The next day, Jiang Ning arrived at the Four Gates Square early in the morning.
However, the sky had yet to brighten, and only one or two people had come out of the five thousand people.
Jiang Ning didn't blame those who didn't come. He welcomed Chu Chen and trained here. What he practiced wasn't some profound cultivation technique, but some basic fist, leg, and palm techniques.
Martial arts was based on diligence. Although basic martial arts did not have any profound mysteries, all martial arts in the world were multiplied by basic martial arts. Therefore, the theory of martial arts went from simple to complex, and finally from complex to simple.
Nine Beyond the Swords was like this. It went from a simple sword technique to an extremely profound sword technique, and finally from the profound sword technique to the simplest sword technique.
Simple, simple, complex, complex
There were only benefits to strengthening one's foundation skills.
Just like that, time slowly passed by. After two hours, when the golden sun fell on Jiang Ning, nearly 2,000 out of the 5,000 people had arrived. Many of them were also practicing martial arts like Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning did this to lead the way. He wanted everyone to receive training, so he had to be like everyone else. He had to eat the same food and drink the same thing. Everyone was cultivating, and he was cultivating too. He definitely could not covet wealth. Only then would they be willing.
Another hour passed, and all five thousand people had arrived. In the empty square, Jiang Ning was sweating profusely. He didn't wipe the sweat off his body and looked at the group of people with a serious expression.
"Everyone, you're up quite early."
There was a hint of anger in his words, and many people felt fear in their hearts.
"However, I didn't tell you what time to come yesterday, so you're late. I'll let it go this time, but from now on, you must come here before dawn every day.”
Jiang Ning said loudly, and the five thousand people heard him clearly.
"We understand."
The five thousand people shouted in unison, their voices deafening.
"Alright, since you already know, I won't say anything more. Now, go to the Resource Hall. There are some sacks filled with sand. Listen carefully to what I say next. Everyone go and carry sandbags. You'll be rewarded with one gold coin for each bag, and two gold coins for each bag.”
Jiang Ning said. After he finished speaking, the group of people did not hesitate at all and quickly walked towards the Resource Hall.
This was the benefit of credibility. Jiang Ning had established her credibility, so they would not doubt Jiang Ning's words.
After the time for an incense stick to burn, many people were carrying sandbags. On average, each person carried two to three sandbags. Each sandbag weighed fifty pounds. For martial artists, although it was not easy, it was not very strenuous.
Some even carried five or six sandbags for the sake of money and gold.
After everyone returned, Jiang Ning nodded with satisfaction and said,""Very good, very good. Now, let's begin the real devil training. Everyone, carry the sandbag on your back. I will send someone to supervise you. Moreover, you have to supervise each other. There will be rewards for reporting. From now on, they would run for four hours and rest for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. Each break would be one lap. The last hundred people in each lap would be heavily punished, and the fastest would be heavily rewarded.”
The moment he said that, the entire place erupted into an uproar.
They didn't expect that carrying a sandbag meant running. Running for a long time was already a little tiring, let alone running in one breath. Wasn't this killing?
Many people were complaining, and some were even indignant. Of course, there were also some who were secretly happy because they did not get many sandbags.
"All of you, be quiet."
Jiang Ning shouted. He wanted to maintain his silence and maintain his dignity.
"I'm doing this to let you know that you have to do everything within your means. Every choice you make may affect your lives, so I'll teach you a lesson. However, in order to maintain fairness, I'll carry ten sandbags each and run with you without using inner strength.”
Jiang Ning said. Then, as expected, she carried ten sandbags and started running.
Since Jiang Ning had taken the lead, no one dared to act rashly in an instant. Everyone followed behind. Although some were unwilling, they still followed in the end.
Carrying a 500 jin sandbag on his back was indeed a little taxing. Because he did not use his inner strength, it was uncomfortable.
However, his strong willpower made Jiang Ning's expression calm. He tried his best to keep his breathing even so that he could reduce his stamina.
An hour later, some people could not hold on any longer and were secretly resting. Jiang Ning did not care. He walked on his own. He had already arranged for Anne to get someone to monitor these people. Whoever was lazy and who was resting would be recorded clearly.
Jiang Ning believed that Anne would not let her down.
Two hours later, Jiang Ning was also on the verge of collapse. He was covered in sweat, but he still continued to walk forward. He was the first person, so he walked at the very front. He maintained an average speed, neither slow nor fast.
The rest of them maintained a slow pace, which was the best way to reduce their stamina.
An hour later, Jiang Ning's speed had also slowed down a lot. This was indeed very uncomfortable. With the weight of 500 Jin on his body, without using his inner strength, he was sweating profusely and breathing heavily as he walked.
His speed was already very slow, but someone had already surpassed him. This person was carrying two sandbags and was drenched in sweat. When he turned around to look at Jiang Ning, the excitement in his eyes instantly turned into respect.
"Brothers, Governor Jiang carried ten bags without using any inner strength. We only carried one or two bags. There's nothing to be proud of. Those brothers who want to slack off, let me tell you now.”
He was touched by Jiang Ning's actions. He thought that Jiang Ning was high and mighty and would definitely not suffer. However, when he saw Jiang Ning's twisted face, red eyes, and rain-like sweat dripping onto the ground, he was completely convinced by Jiang Ning.
What was a master? A true master was not only powerful, but more importantly, he had a heart of martial arts. A heart of martial arts that could not be destroyed after thousands of tempering.
"Governor-General Jiang, I'll be leaving first."
He seemed to understand something as he looked at Jiang Ning and said.
"Get lost!"
Jiang Ning roared loudly, exhaling as he laughed and cursed.
"Hahahaha!"
The other party also laughed and ran forward quickly.
When many people saw this scene, they were all convinced by Jiang Ning. This kind of boldness made them understand what a martial artist was and what an expert was.
"Governor-General Jiang, I'll be leaving first."
"Governor-General Jiang, I'll be leaving first."
One by one, they overtook Jiang Ning and shouted.
"All of you, get lost. What are you arguing about?"
Jiang Ning laughed and scolded, and these people also laughed heartily.
This was a martial artist, this was a man!
Tempered thousands of times, don't destroy my heart!
