Chapter 9 Mysterious Man
Chapter 9 Mysterious Man
The day of the military training performance quietly arrived. The sun generously shone its light, and the sky was a clear, cloudless blue.
Today, due to the joint performance arrangements, after a lottery between No. 39 Middle School and Experimental Middle School, the final venue was chosen to be Experimental Middle School.
As Jiang Songchu walked through the bustling crowd on the campus of the Experimental Middle School, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of the beautiful artificial lake.
This artificial lake is far superior to the small ponds in ancient mansions. The lake surface is sparkling, large carp swim leisurely, and small bridges, artificial hills, and willow trees on the lakeside complement each other.
Jiang Songchu couldn't help but marvel at the sophistication and wonder of modern infrastructure technology.
Shortly after arriving at the playground, the principals and chief instructors of both schools delivered inspiring speeches.
Ning An was getting sleepy listening to this and secretly said to Jiang Songchu standing next to her, "If this speech could be replaced with ice cream, I could definitely eat ten in one go!"
Ning An's words successfully made Jiang Songchu laugh.
Next, it was the turn of the freshman representatives to speak.
The freshman representative of No. 39 Middle School is none other than Qin Weiwei, a seemingly aloof young lady!
This news caused quite a stir in the dormitory when it first came out. It turned out that she was not only a cold and beautiful woman, but also a hidden academic genius.
The representative from Experimental High School is Liu Qingshan, the top student from Haidong mentioned by Yang Ziyi.
Today, Jiang Songchu was finally able to see its true appearance.
Liu Qingshan has a beautiful face, long hair, and a tall figure. Although she is wearing a military training uniform, she still exudes a gentle and refined temperament, which is refreshing.
Liu Qingshan's radiance and Qin Weiwei's aloofness complemented each other, creating a beautiful scene on stage and sparking much discussion among the boys in the audience.
After the two student representatives finished their speeches, the head instructors of Experimental Middle School and No. 39 Middle School jointly announced the official start of the performance.
The stirring "Athletes' March" then began, instantly filling the playground with energy and passion.
Before the obstacle course even started, Jiang Songchu took a break and involuntarily turned his gaze toward the podium.
To her surprise, she found a tall man there, wearing a black mask and a black hat.
He has an upright posture, not the currently popular thin physique, but gives people a sense of strength and power.
He stood quietly behind the two chief instructors, occasionally bowing his head to talk to them, mysterious and attracting attention.
However, Jiang Songchu didn't pay much attention to it and instead focused his attention on the upcoming match.
As time went by, the performances by both schools came to a successful conclusion, and the obstacle course race officially began.
The head instructor's booming voice echoed across the playground: "Next, the friendly obstacle course between Experimental Middle School and No. 39 Middle School is about to begin!"
"The competition consists of three rounds. In the first two rounds, the top three players from each school will be determined. In the third round, the top three players from each school will compete to determine the final winner!"
Cheers erupted from the crowd as students cheered for their favorite teams.
"Keep going, Chu Chu! We're rooting for you!"
"Go, go! Class 3 of Grade 11 will win!"
The students in the dormitory and classmates cheered for Jiang Songchu and others.
Jiang Songchu and two male classmates expressed their gratitude for everyone's support.
One of the dark-skinned boys, named Cheng Yuan, winked at Jiang Songchu and said with a smile, "Sister Chu, our class is counting on you!"
Another tall and burly classmate, Yao Yijiang, chuckled and said, "Hehe, with Sister Chu in charge, I'm invincible! First place is a piece of cake!"
In fact, during training, Cheng Yuan and Yao Yijiang both secretly thought that Jiang Songchu, a girl who looked beautiful but was too delicate, was definitely no match for them.
Cheng Yuan has loved track and field since he was a child. If it weren't for his good academic performance, he would have been sent to a sports school.
Yao Yijiang is no less impressive. His father is a Muay Thai practitioner, so he has been learning Muay Thai since childhood and has undergone a lot of physical training.
The two naive fifteen- or sixteen-year-old boys thought to themselves that although Jiang Songchu's martial arts performance that day was very impressive, it was just a performance, and he could definitely do it with some dancing.
The results were a huge surprise to them. Jiang Songchu always finished the best in every training session, while the two of them couldn't keep up with her training pace at all. Every time they tried running, she left them far behind.
This surprised and impressed them, and they began to willingly call her "Sister Chu".
Jiang Songchu understood that she was faster than them because she had studied martial arts since childhood and possessed internal strength and lightness skills.
Even without using these special abilities, she would still be much faster than them.
After all, since arriving at the border at the age of three, Jiang Songchu has never stopped practicing martial arts, regardless of the cold wind and rain or the scorching sun.
The first round was a competition between Experimental Middle School students, and Jiang Songchu was surprised to find that Liu Qingshan was also participating.
She immediately became interested and watched the game with great concentration.
She and a girl from the next class participated in the competition together in class 39.
In contrast, Liu Qingshan was the only one in the Experimental Middle School. Standing at the starting line, her bright and eye-catching figure could be seen at a glance.
As the whistle fell, Jiang Songchu saw Liu Qingshan run very lightly, and with her agile physique, she quickly completed all the obstacle courses and won first place in the Experimental Middle School without any suspense.
A burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted on the field, and Jiang Songchu also looked at her with new respect.
At this moment, she understood even more the meaning of what Yang Ziyi meant when she said that "Liu Qingshan not only has excellent academic performance, but also has won awards for all kinds of talents since she was a child."
