There were seats all around the arena.

It was full with almost 10,000 spectators.

The matches today were put together by some of the largest powers. The moment word of the Underground Champion’s appearance got out, tons of fans flocked to get tickets for this session.

Before it even began, cheers could already be heard at the entrance. The Xu family members were slightly shocked by the enthusiasm all around.

The word “Bets” was hung at each entrance.

This was the rule of the game.

They were to place their bets for whoever they supported.

Everyone had their eyes on the fourth match of the day—the match involving the Mas family.

News of this match had already been spreading for half a month.

Although it was made known that Bo Te suffered an eye injury, it didn’t stop supporters from admiring or believing in him.

Xu Yaoguang wasn’t interested in this.

Second Uncle Xu and the other Xu family members placed their bets on the Mas family and then headed for the spectator area.

They had designated seats—the first three rows of the block, and right beside Carlo and the rest.

Cheng Mu sat right beside one of the people-in-charge from the Mas family and didn’t feel anything off about it.

Second Uncle Xu sat on Cheng Mu’s right and turned to ask Xu Yaoguang on his right, “Young Master Xu, are we sitting in the wrong place…”

Carlo was sitting in the row in front of them.

The huge Mas family was behind them.

It wasn’t that Second Uncle Xu despised the Xu family, but their seats were way too good.

Xu Yaoguang leaned back in his chair and thought about it.

He remembered what Qin Ran did the night before.

“Maybe, because of Qin Ran…” he said quietly.

But…

Something seemed wrong.

Xu Yaoguang furrowed his brows slightly.

Second Uncle Xu did not think too much. He just kept his eyes on the center of the ring.

There were four huge screens around the arena to ensure that even the spectators in the back could have a good view.

The first three rounds involved other powers and forces, but not the Underground Champion himself. Even so, the matches were rather exciting.

The overhead cameras captured all the details and highlights on the ring.

“This one…” Second Uncle Xu took a deep breath after watching the three consecutive matches. None of them involved the Underground Champion yet.

After a few minutes of interval, the emcee, clad in black, emerged once again.

The fourth round—

The Underground Champion that everyone had been waiting for!

Holding the microphone, he excitedly announced, “This is the match we’ve all been waiting for—the duel between the Underground Alliance and the Mas family!”

“Let’s welcome… Harold from the Underground Alliance!”

As he made the announcement, a platform rose in the middle of the ring, to the left of the emcee.

On the screen, everyone could see the carved golden lion on the black headpiece he was wearing. His build was bulky and intimidating.

The threatening look in his eyes couldn’t be mistaken.

The crowd went mad as he appeared.

“Harold!”

“Harold!”

Xu Yaoguang was speechless.

This was the loudest chant he’d heard.

Even Second Uncle Xu and Cheng Mu’s blood was gus.h.i.+ng.

“Who’s this Harold?” Qin Ran wasn’t around, so Cheng Mu asked someone from the Mas family.

Although this person had never seen Cheng Mu before, he was polite to him as he saw that he was sitting in the second row. “This is the second Underground Champion, Harold! The golden lion mask is his icon. After making a name for himself, he went missing for some time. n.o.body could have expected that he’d sign under the Underground Alliance! It was only after he left that Bo Te became so well-known! Both of them had never fought before.”

Although this was a duel between the Underground Alliance and the Mas family, the Mas family members couldn’t help but cheer for Harold as well.

“So it was Harold that the Underground Alliance found.” Before them, the team leader sitting beside Harold sprung to his feet. “Has Bo Te’s vision recovered yet?”

“No.” Carlo shook his head. “Mr. Bo Te’s is an old injury. Medication won’t cure it.”

“Then, how is Bo Te going to fight Harold? He’s been out of the scene for years, who knows how good he could be by now. Bo Te’s eye is still injured, that will affect his performance…” The team leader seemed a little concerned.

As he expected, the Mas family supporters were in shock. “It’s Harold! Mas family, you’re too disappointing!”

The payout rate for Mas’s family was shown to be 3.9, but it was still rising.

It soon reached 9.9.

Evidently, many people threw in all their life savings after seeing how much money the Underground Alliance was using to bet on their victory.

They were betting on the Underground Alliance too.

Cheng Mu was just sitting there.

His cell phone suddenly vibrated; it was a notification from Qin Ran.

She simply asked him to bet on the Mas family.

Cheng Mu checked how much balance he had left in his card. It wasn’t much.

He sent Cheng Jin a message—

[Bro, lend me 10 million yuan.]

Cheng Jin did not ask a thing. A minute later, Cheng Mu received the notification from the bank.

After receiving the money, he transferred it into his betting account and put in 10,200,000 yuan.

“Mr. Cheng Mu, if you’re putting in so much, you should be putting in for…” Second Uncle Xu seemed a little worried for the Mas family. He couldn’t help but turn to look at Cheng Mu after seeing his bet.

When he saw the 10,200,000 yuan, he had thought that Cheng Mu was betting on the Underground Alliance as well.

But when he saw the change in rates, he realized that it was…

The Mas family?!

Was he mad?

Second Uncle Xu asked him, “Did you choose the wrong option?”

Cheng Mu looked down at Qin Ran’s message, then at the blue team (the Mas family) that he’d bet on. He shook his head. “Nope. Uncle Xu, you can continue increasing your bet too. It’s a 9.9 payout rate, you can get rich overnight.”

Second Uncle Xu knew that the people around Cheng Juan were all fairly rich.

But his heart was already aching from the 500,000 yuan bet. He shook his head and said, “No, thanks.”
