nIn the case of chin-ups, you only need to complete seven to pass the exams and eleven for full marks.

nTherefore, other people usually jump off the bar after completing seven or they keep struggling for one or two more.

nBut I heard that the world record was 62 chin-ups in one minute, which was set by an American.

nOf course, our test will not be time-limited, you can do it for however long you want.

nNiu ShiLi gripped the bar tightly and hot air shot out from his nostrils, it was like the bar was his mortal enemy. He gnashed his teeth and started to do chin-ups.

nWearing short-sleeved clothes in the summer, his arms appeared to be even more thick and strong. I reckon that his arms are almost as thick as teacher Yu’s thighs.

nSometimes, you can’t not respect natural talent. Even if you say “I want to fly”, then after some hard work, you finally found out you were a damn lobster! It would be more reasonable to be determined to become Edward scissor hands!

nAlong with Niu ShiLi’s upwards and downwards motion, his exposed muscles started to exude tiny drips of sweat. As the class leader’s number one loyal dog, the deputy class leader, he had a lot of supporters cheering him on.

n“Go, Niu ShiLi!”

n“Go! Be sure to win!”

n“Niu ShiLi is a good model! Who said that your body would be weak if you’re good at learning, that’s prejudice!”

nThe person who spoke was the English class representative who would foam at the mouth after running no more than 50 meters. His grades were pretty good though.

n“Today, we will determine the king of chin-ups of class 2-3!”

nThese people really feel there is not enough chaos in the world. What does “king of chin-ups” even mean? I feel that moving up and down on the bar while being surrounded by more and more students and teachers feels like some sort of shame play!

nI started to pull up, but I didn’t put in as much effort as Niu ShiLi. It wouldn’t be good if I hurt my wrist like last time.

nIn addition, I just removed the splint from my left arm, so my recovery progress is still under observation.

nTherefore, when I did chin-ups, I was controlled and slow. When Niu ShiLi did two, I only did one.

nAt the beginning, Niu ShiLi’s fans were very pleased, because when Niu Shili had done 50 chin-ups, I only did 26.

nBut, it’s impossible to run a marathon with the speed you use in a 100 meter dash.

nAlthough Niu ShiLi’s physical talent was greater than mine, but under such intense movements, he lacked stamina, and I started to gradually catch up.

n“Niu ShiLi, 66, Ye Lin, 57.”

nThe PE teacher announced the current score.

nNiu ShiLi’s hair was already drenched in sweat, it appeared messier than usual. There was also a large sweat stain under his armpits.

nStill, it’s amazing. If I used the same speed as him, my arms might have already went numb and I would have fell off the bar.

nWhy does he have to compete with me? Is it only because he scored two points less than me on the physics exam?

nSuddenly, I had a wild thought: we are the two best students in physics of the 2-3, we are also the tallest and strongest, called “physical double males”. Does God think that the current physicists are too weak (such as Hawkings), so he sent us two strong people to save the physics community?

nOf course it is impossible! I was just rambling, I don’t even believe in God.

nAs the number of chin-ups reached 89 and 87, although Niu ShiLi still led, but his arms and shoulders were shaking so much I could feel it on the adjacent bar.

nNiu ShiLi clenched his teeth and snorted like a bull. It was like he suddenly resurrected, he exerted all his effort and did 10 more violently.

n

n

nI smacked my lips. If he wanted to win that badly, I should just let him win. I have to take care of my arm, once it is completely restored, I still have to level up by learning from kung fu gramps.

nSo I did a few more and jumped off the bar.

nBecause I consciously conserved my strength throughout the test, I seemed to be much more relaxed than Niu ShiLi. Other than a little sweat on my forehead, I didn’t have any sweat stains on my shirt. In contrast, it looks like Niu ShiLi was just fished out of a water tank.

n“Ye Lin 95! Niu ShiLi 99…100!”

nNiu ShiLi stubbornly did a full hundred, then jumped off the bar. He swayed a bit when he landed, it was evident he was exhausted.

nThe fans all gathered around, congratulating him, handing him towels, making it like he was a world champion.

nWhen everyone was cheering for Niu ShiLi, Eunuch Cao felt that he could not get any benefit from sticking with me, so he gathered together with the enemy. At this time, he stuck up his thumb to Niu ShiLi: “Big bro Niu is really cool! I’m stunned from amazement! Umm… I forgot to bring my physics homework today, can I give it to you tomorrow!”

nXiao Qin wasn’t spectating from the side today. She was less likely to come whenever it was really sunny. Is it because she used to live at home for three years, so now she would wither under the sun?

nThe class leader completed the sit-up test for the girls in advance and walked beside the bars to watch with the crowd.

nLooking at me and Niu ShiLi, who were like perpetual motion machines, endlessly doing chin-ups, the class leader was worried.

nShe probably wasn’t worried that one of us would be injured, but she was thinking of her brother’s PE problem.

nI heard that Shu Zhe couldn’t even do half a chin-up, and he would almost die after running a few steps.

nI left the crowd of people and walked towards the class leader. The class leader watched me come over, neither evading nor welcoming, she just waited for me in place.

n“How did you lose?”

nThe class leader asked me casually.

nOf course, she can’t wear a skirt in PE class. She was wearing a navy blue sportswear outfit today. It was thinner than the spring and autumn uniform, the cuffs and trousers were also thinner. It was easy to exercise in and it highlighted her body.

n“It’s boring to continue.” I put my hands in the pockets of my shorts. “No one was cheering for me. They won’t be happy if I win.”

n“So, you deliberately lost?”

nThe class leader looked at me as if to say I was lying.

n“It doesn’t matter what you think, in fact, it’s not embarrassing losing to Niu ShiLi. He has a lot of natural talent, but he hasn’t yet learned how to use it effectively. Otherwise, if I had an actual match with him, I wouldn’t be able to win.”

nSeeing that I honestly admitted defeat, the class leader showed a slightly surprised expression.

n“I thought you would get really angry if you lost! Don’t boys all care about their reputation?”

nHey hey hey, don’t compare me with your brother! It was because Shu Zhe worried too much about his reputation, he didn’t want to be seen by others when he was humiliated. That’s the only reason why he dumped his last girlfriend, Xiao Hua! What scum!

n“Hey, class leader, don’t give me that look! Are you saying the girls don’t care about their reputation? I heard that when it’s your birthday, you guys would desperately ask people to attend your party, then compare how many more friends you guys have!”

n“I, I haven’t done that…”

nThe class leader said with a tone of blame.

nOf course you won’t do that! Your birthday is on New Year’s Eve. Who would not spend New Year’s Eve with family, but come over to celebrate your birthday! Also, big celebrations doesn’t fit with your personality, you probably think it’s a waste.

n“Class leader, I want to talk to you about something.”

n“What?”

nThe class leader looked around nervously as if she was observing whether or not the teacher was here.

n“Your brother, how many chin-ups can Shu Zhe do?”

nI asked even though I already knew the answer.

n

n

nThe class leader bit her lip.

n“One? He said he can do one.”

nHe can’t even do one! He said he can do one to save face, I can’t understand his thinking at all!

n“One is probably not enough? You need to do seven to reach the minimum standards!”

n“Umm… do you have any ideas?”

nI stuck up my thumb and made a pose to signify “no problem”.

n“Let me train him, normal course is 30 days, devil’s training course is only 15 days, I can at least make him achieve the minimum standards!”

nThe class leader hesitated for a while.

n“Let’s go with the normal course… How are you going to train him?”

n“Well… the most important thing is perseverance,” I rubbed my temples to make me look as if I was in thought. “You don’t necessarily need a bar to do chin-ups. I used to do it at home on a door frame, it’s key to adapt to local conditions. PE doesn’t differentiate between place or time…”

nI said while glancing at the class leader’s complexion.

nFortunately, she did not doubt me. Since girls only have to do situps, she can’t pass her experiences on to her brother and she must rely on me.

n“Well…” I continued to put on an act for a while before saying, “Didn’t we say it before? When can I come to your house to give Shu Zhe a training plan!”

nThe class leader thought about it while holding her chin. From time to time, she also looked at me and wondered if I had any ulterior motives.

nOf course, I have ulterior motives! I have to go to your home and find the pinhole cameras placed by Shu Zhe! Otherwise, just wait for the “class leader” incident from 28th Middle!

nIt might be because there was no better way. The class leader finally nodded and agreed: “Okay, let’s do that.”

nThen she followed up, “Is today okay?”

nEh? The class leader is extremely swift and decisive! How impatient. But it might be better this way, so I could prevent a guilty conscience.

n“That… I’m going to your home today after school?”

n“Yeah, we can meet in front of Love Pet Hospital…”

n“Okay, I’m familiar with that area. I could have a few chats with Dr. Zhao and Xiao Ding.”

n“No, not at the pet hospital!” The class leader suddenly changed her previous remark. “Wait for me at the entrance of the food market behind the pet hospital… I have some chores to take care of, so I might leave later…”

nWhy not wait at the pet hospital? Don’t you like animals and go there to volunteer every week? Or do you not want Dr. Zhao and Xiao Ding to see us together?

n“Oh right, class leader, there’s still something else.”

n“What is it?”

nThe class leader looked a bit flustered.

nI said cheekily: “I want to eat.”

n“What?”

n“Last time, you promised you would cook for me, you can’t go back on your words.”

nCompared with the class leader’s culinary talent, my dad’s cooking is not enticing at all. He might not even be at home tonight. I heard he had plans with director Cao to go to their illegal gatherings.

n“Okay okay, I know.” After she heard that I wanted to freeload, the class leader regained her calmness. “Meeting at the entrance of the food market makes it convenient for me to buy food. What do you want to eat tonight?”

n“Umm… I’ll eat whatever your brother eats”

nAnyway, since you spoil your brother so much, you probably give him good meals, it probably is better than what I eat.

n“Okay, then I will treat you like my brother.”

nThe corners of the class leader’s mouth raised a bit into an imperceptible smile, she took advantage of me.

nThe food market behind the pet hospital was very easy to find. Five minutes after I walked thee, the class leader, who was riding a bicycle, was late.
