I am the king of fighting!

Chapter 89 The Taste of Victory

There's nothing much to talk about in the match between Yuan and Iger.

Simple, easy and carefree, the huge gap between the two sides made this match the most boring one in the Street Fighter tournament.

Lin Xi and Vanessa didn't know how to review the game. The audience entered, the host entered, the contestants entered, the host spent a lot of time introducing the contestants, the game started, and the game ended.

Eagle's two short sticks flew up in the air, and then he was broken through by a palm strike and sent flying. He rolled his eyes before he even landed on the ground. The whole fight was not even as long as the host's BB.

After a brief silence, the cheers continued, but there were also many complaints about the battle, such as why they didn't just kill the weakling Iger...

Overall, it's quite harmonious.

The fighters certainly didn’t think that Eagle was weak. The strength he showed when competing for the invitation was already very strong. The fact that he was defeated so easily only showed that his opponent was too strong.

Another day passed, and it was finally Lin Xi's turn to go on stage.

"We must win!!!" Arton raised his hands high and roared loudly while standing in the middle of the field.

After hearing waves of noise, he looked at Lin Xi who was gradually approaching and made a throat-cutting gesture with his hand.

"Player Atton once..." The host was still introducing the currently public information of both players. Due to the minor friction between the two players over the fight for the invitation letter, this match was very interesting. In the audience, fans of both sides were already cursing at each other.

"Ready——"

"GO!"

After the battle started, Atton could not wait to rush up to suppress the enemy. Having learned the lesson from the last time when he was attacked, he was almost concentrating on waiting for the battle to start.

"Peng!"

Lin Xi did not fight back, but calmly defended against the entire series of moves. At this point in time, he no longer needed to take risks to attack. The huge increase in his physical strength and energy already allowed him to look down on his opponent.

In the dull blow, Atun gradually realized that something was wrong. In just over a month, the opponent seemed to have undergone earth-shaking changes. Such a relaxed state...

"Hah!" He roared, jumped into the air, and stepped down with the help of gravity.

Lin Xi just jumped up at this time, grabbed him in the air, and threw him to the ground.

"Boom!"

Atun got up in a panic, his breathing rhythm was a little disordered, some of the capillaries in his lungs were shattered, and the sweet and fishy taste of blood came up in his mouth.

[No matter what, as a strong person, you must have a heart that is determined to win! ]

Sure to win.

He gritted his teeth and attacked again. No matter what, he didn't want to lose and didn't want to be a loser.

Just as Master Victor Sagat won all the way, defeated the previous Muay Thai King Nukan with the weak, and won the title of Muay Thai King, he must...

Win.

'Do you want to win as much as I do?'

Lin Xi defended against all attacks with ease, and occasionally took advantage of slight flaws to deal heavy blows to the opponent, but in his heart he had already seen the opponent's strong will.

Fighting style sometimes determines everything. When he was young, he hung out on the streets and was used to chopping people with a knife, so he was also infected with the taste of using any means necessary. With the "teaching" of Yamazaki Ryuji, he rushed towards the assassination boxing. After arriving in Thailand, he gradually paid attention to the basics, respected his opponents, and after realizing the principle of winning with the right and the unexpected, he rarely used insidious moves in fighting.

Atun has a similar winning mentality as him, but he is unwilling to use any tricks no matter what. He is very straightforward and has an upright style. Even when facing a strong enemy, he just grits his teeth and rushes forward again and again...

Is it rigid? Is it stupid?
But this is Atton, a decent fighter chasing victory.

"Bang!" Lin Xi seized the opportunity and knocked him to the ground with one punch. The serious injuries on his body made Atun tremble and support his body with his arms and knees, but he couldn't charge again like before.

The audience seats and commentary booths were all silent. This is also the beauty of fighting, giving everything and risking one's life for victory.

'You've become stronger.'

'I became stronger.'

Lin Xi walked up to Atton and looked at his opponent with a bruised face and uncontrollable saliva. He didn't care what kind of story the other party had or what kind of persistence he had. For an opponent who showed such a will, admitting defeat would be the greatest humiliation.

This is also the reason why he was still brooding over the fact that Huailong deliberately lost to him in the previous battle and wanted to find an opportunity to avenge himself.

"Snapped!"

With a kick, Atun flew several meters. After landing, his consciousness began to blur and all the sounds in his ears became intermittent.

Must win...

"winner--"

"Lin Xi!"

After the host made the announcement loudly, fans on both sides cheered and applauded the winner wholeheartedly.

Lin Xi straightened his body and enjoyed the treatment that a winner deserved. He was also a human being and would naturally feel happy about the recognition from his peers. On the way to chasing victory, the cheers from the audience were the best embellishment.

In the audience, Vanessa shouted his name loudly with her little face flushed.

Yuan, who was originally sitting in the front row of the contestant viewing area, had already left, leaving only Li Zheng smiling and greeting him. Long seemed to be thinking about something, while Ken laughed and gave a thumbs up...

This is--

victory!
-
Lost.

Atun opened his eyes and was lying on a hospital bed, accepting his failure calmly.

I really didn’t work hard enough… This is how he summed up his failure. When the enemy grows faster than himself, he can only think this way.

Both running the dojo and cooperating with the International Fighting Fans Association seemed to consume too much of his energy.

Failure is not terrible, I just want to win again next time.

Atton looked at the empty ward. Even though he had never expected his master to come to see him, he still felt a little disappointed.

"Who?!" His face darkened and he spoke to the person who was peeping at him at the door.

"Squeak~" The door opened, and a man in a white coat and a mask walked in, saying in a vague voice: "Mr. Atun, as long as you join us, you will be able to..."

"Get out!" Atun shouted, "You've got the wrong guy!" Of course he could guess the other party's origin... Ying Luo, the evil organization that has almost controlled the whole of Thailand.

He has no intention of saving the country, but that doesn't mean he will help the evil.

"This is the latest No. 3 injection. Injuries like yours can be cured with just one injection." Ying Luo's lackey said indifferently and threw a injection on the table.

"We have the world's leading genetic technology. As long as you join us, with our help, you will be able to defeat Lin Xi very quickly..."

He said this while leaving the ward.

Atton looked at the No. 3 injection that was within his reach and remained silent for a long time.
