Upon hearing this, the double-swordsman was immediately stunned.
I initially thought it was a provocative remark, but it turned out to be a statement of fact.
"Hey kid...you're using a meme, aren't you!"
The man with the two swords brandished his swords and slashed towards Zhou Xiao's location.
His fierce and menacing demeanor, as if determined to cleave Zhou Xiao in two, immediately ignited the emotions of the onlookers.
People who have lived in the lower classes for too long just like to watch action-packed, visceral content; perhaps only in this way can they get some stimulation to their numb hearts.
"Go ahead and fight!"
"Down with him!"
"Guide him!"
Amidst the cheers of the audience, the double-swordsman on the stage was also extremely satisfied. As a henchman of a club owner who made his living off audience popularity, he needed to attract as much attention as possible.
This little one... couldn't he have taken care of it easily?!
The man with the two swords thought to himself.
Just as he was about three or five steps away from Zhou Xiao, he suddenly felt an immense sense of crisis. This soul-piercing fear made his legs go weak for some reason, and then with a "thud," he slid to his knees and knelt down in front of Zhou Xiao.
"?"
The sudden change caught everyone present completely off guard.
what happened?
Was it too fast? I didn't see it clearly.
...
On the arena, Zhou Xiao lowered his head slightly, looked at the spot where the double-swordsman was kneeling, and raised an eyebrow.
What are you going to do?
Faced with this question, the man with two swords swallowed hard and, almost unconsciously, said:
"I want to donate the knife."
"?"
Offering a knife?
Um.
You know how to offer a knife.
Zhou Xiao could only comment that the double-swordsman in front of him reacted fairly quickly; he almost made a move himself.
"In this round, the one with the Kun wind wins!"
As the host's voice rang out, the audience finally snapped out of their daze and began to accuse the "Double-Knife Guy" of rigging the match.
The dual-wielder didn't offer much of a rebuttal.
All he could say was... "If you're so good, you do it; I'm not really good at it."
He always trusted his intuition the most. Just now, the Kunfengzhe in front of him was already preparing to draw his sword. That sense of danger... he felt that the Kunfengzhe was about to cut open his vital parts.
There's no need to gamble on this risk.
How could someone earning only two or three thousand a month possibly risk their life...?
...
Although the Double-Knife Guy was defeated, the atmosphere at the scene did not diminish at all. The club owner's thugs backstage said that the Double-Knife Guy was a weakling and surrendered before he even had a chance to fight back.
After Zhou Xiao's confirmation, the arena battle continued...
The ensuing battles shocked everyone present time and again, redefining their understanding of the world.
One cut...
Just one cut.
Anyone who comes will be slashed.
The young Kunfeng Zhe on the arena displayed such strength that no one could withstand a single strike from him, whether they were a modified mech or an ordinary human...
The audience gradually went from cheering to becoming numb, and their gazes toward Zhou Xiao became increasingly blank.
The only one who remained calm was the man with two swords. At that moment, he was extremely grateful that he had come down from the arena unharmed.
This ruthless person... he'd stab anyone who came near.
That way, the audience won't be able to tell that he's a noob.
...
Question him, understand him, become him!
After Zhou Xiao's nineteen-game winning streak, the group of thugs behind the scenes gradually came to understand the Double-Blade Master.
He possesses great wisdom.
real.
...
"Nobody's here? If nobody's here, then I'll collect my bonus."
Seeing that no one was actually going up into the ring, Zhou Xiao easily obtained a considerable sum of money.
"I feel a little embarrassed taking this money," Zhou Xiao thought to himself, weighing the heavy money bag in his hand.
Under the watchful eyes of the audience, Zhou Xiao left the fight club with the money bag in his hand.
He came as an unknown man, but when he left, the name Kunfengzhe was etched in the hearts of everyone present.
...
"Kunfeng Zhe!"
As soon as Zhou Xiao stepped out the door, the club owner, Scott, hurriedly came to greet him. The old man was quite old, and he rubbed his hands together, looking at Zhou Xiao with a smile.
What do you want?
"I'm Scott, the club owner. There are very few promising newcomers like you. You seem to be short of money. Want to sign me? Come box at the club, and I'll give you a share of the profits..."
Hearing Scott's words, Zhou Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly.
"Signing a contract is out of the question, I don't have the time for that... As for free events like arena battles, I can come and get the prize money for free."
"That's enough, that's enough."
Upon hearing that Kunfengzhe was interested in the arena competition, Scott readily agreed, as he had been planning to use the arena competition as Kunfengzhe's main selling point.
...
The largest clinic in Panyan Town.
Um...
Or rather, it should be said to be the only clinic in Panyan Town.
Doctor Natasha was somewhat surprised to see a group of injured people who had come from the fight club enter the clinic.
Although the fight club usually sends in some injured players, there are definitely not as many as today.
Natasha briefly examined everyone's injuries and noticed something strange.
These wounded soldiers didn't have many fighting scars; instead, they had mostly straight cuts, some on their arms, some on their chests, and some even on their groins...
All of them were external injuries...
"You were all... defeated by the same person?" Natasha, who seemed gentle and kind, asked.
“Yes…” one of the injured players said, clutching his groin, “It was that Kunfeng who single-handedly took down the entire club and took the prize money.”
"If he wants to take the prize money, fine, but he had to defeat us in one move. How are we supposed to compete in the club after this..."
Kunfeng...
Upon hearing this nickname, Natasha remained expressionless, but in her mind she was already wondering if she had heard of this person before.
"Is this a new player for your club?"
“No… I don’t know where he came from, I’ve never seen him before. It’s really because he launched a sneak attack and showed no sportsmanship, otherwise I could definitely have stopped him from striking me down…” another wounded soldier answered Natasha’s question.
Never seen this before...?
Natasha pursed her lips and then began to treat the wounded.
Medicine bandages for external injuries are scarce underground, so treating these wounded soldiers is quite resource-intensive.
Despite Natasha's repeated advice to club owner Scott not to organize those dangerous events, Scott simply wouldn't listen.
In the eyes of unscrupulous businessmen... money is more important.
...
Inside the Goethe Hotel in Panyan Town.
Kunfengzhe Zhou Xiao used the money he had just earned to book a room. As far as the eye could see, it was a very simple and shabby room, certainly not as good as a train, but the underground environment was still quite good.
...
P.S.: Silver Wolf went astray, so sad, boohoo.
