58 -58: The Explosive Underground Boxing Ring
With that analysis, rescuing Lan Tingting seemed simple.
All they had to do was take the championship at the Underground Boxing Ring tonight, and the problem would be solved.
“Let’s go, find Yan Bin.” Xiang Yu called Shi Jian, and the two of them went downstairs.
They now knew about the Underground Boxing Ring, but they didn’t know where it was.
Upon arriving at Yan Bin’s villa, he wasn’t there, but his subordinate, knowing about Xiang Yu, just gave him the address, telling him to come tonight.
The three men found a relatively secluded tea house to sit down in.
“Xiang Yu, I still feel that fighting in those underground matches is inappropriate.
I’d heard about what goes on inside before, but I didn’t know Yan Bin was controlling it,” Shi Jian expressed his concern.
“Brother Yu, let me do it, I’m confident I can take the championship tonight,” Tie Zhuzi said.
“You think you can take the championship?
You think you can beat me?” Xiang Yu drank some tea, then went and lay down on a bed nearby.
The three men slept there until five in the afternoon, only getting up when Yan Bin called Xiang Yu.
“Xiang Yu, I heard you’ve been here already.
Why so eager to come meet your death?” Yan Bin said, laughing joyfully.
“Oh, Brother Wu.
I just woke up, thought it was some blind fool disturbing me.
Brother Wu, you should come watch me fight tonight, cheer me on,” Xiang Yu said leisurely.
“Hmph!
Kid, stop pretending.
Let me tell you, don’t think about running away.
I’ve already set people up at the bus stations and airports.
If you even think about running, just wait for death,” Yan Bin snapped and hung up the phone.
“It’s that bastard Yan Bin.” By this time, Shi Jian and Tie Zhuzi were already sitting by Xiang Yu and had heard everything clearly.
“Brother Wu sure thinks of everything.” Xiang Yu smiled, then put away his phone.
The three of them had dinner, and by then, it was eight at night.
They walked around for a while, and at ten, they finally arrived at the designated spot.
They entered a small house guarded by two fierce-looking men.
The men sized up Xiang Yu as he walked in.
After confirming his identity, they searched him thoroughly.
They had received orders from their superiors that Xiang Yu would come today, and they had seen his picture.
When the two men saw Xiang Yu, they both smiled as if saying, “So much fuss over such a man?”
Xiang Yu, standing at one meter eighty, didn’t look burly, but rather frail, the kind who wouldn’t last ten seconds in the ring.
But the person behind him, muscular and burly, looked like a master.
Without asking much, they let Xiang Yu and his companions in.
They walked down a corridor, took an elevator to the second underground level, and then passed through a corridor about ten meters long before hearing the deafening shouts inside.
The place was huge.
With a ten-meter walk, Xiang Yu felt the space above must be a parking lot.
The setup was just like a standard boxing ring, the only difference being that the ring was enclosed with a circle of iron cages.
The boxing match hadn’t actually started yet.
Inside the cage, three scantily clad women were dancing provocatively.
The crowd around was noisy, with some shouting for the women to strip, while others suggested that some men should go up and do a live show with them.
These people yelled uninhibitedly, as if venting all the stress of the day.
Xiang Yu and his companions found a corner to sit down, watching the frenzied crowd as if they had entered another world.
The women on stage contorted into various poses.
The crowd went wild, and even the women started screaming.
“Brother Yu, look there,” Shi Jian, who had sharp eyes, suddenly said.
He saw a small cage above the iron cage, containing a person in a red cheongsam with long hair, sitting there, seemingly lifeless.
Xiang Yu nodded.
He had recognized the person as Lan Tingting.
A surge of rage exploded in his heart.
He wanted to kill everyone present.
This was the angriest he had felt since coming here.
“Xiang Yu.” At that moment, Shi Jian suddenly felt very uneasy, patting Xiang Yu on the shoulder.
The people around them also looked at Xiang Yu, feeling suddenly chilled.
Xiang Yu took a deep breath and nodded.
Although it was only a moment, he knew he had lost his composure.
With a smile, he started eating peanuts.
“Shi Jian, look, the view over there is endless,” Xiang Yu suddenly pointed at the central ring.
Shi Jian let out a cry of ‘aah’, and his body reacted immediately.
Just then, a middle-aged woman noticed this, and with a smile, she approached to look at Shi Jian.
“Young man, first time here?
Let sister keep you company…”
Time just hit eleven o’clock.
The dancing girls walked off the stage bare-bottomed.
The host went up and announced the start of tonight’s wild night.
There were only eight matches tonight.
Among those who won these eight matches, the person who challenged the weekly champion successfully would not only receive a hefty cash prize but also a beautiful woman as a reward.
There were seven newcomers who signed up on the spot.
Audience members, if they felt they were stronger than the previous contestants, were fully able to step up, as long as they signed a waiver of life and death.
Of course, just fighting would earn them money.
Even winning just one match would yield a substantial reward, so, the atmosphere was incredibly charged.
“I trust everyone is already very familiar with our rules, but I still need to repeat them.
Our only rule is there are no rules.
You just need to knock your opponent down, continue as long as you like, up until your opponent dies…” the host recited professionally, “Now, please welcome the first person who’s signed the waiver of life and death to the stage.”
The area burst into chaos, with whistles and roars never ceasing.
The person who took the stage was a muscular giant, standing like a mountain at one meter ninety.
“Who will challenge him next?
Please, step up,” the host shouted.
The place suddenly quieted as everyone waited to see who would challenge this behemoth.
A minute later, a very skinny guy who had signed the waiver walked onto the stage, to a chorus of boos.
The physical disparity between the two was immense, clearly not even a match.
Next came the betting round.
At the front of each row, people were responsible for taking bets.
Unsurprisingly, ninety percent bet on the tall man to win.
Xiang Yu was somewhat surprised by how orderly the betting was.
It was certainly not chaotic, surely because Yan Bin had enforced strong measures previously.
“Let’s place a bet too, put all our money on the skinny guy.” Xiang Yu suddenly noticed Yan Bin, in a high observation room, smoking a cigar and standing there with a sinister smile.
“Hmph!
Yan Bin, your death is not far off…”
