I will traverse countless worlds and become a god entirely on my own!

The next KOF tournament will be hosted by ourselves, and it will still start as a team competition.

"You're hosting it?"

Mai Shiranui paused for a moment, then instinctively asked, "Do you have money?"

"Uh"

That's a very real problem!

Bai Ye was completely numb; it seemed he really didn't have any money!

Organizing a KOF fighting tournament definitely requires money; after all, if there's no money, who will participate?

There should be some kind of bonus, right?

“I can sponsor it.”

Chizuru, what are you doing?!

Mai Shiranui is numb.

It seems like my boyfriend is about to be kept by someone!

"Let's talk about sponsorship later. I should have the money by then."

Bai Ye shook his head and directly rejected Kagura Chizuru's suggestion.

Although the Kagura family is wealthy, I can't just live off them. What a joke! I'm a fighter, a fighter with integrity. How could I possibly accept sponsorship from someone else?!

Besides, this is something I want to organize myself. Why would I let others pay for it when I'm organizing it myself?

"Yes, Chizuru, don't worry, the Shiranui Dojo has the funds to host the KOF tournament!"

Even so, Mai Shiranui still felt somewhat unsure of herself.

After all, how could she not know whether Shiranui Dojo had the money to support the KOF tournament?

"alright."

Kagura Chizuru nodded but didn't say much. She wasn't going to rush to give Byakuya money; if he didn't want it, why should she force it into his hands?

However, if Bai Ye really can't raise the money later, she will still help him. At least she considers herself and Bai Ye to be friends, and isn't that what friends should do?

In this fighting competition, Bai Ye felt that none of them had reached their strongest point yet; they would probably have to wait until '97.

Byakuya is waiting for Iori Yagami and Leona to unleash their mad blood.

"Are you going to hold a KOF tournament later?!"

Kyo Kusanagi was also somewhat unhappy with the results of this KOF tournament.

I can't believe I lost so easily.

"That's right. The battles will be fought in teams from now on, and everyone will be given enough rest time. We will also try to let each team fight once in the future, which will be better than this one."

Byakuya can't guarantee that everyone will be matched up, but he can only try his best to arrange it, especially since Kagura Chizuru's arrangements this time were too rushed.

Hearing Bai Ye's words, Kagura Chizuru also looked a little embarrassed, as she hadn't wanted to hold the event in the first place.

"Okay, see you in a year!"

Kyo Kusanagi accepted it. He would definitely defeat Byakuya next time. He did nothing for the next year but focused on developing the power within his body.

He felt that his potential had not yet been fully developed, and that this failure did not mean he would fail again.

"The next KOF tournament?"

Iori Yagami, who was about to leave, quickened his pace after hearing Byakuya's words.

Many people are looking forward to Bai Ye changing the format of the next competition.

This competition format itself completely disrupted the original fighting matches.

They came here to compete against various fighters, not to fight the strongest fighter in the ring.

"Sorry, it seems I really underestimated this fighting competition."

Chizuru Kagura was somewhat troubled, even though she had only come here to find Iori Yagami and Kyo Kusanagi.

If I had known it would be like this, I would have just set it up as a points system.

Whoever gets the most points at the end wins.

"gone."

Bai Ye shook his head, glanced at the surrounding situation, and saw that many fighters had already decided to leave.

Although the KOF96 event organized by Chizuru Kagura was somewhat unsuccessful, it will definitely attract attention from all sectors of society, so there's no need to worry too much about sponsorship in the future.

But after that, I'll have to wait for the giant serpent to appear!

"Bai Ye, do we really have that much money to host the KOF tournament?"

On the way back, Mai Shiranui looked at Byakuya with unease, while taking out her bankbook from somewhere to compare the money. She finally realized that it was not enough to cover the cost of the next KOF tournament.

This time, Bai Ye won first place, but the first place winner doesn't get all the prize money; it has to be shared among the top five, and there are three other people in this team.

In addition, this involves not only the cost of the team, but also venue fees and various upfront investments, all of which require money!

And this is money for raising children in the future!

Mai Shiranui suddenly felt that it would be better to let Byakuya seduce Chizuru Kagura back, so that someone would take care of them!

Of course, this is just a thought; Mai Shiranui would never actually do that.

"Xiao Wu, money is easy to come by, so there's no need to worry too much about hosting a KOF tournament!"

Bai Ye raised his hand and touched the back of Mai Shiranui's head.

He felt that Mai Shiranui was overthinking things; she was clearly overthinking this matter.

"Okay, so can we get married then?"

"."

Sure enough, this topic couldn't be avoided.

Although marriage is just another piece of paper, Bai Ye always felt that it wasn't the right time.

Why do I have this feeling that I'm also delaying my own marriage?

"Xiao Wu, can we wait until after KOF '97?"

"why?"

Mai Shiranui glared at Bai Ye, annoyed. They had agreed to get married after KOF96, so why did they have to wait until KOF97?

"Well, I feel like things got better after KOF97. I can promise we'll get married after this is resolved, okay?"

"Okay, you said it!"

Although Mai Shiranui wanted to act now, she also knew very well that she couldn't force Byakuya to make a decision at this time.

Since he said he would wait until then, then let's talk about it then.

"By the way, didn't you promise Chizuru you'd have a match? Why don't you guys go to the match early tonight, and then we can go back to the Shiranui Dojo together?"

Mai Shiranui fidgeted with the hem of her clothes. She wanted to go home early today and stay at the Shiranui Dojo for a while.

Lately, she doesn't want to go down the mountain anymore.

"Shall we compete today?"

It seems like Mai Shiranui is even more eager to get into the competition than Chizuru Kagura.

The two of them had actually competed many times on the motorcycle.

However, Byakuya always won, which made Kagura Chizuru somewhat unconvinced. She had won the championship before, but she was always just a little bit behind Byakuya.

"Hmm, shall we ask Chizuru?"

Mai Shiranui nodded repeatedly.

"it is good."

After Bai Ye agreed, he was about to ask when Andy's voice came from behind him: "Senior Brother Bai Ye, Senior Sister Wu is planning to leave for a while. Please tell Master for me!"

Turning around, I saw Terry and Joe standing next to Andy, clearly indicating that Andy was planning to leave with the two of them.

"Hey, we didn't fight you this time, but we're looking forward to fighting you in KOF '97. We'll definitely study your abilities next time!"

Terry waved his hand. He was really looking forward to fighting White Night in KOF '97. He would definitely study White Night carefully next time!

Let's have a drink sometime!

Dong Zhang, looking rather smug, touched his hair and nodded.

Since he's Andy's senior, he can be considered their friend.

"can."

Bai Ye waved his hand, then looked at Kagura Chizuru in the distance and asked, "Want to have a motorcycle race?"

"I'll do it anytime!"

Chizuru Kagura agreed.

"Bai Ye is gone. Contact me by phone if you need anything."

Jotaro waved and left the venue.

"I won't be so easily defeated by you next year!"

Athena Asamiya walked up to Byakuya, greeted him energetically, and then left.

The three members of the Ikari Warriors made a mental note of Byakuya and prepared to go back and investigate his background thoroughly.

"Xiao Wu, your boyfriend just hit me and it hurt so much! You have to teach him a lesson when you get home!"

Yuri Sakazaki stuck out her tongue, winked at Mai Shiranui, and then ran towards Ryo Sakazaki. Following her retreating figure, Ryo and Robert nodded and waved goodbye.

However, Mai Shiranui was also a little upset, wondering what it meant to teach Byakuya a lesson.

Of course she knew what Yuri Sakazaki was implying, but she was no match for him at all!

"Cultivate! The amount of cultivation you do after returning must be three times the previous amount!"

Jin was furious today. He lost, and he lost so badly. When he got back, not only Jin, but Zhang Juhan and Cai Baoqi were also furious.
