Chapter 3645: Surpa.s.s
Editor: Henyee Translations
Jiang Yang, who was carrying a log, suddenly narrowed his eyes. Why did he listen to Ye Jian’s arrangements? Because Ye Jian had more experience… than them?
That wasn’t right!
During the Spring Festival, Ye Jian hadn’t officially entered the second semester of her second year. Where did her experience come from?
The third and fourth-year students trusted her so much. For some reason, they trusted her. Just like when they were discussing their strategy for carrying the logs just now, their gazes first landed on Ye Jian. They waited for her to speak.
At that time, Ye Jian lowered her head in embarra.s.sment.
Li Xiang suddenly had the urge to have a good chat with Ye Jian. Suddenly, he heard s.h.i.+ Lu’s voice. “Li Xiang, it’s time to speed up!”
Li Xiang was distracted for a moment. Fortunately, the students reminded him. Li Xiang suddenly came back to his senses. Before he could think, he had already started running along with his comrades.
Ye Jian was leading Tian Qin. Although there was a difference in stamina, with Ye Jian and the others around, Tian Qin could grit her teeth and persevere no matter how tired she was.
“Don’t be anxious. Maintain your breathing. Don’t increase your footsteps. Maintain your current pace. Control your breathing and run with us.”
Ye Jian took care of Tian Qin carefully. This wasn’t an individual compet.i.tion but a team compet.i.tion. Ensuring the team was doing well would be more beneficial to score points. If they just relied on their individual run, the team’s score would be quite low. Even if their individual score was high, it couldn’t make up for it.
That was because the rules of the compet.i.tion emphasized teamwork.
Tian Qin tightened her grip and nodded. She couldn’t run and speak smoothly like Ye Jian. She could only make a sound to show that she understood.
“All the best, Tian Qin.”
Standing on her other side were the students from the Air Force Academy. Ye Jian purposely made this arrangement because she hoped that the students from the Air Force Academy could encourage Tian Qin.
The Chinese team was not the fastest. Hence, after running for 500 meters, they were only in the middle. The most familiar people in front of them were the students from South Korea and j.a.pan.
When the students from the two countries ran, they exerted their strength and rushed in front of the students from the Asian countries.
But now, China was speeding up. The Asian students in front were their targets.
The students were distributed according to the continents—Asia, North America, and Europe. There were only three continents partic.i.p.ating. The three made up their own categories. No wonder j.a.pan and South Korea wanted to surpa.s.s the Chinese students.
The students from North America gave the students from Canada and Mexico a lot of pressure. As a result, the students from these two countries exhausted their stamina in the first 1,500 meters.
There were many countries in Europe partic.i.p.ating in the compet.i.tion. There was Russia, which was the strongest in Eastern Europe, followed by England and France. The strength of the students from these countries was similar. However, due to tactical reasons, the students from the Frunze Military Academy led the French students to the front of the other countries in Western Europe.
Soon, they heard a commotion from the students from the Asian countries. Some of the students tilted their bodies slightly to look while still carrying the logs. They saw two groups of students suddenly exceeding dozens of students.
