This caused a huge stir, and everyone rushed to place bets, afraid of missing out on Zhou Yuan's opponent's high odds.

“Don’t worry, everyone,” Scott reassured. “This young man’s competition hasn’t even started yet. I’ll announce it later today. Until then, you can come and watch the competition between the battery salesman and Sampy.”

After he finished speaking, he led the crowd into the club.

Ignoring the intrusive gazes of the others, Zhou Yuan waited outside for a few minutes, and then went inside when he felt it was about time.

As soon as he stepped into the club, a wave of noise hit him. Zhou Yuan's gaze involuntarily turned to the iron cage in the center of the arena, where the battle had already ended.

"Let's congratulate the battery salesman on his victory!" Scott shouted, briefly silencing the noise in the club, but quickly drowned out by an even louder uproar.

"Sangpi! Useless!" someone yelled in despair. "I thought you were just hiding your weaknesses on defense! Turns out you're really no good?"

Some people laughed happily, "Great, great, we have to eat it! Haha!"

Zhou Yuan saw Scott waving at him, and after weaving through the crowded and restless crowd, he followed him through an iron gate.

As soon as we entered, a brown-haired man wearing glasses and overalls spoke up:

"Scott, is this the rising star of the boxing world next to you? He looks so imposing and powerful, his presence..."

“Stop messing around, Dr. Digger, I haven’t signed him yet,” Scott interrupted impatiently. “Bring out your machine and have it practiced with him. If it performs well, I’ll sign him.”

"Oh, I see," Dr. Digger glanced at Zhou Yuan's physique, his attitude clearly changing, and said to Zhou Yuan, "What kind of machine do you want for sparring? I have modified earth-drilling machines, and also modified war dog mechs..."

Zhou Yuan waved his hand to interrupt: "Bring your most powerful machine."

"Are you sure?" Dr. Digger explained, "I got that from Boss Schwarz; it's a machine that has actually killed people!"

"determine."

“You said it yourself,” Dr. Digger’s face lit up with joy. He walked into a hidden door and came back in a moment later with a handle in his hand. “Let me introduce you. This is Big Bear.”

As he spoke, he gently cranked the lever, and with the ground shaking, a huge object squeezed in through the hidden door.

The object was barely recognizable as human, with a foot-thick iron armor welded to its abdomen, and its hands and feet were also covered in iron armor, resembling a large-bellied iron general. Standing there, it was almost twice the height of Zhou Yuan, and its shadow completely covered Zhou Yuan, creating a strong sense of oppression.

It's the Grizzly Mech that can sit on and kill an entire squad of people in the game!

But it looks different from the one in the game. Not only is it covered in traces of welding and repairs, but it also creaks when it moves, as if it might break down at any moment.

Click.

The grizzly bear mech named Big Bear suddenly stopped moving. Dr. Digger looked at it with a puzzled expression for a few moments, then took out a bottle of liquid and poured it into the bearing of Big Bear's thigh, which allowed it to resume movement.

“Good name,” Zhou Yuan looked up and carefully observed Xiong Da, somewhat puzzled. “Are you sure you bought this from Swallow?”

"It's just been idle for a long time and has rusted," Dr. Digger waved his hand, controlling Big Bear to walk in front of Zhou Yuan. "Come on, since you insist on fighting it, I will grant your wish."

"Speaking of which, what are the rules?" Dr. Digger turned to Scott and asked, "It's not the rules of the ring, is it?"

Scott thought for two seconds, then said to Zhou Yuan:

"Hold on for one minute and don't leave the room."

In Scott's view, if Zhou Yuan could withstand Xiong Da's attacks for even a minute in this confined space, it would prove that he could defeat some mediocre boxers with his agility, enough to earn him some money from careless gamblers. As long as he could make money, that would be fine.

If you can't even last a minute... well, that's another story.

Zhou Yuan glanced at it a few times, then suddenly turned to Scott and asked:

"Does leaving this room mean you lose?"

“Of course,” Scott added, seemingly seeing through Zhou Yuan’s thoughts, “it doesn’t count if it rushes out on its own.”

"understood."

Scott walked to a corner, and after the other two had finished preparing, he announced:

"start."

As soon as he finished speaking, Dr. Digger controlled Big Bear, and his fist, covered with sturdy arm armor, slammed straight at Zhou Yuan.

Zhou Yuan didn't dodge; he simply got into a fighting stance and used his head to take the punch from the other man.

"Tsk..." Scott narrowed his eyes, thinking to himself, "Is this guy trying to scam insurance? Good thing I was smart enough not to sign him."

Dr. Digger tilted his head and looked past Xiong Da to see Zhou Yuan standing still. He was immediately shocked.

"Are you fucking scared out of your wits!" Dr. Digger quickly controlled Big Bear's arm to slow down.

But it was too late. Before the electrical signal could be transmitted to Xiong Da, its arm struck Zhou Yuan hard in the face.

Boom!

After a muffled thud, the expected scene did not occur. Dr. Digger opened his eyes and found that Zhou Yuan was still standing in the same spot without moving at all. The huge fist was right next to Zhou Yuan's face, and he easily caught it.

Scott, who was standing nearby, saw this scene and his eyes lit up with excitement.

Zhou Yuan caught Dr. Digger's bear-like attack with his bare body—no, with his face. What does that mean? It means he can easily block 99% of a boxer's attacks!

Regardless of strength, you only need to defend in the early stages and wait for the opponent's stamina to be exhausted, then you can easily win!

"Yoshi." Scott grinned wickedly, as if he could already see the credits gushing out of Zhou Yuan's body.

Then, he saw Zhou Yuan raise his hand and gently press it on Xiong Da's breastplate.

"Step aside."

Dr. Digger tilted his head, looking at Zhou Yuan who spoke calmly in front of him, and suddenly felt a stinging sensation all over his body.

It felt like being targeted by a missile while scavenging for scraps near the Swallows' territory!

He instinctively obeyed and took a step away from Xiong Da.

The next moment, Zhou Yuan playfully pushed forward, and Xiong Da was immediately hit as if by a cannon. His huge body flew out on the spot, crashed through the wall with a loud bang, and flew into the deserted back alley.

"No!" Dr. Digger's eyes widened, and after a moment of astonishment, he screamed and stumbled out of the alley, "My bear!!"

Zhou Yuan stopped and glanced at the fallen Xiong Da. It was badly injured, but it seemed to be under control.

"Shouldn't this count as a win for me?" Zhou Yuan looked at Scott.

"We won! We won!" Scott's eyes shone with an almost tangible light as he scrutinized Zhou Yuan from head to toe, as if examining a rough gem.

"Hey, Dr. Digger, stop messing around with your big bear, the next match is about to start, go and host it!" Scott said, "I need to talk to this guy about something."

Dr. Digger guided Xiong Da step by step into the secret door, and after a moment he came out and thanked Zhou Yuan before leaving.

Both of them could see that Zhou Yuan was holding back; if he had used more force, Xiong Da would probably have been crushed on the spot.

After Dr. Digger left, Scott, with a smile on his face, waved to Zhou Yuan:

"Hey bro, aren't you going to be a boxer? Let's talk about signing a contract."

"Look, we have two options now. One is to take a cut, for each game you play..."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Yuan interrupted him:

"I want half."

"half?"

“Yes, it’s my match. No matter how much you earn, I want half of it,” Zhou Yuan said. “Whether it’s money you win from participating in the betting or a cut you take, I want half of it.”

Scott pondered, "This young man's appetite is a bit too big."

"Your strength is indeed formidable, but after one or two fights, everyone will notice that your odds will be extremely low afterward... Unless, you're planning to throw a fight?"

At this point, Scott laughed; he was all too familiar with this matter.

"Low odds? That's easy, just play one match." Zhou Yuan smiled and pointed to the poster on the wall. "Next match, I'll play Luca."

"Is the odds high enough for a skinny, inexperienced newcomer to the game to face off against a champion who has won more than twenty consecutive titles?"
