Hina and Miyo met up and then returned to their respective ringsides to prepare for the match.

Yihua led Shiraki Cheng and the others to a corner of Momose Miyo's arena to greet her.

"Hey, thanks for helping out tonight!"

"..."

Momose Miyo chuckled twice and retorted, "Iori, you're getting into underground fighting now, even a cop like you. The Metropolitan Police Department is hopeless..."

"It's a side hustle, a side hustle!"

Yi Hua gave a perfunctory reply, then added a reminder, "By the way, tonight's opponent is no ordinary opponent; you need to be careful!"

“Yeah,” Meiyang nodded, clearly not caring, “You guys all came to cheer me on, it really means you don’t trust me at all…”

None of them refuted it.

In fact, after witnessing the horrific state of the foreign assassin, Yi Hua and the others couldn't help but worry about Ji Nai's opponent.

I'd like to remind you, "That guy's punches are really heavy."

Meiyang waved her hand, "Okay—I know!"

Suddenly, Shiraki Cheng, who was standing next to him, spoke up and suggested, "Let's try 'Three Battles Stand'."

"Ok?"

Meiyang was taken aback by what she heard.

The so-called "Sansho-ri" is a basic footwork in karate, which originated from fighting on a boat.

Standing with feet shoulder-width apart, toes slightly turned inward, knees slightly bent, center of gravity lowered, toes gripping the ground, and core engaged, is a standing posture with excellent balance.

Meiyang did indeed practice this stance during training at the Liuzhen Guild Hall.

So these people thought that they couldn't even stand up against "Hongo Hime" and could only rely on the three battles to hold on.

"..."

Momose Miyo frowned and went on stage with a question in her mind.

The referee signaled for the two athletes to come closer to each other, then raised their left hands and brought them down with great force.

"READY—GO!"

Swish!

The match had just begun, and before Meiyang could react, Ji Nai suddenly stepped forward and delivered a powerful punch to Meiyang's chest.

It was clearly visible to the naked eye that Meiyang's chest was dented, and even her sportswear was sunken in.

"?!"

Meiyang couldn't utter a single word; she only felt a tightness in her chest and was about to lose consciousness.

The words of Bai Mucheng echoed in her mind, and she subconsciously steadied herself, adopting a stance ready for battle.

But that's all Meiyang can do.

Ji Nai had already taken a half step back, clenched her fists again, and looked quite surprised.

"Huh? He didn't knock her down with one punch? This stance... is it because I was warned beforehand?"

"Haha! Brother Shiraki's 'technique' is really interesting, so if it were on his side, we would definitely encounter someone 'faster'..."

"Since that's the case, let's just agree to his request—let him join!"

Hina looked at Miyo and threw her second punch of the night.

Boom!

A muffled thud came from Meiyang's chest; several of her ribs were broken. She foamed at the mouth and collapsed to the ground, dazed.

Two punches and he's dead!

Chapter 51 Valkyrie

"Huh?! Wait—wait a minute!?"

"The match is over! A knockout! A knockout!!! Hina ended the match with just two punches!!"

The commentator almost didn't have time to react.

Then came wave after wave of cheers from the audience for Hime.

Clearly, such an "aesthetically pleasing" yet "extremely violent" competition is exactly the kind of underground women's fighting they admire, something that cannot be seen in a formal ring.

Meanwhile, Pegasus Nozomi and others watching from the sidelines were also shocked by what had just happened.

Li Youba stood upright with his hands behind his back, his eyes slightly narrowed. "That woman named Momose Miyo is not someone you can easily defeat. You've really found a formidable opponent."

"...Indeed impressive."

Tenma's pupils contracted, and he murmured, "Although I knew that Hina was different from others, she's actually this strong. It might be hard to find a suitable opponent in the future..."

Li Youba confidently declared, "I don't care—I'm ready to fight anytime!"

Clearly, the match had piqued her interest.

Hope breathed a slight sigh of relief, "Haha, then I'll leave it to you."

Yi Hua, who was standing next to him, added, "Don't worry, I'll help recruit contestants too. There are a lot of dangerous guys in the Metropolitan Police Department's files."

"—And then!"

Yi Hua held a few "prize tickets" between his fingers and waved them in front of everyone. "We've really reaped a lot from this competition!"

Seeing that Bai Mucheng was tilting his head to observe, Yi Hua simply explained it to him.

"Brother Bai Mu, you've never played pachinko before, have you? The principle is the same."

“We prepared a batch of ‘lottery tickets’ in advance, with denominations of 1,000, 5,000, and 10,000 yuan. We just came up with some random names, but let’s call them ‘V-currency’ for now.”

"We will let viewers buy V-currency and use it to place bets."

"Since they are just lottery tickets, these V-currencies have no value—therefore they are not considered cash gambling."

"However, we will also contact 'second-hand dealers' so that viewers can sell their V-currency as collectibles and get cash back."

Yi Hua put his arm around Bai Mucheng's shoulder and said with a sly smile, "With such a back and forth, it has transformed from an illegal black industry into an ambiguous underground gray industry."

"Besides, I've already made arrangements with the Metropolitan Police Department, so the cops won't bother us!"

He himself is a policeman, yet he refers to the police as "cops"—only this "Iori Kazuka" could do such a thing.

"In short, tonight was a great success!"

Hana clapped her hands and looked around, saying, "Strange, where's Himeko? Hasn't she left the stage yet?"

"..."

Everyone turned to look and found that Hina Hongo was still on the stage, and had just taken the commentator's microphone.

What is she going to do?

"...Hello! Hello?"

Ji Nai did a quick sound check, then held the microphone and made a victory sign with her other hand.

"Yay—the revolution is a great success!"

"I'm Hina Hongo. Did the audience enjoy the show?"

These words reignited the audience's emotions, and the atmosphere became lively once again.

Upon seeing this, Hope and the others were puzzled, wondering what kind of impromptu performance Ji Nai was going to put on.

Who knew what would happen next—

Suddenly, Ji Nai pulled a large bundle of cash out of her bag, held it high in her hand, and showed it to the audience.

Five million yuan—that's the money I saved.

"Whoever can beat me will get five million yuan. Everyone is welcome to take on the challenge~☆!"

The entire room fell silent for a moment, then erupted into agitation.

"Haha, she really dares to say that!"

"This new group has a good storyline, and the contestants are talented enough. It's going to be interesting to watch!"

"A newcomer? Who is she?"

"I can't wait!"

"..."

For a moment, the entire venue was filled with noise, the atmosphere was as hot as boiling water, and it even drowned out the sound of the microphone.

Tianma felt a chill run down his spine. "What is that idiot doing?!"

Yi Hua also sighed, "Ugh, I hope they don't cause any trouble..."

Hana was the only one who was more optimistic. She analyzed seriously, "This might not be so bad? After all, even large groups in the underground fighting world might not be able to offer an appearance fee of five million."

"If a small group like ours could have such a high bonus, it would surely attract a lot of talented people, wouldn't it?"

"For example--"

Hana stepped aside to show everyone Li Youba, whose eyes were shining. "Little Youba looks so excited!"

Li Youba couldn't suppress a smile and said, "Of course, after all, I really need 'money'..."

This unexpected five million yuan bonus was a pleasant surprise for Li Youba, who couldn't help but feel that he had come to the right place.

"Although it is just a newly established small group, it does have the potential to grow bigger and stronger."

As a veteran in the industry, Li Youba was generous with his praise.

"You have all the conditions to make big money."

"Hana is a 'rule-abiding yakuza,' Ichika is a 'rule-breaking yakuza,' and I hope you have a 'mind that can study rules.'"
