The next day.
In the early morning, the newly joined recruits were rudely awakened by the reveille.
A group of them instinctively put on their clothes, but it wasn’t until they were halfway dressed or had run out the door that they realized—
They had the day off!
It was the veteran soldiers who were supposed to be training.
Most of the recruits were quick to roll back into their bunks to continue their lazy slumber.
In the female soldiers’ dormitory building, Dormitory 307.
Four of them, neatly dressed, were getting ready to leave.
Stepping out, Flossie Wright caught sight of Becca Reyes coming out of the neighboring room.
"Hey, quite in sync, huh?"
Becca Reyes waved at them and came straight over.
Mariana Buck and Jessie Grain, together, had no intention of mingling with them and turned to leave.
Flossie Wright and Belinda Nichols were a step slower, waiting for Becca Reyes to approach.
"What shall we train on first?"
As she drew near, Becca Reyes smiled brightly, flexing her fingers.
"Follow."

Flossie Wright simply answered, her hands shoved into her pockets, quickly heading toward the staircase.
At first, Becca Reyes didn’t quite understand the brevity of the instruction.
It wasn’t until she descended the stairs that she figured out the general idea.
They were to move with the veteran soldiers.
"But we have the day off today."
Realizing this, Becca Reyes frowned with a sense of resignation and spoke to Flossie Wright.
Looking at Flossie Wright’s demeanor, she guessed it’d be a whole day of exertion.
Becca Reyes was completely unprepared for this.
By her reckoning, the intensity of the training shouldn’t be greater than what they’d endured during the new recruit selection, but judging by the veterans’ training load, it seemed it would be doubled.
Just thinking about it felt like a daunting challenge.
Such a pity for their hard-earned day off.
"Don’t want to give it a try?"
Looking at her, Flossie Wright raised an eyebrow.
"Well..." Dragging out her voice purposely, Becca Reyes spread her hands with a look of eagerness in her eyes, "Actually, I really want to."
On one hand, she was genuinely daunted by the training intensity for the official members, but on the other hand, she was really curious to see how she measured up against the veteran soldiers.
Between the two, the choice was easy, wasn’t it?
She had endured so many days of training; why fear just one more?
"Let’s go."
As she saw the veteran soldiers take off, Flossie Wright shrugged her shoulders and followed without hesitation.
Belinda Nichols followed closely behind.
"Alrighty!"
Lifting her voice, Becca Reyes flexed her ankle and quickly sprinted to catch up with the other two.
The morning workout included two five-kilometer runs, five five-hundred-meter sprints, rock climbing, and horizontal traversal with ropes.
The veteran soldiers seemed used to the routine, and even though they were all drenched in sweat after a round, none of them collapsed at the canteen like Becca Reyes did.
"Are we going to train like this tomorrow?"
Slumped over the dining table, Becca Reyes asked weakly and tiredly as she ate her Steamed Buns.
"Probably."
Flossie Wright replied indifferently to her.
There was no need to think about it; such a level of training would undoubtedly include them.
"Ah, feels like I’m going to be remolded, bones and muscles alike."
Becca Reyes shook her head, making an effort to sit up straighter.
This time, neither Flossie Wright nor Belinda Nichols responded.
Just as Becca Reyes had put it, they would need to be "remolded."
Passing the new recruit selection only proved that they qualified to be Frogmen, but whether they could endure here and become outstanding Frogmen was not something to be decided at the moment.
