Elephant Devouring Technique

Mo Shi then looking at his this body.

Mo Shi "You will not be starved in military."

Mo Shi "You go and get bathed and change to the fresh uniform."

Mo Shi "You should check the first technique of the Company manual."

Mo Shi "You should learn that technique as soon as possible." saying that he left.

As Huang Tian entered inside there was huge room there. There was a flag in the center, with a symbol of eagle in it and under it there was number 21 written. there were around 50 beds in the room each numbered. Huang Tian checked the badge given to him there was similar characters on front of the badge and below it there was number 1 written on it.

Huang Tian thought it meant his bed distribution and occupied the bed number 1 of the yard. It was right beside the squad personal training yard. It was a huge ground covering more than couple miles both sides.

Huang Tian "This is just personal training area of this squad." he tried to estimate how big main drill grounds would be.

Huang Tian immediately familiarized himself with the area and then bathed himself and got rid of his old clothes donning fresh uniforms of the Company.

All the recruits wear yellow colored uniform. Then Huang Tian emptied the sack given to him, to check all the contents inside it.

There were four pairs of uniforms inside it, then there were couple of daggers and few hard ware equipment , including ropes and tent equipment. There were few mattresses, wheat stone and equipment to lit fire. Huang Tian immediately got himself familiar with all equipment. Then he placed them properly according to his convenience. Then he took the Eagle Manual, which was a mandatory training manual. It was the thickest book he has ever seen. Then as ordered by the Squad leader he decided to study the first technique in the book.

"Elephant Devouring Technique."

It was a training exercise that influences stomach muscles, its main influence is in digesting the food and increasing the intake of food. Food is the primary source of energy for the Body refiners, unlike Cultivators who intake energy directly from the surroundings, body refiners rely on their food. So, it is considered stronger the refiner is larger he eats. So, it was essential for them to have a technique to digest food. This elephant devouring technique allows one to eat and digest more than ten tonnes of food in one sitting. Well it was when one practices it to perfection.

There were total 18 stances in this exercise and Huang Tian slowly got himself familiarized with all the stances. It didn't take him long to practice them with out manual. All the stances were memorized.

It took him more than three hours to get familiar with the technique. It was already evening as he practiced the technique freely.

Just as he finished the exercise he heard foot steps of someone entering the compound. It was squad leader Mo.

Mo Shi "I see, you are able to understand the essence of the technique. Good, I don't have to teach it to you in particular."

Mo Shi "Come lets go, it is time for your dinner."

Huang Tian "Yes, squad leader."

Mo Shi "There would be four meals a day here. You will have your first meals immediately after you wake up. It would be provided my the company. Your second meals will be after your squad training and third will be after your second squad training. The last meal of the day is up to you."

Huang Tian was confused hearing this.

Mo Shi smiled and responded "You have to hunt for your last meals. There is a hunting ground in the camp where you will hunt your prey and bring it for your dinner. That would be your last and important meals."

Mo Shi "Training squads are not required to hunt until the first evaluation. After the first evaluation you have to depend on yourself."

Mo Shi brought Huang Tian to the hall where everyone are eating. He took Huang Tian to the the second floor where food was already arranged. He saw few older soldiers in below floor who were eating silently not bothering about anything.

Mo Shi "This one is newbie." Mo Shi spoke to some one introducing Huang Tian.

"It is strange, I though you get newbies only after the end of recruitment."

Mo Shi "This guy is special, he aced every round and choose to join the company."

The fat chef looked at Huang Tian strangely and then "I am fatty Mo, your squad leader is my little brother."

Huang Tian was surprised hearing this then responded "Huang Tian greets senior ."

Fatty Mo " You look so small for the one who aced the entrance exam.How old are you?"

Huang Tian "I am 14 years old senior."

Fatty Mo "14 years and already able to clear all the entrance tests. Seeing your appearance no one will believe you." he said laughing loudly.

Mo Shi "Fatty, you have already laughed enough, we are hungry."

Fatty Mo gave a bit pat on Mo Shi and then went inside bringing two huge treys.

Fatty Mo "I brought Hunting goat for little Tian and Bison for useless Mo."

Fatty Mo said keeping both of them in front of each of them. Then he brought two gourds to both of them.

Fatty Mo "This is special wine made by blood of demonic bests and their marrows and more than hundred herbs it is very beneficial to your body. "

Mo Shi was not surprised at this.

Mo Shi " Little Tian this is standard issue, it will be supplied for your last meals. That is why no one misses their last meals at any cost."

Then Mo Shi started eating his fill. Huang Tian observed Mo Shi for few minutes and then started imitating him.

If not for supreme Huang's memories, Huang Tian would have been in awe to know there are techniques even for eating. In Huang family body refiners relied on special medicines and high level demonic beasts. Here it is different, here system is to completely utilize everything they eat. It would be too troublesome and costly affair to provide everyone with such costly medicines and food.

Huang Tian felt he was eating ten times more than what he used to previously, ignoring the fact that he was starving for around a month. What little he ate was provided by the guards at front gate.

Huang Tian ate half the Hunting Goat. He felt he will not be able to eat any more.

Huang Tian felt awkward at this situation.

Fatty Mo was laughing seeing the awkward expressions of Little Tian " Little Tian, there is nothing to be ashamed of there are many who will not be able to eat completely. Take it with you and eat it when you are hungry. Since training is not started you will get only two meals a day."

Huang Tian was relieved hearing this and thanked Fatty Mo and then taking permission from Squad leader Mo he left to his bunker.

As soon as he reached the bunker he felt very tired he placed the remaining portion of food on his utensils and then went to laid on the bed and felt asleep immediately.

Mo Shi "Greetings Captain!"

Captain Bai "What is he doing?"

Mo Shi "He was sleeping from last five days. He woke up once in between he ate and then again fell asleep." he replied obediently.

Mo Shi "I checked his condition, he is alright all vitals are perfect and he is regaining at very fast rate. He was able to digest everything he ate. His muscles are regrowing and blood was forming in rapid pace."

Captain Bai "It is good then. I guess he will be able to regain his original stature by the time other recruits come."

Mo Shi "Yes, captain." he then paused for a moment ..

Captain "Ask?"

Mo Shi "Why are you so concerned about that kid? You are not treating him like normal recruit."

Captain Bai " No, there is no other connection between us. He is a very good recruit and a great prospect."

Captain Bai "You know it has exactly been a month, since his family was massacred, he traveled nearly thousand miles on his foot without anyone protecting him and starving himself to death."

Captain Bai "Even a fully grown adult will die if placed in same situation. He held onto his life with his fist, determined to live and find safety. He never relaxed even for a minute the whole time."

Captain Bai "Such a prospect already exceeded every limit that our camp can set. Now all left is to mold him so that he will be useful to us."

Mo Shi "He will be a great soldier for our country?"

Captain Bai "I am seeing a future commander in him."

Captain Bai "We need him in his best state. So, it is your responsibility to keep him in best shape and loyal to our company."

Mo Shi "Best shape?"

Captain Bai "He should wield his saber again."

Mo Shi face was embarrassed a bit hearing this.

Mo Shi "Captain, I was observing him from the moment he received saber, he didn't touch it even once. It was exactly how it was before, it hung on the back of his armor, exactly the way Yan Yong placed it.
