Chapter 278: Military Training
Chapter 278: Military Training
They all wished they could have such majestic and awe-inspiring Holy Spirit Rank beasts of their own.
Of course, for the majority of the students in the field, this was just a wild fantasy.
Li Qian, however, didn't feel much. Having seen numerous Holy Spirit Rank beasts was only one reason. Another was that he firmly believed that in the future, he would definitely possess a companion beast with Holy Spirit potential, and this future wasn't even that distant.
After all, he could already evolve Imperial Rank potential companion beasts at present, and with the existence of his golden finger, his future achievements would undoubtedly be remarkable.
The two beasts came here, took a stroll, displayed their prowess, and then flew off without a backward glance. The leaders were quite satisfied with the effect of boosting morale.
After the morale-boosting process was completed, the opening ceremony came to an end, and the formal military training phase began.
One similarity with his previous university's military training was that the instructors were also soldiers from the military. However, in this world, the soldiers had become army beastmasters.
A group of army beastmasters emerged from both sides of the podium, and they split up in an orderly manner, each heading to the front of a student squad as if they had rehearsed it.
Li Qian noticed that the instructor assigned to their squad was a young man with a flat face and slightly dark skin.
The young officer was stern and not given to much laughter, and one could tell at a glance that he was a rather serious person.
Li Qian wasn't too concerned about this. After the evolution and contract feedback from Seven Sons and Little Six, his physical abilities had far surpassed the average person, and completing the military training tasks wouldn't be a problem.
This was what Li Qian had thought, but after the military training began, he put this idea out of his mind.
After a self-introduction, the instructor named Zhou Jiahao began to solemnly state the purpose of this military training, "I know that you are all students from the Cultivation College, and combat isn't your primary responsibility."
"But no matter what major you're studying, since the day you awakened your beast taming talent and became beastmasters, combat has become an inevitable part of your lives."
"Don't think that combat is solely the companion beast's responsibility, and that beastmasters just need to stand on the sidelines, issuing commands and shouting orders."
"You must understand that beastmasters are also a very important part of combat. The upcoming training is meant to teach you how beastmasters should act in battle, how to avoid being a burden, and how to contribute positively to the battle situation."
Zhou Instructor's words immediately caught Li Qian's attention. He deeply understood this point, having experienced numerous battles. Sometimes, the beastmaster was indeed the biggest weakness in combat.
He didn't know what novel perspectives Zhou Instructor could offer, nor was he aware of any training measures to address this weakness.
Therefore, he listened with extra attention. For the next hour or so, Zhou Instructor continued to explain his reasoning and training logic.
As Li Qian listened to his viewpoints, he nodded slightly. There was some valuable information, but not much. The main emphasis was on the importance of physical fitness.
Of course, one point did gain Li Qian's approval, and he considered it the most significant potential gain from this military training.
"You all know about contract feedback and evolution feedback, right? Studies have shown that the beastmaster's physical fitness greatly influences contract feedback and evolution feedback.
"Instructor Zhou said, 'With equal strength and evolution, the stronger the physical qualities, the more feedback one will receive.'"
Li Qian agreed with this, as he had personally experienced this difference, and the impact was quite noticeable.
The most straightforward comparison was that with the same evolution of a Green Scaled Dragon, the evolution feedback Li Qian received was far greater than that of An Fat.
With this understanding, Li Qian didn't slack off during the upcoming military training. He put his full effort into every task, completing each one diligently.
Li Qian had a clear understanding of his own abilities and knew that he couldn't just be a Companion Beast Cultivator; he also needed to focus on combat.
The afternoon training session, being less intensive, mainly consisted of fundamental exercises like running, drills, and water-related activities, which weren't particularly challenging for Li Qian's physical qualities.
Given Li Qian's physical attributes, he breezed through with little difficulty. Of course, he didn't let this go to his head, as it was only the first day of training, and they had already lost half a day due to the opening ceremony. So, the instructor's plan was merely a warm-up.
The actual rigorous training, to be precise, would start tomorrow, and Li Qian had mentally prepared for this.
After training, Li Qian didn't waste time; he went to the Roundtable Dining Hall for a quick bite and also brought a meal for Lu Tianjiao before heading straight back to the dormitory.
After today's opening ceremony, Instructor Zhou led this group of freshmen to the Fifth Training Ground, which was the closest to the Roundtable Dining Hall, so Li Qian naturally went there for his meal.
The Roundtable Dining Hall, as its name suggests, differed from other dining halls in that the tables inside weren't the usual rectangular ones but round tables. In reality, the Roundtable Dining Hall was just a colloquial term that had become its nickname.
Upon returning to the dormitory, Li Qian saw that Lu Tianjiao had removed the gauze, and his wounds were barely visible. Li Qian wasn't surprised by this.
"Today must have been pretty boring, right? That old man Park Zhiyong just keeps on rambling about all sorts of things..." Lu Tianjiao didn't hold back either, casually taking the packed meal from Li Qian's hands while speaking.
Hearing his words, Li Qian already had a rough idea about Lu Tianjiao's identity, but since he didn't bring it up himself, Li Qian decided to play dumb.
Despite their close friendship, they had only known each other for a little over a day.
They had just experienced a lot together.
S
"Traditions? What traditions?" Li Qian's words instantly piqued Lu Tianjiao's curiosity.
Li Qian didn't hide anything and briefly recounted what had happened at the First Training Ground earlier.
