“Ask me to concede?
Why don’t you concede?” Xiang Yu acted like he was ready to risk his life for money.
“Hmph!
Courting death.” The muscular man snorted coldly and threw a punch towards Xiang Yu.
He didn’t use his full strength with this punch; it was just a probing strike to test Xiang Yu’s reaction speed.
Xiang Yu stood there, was struck by the fist, and sent flying to the ground.
The scene erupted once again—just like everyone had anticipated, this kid was no match for the muscular man.
The muscular man stood there dumbfounded with surprise, he hadn’t even touched him, so how did he knock him down?
Could it be that he was already that powerful, or was his opponent just too weak?
At the scene, Tie Zhuzi saw Xiang Yu get hit and was eager to rush up and kill the muscular man.
He had already made up his mind to follow Xiang Yu to the death; if anyone dared to lay a hand on Xiang Yu, he would spare no effort to kill them.
Shi Jian hurriedly held him back; he had sparred with Xiang Yu and knew Xiang Yu’s martial skills.
It wasn’t possible for him to be taken down just like that—there had to be another reason.
Based on his understanding of Xiang Yu, there was no telling what Xiang Yu would resort to.
Lan Tingting, perched above the cage, clasped her mouth with her hands.
Although she knew Xiang Yu was formidable, everyone who fought here was tough.
Xiang Yu climbed up from the ground, covering his face, and pointed at the muscular man and yelled, “How can you be so dishonorable?
Don’t you know you’re supposed to announce your strike before throwing a punch?
Have you no shame?
And to think you call yourself a fighter; why don’t you just go home and sell sweet potatoes…”
Xiang Yu, full of righteous indignation, ranted at the muscular man until he was nearly driven mad by rage, while the audience members were shocked speechless by Xiang Yu’s words.
This was an underground fighting market—no one cared about chivalry here.
“You shameless person, do you see what is written behind you?” Xiang Yu pointed behind him.
Curiosity piqued, the muscular man wondered if there really were any rules.
He couldn’t help but look back.
Just at that moment, Xiang Yu swiftly moved forward and kicked the muscular man in the chest, sending him flying two meters back to the ground.
Xiang Yu closed in quickly, grabbing his head and making as if he was about to twist it.
“I concede, I concede…” the muscular man cried out in panic.
If Xiang Yu really twisted, his life would be over, and having signed the death waiver, Xiang Yu was free to do as he pleased.
“Do you admit defeat?” Xiang Yu gripped the man’s head and asked.
“I admit it, I admit it…” the muscular man shouted desperately.
Everyone at the scene was stunned; they had been watching fights and betting for a while, but they had never seen a match like this before.
Shi Jian and Tie Zhuzi quickly sat down and then pretended they didn’t know Xiang Yu.
They were truly embarrassed by Xiang Yu’s actions.
The audience started to curse, calling Xiang Yu shameless and the muscular man incompetent for being so easily tricked.
The place erupted into noise and was on the brink of chaos.
But the fact remained before them—Xiang Yu had won, and he had done it with ease.
Xiang Yu let go of the muscular man and chuckled twice, “Do you want to continue fighting?”
“Thank you for showing mercy.
I was being unreasonable earlier,” the muscular man said with a fist salute, “I’ve lost.”
Xiang Yu hadn’t expected the muscular man to actually not be that despicable.
He just nodded and kept silent.
The eight competitors, four matches were over.
Two of these matches had been beyond anyone’s expectations.
Next up were two groups of four for another round of battles.
Among them, two people, upon seeing Xiang Yu like this, both competed to be his opponent.
If lucky, there was a good chance of defeating Xiang Yu.
In the end, they decided by drawing lots.
The thin man who had started out didn’t argue; he just stood there calmly the entire time.
The next round was between the thin man and another competitor; surprisingly, the thin man won.
At this point, people were no longer surprised.
With ‘precedent’, they believed anything could happen.
Regarding Xiang Yu’s match, it once again astonished everyone.
He suddenly launched a sneak attack with a kick that toppled his opponent, then twisted the other’s head, winning the match.
People didn’t know where Xiang Yu’s initial talk of chivalry had gone.
But Xiang Yu didn’t care about that at all; as long as the victory was easy, that was better than anything.
The next match was between Xiang Yu and the thin man, both of whom were originally not favored by others.
But now they had made it to the final, proving that gambling would eventually lead to loss, with too many surprises involved.
“Ready?” the host’s attitude was not as good as it had been at the start, probably because Xiang Yu’s victory had disrupted his original plans.
He wouldn’t believe that Xiang Yu could win no matter what, although the thin man had won, but it was by actual strength, and although he seemed weak, he was actually very powerful.
He was now hoping that the thin man would knock Xiang Yu out with one punch.
Seeing that both Xiang Yu and his opponent nodded, the host and referee loudly announced the start and then stepped out to lock the cage.
“How do you want to fight?” Xiang Yu asked.
The thin man hadn’t come forward to fight him earlier, which suggested that his character was decent.
Moreover, upon closer inspection, he was not as thin as he had appeared initially; it was just that his slimness was highlighted when compared to the muscular man from before.
“Any way is fine, I have to win this match,” the man said with an indifferent expression but with resolute eyes, a thirst for victory.
“Why must you win?
If it’s money you need, I can help you,” Xiang Yu wasn’t sure why, but he had a good feeling about the man in front of him.
“I indeed need money, a large sum of money.
My mother is in the hospital, and I must save her,” the man said softly, and then threw a punch towards Xiang Yu.
“You’re saving someone, and I am too.
Do you see that girl up there?
She is my friend,” Xiang Yu dodged the other’s punch and said softly.
At that moment, the man suddenly stopped his punch and stared blankly, then raised his head to look upward, and saw Lan Tingting looking down worriedly.
“Is she your girlfriend?” the man’s gaze suddenly grew dim as he asked.
“No, but I must save her.
There are many ways to make money, it’s not necessary to fight in underground boxing, where a slight mishap could end your life.
Then, who would take care of your mother?” Xiang Yu’s words were sincere.
The man sighed softly, his head down, then looked up at Lan Tingting again before turning to the cage door.
“You won,” he said, then glanced at the host, preparing to concede.
At this, the crowd went wild.
Xiang Yu, this shameless fellow, had somehow managed to make his opponent concede.
Could it be that he relied on his mouth to fight in underground boxing?
“Bastards, just fight already.”
“Thin man, don’t listen to him, he’s deceiving you.
If you step down now, you won’t get any money.”
“Right, don’t listen to him, he’s tricking you.”
The crowd shouted uncontrollably.
The host walked over and confirmed again, “Do you really concede?”
