Chapter 588: Chapter 342: Showcasing Potential, Astonishing All_2
At this moment, the muscular man retracted his fist, glanced at the strength parameters displayed on the device, and couldn’t help but show a smile on his face.
Then he turned his head and looked in Ye Feng’s direction.
"My friend, you’ve sure made quite the claim! But don’t worry, I happen to know some insider information. The strength tester model can withstand up to 80 tons of force."
"So, not only us, even those at the Fourth Order Peak could easily be withstood by it," said the muscular man with an interested look at Ye Feng.
Clearly, he had heard what Ye Feng just said and was now purely here to see the spectacle.
Ye Feng seemed completely oblivious to the teasing tone of the other party and instead turned to a staff member nearby, asking for confirmation, "This strength tester can really withstand 80 tons of force?"
"That’s correct!" The staff member nodded, but his look towards Ye Feng was a bit strange.
What is he doing, is he actually worried about breaking the device?
After getting confirmation, Ye Feng nodded his head. Since he had come to compete, he never intended to be low key.
Under the gaze of everyone, he slowly raised his fist, not bothering with any sort of charging up, and directly threw a straightforward punch.
Ye Feng, who experienced high-intensity combat every night and had perfect control over his body with his spiritual power, launched the punch with precisely 80 tons of force.
Boom!
The instant Ye Feng’s fist collided with the strength tester, the air around that area seemed to explode, transforming into a terrifying shockwave that swept all around.
The special rubber designed to absorb force, along with the metal inside it, instantly caved in, and the force-dispersion device was promptly pressed to the bottom.
But such terrifying force couldn’t possibly be dissipated in an instant; the nuts securing the device broke apart one after another, and finally, the device, together with the metal floor beneath it, flew into the air and slammed heavily into a nearby wall.
The terrifying scene unfolding before their eyes left everyone dumbfounded, the crowd seemed to have turned to stone.
Gulp!
The robust man who had come to enjoy the show swallowed hard, struggling to speak, not knowing what to say.
"Wow! Big Pot, you’re so amazing!" Ye Rou said with a beaming smile, jumping up and down.
Pride that could not be concealed adorned the faces of Ye Xiangfeng and Wang Shuwen.
Li Huosheng, who followed alongside, finally understood why his boss was so courteous towards Ye Feng after witnessing this scene.
As for Ye Feng himself, looking at the now-damaged equipment, then at the staff nearby,
he spread his hands in a somewhat helpless gesture and said, "My attack just now truly only had 80 tons of force; it’s your data that’s inaccurate, not my fault."
The already wide-open mouths of the onlookers dropped even further.
What does this mean?
Could it be that this level of force hasn’t reached his limit, and was actually him deliberately controlling his output?
Now recalling Ye Feng’s initial words, no one felt he was arrogant anymore; instead, they saw him as humble and polite.
"Ah haha! Of course, we don’t blame you. It’s our fault for not installing it properly," Zhao Bing, the person in charge, was the first to recover and hurried over with a laugh.
His most important task here was to select talented individuals. And what defines talent? The person right in front of him was a prime example.
In comparison, a strength tester really didn’t matter. He wished that more talents like this would come and smash all the remaining testers.
Seeing how accommodating the other party was, Ye Feng also felt a bit embarrassed and said, "How much does it cost? How about I pay half?"
"No worries, no worries," Zhao Bing waved his hand, "It’s all on us. We didn’t provide adequate facilities and even failed to allow you to test your full strength."
He turned to the staff member beside him and said, "Record this, this gentleman’s strength is tentatively set at over 80 tons, I will report the specifics later."
"Understood!" The staff responsible for recording snapped out of their shock and quickly began to make a note.
Zhao Bing then gestured towards Ye Feng with an inviting hand motion, "Please come this way for the basic speed test. I don’t know if you have any special requirements for our equipment, but if you feel that it can’t measure your full strength, you can mention it and we will make immediate alterations."
"No need, this is quite good," Ye Feng quickly replied.
The equipment for testing basic speed was very simple, so simple in fact that it was essentially just two touch devices.
These two touch devices were placed at either end of a running track.
Since it is an indoor track, it was only 20 meters in length. The tester was required to run back and forth on this not-so-long track; therefore, one round trip would be 40 meters.
The requirement was to run back and forth five times, covering a total distance of 200 meters, and then to calculate the speed based on the time taken.
It’s worth mentioning that this type of shuttle run, for a Third Order Evolutionist, is like having to slow down just after starting and then turning back again.
Therefore, the test not only measures sheer speed but also tests explosive power, turning ability, and the degree of control over one’s own strength.
Ye Feng came up to the track.
Zhao Bing personally turned on the timer for Ye Feng and said, "The moment you touch this button, the timing will automatically start. Whenever you’re ready, you can begin at any time."
"Okay," Ye Feng said, and without much preparation, he reached out and touched the button.
The moment he pressed it, the timer’s lights instantly lit up. Ye Feng, who had been quite casual until that point, suddenly burst forward with an incredible speed toward the touch device at the other end of the track.
Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked by the terrifying speed Ye Feng demonstrated, and they were somewhat worried that he wouldn’t be able to slow down in time and would crash into the touch device at the other end.
In an instant, Ye Feng, who had covered the 20-meter distance, had his leg muscles swell slightly, then bent his legs like a bow and stamped heavily on the floor.
At the same time, he rotated his legs and twisted his waist, and it seemed as if the inertia from his forward momentum was all gathered in his legs.
The very next moment, Ye Feng exerted force in his legs, transforming the momentum of his charge into rebounding force, and his figure shot back with undiminished velocity, resembling a cannonball.
And in that process, he still had the time to stretch out his hand and lightly press the touch button again.
Before their very eyes, people watched as Ye Feng shuttled back and forth at an astonishing speed between the two touch devices, as if defying scientific principles.
Whoosh!
In just a second, Ye Feng finished the test, running the entire 200 meters.
Throughout the whole process, he seemed completely at ease, and indeed he was, for he had only unleashed the speed of a Fourth Order Peak.
But even so, for those present, it was still spectacular enough to shock and awe.
Especially Zhao Bing, who knew that Ye Feng was not only fast but also possessed terrifying strength.
With the combination of these two attributes, Ye Feng could directly annihilate his peers in the same order and even fight across different orders with no issues.
At this moment, Zhao Bing’s gaze upon Ye Feng carried the awe of witnessing a rising star.
The other party might just be the second Chen Dalong. Without getting into specifics, just by discovering a talent like Ye Feng, he had made a significant contribution.
Not to mention that by taking advantage of this opportunity, he could curry favor with Ye Feng. If Ye Feng indeed rose in prominence later, it would be an extremely profitable arrangement for him.
Thinking this, he immediately walked over and took the form from the hands of a staff member nearby, personally filling in Ye Feng’s results.
"Mr. Ye, congratulations on achieving an S+ grade in both strength and speed, successfully passing the preliminary selection. Now, you can..." Zhao Bing began, but then suddenly stopped as he stared at a line written on the form.
He swallowed hard and couldn’t help but ask, "You are also a Superhuman?"
