108: Propose the Yuanyang Formation again

After the negotiations were settled, the Principal informed Yu Xiu about the matter and also mentioned the resources.

This news pleasantly surprised Yu Xiu.

He hadn't expected that merely plagiarizing the military training method from his previous life would cause such a stir.

The most important thing was that he had, out of nowhere, gained a new batch of resources.

According to the Principal, as long as this military training method was popularized nationwide in the future, he would be etched into history.

Yu Xiu, however, didn't care much about this.

Not to mention the military training method, just his current strength—a seventeen-year-old Martial Venerable.

No, the outside world was saying he was a seventeen-year-old Martial King.

Although Yu Xiu hadn't yet achieved a Breakthrough to Martial King, his combat power was comparable to a Martial King.

As soon as the military training concluded and the team was named and registered, his strength would immediately achieve a Breakthrough to Martial King.

Just like that, ten days passed in a flash.

Not only Huaxia University but also other universities had stood in military posture for ten full days.

Facing the August sun, the students had generally become a shade darker.

But strangely enough, although the students privately cursed the school leaders, no one cursed Yu Xiu.

"Military Training Exchange Competition?"

That day, the Principal found Yu Xiu and told him that the Principals of the Ten Famous Schools had proposed to hold a Military Training Exchange Competition at Huaxia University.

"What is there to exchange?"

The Principal angrily said, "These ungrateful old fogeys, after learning our school's military training method, they think they're hot stuff again."

"Moreover, these old fogeys specifically emphasized that since you are currently the General Instructor for military training, you are not allowed to participate in the Military Training Exchange Competition."

"This is clearly them taking advantage of your position as General Instructor to get revenge on us in advance."

Yu Xiu suddenly remembered that after military training, there would be the Freshmen Exchange Competition among the major universities.

Now, the Ten Famous Schools were taking advantage of his position as General Instructor to deliberately find an opportunity for early revenge.

"I can't do anything about this!" Yu Xiu said, "They already said it's a Military Training Exchange Competition, and I am the General Instructor for military training, so I really can't participate."

The Principal snorted coldly, "I'm not angry about that. Even if you don't participate in the Military Training Exchange Competition, their schools won't win. Do they really think our Huaxia University's number one ranking was just handed to us?"

"Number one is number one. The overall strength of our school's freshmen is simply much stronger than other schools."

"The reason I'm angry is that they're playing dirty tricks; it's too infuriating."

"They're using the name of a Military Training Exchange Competition, and for the next twenty days of military training, they want it to take place at our school."

"To put it bluntly, while getting their early revenge, they also want you to help train their students. It's simply too shameless!"

Yu Xiu laughed, "Principal, it shouldn't be as complicated as you think, right?"

"It's not that I'm thinking too complicatedly; the key is that those old fogeys are just that dirty."

The Principal angrily said, "You don't know, those few old fogeys were dirty-minded even when they were young, using all sorts of disgusting tactics."

"I understand." Yu Xiu chuckled, "No wonder you hate those few Principals so much, Principal. It turns out you were bullied by their disgusting tactics when you were young."

"What do you mean 'bullied'?" The Principal's old face flushed, and he retorted with a stiff neck, "When I was young, I was the one bullying them! Even if they used disgusting tactics, they never got the better of me. That's absolutely impossible."

Yu Xiu lightly chuckled, "I understand. Principal, when you were young, you suppressed an entire era; no one could rival you."

The Principal couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Do you think I'm as abnormal as you? Suppressing an era, how embarrassing."

"Alright, I'm too lazy to talk about those old fogeys. Get ready; they'll bring their people to our school tomorrow."

"You are now the General Instructor for military training, so prepare in advance. Don't let those old fogeys succeed; they won't get their early revenge."

Yu Xiu asked, "How will the Military Training Exchange Competition be conducted?"

The Principal said, "It will be based on the duration of standing in military posture, and also team battles, with a hundred people per team, in a competitive match."

Yu Xiu nodded and said, "I know what to do."

...In the afternoon, Yu Xiu arrived at the training ground.

After this period of observation and understanding, he had selected the students for his class, and the list was already prepared.

He had originally planned to submit these names after the military training ended.

Now, there was a Military Training Exchange Competition.

The competition would be a hundred-person team confrontation.

So Yu Xiu decided to bring them out early.

"Now, those whose names I call, step forward: Lin Yan, Chen Xiaoxu, Zhang Hua..."

Yu Xiu called out ninety-nine names in a row.

According to the rules of the Military Training Exchange Competition, there must be a hundred people.

So he added one more.

In other words, the ninety-nine people called out earlier were all students of the future Martial Dao Class One.

Adding himself, the hundred slots for Martial Dao Class One were filled.

The one added later was mainly to prepare for the upcoming Military Training Exchange Competition.

"Those whose names were just called will participate in the Military Training Exchange Competition among the major universities."

"And you hundred people will be personally trained by me from now on."

"As for the others, starting today, form groups of ten and begin sparring. The requirement is that your strength must be similar, and you can only use Martial Skill for sparring. The Martial Skill can only be Elementary Martial Skill."

Yu Xiu said, "For each sparring match, every time you win, you get one point added to your military training score."

"I'm sure you understand that military merits are awarded based on the final military training score."

"I won't say much more; I hope you can understand it yourselves."

As his voice fell, Yu Xiu led these hundred people to the other side of the training ground and asked, "You should all have practiced the Elementary Boxing Martial Skill, right?"

"Now, begin to demonstrate it on the spot."

Upon hearing this, the hundred people quickly spread out and began to practice the Elementary Boxing Martial Skill.

Yu Xiu's gaze swept over them.

He found that their Elementary Boxing Martial Skill was quite good; although none had reached the highest Rank of perfection, they were all at the proficient stage, just with varying depths of mastery.

"Stop!"

After ten days of standing in military posture, these students had gradually developed a sense of tacit understanding and teamwork; they no longer acted independently.

Whether in formation or standing at attention, they would subconsciously pay attention to those around them.

This was a good habit.

"Now I will teach you a battle formation. Its name is the Mandarin Duck Formation."

After the military posture training became popular, Yu Xiu began to ponder at that time.

Thinking of ancient battle formations, he performed countless deductions.

Ultimately, he couldn't help but admire the abilities of the Old Ancestors; these battle formations were incredibly formidable.

Especially in team battles, they could exponentially amplify the team's power.

"Battle formation?"

"Mandarin Duck Formation?"

They had never heard of this term before.

However, after ten days of military training, they had developed the habit of not asking questions casually, but rather waiting for Yu Xiu's further explanation.

"I will now first explain the principles of the Mandarin Duck Formation and its variations..."

Half an hour later, Yu Xiu had thoroughly explained the Mandarin Duck Formation, including how to change formations.

"Now you will train yourselves, and you must also train the various formation changes."

"Teamwork and tacit understanding are very important; otherwise, the battle formation's effectiveness cannot be fully utilized."
