Fist Fortress

"Brother, let me ask you something."

Liu San'er was suddenly stopped by someone. He was about to get angry, but when he turned his head and saw a person wearing a blue ogre mask standing there, he was immediately startled.

"Who are you?"

Liu San'er took a step back.

Under the dim light, the other person's shadow was stretched long. Beneath the blue ogre mask were a pair of indifferent eyes, which looked somewhat eerie.

"Do you know how to get to Qingyuan Fist Fortress?"

The masked person was Li Fei in disguise.

He had learned that there was a place in Qingyuan District that specialized in underground boxing matches, called Qingyuan Fist Fortress, so he was asking around for directions.

Hearing the words 'Qingyuan Fist Fortress', Liu San'er's eyes lit up, and he sized Li Fei up and down. "You want to fight?"

"Yes."

Li Fei deliberately spoke in a low voice.

He didn't want to reveal his original identity, so he disguised himself from his hairstyle to his mask, and even his voice.

Having just been attacked, Li Fei was being even more careful.

His disguise was one layer of protection.

The Overseeing Bureau's director had already made a statement about the attack, which was a second layer of protection.

Li Fei had learned that the Qingyuan Fist Fortress was not backed by the Tiger Sabre Gang. It was the only underground industry in Xing City that was not controlled by the Tiger Sabre Gang, and its status was very detached. This was a third layer of protection.

Finally, the Myriad Blood Bead and the unlocked Blood Soul skill Blood Rage gave Li Fei the confidence to come here.

"If you want to fight, then you've come to the right person!"

Liu San'er immediately perked up. "Brother, I'm a boxing agent for Qingyuan Fist Fortress. Do you know what an agent is? It's someone who specializes in arranging matches for boxers."

"Oh?"

"Brother, if you want to fight in Qingyuan Fist Fortress, you've come to the right person! Let's go, let's go, I'll take you to the Fist Fortress."

Liu San'er enthusiastically stepped forward to pull Li Fei, but Li Fei easily dodged him.

He didn't mind and smiled, signaling Li Fei to follow him.

Li Fei put one hand in his pocket, constantly clutching a bag of Lime Powder, and followed the other man through the streets and alleys of Qingyuan District.

A dozen minutes later, Liu San'er led Li Fei to a place surrounded by wooden walls.

"This is Qingyuan Fist Fortress."

Liu San'er pointed to the gate ahead.

Li Fei looked at the wooden gate, above which was a sign with the four large characters 'Qingyuan Fist Fortress'.

Inside the Fist Fortress were huge white tents, brightly lit and bustling with noise, much livelier than outside.

"Let's go, brother."

Liu San'er said.

He led Li Fei towards the gate of the Fist Fortress. There were guards stationed at the entrance. He took out a piece of paper and showed it to them, pointed at Li Fei, said a few words, and then the guards let him and Li Fei in.

"People outside the Fist Fortress have to buy tickets to watch the matches. The ticket prices vary depending on the level of the ring, with the cheapest being a dime and the most expensive being a yuan."

Liu San'er proudly waved the piece of paper in his hand at Li Fei. "But I'm a boxing agent, so I don't need to buy tickets when I bring a boxer in."

He showed off for a while, and when he saw that Li Fei was ignoring him, he didn't feel embarrassed. He continued to introduce to Li Fei:

"The Qingyuan Fist Fortress's rings are divided into four levels: 'Heaven Earth Black Yellow'. The highest is the Heaven-level ring, and the lowest is the Yellow-level ring. The higher the level of the ring, the higher the level of the boxers, the more spectators there are, and the higher the boxers' income will naturally be. But since you're a new boxer, you can only start from the lowest Yellow-level ring."

"You're an agent, how do you plan to split the money you earn with me? How much can I earn from a fight?"

Li Fei asked bluntly.

He still needed someone to help him integrate into this place for the time being, so he planned to listen to Liu San'er's conditions. If they weren't too outrageous, he could agree to them for the time being.

Liu San'er stopped smiling, looked into Li Fei's eyes, and said seriously, "Brother, if you can win the fight later, I won't take a single cent of the money you earn. It's all yours!"

Li Fei chuckled, "Wouldn't that be too much of a loss for you?"

Liu San'er shook his head, "Brother, let me be honest with you, the Fist Fortress needs strong new fighters. If I introduce you, the Fist Fortress will give me a bonus. And if you really make a name for yourself, I, as your agent, will also get a lot of benefits. A truly great fighter's agent won't suck the fighter dry, but will help the fighter earn more money. Cooperation benefits both sides, and a win-win situation is the real win."

Li Fei looked at this frivolous, seemingly disreputable guy with some surprise, not expecting him to say such things:

"So, you're a great fighter's agent?"

Hearing this, Liu San'er said with a gleam in his eyes, "I, Liu San'er, will definitely become the greatest fighter's agent in Qingyuan Fist Fortress!"

"Pfft—"

A snicker suddenly came from the side.

A man in a floral shirt, wearing bright red lipstick, and dressed flamboyantly walked towards them, covering his mouth as he laughed.

Behind him followed a burly man over six feet tall, with dark skin all over his body, like a black tower.

"Oh, who is it with such a big mouth, wanting to become the greatest fighter's agent in Qingyuan Fist Fortress? Turns out it's you, you little bum. Talking big without fear of straining your back."

The man in the floral shirt laughed.

Li Fei looked at this 'seductive' man and felt a strong sense of discomfort.

In comparison, he found the frivolous Liu San'er much more pleasing to the eye.

"Sister Hua, I was just joking."

Liu San'er, being mocked to his face, not only didn't get angry, but instead put on a smile and bent over to explain to the other party.

The man called 'Sister Hua' looked at Li Fei:

"Brought another newbie?"

"Yes, Sister Hua."

Liu San'er replied.

Sister Hua sized Li Fei up and down, and pinched a orchid finger:

"Making it quite mysterious, just don't know if he's any good. Coincidentally, I brought a newbie tonight too, why don't we let them have a Breaking Debut Battle."

Sister Hua pointed to the burly man standing behind him.

In Qingyuan Fist Fortress, new fighters who haven't been on stage are called 'newbies', and their first boxing match is called a 'Breaking Debut Battle'.

Hearing Sister Hua say this, Liu San'er's face stiffened, and he said with a forced smile, "Sister Hua, don't mess with me. The newbies you bring are all strong, how dare I have a boxing match with your newbie, forget it."

Sister Hua's eyes turned cold as he looked at Liu San'er, "What, not giving me face?"

"How dare I."

Liu San'er bent over, trying his best to keep a smile on his face, "Sister Hua, please let me go."

Sister Hua chuckled, "Tch, so useless."

He didn't really want his fighter to fight Li Fei, he just wanted to have some fun, he liked seeing people groveling in front of him.

Liu San'er just smiled, not daring to retort.

Sister Hua glanced at Li Fei, "Following such an agent, I think you're also a noth—"

"How much money do you get for winning against your guy?"

Before Sister Hua could finish speaking, Li Fei coldly interrupted him.

Liu San'er's face changed, and he quickly walked to Li Fei's side, whispering:

"Brother, this person is not to be trifled with in the Fist Fortress, the fighters he brings are very strong, we're here to make money, there's no need for this."

Li Fei looked at him, "Is this how you make money on your knees?"

In his previous life, during those two years of being suppressed, there wasn't much difference between him and making money on his knees.

But in this life, he didn't want to bow his head so easily again.

Liu San'er's face stiffened, revealing a smile that was uglier than crying, and he said with a forced smile, "Making money, it's not shameful..."

"It's very shameful."

Li Fei shook his head and stepped forward, "I'm here to earn money standing up."
