Chapter 23 Martial Arts School
Chapter 23 Martial Arts School
Song Sheng receives a basic salary of one thousand yuan for each fight he wins in a top-level boxing ring.
In addition, the more wins a player accumulates in the boxing ring, the more likely they are to enjoy a proportional share of the profits from the entire Yihai Building.
Of the five fighters with the most wins so far, one of them was just killed by Song Sheng, and in Hansen's best area of unarmed combat, indirectly saving Queen Pei a sum of money.
Back to Box Number One
"Welcome back, Song." Mia turned around, her gaze falling on Song Sheng's blood-stained hand. "Should we have it bandaged?"
Song Sheng cracked his knuckles: "It's nothing serious, just rinse it with water, it's just a minor cut."
"Okay," Mia smiled gently, her bright blue eyes sparkling.
For the first time, she took the initiative to approach Song Sheng, politely hugging and congratulating him. Before parting, she whispered in his ear, "Song, your kung fu is amazing. How about I get a chance to see it for myself sometime?"
"..." Song Sheng's eyelids twitched upon hearing this. He looked at Mia, who had already turned around and sat back on the sofa, and really didn't understand what she meant by "gaining some knowledge".
If I remember correctly, Queen Pei introduced them before; both of her best friends are married women.
And I don't even have the surname Cao.
Song Sheng subconsciously looked at Queen Pei.
Queen Pei leaned against the corner of the wall, her dark eyes revealing little emotion: "After tonight, I will have someone send you the cash, including the half that was bet on you."
Song Sheng: "Then I'll have to trouble you, Sister Pei."
Queen Pei didn't say anything.
The private room quieted down, and after about two or three minutes of calm, the muscular white man suddenly walked towards Song Sheng.
Song Sheng turned his head in confusion.
The white-clad man extended his hand to him, his tone much more serious: "Song, I was arrogant before because of my prejudice against kung fu. I hope you don't mind."
That boxing match was amazing; it was the first time I'd ever witnessed the allure of kung fu.
If I have the chance in the future, I hope I can ask you for advice.
Song Sheng nodded simply: "No problem."
At this point, he seemed to suddenly remember something, rummaged in his pocket, and finally pulled out a hard business card: "This is my martial arts school. Come over and chat sometime."
"Hmm? You opened a martial arts school?" Queen Pei suddenly turned her head again when she heard this topic.
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"What's the name of your martial arts school?"
"National Martial Arts Hall".
"Traditional Chinese martial arts—you've got quite the nerve. So what are you going to teach?"
What should we teach?
I run a martial arts school, but I'm not the one teaching. I plan to hire some masters to take on students and do the work. Hong Kong Island lacks everything these days, except for martial arts instructors.
"..."
Queen Pei began to re-examine Song Sheng, and after a moment she spoke again: "There are rules for opening a martial arts school in Hong Kong. It's not something you can just do as you please."
"I've looked into it, and I plan to take some time to visit Master Hong before the official opening."
"Well, Master Hong is getting on in years. If you really want to pay him a visit, then do it properly and don't get into a fight with him easily. If you really can't reason with him, then just mention my name."
"Hmm? Sister Pei, you two know each other?"
"—He was my grandfather's apprentice."
"Your grandfather's?"
"Um?"
Queen Pei shot her a cold, piercing glare.
Song Sheng decisively stopped asking questions.
With Sister Pei's connection, things should be a bit easier for Hong Zhennan.
The next step was to find a way to recruit another group of boxing instructors.
There are actually quite a few good candidates on the boxing side; we'll see if we can poach a few.
These people are far superior to the martial arts masters around Hung Chun-nam.
……
In the second half, a boxing match involving a white man had already concluded.
When I came back, I had a few bruises on me, but the process of winning was still quite exciting.
The only pity is that although the following matches were also explosive enough, they did not have the same strong impact as Song Sheng's match.
This result was partly due to what was a classic underdog comeback.
On the other hand, Hansen, the monster in the boxing ring, was beaten to death in a way that was far too smooth.
This chain reaction created a huge sensation.
In fact, Song Sheng went up to the ring twice more afterward and won again.
However, this time he used some less sophisticated tactics, so the audience's reaction was noticeably less than the first time.
After his second appearance, Song Sheng was still in no hurry to leave.
Originally, they wanted to wait for Xie Chenyu's "Little Days" to sign up, but they waited until the last round that night. The other party still chickened out and didn't sign up, obviously intimidated by Song Sheng's first round.
So much so that when Xie Chenyu explicitly asked him to fight, Sasaki refused.
Although there is a large water pipe to support the event, it is an extremely important key point in the boxing ring.
But compared to that, life is more important.
Enraged, Xie Chenyu kicked him out of her roster on the spot and then brought the Muay Thai fighter, who had also won a match, to box number one to meet up with her best friends.
When Xie Chenyu saw Song Sheng again, she didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, she blatantly continued to poach him, which earned her a big eye roll from Mia, who surprisingly retorted.
The boxing match was coming to an end that night.
On the stage, the final, grand finale began.
This is a battle of weapons!
No wonder there were so many bettors in this match, and the atmosphere was completely different. It turns out the problem lay in the rules of the ring.
In the context of weapons combat, the contestants on stage are often either killed or seriously injured.
Both sides had taken their positions. One of them held a ring-pommel sword, with red silk wrapped around the ring of the hilt, which he gripped tightly in his left hand!
His opponent's weapon was rather unusual; it was a nine-section whip.
The nine-section whip consists of a handle, a whip head, and eight steel sections in the middle, with two or three copper rings connecting the steel sections.
There's an old saying: "Skillfully strike a meteor, smoothly strike a whip." The "smoothly strike whip" in this context refers to a type of whip like the nine-section whip.
The final weapon duel was so dangerous that it deserved cheers from the entire audience.
In the boxing ring, the nine-section whip's agility and ferocity were brought to their fullest potential by its owner.
Such as a white snake spitting its tongue, with red petals on its left and right sides—
The nine-section whip crackled and popped in mid-air!
The master swordsman, wielding a ring-pommel sword, had already averted danger several times on the field.
However, with just one careless move, he was immediately blinded by the sharp edge of the nine-section whip.
However, the ring-pommel sword maker was also a ruthless man.
Despite the excruciating pain, he pressed forward with a counter-attack, tearing his opponent's clothes to shreds on the spot. The sharp blade sliced through his chest, and even after narrowly dodging, he was still cut open, almost suffering a dramatic comeback.
In the end, the nine-section whip snatched away his weapon, and then struck him so hard that he vomited blood!
