Night’s Nomenclature - Chapter 188: Broken Nuts
In the private room, Li Yinuo said, “The qualifying match is a fierce battle for every new boxer. Right now, not only the audience is watching, but also opponents Xiao Tu will have to face next. If he fought with all he has, then the opponents will be able to spot his weakness and make his coming fights more and more difficult.”
Inside the octagonal cage, Wang Fu became excited as the match continued. The audience was cheering for him, and his opponent was nothing more than a weak, cowardly boy.
Instantly, Wang Fu stopped his stormy attack and retreated, before dashing forward again.
He jumped up and stepped on the barbed wire fence of the octagonal cage, his figure was as light as a swallow.
Swallows usually don’t fly fast, but on rainy days, they will shuttle back and forth like bullets.
The next moment, Wang Fu’s right leg spun around and went straight to the face that Qing Chen was covering with his arms.
He wanted to use all his power to blow away Qing Chen’s last line of defense.
At this critical instant, Wang Fu suddenly felt that something was wrong. The moment he turned around, he saw the teenager’s eyes looking at him coldly from behind the arms.
There was no cowardliness or tiredness in those eyes.
The eyes didn’t even blink.
A dark night in Prison 18, Ye Wan once asked Qing Chen, “What do you think is the most important thing when fighting?”
Qing Chen thought for a while and replied, “Strength.”
“No,” Ye Wan shook his head.
Qing Chen made another guess, “Rhythm.”
“Not that either,” Ye Wan shook his head again.
“Then what is the most important?”
“It’s your eyes.”
When facing an attack, whether it was fists or weapons, one had to overcome all instincts.
Don’t blink; don’t look away.
Look at your opponent and look for his weakness.
At this moment, Qing Chen bent his knees and lowered his body. This whip from the leg passed right over his head, breezing through his hair.
The next second, just as Wang Fu’s figure passed over his head, Qing Chen suddenly threw out a quick punch, hitting Wang Fu between his legs.
Mom Ye said that this was the weakest spot for men, even if he only used one-tenth of his strength, he could still easily make the opponent lose all ability to fight.
“AHHH…”, Wang Fu lost his balance in the air and fell toward the other side of the octagonal cage.
His scream even covered up the cheers from the boxing ring.
The fighters have undergone rigorous training, so even if they were injured, they would not scream.
Unless they couldn’t help it.
This all happened so fast that most of the audience didn’t realize what happened.
Why did Wang Fu, who had an absolute advantage from the start, suddenly get his nuts crushed when using his famous technique “Return of the Swallow”.
The reversal was so sudden that many gamblers in the stands felt something was wrong, but when they wanted to buy back the tickets they had sold, they found that the middle-aged man who had just bought their tickets at a low price had already disappeared.
Those gamblers who lost the first round of betting on Qing Chen became furious. They cursed Wang Fu and threw the tickets in their hands into the field.
Li Yinuo in the private room breathed a sigh of relief, “Sure enough, as I expected. That bantamweight boxer can’t stand a chance against him.”
“Sister Yinuo is amazing,” Li Tongyun praised.
While Li Tongyun praised, she watched Qing Chen return to the locker room.
She clenched her small fists, reflecting on how powerful Qing Chen had gotten in such a short amount of time.
When they returned last time, Li Tongyun thought that she would encounter the elimination plan.
After all, she was still young and she didn’t plan very carefully when helping Jiang Xue.
If the household registration information from the Outer World was brought back to the Inner World, her previous act of helping Jiang Xue would be caught immediately.
The little girl was worried for several days, but she later found out that Qing Chen had already settled the matter.
For Li Tongyun, half of her sense of security in life came from her mother Jiang Xue, and the other half came from Qing Chen, so of course she hoped that Qing Chen could become as powerful as possible.
She and Jiang Xue had long regarded Qing Chen as family.
But Xiao Tongyun was still a little puzzled, why did Qing Chen appear here? This was different from the clues she found.
Qing Chen, who returned to the locker room, saw Li Shutong waiting inside with a big bag.
“Teacher, what is this…” Qing Chen asked curiously.
Li Shutong opened the bag with a mysterious smile, “This is my gift to you. As long as you can pass the customs tonight. All the money will be yours.”
Qing Chen was quite shocked, “Are these all betting that I can clear all the matches today?”
“Yes,” Li Shutong said, “I bought them at a 90% discount. Roughly, I spent about 100,000 yuan. Since they are all individual tickets, the face value of each was not very high.”
This meant that the value of the tickets here was at least a million.
“If I end up winning, how much can these tickets be exchanged for?” Qing Chen asked.
“The odds are different when they bought it, but I’m guessing that the average should be 10x,” Li Shutong said with a smile, “Your master is not short of money, so all the money you win this time will be your own Pocket money.”
Qing Chen took a deep breath and said, “Master, I understand, this is the opportunity you mentioned.”
…
…
In the private room, Li Yinuo looked at Xiao Tongyun and said, “Don’t you want to take a rest?”
“No, this is really exciting right now!” Xiao Tongyun blinked her big shiny eyes and looked at Qing Chen who had returned to the octagonal cage. She turned her head and asked Li Yinuo, “Sister Yinuo, what do you think he will do next?”
Li Yinuo rubbed her head with a smile, “I didn’t expect you to like boxing so much. Just like me, you’ll have great potential!”
I don’t like boxing at all… I just cared about my brother Qing Chen… Li Tongyun thought.
Li Yinuo then looked at Nan Gengchen next to her and said, “Babe, if you don’t like boxing, you can take a nap in the room, while I ask the staff to prepare some snacks for us.”
“Nah, I’m good, and I’m not sleepy right now either,” Nan Gengchen said. In his mind, he added, How would I be sleepy now? I can’t see how Qing Chen can beat all the other boxers to the ground.
Li Yinuo said happily, “I didn’t expect you to like boxing too, babe. Just now you were complaining, but look, you are also excited for more now.”
How could the muscular woman know that none of the two around her really cared about the boxing match? They were only watching because of Qing Chen…
Nan Gengchen asked, “Yinuo, what’s your prediction on this match?”
Li Yinuo thought for a while and said, “I’m thinking that he will continue to play safe, trying not to reveal weaknesses.”
The three of them looked into the octagonal cage together. It was a featherweight match.
The host stood outside the octagonal cage, bowed gracefully to the audience, and introduced enthusiastically, “Ladies and gentlemen, who could have thought that after twenty minutes of purely defending, boxer Xiao Tu is able to beat his opponent in just a single hit?”
“Let’s take a guess, how long will it take for him to end the match this time?”
However, the moment the referee exited the octagonal cage, Qing Chen suddenly dashed forward like a tiger. Before the featherweight boxing champion Wang Yanyu even had time to react, Qing Chen had already approached him and given him a hit on the balls.
“Ah! Damn it!”
The host’s voice was still echoing in the boxing ring, and the match was over…
The gamblers who bet Qing Chen would lose in the second round started throwing the tickets in their hands into the ring while cursing with anger.
The tickets made it seem like it was snowing in the ring.
In the private room, Li Yinuo hurriedly added, “But a steady style would also consume a lot of energy. He still got a tigerweight opponent later, and those are veterans who have retired from the army. That’s why I also thought that I might want to end the earlier matches as fast as possible!”
Xiao Tongyun and Nan Gengchen looked at her at the same time, both silent.
Li Yinuo was a bit embarrassed, she muttered in a low voice, “Is this kid on something? Why did he suddenly change his tactics?!”
However, her afterthought analysis was indeed what Qing Chen had in mind.
Qing Chen knew that the boxers he was going to face were very experienced.
So instead of wasting more energy, it made sense for him to win fast and reach the tigerweight class earlier.
At this time, Qing Chen turned his head to look at the referee, “There’s no need for a break, let the lightweight boxer come now.”
As he spoke, he reached out and pulled the zipper of his sportswear down.
Everyone in the audience watched silently as the teenager in the octagonal cage took off his jacket, revealing his muscular body, lean and fierce.
Those muscles seemed as solid as steel.
“Wow!” The audience in the boxing ring all exclaimed. Everyone thought that Qing Chen was just good-looking but quite fragile.
Now, after seeing how he easily defeated the featherweight boxing champion and his physique, they realized that he was just pretending to be weak before!
Qing Chen looked at the host, “Will that be okay?”
The host hurriedly glanced up at the stands, and the enchanting woman in the golden dress nodded slightly.
“Ladies and gentlemen, following the young boxer’s request, we have decided to speed up the pace of the qualifying matches, and now we invite the lightweight boxer Liu Rufeng to the ring. Everyone who bought tickets tonight is in for a real treat. We may witness the birth of a new boxing champion.”
As Liu Rufeng entered the arena, the host continued to shout excitedly, “Has anyone here watched how the boxing champion Afan climbed up just over the past year? Look at this young boxer we have tonight, does anyone feel a sense of deja vu…? That night, it was also so sudden…”
“Ah!! Fuck…!”
While the host was still speaking, the boxer’s scream came from behind.
He looked back and saw that the lightweight boxer Liu Rufeng was already clutching his crotch and was about to fall.
“Indeed so sudden…” The host commented.
Qing Chen looked at him and said, “Next.”
Hearing this, the host quickly said, “The match is at a crucial turning point, and now, the middleweight boxing champion Zhou Mo will… What? Zhou Mo returned his appearance fee and surrendered the match!?”
The host subconsciously repeated what he heard from the headset.
For a moment, the audience in the boxing club was also stunned. During a new boxer’s qualifying match, the middleweight boxing champion surrendered the match…
Zhou Mo… surrendered!
No one had ever ditched a match before even showing up.
Soon, everyone realized what was going on… Zhou Mo didn’t dare to fight!
There were nearly ten thousand spectators in the boxing ring. Everyone was silent at first and then erupted with chaos.
The noise seemed to be blowing the roof off.
Li Yinuo stood in the private room and watched silently. She was wondering if her seventh uncle and Uncle Chen Jiazhang had also experienced the same thing back then.
Knights.
The Knights seemed to be destined to become the protagonists in the world.
Under normal circumstances, it was rare to see new fighters coming to be qualified, with one appearing every few months.
The club contacted Zhou Mo and paid the appearance fee for him to come not too long ago.
As a result, Zhou Mo had just entered the arena and before he even got a chance to change, he saw Qing Chen easily knocking down the lightweight Liu Rufeng.
As an experienced boxer, he could see at a glance that this young man named Xiao Tu came to clear all matches.
The speed Xiao Tu demonstrated was at least of an E-level superhuman.
In the past, even if Zhou Mo knew that his opponent was much stronger than himself, as long as the boxing ring paid him enough, he wouldn’t mind getting beaten.
But this teenager’s choice of attack was simply too vicious.
He couldn’t afford taking a hit!
Beside the enchanting woman in the golden dress, someone asked in a low voice, “What should we do now?”
The woman looked at the teenager in the octagonal cage with great interest, “He’s so handsome, a real cash cow has finally come to our boxing ring!”
“Boss?” the subordinate asked with confusion.
“Arrange for tigerweight Huang Zixian to fight him,” the woman said with a smile, “Tonight is his path to fame. It must have a spectacular ending.”
The subordinate didn’t expect the answer and said, “Huang Zixian might be the next tigerweight champion and is currently at his peak. Boss, if you let them fight now, are you not afraid that something will happen to him?”
This was simple logic. Seeing that the teenager in the octagonal cage was about to gather a huge amount of popularity. The most rational choice for the club would be to select a weaker tigerweight boxer to fight so the teenager could pass all matches.
Then, the teenager would become a new star of the club.
If Huang Zixian was to fight the teenager, and the teenager lost, then it would be a big problem. Not many fans would like to follow the weak.
The woman smiled, “It’s only worthwhile if he can beat Huang Zixian. I need a real cash cow, not one filled with fluff.”
