Bison smiled ferociously at Shan Ming and approached him slowly.
Shan Ming looked at him coldly, seeing his flawless posture and the contempt in his eyes. Shan Ming thought that if this person didn’t take any drug, he wouldn’t be his opponent at all. But after fourteen years of development and progress, how powerful would those drugs be by now? It made him feel uncertain whether he could beat this man.
When Bison was only a dozen centimetres away from him, he suddenly raised his fist and threw a punch at him at high speed!
Shan Ming dodged the punch with his short body. He kicked with a strong force and rushed under Bison’s arms. With his strong elbow, he aimed for Bison’s diaphragm and slammed into it fiercely.
Bison reacted quickly and immediately retracted the fist that was swung in the air. He smashed it on Shan Ming’s back. Shan Ming knew that he couldn’t dodge, so he could only relax his body as much as possible to receive the punch. He was slammed hard on his spine. The dull pain made his body tremble and his body almost went numb immediately.
Shan Ming half-kneeled on the ground. His eyes were dizzy while his hands and feet were shaking. The paralysis hadn’t passed yet so he couldn’t even stand up. This motherfucker is really strong.
Fortunately, Bison didn’t feel well at that moment. The heavy blow on the diaphragm made him vomit out on the spot. His eyes were immediately bloodshot because he couldn’t breathe smoothly.
Shan Ming regained his physical strength first. And then, with one hand and one foot on the ground as support, he flew up and kicked Bison with a strong force. The guy weighing nearly two hundred catties flew into the air!
In the auditorium, the people who bet on Shan Ming burst into loud cheers. They were expecting to see the ‘Beauty’ being tortured by ‘Bison’ but they didn’t expect this ‘Beauty’ to be so powerful, with incredible flexibility. The degree of distortion of many limbs in the game is difficult for people to achieve. But this oriental man did it. He beat Bison to his knees with only one blow.
And most of those who bet on Bison began to curse frantically, urging Bison to stand up quickly.
How could Shan Ming allow him to stand up?
He flicked his hands and feet, confirming that the pain and numbness would not affect his movements. So, he rushed forward and kicked Bison’s throat before he could get up.
Compared with the fierce reaction of the audience, Rody was absolutely frightened by Shan Ming’s viciousness.
These few moves of Shan Ming are aimed at killing people. It was as if he was not here to fight at all. He was here to kill!
Although at ‘Genting’, the probability of the opponent’s final death is extremely high, in order to cater to the tastes of these perverted audiences, some people will deliberately prolong the time of torturing the opponent. Very few people come up with the purpose of killing the opponent like Shan Ming whose moves are all killer moves.
Bison’s eyeballs almost popped out of the sockets. He grabbed his throat, desperately trying to breathe, but the amount of air that he could suck into his chest was so scarce. He could no longer stand up and continue to fight. As long as Shan Ming kicked him again, he would be finished.
Shan Ming’s cold eyes swept over Bison, and then the audience in the arena, and finally, they landed on Nesis.
Nesis was also stunned. Until Shan Ming’s murderous eyes fixed on him, he swallowed nervously. He looked at the bodyguard beside him holding a machine gun and regained some sense of security.
He pointed to Bison on the stage and then made a movement of wiping his neck towards Shan Ming.
Shan Ming originally didn’t mind killing this person. After being injected by drugs, he was so weak that it was of no value for him to kill. However, since Nesis ordered him to kill him, why should he listen to Nesis?
Shan Ming snorted coldly. He walked over and kicked Bison off the ring to the feet of his ‘owner’. He then jumped off the ring himself and sat on the chair prepared for him.
The entire fight was over in less than five minutes and most of them were still in shock and did not react. Then the audience who bet on Shan Ming burst into wild cheers and the atmosphere in the fighting arena was fired to the highest point.
Many people who come to place bets are looking for the excitement of being upset. Betting on someone who is not favoured can win dozens or even hundreds of times the amount of the bet. They could make a lot of money all at once. What is more wonderful than this? It was exciting. It was even more exciting!
The audience started yelling ‘Beauty! Beauty!’
Shan Ming hated this nickname deeply. Unfortunately, he couldn’t stop so many people from using this nickname on him.
The two huge LED screens hanging on the ceiling of the fighting arena began to replay Shan Ming’s clean killing move just now. The commentator used extremely provocative language to render Shan Ming and the huge profits brought about by this upset.
Nesis smiled triumphantly. He raised his glass gracefully to the opponent’s ‘owner’. Shan Ming won the round for him and saved his reputation.
The doctor was examining and treating Shan Ming’s injuries while the masseur was relaxing the muscles of Shan Ming’s body. Shan Ming felt quite comfortable so he simply closed his eyes and enjoyed it for a while.
“Mr. Shan.”
Shan Ming opened one of his eyes. Nesis’ big face with a hypocritical smile appeared in front of him.
“You are amazing. You are even better than I imagined. It’s amazing.” Nesis said excitedly.
Shan Ming said coldly: “If you have anything to say, say it quickly.”
“Do you know how much I earned from this game alone?” Nesis smiled mysteriously, “8.6 million dollars.”
Shan Ming thought to himself; How the hell is this making so much money? He fought one round and it could already catch up with half the price of one ‘Peregrine Falcon’ mission.
Nesis explained: “In fact, not every game makes money like this. The key is that 92% of the people bet their money on Bison this time. If you think about it, how much money can I make from you with the remaining 8%. It’s your bonus this time. 8.6 million. It’s all yours.”
Shan Ming sarcastically said: “This business is really profitable.”
Nesis said: “Of course it is. I didn’t lie to you. It’s much more cost-effective than all your missions and you will even have loyal supporters. In the future, if you win a game, we will split all the money in half. Even if you lose, I won’t let you compensate me for my loss. That is as long as you keep cooperating with me.”
Shan Ming sneered, “Because if I lose, I will die. Are you looking for compensation from the dead?”
The smile on Nesis’s face remained unchanged, “If I think you are worth living, I will allow you to live. Let me see your infinite potential, my ‘Beauty’.”
There was a chill displayed in Shan Ming’s eyes. He clenched his fists tightly thinking that ensuring the death of Nesis by his own hands is his greatest motivation to live now.
He didn’t get too much rest time. Nesis saw that his injury was not serious so he arranged a second game for him at midnight the same day.
His afternoon game was well publicised and the audience for the second game was obviously much larger than the previous one.
When the betting was over, Nesis told him that the total amount of bets in this game was nearly 100 million.
Shan Ming felt the blood in his body gradually boiling up.
Although it was not his original intention to stand on the arena of ‘Genting’, the aggressive factor in his body was mobilised by this cruel dark fighting. No matter which battlefield he was on, his desire to win and conquer the opponent’s wildness would never change. Shan Ming said to Nesis, “Where’s my money?”
Nesis was stunned for a moment, “What?”
“The eight million. Give it all to me.”
Nesis was taken aback for a moment. He then laughed loudly and said, “You are a true fighter and a bold gambler.”
Shan Ming looked at the opponent on the other side of the ring. He was nearly two metres tall, with a square head, big ears, and tangled muscles. He slowly clenched his fists and his joints creaked.
He is indeed a bold gambler. And he gambled with his life.
