17: No way, this is word of mouth
He knew the purpose of Li Yi’s visit today, because the underground boxing match was right below the bar.
Thinking about it, it’s over!
If his opponent lost the match, he wouldn’t take his anger out on him, would he?
Should he just drive away?
Forget it, the other party probably wouldn’t be that petty.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he didn’t even dare to greet Li Yi, for fear that the other party would remember him. After all, he didn’t think Li Yi would win tonight’s match, and if he was remembered now, he might really be used as a punching bag later.
Thinking of this, he darted into the car and drove away.
Yu Weijie saw this and teased, “What was that? He scurried past like a big black rat.”
Li Yi heard this and gave him an annoyed look. “Alright, park the car. Let’s go in. That guy Chen Gongdan must have already arrived. If we’re a minute late, he’ll probably start his ritual again.”
A group of eleven people, led by the security captain, arrived at the underground boxing arena of the bar.
Their arrival naturally caused quite a stir, after all, they were one of the main characters of tonight.
Eleven people, four Super Bodyguards, plus Butler Wei, these were Wang Shaojun’s personal security.
The underground boxing arena was bustling with activity at this moment. Dozens of sofa seats were placed around, forming a circle, with a boxing ring in the center.
At this moment, the sofas were filled with young men and women, dressed in flashy clothes, clearly second-generation heirs from families with considerable assets.
“Young Master Li is here.”
Someone suddenly shouted, and immediately all eyes were drawn to him.
Li Yi ignored the gazes of the crowd and led Wang Shaojun and the others to their seats.
On their left, Chen Gongdan and his group had already been waiting for a long time.
“Oh, I thought you wouldn’t dare to come. Why don’t I see that pretty boy boxer you’re raising? Did you change people, or are you planning to let these Bodyguards fight? Hmm, looking at their physique, it’s not impossible.”
Seeing Li Yi and the others arrive, Chen Gongdan couldn’t help but tease.
“Less nonsense. What number is our match scheduled for? Also, sign this before the match.”
After Li Yi finished speaking, the person beside him handed over a document.
Chen Gongdan didn’t expect the other party to be so calm. He took the document and glanced at it; it was just a simple betting agreement.
He signed it without hesitation, then his gaze swept over the Bodyguards.
He had to admit, their aura was quite strong, but he didn’t know if they had the substance. However, he wasn’t worried at all, because he had absolute confidence in his own people.
With the main characters already present, there was no need to wait for the boxing match to begin. A man in a suit walked onto the ring with a microphone.
There was a large screen on each of the four sides of the ring, displaying the participants of tonight’s matches and the odds of the bets.
The odds for the first two matches were one to one, but the odds for Li Yi and Chen Gongdan’s match were slightly different.
The odds for Li Yi to win were actually 1.5, which was enough to show that no one thought Li Yi could win.
“Good evening, young masters and ladies, welcome to the Spades Underground Boxing Arena. Tonight is exceptionally lively, and I believe you all know why. Alright, without further ado, it’s the usual rule. Young Master Chen and Young Master Li’s match is the finale. Before that, let’s have two matches to liven up the atmosphere.
Again, before we start, you all have five minutes to place your bets. Those who wish to bet can find the on-site staff, who will provide you with a certificate. Alright, five minutes, time starts now.”
As soon as the man finished speaking, everyone began to call out to the staff walking around.
Wang Shaojun, seeing this, wasn’t too interested. With a guaranteed win, why bother betting on a match with only a fifty percent chance of winning?
Li Yi and the others naturally had no interest either. Their money, of course, had to be saved for the end.
Five minutes passed in a flash.
Wang Shaojun saw the odds displayed on the screen for Li Yi, couldn’t help but turn to him and laugh, “You’re quite valuable, 1.5 times. I wonder how many people will bet on you.”
Li Yi heard this and smiled awkwardly, “No choice, this is reputation.”
Hearing this, Wang Shaojun’s face showed some surprise. What a reputation.
Yu Weijie couldn’t help but interject, “Don’t worry, Brother Yi, with Brother Jun here this time, we’ll definitely win.”
“Yes, Brother Yi, we all support you. I still have three million yuan, and I’ll bet it all on you winning.”
“That’s right, that guy Chen Gongdan is too arrogant. Speaking of which, Brother Yi, where’s the boxer you found this time? Why didn’t you bring him?”
Hearing Yu Weijie’s words, the other three echoed him one after another.
At the same time, they were very curious about the identity of Brother Jun, whom Li Yi called “Brother.” They were very familiar with Jiangcheng, and while there were people richer than the Li family, they clearly weren’t surnamed Wang.
Could it be that the other party was a top-tier second-generation heir from another place?
Although they were very confused, they didn’t dare to ask too many questions.
The two matches were unremarkable, but the feeling of fist meeting flesh completely ignited the atmosphere of the scene.
There was still a lot of blood on the ring. There were no rules in the boxing matches here, as long as no one died.
Of course, even if someone was accidentally killed, it didn’t matter, as a life-and-death agreement was signed before the match began.
It was just that lethal blows were rarely dealt, after all, both boxers had bosses behind them.
On the ring, as a punch landed, a muscular boxer lay unconscious on the ground.
“Damn it! Dolong is such a waste, he grew so big for nothing, completely useless.”
“That’s right, I even suspect he grew his muscles from steroids. Damn it, I bought him because he was so big, who knew he would be so useless, making me lose two hundred thousand for nothing. That’s my monthly allowance.”
“You’re lucky, I lost five times that, a million yuan. I should have saved it to bet on Young Master Chen’s match.”
“Heh heh, you must be new. Young Master Chen’s match is a sure win. I always bet on Young Master Chen winning, and I’ve won almost ten million in total. This time, I’m going all in and betting on Young Master Chen to win.”
“Ah, I’m new, can you tell me what’s the trick? How are you so sure that Young Master Chen will win?”
“Hehe, you don’t understand, do you? You’ll understand when you see Young Master Chen’s boxer, Iron Tower.”
The first two matches gradually ended, and the atmosphere on site clearly became more enthusiastic.
As the main event approached, the host once again walked onto the bloody ring and said excitedly, “Ladies and gentlemen, I’m sure the two matches just now have ignited your passion. So, without further ado, next is tonight’s main event.
I won’t introduce the participants of the match too much. The betting time for this match will be fifteen minutes. After fifteen minutes, tonight’s main event will officially begin.”
