When Li Chengzhi returned to the stage, he immediately received Liu Jingyao’s questioning gaze.

Seeing that Li Chengzhi couldn’t help but panic, he subconsciously glanced at the glass of red wine that had been drugged.

The sound insulation outside is very good. It’s impossible for Liu Jingyao to hear what I said to Deng Quan, right?

But seeing Liu Jingyao speak, she said angrily, “I thought you were running away, you bastard!”

Li Chengzhi was stunned and laughed dryly, “Run … where are you running?”

Liu Jingyao curled her lips in disgust and pointed at the arena where Li Chengzhi had gone out for a few minutes without even starting a fight, saying, “If you don’t promise, the two people below won’t be able to fight!”

Li Chengzhi was still puzzled, “Promise what?”

“Of course, if my bodyguard defeats your bodyguard, you will have to go down and spar with my bodyguard!” Liu Jingyao said angrily.

Li Chengzhi was stunned.

It turned out that when Li Chengzhi went out, Su Ye, who was on the arena, did not follow Huo Chenghong’s instructions. He wanted to fight immediately, but waved his hand to stop Huo Chenghong and asked Li Chengzhi to promise that if he won, Li Chengzhi would have to go up and compete with him.

As for Su Ye’s suggestion, it naturally caused a burst of dissatisfaction from the surrounding audience.

“Mr Huo! Stop wasting your time with this brat and directly kill him!”

“That’s right, it sounds like I can win!”

Huo Chenghong frowned and said, “So you think you can beat me?”

Su Ye shrugged and smiled. He slowly said, “This is what you promised earlier. If you don’t explain it to the audience now, then what will happen if you cheat?”

Huo Chenghong immediately raised his head and laughed, his laughter slowly filled with disdain.

However, when Li Chengzhi returned to the arena, he was urged to do so by Liu Jingyao. All he had to do was raise his voice and say, “Alright! If you win against Uncle Huo, I will go down and give you a gesture!”

As soon as these words were spoken, the audience in the boxing room was stunned.

After all, most of the people present knew exactly what kind of person Li Chengzhi was.

For a moment, he really couldn’t understand why it looked like Su Ye on stage only had the qualifications to challenge Li Chengzhi after defeating Huo Chenghong.

Could it be that Li Chengzhi had always been some hidden expert, and that he had always been deceived by his appearance as a playboy?

However, when everyone regained their senses, they felt that something was wrong.

In their eyes, Su Ye on the stage was not Huo Chenghong’s opponent at all. Then why would he challenge Li Chengzhi after winning against Huo Chenghong?

Seeing Li Chengzhi say this on the stage, Su Ye narrowed his eyes and nodded in satisfaction. You You said, “Alright, let’s do it now.”

However, it was Huo Chenghong’s turn to not be anxious anymore. He smiled disdainfully and said, “Young man, did you hear the rules of the competition clearly just now?”

Su Ye nodded and slowly said, “Sigh, it’s just a rule. Whoever gets beaten down first will lose.”

Huo Chenghong narrowed his eyes and smiled, “No, there are other ways to determine the outcome.”

Su Ye was stunned and asked, “Fall off the arena?”

Huo Chenghong You You said, “I killed you.”

Su Ye immediately narrowed his eyes and smiled helplessly, “Indeed, he didn’t say that he couldn’t take the life of his opponent. However, on the Ye Clan’s ship, your Li Clan dares to casually kill people?”

Huo Chenghong said in a loud voice, “Once you enter this arena, your life and death will depend on your fate. The Ye Clan will not say anything else!”

Huo Chenghong didn’t have any intention of concealing these words, but he made the spectators below the stage hear them clearly.

However, none of the people here felt any surprise or even said that they might kill someone if they heard this. They didn’t even have the slightest bit of fear in their hearts.

It was as if he had long since gotten used to the fact that one or two people would occasionally be beaten to death on this arena.

What Su Ye didn’t know was that the boxing room here was packed because of this.

Aren’t all of these people here claiming to be the elites of the upper class?

These so-called elites only valued benefits. From the current situation in District X, it could be seen that as long as these elites had money to earn, they did not care about law and morality.

When the contestants competed on stage, the spectators below the stage were not idle. They could not avoid the gambling games that usually appeared in the routine.

In the boxing room here, the gambling game would not only read who won and who lost, it would also bet on what the outcome would be for the losing side.

Whether to spit out a few mouthfuls of blood or break a few bones, the most obvious thing was that the person who could bet on losing would die on the spot.

If the bet was correct, the rewards would naturally be extremely generous.

When Huo Chenghong and Su Ye stepped onto the stage, many bold spectators bet that Su Ye would lose his life in the arena.

After all, in the eyes of these spectators, the outcome on the arena was already very obvious. If they wanted to bet on Huo Chenghong winning, there would be no profit at all.

However, if he could bet on Su Ye’s fate, then he would be able to earn a lot of money in a flash.

However, these spectators were worried that Huo Chenghong would not be too ruthless against a younger generation like Su Ye, so they were still speculating on how to place their bets in order to maximize their benefits.

However, hearing Huo Chenghong’s words, the audience below the stage began to shout loudly after placing their bets through specific tools.

Seeing Liu Jingyao’s appearance on the stage, she couldn’t help but frown. She faintly felt that she had come from somewhere, as if everyone was exerting their suppressed beast nature to their heart’s content. Her eyes were filled with anticipation of seeing blood and seeing life and death.

As for Li Chengzhi, who was still hitting her, he sneaked a glance at Liu Jingyao’s side face, and his apple couldn’t help but roll slightly.

There was an idiom called Dongshi Frowning. It said that an ugly woman liked to imitate Xi Shi’s frown and was made fun of by others. Therefore, it could be deduced that when this beauty frowned, she might even bring along a soul-stirring beauty.

At this moment, Liu Jingyao was like this, causing Li Chengzhi to be dumbfounded.

After Li Chengzhi secretly licked the corner of his mouth, he said, “Well, Miss Liu, it seems that the competition is about to begin. Let me propose a toast to you first. I hope that your bodyguard will be able to walk down the arena alive later.”

As he spoke, he raised his goblet and took a sip of the red wine.

If it was any other situation and Li Chengzhi provoked her, Liu Jingyao knew that in the case of a secure victory, she might really refute and say something like that. She picked up the wine glass and sipped it.

However, when Liu Jingyao saw the blood stains on the arena that had not been cleaned at all and looked at the scarlet red in the goblet, she felt nauseous and ignored Li Chengzhi.
