At the Fight Centre.

Lin Jie was a little shocked by the hot atmosphere when he stepped in the Fight Centre. In his previous life, he had not been to the street near the school as often because he had not been spending much time in school.

The football field-sized space was separated into Fight zone, Sanda zone, Sports zone, and many others, with the Game zone being the largest zone. In the Game zone, there was a large number of virtual devices which were connected to The New Age. However, this would not affect the game even if the player died because they would scan the gaming data directly with the identity card, and use the duplicate copy in the fights.

“Let’s go to the Fight zone.” Sun Kai reminded with a fierce look, “Money is needed to fight at this place. The minimum gambling money is 1,000. Can you afford that?”

Lin Jie raised his eyebrows, “1,000 only? That’s too little. Why not we bet 10,000? Can you afford that?”

Sun Kai’s let out a serious look as he could not afford 10,000 dollars of gambling money. Although they were gangsters, they were not bad people. For example, Sun Kai fought to earn face for the rich students, but he sold all the high-class wine and cigarettes and sent the money home, together with the money he earned in The New Age, to help to support his family.

They had become gangsters because they did not have any skills and had grown to be fierce-looking. What’s more, they could get an income easily for beating people, why not go ahead with it? As time passed, they had become like this.

“Brother Kai, we can pool money together, “one of the gangsters said softly.

“Yeah, 10,000 dollars is not a small amount. You can rank in the top 5 in the Sanda Club, it’s not hard for you to earn this 10,000 dollars.”

“Brother Kai, I have 1,600 dollars.”

Their movement was unnoticeable. By the time Lin Jie reached the Fight zone and ready to register a bet, Sun Kai had already put down 10,000 dollars at the notary’s table.

The notary was the judge. He counted the bet money, took out a few notes, and nodded for the start of the game.

The charge for each bet was 5% of bet money.

“The rule is simple. You can fight until one party gives in!” Sun Kai was like a fiend. He sneered with his fists cracked. “Lin Jie, to be honest, we don’t have any deep hatred, and I’m just ordered to teach you a lesson. I won’t benefit from hurting you. Why don’t you just let me beat you and give in? Then, kneel down in front of Zhang Yingfei to apologize, so that we can write off all our scores?”

Lin Jie’s eyes were cold, and he rushed towards Sun Kai like a hungry tiger at its prey. This was to strike terror in Sun Kai’s heart before he moved! Lin Jie had brought the fighting techniques from the game into reality after immersion in The New Age for so many years. His body sank as he assaulted, just like a fast and fierce arrow, bumping towards Sun Kai’s chest!

Lin Jie twisted like a rope on the way to assault, the astonishing radian of his body caused people to tremble in fright! Suddenly, with a sharp turn, his right hand indistinctly grew longer! His palm clawed and attacked towards Sun Kai’s chest.

This was the Bone Spur, which was the most familiarised by Lin Jie and the most powerful move! The basic moves in The Refined Punches were very helpful in exercising the bones, and the impact force was doubled as compared to the punches by Lin Jie with all his strength. This was the power of the moves!

Sun Kai was shocked and horrified. How could this average-sized young man have such great power? With a gust of wind in the air, he was frightened and his hands defended in front of his chest tightly.

Crack…

Sun Kai felt a stabbing pain in his arms and moved backward by many steps as he was bumped by the impact force!

“You lost!” Lin Jie jumped up again and kicked Sun Kai’s head in the air. As he had yet to recover from the pain, he lost balance when his head was kicked, and fell to the ground with a bang.

“Bro!”

“Sun Kai! Sun Kai! Don’t you f*cking lose! I gave you all my money!”

“Get up quickly, beat him to death, beat him!”

When Sun Kai fell to the ground, all the others felt anxious as they thought Lin Jie was a pushover and thus offered their money to bully him. Not to say, knocking down an ordinary freshman in a single punch, Sun Kai would only need a few minutes to do that. Wasn’t it a great deal to double their money in just a few minutes? However, they did not expect that Lin Jie was so strong that Sun Kai could not get up with his punch and kick!

Lin Jie folded his arms and relaxed his right hand. Although the Bone Spur was powerful, it consumed too much energy from his body. He still felt that his right hand was a little dislocated after every use of it, even though his body strength had improved with the long-term training.

Although it was much better than the immediate dislocation of his hand after using it for the first time, he had yet to master it. Wouldn’t he be invincible if the Bone Spur could be used limitlessly without damaging his body?

“You have lost,” Lin Jie said calmly as he was about to walk down the stage to get his bet money from the judge.

“Wait… wait!” Sun Kai stood up with his hand supported on the ground and shouted loudly, “I haven’t lost yet! Come on, let’s continue!”

Lin Jie sneered at Sun Kai, who was shaky and unsteady. “Do you still have the ability to fight?”

“Yes!” Sun Kai’s eyes were blood-red as he could not afford to lose! He must take the money back even if he was beaten to death! He did not expect that Lin Jie’s strength was as great as the former President of the Sanda Club. When he was punched, his chest had felt stuffy, and he could not breathe.

“OK, let’s continue then.” Lin Jie stepped on the stage, he shook his right hand, and his eyes became colder.

“Wait!” At this time, a gangster who was close to Sun Kai yelled from the audience. He could tell that if Lin Jie continued, Sun Kai would end up in the hospital. Hence, he yelled in a hurry, “Freshman… Lin Jie! Do you dare to bet with us again?”

“Oh? What do you want to bet on?” Lin Jie looked down from the stage and asked.

“Do you dare to compete with Sun Kai in the Game Zone?” The gangster yelled, “Sun Kai’s ID is Kill In Ten Steps! He’s the top 800 in the Rankings Board! If you don’t dare, we won’t embarrass you, but the bet will be canceled!”

Lin Jie stared at Sun Kai in surprise.

Kill In Ten Steps?

So that meant those guys were Unparalleled Advise, Gather of Three Flowers, Tornado of Sand And Stone and others?

Kill In Ten Steps had a little fame In Lin Jie’s previous life, not because of his battle power, but because of his team: The Ordinary People! Yes, this group of people in front of him had been the team members of The Ordinary People!

Lin Jie was excited, with a smile, he said, “OK! But I’m curious, how much will you charge for teaching me a lesson here?”

Walking towards the Game zone, Sun Kai touched his lips and said with a cold tone, “It’s none of your business!”

“I’ve no intention to care about your gang.” Lin Jie scoffed. “Since we’re betting in the game, we must add some good luck. How about we bet 200 gold coins?”

200 gold coins were about 40,000 dollars!

Sun Kai took a while to calculate. Adding together the gold coins in the team, they had only 20 in total as the majority of the gold coins they earned were sold for cash.

“OK!” Sun Kai nodded fiercely. Anyway, a man with nothing was never afraid of losing. It was not hard to win the game with his ability! If he won the game, he could make up for all the losses.

However, he encountered difficulties at the notary.

“Sun Kai, your character ‘Kill In Ten Steps’ doesn’t have 200 gold coins. Hence, you can’t start the bet.” The notary looked very serious.

Sun Kai slammed the table. “Can’t I owe it first? What’s the difference if I’m definitely winning the game?”

“This is the rule.” The notary frowned.

Lin Jie shook his hands. “I can pay for him first. Let’s get started, my noodles are getting cold.”

Sun Kai was shocked, and his face was flushes of red and white. He vomited a few words after a while, “Thank you… for giving me money, you overconfident idiot!”

ID scanning, iris scanning, connecting the devices…

“You can pick a map,” said Sun Kai. It seemed that this fellow was not hopeless as he felt guilty inside and gave his enemy such an important opportunity of picking the map. If Lin Jie was a Hunter and chose a forest map, as a Warrior, Kill In Ten Steps’ ability would be restrained. Similarly, a Mage could enhance his magic effects by choosing a map with a high concentration of magic elements, a Druid could improve his attributes by choosing a natural forest map…

However, this did not matter to Lin Jie. He was a Warrior, as well as a Berserker.

Berserkers just fought directly!

There was no other map more suited for Warriors than the plains. After Lin Jie clicked on the map, their characters were teleported to the fighting site.

Kill In Ten Steps, level 24, with a Silver Mammoth Elephant Suit, he was holding a Town Sword, which was a Gold weapon with good attributes. The handle was inlaid with a bright silver gemstone, which should be a low-grade gem from a fallen country, and it provided him with a +5 in attack level and +3 in parry level.

And at this moment, Lin Jie’s character also appeared from bottom to the top, and as the Kiara Beast King Armor fully appeared, Sun Kai was stunned. ‘Is it possible this person is…;

When the Lone Wolf Helmet appeared, Sun Kai shivered from head to toes. Finally, when he saw Broken Blade, which symbolized the identity of Codename Lone Wolf, he was totally in shock.

“It’s… It’s you! Codename Lone Wolf!” Kill In Ten Steps, whose huge body was covered with Mammoth Elephant Suit, was in a trance and then dropped his weapon on the ground.

“I didn’t think it was you.” Sun Kai took off his helmet, and his face was full of bitterness. “If I knew that, I would never have taken this job. Lone Wolf, I can’t defeat you. You’re too strong, and I will undoubtedly lose. But please, listen to me, listen to the bastard who threatened you! It’s true that I bullied you, but I have my responsibilities, my family and my parents. I’m not trying to gain your sympathy but to make a contract.

“Together with the bet money, I owe you 400 gold coins and 10,000 dollars in cash! I’ll pay it off in the next two years. In the next two years, I will pay back all my income on the premise of guaranteeing my basic life every month!

“Please allow me!”

No one expected such a dramatic change! What’s more, nobody ever thought that this man was the successful leader of Brotherhood, Codename Lone Wolf!

No one dared to assure that he would win when fighting against him!

Lin Jie sighed as he looked at Sun Kai and the others.

Ding~

—”Lin Jie has admitted defeat and exited the game!”

Suddenly, the place fell in silence!
