My Pretty Campus Queen-Chapter 879 - 877: Push-Up Breakdowns

"Ah, no."

Everyone smiled bitterly and then spoke against their conscience. In their hearts, they were privately cursing Chen Tianlong for lacking humanity. But how could they dare to curse out loud? Just thinking about the scene when Lin Jun was brutally trained still made them shudder. If Chen Tianlong had been ruthless at that time, Lin Jun might have been lying motionless on the ground.

"Oh, that’s good. Prepare for the breakdown of push-up movements, begin, one..."

The moment Chen Tianlong finished speaking, the five training members began to lower their bodies. Chen Tianlong deliberately paused for a few seconds. Seeing their trembling bodies, he knew they were almost at their limit.

But this was exactly the effect Chen Tianlong wanted. A person’s potential is unlimited; if you don’t intentionally stimulate it, it will never be fully realized.

It’s like some people, when facing the threat of death, experience an enormous amount of pressure. A mother caught a child who fell from the twentieth floor directly with her arms. There was another news story where during an airplane accident, a woman’s lover was trapped under the plane, and just before suffocating, her body tapped into potential, allowing her—a woman seemingly devoid of any physical strength—to lift a private plane. What kind of power is this?

This is the body’s inherent instinct. As long as you stimulate it, there are endless possibilities.

"Two..."

Chen Tianlong’s "two" pulled the nearly collapsing individuals back, but Chen Tianlong had to add that this was voluntary; no one was being forced to train to exhaustion.

So Chen Tianlong said, "Do you all feel uncomfortable and in pain? This is just the beginning. There are ninety-nine more to go, and I can tell you very seriously that the training will get even harder and more dangerous. If anyone wants to quit now, you can leave immediately, otherwise, in the future, you won’t have a chance to leave because I won’t give you another opportunity. Either walk away, or strive to complete the task, and hold on until the end."

After a few seconds of silence, the five took a deep breath and gritted their teeth. Chen Tianlong knew the moment was ripe, so he didn’t want to delay any longer and started shouting, "One, two... one, two... one, two..."

Just like that, Chen Tianlong kept calling "one, two," until they completed 600 push-ups.

At this moment, the six of them were trembling as they held themselves up. Chen Tianlong felt anxious for them in his heart, acknowledging that their physiques weren’t as strong as his. He had been training intensely from a young age, often on the verge of fainting.

Back then, Chen Tianlong couldn’t understand why Fang Zun did this, but in retrospect, it all became clear that his master meant well for him. Without that devilish training, he wouldn’t possess his current astonishing endurance, heavenly-defying physique, and exceptional strength.

"Is everyone tired? Want to relax and rest?"

Chen Tianlong spoke calmly, making the five extremely nervous, unsure of his intentions. They had to be cautious, or else they’d fall into Chen Tianlong’s trap again like another couple of hundred reps of deconstructed push-ups.

"Not tired," the five replied in unison.

"Oh? Really?" Chen Tianlong chuckled mischievously.

"Really."

"Good, then another hundred, prepare for the breakdown!"

"....." Everyone was speechless, but they didn’t dare to speak. They could only get ready again, though they were already close to their limit. Continuing further would surely have them collapse; what training would there be then?

"One... two... one... two... stop! Stand up together," Chen Tianlong suddenly shouted.

"Huh?" Everyone had just completed half of it, feeling exhausted like dogs. They were surprised by the stop command and thought they heard it wrong, hesitating as they looked at one another.

"What? Not following orders anymore? Don’t want to stand up and continue?" Chen Tianlong found it amusing to see their dumbfounded expressions.

"Huh?" At this moment, they finally realized and quickly got up. Despite their weak, aching arms, they dared not delay.

Panting heavily, they quickly stood up and got in formation. Chen Tianlong walked to their front, observing their expressions, seeing a few with defiant looks.

"You, you, and you, do you feel like I’m torturing you?" Chen Tianlong smiled, but his smile carried an indisputable authority.

"No!"

The three who were called out had previously served as small leaders in the team. They’d never undergone such special training before and found it very tough. Besides, this is just a small leadership role—is this kind of training necessary?

"Hehe, obviously you do. I don’t like it when you keep things bottled up. I am your instructor and your brother... Do you understand what brotherhood is? It means sharing weal and woe. Speak up if you have something to say."

Chen Tianlong spoke loudly to them, leaving Lin Jun very shocked. It was his first time hearing an instructor call trainees brothers. Typically, instructors are cold-blooded, only making things difficult for you.

"Reporting, to be honest, I don’t quite understand why we train like this. We’re not a special forces unit, yet we’re undergoing such special training. We used to just run a few laps and complete the training circuit once, and that was enough, just to mean it. Plus, who can manage such high-intensity push-ups without feeling half-dead?" The person spoke defiantly.

At this moment, Chen Tianlong suddenly dropped to the ground and, before everyone could react, began doing push-ups at a rapid pace. Everyone was extremely surprised. Apparently, Chen Tianlong just wanted to convince that person through action.

Chen Tianlong’s speed left the attendees dumbfounded; he moved like an engine running at full throttle, mechanically performing the exercise.

In no time, he reached a thousand reps, leaving everyone in cold sweat.

And it wasn’t over. Chen Tianlong switched to one-handed push-ups, and that wasn’t even the main point. He paused deliberately each time he pressed down before rising again—clearly a one-handed push-up breakdown. This was unbelievably heaven-defying.

"Huh?"

The five were already shocked by Chen Tianlong’s actions—was he even human? It was like looking at Iron Man; his complexion was rosy, showing no signs of pain or discomfort.

Lin Jun was already in awe, sensing Chen Tianlong’s towering, unattainable image deeply engraved in his heart. Meanwhile, the others looked down in shame, unable to speak further.

A few minutes later, Chen Tianlong completed 300 one-handed push-up breakdowns and didn’t need to continue. This was enough.

"Alright, whatever you are asked to do, I will double it. I just hope you don’t think of yourselves as remarkable or see this training as exceedingly tough; those are all useless thoughts."

Chen Tianlong appeared very serious at the moment, believing that, as a special soldier, one must first make themselves invincible by strengthening both their inner self and body sufficiently.
