Zhao Rui did not listen to the tall one' counting.
Because at this moment, a special notification sounded in his mind.
[ Push-up training effect, + 1! ]
[ After entering the dream state, the effect will be increased by three times. ]
[ Real-time feedback, stamina has increased. ]
..
Such a notification appeared almost as soon as he started doing the push-ups.
He couldn't believe it, not only did he not feel tired, he was getting more and more energetic from the push-ups.
None of the new students in the cafeteria had ever undergone such intense physical training.
At this moment, they were all howling in pain.
In the eyes of the senior students, there was a hint of schadenfreude.
They had been taught a lesson like this before.
They could empathize with them.
This was only the beginning.
Gradually, not many of the new students could push on any longer.
Even the physically fit ones could only continue on until forty or fifty before they finally collapsed on the ground.
They still wanted to continue, but their trembling arms did not allow them to do so.
In the entire freshmen group, only Elena and Zhao Rui were still pushing through.
When the senior on duty saw that Zhao Rui was doing the push-ups without even panting, a hint of surprise appeared on his face.
Most freshmen did not have such strong stamina.
But this kid seemed to be different.
His push-up speed was getting faster and faster, even surpassing Elena's.
This made him view Zhao Rui in a different light.
But Zhao Rui himself didn't notice anything unusual.
After receiving the notifications from the system, he was already addicted to this kind of training mode and effect, which was similar to scrolling through data.
Until he heard a clear report from Elena.
He snapped out of it.
He remained in the push-up position.
But the freshmen around him looked at him as if he were a monster.
Seeing such a scene, Zhao Rui asked unsurely: "Is the number of push-ups enough?"
The freshmen looked at him even more strangely.
Deep down, they were thinking, "This kid isn't a pervert, is he?".
Not only did the number of push-ups far exceed that of Elena, it even seemed as if he hadn't done enough push-ups.
A light also flashed across Elena's eyes.
She didn't expect this freshman named Zhao Rui to have such good stamina.
"Zhao Rui, you've done enough push-ups. You can get up now."
Zhao Rui stood up without any hesitation.
"Yes!"
He stood at attention immediately.
At this moment, the senior on duty looked around at the flustered freshmen.
"Let's eat."
Most of the freshmen had yet to catch their breath. Under such circumstances, even if they were about to eat, they probably wouldn't be in the mood to eat.
However, Zhao Rui saw that the seniors didn't hesitate at all when they heard these two words and immediately sat down. The motion caused a gust of wind.
He realized that this was most likely a deliberate arrangement by the senior students.
He sat down and like the senior students, began to engulf the food in front of him.
At this moment, his every action was as if he had not done the push-ups from before.
However, the other freshmen's hands were trembling from holding chopsticks and spoons.
One of the students sitting next to Zhao Rui couldn't help but mutter, "Zhao Rui, you're really amazing. You just finished such a high-intensity physical training, yet you can still eat."
Zhao Rui only glanced at the student next to him.
He tried to pick up the food several times, but he couldn't put it into his mouth at all.
Zhao Rui sighed lightly.
"I advise you to eat more if you can. I don't think the senior is done with us."
After saying this, he caught a glimpse of the senior on duty from the corner of his eye.
A sinister smile appeared on this his face.
And he kept looking at the time.
Just as he expected.
Not long after, the senior suddenly gave an order, "Stand up."
His voice echoed in the empty cafeteria.
Almost in an instant, the sound of tableware colliding had disappeared.
And the senior students had already finished eating.
Only these new students had stunned expressions on their faces, their trembling hands still trying to put food in their mouths.
"The meal time is over. Next, I'll take you to clean up your appearance."
"What!"
These new students had only just regained their appetite.
But at this moment, this senior student took the opportunity to show his authority.
With the push-up punishment from before, no one dared to object.
All of them stood up.
Now, their line was no longer as uneven as before.
Finally, they were somewhat in sync.
Elena smiled lightly when she saw this scene.
This was only the elementary training of Odin Academy.
They had yet to realize how terrifying it really was.
At this moment, the senior on duty shouted, "Everyone, listen to my command and turn left."
Elena also led the new students out of the cafeteria.
However, no one knew where they were going.
They only stopped at the entrance of the cafeteria for a short while before they saw the seniors walk out of the cafeteria in unison.
The senior on duty was next.
He narrowed his eyes and smiled.
"Alright, all freshmen listen to my orders. Now, I'll take you to get a haircut."
A haircut?
Zhao Rui's heart skipped a beat.
He suddenly remembered the senior students he had seen before. All of them were wearing hats.
And under the hats was a short crew cut.
Even though the new students were a lot more organized, they still couldn't help but feel curious about the academy.
"Great, I've been wanting to redesign my hairstyle for a long time."
"Before I came here, my mom said that she wouldn't let me touch it even if she died."
"I told you that this hairstyle is no longer popular! I just wanted to change it."
..
Some people began to discuss and yearn for it.
However, the senior on duty looked at the crowd with a meaningful look. "I guarantee that all of you will be spirited and handsome after you get a haircut."
"You will be very handsome!"
He pretended to be casual and took off the hat on his head.
When the freshmen saw his crew cut, some of them noticed that something was wrong.
Someone pointed at the head of the senior on duty and said, "Senior, don't tell me you want us to have the same hairstyle as you?"
The senior smiled but didn't say anything.
There were screams again among the freshmen!
