At eight in the morning, the military training began.
At precisely seven o'clock, the sharp sound of a bell pierced through the air above the base.
The dormitory erupted with complaints and curses.
The students, accustomed to lazing through the summer, had yet to adjust to a stricter routine.
Being forcibly awakened drew a chorus of grievances from these pampered scions.
The counselors of each class entered the dormitories, knocking on doors and wasting no time. They collected everyone's phones before the sleepy-eyed students could react.
Today marked the beginning of a two-week-long closed training program.
Chi Yu, guided by her biological clock, had already risen by six-thirty.
She moved quietly to avoid disturbing anyone, carrying her basin to the communal washroom to freshen up.
Upon returning to the dormitory, she attempted to wake Fang Jing, hoping to prevent her from having to queue later.
