“It’s not easy to lift a 50 thousand- pound cauldron. Thousands of people register daily, but only a few can lift it!”
The burly man’s words caused many to doubt him. A 10 thousand-pound cauldron was way different from a 50 thousand- pound cauldron.
A lot of people could easily lift a 10 thousand-pound cauldron. However, they couldn’t even lift a 50 thousand- pound cauldron at all. Plus, one had to lift it over their head to succeed. It was obvious how difficult it was.
“You should consider it carefully. It’s not easy to lift a 50 thousand-pound cauldron,” the judge reminded.
“I’ve trained hard for a decade just for today. I’m determined to lift this 50 thousand-pound cauldron! You guys just need to watch me perform!” the burly man said confidently before walking over to the second cauldron.
The second cauldron was twice the size of the first cauldron. It was almost 10 feet tall.
One felt helpless just looking at it.
The burly man walked over to the 50 thousand-pound cauldron. After inspecting it for a while, he reached out and grabbed the base of the cauldron.
“Up you go!” the burly man shouted. Instantly, his muscles tensed as he exerted all his strength to lift the cauldron.
Surprisingly, he managed to lift the cauldron off the ground.
“What the heck! He actually lifted it.” Everyone’s expression turned to one of shock after they saw that.
However, in the next moment, the bronze cauldron suddenly dropped to the ground after being lifted a little.
The burly man’s first attempt had failed.
“What a shame. He almost managed to lift it.”
“He overestimated himself. I already told him he couldn’t do it, but he still insisted on challenging it.”
“No matter what, he’s still amazing to lift it a little.”
The contestants commented. Some of them felt pleased, while some pitied him.
The burly man heaved heavily. As he used too much energy, his eyes were a little bloodshot. Although he only managed to lift the cauldron by a little, he had already exerted much of his energy. It was indeed a challenge for one to be able to lift a 50 thousand-pound cauldron.
“Contestant 844 has failed to lift the 50 thousand-pound cauldron,” the judge announced expressionlessly.
In the past few days, many martial artists who successfully lifted the 10 thousand-pound cauldron tried to lift the 50 thousand-pound cauldron. However, most of them failed.
Thus, the burly man was considered quite impressive to be able to lift it a little.
“Wait for a moment! Let me challenge it for one more time! I can definitely succeed this time.” The burly man was unwilling to give up.
He had already managed to lift it. If he could give it his all and take a bet, he might have a chance to pass the test.
“That’s enough. You can’t lift the 50 thousand-pound cauldron.” The judge shook his head.
“I refuse to accept this! I want to try again!” The burly man directly stepped forward without waiting for the judge’s reply.
The man spat onto his palms and grabbed the large bronze cauldron’s base. He adopted a horse stance and channeled all his strength to his arms.
Instantly, the man’s arms swelled. His muscles bulged while his veins popped.
“Up you go!” The burly man gritted his teeth. His face was red as he lifted it with both of his hands.
The bronze cauldron vibrated twice before slowly rising from the ground.
In the end, the burly man was at his limit when the cauldron ascended 6 feet up. His feet trembled and his eyes became bloodshot.
Two seconds later, the burly man was unable to bear the weight any longer. He spat a mouthful of blood and dropped to the ground, unconscious.
