Chapter 212: Training Ground
After complimenting each other, Andre took Qi Dong and the others towards the training venue.
The training area is the size of a basketball court, and there are all kinds of training equipment on it, and at the moment there are dozens of strong men of similar size to Andre doing various strength sports.
The vast majority of these trainers are foreign men, and there are very few Chinese men.
Chen Hao on the side sighed when he saw this: "Hey, it seems that in terms of strength-based extreme sports, we yellow people still have a big disadvantage." ”
After hearing this, Andre smiled and said: "I don't agree with this, Mr. Qi is also a yellow race, and he has so much strength, which shows that the yellow race has great potential, but it has not been tapped yet." ”
Qi Dong smiled noncommittally.
Andrei continued: "Let me introduce you to the events and rules of this Hercules competition.
The tournament is divided into a qualifier and a final, and only those who pass the qualifiers will be able to enter the finals. The qualifiers are today, and they will start in a while, and anyone can participate, as long as the player hits the dynamometer and is above a certain value, he can enter the finals. The final is tomorrow, and there are a total of three events, namely Atlas Boulder, Infinity Lift Cars and Lituo Boeing Aircraft, and the scores of the three events are added up to give a total score to rank. ”
"What?!And tugboats?" Ji Yu on the side said in great surprise.
"Haha, yes. Andre smiled and nodded, "Sounds incredible, but it's not impossible for a world-class Hercules."
However, this is the last event, and there are very few players who can make it this far, and I guess I can count them on one hand. ”
"Mr. Andre, which players do you think are the most powerful on the training ground now?" Qi Dong asked curiously.
After hearing this, Andrei glanced around the training ground, and then pointed to a bald man who was nearly two meters tall not far away and said: "You see, that man's name is Ivanov, and he is the No. 1 strong man in Russia, who won the second place in the last competition. I heard that he usually wrestles with brown bears to build his strength. ”
"Damn, it's awesome, it's worthy of being from a famous battle clan!" Fang Lin exclaimed, and the others were also surprised.
Andrei turned around for half a circle, and then pointed to a strong man with pale yellow hair and a little shorter than Ivanov and said: "That person is also very powerful, named Lucas, nicknamed the Lion of Great Britain, has been in the top five in recent competitions, and his results are very stable. ”
"Who was the champion of the last edition, is it here?" Chen Hao suddenly asked.
After hearing this, Andre carefully glanced around the training ground, and finally shook his head with a little disappointment: "It's strange, why isn't the 'Magic Mountain' here, I obviously remember that he came to participate in the competition." He won't miss a game of this size. ”
"Maybe it's not there yet. Qi Dong guessed.
Andre nodded, and continued to walk around the training ground with Qi Dong and the others, greeting those strong men from time to time.
The group walked up to a shirtless man who was trying to pick up a huge stone ball, but tried several times without success, and looked frustrated.
Andre pointed to the stone ball and said to Qi Dong: "Mr. Qi, this is the Atlas boulder to be used in the first project of the finals. There are five of these stone balls, each weighing differently, and the one we see now is 200 kilograms.
Mr. Qi, why don't you try it and show everyone your strength. ”
Without waiting for Qi Dong to reply, the shirtless strong man said angrily in English: "Andre, are you kidding? I can't even hold this thing, you actually let such a skinny Chinese boy try it, do you look down on me?"
Qi Dong couldn't understand what the strong man said, but he knew by looking at his look and tone that it was not a good word, but he didn't care, but waved his hand to Andre with a smile and said, "I don't participate in the competition, there is no need to try this." ”
"Hat?!" Andre was very surprised when he heard this, "Mr. Qi, you are so strong, why don't you participate in the competition?"
Qi Dong smiled and replied calmly: "My team and I are here to enjoy this Hercules competition and present the wonderful competition process to my friends in the live broadcast room." As for participating in the competition, I didn't think about it in the first place, maybe I wasn't very interested. ”
Andre looked disappointed after hearing this: "Hey, it's a pity that I can't compete with Mr. Qi! Originally, with Mr. Qi's strength, it would not be a problem to get a top ranking." ”
"Haha, isn't that good, if I don't participate in the competition, won't you have a strong opponent?" Qi Dong joked.
Andre was also amused: "Mr. Qi is really joking, with my strength, even if you don't participate, I will be eliminated in the first two rounds." ”
Next, the group continued to watch in the training ground for a while, and when it was almost nine o'clock, Andre said: "Mr. Qi, the qualifiers are about to start, don't you really plan to participate?"
Qi Dong still shook his head.
"Oh well. Andre nodded helplessly, and then asked, "By the way, are you going to go to the qualifiers live?"
"Andre, did you say before that the qualifiers were only about hitting the dynamometer?" Qi Dong asked.
"Yes, it's probably not very ornamental. Andrei replied.
After hearing this, Qi Dong discussed with several other people, and finally decided not to broadcast the qualifiers live, they planned to go to the nearby park to have fun and broadcast the surrounding food and scenery.
So, after saying goodbye to Andre, Qi Dong and the others left the training ground.
After Qi Dong and his party left, those strong men on the training ground started to talk about it.
"Andre, who was that Chinese kid just now, is it really as powerful as you say?"
"How much strength can such a thin man have! Otherwise, why wouldn't he even dare to participate in the competition?"
"Haha, that's right, that kid still said that he wasn't interested, I think he was afraid of revealing his true strength. The Chinese really brag!"
"That's right, I can lift him up with one hand!
......
After coming out of the training ground, Qi Dong and the others went to the nearby food street.
"Qi Dong, how do I think that your strength is much greater than those strong men. The shirtless strong man just now couldn't even hold 200 kilograms of stones, but you could even hold a bus. Chen Hao said.
"That's right, Brother Hao is right, Brother Dong, you can participate in the competition, and in my opinion, you can still win the first place!" Ji Yu also echoed and said, and the others were not far behind.
In the face of the instigation of these guys, Qi Dong just laughed and said nothing, because he really didn't want to make so much effort to participate in any Hercules competition, and he really wanted to enjoy the fun of being a spectator.
Everyone continued to move forward, and when passing by the qualifier venue, Qi Dong suddenly stopped, and he saw a familiar figure, it was Wu Li, who wanted to worship him as a teacher at the gate of Jiangdong Sports School two days ago.
