Chapter Summary
The opponent Liu Ning is competing against is the controller of this place, who is also the only strong person here. However, with so many people watching, and the possibility of being forced to cut in line if he lost, Liu Ning didn't have much time and could only choose to end the match gracefully. Being defeated by Liu Ning was an honor for the controller; at least he would have something to brag about when talking to others, and he wouldn't have been defeated by an unknown nobody.
The 15-kilometer journey was quick. When Liu Ning got off the bus, he realized just how poor the place was. It was similar to Sandy's original settlement, practically the poorest place imaginable. Compared to this, Wei Xiong's settlement was considered relatively wealthy.
The opponent Liu Ning is competing against is the controller of this place, who is also the only strong person here. Just like Wei Xiong's gathering point, he also supports this gathering point by his own strength.
Wei Xiong's arena was at least a proper arena, at least they had set up a platform. But this place was completely different. They didn't even have the ability to build a platform. Although the garrison headquarters allocated enough funds, they only drew a white line on the ground. The area inside the white line was the grid I used, and the area outside was what I called "outside." If anyone protested, this place would definitely be punished by the garrison headquarters because this was blatant corruption.
However, Liu Ning didn't have time to worry about that. His only thought was to get the match going. The condition of the venue was irrelevant to him. Besides, it was rare for them to see him anyway. Not dwelling on it relieved the other side, and the naval base staff naturally wouldn't cause any trouble. If anyone complained, they would certainly order the venue to be rebuilt, but that would disrupt the match. Compared to the match, the condition of the venue was unimportant—at least, that's what Liu Ning thought.
When Liu Ning saw the controller take the stage, he felt a surge of excitement. The controller was nearly 60 years old and had lost an arm. It was quite remarkable that he could still participate in the battle under such conditions. In fact, the controller knew that he had no chance of winning. He was just thinking about going as far as possible so that he could get more prize money. It was difficult to even get food at this gathering point, so any place where he could obtain funds was very important.
If it weren't for the need to enter the ancient ruins, Liu Ning would definitely have chosen to lose this match. However, with so many people watching, and the possibility of being forced to cut in line if he lost, Liu Ning didn't have much time and could only choose to end the match gracefully.
Upon seeing Liu Ning, the controller understood and nodded with satisfaction. Being defeated by Liu Ning was an honor for the controller; at least he would have something to brag about when talking to others, and he wouldn't have been defeated by an unknown nobody.
Liu Ning didn't make a move, but simply spread out his protective aura. This controller was nearly 60 years old and his original strength wasn't much. When he encountered Liu Ning's protective aura, he was forced to take several steps back. Liu Ning remained standing still, which was a warning to the other party. If the other party understood, he should admit defeat now.
The old man looked at Liu Ning somewhat awkwardly. When he was Liu Ning's age, he was very nervous about going into the wild. But Liu Ning was no ordinary person now. The old man shook his head helplessly. One cannot deny the passage of time, especially when one is facing a young genius. So the old man slowly walked out of the white line. Liu Ning could see that this was probably what it meant for a hero to fall.
"Uncle, please wait a moment. Although I won this match, I don't want my prize money. Consider it a small token of my appreciation. I know it's not easy for you to support this gathering place. If you encounter any problems in the future, you can always come to me. I will definitely help you if there is anything I can."
Liu Ning pulled out 1 million yuan in cash, all in 10,000 yuan bills. Liu Ning's action surprised those around him. This guy had clearly won, so why was he giving out so much money? In many people's eyes, Liu Ning was just crazy. If he had so much money he couldn't spend it all, he wouldn't need to resort to such a method.
The old man didn't say anything, but he gripped Liu Ning's hand tightly. He hadn't wanted to admit defeat, but seeing Liu Ning's clear eyes and thinking about the time he had spent, he had no choice but to concede. If they continued fighting, he probably wouldn't be able to win. If he got injured, he wouldn't even have the money to treat his injuries. If he died, the people below would probably become refugees, and their lives would be unimaginable.
The old man was a man of pride. After taking Liu Ning's money, he didn't know what to say. But if he didn't take the money, the number of people starving to death would likely continue to rise. So the old man prepared to bow to Liu Ning. He had never bent his back in his life, but today, for the sake of the people under his command, he had no choice but to do so. However, Liu Ning didn't let the old man bow. The old man had fought for humanity in the past, so how could Liu Ning let him do such a thing? If he really accepted it, would he still be human?
Liu Ning has now won three matches and should have entered the knockout stage, so he was about to take out his smart device to check things out. But as soon as he raised his hand, a whole bunch of black cars appeared outside.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way! What kind of trash are you? Don't you even know how expensive my suit is? You guys think you can get any closer? Are you all tired of living? Where is your boss? We're here to take back the houses. You've owed us so much money. If you can't pay it back, don't blame us for being impolite. We'll just tear down this pile of rubble."
Dozens of people got out of the black sedan. These people were all tall and strong, including two soldiers. It seems that this gathering point, like other gathering points, had mortgaged its land in order to survive. Now these people were here to collect the land.
If Liu Ning hadn't encountered this situation, he certainly wouldn't have been able to handle it. But now that he has, he can't ignore it. Everyone is human, and although unfair things happen every day, Liu Ning can't let these people run rampant under his nose.
Liu Ning lightly tapped the ground twice with his foot, and the force began to spread, creating a crack about two centimeters wide that extended from Liu Ning's side. Unfortunately, the men in black saw nothing...
