Chapter 87: 【87】Has your face been slapped until it’s swollen?_1
Xu Xinling was also startled by Tang Feng’s score; she quickly walked over, reached out to touch his forehead, and then pried open his mouth to look inside.
Tang Feng hurriedly pushed her hand away, “What are you doing? Checking out a mule?”
Xu Xinling looked at him curiously. “I suspect you’re a robot, how can you be so strong?”
Tang Feng rolled his eyes. “Do you see clearly now?”
Xu Xinling nodded, “Clear enough. You do look quite human.”
Why did Tang Feng feel like this phrase was so awkward?
What did ‘look quite’ mean?
He was indeed human!
However, he also felt that his body, modified by the system, was excessively strong.
In the past, he could do push-ups until he was worn out, managing barely twenty or thirty at most.
Now the number had increased more than tenfold.
He felt that if he were to exert his full strength, he could do at least over 500.
Such physical ability was a bit monstrous.
However, on second thoughts, this was the physical strength he got from spending 10 million to upgrade, so the effect seemed reasonable.
Niu Zhuangzhuang looked at him with a complicated expression and then wanted to log out and leave in a desolated mood.
Seeing this, Xu Xinling immediately yelled out, “What’s wrong? Scared now? Aren’t you some gold-medal coach, the city champion? Is this all you can do?”
She was the vindictive type; even though she had made Niu Zhuangzhuang swallow his pride twice, she still couldn’t forget how arrogant he was when he first arrived.
Niu Zhuangzhuang could only withdraw his hand grudgingly. “Who is scared? I… I just have a bit of a stomach ache.”
Xu Xinling’s voice carried a hint of mocking, “Is it your stomach that’s uncomfortable, or your face? Looks like it’s about to swell up, huh?”
Niu Zhuangzhuang glared at her unhappily, “Girl, watch your words, whose face has swollen up? If you’re brave enough, let’s continue.”
Xu Xinling instigated the battle once again, turned around, and patted Tang Feng on the shoulder, “Keep crushing him; you don’t need to save face for me.”
Tang Feng was immediately speechless.
Why did it feel like she had done all the bragging, and he had taken all the blame?
Nonetheless, he hadn’t been deliberately competing with Niu Zhuangzhuang but was simply testing at his own pace.
However, each of his results just happened to clash with Niu Zhuangzhuang’s.
Sit-up test:
Niu Zhuangzhuang: 292.
Tang Feng: 501!
Grip strength test:
Niu Zhuangzhuang: 82 kg.
Tang Feng: 186 kg!
Stationary running test:
Niu Zhuangzhuang: 57 per minute.
Tang Feng: 149 per minute!
…
In each test, his scores were at least more than double that of Niu Zhuangzhuang’s.
Keep in mind that Niu Zhuangzhuang’s physical abilities were already more than double that of an average person.
Which meant that Tang Feng’s data was at least four times that of an ordinary person.
Everyone present was so astonished that their eyeballs were nearly popping out.
No one expected this seemingly frail guy to have such freakish physical abilities.
Even Mr. Niu was completely outclassed.
Niu Zhuangzhuang felt even more embarrassed, as he had intended to show off in front of the trainees but ended up practically losing face.
If he didn’t quickly make a comeback, he wouldn’t have the face to continue being a coach.
Luckily, the last item was the strength test.
This was his forte.
This kid might have the advantage in jumping and agility, but in terms of strength, he certainly couldn’t match him.
A person’s strength is proportional to their weight.
The heavier the body weight, the greater the corresponding strength, which is why official boxing matches are divided by weight classes.
One of his arms was thicker than this kid’s thigh. If he lost in terms of strength, he might as well die by smashing his head into tofu.
As he was secretly strategizing, the testing machine began prompting for the last test.
He took a deep breath, slowly walked up to the Force Tester, and with all his might, threw a punch.
“Bang!”
His punch landed heavily on the Force Tester, and then the numbers on the big screen began to jump rapidly.
Finally, they stopped at 285 kg.
“Hiss…”
All the trainees on-site gasped as if they had felt the punch themselves.
“Truly worthy of being Mr. Niu, that punch was 285 kg, so impressive.”
“It’s my first time here; is 285 kg impressive?”
“What do you mean ‘is it impressive’? Could you please drop the ‘is it’? 285 kg is seriously awesome. The boxing world champion Tyson can only hit about 400 kg.”
“How come I heard Tyson could punch 800 kg?”
“That’s a rumor gone wild; it should be over 800 pounds. The human skeletal limit is 500 kg; any punch over 500 kg, before worrying if it could kill someone, would first shatter the person’s own bones into pieces.”
“So that means Mr. Niu is really impressive…”
Some newbies, upon hearing explanations from others, suddenly admired Niu Zhuangzhuang to the point of prostration.
Mr. Niu was only about 100 kg away from the world boxing champion, which was pretty damn impressive.
Niu Zhuangzhuang wore a smug smile and provocatively tilted his chin at Tang Feng.
He figured his punch was enough to scare the kid pissless.
Xu Xinling glanced at the numbers on his screen and couldn’t help swallowing, “Boss, I’m suddenly feeling a bit hungry. Let’s go out to eat something,” she said, while tugging on Tang Feng’s arm.
She had also tested her strength before and her highest record was a bit over 80 kg—nowhere near Niu Zhuangzhuang’s dust.
And Tang Feng was not much stronger than her; at most, he could probably punch slightly over 100 kg, which would be quite embarrassing.
Since he had already crushed Niu Zhuangzhuang with the previous data, it was probably best to quit while ahead.
But Tang Feng seemed not to grasp her intent and looked eager to try, “I want to give it a try.”
Xu Xinling immediately facepalmed, coming up with an excuse, “These tests aren’t very accurate. I know a gym nearby where they measure more accurately.”
As she spoke, she tried to log Tang Feng out of his account.
Niu Zhuangzhuang instantly seized the opportunity to jeer, “What’s wrong? Did my punch scare you off? If you’re too scared to test, then get lost already.”
Tang Feng glanced at him but said nothing, heading straight to the Force Tester and smashed his fist into it.
The numbers on the big screen began to roll quickly.
Whoosh!
“398 kg!”
