Chapter 9

(Second place on the new book chart, it was worth staying up all night to privately message the author and book friends for votes, thank you all for your support! If you have votes or haven't added to your collection, please lend a hand to Xiao Bu. First place is out of reach, with a big shot like Geng Su standing there, maintaining second place is my goal, hahaha, thank you all!)

"Kid, you're still naive about the world!"

A thin, well-featured security guard stepped out, looking at Du Zhong with a sympathetic gaze. The other five people did the same.

Du Zhong remembered that this was the only person who had been lying on the sofa watching TV. From his behavior and appearance, this guy seemed to be the one with the most ideas in the security team.

"Wang Hao is a top student from the sports school. If you had just taken the step down, it would have been fine, but you even invited him to practice. Sigh, so inexperienced!"

As he finished speaking, a burst of laughter came from behind!

"Pity, a good top student from the sports school has been brought to this lackluster state by you all. You really are a den of snakes and rats!"

Du Zhong gave a cold laugh.

With just one sentence, the entire security team became solemn. Everyone stared at Du Zhong as if they wanted to eat him alive.

Being mocked repeatedly by this guy, these people had been harboring resentment in their hearts. They had only given him some face as the new captain, but that didn't mean they would let themselves be ridiculed.

"You wanted to practice, right?"

Wang Hao glared at Du Zhong with anger and said, "I'll do push-ups with you!"

"We'll do them together. If you can do more than me, I'll recognize you as the captain. If you can't, find somewhere else to cool off!"

"Right, if you win Wang Hao, we'll recognize you! Otherwise, scram!"

The other five people immediately chimed in with cold smiles.

"Alright, remember what you said!"

Du Zhong smiled in satisfaction and gestured for Wang Hao to start.

"Start!"

With the words of the security team's strategist, Du Zhong and Wang Hao simultaneously got down and started doing push-ups!

Twenty...

Fifty...

Eighty...

Both were very fast, without a single pause, and their faces showed no signs of fatigue.

It had to be said, Wang Hao's background from the sports school was not to be underestimated. He managed to do nearly eighty push-ups in one go, keeping up with Du Zhong!

At eighty, Wang Hao gave Du Zhong a challenging look. Seeing that the somewhat thin Du Zhong had done eighty without even panting, his eyes were full of surprise.

The five other security guards were also somewhat surprised, clearly thinking they had underestimated Du Zhong.

"Let's see how long you can last!"

Wang Hao snorted inwardly. Just as he was about to continue, he saw Du Zhong smile at him.

The next moment made Wang Hao's pupils contract violently.

After doing far more than the usual limit of eighty push-ups, Du Zhong actually sped up!

Yes, sped up!

In the blink of an eye, Du Zhong had completed another twenty.

Wang Hao immediately snapped out of it, his eyes filled with a strong determination not to lose, and he started doing push-ups frantically.

This scene also stunned the other five people. They found it hard to imagine that the somewhat thin Du Zhong could be so fierce.

In less than thirty seconds, Du Zhong had already completed another hundred rapid push-ups.

After finishing, Du Zhong waited for Wang Hao in the middle of a push-up.

As everyone knows, the most tiring part of doing push-ups is when the arms are parallel to the body. Du Zhong maintained this position until Wang Hao finished!

After doing a hundred and twenty rapid push-ups, sweat started to flow down Wang Hao's forehead. In contrast, Du Zhong still looked relaxed.

"Still want to compete?"

Du Zhong smiled at Wang Hao.

"Compete!"

Wang Hao gritted his teeth, clearly not giving up.

Du Zhong nodded in satisfaction. He liked this!

And in front of everyone, Du Zhong, while maintaining a high-difficulty position, took his left hand off the ground and started doing push-ups with one hand, even faster and more stable.

Wow!

Everyone was stunned, looking at Du Zhong in disbelief. He could still continue, and with one hand, even faster, more stable, and more powerful!

Wang Hao looked at Du Zhong, thought for a moment, and then, with a determined bite of his lip, started doing push-ups with one hand, but his speed was clearly much slower than Du Zhong's.

After a hundred, just as everyone thought Du Zhong was finally done and about to get up, he actually retracted his little and ring fingers, leaving only his middle, index, and thumb fingers!

Under the disbelieving gaze of everyone, he continued to do push-ups frantically.

Still so fast, so stable, so powerful, so relaxed!

Is this even human?

He's already done three hundred, including a hundred with one hand!

Even with one hand, the area of support is smaller, and the load on the fingers is extremely high, far beyond what an ordinary person can bear, let alone someone who had just done three hundred push-ups!

Seeing this, Wang Hao gritted his teeth and also tried to do push-ups with three fingers.

But before he could even complete one, Du Zhong had already finished a hundred and was doing something that far exceeded their cognitive limits.

He actually retracted one hand and started doing push-ups with three fingers on one hand!

The same speed!

This scene completely shattered Wang Hao's confidence. His arms gave out, and he collapsed on the ground, his eyes fixed on Du Zhong without moving.

The other five people were already scared stiff. They thought that doing three hundred push-ups in one go was the human limit, but now they were witnessing someone constantly breaking their cognitive boundaries.

Another hundred!

After completing another hundred, Du Zhong stopped.

Everyone let out a slight sigh of relief. Finally, it was over. They were truly convinced; they couldn't help but be in awe of such a monstrous person!

But the next moment made their hearts leap to their throats again!

Du Zhong actually retracted his middle and thumb fingers, leaving only his index finger to support him, and continued doing push-ups!

Everyone's hearts rose and fell with Du Zhong's body, and the scene before them left them completely speechless.

Astonished, nothing but astonishment!

Is this even human?

Convinced! Completely convinced!

Another hundred push-ups, six hundred in total, completed in eight minutes!

At this point, Du Zhong's forehead was only slightly sweaty, as if he had just started warming up.

Looking at the six people who were already dumbfounded, Du Zhong waved his index finger in front of them and asked with a smile, "Convinced?"

"Convinced! Convinced!"

Everyone said, their eyes following Du Zhong's index finger, unable to imagine how such a small finger could bear so much!

"Since you're convinced, gather up!"

Du Zhong barked, and Wang Hao immediately got up from the ground. The six people lined up neatly in front of Du Zhong, standing straight, their eyes filled with respect.

Seeing this, Du Zhong nodded in satisfaction.

"Starting today, I will create a training plan for you!"

Looking at the six people in front of him, Du Zhong was dashing and upright, exuding a strong masculine aura.

"My team must be elite!" At this, Du Zhong's expression changed, and he said sternly, "Whoever slacks off will be kicked out. Of course, if you train seriously, there will be benefits!"

"Captain Du Zhong!"

Just recovering from his exhaustion, Wang Hao asked, "Do you mean that if we train seriously, we can get a raise?"

Wang Hao's words made the others' eyes light up!

In the entire hospital, the security guards had the lowest income. If it weren't for the low wages, they wouldn't be so lazy!

"As long as we can get a raise, I'll do any hard training!"

The group chimed in.

Du Zhong snorted coldly and said, "The salary is not my decision, but if you train seriously, I'll teach you a way to subdue enemies in one move!"

"Tch!"

The group scoffed.

Seeing this, Du Zhong walked up to Wang Hao and pulled out the baton from his waist.

"Do you know why I could become your superior as soon as I arrived?"

Du Zhong played with the baton.

Everyone looked at Du Zhong with disdain. In their eyes, Du Zhong had only gotten this position through connections. Although he had some strength, it didn't mean he was particularly skilled. After all, security guards relied on agility, not just strength.

"Because of strength!"

With a cold laugh, Du Zhong, under the disdainful gazes of the group, used both hands to grip the ends of the baton and then gave it a light snap.

"Crack!"

It broke!

With just a casual snap, the baton broke into two pieces!

This scene left Wang Hao and the other five people stunned, their faces full of disbelief.

Their batons were made of high-quality carbon steel, and the hardness was far beyond what an ordinary person could break. Yet, Du Zhong had broken it with just a casual snap?

"I'm really convinced!"

Wang Hao, somewhat dazed, muttered to himself. The other five people were also in shock, their faces full of admiration for Du Zhong!

"With this kind of strength, why be a security captain? You should be a bodyguard, making a fortune!"

The six people's eyes shone with hope!

Du Zhong gave a cold laugh and said, "If you want to reach this level, train hard. Strength isn't imagined; it's earned through practice. Only through repeated practice can you become strong!"

Hearing this, the six people nodded eagerly, like chickens pecking at grain.

"Stand at ease!"

Du Zhong barked.

"Align to the right!"

"Five kilometers for warm-up, go!"

As he spoke, the originally lazy six people straightened up, heads held high, and ran out in整齐的步伐. Du Zhong naturally followed beside them, observing their movements with a serious expression.

As the group jogged out, a young doctor crossed the hospital gate, glanced at the jogging security team, and then turned his gaze to Du Zhong, a mocking expression on his face.

"Du Yuhuo's second brother?"

The young doctor looked at Du Zhong, his lips curling, and said with a sneer, "I wondered who it was, just a little security guard!"

His voice was loud, and the entire security team, who had run a few meters away, heard it clearly!

Du Zhong and the six security guards beside him stopped and turned to look back.

Wu Haihua!

This young doctor was none other than Wu Haihua, who had firmly opposed Du Zhong and Gu Muer's cohabitation yesterday. Clearly, this guy was here to pick a fight over Du Zhong and Gu Muer's cohabitation!
