Urban Most Awesome Dad

Chapter 461: Chapter 461: Sandbag Assessment_1

Xu Fan remembered that last time he came, these team members couldn’t do a thousand push-ups, but now, ten days later, they had directly broken three thousand. This showed a huge improvement.

“Daddy, the big brothers’ postures look so strange,” Tongtong said, puzzled.

Upon hearing the childish voice, the War Wolf Squad members instinctively turned their heads to look over; after all, there would be no children in the base, except for Instructor Xu’s daughter.

Sure enough, Xu Fan was slowly walking over with a little girl in tow.

“Training halt, everyone up.”

Su Jingfeng had been waiting and quickly shouted out loud.

The entire squad stood up in unison, forming three ranks, their bodies as straight as javelins. Even as Xu Fan approached, they looked straight ahead, but their eyes were eager.

“Good day, Instructor!” Su Jingfeng bellowed.

The whole squad also shouted in unison: “Good day, Instructor.”

“Tongtong, the big brothers are exercising to get strong, and with a strong body, they can go catch the bad guys,” Xu Fan explained, unperturbed.

“Oh! The big brothers are awesome,” Tongtong said, clenching her little fist in praise, then added, “But Daddy is the strongest; no bad guy can stand against Daddy.”

“Tongtong is right…” Xu Fan was amused and couldn’t help but stroke her little head.

When they reached the crowd, Tongtong kept waving her small hand and politely greeted, “Hello, big brothers.”

Although military discipline was strict and no one dared to speak casually, all the team members showed sunny smiles. Truly, they had no resistance against this little cutie.

Xu Fan scanned the men, nodding slightly; everyone was spirited, and their physical fitness was also very good. It seemed they not only completed the training volume he had arranged but also did extra.

They were indeed spirited and deserved encouragement.

“Not bad.”

Xu Fan gave a grin, generous with His praise.

At these words, the taut strings in the squad’s hearts suddenly relaxed, their faces displaying excitement. It seemed that these two simple words were incredibly important to them, a sign of genuine recognition.

Xu Fan continued: “I know you have been training hard without slackening, which even surprises me. This state is very good; keep it up.”

“However, I must say beforehand, to be further taught the skills of the Martial Artist, one must meet the physical standards.” @@novelbin@@

“Now, I will begin the inspection. Is the entire team ready?”

The War Wolf Squad members exclaimed vigorously, “Instructor, we are ready!”

“Hmm, the spirit is indeed there,” Xu Fan nodded slightly. “Then let’s begin. Follow my command.”

“Yes, Instructor,” all team members responded in unison.

“Su Jingfeng, step out.”

“Yes.”

Su Jingfeng, with a stern face, jogged forward.

“Get someone, and bring over a sandbag from the rack, one hundred kilograms, understand?”

“Understood.”

Su Jingfeng turned around and gestured to the squad member “Xiao Dao,” and the two of them jogged toward the equipment area.

“Daddy, I’m going to play on the side. There’s so much sand here; I want to build Swallow Nests and castles,” Tongtong said, tugging at Xu Fan’s hem, speaking softly.

“Okay, be careful,” Xu Fan let go of her hand, and Tongtong ran joyously into the sandpit, scooping up the sand with both hands.

“Haha… Elder Xu, did I come at a good time?”

Suddenly, at the entrance of the training field, Lu Chenbing came in laughing heartily, striding in like a dragon and a tiger, wearing a rare police uniform for a change.

Xu Fan smiled and said, “Chen Bing, brother, you’re lucky, you arrived at just the right time.”

Lu Chenbing walked up to Xu Fan, nodded briefly to the team members, and clearing his throat, said: “The War Wolf Squad is all impressive. Don’t disappoint me today.”

“Yes, Captain!” The morale of the team members was high as they responded loudly.

Lu Chenbing’s face immediately lit up with anticipation.

After Su Jingfeng and Xiao Dao moved the sandbag to the training field and placed it on a specially designed metal frame, the two quickly rejoined the formation.

Xu Fan, with his Divine Sense, had already perceived that the contents of the sandbag were not ordinary sand or refined gravel, but iron sand, and its weight met the standard.

“Now, I’ll announce the assessment criteria. You will come forward in turn and strike the sandbag. Each person is only allowed one punch. If the sandbag swings up to ninety degrees, you pass the assessment.”

Using one fist to swing a hundred-kilogram sandbag up to ninety degrees, level with the horizontal bar of the metal frame—this was truly no ordinary feat.

You should know, ten days ago, Su Jingfeng could at most hit it to an angle of sixty or seventy degrees, and he is the deputy captain, the strongest person in the squad.

But Xu Fan’s requirement was for a minimum standard of ninety degrees.

If it had been ten days earlier, everyone would have found it unimaginable to meet such a devilish demand.

However, now they were not only undaunted but also eager to try, anxious to prove themselves.

Because.

They also wanted to know, just how much their strength could improve after ten days of near-devilish training.

“Is it that difficult? A hundred kilograms, wow.”

Lu Chenbing was a bit amazed, but his anticipation grew, “Listen to Instructor Xu’s command, step forward in turn and strike the sandbag. I, the captain, also want to see just how strong you have become now.”

“Su Jingfeng, you’re first. Set a good example.”

“Yes.” Su Jingfeng was brimming with energy. He rubbed his hands together in front of the sandbag and suddenly cracked a sly smile. He swung his right fist, which hurtled towards the sandbag like a cannonball.

If one paid close attention, one could see the veins in his right arm bulging, and his muscles appeared block-like, as if they were about to explode.

Instantly, the team members erupted into cheers.

After all, Su Jingfeng was the deputy captain and also acted as an assistant coach. His strength was naturally beyond reproach.

The punch he threw was powerful, imbued with explosive force, bursting force, shaking force, and pushing force. If that fist landed on a person, it probably could send them flying.

Lu Chenbing couldn’t help but nod in admiration. As an Ancient Martial Artist, he naturally saw more. Overall, even he wouldn’t dare to underestimate that punch.

With such a performance from Su Jingfeng, as his superior, it naturally was a proud moment.

Xu Fan watched calmly, expressionless, showing no reaction.

“Bang!”

With a dull thud, the iron-filled sandbag shook violently, shooting backwards and up, with the friction between the rope and the metal frame creating an intense “screeching” noise.

The sandbag swung to a height level with the horizontal bar and, with momentum to spare, continued to swing higher.

In the end, the angle formed exceeded one hundred and thirty-five degrees.

Lu Chenbing watched joyfully and couldn’t resist clapping in praise, “Very good, you’ve trained hard, my boy. Such great progress makes even me a little envious.”

Indeed, to make such noticeable progress in just ten days, anyone would be willing.

“Hahaha…” Su Jingfeng laughed heartily, feeling extremely exhilarated.

Then, he looked towards Xu Fan, waiting for his evaluation.

“Passed,” Xu Fan stated briefly, but he saw much more in that punch.

If they only wanted to test the strength of their punches, they could completely use a punch force meter. One punch and the precise strength would be clear at a glance.

Xu Fan’s goal was, through this one punch, to observe their form, sense their intention, and perceive their spirit. In the instant they mobilized their full body strength, he sought to ascertain their physical strength.

Although it was just one punch, what Xu Fan saw was their level of control over their full body strength and the coordination of every part of their body.

And Su Jingfeng’s performance was undoubtedly excellent, earning Xu Fan’s approval.
