The aloof military doctor arrives at the unit, and the tough guy can't sit still.

During evening training, Xia Qiuran and Bai Yunyun arrived at the assembly point of Class One on time.

Today's training focuses on combat skills. After assembling, everyone sat on the grass and listened to squad leader Wei Guangming explain the key points of the movements from a standing position.

"Dr. Bai, here you go."

"What is this? It looks filthy. I don't want it."

"These are knee pads. Wear them on your knees, otherwise you'll fall and hurt yourself."

Xia Qiuran then noticed that the deputy squad leader, Xu Yong, was quietly handing Bai Yunyun a pair of knee pads, his eyes practically glued to her.

At first, Bai Yunyun was unwilling to tie it on, but Xu Yong whispered something to her, and Bai Yunyun reluctantly tied it to her leg.

"Dr. Xia, I also have knee braces. I'll bring them to you tomorrow too," Zhang Xiaoliang said to Xia Qiuran from behind.

"No way, I can take a fall." Xia Qiuran immediately refused without even thinking.

Zhang Xiaoliang was speechless for a moment and could only choose to remain silent.

"Did everyone remember the key points I mentioned?" Wei Guangming shouted from the front.

The whole class immediately responded in unison, "We've got it!"

Wei Guangming: "Alright, now let's have our class's vice squad leader give us a practical demonstration. He's one of the best in the whole company when it comes to this."

Amidst applause, Xu Yong strode forward.

"Zhang Xiaoliang, come and assist the vice class monitor," Wei Guangming called out again.

"what?"

Zhang Xiaoliang was clearly taken aback. If he were to fight Xu Yong with his current skill level, wouldn't he just be cannon fodder? But since the squad leader had called his name, he couldn't refuse.

"Yes."

So I gritted my teeth and went up.

On an open space in the training ground.

The two men stood with their legs staggered, maintaining a distance between them in a fighting stance. Zhang Xiaoliang raised his fists to protect his chin, while Xu Yong simply stared at Zhang Xiaoliang without making any move.

Zhang Xiaoliang then wanted to take advantage of the moment before Xu Yong raised his hand to launch an attack and seize the initiative, so he threw his right fist directly at Xu Yong.

Just as the fist was about to hit Xu Yong's face, Xu Yong easily dodged it with a swift movement. Taking advantage of Zhang Xiaoliang's punch, Xu Yong stepped close, grabbed Zhang Xiaoliang's wrist with one hand, and braced his other elbow against Zhang Xiaoliang's waist.

With a single move, he knocked Zhang Xiaoliang to the ground.

"Wow, that's really amazing."

Upon seeing this, Bai Yunyun immediately began clapping.

In her eyes, Zhang Xiaoliang liked Xia Qiuran, so they were enemies. Now that Xu Yong, who liked her, had beaten Zhang Xiaoliang, it was undoubtedly a victory for her.

Seeing how happy Bai Yunyun was for his victory, Xu Yong felt a surge of joy and realized that his fighting strength was even greater than usual.

"Did everyone see the moves just now? Fighting doesn't rely on brute force; it's about using and deflecting the opponent's force. You have to be quick and accurate in your attacks, and close-quarters combat is of utmost importance," Wei Guangming continued to explain.

"Zhang Xiaoliang, are you alright?" After saying that, she looked at Zhang Xiaoliang, who had just stood up.

"I'm fine, squad leader." Zhang Xiaoliang rubbed his side and quickly stood up straight.

"Hmm, your fighting skills need improvement. Today is a good opportunity, so cherish it." Wei Guangming said, then stepped aside to allow the two to spar again.

"Yes."

After responding, Zhang Xiaoliang adopted a defensive stance again. This time, he was smarter and did not attack first, but waited for Xu Yong to hit him.

Xu Yong didn't waste any time. He seized the opportunity to feint a punch, drawing Zhang Xiaoliang's hand to block. He quickly stepped around to his side, grabbed Zhang's arm with his hand, and then pinned Zhang's calf with his foot. With a little force, he threw Zhang Xiaoliang to the ground.

There was another solid "bang".

This time, Zhang Xiaoliang tried to get up twice, but couldn't.

Seeing that Zhang Xiaoliang was not in good condition, Xia Qiuran was afraid that he might be in danger and quickly got up to check on him.

"Are you alright, Comrade Zhang?"

After a long while, Zhang Xiaoliang finally coughed and his fingers moved slowly.

"Cough, cough, I'm fine, Dr. Xia."

When Wei Guangming saw that Xia Qiuran had stepped out of line without his permission, his face immediately darkened.

"Xia Qiuran, now that you're training in my class, you're a member of my class. Get back in line immediately. If you step out of line without permission again, you'll be severely punished." He glared at Xia Qiuran and reprimanded her.

"Squad leader, Zhang Xiaoliang is showing mild signs of unconsciousness; he can't fight anymore."

Xia Qiuran gave Zhang Xiaoliang a quick check-up. He had fallen quite badly, and if this continued, he would definitely suffer internal injuries.

"I'll say it again, return to the team." Wei Guangming didn't answer, his eyes narrowed, his face clearly showing anger.

"I'm fine, Dr. Xia, you should go home now."

Zhang Xiaoliang had also regained most of his consciousness and spoke to Xia Qiuran.

Xia Qiuran glanced at Zhang Xiaoliang and, seeing that he could still stand up, immediately returned to the group. After all, she was just a soldier in the first squad, and obeying orders was her duty.

Wei Guangming then gave a soft hum, turning his face towards the team members.

"The barracks are not a place for you to flirt. Here, there is only victory and defeat. If you can't change your cowardly behavior, you'd better go home. I don't keep idle people here."

While speaking, he would glance at Xia Qiuran and Zhang Xiaoliang intentionally or unintentionally, clearly targeting the two of them.

After saying that, he turned to look at Zhang Xiaoliang, his words full of disdain: "Zhang Xiaoliang, if you just say one sentence that you admit defeat, that you're trash, not even worth a fart from Xu Yong, you can leave now."

As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of laughter erupted in the work group, and all eyes turned to Zhang Xiaoliang, as if they were waiting to see him make a fool of himself.

Zhang Xiaoliang's face flushed red, and his hands clenched into fists. He didn't want to admit that he was a good-for-nothing, but he couldn't beat Xu Yong.

"Hmph, you were knocked down in one move and still refuse to admit you're trash. I'm afraid even I, a woman, am stronger than you." Bai Yunyun rolled her eyes at Zhang Xiaoliang.

She had already established relationships with everyone on her second day here, and Xu Yong, being the pragmatic type, readily agreed to join her side after learning about her and Xia Qiuran's family backgrounds.

Xu Yong had been watching from the sidelines for a long time before finally stepping forward to speak.

"Everyone, stop talking. Who doesn't have their own weaknesses?"

"Zhang Xiaoliang, how about this, you crawl through me and I promise I'll never hit you again." After saying that, he slowly spread his legs, his eyes slightly narrowed, and the corners of his mouth curled up, as if he were looking at a puppy that had been teased.

"Hahaha…"

The group immediately erupted in even more energetic and joyful laughter than before.

Xia Qiuran, who had been listening to this, couldn't hold back any longer.

"Squad leader, Zhang Xiaoliang's combat skills are substandard, but he can receive extra training. What you're saying is an insult to his character."

Even during military training, you can't trample on other people's dignity like this.

If this continues, it could easily lead to mental health issues, and she simply cannot condone this training method.

"Xia Qiuran, step forward and stand at attention under the sun for one hour."

This time, Wei Guangming did not hesitate at all and said sternly.
