Chapter 345 - 345 75 Training in the Needle Cage【Two-in-One】

Chapter 345: Chapter 75 Training in the Needle Cage【Two-in-One】 Chapter 345: Chapter 75 Training in the Needle Cage【Two-in-One】 The instructor is ranting and raving.

“What are the rest of you standing around for? Didn’t I speak clearly? Or are you all as stupid as this pig?”

The crowd is starting to act.

The instructor starts patrolling around the field.

Continually, people are being kicked, shoved, and scolded.

Those who haven’t been picked on yet find the situation amusing and feel fortunate at the same time they are nervous, as little snickering sounds can be heard from time to time.

“You’re laughing! You laugh! What a bunch of crap! You’re worse than those pigs!”

The instructor is furious.

“I’m trying to teach you something here, and you’re laughing? What’s so funny? You think you’re in a courtesan house selling laughs?”

The harsher the instructor scolds, the more the assassins laugh. Not only do they laugh at others’ misfortunes, but they also laugh when they themselves are being beaten up.

For a moment, the Gold Rank assassin training base has become an ocean of mirth.

“What are you laughing at?”

The instructor roars, “Standing, walking, lying, crawling, rolling, are all everyday activities, and also often habitual… They have long become imprinted in your very bones! It’s an instinctive reaction! However, those bad habits of yours might cost your lives at any moment, understand? You’re all idiots! Your ultimate goal to come here is to correct those habits…Idiots! Still laughing, laughing, laughing…”

“Snicker…snicker…”

The instructor points at Feng Yin, demonstrating once again, “Use this way that I’ve shown you, attack with your blade!”

Without hesitation, Feng Yin immediately took action.

Then came the thud, thud, thud…a series of continuous kicks.

He was kicked away, rolling over a dozen meters on the ground.

“This isn’t right, neither is this, that’s still wrong, this is still wrong. You’re a damn pig!”

Feng Yin is made a tool, a classic example of a training punching bag.

“Idiot! Moron! Do you have a brain in your head? Are you a donkey? Even a donkey understands better than you!”

Such words of criticism come pouring down on Feng Yin, free of charge.

Watching the previously highly popular Feng Yin making so many mistakes, being trained like a dog by the instructor and continuously getting kicked, people initially found it entertaining. However, gradually, they could no longer laugh.

They all imagined themselves in Feng Yin’s place, considering how many kicks they would receive, would they fare any better than him? Some even began to think about how many times they would have died if they were currently facing their targets.

Feng Yin gradually realized that this really isn’t easy.

The instructor’s skill is indeed far above his own, but he didn’t oppress with his skills. He simply targeted Feng Yin’s flaws, and it was terrifying to experience. His movements had so many flaws, that they could manipulate him however they wanted.

Initially, Feng Yin thought that as long as he stood in rank like the soldiers did, everything would be fine, but when it was his turn to do it, he couldn’t get it right no matter how hard he tried. If it wasn’t one thing, it was another.

Let’s not even mention the rigorous training in the Heavenly Judge’s method, where even a tiny bit of discrepancy is unacceptable. A miss is as good as a mile, the difference of a hair’s breadth could mean life and death.

In the midst of the instructor’s constant shouting and swearing, the first day came to an end.

At night, they had only two hours of rest.

Feng Yin closed his eyes and kept replaying the standard movements of the instructor in his mind, comparing them with his own mistakes.

After a day of trials, even though it was only a single day, Feng Yin was surprised to find that he seemed to have improved a lot compared to when he was at home. It was only after experiencing these things personally that he could truly understand many of the nuances.

Many things that Zhuang Weiran had said to him at home, Feng Yin knew were right but found it hard to take them to heart. It’s true what they say, actions speak louder than words. All the mental preparation in the world makes no difference if there’s no implementation.

But here, he was able to understand the same things quickly and progress was fast!

Why is that?

Feng Yin asked himself, is it just because of the environment?

This was not only confusing to Feng Yin, many were baffled too.

Some people, who come from distinguished backgrounds with military officers as elders in the family, have been taught about marching and stepping in formation thousands of times but they could never do it right.

However, once they join the army, they are able to do it well within a few days.

This is actually a weakness inherent in human nature: for those who treat you well, you always take them for granted. Even if you restrain yourself rationally, your subconscious mind still works that way.

Because you know that no matter what, they will treat you well.

So, you can afford to ignore their advice.

But in a strange place, facing an unfamiliar authority figure, if you’re not obedient or serious, they can, will, and dare to punish you!

This leads to a situation where a family member’s thousand pleas of ‘why won’t you listen?’ will never equate to a stranger’s single query of ‘why won’t you listen?’.

The same words, spoken by different people, can have vastly different impacts!

Doing the same thing a thousand times at home and not getting it right doesn’t matter, but on the battlefield, one mistake could mean getting your head chopped off. Could the results be the same?

After a day’s training, the only thing that is firmly remembered are various key points and essentials. However, to fully understand, let alone implement, even if it’s a genius, it’s absolutely impossible.

Because it’s not realistic!

Habits formed over the years have already become instinctive. How can they be easily corrected?
