Chapter 543 - 536: Fill It to the Max
Chapter 543: Chapter 536: Fill It to the Max
“Where did this kid come from? He’s too arrogant, isn’t he?”
“Clown, is this a place you can just walk into?”
“When did our gym club start hosting weight loss experts?”
“Want to teach Lei Tai? Damn, where did you get the courage?”
…
Facing the ridicule from countless people around him.
Lu Ran still maintained a smile on his face.
Looking at Lei Tai, he said, “When will you understand that real strength lies in the core, not in the lumps of muscles that seem so strong? In the face of true strength, they are just a joke.”
Upon hearing this, Lei Tai’s expression also became serious.
Of course.
Not because he believed Lu Ran’s words.
But because he felt repeatedly provoked by such a guy, Lei Tai couldn’t stand it.
He raised his hand to interrupt Lu Ran.
Saying, “No use talking. You want to teach me, right? Come on, show me what you’ve got.”
Lu Ran was not in a hurry.
He simply said, “Showing off is no problem, but let’s agree that if I earn your approval, you will contribute your Battle Banner Alliance’s big data model, and I will teach you how to enhance your strength.”
It sounds complicated, but it’s actually very simple.
Once digitized, leveling up and defeating the Monster can enhance your Strength Attribute, does that even need to be taught?
It’s quite clever.
“Alright, I agree with you.” Lei Tai didn’t even think before agreeing.
Because in Lei Tai’s view, this young man in front of him could never gain his approval.
This skinny frame teaching him to enhance strength?
It’s simply a joke!
“That’s good, let’s begin then.” Lu Ran nodded and said.
The onlookers around became interested too, but they were not looking forward to Lu Ran’s display. Instead, they wanted to watch the fun, catch the show.
Lu Ran glanced at Lei Tai one last time, then walked over to the barbell Lei Tai was deadlifting just now.
“What are you doing? Kid, you’re going to deadlift? Do you know how heavy this is? How about this: I’ll cut it in half, 150 kilograms, lift that first, and then we’ll talk because it seems you don’t realize how heavy this actually is.” Lei Tai said to Lu Ran.
Lu Ran sneered.
He said, “Cut it in half? Are you joking, needing to cut this little weight in half? Then I think you really need to improve your strength, too weak.”
Damn!
Lei Tai was about to explode.
He’s seen shamelessness, but never to this extent!
“Fine, then go ahead, come on, I can’t wait to see how you perform.” Lei Tai said.
While dismantling his own protective belt, intending to hand it to Lu Ran.
It was a natural thought.
At this weight, who dares to go without protection?
But Lu Ran refused.
He waved his hand, saying, “What do I need that for? With assistance, is it still considered your own skill?”
Lei Tai rolled his eyes, too lazy to argue.
He just stretched out his hand, signaling Lu Ran could start.
Meanwhile.
He gave a glance to his two assistants beside him.
The two assistants crept a little closer, ready to prevent any accidents that could happen at any time.
You know.
It’s 290 kilograms!
An accident could be fatal!
Of course.
The odds of an accident happening were slim because Lu Ran was very unlikely to lift it.
The spectators around all widened their eyes, watching Lu Ran, each of them excited.
They seemed to have prepared the mocking words and flattering comments for Lei Tai, ready to say them at a moment’s notice.
But in the next second.
The place suddenly went quiet.
Lu Ran just slightly squatted down.
Gripped the barbell with both hands, then rose. Yes, just like that, simply, smoothly, fluidly.
The 290-kilogram barbell was lifted by Lu Ran.
Lu Ran even maintained the lifted pose, turned to look at Lei Tai.
Asked, “How’s that?”
Lei Tai was dumbfounded.
Today was his first attempt at this weight, able to lift it was already a sign of top form, already at the peak state.
Given another chance, he might not even be able to lift it!
But the Lu Ran in front of him actually lifted it!
How did his lean frame accomplish this?
And so effortlessly!
Honestly, Lu Ran felt like there was no weight in his hands because the difference was too great!
Lu Ran’s current Strength Attribute was already extraordinary.
This weight is a piece of cake!
But to not be overly dramatic or shocking, he decided to hold back a bit, simply amaze Lei Tai until he believed.
Yet it didn’t go as Lu Ran thought.
Lei Tai was indeed amazed, but at the same time, he felt his pride greatly wounded.
He frowned, watching Lu Ran put down the barbell.
He spoke up, “Your performance indeed was beyond my expectations.”
Lu Ran said with satisfaction, “As long as you approve. So, about the conditions we talked about?”
Lei Tai raised an eyebrow.
Said, “Your performance is excellent, but it still doesn’t earn my approval. I know some people’s techniques are very strong, and you’re relying on technique, not real power. Besides, what can this skinny frame teach me? Deadlifting relies on one’s own strength core and can’t be accomplished by methods; it requires hard training, you…”
“Stop, stop, stop!” Lu Ran interrupted Lei Tai directly.
Then said calmly, “Didn’t think you’d be so stubborn.”
But it’s reasonable.
Even though Lu Ran lifted it, he seemed relaxed, no different from Lei Tai.
Lei Tai could lift it too.
Everyone’s score was the same; naturally, convincing Lei Tai was impossible.
At least.
To teach someone, you need to surpass them, right?
Lu Ran suddenly realized this key point.
And at this moment.
The spectators around fell silent instead.
Saying nothing.
No matter how skinny Lu Ran looks, the skill is real!
Like Lei Tai, he could deadlift 290 kilograms!
They had no place to comment.
This is a competition between strong individuals!
The gym is like this; although these people talk loudly, as long as you show real power and strength, you can earn their respect!
Lu Ran has already won everyone’s approval.
Just hasn’t received Lei Tai’s yet.
Lu Ran wasted no words.
Looked at Lei Tai’s assistant, said, “Add weight.”
Add weight?
It’s already 290 kilograms, add weight?
But everyone understood Lu Ran’s intention and reasoning; it’s to surpass Lei Tai, right?
However, this couldn’t be easily agreed upon; the assistant turned to look at Lei Tai.
“Add it,” Lei Tai said directly.
The assistant then turned back to Lu Ran, asking, “How much more?”
Lu Ran grinned at Lei Tai.
But his words were directed at the assistant, simply saying, “Max it out!”
