Chapter 104 Winning Against Him with Cockfighting
"Surrender is impossible! Absolutely not!" Bahan said, straightening his back and standing on the battlefield where the two armies faced each other.
Before the dark-skinned outsider could even make a move, he spoke up first: "If we're going to duel, let's have a cockfight! Best of five!" As he spoke, Bahan from the Black Goose tribe picked up one of his legs, supporting his knee with one hand and pulling up his trouser leg with the other, and hopped around on one leg.
The dark-skinned outsider was initially confused, and it took countless gestures and explanations from the Black Goose tribe members for them to finally grasp the rules.
The dark-skinned foreign captain was clearly not good at cockfighting! This was the first time he had ever seen such a competitive game! When he tried to imitate Bahan from the Black Goose tribe by lifting one of his legs, he wobbled and almost fell to the ground several times.
"Our Black Goose tribe's Bahan is definitely going to win this time! But I don't think winning like this is very honorable! After all, the other guy is a complete novice who can't even hold his own legs properly! He's just learned how to fight cocks!"
Bahan of the Black Goose tribe was ready and awaiting the attack of the outsiders.
The foreign team leader, amidst the frantic shouts and encouragement of his teammates, hopped wildly on one leg toward Bahan of the Black Goose tribe.
The captain's goal was clear: he wanted to use this running start and charge to knock Bahan to the ground in one fell swoop.
Seeing the captain charging menacingly towards him, Bahan nimbly dodged to the side and, taking advantage of the dark-skinned foreign captain's momentum, delivered a powerful knee strike to the captain's rear, sending him sprawling to the ground and swallowing a mouthful of dirt!
"You little brat! You think you can use that momentum to knock me over? You're dreaming! Do you think I'd stand there like a wooden stake and let you knock me over? Do you know how many years I've been practicing this? You're really overestimating yourself by trying to break a rock with an egg!" Bahan, a member of the Black Goose tribe, finally seized the opportunity to speak! As if he hadn't shown off in decades, he was determined to keep up the act for at least twenty or thirty minutes!
The dark-skinned tribal captain sensed that Bahan intended to humiliate him. He struggled to his feet, switched legs and used the same method as before to charge at Bahan, a member of the Black Goose tribe, once again.
"You're just feeding me kills again! I don't even need to attack, I don't even need to defend! I don't even need to touch you! You're probably eating dirt now! You want to play with me? You're still too green!" Ba Han, as if he had never won before, once again launched into a crazy taunting mode.
The dark-skinned members of the other tribe, seeing their captain had lost two rounds in a row, began to complain incessantly: "This isn't fair! It's completely unfair! It's not fair at all! Our captain hasn't practiced much! It's best of five, and for the last two rounds, we want to change players! And no cockfighting! Our tribe members aren't good at cockfighting! We'll just have to fight!"
Upon hearing about the proposed martial arts contest, Bahan quickly interrupted, "Alright! I'll choose someone from our tribe who's skilled in martial arts to fight against a member of your dark-skinned foreign tribe! You can also change your opponent whenever you want! Just find the best fighter from your tribe!"
"No way! Our captain said he wants to have a match with you! No substitutions allowed! It'll be two rounds! That's fairer! If our captain wins both rounds, then you'll have to decide who wins and who loses and choose another method of competition! Only the final winner will be the real winner!"
"Alright!" Bahan from the Black Deer tribe thought to himself, when the dark-skinned outsider said he could choose the competition method for the final round, wasn't this just handing him a free win? If he chose cockfighting, wouldn't they be doomed? Even if he chose rock-paper-scissors, they couldn't win!
Ba Han was secretly delighted at this thought, but then he realized something was off! Was this kid really that stupid? Following this logic, even if he won the next two rounds, and Ba Han got to choose the method of competition in the last round, wouldn't Ba Han be guaranteed to win? Could it be that he didn't care about winning or losing, and just wanted to beat Ba Han up because he didn't like him?
Thinking about this, Ba Han still felt lingering fear: "How about this? I'll choose the middle round! You can choose the last two rounds!"
"No way! You get to choose the middle round! If you choose cockfighting again, you'll have a sure win! It's best of five, so you don't need to choose the last two rounds! Stop hesitating, let the fight begin!"
"Come on then! I'm not afraid of you!" Ba Han gritted his teeth and said fiercely, looking ready to take a beating.
The dark-skinned foreign captain didn't waste any words with Bahan. He rushed up, grabbed Bahan by the neck, pushed him to the ground, put his leg on top of him, and started punching him repeatedly.
At first, Bahan could still defend himself and could predict the trajectory of the black-skinned foreign captain's punches to some extent. However, after several of his punches missed their mark, the captain realized the importance of combining feints and real attacks. Before punching Bahan, he would first make a series of feints, or even two or three! In this way, Bahan would have no way to defend against them!
The dark-skinned foreign captain used a feint, and soon Bahan's nostrils were bleeding profusely.
The captain yelled as he hit him, "I'll teach you to be arrogant again! Are you still arrogant? Weren't you so tough? Why are you so weak now? Huh? Why are you weak? I'll beat you to death!"
Bahan couldn't take the beating from the dark-skinned foreign captain any longer, so he would occasionally kick his feet on the ground to see if he could shake the captain off him!
"Trying to shake me down? You're still too green! Get ready to be beaten!" After saying that, the captain unleashed a barrage of punches on Bahan from the Black Goose tribe, hitting his thighs, stomach, forehead, and face!
Bahan was beaten black and blue by the dark-skinned foreign captain. Throughout the round, he was either being beaten or on his way to be beaten.
After the first round, Bahan felt dizzy and lightheaded, and his eyes were swollen like sugar bubbles! How could he fight in the second round like this?
Bahan considered surrendering, but ultimately gritted his teeth and persevered. He decided to strike first at the start of the second round, using dirty tricks like gouging eyes and kicking groin! He wanted to take the dark-skinned foreign captain to the ground first, otherwise, if he was kept on the ground and rubbed like that, wouldn't he end up blinding himself?
With this in mind, Bahan prepared himself for a duel with the dark-skinned foreign captain.
With the sound of a bull horn, Bahan and the dark-skinned foreign captain began the second round of their battle.
Bahan took the initiative this time, charging forward and launching a two-dragon-fighting-pearl attack on the dark-skinned foreign captain!
The captain skillfully blocked with his arm, easily deflecting the attack. Unable to break through from the upper three positions, Bahan then launched a direct attack on the captain's lower body! With a single move, "Wild Monkey Steals the Peach," the dark-skinned foreign captain collapsed to the ground, wailing loudly!
