Max Level Return—I'll Protect That Fragile One

The organizers’ manager stood at a high vantage point, overlooking the scene with a look of surprise in his eyes. ”What’s going on? How can Gelie be afraid of her?” Such a situation had never occurred since the Beast Fighting Arena opened.

Gelie is a naturally brutal destroyer, bought by the arena for a high price from thieves. Through the arena’s specialized, cruel training, Gelie had become a competent and outstandingly violent killing machine.

Afraid?

Besides bullets, it fears nothing.

But Lady S seems to have no special traits, so why does she invoke fear in Gelie?

The manager’s expression appeared somewhat confused.

”Elder Lin.” The manager respectfully turned to the elderly woman beside him, dressed in a black one-piece cheongsam, and asked her, ”What do you think, what method did Lady S use?”

In her hand, Elder Lin fiddled rhythmically with a string of Buddha beads.

Her snow-white hair was meticulously coiled into a bun, and beneath her aged brows, her eyes could not hide their murkiness, yet they still retained sharpness.

After a moment of contemplation, Elder Lin suddenly stopped the movement of the beads. Clutching the railing in front of her with her left hand, she exclaimed in amazement, ”Could this possibly be the long-lost Beast Taming Skill?”

It is said that in the Ancient Country Era thousands of years ago, there were prodigies who could wield the Beast Taming Skill.

Such people had a well-known professional title, called Beast Tamer.

Beast Tamers, through special training, could establish a connection with all beasts that surpassed blood relations and, through this special connection, overwhelm and tame them in terms of aura.

Some say they could establish a soul connection with the beasts.

However, these are merely legendary tales found in bizarre stories and notes.

Elder Lin wasn’t sure if her guess was correct, but no matter what method this Lady S used, she was a person of great value. ”Send someone to ask her if she’d be willing to stay and become our Beast Tamer.”

After thinking for a moment, Elder Lin added, ”Just say we’d like to sincerely hire her as a Beast Tamer.”

The Beast Tamers they hire are free, unlike those participants without rights.

Nodding, the manager said, ”Understood.”

As Gelie retreated into the cage without putting up a fight, Xu Xingguang won. She glanced at the host, who stood like a puppet, and reminded him, ”I won.”

The host snapped back to reality, looking at Xu Xingguang with newfound respect and awe.

”Congratulations to Lady S, for winning two rounds in a row!” The host assumed that having won two rounds, Xu Xingguang would collect her earnings and leave in style.

But Xu Xingguang said, ”By the rules, once a participant wins two consecutive rounds, they can challenge any participant present tonight to a life-and-death match. Is that right?”

Upon hearing this, the host was stunned.

The audience, upon hearing Xu Xingguang’s words, guessed her true intention.

It turned out she had come to the arena to seek vengeance!

”According to the rules, indeed that’s correct,” the host eagerly asked Xu Xingguang, ”I wonder which participant Miss S intends to challenge tonight?”

Xu Xingguang pointed towards the participants’ rest area and called out loudly, ”Boxing King Ah Cheng!”

Ah Cheng was Li Yucheng’s alias in the Underground Beast Fighting Arena.

Upon hearing this, not only was the host dumbfounded, but the audience was as well.

Lady S actually wanted to challenge Boxing King Ah Cheng!

What an exciting scene this was!

What is a life-and-death match?

Once the fight begins, unless one party dies, it cannot be stopped midway—a cruel battle to the death. That’s a life-and-death match.

Generally, people without great enmity would not easily provoke a life-and-death match.

Tonight, many of them had come specifically for Boxing King Ah Cheng.

They were eager to see Boxing King Ah Cheng unleashing his ferocity on stage.

If they could witness Lady S and Boxing King Ah Cheng in a life-and-death match, that would truly be thrilling!

Li Yucheng, upon seeing Xu Xingguang use a weird method to scare off the fierce Gelie, became unsettled. He knew that Lady S would certainly challenge him to a life-and-death match tonight.

Upon really hearing Xu Xingguang issue a challenge to him, Li Yucheng calmed down instead.

Hmph.

Since she wants to court death, he’ll fulfill that wish!

”Boxing King!”

”Boxing King!”

”Boxing King!”

Amidst the chants of thousands, Boxing King Li Yucheng, wearing a pair of blue fighting pants, confidently strode to the stage.

Wearing a human skin mask, the audience couldn’t see his true appearance.

But they could see the countless scars of varying sizes all over Li Yucheng’s body.
