Chapter 2974: Chapter 2974: Entering the Game
During the intermission, the next round of betting officially began.
When Lin Yi’s new opponent appeared, many tourists were still surprised.
Because they knew a bit about the person coming up this time as well.
"This guy named Du Sa, I know a bit about him. Seems like he came in last month, not that skilled. Participated in over ten matches and only won one."
"And that one win was because his opponent suddenly cramped and couldn’t continue, so he got a lucky break."
"I heard they’re probably going to kick him out. Someone this weak really doesn’t belong here."
"This round is easy to bet on. That Asian guy even beat Sweed, now fighting Du Sa, he’s sure to win."
"I’m betting more this round, putting everything on that Asian guy, I need to get back my losses!"
After the fight schedule was confirmed, the tourists in the arena started placing bets like crazy.
The money bet on Lin Yi once exceeded 200,000.
"You guessed right, they must have changed their strategy." Ning Che said with a smile.
"I guess this is their last stance. If they lose again, they’re sure to take action."
"Let’s put the first round aside, the situation in the second round was so unreasonable that tourists have started to get suspicious. If they lose again in the third round, the anger will definitely explode."
"That’s exactly the effect we want, not only to take their money but also to pressure them with these tourists. That’s what makes it fun."
Just as the two were talking, Gruda walked over.
"Haha, this is great, you’re definitely going to win this one." Gruda said laughingly:
"Your opponent is called Du Sa, very weak. I bet you can beat him with one hand."
"Thanks for the encouragement." Lin Yi replied with a smile:
"But let’s quit while we’re ahead, don’t place any bets."
"How can that be, there’s no reason not to bet on a sure thing like this."
"Then suit yourself."
I’ve done what I can, but if he doesn’t listen, there’s no point in saying more.
Soon, the third round was about to start, and betting time was nearing its end.
Ning Che elegantly walked to the staff and discovered that the odds for this person named Du Sa were very high.
If he wins, at least double the returns!
And this time, it wasn’t the previous person receiving Ning Che, but Carl, the manager.
When Carl saw Ning Che, he smiled, "Ma’am, how much will you bet this time?"
"Four million."
Carl’s eyes lit up. If she really placed such a large bet, all the losses could be recouped.
"Alright, I’ll arrange that for you now."
"Mm, this time I’m betting on Du Sa."
"Hmm?!"
Upon hearing this, everyone present was stunned.
Their expressions turned unnatural.
They had just analyzed that this man and woman were intentionally setting up a scam.
If in this round, she continued to bet on her own man, it would mean they were overthinking it.
But now, she actually bet against her own side!
This explained everything!
Carl’s face changed and he did not agree immediately, instead saying:
"Ma’am, please wait a moment, I need to check with the boss."
"Of course." Ning Che said gracefully.
Carl turned around, contacted Jerome through the intercom, and said:
"Mr. Jerome, that woman is betting on Du Sa!"
Jerome’s voice was exceptionally calm, which surprised Carl a bit.
"But these two are obviously frauds."
"I know, don’t worry, they won’t be able to leave."
Upon hearing this, Carl understood the implication.
"I know what to do."
With that response, Carl put down the intercom and turned back to face Ning Che.
"You can place your bet now."
"Alright."
The betting process went smoothly, finished in less than a minute.
At this time, everyone in the fight club was excited.
The tourists believed there was no suspense in this round and they would surely recoup their losses.
Jerome and Carl believed that although they were trying to scam them out of money, ultimately they wouldn’t get out, and all their money would end up staying here.
Ning Che was happy because she gained a few more tens of thousands in pocket money.
After betting concluded, the third round began in earnest as Du Sa stepped onto the ring under everyone’s watchful eyes.
His appearance starkly contrasted with the earlier Sweed.
He was trembling all over, his eyes dodging as he glanced at Lin Yi, not daring to meet his gaze directly.
"Brother, I’m just here to make a living, hope you take it easy on me, because I still need to work elsewhere."
"Alright." Lin Yi responded with a smile.
The referee cast a disdainful glance at Du Sa, then looked at Lin Yi.
"Ready to start?"
"Whenever you are."
Bong—
The gong sounded.
The third round officially began.
Du Sa took his stance but was very nervous, not daring to attack.
Lin Yi approached him actively, and Du Sa seized the moment, aiming a punch at Lin Yi’s face.
Lin Yi didn’t dodge, took the blow solidly, and fell to the ground with a thud.
Ning Che slapped her forehead.
This was a bit over the top.
This punch, with so many flaws, even her grandmother in a wheelchair could avoid it.
"Hm?!"
The arena fell into silence.
Seeing Lin Yi lying on the ground, even the referee was bewildered.
"Get up already!"
Lin Yi didn’t respond, continued playing dead on the floor.
This left the referee at a loss.
If he lost this round, there would be big trouble.
"What’s the referee doing, the man’s down, start the count already." Ning Che shouted loudly.
Seeing no intention from Lin Yi to get up, the referee was forced to start the count and finally declare Du Sa the winner.
On the ring, Du Sa was just as stunned.
He actually won?
After the announcement, Lin Yi brushed off the dust and stood up from the ground.
Then he and Ning Che walked over to Carl.
"Thanks for your money, we’ll be going now."
"Heh, then good luck to you." Carl sneered.
Ning Che smiled and linked arms with Lin Yi as they headed for the door.
Meanwhile, it seemed the tourists in the arena also realized.
They might have been tricked.
Set up by the fight club, and they started shouting loudly.
Simultaneously, the two made it to the first floor, where two burly men in vests stopped Lin Yi.
"Won money and want to leave, not gonna happen, come with us."
As he spoke, one of them pulled out a knife and pressed it against Lin Yi’s neck.
"Let’s talk this over, no need for violence." Lin Yi said cheerfully, offering no resistance.
"Then let’s go, our boss wants to see you."
With that, under the strong men’s coercion, the two went to the second floor.
And they met Jerome.
"You think I don’t see through your plan?" Jerome said with a sneer.
