Max Level Return—I'll Protect That Fragile One

The young man shook his head and said, ”I just arrived today, haven’t fought yet.”

”Oh?” Xu Xingguang asked him, ”You’re so young and good-looking, why worry about not making money? Why come to a place like this?” She looked around, taking in every contestant’s reaction, and said in a grave tone, ”This is a place that devours people without spitting out the bones.”

The young man replied, ”I got injured, and it was the manager of the boxing ring who saved me. He won’t let me leave, saying I have to stay and box until I earn fifty million before I can leave.”

The young man shrugged and said, ”I don’t remember anything, and I have no money, so I can only stay here.”

Xu Xingguang scrutinized the other party.

After a moment, she shifted her gaze and said with a sneer, ”Aren’t you silly? If you save someone, you should call the police and send them to the hospital. He said he saved you, and you believe him? Maybe he’s the one who harmed you.”

Xu Xingguang said earnestly, ”In a place like this, hardly anyone would save someone out of kindness. They only save two kinds of people.”

The young man asked Xu Xingguang for clarification, ”What kind of people?”

”People who can be profitable, and those who have a grudge against them.”

For profitable people, rescuing them from danger naturally brings many benefits. Saving enemies, it’s naturally to torment and retaliate against them even more severely.

After hearing Xu Xingguang’s words, the young man’s gaze became clear and aloof.

”You’re right.” Pausing, the young man solemnly thanked Xu Xingguang, ”Thank you.”

Xu Xingguang waved her hand, ”No need.”

”Everyone, draw lots!”

The host’s staff brought a lot-drawing box, inviting them to draw lots.

Tonight, only five people must appear in the ring. Xu Xingguang signed up last-minute, so she has to appear tonight.

Li Yucheng is the Boxing King. He doesn’t need to draw lots, he only needs to fight one match against tonight’s contestant with the most victories.

Of course, the contestant with the most victories could be a human boxer or a beast.

Most often, the beast has the highest chance of winning.

The remaining contestants have to draw lots at the organizer’s place. Four people who draw the number 1 must fight.

Contestants were very nervous during the lot-drawing.

Once the results came out, some were happy, some were worried, and some remained expressionless. The young man who spoke with Xu Xingguang earlier drew the number 1.

The four who drew number 1, along with Xu Xingguang, went to the organizer for a second round of lot-drawing.

The one chosen by their draw must appear in the ring to fight them.

If they win, they can safely get through the night. If they lose, they will either die or be maimed.

During the drawing, some carefully selected from the boxes, while others casually grabbed two spherical balls and left. The young man, he was straightforward, grabbed a ball and left.

Xu Xingguang was straightforward too.

She grabbed two balls, turned, opened the ball cover, smoothed the paper inside, and saw two names.

Wang Qiubo and Gelie.

Those who drew a lot need to register with the organizer.

When Xu Xingguang announced the name ’Wang Qiubo,’ a short but muscular man stepped out from the crowd.

He was somewhat smug, looking at Xu Xingguang with a smile in his eyes.

He was unlucky, having to appear tonight. But his luck turned good, because his opponent was a weak little girl.

”Little girl, if you lose and beg for mercy, brother will show you mercy,” Wang Qiubo deemed Xu Xingguang sure to lose.

Xu Xingguang ignored him, reading out the second name: ”Gelie.”

Hearing the name ’Gelie,’ the room fell silent again.

Seeing this, the staff looked at Xu Xingguang with sympathy.

Realizing why, Xu Xingguang guessed the reason.

Sure enough, Li Yucheng said with ill intent, ”Gelie is a fierce fighter in the Wild Beast Zone, a battle-hardened and temperamental tiger. It has been fighting in the Beast Fighting Arena for three years and has never been defeated.”

”Little girl, you’re doomed.”

Hearing this, the young man standing by the wall looked at Xu Xingguang with pity.

But Li Yucheng had a relaxed expression.

Even if Xu Xingguang had some skills and could miraculously defeat the man named Wang Qiubo, she would die under Gelie’s claws.

Perhaps the audience also loves to see the thrilling scene of a petite, fragile girl battling a fierce tiger.

Under the sympathetic gaze of everyone, Xu Xingguang once again approached the staff and joined the others to draw lots to decide the order of appearance.
