Chapter 177: Tournament Begins (2/2)
I nodded because what Ding Wenfeng said was indeed a fact. If I hadn’t been born again, and met Jiao Yazi who taught me Martial Arts, I probably wouldn’t believe in all this in my previous life either.
The tournament was hosted in the gymnasium of Japanese National University. Many such tournaments have been held here. Once, they even held the Asian Winter Games in the University.
The first match was a Korean representative against a Japanese representative. The moves of the two people were ordinary. One was using Karate, while the other used Taekwondo. The Korean displayed great prowess, aiming for the weaknesses like face and lower part of the body. The Japanese wasn’t bad either and held against his onslaught for a long time. Finally, the Japanese got beaten into a pig and was sent to the hospital, carried on a stretcher.
The victorious Korean player wasn’t in a good condition either. His left eye was blue, while his right eye had turned red, with his vest turned into a rag.
I didn’t have a favorable impression of the fighting methods of the two countries, so it had nothing to do with me whether the Korean won or the Japanese. Next was a fight between a Korean and Singaporean. Like that, it was soon noontime. I was about to bring Ding Wenfeng for a meal when at that moment, the staff of the tournament informed me it was my turn.
My heart roared at whoever the motherfuker was who arranged it like this, making me fight on a hungry stomach. Just when I wanted to look at the information about my opponent, I saw Yang Wei walk to the fighting ring. Apparently, he was my opponent!
“What’s going on here?” I asked the staff member next to me.
“Oh, about this. As the both of you are from the same country, you are considered a special group. As all of you are from the same University, you need to compete in a pre-requisite match to decide who will stay in the competition and fight the other Universities!” the staff member said to me.
“Is that so?” I didn’t know much about the tournament rules, nor did I ask more. Since Ding Wenfeng had said Yang Wei was a hateful guy, I might as well eliminate him!
“Indeed!” the staff member nodded towards me.
“Alright! So when do we begin?” I asked.
“First, you need to follow me and change into a special tournament suit,” the staff member said as he led me to the locker room.
I said a few words to Ding Wenfeng. When Ding Wenfeng heard I was going to fight against Yang Wei, he frowned and thought for a while, saying to me in the end, “I will go!”
“You are still like this, what are you going to do?” I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “Aren’t you afraid of getting the Martial Arts Society humiliated!”
“No! Yang Wei, this guy. I understand him very well. He is a sinister bastrd who will do anything to win!” Ding Wenfeng said, “And this guy isn’t weak either!”
