Chapter 667 The Competition

However, the real world was much more different than that. Take for an example a Cheater. Factors such as size of the animal, muscle density, bone density, terrain advantage, wind levels, temperature levels of the day and also adrenaline spike in relation to the amount of energy consumed in that particular animal all amounted to the kind of juiced speed that the animal would be able to produce in a chase.

Of course, the relative speed of the Cheater was generated as a result of studying many Cheaters. But it was not enough to account for the many possibilities occurring in real time. 

That was the same thing for the Humming bird. Master Lucian had been very specific with the kind of bird, its nature, habits, weight of the bird, the length of its beak, the expanse of the bird\'s wings and even accounting for the temperature and humidity of the environment.

All of which were going to be essential influential factors of the amount of times that it flapped its wings. 

The only thing Lenny had to do at the time was to watch and count the amount of times that the wings of the bird flapped its wings. 

This was a nearly impossible task. In fact, for the normal man, it was impossible. After all, A humming bird\'s wings flapped an average of 720 to 5400 times per minute when hovering.

Master Lucian had a timer by his side. This timer was for five minutes. 

The task was for Lenny to observe and keep his concentration on the Humming bird\'s wings for a good five minutes. 

As one would expect, this was a very frustrating point in Lenny\'s life. 

"Master Lucian... its... Its impossible. Such a task can not be done!" he stated in assurance of his words. 

Master Lucian, ever sly in his words and confident in his ability chuckled a bit, "Really? Are you sure that it can\'t be done?" 

Lenny nodded without hesitation. 

"Okay! Let\'s make a deal, If I do it, you carry that Boulder over there on your head and go around the mountain of the monastery seven times everyday for the rest of the month."

"And if you don\'t?" lenny asked. 

Master Lucian massaged his white beards, "I\'ll do the same, and I\'ll even scream \'I am a FOOL and Lenny is the Boss of Me\'."

That last part, Lenny did not think was necessary. However, he could not help but look at the boulder that was at a corner. 

This boulder weighed half a ton and essentially was the standard boulder used by pupils for training. 

Of Course, like most things in this monastery, the normal person could not hope to achieve such a feat of training with it or even walking a couple of steps. 

However, The students in this place had trained their bodies beyond the normal, achieving feats people of the outside world only saw in story books. 

From their diet to their training methods, it was all special. 

Training under master Lucian, Lenny was pushed far beyond the ordinary. 

Lenny looked at the Boulder and back at the old master, especially at the smirk on his face. His heart really told him not to do the deal, but he had been through a kind of hell training under master Lucian and did not mind getting back at the old man for all the suffering he had experienced. 

lenny chuckled a bit as he nodded, "you got yourself a deal old man!" 

Both of them shook hands. However, at this point, lenny realized that they was no way for him to know whether the old man was going to cheat or not. 

Master Lucian understood his worries, with a wave of his hand, he ordered for a student to get him an item in his study. 

This was a box and it was opened before Lenny\'s eyes. 

"Nice! who could have though that the old man get\'s delivery in such a place, I thought this place was not supposed to exist."

Master Lucian chuckled, "don\'t worry, I know a guy that knows a guy." 

Afterwards, the box was opened revealing a huge camera. Master Lucian went on to explain. 

"This Camera, i had it specially made for this occasion. It did cause a significant sum of money, but it is still worth it. Set it up!" 

Lenny nodded and gladly did so. On one side was the camera to observe the humming bird, and by the side of the Camera, was master Lucian on the same boulder that was an essential item of their bet.

Master Lucian stroked his long white beard, exploding an air of confidence and charisma from his person. 

Nevertheless, Lenny was sure that he was going to win. 

To ensure that there was no cheating, Lenny was the person that opened the cage of the Humming bird, leading it to the spot for it to enjoy honey. 

The timer by the side began. 

For five whole minutes, Lenny watched as Master Lucian and the camera faced the bird.

However, master Lucian was nonchalant about the process, even removing his eyes from the Humming bird a couple of times, for him to enjoy his tea.

Instantly, Lenny assumed that he was going to win. After all, everything that he had seen so far concluded to his win. 

However, after the five minutes were off, Master Lucian gave the number. Lenny had the privilege of watching the video of the competition by himself. 

The results were surprisingly not as he had thought they would be. Master Lucian had been spot on. 

Lenny could have sworn that they was some kind of cheating involved, but the entire thing had been on camera....
