Chapter 21 - Chapter 21: One Thousand Push-ups

Regardless of anything else, the Lone Wolf Special Commando Unit was known as the premier commando unit within Wolf Fang.

Having lost to Lin Mu, the unwilling Grey Wolf heard that one person had yet to be caught and naturally wanted to take this opportunity to regain his lost pride.

"No need, you all know who he is. He's already waiting for us," Dog Head Old Gao said with a mysterious smile.

Upon hearing Squad Leader Gao's words, Grey Wolf thought of that familiar name on the trainee list and fell silent.

"Sigh!"

The resentment in his heart could only turn into a sigh.

He had originally planned to give Lin Mu a show of force, but he hadn't expected Lin Mu to give Wolf Fang a show of force instead.

This was a massive loss of face.

Lin Mu followed Grey Wolf and the others to the training camp, walked over to stand beside Old Cannon, and looked straight ahead.

Dog Head Old Gao led the Lone Wolf A Team, who had lost their armbands, into the training camp. He didn't speak but instead scanned the surroundings.

Quickly, Dog Head Old Gao locked onto his target and walked straight toward the person.

Stopping in front of a man wearing special combat fatigues, Dog Head Old Gao sized him up carefully once more before suddenly throwing a punch directly into the man's stomach.

In the original story, Dog Head Old Gao only caught this person at the very end.

But his mood today was quite foul because his men had suffered a setback against Lin Mu, and he needed someone to vent his anger on.

Following Dog Head Old Gao's punch, Geng Jihui was instantly seized by two Wolf Fang Special Forces soldiers.

"You really know how to play, don't you? Where's my man?" Dog Head Old Gao asked with a dark expression.

"Report, in a grass nest three kilometers to the southeast," Geng Jihui said, enduring the pain.

"Your name, unit, and rank," Dog Head Old Gao said.

"Report: Geng Jihui, Cadet, Reconnaissance Company, 601st Regiment, 329th Division, 82nd Group Army," Geng Jihui said.

"Very well, I'll remember you," Dog Head Old Gao said.

In fact, Dog Head Old Gao knew this Geng Jihui because his father was Wolf Fang's first Political Commissar—Geng Hui.

Geng Hui was not only Dog Head Old Gao's closest brother in Wolf Fang but also He Zhijun's best partner and the best Political Commissar Wolf Fang ever had.

In Dog Head Old Gao's heart, Geng Hui's position was irreplaceable.

After glancing at Geng Jihui and Lin Mu, who were already in the formation, he then looked toward the ten people standing under the national flag who had been caught first.

"You have been eliminated. Take off your helmets, place them under the national flag, and then return to your respective companies," Dog Head Old Gao said.

"Why must we take off our helmets? These helmets are equipment issued to us by our companies," the leading Soldier said unwillingly.

"Execute the order. Take off your helmets immediately, and then get lost," Dog Head Old Gao was never one for easy conversation.

In the original story, he was willing to spend time explaining to those who were eliminated because his mood had been decent then.

But now, his mood could be described as terrible.

All of this was caused by Lin Mu and Geng Jihui, but mainly by Lin Mu.

However, he couldn't do anything to Lin Mu, and Geng Jihui was the son of his old comrade-in-arms.

So, he could only vent all his anger on these eliminated people.

This was Wolf Fang, and they were participating in the Wolf Fang Training Camp selection. As long as they didn't meet Wolf Fang's standards, they would be eliminated.

If he had to give every eliminated person a reason, he wouldn't get anything else done.

If they wanted a reason, there was only one: they were too weak.

Whether eliminated due to luck or skill, to Wolf Fang, weak was weak.

Furthermore, this was the military, and the weak had no right to demand reasons from their superiors.

The ten eliminated people dejectedly took off their helmets and slowly placed them under the red flag.

They looked up at the red flag and let out an unwilling roar.

These people knew very well what taking off their helmets represented; after all, the Wolf Fang selection happened every year.

Before coming, they had also asked seniors in their companies who had participated in the selection.

The reason they asked so much just now was that they wanted to struggle a bit more to see if there was any chance of a turnaround.

After the ten eliminated people were sent away, Dog Head Old Gao stood on a jeep and used a megaphone to announce the regulations during the Wolf Fang Training Camp.

Even if Dog Head Old Gao hadn't said it, Lin Mu and the others already knew.

It was nothing more than no leave, no communication, and so on.

"Grey Wolf, is the inspection finished?" Dog Head Old Gao asked.

Before announcing the regulations, Dog Head Old Gao had ordered Grey Wolf to inspect the rucksacks of the incoming Rookies.

"Report, inspection complete," Grey Wolf said loudly.

Hearing Grey Wolf's words, Dog Head Old Gao turned his gaze toward Lin Mu.

Upon seeing Dog Head Old Gao's gaze, Lin Mu had a bad feeling that something was about to happen.

"Because someone among you has made me very unhappy, you will do one thousand push-ups. Whoever finishes will immediately proceed to the next item: Extreme Armed Cross-country Running."

"Begin!" Dog Head Old Gao roared.

The moment Dog Head Old Gao shouted to begin, Lin Mu was already on the ground doing push-ups.

At the same time, he silently offered his condolences to the others.

He didn't care himself, but as for the others, they shouldn't expect a good outcome.

Because his body had already been modified, Lin Mu didn't fear any of Dog Head Old Gao's training.

Lin Mu's push-ups were not only standard but also fast; while others had only done ten, Lin Mu had already done twenty.

The others doing push-ups didn't notice Lin Mu's speed, but the Wolf Fang members standing opposite did.

The Wolf Fang Special Forces soldiers, who always prided themselves on having seen it all, were all staring at Lin Mu, unconsciously beginning to count in their heads.

The military is a place of strict discipline, and especially under these circumstances, they couldn't just speak randomly.

They could only communicate with their eyes.

"He truly is someone who could defeat our Lone Wolf A Team; we can't even match this speed."

"Forget about this speed, you can't even match his speed of promotion."

"Not only is he fast, but his form is standard. Think back to when we were in training."

"Tsk tsk, I don't want to think about it. Stop communicating; if Squad Leader Gao catches us, we'll be in for it."

"Squad Leader Gao, it seems this trick of yours isn't working," Grey Wolf whispered to Dog Head Old Gao as he watched Lin Mu, who was nearly finished.

"Doing them fast now is nothing. The main course comes later. Just watch," Dog Head Old Gao said with a smug smile.

But soon after, Dog Head Old Gao could no longer smile.

The group of Wolf Fang Special Forces soldiers also began to look straight ahead, not even daring to breathe loudly.

Today was the first day of the Wolf Fang Training Camp. After all the Rookies who came for training were brought to this camp, they were intimidated by the environment and the aura of the surrounding Wolf Fang Special Forces soldiers.

So, after Lin Mu entered the camp, Old Cannon, Zhuang Yan, and Happy Baby, who had come with him, didn't dare to ask Lin Mu why he had arrived so lat
