"Next, I will show you the one-thousand-meter running score of the last admitted candidates - three minutes and thirty-nine seconds."
"That is, the passing mark for this exam is three minutes and thirty-nine seconds!"
Not only Su Ji and Pang Chao, but also several other people who saw this scene were so shocked that their hearts skipped a beat at this moment.
Because almost everyone in the class knew that Pang Chao's 1,000-meter performance was hard to describe.
Three minutes and thirty-nine seconds!
This is already a score that can reach over 80%!
Despair gradually welled up in his heart, and Pang Chao gave up resistance completely.
Pang Chao sniffed loudly, and then his eyes suddenly turned red.
"It's over..."
Her fleshy little face was actually trembling, and her voice became trembling.
This posture frightened the others.
"Brother, don't be like this." Lan Wentao was not very good at comforting people. Seeing Pang Chao's appearance, he felt helpless, "You can't help crying like this!"
"Don't say such depressing words, silly dog." Su Ji put her hands on Pang Chao's shoulders and said in a serious tone, "You won't die."
Everyone gathered around and comforted Pang Chao.
"It's okay, you don't need to comfort me."
Pang Chao smiled faintly, waved his hands and said:
"Actually, I've been mentally prepared for it for a long time...it's just that it's still a little hard to accept for a while."
After taking a deep breath, he smiled slightly, and the expression on his face suddenly became firm: "Come on, who is afraid of whom? The tortoise is afraid of the hammer!"
"Candidate No. 4, please come up and take the one-thousand-meter running test!"
The radio voice gave the order.
There is no other way.
Under the worried eyes of everyone, Pang Chao, who had calmed down a little, stood on the track and started his exam.
At the beginning, everything seemed normal and calm.
However, when the first lap was almost over, Pang Chao began to show fatigue.
His stride length and frequency have slowed down significantly, and his breathing has become heavier.
Sweat was constantly dripping from his forehead and flowing down his cheeks like a waterfall.
And when Pang Chao had just completed one and a half laps, the huge timer in the sky in the center of the playground had already exceeded three minutes and thirty-nine seconds.
The five people sitting below were silent in unison.
Although no one said anything, everyone knew in their hearts that this project was over.
But they could do nothing but silently feel sorry for Pang Chao.
Being eliminated at this last step is really a very disappointing thing.
They just looked at Pang Chao quietly.
Watch as the little fat man slows down little by little.
"Pang Chao, don't run away!"
When Pang Chao passed by the sidelines, Liu Yiyi saw him panting and running with a painful look on his face, so she shouted to him:
"The exam is over. Come down and take a rest!"
But Pang Chao just waved his hand casually and did not stop running.
Although the expression on his face was really painful, his cheeks were flushed red, and the sweat on his head was flowing like a waterfall.
The running posture has also begun to become more and more outrageous, and has gradually begun to develop in the direction of strange walking.
[Mr. Shu Lao is right, in this world, human beings' joys and sorrows are not the same. 】
[Everyone thinks that this little fat man wearing a mask of pain is struggling desperately, but they don’t know that he is actually running freely and happily. 】
【Do you think he really just wants to win?】
【Oh, you really got it right!】
[Although the person he wants to win is just himself who never persists to the end.]
…
that's all.
Pang Chao gasped for breath and moved slowly but steadily towards the finish line step by step.
No matter how you look at it, under the current situation, there is indeed no need for Pang Chao to persist any longer.
Because no matter whether you pass or fail in the end, the result is actually the same.
But this stubborn little fat man seemed to have never had such an idea at all.
That look reminded Su Ji of a song that the radio station often played in high school:
"I want to climb step by step……"
Now it looks like he really looks like that snail carrying a heavy shell...
Several people sitting on the lawn near the finish line all stopped talking in a tacit agreement.
They just watched quietly as Pang Chao got closer and closer, and finally crossed the finish line in five minutes and forty-six seconds.
Su Ji stood up and stepped onto the track.
He walked towards Pang Chao and supported him.
This guy had already lost half of his life by running a thousand meters. If Su Ji hadn't stepped forward, he would have fainted on the spot.
Pang Chao was holding Su Ji, his legs were a little weak uncontrollably, and almost half of his body weight was pressing on the latter.
Little Fatty didn't exercise much when he was studying, and even less so after graduation.
He couldn't run a thousand meters originally, but no one could withstand the sudden violent exercise.
"Aji, did you see it? I ran the whole place!"
This was the first sentence Pang Chao couldn't wait to say after his breathing calmed down.
"I saw it, everyone saw it." Su Ji said.
Pang Chao's face was filled with a smile, and then gradually disappeared: "Ah Ji, don't I look stupid?"
"A little bit." Su Ji nodded, "But quite manly...really."
"Yes, yes, I think so too."
Pang Chao grinned and smiled, "You also know that in my three years of high school and four years of college, I have never completed the entire one-thousand-meter race."
"But today, in this evil place, grandma, I, Pang Chao, did it!"
Su Ji only felt that her shoulders were pinched by Pang Chao. The little fat man became more and more excited as he spoke. His face was full of pride that Su Ji had never seen before:
"Aji, I didn't know until today..."
"It turns out that although I have never been an outstanding person, I am far from being as bad as I thought..."
"What a pity..."
"If I could do everything I did in the past with all my strength like I did just now, then my boring and fragmented life would definitely be more exciting than it is now."
Hey, hey, hey... The corners of Su Ji's mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times.
Damn it, now doesn’t seem like the time to suddenly write a sensational essay on life, right?
With the suffocating and depressing atmosphere around her, Su Ji didn't know how to respond to Pang Chao's words.
With his talkative nature, he was really afraid that if he wasn't careful, a hellish joke would come out of his mouth that would heal people's hearts.
But looking into Pang Chao's eyes, those serious eyes didn't seem to be forcing a smile.
Su Ji suddenly felt her nose was a little sore.
Although he knew very well in his heart that he was not a particularly emotional person, the failure penalty in [Twilight Campus] was not necessarily a fatal spiritual fire, and Pang Chao might not really die.
But for some reason, he just felt a little sad for no reason.
In this life, how many good brothers can we borrow and wear underwear?
Of course Su Ji never borrowed underwear from Pang Chao.
The little fat guy's fat buttocks are really too big, and their sizes don't fit at all.
but……
If there really is.
Not to mention underwear, even if it was a treasury, this little fat man would probably lend it to him without hesitation.
"Anyway..."
Pang Chao squinted his eyes and smiled, "Ah Ji, it's nice to meet you."
So is there really no other way?
Su Ji clenched her fists subconsciously.
The brain started to work at high speed.
Suddenly, Su Ji recalled something.
"Don't say words like farewell."
Su Ji sighed and said, "I heard enough during last year's graduation season..."
"If you are a brother, please live a good life for me...how can you bite me if you are not alive!"
Su Ji took out the [God Test Badge] from the inventory and handed it to Pang Chao.
"This is……?"
Pang Chao was a little confused.
"Don't ask so many questions." Su Ji said in a deep voice, "Put it on."
