Chapter 61 Impulse
Scorpion covered the part that was hit and looked at Shalan. He could stand up again and fight with Shalan, but Scorpion knew very well that he was definitely not Shalan's opponent. There was no need to continue the fight since the winner had been decided. He was not the kind of fanatical fighter who could not keep a cool head. Since the winner had been decided, Scorpion decided to admit defeat.
Raising his hands to admit defeat to the referee, the scorpion walked off the ring holding his chest without saying anything. Although the punch just now was very heavy, if it was just an ordinary heavy punch, the scorpion would not have admitted defeat. The key was that the slight was transmitted to his body, deepening the damage to his internal organs, making the scorpion realize that his opponent was not as simple as he looked. If he continued to compete, it would only increase the burden and damage to his internal organs, which would affect the subsequent competitions and would not be worth it.
Shalan naturally had no idea what the scorpion was thinking or considering, but judging from the scorpion's reaction just now, the force of that punch had penetrated deeper into its internal organs than she had imagined. It could only be the effect of the vibration force that came with the punch.
Shalan was very satisfied with what he gained from this battle. Not only did he successfully condense the fifth seed of life and light up the fifth vertebra by virtue of the pressure brought by the battle, he also successfully discovered the true use of the "Red Bull Breathing Method". At present, he was not strong enough to fully grasp the power of this vibration. If he could fully grasp the effect of vibration, then both attack and defense would be greatly enhanced, and even the power of swordsmanship could benefit from it.
Amid the cheers and shouts of the audience, Shalan walked down from the ring, took the bathrobe-like coat from Xia Zhuo's hand, put it on, and returned to his lounge.
When Shalan finished taking a shower and was about to change clothes to leave, Xia Zhuo brought Babo to the outside of his lounge. Although the door of the lounge was not closed, Babo did not come in directly, but knocked on the door and waited outside.
Seeing Babo's look, Shalan smiled and said to him, "Mr. Babo, please come in. I wonder what you want to see me about?"
"First of all, this is the appearance fee and bonus for your last two games, Mr. Hei Ting. Please accept it, Mr. Hei Ting."
Taking a gold note handed over by Babo, Shalan looked at the fifteen gold coins on it, nodded with a smile, and put it into her pocket without taking it seriously. Although fifteen gold coins are already a considerable amount of assets for many people, it is nothing to Shalan.
Babo looked at Shalan who didn't care about the gold note at all, and then thought that Shalan had never talked to him about the appearance fee and bonus before. Babo immediately knew that this Hei Ting was probably not a guard of Douluo, but more like a person from a noble or official family. Otherwise, an ordinary guard would never react like this when seeing fifteen gold coins.
With a quick thought, Babo knew that his previous plan might fail. He originally wanted to put some pressure on Shalan if it didn't work, but now it seems that if he really did that, the underground fighting arena would inevitably be affected, and he, the apparent owner of the underground fighting arena, would probably be in big trouble.
With a sincere smile on his face, Babo looked at Shalan and said, "Mr. Hei Ting, are you interested in signing a formal contract with our underground fighting arena?
After signing the contract, you can enjoy various benefits, professional training venues, comfortable apartments, and a fixed monthly salary in addition to appearance fees and bonuses. Mr. Hei Ting, would you consider it?"
After hearing what Babo said, Shalan said without thinking, "No, thank you for your kindness, Mr. Babo. In fact, you should have seen something of it, so I won't waste any more words. I came here just to participate in the fighting competition and experience the thrill of fighting. As for other things, I don't want to get involved. Mr. Babo, you should be able to understand what I mean, right?"
Hearing this, Babo secretly said, "As expected." He still had that sincere smile on his face, and he didn't show any displeasure at being rejected by Shalan. He smiled and nodded and said, "In that case, I won't bother you anymore. Mr. Hei Ting, you can also come over at this time next week. Then I will arrange a match for you as promised."
"Well, I'll trouble you, Mr. Babo."
After saying that, Shallan said goodbye to Babo, nodded to Xia Zhuo, took her backpack, left the underground fighting arena, and returned to the Werman Manor.
Back in the room, Shalan took off her clothes and looked at the purple marks on her arms and body in the floor-length mirror. She said to Sally outside the door, "Sally, find the ointment Uncle Hasid gave me."
After Hasid formally taught Shalan swordsmanship, he gave Shalan some ointment for reducing swelling and relieving pain. It can be used to treat some muscle and skin injuries on the body. It is a very good medicine.
As soon as Sally walked into the room, she immediately saw the purple scars on Shalan's body. She was frightened and wanted to go out to find a doctor, but was called back by Shalan.
"Sally, I don't want anyone to know about this. Just help me apply the medicine."
"But Master Shalan, these injuries on your body..."
"Sally, what did I say before? I said you just need to obey my orders, so this time, just like before, come and help me apply the medicine."
Hearing this, Sally hesitated for a moment, nodded slowly, took out the ointment from the cabinet, and began to carefully apply the ointment to the purple scars on Shalan's body, and rubbed the ointment into the skin and flesh vigorously as Shalan said.
Slowly, Shalan's breathing became heavier, and Sally's face turned red. He reached out and grabbed Sally's wrist. Shalan looked at Sally with a change in his eyes. In his previous life, he was not shy about matters between men and women. In this life, he had been in intensive study and practice. Later, he met Yiwen, and there was nothing substantial between them in terms of men and women.
In addition, this body was in adolescence, and it was at the time of impulse. Shalan almost pressed Sally on the bed, but at the moment when Shalan held Sally's wrist, Yiwen's smile suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. He recalled everything between him and Yiwen before. He exhaled, and Shalan's eyes became clear again. He looked at Sally and said in a hoarse voice: "Sally, find me some food. I can apply the remaining medicine myself."
