Ten minutes before the start of the competition, the entire Tian Que was packed with an audience on both the first and second floors. The audience stand was a sea of red, with most of the audience holding up red-lit ‘Z’ signs, red rose lights, and heart-shaped red lights like fans supporting their idols.

The scale of the event was huge, with fanatics from all around the world specifically flying over from abroad to watch this competition. The most important thing was that the gender ratio of Z’s supporters was pretty much even at a glance.

Lu Jixing curled the corners of his lips and said with interest, “This is the first time I’ve ever seen so many girls in an underground casino.”

Lu Jilai nodded in agreement as he took a potato chip from Lu Guixin. “No wonder the manager of Tian Que said that Z is their pillar and moneymaker.”

Lu Guixin, who had long gotten tired of such gambling competition, found it boring and played a game with her uncles instead. She couldn’t even bother to look outside. She was nestled in the single sofa with her thin and well-proportioned legs dangling off the armrest. She gave off the aura of an arrogant hooligan.

Just then, they heard a loud roar from outside.

“Z! Z!” The supporters holding up ‘Z’ lit signs shouted, their cheers so loud that it could almost flip the roof and made people’s blood boil in excitement. Fiery red lights undulated crazily in the audience stand, and the entire Tian Que building seemed to be shaking.

Hearing that, Gu Si raised his eyebrows slightly in interest, lazily raised his head, and looked outside.

The private room on the third floor had a superb view of the entire boxing ring.

The two main leads of the day appeared on the boxing ring, and there was a huge size difference between the two people. One was two meters tall and a hundred kilograms in weight with a tall, dark, powerful, and muscular build, while the other was 187cm tall and around seventy-five kilograms in weight with a fair, lean, and defined body that didn’t seem to belong to a four-time boxing champion who had been fighting for years in underground casinos. They were so different that one could seemingly predict the result of today’s match.

Gu Si squinted his eyes as he looked at Z. The black mask, which had a red ‘Z’ sewn on the forehead area, was the latter’s trademark. He shifted his gaze to the screen in the room.

The camera was on Z. From his appearance alone, he looked ridiculously young, hostile, and arrogant. His black eyes were devoid of warmth and emotions, and the way he looked at people was as if he was looking at a pile of dead things.

When Z appeared on the big screen outside, another round of ear-splitting screams were heard. “Ahhhhh! Z!”

Even Lu Guixin, who had been hanging out in Ghost Street for years, had never seen such a scene in an underground casino. She furrowed her eyebrows slightly in annoyance as she glanced sideways and out of the window. Her gaze landed on the tall and thin figure in the boxing ring, and it got her narrowing her eyes the next second. That figure couldn’t be any more familiar to her, for she had seen hundreds of his photos.

The said person was Zhou Fu. He was Z, the boxing champion of Tian Que’s underground casino.

As Lu Guixin turned her face slightly, her soft black fringe slid across her brow bones, and a hint of a smile appeared on her face a few seconds later. He’s quite the chick magnet.

Lu Jixing stretched his arms out the back of the sofa as he looked out and laughed. “Ghost Street’s boxing champion is still suffering from the trauma Lu Guixin gave him. Say, how many of her punches do you think Z can take?”

Lu Jilai raised his eyebrows and glanced at his sister, who had a meaningful expression and a half-smirk on her face. She seemed to be staring at something as if her gaze had been locked on her target. Her gentle demeanor gradually faded and was completely replaced by the aggressiveness she usually kept hidden. He was surprised that she didn’t bother to hide it.

Lu Guixin ended the game, put down her legs, and rose to her feet. “Uncle Gu Si, just carrying on playing with Uncle Gu Hui. I’m stepping out for a moment.”

Even if she quit the game, Gu Si and Gu Hui were capable of carrying the others.

As there was food, drinks, and even a restroom in the private room, there was no reason for her to leave the room. Gu Si narrowed his eyes slightly when something occurred to him. “Are you going to challenge him?”

Lu Jilai raised his eyebrows as he looked at his brother and sister. “You guys have gotten so close with each other behind my back, huh? You’re going to challenge Z just because Lu Suibian wants to know how many of your punches he can take?”

Lu Guixin couldn’t bother to answer him as he stared at her with a complicated look that read, ‘Is my sister out of her mind?’

Lu Guixin smiled gently at him as if her display of aggression was just something they had imagined. “No. It’s just that it’s really lively outside, so I want to go out and watch the match.”

No matter how obedient Lu Guixin was in the eyes of outsiders, these people here knew very well that she hated crowded and noisy people.

Even though Gu Si found what she said strange, he didn’t ask any more questions. He merely looked up and said with a smirk, “What a coincidence. I share the same sentiments.”

His reply rendered Lu Guixin speechless.

…

The moment the group left the private room, the manager stationed outside hurriedly turned around and asked respectfully, “Do you need anything, Mr. Gu?”

Standing straight with his hands in his pockets, Lu Jixing said, “Find a place with a good view for us. We’ll watch the match outside.”

“Okay.” The manager bowed in response and immediately ordered someone to clear a stand from them.

Their stand was on the second floor. It was closest to the boxing ring and had the widest view in the casino.

Gu Si fiddled with a metallic lighter in his hand as he leaned idly against the dark railing and looked at the black circular boxing ring in the middle of the casino.

Gu Hui, on the other hand, was looking down and playing a game on his phone.

The air was filled with screams and shouts.

Lu Jixing, whose eardrums were ringing, dug his ears and then bumped Lu Guixin, who was leaning against the railing, with his elbow. “Why are you suddenly so interested in the match?”

Lu Guixin feigned innocence. “I placed fifty million as a bet! It’s only natural that I’d be concerned about the result.”

The other three people stared deeply at Lu Guixin. Fifty million is nothing to her.

Lu Jixing burst out laughing. “Don’t worry, I won’t tell other people that the unbeaten X has lost at Tian Que.”

There was a hint of a smile on Lu Guixin’s face. “Let’s make a bet. If I win, you have to do whatever I tell you to do.”

“Okay, but if you lose, you have to go to Shadow League for training. No more acting smart.”

The crowd reached a fever pitch with their enthusiastic screams.

The host excitedly shouted the opening speech as he welcomed everyone to the match and livened up the atmosphere. Heavy metal music boomed in everyone’s ears, and the crowd was frenzied.

Zhou Fu was currently looking down as he wrapped bandages around his hands. His actions were slow but filled with cold murderous air.

The referee went up and announced the rules of the match. “The death contracts have been signed. According to the rules here, both participants are responsible for their own deaths and injuries. The winner will receive prize money of ten million yuan, which will quadruple if the opponent dies.”

At that moment, the invisible scent of blood seemed to linger throughout the entire underground casino. With a shrill whistle, the deathmatch started.

Lu Guixin looked down at the black boxing ring with her head tilted.

As Zhou Fu didn’t have the habit of circling the ring, he stood on the spot and carelessly massaged his wrists.

When the black boxer noticed that his opponent wasn’t taking him seriously, his eyes burned with fury as he charged straight at Zhou Fu. He moved so fast that one could even feel the wind.

The crowd barely managed to see how Zhou Fu had reacted when they heard a loud thud against the floor the next second. The burly black boxing champion had collapsed to the ground and was lying on his side.

“What the f*ck?! That speed!” Lu Jixing straightened himself while his twin focused slightly more on the match.

While the audience didn’t manage to have a clear look at how Zhou Fu had struck, Lu Guixin and the others saw it clearly. Even Gu Si and Gu Hui were looking intently at the boxing ring. He almost sent his opponent flying off the ring with just one punch. That power…

It was quiet for around three seconds before loud cheers erupted among the audience.

“Z!” The sea of red seemed to be undulating excitedly.

The black boxer, who was lying sprawled on the ground, shook his head. Blood from the corners of his lips dripped onto the black boxing ring.

The referee stood next to him and started shouting, “Ten! Nine! Eight…”

At the count of five, the black boxer stood up and rushed toward Zhou Fu once more. Even though both of them were speedy players and the black boxer had the advantage in size, he was helpless when it came to Zhou Fu.

With startling speed and strength, Zhou Fu launched a counter-attack and struck at his opponent. Each of his punches, which contained tremendous power, landed accurately on the latter. The way he fought was fierce and ruthless.

This deathmatch wasn’t a fight between two opponents but a continuation of Zhou Fu’s absolute victory. His jab had landed hard on the black boxer’s chin, and it was so powerful that the latter collapsed to the ground and couldn’t stand up again.

The audience burst into cheers.

Z had, once again, dominated the boxing ring and became the boxing champion five times with a hundred percent winning rate.

Lu Guixin curled the corners of her lips as her gaze remained on the figure standing on the boxing ring. “You lost, Lu Jixing.”

Lu Jixing rolled his eyes as he swept his gaze over the frenzied crowd. “I’ve never seen any boxing champion with so many female fans.”

In a sweet voice, Lu Guixin comforted him, “Don’t be jealous, brother. You should have more confidence in yourself. Your name came from two hundred thousand netizens after all. Surely there were a few female netizens among them.”

Out of speechlessness, Lu Jixing’s eyes twitched as he eked out a smile. “Did the change of clothes lift a ban on you? Your good girl image has crumbled, huh? Jealous?! Why would I be jealous when I can mesmerize anyone on the street with my good looks?”

Lu Jilai, whose name also came from the netizens, felt insulted. “Can you please not get me involved in your argument?”

Lu Jixing turned to Lu Jilai. “Lu Suiyi, let’s abandon this sister of ours. Just because of her rumored boyfriend, she’s calling me ugly. Doesn’t that mean you’re ugly as well? She’s even defending a stranger. She’s no sister of ours.”

Gu Si laughed out loud and looked up with a smirk. “That guy has just helped her to win fifty million yuan. If you want to hear her praising you guys, you’ll have to pay her to do that.”

“That’s right!” Lu Guixin said in a cold and serious manner, her eyes bulging wide.

Lu Jixing was speechless.

Lu Jilai took a glance at the unconscious boxer who was being carried off the ring and then shifted his gaze to Zhou Fu, who was walking down. He stroked his chin thoughtfully. “What’s with Z? It didn’t look like he had unleashed his full power.”

Gu Si narrowed his eyes. “He didn’t.”

Lu Jixing grumbled, “Get Tian Que to add another match. Lu Guixin, you go up and help me recover the money I lost.”

The smile on Lu Guixin’s face turned into a smirk as she turned to face him. “You can’t even take a loss? Can you not embarrass me?”

Lu Jixing was rendered speechless.

“Guixin might not be a match for him.”

“That’s not my concern at the moment.” Lu Jilai looked at his sister and placed an arm on her shoulder as he crouched down, rested his other elbow on the railing, and propped his chin up. His eyes remained fixed on his sister as he said, “You’re behaving funny today. You know Z?”

“Take a guess,” said Lu Guixin with curved eyes.

Meanwhile, the most conspicuous stand on the second floor inadvertently came to Zhou Fu’s notice when he came down from the boxing ring. A girl was surrounded by four men, and one of whom even had his arm wrapped around her shoulders as he talked to her. The girl’s face was extraordinarily pretty and familiar. Lu Guixin? What is the campus belle doing in a place like this? Is she out of her mind?
