Chapter 50: Physics LV1!
The lever turns, and the weight plates move up and down in rhythm with slightly heavy, steady breathing.
Every fifteen cycles, after a "clatter," that breathing suddenly becomes rapid and intense.
At this moment, a female voice appears. Although it carries a nasal tone clearly caused by a cold, the reading remains quite clear, and the previously intense breathing gradually begins to calm down...
It gives the distinct impression of a martial arts hero who has been poisoned and injured, and every time he is about to lose control of the toxin's eruption, he needs a heroine to step in and provide treatment with a new-age, new-concept "sound art."
It's just that this "sound art" is a bit strange.
Things like "F" or "V" are fine, but once you add pronunciations like "ρ," "sinθ," or "Ω," paired with prefixes like "..."
It almost makes one want to shout—
"You guys should just stick to the traditional method of healing with your physical bodies; it doesn't matter if you take off your clothes or lose your innocence! This 'sound art' has a built-in hypnotic effect; it makes people feel drowsy just listening to it!"
Regardless of others, the hero can naturally withstand this "sound art," otherwise he wouldn't be called a hero.
Lu Mingfei listened intently to the problem Su Xiaoqiang read out, and after barely making out the diagram she displayed before him, he struggled to think as his breathing gradually steadied and his brain's cognitive ability returned...
He finally gave the answer.
"Choose C."
"... Correct."
Su Xiaoqiang didn't even need to flip to the back to check the answer; her academic performance was excellent, ranking in the top ten of the grade, and she could go to Qinghua University or Peking University, it just depended on whether she wanted to.
Although she had once written a cheat sheet on her thigh and worn a short skirt to take an exam, that was a liberal arts exam before the streaming of subjects, which wasn't important, and it just had a flavor of being "willful and reckless."
As for science subjects... in most cases, except for Biology, making cheat sheets for science exams is basically useless. Even if one were allowed to bring a book in for an open-book exam, the improvement in grades would likely be negligible.
After receiving confirmation from Su Xiaoqiang, Lu Mingfei's rest period between sets had just run out; he took a deep breath and began to continue his sets.
Sweat soaked his clothes, sticking his hair into strands, and visible fatigue was reflected all over his body.
Yet he was still persisting!
Because—
【Through diligent Learning, your 【Physics】 level has increased, gaining 1 point of Proficiency】
99/100.
The big fish was about to take the bait; he was just one final step away!
"Hoo... hoo..."
Su Xiaoqiang looked at Lu Mingfei, her expression somewhat complex.
At first, when she opened Lu Mingfei's "Five Three Physics," she was actually a bit surprised.
Fake effort and real effort are actually very easy to distinguish; one can basically tell at a glance.
If this "Five Three" were filled with dense writing, specifically marked and outlined with different colored pens, with almost no blank space on an entire page at a glance, and all sorts of neat notes and problem-solving ideas.
Su Xiaoqiang would only sneer, close the book, and throw it back to Lu Mingfei, not wasting any time at all.
For liberal arts, taking notes and solving problems like that might be acceptable, but for science...
Who are you putting on a show for!
Su Xiaoqiang really guessed that about Lu Mingfei at first, because she herself had done strength training to failure and knew how the brain felt in that state... and at the same time, to study and solve problems?
Too exaggerated!
So exaggerated that it felt like a performance.
Since it was a performance, it was very likely a full act, so one could see through it at a glance from the marks in this "Five Three"!
But when Su Xiaoqiang opened the "Five Three," she immediately realized that Lu Mingfei was at least seriously working on the problems—
The solution processes for various problems were not neat or standard; they were very sloppy. Most only listed a few formula conversions, and some didn't even have formulas, directly arriving at the key data, with the calculation process nowhere to be seen.
But that was enough.
Being able to see the general problem-solving approach was fine. Doing problems yourself isn't an exam; wouldn't writing so neatly and in such detail be a waste of time? As long as the answer is correct, it's OK!
This is the normal way to grind through science problems.
As a result, Su Xiaoqiang became even more curious.
Since grinding through "Five Three" wasn't a performance, then this "Fitness + problem solving"... could it actually be real?
Impossible, right? Yes, absolutely impossible!
But Lu Mingfei completely shattered her doubts with his actions, because he was really solving the problems!
Although limited by basic conditions to only doing some multiple-choice questions, and each rest period between sets basically only allowing for one problem, but... he really did solve them!
Multiple-choice questions might have the suspicion of a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse, but with such a high number of questions and a one-hundred-percent accuracy rate, it basically couldn't be luck.
Memorizing the answers in advance?
Su Xiaoqiang skipped around and picked many problems, even temporarily changing the data and making up answers herself, yet Lu Mingfei could still answer correctly.
In that case, it could only be real ability.
It's no wonder Su Xiaoqiang found it so unbelievable, having to use so much elimination.
Who is Lu Mingfei?
The deep impression left over the past two and a half years was still lingering in her mind, and yet now, in just three days, only three days!
You tell me that, aside from the gossip on the Shilan Middle School Campus Forum, this kid is also a learning genius... no, this is no longer a level that can be described as a genius; this should be called a freak!
A freak who can solve physics problems during rest periods of a fitness set to failure, with a one-hundred-percent accuracy rate!
If she hadn't verified it herself, Su Xiaoqiang wouldn't have believed it; she wouldn't even have had the interest to listen to it as a joke, because it was too absurd!
At the same time, a thought inevitably surfaced in her mind.
Since you could do this... then what the hell were you doing all this time!
Thinking carefully about that gossip, Lu Mingfei's change seemed to start from... rejecting Chen Wenwen.
Could Chen Wenwen be so terrifying that she easily suppressed an emperor under her skirt for two and a half years?
As a rival who often bickered with Lu Mingfei, Su Xiaoqiang's train of thought was actually somewhat inevitably aligning with his.
There was no help for it; his train of thought had to keep up, or he wouldn't be able to win the argument, and Su Xiaoqiang wasn't the kind of rich young lady who liked to use money and status to pressure others. She was the "Little Heavenly Maiden," and a Little Heavenly Maiden should have the pride that matched her title!
Lu Mingfei didn't know what Su Xiaoqiang was thinking; fitness strength training was already exhausting enough, not to mention that he was doing failure sets.
Sweat emerged densely from his pores, his body's automatic temperature regulation program continued to function, and the beads of sweat gathered together, finally breaking past the limit of his eyelashes, about to flow into his eyes...
"Do you have a sweat towel?"
Su Xiaoqiang, who had been staring blankly at Lu Mingfei, noticed this and subconsciously turned back to ask.
In the distance, Chen Shu, who had been chatting happily with the female coach, gave a start and hurried to the side to rummage through his bag. Just as he was about to take out a towel, he caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye, paused his movements, and stuffed it back to the very bottom.
He said with feigned annoyance: "Oh dear, I forgot to bring one! I'll go buy one right now..."
"Forget it, use mine."
Su Xiaoqiang naturally didn't notice Chen Shu's little maneuver; she waved her hand, stood up, went to get the towel that was still hanging on the treadmill, and handed it to Lu Mingfei with a slightly unnatural expression.
"Here."
Lu Mingfei looked seriously at the towel held out before his eyes for two seconds, then looked up at Su Xiaoqiang.
He turned his head and looked out the window.
"Strange, the sky is dark, and the sun didn't rise from the west..."
"Hmph."
Su Xiaoqiang gave a light huff; she had always been one to take responsibility for her actions. "I admit I misunderstood you before; this is compensation!"
Lu Mingfei looked somewhat dazed at the towel, which looked expensive just from its fabric, and suddenly laughed: "Does this mean... you're giving it to me?"
"Yeah, do you want it or not?"
Su Xiaoqiang was losing face and said impatiently.
"Let me tell you, don't you go getting an advantage and then acting coy. Although I admit I had a tiny little misunderstanding about you, the compensation ends here; I won't help you wipe your sweat, don't you even think about it!"
"Don't worry, I was just thinking that if this towel were taken to be sold, it could probably be auctioned for a sky-high price, maybe with a tag saying it was used by the Little Heavenly Maiden... at least ten thousand!"
Lu Mingfei laughed weakly.
"You dare?" Su Xiaoqiang's bright eyes widened.
"Just a joke, how could I bear to?"
Lu Mingfei said casually, took the towel, slammed it onto his face to wipe his sweat, and even gave a thumbs up.
"I'm keeping it as a family heirloom!"
Su Xiaoqiang, as expected, let out an "Ew," and looked at Lu Mingfei with that familiar look of someone looking at trash.
But other than that, she didn't have much of a reaction.
That was just Lu Mingfei. Although he had indeed changed her perspective in other aspects, this mouth of his, which couldn't go a day without being snarky, would probably never change!
In the distance, the female coach asked Chen Shu in a low voice.
"How are you so practiced at this?"
"Eh, keep it low-key, keep it low-key, it's about helping others achieve their goals, don't expose me..."
"I wanted to ask earlier, your choice of words, did you really only finish primary school?"
"Ahem, about that, it's true that my education is only primary school, but later in the military, I did some further studies..."
"Wow, you were a soldier?"
"Yes, for a period of time, then I ran into some things..."
"What things?"
"Hmm, wouldn't it be bad to talk about this during work hours? Let's wait until we get off work and chat over a late-night snack? I know a barbecue place that's very good."
"Okay."
After wiping his sweat, Lu Mingfei soon continued to cycle between strength training and Learning to solve problems.
Finally, as the fitness time was about to end, after having gone through who knows how many more solutions—
