Chapter 8 Masochist? Come on! Keep going!
When Nami came out after taking a shower, Tang Fei had already fallen into a comfortable sleep after using three sacrificial gems.
Looking at Tang Fei, who was fast asleep, Nami smiled faintly. Not feeling that the single bed was too cramped, she wrapped herself in a bath towel and hugged Tang Fei to sleep.
The bright sunlight kept bothering Tang Fei's eyes, forcing him to open them.
Just as Tang Fei got up, he found himself holding Nami in his arms. Looking at her adorable sleeping face, he couldn't help but gently stroke her soft hair with his left hand, which wasn't being pressed down. The fragrance of her bath made him feel comfortable, and sleepiness returned.
A piercing bell rang out from the playground.
"Nami! Tang Fei! Come out here! If you don't come out, get out of the elite training camp!" Zephyr's roar came from outside.
"Still looking!" Nami frowned when she heard the piercing bell and Zephyr's roar. She opened her sleepy eyes and looked at Tang Fei with her bright and beautiful eyes. When she saw that he was staring at her, she couldn't help but say coquettishly.
"It's only natural for me to admire my own wife!" Tang Fei said shamelessly, his expression filled with pride.
When Nami saw him acting like a scoundrel, she spat and quickly got up, grabbed her clothes, and ran into the bathroom to change.
Tang Fei lay on the bed yesterday without taking off his clothes, quietly waiting for Nami to change.
Seeing that Nami had changed her clothes, Tang Fei couldn't help but swallow hard. She was wearing the Navy's women's uniform. The allure of a pure and beautiful young girl in uniform was irresistible!
"Let's go!" Nami saw Tang Fei's lecherous look but felt no disgust. On the contrary, she felt a little proud. However, she couldn't help but blush and annoyed.
As Tang Fei left the room, he casually stuffed the two sacrificial gems into his clothes, close to his skin. Since he was still wearing Earth clothing—casual loose suit pants and a sapphire blue shirt—the two pigeon-egg-sized sacrificial gems were quite conspicuous, so he placed them on his lower back.
Nami didn't know what Tang Fei was up to, nor did she ask. She followed him out to the playground.
When Nami and Tang Fei arrived at the training ground, Zephyr looked at them solemnly. The expressions of the students in the formation were a mix of mockery, anger, and ridicule.
"Run thirty laps around the track! Now! If you don't, get out of the training camp immediately!" Zephyr faced Tang Fei and Nami, pointing at the track and coldly ordering them.
Just as Nami was about to retort, Tang Fei gently patted her right hand, turned around and started running on the playground, even faster than yesterday!
Seeing Tang Fei run away, Nami glared at Zephyr and ran after him, her face showing worry.
Tang Fei quickly ran two laps, and his speed did not drop as drastically as it had yesterday; in fact, he quickened his pace.
Nami looked at Tang Fei's change in surprise, subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and revealed a bright smile. Her steps became much lighter, and she ran alongside Tang Fei.
Five laps, ten laps...
Tang Fei and Nami were not slowed down at all; they even had relaxed smiles on their faces, were not out of breath, and were not sweating!
Zefa clearly saw Tang Fei's change, a strange smile appeared on his lips, and two glints of light flashed in his eyes.
Hina, Smoker, and Drake, the three strongest in this training camp, naturally have the best eyesight. They can clearly see the stark difference between Tang Fei's performance yesterday and his performance yesterday.
"Was it all an act yesterday?" Smoker narrowed his eyes slightly, pondering to himself, and muttered to himself.
"Hina is so surprised." Hina couldn't help but exclaim, and at the same time, she spoke for the students around her.
Drake didn't say anything, but a fighting spirit appeared in his eyes. He also wanted to run thirty laps and see who could do it more easily.
As Tang Fei ran, he clearly felt the sacrificial gem, which was slightly digging into his back, emitting a cool energy that continuously washed away his fatigue and brought his stamina to its peak. But this wasn't what surprised Tang Fei the most. What surprised him most was that while he was running, his physical strength was rapidly increasing as he recovered his energy!

Tang Fei never expected that exercising while carrying the Sacrifice Gem so closely could cause his strength to increase so rapidly!
In less than half an hour, Tang Fei had run thirty laps around the track, but he did not stop, but continued!
As Tang Fei ran, he secretly pulled out a sacrificial gem and held it in his hand. He wasn't satisfied with thirty laps! He wanted to continue!
"Honey, we've reached the 30th lap." Nami reminded Tang Fei when she noticed he was still running after completing the 30th lap.
"Yeah, I know. That was the punishment of thirty laps. Now I'm running voluntarily. I want to become stronger. I don't want to hide behind my wife." Tang Fei smiled sweetly at Nami, and then suddenly sped up.
Tang Fei's speed was originally very fast, comparable to a 100-meter sprint, but now, he has actually increased his speed!
Seeing Tang Fei sweating profusely but not stopping, Zefa's eyes lit up with admiration. Suddenly, he shouted, "Are you willing to be overtaken by this newbie?!"
"No way!" Seeing Tang Fei's indomitable spirit, the trainees couldn't help but feel their blood boil and shouted in unison.
"Run thirty laps around the track!" Zefa shouted, and then he took the lead and ran off.
Seeing the kid's defiant expression, Zefa got itchy too; he couldn't stand it any longer! He decided to run fifty laps to work up a sweat.
When Nami finished running forty laps with Tang Fei, her fair and delicate face flushed slightly, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead. Although she had the physique of ten times that of an adult, she still felt tired after running sixteen kilometers at high intensity.
"Honey, if you're tired, take a rest first. I'll run a few dozen more laps, it'll be quick." Tang Fei said worriedly, looking at Nami's rosy cheeks.
"No need." Nami's competitive spirit couldn't help but surface. Tang Fei was still sickly yesterday, and he was exhausted after running ten laps. Was she going to collapse before him today?! No way!
Nami deeply hated her weak and powerless self. Was she going to be unable to protect her family again? No! She had to become stronger! She had to become even stronger!
Smoker, Hina, and Drake sprinted toward Nami and Tang Fei, as if to unleash all their energy.
Conserving energy? Those two newcomers have already run forty laps using sprinting speed. They've been in the elite training camp for months; jogging? They can't afford to lose face like that!
The other trainees shared the same mindset, but their physical abilities were far inferior to those of Hina, Smoker, and Drake, and they were quickly left behind by the three.
They ran with all their might, unwilling to give up, but before they had even finished one lap, they saw the new girl and boy rush past them from the outer edge of the track!
This caused them to subconsciously slow down their running pace considerably. Their eyes were fixed on the two of them as they quickly widened the distance between themselves and the two. This sense of powerlessness caused their fighting spirit to quickly subside, and their running pace returned to its normal speed, jogging.
Smoker, Hina, and Drake were looking for Nami and Tang Fei when they saw the two of them slowly walking alongside them, about to overtake them from the outer circle!
Closely following behind Tang Fei and Nami was Zephyr, who remained calm and collected, no matter how Tang Fei and Nami ran.
When the other trainees saw Hina, Smoker, and Drake, who consistently ranked in the top three of the elite training camp, standing side by side with the two new members, they clearly sensed that the atmosphere among the five of them had suddenly become much more tense.
Their eyes met, and it was as if lightning flashed between them; their fighting spirit reached its peak.
"If you're tired, take a break first. After I finish running forty laps, we'll have a race," the usually taciturn Drake suddenly said, his eyes fixed on Tang Fei and Nami.
"No need, I just finished warming up. A competition? That's too early to talk about. You might not even be able to keep up with me." After saying that, Tang Fei increased his speed again. He secretly took out a sacrificial gem with his left hand and held it tightly in his hand. The two sacrificial gems on his lower back were used up, and the sacrificial gems on his right hand were almost used up as well.
Upon hearing Tang Fei's domineering provocation, Hina, Smoker, and Drake blushed instantly. It wasn't because they were tired, but because they were angered by this boy who was younger than them.
"Hina is very angry, and the consequences will be severe!" Hina glared fiercely at Tang Fei's back, and her speed increased accordingly.
"Heh, that sounds nice!" Smoker sneered, his face also looking unpleasant, and followed closely behind.
Drake didn't say anything more, but silently quickened his pace, his eyes burning with fighting spirit like a raging fire.
Zephyr, who was following closely behind Tang Fei and Nami, naturally heard his domineering provocation, which made him smile with interest. It had been a long time since this batch of trainees had been so passionate.
Seeing the battle between Tang Fei, Nami, Hina, Smoker, and Drake, the other trainees couldn't help but quicken their pace.
Despite their quickening of pace, they couldn't prevent themselves from being overtaken and lapped by the five of them.
Finally, Zefa simply ordered them to assemble in the middle of the playground, preventing them from running around, because he thought they were in the way!
This result was a huge blow to them; they had been outmaneuvered by these five people ten times!
Zefa and the others watched quietly as Tang Fei and the other four competed against each other, neither giving an inch.
The students watching the battle were filled with admiration and awe for Tang Fei and Nami, not for any other reason than their indomitable spirit and strong physique.
Keep in mind that Nami and Tang Fei had already run forty laps! Yet they were still able to overtake Hina and the other two by a considerable distance!
Unbeknownst to them, Nami and Tang Fei were secretly using the Sacrifice Gem to reduce their physical fatigue and enhance their physical constitution!
