At first sight, Li Yufeng's thin and not very tall figure makes it hard to believe he can complete the task of climbing five floors along the drain pipe outside the building with his bare hands in just 10 seconds.
Beyond that, he can shoot a coin from 100 meters away and put together a disassembled gun in 20 seconds with his eyes covered.

However, he did not do well in physical fitness tests in the very beginning of his enlistment.
He ranked after most of his comrades on 5-kilometer run tests several times continuously, which made him quite uncomfortable and so he began to amplify his effort.
