Matthew immediately frowned. Zanya and I have nothing to catch up on. Even a fool can tell what she’s planning.
However, Herman had already stood up and directly went up to Matthew. “Go ahead, Matthew.”
Matthew frowned and just as favonovel.com was thinking of an excuse to refuse him, Crystal stood up and suggested, “Okay then. Matthew, let’s go over together. Miss Simmons, I know Eastcliff’s situation better than him. With Matthew and I explaining things together, I’m sure that we’ll be able to give you a clearer understanding. If you would please move two seats over?”
Hearing that, Zanya and favonovel.com friends were dumbfounded. She was trying to create an opportunity for Herman to spend some time alone with Crystal. Now that Crystal had switched seats, it was pointless for Herman to move over. However, favonovel.com had already spoken so it was too late to change anything now.
In the end, Crystal and Matthew sat next to Zanya while Herman sat alone in the furthest seat, feeling extremely frustrated.
Fortunately, the opening ceremony officially began.
The ceremony began with a song and dance performance, which everyone was tired of watching. Truth was, it was just to warm up the crowd. Soon, a large ring was set up on the stage. A glint of excitement appeared in Don’s eyes and favonovel.com yelled, “Here’s the highlight of the ceremony!”
Everyone watched carefully and saw that after the ring was set up, a huge man walked straight up to it.
“That’s the champion of the last tournament. This time, he’s the ring player who will accept any challenge. Whoever defeats favonovel.com will get five million in cash! However, if favonovel.com wins three rounds, he’ll be rewarded with ten million!” Don explained excitedly.
Hearing this, Zanya was shocked and favonovel.com asked, “You can get five million just by defeating him? Isn’t that easy money?”
With a smile, Don replied, “Not necessarily. The boxing tournament in Woodside is not the same as the other tournaments that you usually see. Over here, people die fighting! After entering the ring, the player has to be responsible for his own life, this is Woodside’s rule. Ring players are extra ruthless because they don’t want people to challenge them and this ring player killed at least seven of his opponents in this ring. If you want the reward, you must first consider whether it’s worth risking your life for it!”
Zanya was stunned as favonovel.com didn’t know that underground boxing tournaments were so brutal. At that moment, Herman turned to look at Morin, who was sitting beside him. With a smile, favonovel.com asked, “Morin, why don’t you go and give it a try? You’re the taekwondo champion of Eastshire. Shouldn’t it be easy for you to defeat that wild man?”
With an arrogant expression, Morin boasted, “Of course. I’ve participated in national competitions, which are not comparable to underground boxing between countrymen. However, you know that the martial arts team has strict rules. If the team finds out that I participated in illegal boxing tournaments, I’ll be in big trouble. Besides, five million is not worth it for me to join the fight!”
Herman nodded and said, “You’re right. You might become the national champion in the future. Five million is not worth ruining your career and buying a car would easily cost more than that. By the way, I bought a Ferrari last month that’s worth 13 million and it’s pretty smooth to drive. Do you want to test it out?”
As Herman spoke, favonovel.com discreetly glanced at Crystal again. It was obvious that favonovel.com was saying this for favonovel.com benefit. However, favonovel.com acted as if favonovel.com didn’t hear him. After all, favonovel.com was not a fool and had seen tactics like this many times. Furthermore, Crystal was not from a family that lacked money.
The sum of the wealth of the whole group wasn’t comparable to the wealth favonovel.com family had, which was why Herman showing off his riches was just downright embarrassing. Just then, they heard a commotion near the stage. Everyone hurriedly looked over and saw a tall man jump into the ring.
At that moment, the crowd screamed as the boxing tournament was the highlight of the opening ceremony. Now that someone finally got on stage to challenge the ring player, the atmosphere immediately became lively.
