Chapter 191 The Hippo Plan - Part 2

"Gentlemen, are you ready?" Shi Zuo was standing at the centre of the brightly lit boxing ring but Ji Ao sniggered and proposed something to Xiong Da.

"Hey, Xiong Da. How about we fight like boxers? No weapons. Just you and me with our fists?" Ji Ao took out his shirt and revealed a series of large crocodile scales tattooed on his back. He had gotten it to show his ferocity. Ji Ao wanted to do this in case Xiong Da had some high grade weapon that he might have acquired since he was now seen as a rich fat guy. Without weapons, Ji Ao thought that it would increase his chance to win even further.

Damn, if Ji Ao knew Xiong Da was rich, he would have plummeted him into pieces the first time round and extorted money from him. Ahh but this would be equally a good chance too.

"Sure," Xiong Da took out his shirt to reveal his enormously big belly, so white and tender fresh. Ji Ao could not help but chuckle as he flexed his abdominal muscles to reveal his six packs. "Just warming up." Ji Ao smiled deviously at Xiong Da but he did not care.

"Since I am the witness, can I propose the rules of engagement?" Shi Zuo said and Ji Ao readily agreed. "One round, unlimited time. No physical weapons, fight till death since this is an instance. Simple enough? Can I have your storage rings and shirts for safe keeping?" Both agreed and they gave their shirts and storage rings to him.

What Xiong Da did not know was that Ji Ao had already told Shi Zuo what to do and the rules of engagement which Shi Zuo readily agreed.

"Ooo, that sneaky guy is definitely going to use magical scrolls or temporary inscriptions." Luo Bo tried to figure what Shi Zuo was saying as she watched the telecast from the Stations.

"Does not matter," Jin commented that knowing how strong Xiong Da was even at just Grade 3. He would not be surprised if Xiong Da could overpower his opponent with raw physical strength. If the fishing service instance was working for Xiong Da as intended, Jin would not be surprised if he was at Grade 4 right now.

Xiong Da started to do some simple footwork and jumped on the spot. Ji Ao laughed at the ridiculous hippo trying to imitate a proper boxer. Ji Ao betted that Xiong Da did not know that he was once a professional boxer and even had made a small name for himself.

"Ready? Fight!" Shi Zuo shouted as he quickly stepped back and out of the way of the two's fighting. Xiong Da went in hoping to strike Ji Ao with a punch but the Croc dodged just in time.

"So slow!" Ji Ao shouted as he delivered a counterpunch straight into the fatty's belly. Xiong Da immediately fell to the ground from the counterpunch and saw four crocodile silhouettes laughing at the hippo that was on the floor.

Ji Ao did not give him any chance and continued to kick and stomp on Xiong Da without any care. Each kick and stomp were forceful and gave no quarters for Xiong Da to even recover. "This is way too easy!!! I should have just allowed him to punch me once." Ji Ao thought to himself as he sniggered and continued by going over him and sat on his belly.

"This is the most comfortable punching bag I have ever enjoyed." Ji Ao continued to punch repeatedly as Xiong Da tried to block the attacks to his face with his hands. The jabs from Ji Ao started to show its effects as Xiong Da arms and chest started to bleed.

This was one of the passive technique of the Crazy Crocodile Style. Able to bleed the opponent despite using fists.

"Xiong Xiong!" Ruo Ying saw Xiong Da being beaten so badly that she wanted to go to the third floor and stop Ji Ao. Xue Ping grabbed her hand and told her to calm down.

"Calm down?! Xiong Xiong is risking his life for me! Betting his personal possession for me! And he is bleeding like crazy just for me! How can I stand here and not do anything? I did nothing but hurt his feelings for the past few months and I have regretted my stupid choice for ignoring him ever since because I really love him so much that I do not want to hurt him with my problems!" Ruo Ying broke down again as she tried to struggle out of Xue Ping's grab. She even portrayed her cultivation of the Esthetic Egret Style but it was no match for the Prancing Puma.

"That beetch!" Ji Ao apparently heard the whole conversation through a loudspeaker from Shi Zuo's phone. "You! Are you also in cahoots!?" Ji Ao realised that the guy he chose was a mistake.

"Does not matter, this Xiong Xiong of yours has been broken by me and you will be too." Ji Ao cursed under his breath.

"That was not part of the plan at all, Bro." Xiong Da looked at Shi Zuo with tears. Tears of joy and happiness that Ruo Ying felt that way for him.

"Luo Bo wants to play cupid again. I am just the cupid bow." Shi Zuo shrugged his shoulders and Xiong Da could only laugh. "Please thank Ms Cupid for me."

"What are you laughing at?!" Ji Ao wanted to throw another punch but Xiong Da eyes turned extremely deadly and even managed to catch Ji Ao's punch with ease.

"I was just playing with you but playtime is over because the Hippo needs Egret for some alone time together." Xiong Da said with a grin on his face as he portrayed his Hungry Hippo Style.

"One… Two… Three? Four?!!" Ji Ao was panicking as he saw four hippos right above Xiong Da's head and then he felt something crushed so easily and realised that it was his fist. They were all into pieces. Only after that realisation did he notice the pain.

"ARRRRRGGGHHH!!!!" Ji Ao screamed.

Xiong Da returned the favours by holding onto his right arm and broke them into two and later crushed them with raw brute strength. "Oh, I purposely chose this boxing ring because I knew you were a boxer and now I am beating you in your own field. To show just how pathetic you are."

Afterwards, Xiong Da held onto Ji Ao's legs and slammed with a simple overhead throw which crippled his back immediately. "I am going to crush your bones one by one. Especially your hands and legs which were used to abuse Ruo Ying."

It was then that Jin suddenly turned off the telecast and all the stations were back to the dungeon fights that were ongoing.

"AWWWWW BOSSS!!" The entire crowd was booing at Boss Jin.

"Hey! There might be minors in this shop okay? It was kind of obvious who would win." Jin said and almost every customer started complaining. "If you wish to continue, you can buy the streaming download feature. If you want, you can watch the playback of this match. I assure you this way you will not miss any of it." Jin said nonchalantly.

"Damn it, Boss, if I did not respect you, I would have beaten you up now on the spot for being this shameless and ruthless in business." One of the customers complained as he quickly signed up for the streaming feature in the Pandamonium.

Jin could only smile politely. "It's nothing personal… It's just good business."
