Chapter 293 Exhaustion
Upon seeing this.
Gu Dapeng originally wanted to say a few more words, but the words got stuck in his throat.
He stared wide-eyed at Jiang Bai's forearm and subconsciously reached out to squeeze it.
"Holy crap......."
Gu Dapeng coughed dryly, feeling as if he were holding a solid iron rod, his fingers going numb from the shock.
"Well... I didn't realize you had such a hidden talent beneath that skin. You're quite the hidden gem."
Gu Dapeng chuckled awkwardly and quickly changed the subject, fearing that Jiang Bai would put him in a chokehold on the spot.
"Alright, having strength is a good thing, but you can't just handle shot put with brute force."
"Watch this, I'm going to give you a lesson on what the professional qualities of a 'National Second-Level Athlete' are."
Gu Dapeng instantly switched into coach mode, standing inside the throwing circle and striking a perfectly standard pose.
"First, your stance is crucial. Your center of gravity must be stable, resting on your back leg."
Gu Dapeng explained and demonstrated at the same time:
"Look at my shoulders, they can't be stiff, they need to be like a spring holding power."
Jiang Bai listened attentively from the side. After all, although his 12 points of stamina were impressive, if he didn't know how to exert his strength, it would be no different from using a machine gun as a fire poker.
"Watch my torso rotation! The power comes not from your arms, but from your waist and legs!"
After explaining the basics of the technique, Gu Dapeng felt he hadn't had enough, so he pulled Jiang Bai aside and started explaining the essence of the "slide step".
When Gu Dapeng reached the second climax, his entire demeanor suddenly changed.
"Watch closely! This is explosive power!"
He suddenly spun around, the power accumulated in his waist and abdomen instantly flowing down his spine to his right arm, and with a push of his five fingers—
"call--!"
The 7.26-kilogram iron ball roared out, drawing an extremely high arc in the air.
"Bang!"
The shot put landed precisely near the red circle, more than ten meters away, kicking up a small patch of dirt on the ground.
The students practicing around them turned to look, and some exclaimed:
"Great shot! Is this guy a pro?"
Gu Dapeng dusted off his hands, arrogantly stepped aside, and raised an eyebrow at Jiang Bai:
"How's it going, third brother? Did you get the hang of that 'spirit'?"
"Come on, give it a try. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. If you can throw it 5 meters the first time, that's a success."
Su Ze and Lin Le, who were standing nearby, also came over, looking like they were watching a good show.
"Brother-in-law, go for it! You're the kind of guy who'll throw the shot put out of the solar system!"
Jiang Bai took a deep breath and stepped into the throwing circle.
He bent down and picked up the second shot put from the ground.
The moment you hold it, you feel that heavy weight throughout your body.
In his 12-point stamina perception, the ball, though heavy, was completely within his control.
Jiang Bai closed his eyes, frantically replaying Gu Dapeng's actions in his mind.
Shift your weight down... rotate your body... exert force...
At this moment, Jiang Bai felt a surge of brute force in his chest that urgently needed to be released.
Right now!
He suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze wide open, and all the muscles in his body tensed up instantly!
"Get out of here—!"
Jiang Bai let out a low growl, imitating Gu Dapeng, his right leg suddenly slammed into the ground, his body spun like a whirlwind, and his right hand pushed the iron ball outwards like a madman.
In that instant, Jiang Bai felt a terrifying force surge through his shoulder.
But then something embarrassing happened.
Since this was his first time attempting such a professional move, his body coordination was completely unable to keep up with the explosive force.
Just as the shot put left his hand, Jiang Bai slipped, and the force that should have propelled him forward was instead lost in mid-air.
"Thump."
There was a muffled thud.
The shot put, which was originally expected to soar into the sky, drew a short arc in the air.
Then.......
Like an iron ball that died from exhaustion, it landed limply less than three meters from the throwing circle.
It even playfully rolled around on the grass twice before finally stopping steadily not far in front of Jiang Bai's toes.
The entire room fell silent.
The "Holy shit!" that Su Ze was about to shout got stuck in his throat and turned into some kind of extremely strange gurgling sound.
Lin Le pushed up his glasses, stared at the shot put on the ground, and fell into deep thought.
Three seconds later.
"Pfft... Hahahaha!"
Gu Dapeng was the first to lose his temper, squatting down and pounding the floor like crazy, laughing so hard his whole body was shaking.
"Third brother! Hahahaha!"
"That pose you were just doing... oh my god, I thought you were going to smash the moon down, but instead you were just 'planting seeds' for our class?"
Su Ze laughed so hard he couldn't straighten up, and he leaned on the railing and shouted:
"Third brother! Is this what they call 'all bark and no bite'?"
"Were those arm muscles originally inflated with air?"
"Two or three meters? I could throw it farther with my left hand, even with my eyes closed!"
Jiang Bai stood in the center of the throwing circle, staring at the shot put not far ahead, feeling completely numb.
It's really numb.
That's so damn embarrassing!
How could a tough guy with 12 points of stamina throw a "child-level" result on the playground?
"Third brother, don't be discouraged, it's normal, it's normal!"
Gu Dapeng finally managed to stop laughing, walked over and patted Jiang Bai on the shoulder, but his eyes were full of undisguised amusement.
"It's okay, it's normal!"
"Third brother, I just said that shot put is a skill-based activity."
"You used a lot of strength just now, but unfortunately you held it all in your chest. That's called 'energy depletion'."
"But a distance of two or three meters is quite remarkable. That big yellow dog at the entrance of our department could probably throw a bone that far."
Jiang Bai blushed slightly, coughed awkwardly, and silently walked over to pick up the lead ball.
This time, he didn't act recklessly.
I closed my eyes and frantically replayed Gu Dapeng's perfect spin, push-off, and hand-pushing movements in my mind.
Because the 12 points of stamina not only brought brute force, but also extremely strong physical coordination, the set of movements was rapidly deconstructed in his mind and transformed into the most perfect mechanical trajectory.
"One more time."
Jiang Bai whispered the report, his eyes instantly turning cold.
next second.
Jiang Bai made a move.
He calmed his breath, turned to the side, and twisted his body; every movement was surprisingly fluid!
The explosive power of 12 points of stamina flowed like a river into the sea, precisely channeling into his right hand along his spine in that instant.
"go--!"
A sharp, piercing sound suddenly rang out!
The heavy lead ball traced a perfectly round parabola in the air.
It passed the "deep crater" left by Gu Dapeng and made a muffled roar when it was a meter or two away.
"Bang!!!"
Grass flew everywhere, and the iron ball was deeply embedded in the soil.
that moment.
The entire shot put stadium fell into a deathly silence.
Su Ze's smile hadn't even faded before it froze on his face, looking like a broken meme.
Lin Le adjusted his glasses, which had slipped down to the tip of his nose, his eyes filled with shock.
The most shocking thing was Gu Dapeng.
"This...this is fucking..."
Gu Dapeng rubbed his eyes hard. "Holy crap, that went even further than me!!"
