Underground boxing can be deadly, although it doesn’t happen very often.

Organizers also need people to participate and make money for them, rather than having them die one by one.

But when necessary, death is possible.

The essence of underground boxing is the audience’s violent outlet. Regardless of social class, everyone has their own pressures. Over time, many people hide dark impulses in their hearts and need a point of release.

Some people vent their anger online, others drink heavily and sing or cry, some fight and even kill, while others watch people fight and kill to satisfy their unusual desires.

In fact, the commonality is that they probably regret it afterwards. “Why did I drink so much last night? I feel terrible today.”

But in that moment of the night, give me three more drinks!

The underground boxing spectators are usually elegant and elite during the day, but at the moment of bloodshed, their violent tendencies are more brutal than anyone else’s.

If combined with gambling and a heated atmosphere, it becomes even more brutal.

“Trash! Kill her! Trash!”

The scene of the big man being kicked down the ring by Moon Shadow completely angered the spectators who had placed bets on him, and the atmosphere became somewhat riotous. Some people even tried to rush down the railing.

“Roar!” The big man clenched the edge of the ring tightly with one hand and surprisingly hung in the air with only one hand without falling.

“Use your shadow blade to cut off his hand! What are you waiting for, you bitch!” The spectators who had bet on Moon Shadow continued to curse.

Moon Shadow couldn’t hear how people were cursing her in the midst of the noisy atmosphere. She had no strength left. She wanted to go and land another blow, but the pain in her lower abdomen from the earlier strike made her feel like she was falling apart. Blood continued to drip down under the mask, staining the black clothing with dark red splotches.

She gasped weakly, slowly moving towards the big man.

This opponent was not an ability user, just an ordinary fighter, but his ability to restrict her own gravitational force just now, as well as his current suspension, must have had an outsider interfering to help him.

Which was a foul.

The manager of this place should have noticed, so why didn’t he stop it?

“You lose one game, and you owe me one million.” The cold voice echoed in her mind.

“That would be painful.”

“…If you’re already in pain, then it’s okay, right?”

Moon Shadow never thought that these words would come out of this person’s mouth… She initially felt a sense of familiarity when she saw him, but these few words shattered that feeling.

They’re all the same.

If it’s so painful, then it’s okay to lose…

Her mind was in chaos, and Moon Shadow slowly moved to the edge of the ring, trying to kick the big man’s hand that was clinging to the edge.

“Whoosh!” The other party suddenly leaped up and ended up behind Moon Shadow’s head, kicking her in the back of the head.

The scene erupted again!

Moon Shadow didn’t know where the idea of “losing” had gone. She urgently bent down, sweating profusely, and dodged this flying kick.

This isn’t losing… This is death!

Are they trying to kill me?

“This is…” Chu Ge was initially shocked, but at this point, he had already calmed down.

Qiu Wuji said, “There is an external force helping this man float, this is cheating, our neighbor is going to die.”

“Die?” Chu Ge looked at Moon Shadow dodging the opponent’s frantic attacks at the edge of the ring, somewhat puzzled. “Can’t she just jump off the stage if she wants to surrender?”

Qiu Wuji was a little sarcastic, “If I’m not mistaken, her chances of dying are higher. Besides, if she knows she’s being cheated, she might cause trouble for the arena in the future. Even if she doesn’t die on the stage, she will try to kill the cheater outside of it – that’s why someone is tracking her. The person who walked through the wall was probably just scouting out where she lives, so the commission was only ten thousand yuan.”

Chu Ge frowned. Qiu Wuji’s analysis was reasonable. Having worked in both the black and white worlds for a long time, the principles were similar.

Is this neighbor going to die?

Moon Shadow also wanted to jump off the stage and surrender.

But she couldn’t jump away.

Her dodging movements became heavier and heavier, and as she was injured, she was unable to break free from the gravitational pull and felt like all her organs had turned into lead and mercury, constantly pulling her downwards.

The opponent’s fist was getting closer and closer.

Moon Shadow calmed down as she looked at the bloodthirsty gaze of her opponent. Suddenly, she wondered, if she died, would it not hurt anymore?

Just then, the pressure on her body lightened, and the bondage of gravitational pull was inexplicably released.

Without any time to think, Moon Shadow instinctively flipped backwards to dodge the punch, and found herself standing outside the ring.

The noise stopped for half a second in an instant, and then erupted into even greater insults. Many people tried to rush the stands but were held back by some kind of restraint, causing chaos like a cage of beasts.

Moon Shadow dragged her injured body and quickly entered the corridor to leave, soon arriving at the elevator. She had naturally lost the money, so she didn’t need to mention it. The most important thing now was to escape and save her life.

She suddenly hesitated. In her current state, wasn’t the elevator a death trap? Could she really leave safely?

The elevator door opened right then, and Moon Shadow instinctively glanced inside. Seeing the person inside, she no longer hesitated and quickly rushed in.

The elevator closed and began to ascend.

Upstairs, someone watched her departure quietly from behind a glass window, frowning slightly in puzzlement.

“Big Brother, I didn’t release her from the bondage of gravity. Someone interfered!” A red-haired youth behind him was eager to explain.

The man didn’t turn around and waved his hand, saying, “I know, I’m not blaming you.”

The red-haired youth sighed in relief, “Big Brother, was someone assisting her? Should we cut off the elevator power or ambush her outside?”

The man sighed, “Check the surveillance footage. There’s no one in the elevator except for a smoke bomb. They’ve already left through another way.”

The red-haired youth didn’t believe him and checked the footage, only to find the elevator empty. He reluctantly checked the previous footage, which was completely clean and had nothing on it.

“The other side has powerful supernatural abilities. All the surveillance cameras on them have been blank since they entered the nightclub. This kind of traceless existence is the sign of an experienced operator.”

“Could it be the police?”

The man sighed, “Close up. The idiot who can phase through walls has been caught. Although he was just an outsider and didn’t know our situation, he at least knew about underground fighting. The authorities are probably investigating, so we need to lay low for a while and stop all operations.”

“What about Moon Shadow?”

“We lost our best chance to kill her when she entered the elevator.” The man looked at the elevator, lost in thought, and muttered to himself, “I’ll find another way.”

“Yes.” Several people, including the red-haired young man, respectfully saluted and seemed to be convinced of the man’s decision.

Although he seemed a bit indecisive today…for example, even if Moon Shadow wasn’t in the elevator, she couldn’t have gone too far, so why not search and pursue her?

Most likely, he was afraid of the police. As the big brother who oversees the overall situation, it’s prudent to be cautious…
