Interstellar Number One Farmer: I Only Want To Farm! - Chapter 20 - 10: Double Standards
The senior lawyer and the prestigious law school graduate smiled nonchalantly, hoping the young assistant wouldnāt be too disappointed. šÆš§š®š®šš®šš£ššššµ.š¬šøš
Dealing with acquaintancesā children is always the most challenging. If you donāt do well, the boss will think youāre incompetent. Do well, and thereās not much benefit to gain.
Fei Yi had no idea what her two colleagues were thinking. She was already prepared.
Pies donāt fall from the sky, and work wonāt always be smooth sailing. You have to fight for everything, and sheās ready to accept whatever outcome comes her way.
...
Two days had just passed when Su Xiaocai emerged from her bedroom, yawning as she handed Wu Qingqing a training schedule.
Wu Qingqing massaged Su Xiaocaiās shoulders, saying earnestly, "Thank you for your hard work."
"It wasnāt hard. I mainly have other things to do. Later, Iāll be meeting with people from the law firm. You follow the training schedule I gave you and try it out for a day. If you canāt complete it, Iāll lower the intensity a bit."
Wu Qingqing felt that no matter how difficult the intensity was, she would be able to manage it without issue.
However, as her gaze swept over the first dayās schedule, her scalp began to tingle.
Get up at five in the morning, eat some high-calorie bars, chocolate, and such, then go for a run, complete 20 kilometers before 6:15. Breakfast is already customized, Xiao Wanzi will handle all meals. Learn a new set of body techniques within an hour, and then thereās the stretching and flexibility training...
"I usually do some stretching; Iām not that stiff. Wouldnāt the flexibility training be too much?" Flexibility training not only requires doing the splits but also achieving an incredible level of overall body flexibility to be considered successful.
Itās an extremely painful training process.
Su Xiaocai knew that if she didnāt explain, Wu Qingqing might find it hard to put in her best effort. "You already know your body isnāt very stiff. Whatās the greatest advantage of women? Itās flexibility, of course. Your cousinās fighting style is obviously straightforward, direct, and wielding sweeping gestures. Do you know why you havenāt felt much progress? Because youāre learning from him."
"Youāre only focusing on fixing your weaknesses, unwilling to amplify your strengths. Naturally, your progress will be slow."
These words overturned the direction of Wu Qingqingās past stubborn efforts.
People used to call her a tomboy, so she trained herself like a man. Could she really be a soft girl as well?
Flexibility training couldnāt be delayed, but it couldnāt be achieved overnight either, so it could only be done gradually.
Next was combat adaptation.
"For the next year, you canāt spar with your cousin. Your only opponent will be me."
Wu Qingqing was utterly baffled, "Then...how will I know if Iām improving?"
At this time, Xiao Wanzi handed Su Xiaocai a bowl of beef noodles, with added fried eggs and vegetables, all piled high, as if afraid she wouldnāt eat enough.
Su Xiaocai slurped the noodles for a couple of bites to ease her hunger, and she said, "Imagine two years from now, you might catch up to your cousin, but do you think you can catch up to me?"
Wu Qingqing thought about it, it was difficult, to be precise, it was simply impossible.
That kind of non-human level of piloting skills, even seasoned military officers who have been in the army for over a decade, wouldnāt dare to confidently claim they could easily handle dozens of Insect Men simultaneously.
"If you take your cousin as a benchmark for progress, that limit will always be that high. If you take me as your benchmark, thereās virtually no ceiling."
Star Miao and Feng Wansha, who had been onlookers for quite a while, came over, very curious.
Feng Wansha bluntly asked, "So, whereās your limit?"
"If the mecha can meet my desired standards, dealing with a division would be no problem."
A division means tens of thousands, doesnāt it?
Can the most advanced mechas accomplish that?
Wu Qingqing felt a bit dizzy, starry-eyed, believing it easily.
"Youāre just boasting." Xing Miao affectionately tapped Su Xiaocaiās forehead. Currently, mechas canāt achieve that, and as someone studying command, she knows best what kind of damage various models can inflict on Insect Men.
But Su Xiaocai is indeed very skilled, at a level unattainable by ordinary people, "So how did you train to be so impressive at such a young age?"
Su Xiaocai grinned, flicking her bangs, "Thereās definitely a bit of a difference between geniuses and ordinary folks."
"You finally admit youāre a genius," said Feng Wansha.
Yes, only the word "genius" could explain her legendary, bug-like skills.
"You know what? You have some greens stuck between your teeth," Xing Miao pointed out out of nowhere.
The previously full-of-herself Su Xiaocai retracted her smug smile, panicked, pulled over Xiao Wanzi, and used her fingernail to scrape off the bits of vegetable while using the gleaming metal shell as a mirror in an attempt to restore her high-profile image.
The three laughed uproariously in the dormitory. Su Xiaocaiās concern for her image juxtaposed with her boorish behavior was hilarious.
As luck would have it, Su Xiaocai sent Wu Qingqing a video, instructing her to follow the steps in the video to begin her stretching and flexibility training.
