Chapter 299: Chapter 299: The Push-Up Battle_1

“But what if you lose?” Xu Fan asked with a mischievous smile as he turned to face Li Niu.

A fierce look flashed across Li Niu’s face as he spoke to Xu Fan, “If I lose, I’ll kneel down and call you ‘Grandpa’ three times!”

“Okay!” Just you wait, Xu Fan left behind an exaggeratedly elongated smile and turned, carrying Tongtong, toward the competition area.

“All right, members of Group A, please take your positions for the push-up challenge,” a staff member instructed towards Xu Fan’s direction.

Xu Fan, with Tongtong in tow, quickly arrived at the venue prepared by the organizers. At this moment, Li Niu also arrived with his own Li Xiaoniu, giving Xu Fan a challenging look.

Even though Li Niu had been defeated by Xu Fan and Tongtong in the squirrel walking event, after mulling it over, Li Niu only figured that it was Xu Fan and Tongtong’s coordination that had won out. After all, that event mostly tested teamwork, and Li Niu believed that if Li Xiaoniu hadn’t slipped at the last second, Xu Fan would have definitely come in second and not be riding high above him.

The previous squirrel walking event might have primarily been about parental cooperation with their child, but this event was purely a test of the father’s strength.

As long as his strength was there, cooperation or no cooperation, he was sure to win the championship.

In Li Niu’s eyes, Xu Fan’s build was just a skinny stick. If Xu Fan’s strength could surpass his own, then it would be akin to a sheep eating a wolf.

“Everyone, get ready in position, our scorers are in place, prepare to count!” the staff member declared, and the other staff members, donned in red vests, began guiding the participants into their push-up stance.

Several men participating in the push-up challenge braced their hands on the ground, getting into position, while their children placed their small hands on their fathers’ shoulders.

The scorers, wearing red vests, helped each child climb onto his father’s back and then gestured an ‘okay’ sign.

A staff member holding a stopwatch saw all the contestants ready and bellowed “Start!” hitting the stopwatch button firmly.

And yet, Li Niu hadn’t even reached his limit.

The scorer at his side murmured continuously, so Li Niu, after listening to the scores of those around him, realized that hardly anyone was a match for him; the one with the highest count had managed only a dozen or so and was already struggling. Therefore, Li Niu was still the king in terms of strength.

Li Niu smiled smugly, his arms unyielding, he kept huffing and puffing through his push-ups, while many of his fellow teammates were already running out of steam, with someone occasionally collapsing with a plop, being helped up by the scorer.

Huffing and puffing, Li Niu was still going on, while the scorer at his side faithfully kept track of his score.

73, 74, 75, 76...

Before Li Niu could feel proud, he saw the scorer by Xu Fan in the distance, who had been silent since the start of the competition, suddenly bellow “100!”

“Damn!” Li Niu hurriedly looked over at Xu Fan’s area.

He had been blocked by others before, so Li Niu didn’t know the situation over there with Xu Fan. Now that all the other competitors had dropped out due to exhaustion, only Xu Fan and Li Niu were left on the field.

Now, Li Niu could see Xu Fan’s posture for himself.

His push-up form was even more textbook than Li Niu’s, a professional athlete, and although there appeared to be no muscle on his body, somehow there was a tremendous strength allowing him to continue his push-ups in a steady rhythm.

Logically, after doing it for so long, others with Xu Fan’s physique would have collapsed from fatigue by now, but Xu Fan showed no sign of tiredness at all. His arms continued to exert force fiercely, and his movements remained precise and perfect, not once deforming despite the long duration.

And the adorable little girl lying on Xu Fan’s back didn’t experience any jolts from his movements, as stable as if she were lying in her own bed at home, whereas Li Xiaoniu, on Li Niu’s back, though not in danger of falling off, was being shaken quite dizzy by Li Niu’s ups and downs.

Li Niu immediately became anxious.
