Chapter 178

Headwind situation!?

The boxers participating in tonight's "Points Gambling Battle" come from all over Asia.

Is their strength very strong?

During this period, Chen Jie has already integrated the Twelve Roads Tan Leg, Xingyi Quan, and Qi Family Saber Technique.

All three major martial arts have already broken through to the Third Realm — the realm of Momentum!

He really couldn't figure out who in the Asian martial arts world could still block him.

Chen Jie's face was calm, his gaze composed as he looked at the arrogant "Thunder Fire" Mantres on the boxing ring.

Seeing Chen Jie's demeanor, Wang Yu immediately shook his head and explained:

"Brother, fighting underground boxing in Southeast Asia, luck is very important."

"Especially for tonight's 'Points Gambling Battle' like this, it uses a temporary drawing lots format."

"If you draw a top expert right at the start, you can only helplessly give up, not earning a single cent."

"Listen to a word of advice from Brother, if your luck is bad and you draw those famous experts, just give up directly!"

"This is Southeast Asian underground boxing, not those professional boxing matches on the mainland; once you step on the ring, if the strength gap is too large, it's really very easy to be beaten to death."

Points Gambling Battle!

To adjust the atmosphere, and also to stimulate the boxing fans' enthusiasm for betting.

"The drawing lots for the first match of tonight's 'Points Gambling Battle' is about to begin...!"

"The next boxer to draw lots is the 'Azure Dragon' from China!"

Finished speaking,

To put it simply,

This is a screening process.

Next is the second drawing lots, screening continues...

"On behalf of the entire Chiang Mai 'Shuanglong Temple' Boxing Arena, I welcome everyone's arrival."

Others who want to gain points need to start challenging from "Thunder Fire" Mantres.

"Forget it, not saying these things, I give up!"

Inside the rest room, Wang Yu heard the sound from the live broadcast, completely dumbfounded.

From the broadcast in the boxing hall came the voice of the live host.

"What's wrong?"

"Damn it... bad luck! I knew this period was very unlucky."

"This is a boxer from 'Bay Island', nickname 'Saber Guest'!"

Have to say,

Chen Jie raised his head to look at Wang Yu, asking in surprise.

Finished speaking,

"Good! The drawing lots results are out, let's see, for tonight's first match, who will challenge the 'Thunder Fire' Mantres from the Middle East Israel?"

Very obvious,

Tonight "Thunder Fire" Mantres being the first to step onto the Octagon Cage boxing ring is a deliberately selected figure to lead the points ranking in the first battle.

His face turned deathly pale.

A moment later, the news of Wang Yu giving up the first challenge and exiting the "Points Gambling Battle" spread throughout the entire boxing hall.

He beckoned to a staff member not far away.

Due to tonight being the "Points Gambling Battle", many boxing fans came to the scene.

Using "Thunder Fire" Mantres as the baseline, start screening.

Just as Wang Yu was still explaining non-stop, trying to disperse his own nervous emotions.

If the drawn boxer dares not step on the ring, they will lose the "Points Gambling Battle" qualification.

Give up again...!

Five consecutive drawings, five boxers gave up tonight's "Points Gambling Battle".

Wang Yu helplessly smiled bitterly: "I am the 'Saber Guest', no choice, can only give up, I simply cannot beat 'Thunder Fire' Mantres."

"Gentlemen, ladies, tonight is a sleepless night full of anticipation!"

The organizer letting "Thunder Fire" Mantres take the lead indeed can screen out those boxers wanting to fish in troubled waters.

Give up...

Every match's opponents are randomly drawn by lots.

"Didn't expect there's another 'Chinese boxer', but also unlucky enough, similarly drawn to fight the first match."

"Within two minutes, please 'Saber Guest' step on the ring, otherwise it counts as giving up...!"

"I want to step on the boxing ring, block his attacks for one minute!"

The live host paused, starting to check the first match's drawing lots results.

"This bastard attacks with a cruel heart and spicy hands, I personally saw him beat someone to death in the Middle East, fierce to a mess."

Wang Yu heard the sound from the broadcast, smiling helplessly:

"The first match having 'Thunder Fire' Mantres fight the first battle is obviously to screen out half the people."

The 'Shuanglong Temple' Boxing Arena specially arranged Southeast Asia's most famous boxing match host, responsible for driving the live atmosphere.

"Let's have the staff confirm, see if he gives up...?"

"Can only give up, 'Thunder Fire' Mantres is Israeli on the surface, but he's of European bloodline, strength fierce, no way to fight."

Just at this time,

A staff member held a tablet computer, confirmed something, and came before Chen Jie.

"Hello! Mr. Canglong, do you want to give up as well?"

Chen Jie made no sound, but merely smiled faintly.

Next, he twisted his neck, turned, and walked toward the passage to the boxing ring.

At this moment,

An extremely overbearing fighting intent radiated from his body, sharp-edged and fully revealed.

"Holy shit... brother, what are you going to do?" Wang Yu shouted in surprise.

Chen Jie stopped his steps, turned his head to look at Wang Yu, and said faintly:

"In the Southeast Asian Martial Arts World, I am called 'Canglong'! My dictionary has never had the two words 'give up'."

Finished speaking,

Chen Jie walked toward the Octagonal Cage Boxing Ring unhurriedly.

"How are you so 'reckless'? Sigh... young people, haven't suffered losses!"

Seeing Chen Jie walk toward the boxing ring, Wang Yu was instantly speechless.

"Hope after tonight this once, you can survive, and afterward can accept the lesson."

"Fighting underground boxing, doesn't rely on bravery, but relies on the brain, must know how to assess the situation, must fight 'Tailwind Situations'! Only then can you earn money."

"Fight 'Headwind Situations', sooner or later you will crash!"

"This place, once you crash, it's disabled or dead!"

"Don't listen to old people's words, suffer loss right before your eyes!"

Wang Yu sighed, and didn't say anything more.

At this time,

The on-site host's impassioned voice came from the live broadcast.

"Gentlemen, ladies, the first boxing match is about to begin."

"Canglong VS Leihuo! Let us give the most enthusiastic applause to 'Canglong', hoping he can bring us a surprise in the first boxing match."

"The odds given for this boxing match are one to four point eight! 'Canglong's' win rate is very low, the five-minute betting countdown begins."

"..."

Clatter...!

With the boxing match's confirmation, the entire boxing hall's atmosphere became very lively.

Perhaps because 'Leihuo' Mantres's fame is very great.

Therefore,

Whether it's the outer banker or the boxing hall's betting background, betting is extremely hot.

However, from the betting background data, one can very clearly see.

The vast majority of betting funds all lean toward 'Leihuo' Mantres.

Although betting on 'Leihuo' Mantres has very low odds, ten thousand Mei Yuan bet, after 'Leihuo' Mantres wins, deducting principal only yields around two thousand Mei Yuan of prize profit.

But,

The greater the odds gap, the greater the strength evaluation gap between both sides.

In this situation, the probability of wanting an upset is very low.

This is also the important reason why many rich gambling fans bet on 'Leihuo' Mantres without hesitation.

After Chen Jie entered the boxing ring passage.

Hah—!

He took a deep breath, letting himself quickly enter combat state.

A moment later, he entered inside the Octagonal Cage Boxing Ring.

Clatter...!

At this moment,

Inside the entire boxing match hall, applause thundered, atmosphere thoroughly ignited.

All on-site boxing fans let out desperate cheers, roars, becoming very crazy.

Entered into the Octagonal Cage Boxing Ring.

The five-minute betting countdown formally opened.

This is the Southeast Asian underground boxing rule, after each boxing match is confirmed.

Both boxers appear on the boxing ring, letting the audience judge both sides' strength, only then will betting proceed.

When all is said and done,

Since it is underground boxing, naturally everything's core is one word — gamble!

Tonight is 'Points Gambling Battle', each boxing match's betting funds are not low.

The benefits in the middle are very large.

In the middle of the Octagonal Cage Boxing Ring is a partition net, separating both boxers.

Chen Jie raised his head and took one glance at 'Leihuo' Mantres standing opposite.

Have to say,

'Leihuo' Mantres's body type is tall, mighty, muscles containing terrifying explosive power.

He is of European bloodline, only holds Israeli nationality.

Very strong!

From a strength standpoint, this 'Leihuo' Mantres's strength is very strong, even not weaker than those ordinary 'Muay Thai Kings'.

He radiated a terrifying killing intent, exuding an extremely powerful sense of oppression.

The first arena controller carefully selected by the Shuanglongsi Zhanchang was indeed formidable in strength.

In terms of aura, "Lightning Fire" Mantres was considerably stronger than the Indonesian boxer "Xi Niu" Su Xida that Chen Jie had encountered in the previous boxing match.

Next,

Chen Jie turned his gaze toward the fat man below the boxing ring.

He saw the fat man Wang Hou make a hand gesture toward Chen Jie.

"Underground bookmaker win-loss counter-bet: Five million USD!"

He hadn't expected this counter-bet with the underground bookmaker to actually reach as high as five million USD!

Quick battle, quick decision!

The fat man gave a clear signal.

Judging from the on-site betting situation, almost no one was optimistic that Chen Jie could win this boxing match.

A rookie newcomer to the Southeast Asian martial arts world, how could he possibly be a match for "Lightning Fire" Mantres?

You have to understand,

"Lightning Fire" Mantres's fame in the Middle East underground boxing world was too great.

"Kid, you're the first person to step on stage; I'll give you a chance to admit defeat!"

"Kneel and kowtow to me, and I'll let you off today! Otherwise... haha...!"

Mantres raised his head to look at Chen Jie and laughed wildly.

Chen Jie acted as if he hadn't heard the other party's voice, beginning to warm up on the boxing ring on his own.

He was very serious, without any intention of underestimating his opponent.

Seeing Chen Jie ignore him, "Lightning Fire" Mantres's eyes instantly emitted a fierce killing intent.

The five-minute betting countdown soon ended.

Ding!

The bell rang.

The partition net in the middle of the octagonal cage boxing ring pulled open.

The first match of the "Points Gambling Battle" formally raised its curtain.

"Hmph! Giving you a chance to survive, you don't cherish it! Kid... you can die now!"

Mantres let out a cold snort at Chen Jie.

Bang...!

He stomped his foot back violently, then launched a rush step stomp kick aimed at Chen Jie's chest and abdomen vital points.

Ferocious, lightning-fast, explosive power that shocked!

His opening move was a killing move!

This rush step stomp kick carried heavy momentum and force, instantly sealing off all of Chen Jie's retreat routes.

This is the most classic "strong offense style" play in the Middle East underground boxing world.

Using leg technique to erupt powerful suppression, the offensive came like a tide.

This rush step stomp kick was extremely ferocious, with tremendous killing power, striking straight at vital points.

Chen Jie's face showed no expression.

After stepping on stage, he had entered combat state, his mind empty and clear.

Swish...!

Chen Jie's feet shifted horizontally half a step, then a heavy fist drove upward, smashing toward "Lightning Fire" Mantres's throat!

One fist seals the throat!

Tyrannical, ferocious, cold and ruthless!

Xingyi Secret Transmission — Drilling Cannon Combined Strike!

Crack!

This "Drilling Cannon Combined Strike" killing move grasped the timing of the punch with incomparable precision.

Sudden movement, instant eruption!

The counterattack angle of the heavy fist was breathtaking.

"Lightning Fire" Mantres's rush step stomp kick had just exhausted its technique, fundamentally unable to stop in time.

Power confrontation!

The key is,

The Drilling Cannon Combined Strike that Chen Jie erupted in an instant was too fast.

All of "Lightning Fire" Mantres's retreat routes were sealed off by this one punch.

A piercing sound spread through the surroundings.

"Lightning Fire" Mantres's rush step stomp kick grazed past Chen Jie's body, fundamentally unable to retract his leg in time.

At this moment,

He could only watch helplessly as Chen Jie's heavy fist smashed ferociously into his own throat area.

He wanted to block and dissipate the force, wanted to retreat and dodge, wanted to...

But there was no time to think!

He fundamentally couldn't accomplish any of it.

Against such speed, there was fundamentally no time to react.

Next,

The scene on the boxing ring left every spectator present staring in shock.

Thud—!

The body of "Thunderfire" Mantres fell to the ground, clutching his throat.

Pfft—!

Immediately, blood gushed out, dyeing the boxing ring red in an instant.

One Hit Kill!

At this time,

The entire Shuanglong Temple Boxing Arena was silent, so quiet a needle drop could be heard.

Drilling Fist Combined Strike, like a drill impacting, unstoppable.

"Thunderfire" Mantres!

This Top Expert from Israel in the Middle East was a strongman who achieved excellent results in the Middle East Underground Boxing World.

He lay on the boxing ring, trembling all over, convulsing, clutching his throat.

He wanted to get up and fight, extremely unwilling in his heart.

Contempt for Enemy!?

No!

He absolutely did not have Contempt for Enemy!

As a Top Expert in the Middle East Underground Boxing World, having fought countless battles, he possessed rich combat experience.

How could he have Contempt for Enemy?

In the instant he erupted with Rush Step Stomp Kick, his arms protected both sides of his chin for Defense.

However,

He never expected that this "Canglong"'s Counterattack speed was so fast.

In a flash...

"Thunderfire" Mantres only felt Breathing Difficulty.

The surrounding lights disappeared, and he heard no sound.

His Whole Person was like falling into an Ice Factory, bone-chillingly cold!

His throat was shattered instantly by Chen Jie's one "Combined Strike".

This Straight Punch, like a dragonfly touching water, had a speed that could be called explosive.

The punch was Wu Ying, simple, crude, direct!

"Thunderfire" Mantres's cervical vertebrae suffered a violent impact and were shattered instantly.

Swish—!

Chen Jie retreated several steps, his gaze very Calm.

"Is this an Expert from the Middle East Underground Boxing World?"

"Hmph! Such Ware, who gave you the Courage to act arrogantly in front of me?"

Chen Jie Cold Snorted in his heart.

Truthfully, "Thunderfire" Mantres's Shen Yi Su Du, not to mention comparing with Rijima Top Fighting King Miyamoto Musashi.

Even comparing with Rijima Funakoshi Masao, there was a certain gap.

With Chen Jie's combat consciousness and speed, the other side rashly launching a strong attack was simply seeking death.

One Hit Kill!

Two seconds!

"Hmph! Overestimating oneself!"

Chen Jie raised his head expressionlessly to look around the boxing ring, his whole body emitting a shocking Dominating Aura.

Exactly,

The Aura on him was very fierce and overbearing.

Just like a real Tiger, standing on the Octagonal Cage Boxing Ring, giving people an Invincible Momentum.

Fierce, Brave, Overbearing, Ruthless!

The name Canglong!

At this moment in Chiang Mai Shuanglong Temple Boxing Hall in Thailand South, spread throughout Southeast Asia.

Clatter...

For a moment,

The on-site Audience reacted, suddenly widening their eyes, staring with shocked expressions at the unbelievable scene on the boxing ring.

It's over!?

No way? The Bangzhan ended just like that?

How Come?

Two seconds!

From the Match Bell ringing to the end, only two seconds were used.

"Thunderfire" Mantres died!

Killed in one move on the boxing ring.

How could this be possible?

Wasn't "Thunderfire" Mantres a Top Expert from the Middle East Underground Boxing World?

Wasn't he a European with Israeli nationality?

Wasn't he once a semifinalist in the West Asia Martial Arts Championship?

How was he instant-killed in one move?

Impossible!

Absolutely impossible! Must be dazzled!

Many had just finished betting, staring at their betting slips, the whole person stunned.

They hadn't even shifted their attention to the boxing match.

When they finished betting and turned their gaze to the boxing ring,

the boxing match had actually ended!

'Thunderfire' Mantres lay on the boxing ring, motionless.

Fresh blood dyed the ground of the boxing ring red!

The boxing match ended too fast.

Two seconds!

Such a result overturned everyone's understanding.

Truthfully,

if not for 'Thunderfire' Mantres lying motionless on the boxing ring, no one would dare believe any of this.

Clatter—!

When all live fans in the hall reacted, the atmosphere inside the entire Boxing Hall went completely crazy.
