"Qu Sen, step forward!" Tong Qinglong didn't waste any time and directly called out Qu Sen's name.
When Qu Sen heard that the second class monitor asked him to show the students, he muttered in his heart. He pondered, "It's not easy to fight like this. If he runs too fast, he'll be suspected of showing off. If he runs too slow, I'm afraid people will whisper that he's undeserved."
However, with the provocation from the communication engineering team, Qu Sen instantly became excited. On the day of the registration, Xu Jian got a little drunk and went to 510 to show off. Although Gao Xiaosong brought him over to apologize in the afternoon, everyone understood that it was because of the strict school rules.
During the following period of time, the communication command and communication engineering team had been taught in the same lecture hall. Although Xu Jian didn't say or do anything extreme, every time he looked at the people of 510, especially Qu Sen, his eyes were not friendly.
Ge Cunshan reminded the people in the class many times, "If Xu Jian wants to look, let him look. It's not like you'll lose a piece of meat. As long as he doesn't take the initiative to cause trouble, no one in the class is allowed to talk to him. "
Qu Sen completely agreed with Ge Cunshan's approach. He didn't want to cause trouble. If there was a conflict, the school would deal with it indiscriminately. Therefore, he completely ignored Xu Jian's silent provocation.
But today was different. Xu Jian was not convinced because both of them had won the 400-meter event in the big competition and their results were the same. Then let's give him a good slap in the face. Let's use the training to compete fair and square. Even if he was not convinced, he had to be convinced!
When he was in the recruit company, the instructor of Second Company said that Qu Sen was a competitive athlete. The stronger the opponent, the fiercer his strength.
That instructor was right. Just the fact that his opponent was the 1997-meter event champion of the Northwest Military Region was enough to make Qu Sen excited. In addition, Xu Jian's previous provocation made Qu Sen more or less angry. Xu Jian turned his camouflage hat to the back of his head and looked at him provocatively.
Qu Sen returned a smile and took the lead to walk towards the starting point.
Seeing that the white line was getting closer and closer to the starting point, Qu Sen felt his body tremble uncontrollably. His heart began to beat faster and faster, pushing the oxygen in his blood to every corner of his body.
"Exercise well. Don't get hurt." When Qu Sen passed by Tong Qinglong, Tong Qinglong patted him on the shoulder and whispered to him.
After Qu Sen responded, he walked to the starting line in a few steps and began to stretch his body.
Although Qu Sen had never stopped training during this period of time, he rarely touched the 400-meter obstacle because he had to catch up with other training subjects after the military competition.
After leaving the infantry regiment, he hadn't run even once until now. Today's track was completely unfamiliar to him. If he didn't exercise well, he would get hurt if he wasn't careful.
Soon, Qu Sen and Xu Jian finished warming up. They stood at the starting point and waited for the whistle to sound. The students of the two teams also quieted down.
Because the "clamor" of the two student teams was too loud, even the Shuo and Bo students at the edge of the track were attracted. They all stopped what they were doing and gathered around the edge of the field on the communications engineering side to watch the excitement.
As Tong Qinglong's whistle sounded, Qu Sen and Xu Jian rushed onto the flat track at the same time and turned into the obstacle area almost at the same time.
When Qu Sen stepped on the three-step pole, the familiar muscle memory quickly returned. On the other side, although Xu Jian was also the champion of the military competition, that was before he became a sergeant.
Although he also knew how to run these years, his condition was much worse than Qu Sen's, whose muscle memory was still very fresh. After the first one hundred meters in the obstacle area, he was obviously behind.
On the communications engineering side, they weren't discouraged by the fact that their runners were lagging behind. Instead, they were desperately cheering for them. On the communications command side, because Qu Sen was in the lead, the students cheered even louder.
Tong Qinglong saw that everyone's cheering was too chaotic, so he raised his left arm and waved it at the same frequency. Soon, under the orderly cheering of the communications command side, their momentum completely overwhelmed their opponents.
When Qu Sen finished the second one hundred meters in the obstacle area and turned to sprint, Xu Jian had just finished the five-step pole. When he saw that Qu Sen had already started sprinting, he relaxed. Although he was still running at full speed, the distance between him and Qu Sen began to widen.
"One minute and twenty-eight!" The second squad leader shouted as he pressed the stopwatch with his right hand.
The sudden burst of cheers from the communications command side almost completely covered the cheers from the communications engineering side.
A few seconds later, Xu Jian also crossed the finish line. Gao Xiaosong pressed the stopwatch and shouted at the same time, "One minute and thirty-seven!"
One minute and thirty-seven was definitely a good result in the 400-meter steeplechase. But Qu Sen, who was also a champion in the military region, ran one minute and twenty-eight. Xu Jian felt that his face was burning. He lowered his head and breathed heavily, silently returning to the line to receive the comfort of his comrades around him.
It was obvious that this competition had caused a huge blow to Xu Jian's self-confidence.
Qu Sen was very energetic today. Although he was panting after the 400-meter run, he wasn't too tired. He was almost recovered after taking two steps.
Even though he had won with an obvious advantage, Tong Qinglong was still trying to make up for the fact that Qu Sen had run one minute and twenty-six in the rain during the competition. Today, the weather was good, so he "only" ran one minute and twenty-eight.
After the students' cheers died down a little, he deliberately said loudly, "Amazing! You ran one minute and twenty-eight in a completely unfamiliar field. You really deserve your first place title."
The students of the student team didn't care whether they understood the hidden meaning of the second squad leader's words. They praised Qu Sen again. Qu Sen felt embarrassed standing in the line, so he kept being modest.
"Old Zhao, we lost this round. How about we compare the average scores of the two teams today?" The squad leader of the communications engineering side issued a new round of challenge.
"Comrades, did you hear that? What do we say?" Tong Qinglong didn't accept the challenge immediately. Instead, he stirred up the students on his side.
Everyone's emotions were successfully stirred up. There was no need for the second squad leader to say anything. The horns and drums sounded loudly.
Not far from the 400-meter steeplechase training area, under the shade of a tree on the side of the single and parallel bars training field, Zhou Li and Li Ying were paying attention to the movement of the 400-meter steeplechase field.
After Qu Sen finished, Li Ying couldn't help but shake Zhou Li's arm. "Damn, that was too fast. Did I hear wrong? One minute and twenty-eight!"
"He ran like a stupid deer. What's there to see? Let's go! Go back to the dorm and buy some water. " After Miss Zhou rolled her eyes at a certain bastard on the other side of the 400-meter track, she stood up and walked towards the dormitory while stretching her arms that were a little weak.
The reason why she stayed with Li Ying until now was to see that bastard lose and make a fool of himself. She didn't expect that the 1997 champion of the Northwest Military Region was so useless. He was actually left so far behind. She thought that the older a soldier was, the better their performance would be.
"Aiya, when can I run the 400-meter obstacle course?" Li Ying complained in a rare coquettish tone. Then she followed Zhou Li dejectedly towards the dorm. "Three minutes and ten seconds pass. Two minutes and forty seconds pass. Two minutes and forty seconds pass. Two minutes and a half pass! Who the hell set it? Two minutes and a half? Who can finish it? "
Hearing Li Ying's weak complaints, Zhou Li's expression became even more miserable. "Okay, you're almost at the 'good' mark. I'm still far from passing."
Among the technical students, the 400-meter obstacle course didn't exist in the previous assessment for female soldiers. This year, more than half of the students collapsed when it was added.
In fact, the passing line for the 400-meter obstacle course was three minutes and ten seconds for female soldiers. The standard was already very low. It was just that female soldiers generally had weaker upper body strength and were timid. That was why it took so much effort to reach the standard.
However, no matter how sad Zhou Li and Li Ying were, the passing, good, and excellent rates of the assessment were there for all to see. If they wanted to follow the instructor's topic and get a master's degree, they still had to practice no matter how much they complained.
After the two returned to the dorm listlessly, they looked at each other in tacit understanding. They realized that the other party was the same as them. They didn't want to go out and buy water, so they used the warm water in the thermos to quench their thirst.
After changing out of their camouflage uniforms, they lay down on Zhou Li's bed one after another. They lazily got up and changed into their normal clothes when it was almost time for dinner.
When the two left the dorm, the communication command and communication engineering teams had already lined up and were heading towards the cafeteria. However, everyone in the communication command team was in high spirits.
