I teach judo in Tokyo.

A little later, he released his infatuated classmate.

I straightened my clothes a little, turned around, opened the door, and got out of the car.

Beneath your feet lies a long red carpet leading to the high-tech arena.

Wearing a neat, all-black tracksuit, Sousuke walked step by step onto the ring, facing the gazes of countless spectators.

Next, a holographic projection of his image and basic information appeared above the arena.

......

[Sousuke Atobe]

【Occupation: White Night Dojo - Dojo Master】

[Height 186cm, Weight 85kg]

[Main competitions participated in: Deathmatch 4 wins, 0 losses, 4 KOs]

A virtual yet clear 3D projection floated above Sosuke's head, and as the projection appeared, energetic music quickly filled the venue.

The four pillars of the arena even simultaneously spewed out large bursts of flame, instantly igniting the atmosphere.

The audience was immediately captivated by the atmosphere created by the organizers and instinctively began to cheer.

As they cheered, they asked each other who Atobe Sousuke was, how he could become the champion of this popular arena.

The scene was somewhat comical for a moment.

"I know that guy!"

"It's this year's Jade Dragon Flag and Golden Eagle Flag, as well as the national championship!"

"Yes, yes, that legendary strongest high school student."

"Well, he's a superhuman! No wonder!"

......

Soon, some viewers recognized Atobe Sousuke's identity.

After all, most of the people who can squeeze into the venue to watch the competition up close are those who are most interested in fighting, and naturally there are also those who follow the high school fighting scene.

Just as the audience was wondering what would happen next, a passionate voice came from the speakers.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen!"

"I am the host for tonight's round seven!"

"Now, I will explain the rules of the upcoming arena battle."

"First of all, tonight there will be three battles to defend the title, and the challengers will be the three strongest fighters who were determined today in arena number seven!"

With the emergence of the phrase "the three strongest".

The three-dimensional projection above the arena rapidly changed, from Sosuke's information alone to the information of three powerful individuals.

【Cape Zayu】

[Occupation: Fighter]

[Height 178cm, Weight 82kg]

[Main competitions participated in: Deathmatch (Honorary Deathmatch) 18 wins, 5 losses, 13 KOs]

------

【Maswan】

[Occupation: Fighter]

[Height 191cm, Weight 98kg]

[Main competitions participated in: Deathmatch (Honorary Deathmatch) 22 wins, 7 losses, 16 KOs]

------

Adam Dudley

[Occupation: Ice hockey player & martial arts fighter]

[Height 192cm, Weight 117kg]

[Main competitions participated in: Deathmatch (Honorary Deathmatch) 31 wins, 4 losses, 28 KOs]

From the projected half-body images, it can be seen that tonight's three challengers are a lean Japanese man and two tall, strong white men.

Everyone had fierce eyes and terrifying expressions; they were clearly very capable fighters.

On the stage, Atobe Sousuke was handsome, clean-cut, and had a faint smile on his lips.

He looks like a well-mannered student who is still in school.

The three "challengers" projected on the screen all looked several times more imposing than Atobe Sousuke, who was standing quietly on the stage.

The audience couldn't help but start discussing it.

The host's voice did not stop because of the audience's reaction.

He paused deliberately for a moment, and after everyone had digested the information about the challenger, he shouted passionately again.

"Now that the champion of Arena Number Seven and the three challengers have all arrived, let's not delay and begin the first arena battle immediately!"

"Please welcome Sakizaki to the stage!"

At the host's invitation, a man wearing fighting shorts and shirtless walked briskly towards the ring from the other side of the red carpet.

Then, as he approached the ring, he jumped from the spot and easily cleared the fence, which was nearly two meters above the ground, and landed inside the ring.

"Kid, you're still a baby and you dare to come to this kind of competition to be the champion? What kind of joke is the Luca Group making?" As soon as he stepped onto the stage, Misaki Zayu sneered and mocked Sousuke, who was smiling and silent opposite him.

Faced with the other party's mockery, Sosuke just smiled and shrugged: "I don't know either. Maybe we're short-handed, so we asked me to fill in temporarily."

It's no wonder he was ridiculed, given how short his career has been—only two or three months in total.

This early debut time is nothing compared to the experience of many seasoned cultivators who have been training for years, often starting in their twenties and having gone through numerous battles in the Death Frenzy Showdown.

That's just too immature.

Not only does he look young, but his record is also only four battles—although he won all four.

“You should admit defeat. I’m in a hurry. My real opponent tonight is that Adam,” Zayusaki said calmly.

Sosuke stood calmly and smiled gently, "Let's give it a try. After all, I've been asked to do this, and it would be too embarrassing to admit defeat so easily."

"Then don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Sakizaki adopted a boxing stance.

At the same time, as if seeing the two players finish their pre-match trash talk, the host's voice immediately came through the speakers.

"Alright—it seems our champion, Sakizaki, looks down on his defending champion, Sousuke Atobe!"

"Then let them settle this with a duel!"

"To find out who will ultimately emerge victorious, viewers both live and online can use Luca Group's newly launched app, 'KOF,' to cast 'Victory Points' to support the player they believe has the best chance of winning. If your chosen player wins, you'll share the 'Victory Points' of the losing team's fans with other like-minded supporters!"

As the host spoke, countless viewers at the venue and online immediately took out their phones, opened the "KOF" app, and sure enough, found the newly opened "Support" interface.

Each person's account also has 100 free "winning points".

Then, viewers also discovered that these "winning points" could be purchased by topping up the app, and the winning points themselves could be redeemed for various "prizes" in the app's store.

This is pure gambling!

Indeed, competitive sports are bound to be accompanied by the booming of the betting industry.

After the host finished explaining the betting mechanism, a large "30S" was projected above the arena and began to jump continuously.

This is a countdown for viewers to "place their bets".

On either side of the countdown are the names and busts of Atobe Sousuke and Zayu Misaki.

Then, with the "support" of online and offline audiences, a bar chart representing the total number of "winning points" began to rise rapidly next to the projection of the two people's half-body portraits.

“22......21......13......12......3......2......1......”

"Support over! The match begins!!!"

As the countdown reached zero and the betting period ended, the host immediately announced the start of the competition.

"boom--"

The audience immediately erupted in cheers!

"Die!"

Zayu Misaki's figure shot out, rushing quickly in front of Atobe Sousuke, his heavy right fist poised to strike!

"Bang!!!"

A terrifying explosion.

As Sousuke charged towards him, Misaki Zayu flew backward at an even faster speed than he had charged forward, crashing heavily into the ropes surrounding the arena!

A spray of blood gushed from his mouth.

Then, he suddenly knelt down—fell to his knees!

The cheers from the entire stadium suddenly stopped.

Sosuke withdrew his fist, tilted his head, and smiled.

"next."

......

As Sousuke retracted his fist, the three-dimensional projections of the two people above the arena were still flickering.

The "victory points" show that the support for Satsumi has about one-third more points than Sousuke.

The next second, a bright red "X" appeared on the projection of Cape Zayu, and the projection flickered for a while before disappearing completely.

Sold out instantly!

After being mocked by Misaki Zayu for a long time, Atobe Sousuke remained calm.

He knocked out his opponent with just one punch.

The shocked audience remained frozen for less than half a second before erupting into a deafening murmur.

Below the ring, Yotsuba Saki jumped up and down excitedly: "I knew Sousuke-kun was the best!"

She turned to the old butler and said, "Grandpa Sebastian, I just bet 50,000 points on Sosuke and won a lot!"

The old butler stood behind her, casually brushing aside any strangers who approached her, leaving his young mistress ample room to move around.

Whether you approached intentionally or unintentionally, you would inexplicably find yourself moved aside.

Then, under the old butler's indifferent gaze, he broke out in a cold sweat and dared not approach any further.

Seeing the young lady's happy smile, the old butler couldn't help but smile as well: "Don't worry, young lady, Mr. Atobe's strength is vastly different now. I think even winning the championship isn't impossible..."

As the two were chatting, they heard a commotion behind them, and soon a large group of beautiful women of all ages came to their side.

Leading the way was none other than Yae Meixuan, who, despite her stunning beauty, exuded the aura of a powerful, yakuza boss.

Furthermore, with her openly wielding a samurai sword, she exuded maximum intimidation and easily led Sousuke's group of disciples to the front.

"That kid Atobe... um? He's already won the first match?" Yae Meixuan came to Yotsuba Saki's side, just about to ask about the situation, when she saw Sousuke's opponent being carried off the platform by the medical team, and she couldn't help but stare blankly at Yotsuba Saki beside her.

"Saki, this kid won so fast? What kind of useless piece of trash was his opponent? Couldn't he even hold on for one more minute so I could watch the show?"

Behind her, all the women of the White Night Dojo followed. The nine beauties gathered together, instantly turning this area into a captivating sight.

Seeing this, some men couldn't help but eagerly move closer, but they stopped in their tracks under the cold gazes and terrifying aura of Mei Xuan, Su Zi, Ying, and the old butler.

When Yotsuba Saki heard Mei Xuan's question, she nodded shyly: "That person is indeed far inferior to Sosuke-kun."

As they were talking, Sousuke's next opponent appeared.

This time, the opponent is 1.9 meters tall and has a strong build. He looks like he can fight much better than the previous Zayusaki.

However, unlike Zayu Misaki's contempt, he had just witnessed Zayu Misaki being instantly killed by a single punch from the audience.

From this, it is easy to conclude that Atobe Sousuke's power is extremely terrifying.

Believing he couldn't do that, he adopted a serious, guerrilla-like stance as soon as he stepped onto the stage, intending to temporarily avoid the limelight.
