Chapter 48 – Bragging Tempo
The spectators immediately cheered, while some howled in grief. Furthermore, some even cursed at the thin man. These were obviously the people that had lost money.
“How is it? Do you need to see a few more matches?”
Zhang Zhi Long asked with a smile.
Zhang Zhi Long thought highly of this little apprentice brother, so he paid more attention to him.
Wei Xiao Bei shook his head, “Senior brother, if this is the level of skill onstage, then there’ll be no pressure.”
Luckily, Wei Xiao Bei’s voice was not too loud. If Violent Bear on stage had heard it, he might’ve just flown into rage and bee an actual violent bear.
“Alright, just try out this place for today.”
Zhang Zhi Long nodded and went to find a black shirted middle age man. After talking a bit, they both walked over.
The black shirted man looked at Wei Xiao Bei and nodded, “Ok, you should know the rules right? For every match you play, it will be 500 yuan. If you win, there will be an additional 500 yuan. You will also get an extra two percent of the profit. However, if you die or bee crippled, it’s your own business!”
When Wei Xiao Bei heard it, he felt that it was not a bad proposition. If he won a match he would earn 1,000 yuan and an extra two percent. This was even higher than his monthly salary before.
Fighting underground matches were truly profitable! Wei Xiao Bei nodded in consent. He pletely ignored the man’s last sentence.
One thing he did not know was that 500 yuan was the lowest he could earn in this profession. A few larger underground fighting arenas would provide more than 5,000 yuan. Moreover, those international casinos that had underground fighting would provide at least 10,000 yuan.
Naturally, Wei Xiao Bei was so poor that he felt that 500 yuan was already not bad.
Seeing Wei Xiao Bei nod his head, the black shirted man indicated him to follow.
The four of them circled the stage and came to a big hall. On four sides of the big hall were rooms, some labelled lobby, restroom, locker room, etc. At the entrance, there were two men wearing sleeveless skin tight shirts. When they saw the black shirted man, they immediately greeted, “Good day Boss!”
“En. Little three, this little brother intends to go up. It’s his first time, so arrange things for him.”
The man on the left nodded, “No problem, leave it to me boss.”
Afterwards, Zhang Zhi Long and Yao Wu waited in the big hall, while the man brought Wei Xiao Bei into the locker. He gave Wei Xiao Bei shorts and shoes that worn for boxing petitions.
While Wei Xiao Bei was changing, the man began to explain some ground rules.
There were only a few rules in underground fighting. Naturally, they were still followed in order to keep some sort of order.
For example, this arena required the petitors to stop attacking if the opponent lost the ability to resist.
This rule was not really that applicable. After all, judging when the opponent loses their ability to resist was very subjective.
This was only a rule drawn up to decrease the amount of deaths.
This place was Cui Hu City. If there were too many people who died from underground fighting, then this arena would not be able to stay open for much longer.
As for the rules on not attacking the referee and the spectators, these were made for the benefit of the arena.
There were almost next to no rules when a fighter was on stage. As long as they didn’t kill or disable their opponents, anything went.
When Wei Xiao Bei returned to the big hall after changing, he saw a robust man wearing a sleeveless shirt and boxing shorts, currently jumping and letting out straight punches and hooks from time to time.
Seeing Wei Xiao Bei gaze at the robust man, the man couldn’t help but smile, “That person is your opponent. His nickname is Homicidal Demon King. He has fought in this arena for three matches with two wins and one loss. His strength ain’t that bad.”
Wei Xiao Bei let out an odd smile.
This is called not bad? How meaningless. One ground sweeping kick would probably be enough to make him fall down.
The robust man had a height of
