Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Just as the mighty fist of the sturdy man was about to hit the young man’s delicate face, the young man suddenly tilted his head and dodged the man’s attack when only two or three centimeters were left.
The sturdy man’s fist smashed into the iron pillar behind the young man, and the iron pillar instantly bent. One could see that the burly man’s strength was fatal. The young man would probably die on the spot if it hit the young man’s face.
The man felt a slight pain when he hit the pillar. The young man took advantage of the strength of the pillar to jump up and hit the sturdy man’s face with his knee.
The young man hit the sturdy man, and he retreated a few steps.
The young man continued to pursue and quickly kicked the man’s weakest abdomen, but the sturdy man reacted and blocked the young man’s foot with his thick arm.
The sturdy man curved the pillar with his fist. Shi Qian looked at it and frowned.
Murong Jing said, “It’s to end the battle quickly. One will receive a generous reward if he can beat everyone within the stipulated time. This reward is enough for an ordinary person to spend their entire life.”
“What if you kill someone?” Shi Qian asked.
“All would sign a life and death contract before they fight on stage. One can only blame himself for being inferior.
“Of course, if the opponent was too strong and knew they were not strong enough to win, they could also choose to kneel and beg for mercy. This way, the other party would stop attacking.”
“However, from the looks of it, this young man probably wouldn’t choose to kneel and beg for mercy. Sigh, why do you need to use your life as a bet at such a young age?”
“There are too many people in this world who are willing to risk their lives for money,” Baili Xi said.
Shi Qian looked at the young man quietly and did not say anything.
The difference was huge in strength between the young man and the sturdy man, but the young man was agile. She felt that the young man would win.
“I think this young man will win,” She said after a while.
“I think so.” Murong Jing smiled.
The sturdy man had somehow injured the young man, but his injuries were even more grave after ten rounds or more.
The sturdy man initially looked down on the young man. But the young man attacked him several times, and these flustered and exasperated him. It was easier for him to reveal his flaws.
The young man kicked the sturdy man in the head and immediately fell on the stage after a few more rounds. The sturdy man could not get up.
The young man could get a prize if he won this round, although it wouldn’t be the grand prize. He would have to continue with fights if he wanted it.
The young man did not leave with the prize money. Instead, he chose to continue the competition.
Baili Xi looked at the young man in the ring. “This kid is quite greedy. He’s not afraid of being beaten to death.”
The young man continued to fight three more rounds. Injuries covered his thin body by the end of the last round. He could not even stand steadily. He could no longer compete.
However, the young man declared to continue when the host asked him if he wanted to continue.
The host smiled. “Alright, what a brave young man. We’ll continue with the next scene in 15 minutes.”
“Baili Xi, did you bring the body-strengthening pills?” Shi Qian frowned slightly.
Baili Xi turned to look at her and replied, “Yes! Why? Are you going to give the young man?”
“Give it to me!” Shi Qian stretched out her hand.
Baili Xi raised his eyebrows and looked at her suspiciously. “You’re not helping him because he’s handsome, right?”
Shi Qian rolled her eyes at him. “He won’t be able to last the next match in his current state. He’s still so young. Are we going to watch him die?”
“Qianqian, that was his choice. He has already won four games and received a lot of prize money. He’ll be fine if he takes this money and leaves now. But he chose to continue. He’s just too greedy..”
