I Am A Prodigy 59 That Weirdly Irresistible Masked Man

Under normal circumstances, they would have felt nervous and put on a worried face. On that day, however, everyone was filled with a fighting spirit— eager to begin.

Even Lin Ao joined the ranks.

The weights they carried were originally at 50kgs, then added with another 50kg sandbag on their backs.

“50kgs is not heavy enough. Let me try 70kgs!” Ye Lingchen voiced out after giving it a try.

“If that’s the case I want another 20kgs as well!” Wu Yue too requested instantly.

“Nonsense! Training has to match your current condition. How can you compare yourself to me?” said Ye Lingchen.

Even though he was not a martial artist at that moment, his reputation within the troop was astounding. Nobody dared to refute his words.

Wu Yue scratched his head in embarrassment, “I’m not your match now, but you will be my target. I’m still the man who aims to be the king of martial artists!”

“Let’s start!”

They arched their backs and started the hike.

Although carrying a heavy burden, they were not showing the slightest hint of discontent. Instead, they followed behind Ye Lingchen step by step with a determined look in their eyes!

Fang Hong looked at the backs of the group, his eyes blurry. From this group of people, he found the most important quality of a martial artist— Passion!

In the blink of an eye, half a month’s training ended.

After bidding farewell to the group, Lin Ao sent Ye Lingchen back to school.

Ye Lingchen did not remove the weights from his limbs after the half month-long training. Instead, he added another 5kgs to each limb.

When Ye Lingchen opened the dormitory door, his roommates seemed like they just woke up from a dream. They immediately broke into bouts of happy screams.

“F*ck! Ye’zi, you’re finally back!”

“I haven’t seen you in half a month. You’re darker and lost weight! I missed you!”

“How was it? Was the training at the Warrior’s Department suffocating?”

Ye Lingchen smiled, “I’m fine, what about you guys? How was the martial training?”

“Hahaha, our class ranked first in the entire university for martial training. Even the university authorities praised us in public!” Xiang laughed, “The new instructor was way better than Sun Chao!”

Ye Lingchen nodded, “What were you guys watching earlier to be that absorbed?”

Speaking of that, all three of them revealed a weird and indescribable excitement on their face.

“Ye’zi, we found something unbelievable! You probably had no internet access while in the Warrior’s Department. The internet has gone crazy!”

Lil’ Gen’s face flushed red with excitement, “Come have a look!”

Having said that, he clicked on a video on the computer.

“This video is a teaser uploaded by Legend of the Heroine. When they were filming, they ran into a wolf. Luckily for them, one of the actors stepped out and saved the crew from harm!”

Potato’s eyes lit up, “Imagine the situation on the scene. It must be exhilarating!”

“Martial arts expert. That man is a martial arts expert!” Xiang exclaimed, “The experts are hidden amongst us!”

Ye Lingchen sat in front of the computer and went on Weibo.

The news was released three days ago, yet it remained on Weibo’s top news for three days straight without being replaced.

It had over 100,000 comments!

[I have a PhD in computer science. I’ll use both my top and bottom head as a guarantee that this had no signs of being photoshopped!]

[I have a PhD in Biology. Based on the size of the wolf in that footage, even if that’s not an alpha wolf, it’s close enough. Its combat prowess will outmatch ten adults!]

[Ahhhh, this world has real kungfu! Why was the face hidden? My sixth sense tells me that he is a handsome guy!!!]

[I’ve orgasmed with his face hidden. If he reveals his face I will ascend to heaven!]

[Have you guys seen Xiao Feifei? She should be nearby during that time. Hero saving a damsel in distress. From her looks, I can tell that she had probably fallen…]

…

Martial arts was something everyone was deeply passionate about that only existed in their imaginations. However, when it was displayed for all to see, it triggered an unimaginable uproar.

Of course, apart from those comments, there were also many sh*tposters.

[Of course that’s fake. A wolf’s strength, bite force, and dexterity is not something a human can compare with!]

[There’s a limit to bullsh*tting. Legend of the Heroine is obviously hyping this up. Shameless!]

[Only a retard will believe this. Kungfu? I think you’ve read too many novels!]

…

“These people must be ignorant. Why can’t kungfu be real? Ye’zi here knows it!”

If it were in the past, Potato would not have believed it that easily. However, after witnessing Ye Lingchen’s duel during martial training, he had no doubts about the existence of kungfu.

Lil’ Gen and Xiang nodded their heads in agreement as well.

“Ye’zi, can you tell what type of kungfu is that person in the video using? How is he compared to you?” Lil’ Gen asked out of curiosity.

Ye Lingchen shook his head and gave a simple reply, “I just have some slightly better physique. How can I compare to that?”

“I suppose so,” Lil’ Gen nodded. Martial arts experts were far too distant from the average human, added to his lack of comprehension of how strong Sun Wei was, Lil’ Gen could not objectively determine Ye Lingchen’s strength.

Ye Lingchen looked at the excitable trio and rubbed his nose.

Luckily he kept his face hidden during filming, otherwise his daily life would have been a lot more ‘interesting’.

At that same moment, countless viewers from all over the country were sitting in front of their TV, waiting.

Their curiosity piqued, dying to know more about the masked man.

What was originally a small dirt mound turned into a towering cliff. As Ye Lingchen did not use any equipment when they were filming, the scene looked all the more realistic. Running on walls, gliding through the air. That entrance stunned many audiences.

“The movements are smooth and connected. That person is definitely trained!”

“Wah, so handsome! I can’t take it anymore, I’ve decided to be his die-hard fan from now on!”

“I want to see what he looks like without the mask. Are there any spoilers? Does he reveal his face in the end?”

…

“Something’s off. I’m here to watch Xiao Feifei. Why would I end up staring at a masked man?”

“This masked man is weirdly irresistible! My attention would always unconsciously fall unto him.”

“WTF. He’s in the same scene with Xiao Feifei, but I somehow felt that Xiao Feifei seemed blurred and the scene is focused on him instead?”

“Although he has a mask over his face, his entire body seems to be captivating!”

“Is this the cameraman’s problem? Or there’s something wrong with my eyes?”

…

Very quickly, a top search titled “Something’s wrong with the masked man” appeared on Weibo.

[F*ck. So I’m not the only one facing this issue. At least I can be at ease now. For a moment there I thought I was developing interest in a guy!]

[Something is wrong with the masked man! If he could trigger such a response with his face hidden, can you imagine if he showed his face?]

[He’s definitely in the best actor class! His acting skills are off the charts. Each movement felt perfectly harmonized with the character in the TV series, and he could even steal the spotlight from Xiao Feifei!]

At that same moment, Li Tai was at the TV station waiting anxiously for the audience measurement results…
