Although the skills of the other contestants are quite mature,
due to generally lacking physical and psychological qualities, most competitors are prone to errors when facing such an unfamiliar and thrilling outdoor course.
Therefore, over 90% of the contestants can only perform at less than 80% of their potential.
Moreover, this track is a full 450 ters long, which not only requires competitors to have very high technical skills but also demands excellent physical qualities. Otherwise, they would be too tired to continue halfway through.
"Most results are around four minutes, and so far, the best record is set by that Zhang Yijie... three minutes and two seconds."
Wang Ye couldn’t help but cover his face.
Just a couple of days ago, he had tested his own score on this Wutong Mountain track—two minutes and thirty seconds.
Looks like another record is about to be broken...
And just as Wang Ye was secretly sighing,
a contestant recognized Wang Ye’s identity.
"Qi Refining Brother? You’re actually here to participate in a parkour competition?"
"Ca to earn so prize money and make a video on this topic as well," Wang Ye explained, shaking his head.
"Putting everything else aside, do you have the confidence to take the first place?" the contestant grinned and asked.
"That depends on whether there are any unexpected events," Wang Ye replied.
"Haha, so if there are no accidents, you’ll definitely take first place, right? I’m looking forward to you achieving a good result later, as a sort of explanation to us fans."
After taking a picture with Wang Ye, the contestant quickly went off to participate in other events.
···························
···························
Ti passed quickly.
Soon, it was Wang Ye’s turn for the race.
After the staff gave a brief reminder of the competition instructions, they led him to the starting line.
Standing at the starting line, one could clearly see the scenery of the entire 450-ter track. At this mont, many hiking tourists had gathered on both sides of the course. A single stumble would send them crashing down onto the tourists, which made one feel nervous just thinking about it.
Many contestants who had recognized Wang Ye’s identity long ago stood on either side of the track,
intently watching Wang Ye at the starting line.
"What do you think Qi Refining Brother’s score will be this ti?"
"At least three minutes, right?"
"Wouldn’t that surpass Zhang Yijie?"
"No kidding! Qi Refining Brother is soone who can break marathon world records."
"But this is parkour; can you really compare it to a marathon?"
"You obviously haven’t watched Qi Refining Brother’s videos. He’s an all-around athlete!"
"I’d like to see how he completes the whole course. After all, parkour isn’t just about explosive power and endurance."
"I think it’d be good enough if he finishes, but getting a record might be tough."
"Don’t talk so much, hurry and film it! This is a video of Qi Refining Brother participating in a parkour competition!"
···························
Boom!!!
The starting gun fired quickly.
Wang Ye suddenly dove into a roll and began sprinting wildly down the track. Thanks to the Light Body Technique reducing his body weight, he seed extrely nimble, with jumping distances and heights nearly twice that of an average person.
Obstacles that required other contestants to jump over twice could be easily cleared by Wang Ye in a single leap!
On this obstacle-ridden course, he ran with a speed reminiscent of a hundred-ter sprint.
His speed was significantly faster than the other contestants by several tis.
This astonishing burst of speed instantly caught the attention of countless people.
Typically, when a fast-moving object suddenly appears in one’s field of vision, most people instinctively look in the direction of that swift movent. This is a primal instinct from ancient human genes to perceive and avoid danger, prompting humans to be acutely aware of rapidly moving life forms.
For example, a car speeding on the road—most people, when they see a speeding car or motorcycle, instinctively turn their heads to look, feeling a thrill of fear. This is because, in primitive tis, large objects capable of moving at such high speeds were usually fearso creatures to be avoided.
Many tourists couldn’t help but stop in their tracks,
gaping at Wang Ye, who was sprinting rapidly on the course.
"Wow, that contestant is running so fast."
"It’s been just a few seconds, and he’s already fifty ters out?!"
"Monkeys aren’t this nimble!"
"Isn’t he afraid of tumbling down the mountain with that kind of sprint?"
"Is that level of control even human?"
At this mont,
the event organizers and staff, who had been lethargic earlier, suddenly snapped to attention.
"What’s this contestant’s na?" asked a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, frowning.
The staff quickly checked the contestant roster and replied, "Let see... Wang Ye! Height: 1.89 ters, Weight: 200 pounds."
The man’s pupils constricted slightly, "With that height and weight, he’s actually that agile?!"
A nearby staff mber chid in, "This contestant looks familiar. Seems like he’s a Douyin influencer with millions of followers!"
"Which influencer?"
"Seems like he’s called... Qi Refining Stage Cultivator."
"A million-follower influencer ca and you only noticed now?! Quick, inform Xiao Li’s team to co and shoot the video!"
·························
At this mont.
On the track, Wang Ye was still sprinting with all his might.
The Rushing Skill that increased movent speed by 10% made his running speed unimaginably fast. Combined with his robust physique, it gave him the explosive power and ferocity of a tiger or lion.
Yet at the sa ti, his movents were as light and nimble as a rabbit or gibbon climbing through the branches.
This simultaneous expression of power and lightness made his movents seem inexplicably contradictory.
Very puzzling.
A physique as robust as Wang Ye’s is rarely seen on parkour courses because the sport demands imnse agility from its athletes.
Individuals with robust physiques often lack significant agility as their running inertia is too great, which reduces their body control ability.
However, at this mont, Wang Ye exhibited two traits that shouldn’t coexist...
Which is why most contestants displayed such puzzled expressions.
At this mont,
Zhang Yijie, who was filming a video, also noticed the contestant speeding unreasonably on the track.
"How is that contestant running so fast?"
"Brother Jie, what do you think his final score will be?" asked the young man holding the cara next to him.
Zhang Yijie shook his head and replied, "I don’t know, maybe around two minutes? Anyway, it’s definitely faster than ; that contestant’s prowess completely overwhelms mine."
"Then you won’t get the championship?"
"What can you do when encountering such a powerhouse with overwhelming strength..."
