[He's bleeding like hell, shouldn't he be getting first aid now!]
[Don't worry, Brother Tyre bleeds often. He bleeds like a faucet during training, probably used to it by now.]
[Next up is Qi Refining Brother, do you think he can lift it?]
[There's a good chance. After all, Wang Ye just did a set of twenty reps at four hundred kilograms.]
[Based on the formula for set weight and max weight, Wang Ye has a high probability of pulling it off.]
[I estimate that even if Wang Ye can lift it, it'll take so effort. This weight is enough to crush ordinary bones, no joke. Only these strongn with heavy layers of muscle and fat can withstand such pressure.]
[Indeed, both Eddie Hall and Brother Tyre carry so extra fat. Even the great generals of ancient China were big and strong. So fat helps muscle explosive power and endurance, also improves resilience, but Wang Ye's body fat percentage is clearly too low. I visually estimate it's around 10%, with muscle definition like a bodybuilder in peak season.]
[Indeed, I see those high-weight category weightlifters, they all eat like crazy, no diet control. I used to think it was gluttony, but later realized it was intentional.]
[Even in bodybuilding, once the body fat percentage drops below 10%, strength decreases significantly. Body fat is crucial for strength.]
[Wang Ye is a long-distance runner, so a lower body fat percentage is understandable, but in strength lifting and weightlifting, it's really a disadvantage.]
[You all are discussing so thoroughly I don't dare to interrupt...]
[Brothers, you're right, but you haven't considered one thing, Wang Ye is a cultivator.]
[Indeed, cultivators rely on Spiritual Qi, not mundane food. Your theories don't apply to Qi Refining Brother.]
[Haha, you took netizens' jokes seriously, really thought there are cultivators in the world?]

After Brother Tyre collapsed, soone imdiately handed him an electrolyte drink.
The drink contained sugar, quickly replenishing his glucose.
Relieving symptoms of low blood sugar and electrolyte imbalance.
After a sip of electrolyte drink and so fruit, his complexion gradually improved, muscles regained strength, proving his body was quite resilient to have no lasting damage after being pushed so far.
Since he didn't succeed in the deadlift, he was embarrassed and planned to leave once his body recovered.
But just then, Wang Ye stepped up to the 500-kilogram barbell.
He grasped the barbell with both hands, assuming the standard deadlift starting posture.
Seeing this, Brother Tyre, who was about to leave, stopped in surprise. He had nearly fainted before this barbell, yet this guy dared to challenge this weight?
At this mont, everyone around held their breath, focused on the center where Wang Ye stood.
Once Wang Ye was in position, he suddenly exerted force and pushed off the ground.
Ssss— After brief resistance, the barbell slowly lifted off the ground, rising upwards with no hint of sticking or imbalance, as smoothly as a crane on a construction site.
The spectators' pupils slightly contracted, showing surprised expressions.
He actually lifted it!!
This was a 500-kilogram weight.
Just lifting it a few centiters proves this person has terrifying strength.
As Wang Ye's movent progressed to full extension, the barbell reached his thigh base.
In deadlifting, you need to pull the barbell from the floor to thigh level to complete a standard move. Wang Ye lifting it smoothly to thigh base ans he perford it very standardly.
The surrounding spectators beca even more shocked because they realized they were witnessing a world record challenge!
Even the current world record holder for deadlifting 500 kilograms needs explosive power to barely complete a rep.
But Wang Ye's deadlift process showed no explosive force,
purely relying on absolute strength to steadily lift it to thigh base!
"He did it..."
Brother Tyre's face turned pale.
He actually did it!
He didn't expect that this man, whose muscle shape wasn't impressive and had very low body fat,
actually edged him out in strength and broke a world record!
Yet before Brother Tyre could react.
Wang Ye, having set the barbell down, lifted it again.
He raised and lowered it, again and again.
The movents were always extrely smooth, without a hint of a pause.
As if this 500-kilogram weight was as light as a feather to him.
Finally, after ten reps, Wang Ye stopped.
But no one thought he stopped from exhaustion,
because Wang Ye's breathing was still calm, not rapid.
For any endurance-related sport, the best indicator of whether soone is tired is their heart rate and breathing rate.
This is also how many coaches check if athletes are slacking off; if heart rate is below 150 bpm, their stamina isn't maxed out.
The primitive thod for heart rate checking is feeling the pulse or visibly observing. Though eyesight is rougher, experienced people can estimate heart rate by the subtle pulse in the neck.
And now Wang Ye's breathing and heart rate were still below 100 bpm. This showed that doing 10 reps at this weight was far from his limit.
At this mont in the livestream.
[Holy crap, holy crap…]
[Half-ton deadlift for ten reps, is this guy a real cultivator?]
[Confird, true cultivator.]
[Forgive for doubting you before, teach cultivation big guy!]
[This must be Foundation Establishnt Stage at least, still saying Qi Refining Stage Cultivator?]
[Foundation Establishnt Stage would involve Sword Flight, seems more like Qi Refining Stage Perfection.]
[When is Wang Ye returning to China to pass on his teachings, I've been waiting so long.]
··························
··························
"As expected, still too easy." Wang Ye shook his head.
At his power level, barbells couldn't really test his limits.
Even with a thousand-pound weighted vest, deadlifting 500 kilograms was still far from his limits.
Perhaps in the future, he'd need a hydraulic press for a strength test.
As Wang Ye was about to leave, Brother Tyre stopped him.
He got soone to bring out an extended version of the barbell, loaded with countless fifty-plus pound plates. This barbell was more than twice the length of a standard barbell, with sides designed to hold more plates. The handle in the middle was thickened, of better quality, capable of bearing a greater downward pressure than a standard barbell.
Soon, a few people filled this barbell with plates,
Wang Ye counted at a glance,
and the plates plus the bar itself weighed over a thousand kilograms, one ton.
This extended barbell filled with plates looked extrely exaggerated, like a massive steel beam from a construction site.
"So heavy… can this barbell really hold up to this weight?"
"Still, quite interesting."
Wang Ye slowly took off his jacket.
And began removing his weighted vest.
Dropped it to the ground.
Boom!!!
In an instant, countless dust particles in the mat were thrown into the air.
