

"Catch the ball!"

"Looking for a green light!"

Sun Ke received the ball and quickly looked for the green light.

But when he saw the green light and stepped out, the green light had already turned red.

"Kid, couldn't you have found the green light before you stopped the ball?"

"You only have three seconds from receiving the ball to passing it; you're too slow!"

"Did you know what? Our requirement is to get the ball to the opponent's goal in seven to eight seconds!"

"Are you really going to waste five seconds all by yourself?"

"Get running!"

......

"Kid, take a 5-minute break!"

Fifteen minutes later, Boulder looked at Sun Ke, whose face was flushed, and said with a smile.

Sun Ke placed her hands on her thighs and kept panting heavily.

In just fifteen minutes, he lost count of how many short sprints he made.

He was sprinting back and forth around the five pillars, and now he felt dizzy.

The rest time passed quickly, and Sun Ke continued to focus on training.

Although there was enough time to adjust between training sessions, Sun Ke was still out of breath during high-frequency short sprints.

An hour later, the moment Boulder announced the end of training, Sun Ke collapsed to the ground.

"Haha, how does it feel?"

Boulder asked with a smile.

Sun Ke forced a smile and replied, "Time flies like a wild donkey..."

Upon hearing Sun Ke's answer, Boulder paused for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Haha, that's a great description!"

Boulder glanced at his watch and said, "We still have some time, let's play a little game."

After the other party finished speaking, they brought out another piece of equipment, which looked a bit like the device used to launch flying saucers in a skeet shooting competition.

"These little guys will launch miniature soccer balls randomly; your task is to anticipate their movements and intercept them!"

"You must extricate them immediately; ideally, you could pass the ball to a fixed location!"

Let's begin!

For the next ten minutes, Sun Ke gritted his teeth and kept intercepting the footballs launched by the machine.

Even though Sun Ke's physical strength was nearing its limit, he was still able to predict the direction of the ball without missing a single one and make interceptions.

Boulder looked approving and kept making notes on the form.

"Good job. Training session is over. Go take a shower and come to the restaurant with me."

Ten minutes later, seeing Sun Ke completely soaked, Boulder announced the end of training.

Seeing Boulder's smug look, Sun Ke asked somewhat resentfully, "Is that all?"

Boulder paused for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Haha, youth is wonderful!"

"Kid, you've got guts!"

"If the boss hadn't told you not to push yourself too hard during the first training session, you would never have said something like that!"

"Go home and get a good nap after lunch, then we'll see you this afternoon, hahaha!"

Hearing Boulder's unrestrained laughter, Sun Ke suddenly felt that he would have to pay a huge price for his pride.

Back in the locker room, Sun Ke took a long, hot shower.

Whether it was psychological or something else, Sun Ke felt that showering at Arsenal was more enjoyable than at Leyton Orient.

As Sun Ke stepped out of the shower room, she ran into a staff member.

The staff member changed Sun Ke into a brand new team uniform and then took away his dirty clothes with a smile.

Hey!

This is truly star-level treatment.

Apart from the coaching staff and team doctor, Leyton Orient has no other staff members.

Since Sun Ke transmigrated, she has always brought her dirty clothes home, washed them clean, and then brought them back.

Sometimes training is so tiring that we have to train in dirty clothes.

Coming to Arsenal definitely means a change of pace.

On the way to the restaurant, Boulder gave a brief introduction to the Kearney training base.

In addition to the coaching staff and players, the first team also has ten scouts and eight medical staff members.

The reserve team and the U18 team are each equipped with a coaching staff and a medical team.

The training base also has 2 gardeners, 10 staff members, 4 nutritionists, and 3 building managers.

What kind of god-tier configuration is this?!

Sun has finally seen something new.

The training base has a dedicated press building at its entrance, which includes 10 interview rooms and a press hall that can accommodate 100 media personnel.

Upon entering the restaurant, Sun Ke saw 62-year-old Wenger.

At this moment, Sun Ke used all his strength to restrain his excitement.

Having lived two lives, I finally got to see the professor's "sound, appearance, and smile" for the first time.

Sun Ke immediately extended his right hand, and the old man gave him a warm hug.

Despite being 62 years old, the old man still has a very upright posture.

Sun Ke, who is 1.85 meters tall, needs to tilt her head slightly to make eye contact with the old man at close range.

"I heard from Jonathan that you've been training all summer, and I really like the way you approach football."

After the two sat down, Wenger started the conversation.

Sun Ke expressed his hope to catch up with the team's pace through training.

Wenger nodded: "Don't worry, the club paid £700 million for you, not to spite Tottenham."

"I have a clear development plan for you, and you will definitely make rapid progress during your years at Arsenal."

"You may not get many opportunities to play at the beginning, but you will gradually get more chances."

"My plan is to give you a starting position in both cup competitions. If you do well in the Champions League group stage, I will also give you a starting opportunity."

"I've noticed that all your training is done with the ball, which is excellent!"

"All training for professional players should revolve around football."

"Child, do you have any questions?"

Sun Ke thought for a moment and asked, "Boss, where do you plan to position me?"

"I'd also like to hear your opinion of me."

Wenger smiled and said, "These two questions can actually be answered together."

"In my opinion, your advantage lies in your anticipation ability on defense, which is far superior to that of players of the same age. This ability allows you to make excellent interceptions."

"Your frontal defense is good, but most of the time your vision is limited to what you can see in front of you."

"I also won't overlook your excellent physical fitness and outstanding long-range shooting ability."

"Based on Steve's feedback, you have good short-range passing and ball control skills, but you always tend to pass the ball to teammates who are in your line of sight when you pass it."

"My initial positioning for you is as an organizing defensive midfielder. If you show potential in other areas, I will make corresponding adjustments."

A professor is a professor; he's generous with praise when complimenting people, but he goes on and on when pointing out their shortcomings.

Without the attribute panel, Sun Ke would probably have to think for a while to understand Wenger's meaning.

Seeing that Sun Ke had accepted his rating, Wenger smiled and said, "Sun Ke, I also want to ask you a few questions."

Sun Ke readily agreed, and the old man immediately asked, "At times, the intensity of your combat abilities far exceeds your physical capabilities. I'd like to know how you manage to do that?"

What's coming will come sooner or later. Sun Ke knew that by using the star player trial card, he would eventually have to face similar problems.

He pretended to think and said, "Sometimes I fight back with the thought of fighting to the death."

"I kept telling myself that if I failed this time, I would never have another chance."

Wenger nodded approvingly: "You've shown Premier League-level dribbling ability in two games, but we haven't seen it in other matches. Are you able to execute those technical moves normally in training?"

Sun Ke shook his head: "I think that was the physical ability that burst forth when facing a desperate situation. When I watched the game video, I was shocked myself."

Wenger nodded thoughtfully, and Sun Ke noticed a fleeting, almost imperceptible disappointment in the old man's eyes.

They were probably feeling the pinch of losing seven million pounds.

Sun Ke said with a smile, "I believe that as long as I have performed those movements before, it means I have the potential to complete them. As long as I focus on training, I have the opportunity to further master those movements."

Wenger nodded, then changed the subject, but kept bringing up football in every sentence.

Although Sun Ke was the only one training today, the restaurant still prepared a player meal for him.

Macaroni, steamed fish, boiled chicken breast, raw vegetables, and yogurt.

Wenger also asked Sun Ke for his opinion on lunch, to which Sun Ke replied with a faint smile, "It was tasteless, but it served an important purpose."

The old man nodded: "Does your recipe include pork?"

Sun Ke shook his head: "Boss, I haven't eaten pork in a long time."

"If you always eat pork, you'll play football like a pig!"

This is the professor's "wise saying".

After saying that, they both burst into laughter.
