Starting from the pharmacy, he grew into a martial saint among men.

"Shi Potian is critically injured and on the verge of death, yet the Dawei Escort Agency dares to take such action. What is the reason behind this?"

"Is this a deliberate feint? Or is there some other scheme at play? Surely Shi Potian isn't about to die and is planning to wipe out Tianshui before he dies?"

Zhang Dawei became increasingly anxious the more he thought about it.

He dared not delay and hurriedly sent someone out of the back door of the escort agency to find people from the Hong Family Martial Arts School to keep order.

This way, even if Shi Potian were to fight desperately, the Hong Family Martial Arts School would be there to stop him.

Outside the Tianshui Escort Agency.

Shi Lin shouted several times, but Zhang Dawei and his son did not come out. Unconsciously, he became more and more excited.

"Look everyone, the Tianshui Escort Agency is such a coward, they don't even dare to come out the door."

"With such a cowardly and timid attitude, would you dare to entrust your goods to them for escort? I certainly wouldn't."

"I'm afraid that if we encounter bandits robbing us, they'll be cowering under the car, too scared to fight back, hahaha."

These words enraged Zhang Yang, who had just stepped out of the house.

"Shilin, what are you pretending to be, acting all high and mighty? Have you forgotten who was hiding in the security company crying and wailing this morning?"

"You dare to block my door? You're courting death."

After saying that, he looked at Chu Hong, his anger burning even more intensely:

"Chu Hong, if you know what's good for you and leave obediently, otherwise you'll be crying when the Hong family martial arts school people arrive!"

He truly hated Chu Hong.

If Chu Hong hadn't appeared, his plan would have been almost certainly successful, and he wouldn't be in such a sorry state now.

Chu Hong remained calm, pointed to Zhang Yang's sling, and said indifferently:

"Take care of yourself first."

"You..." Zhang Yang trembled with anger, pointing at Chu Hong, unable to utter a single word.

Zhang Dawei also slowly walked out of the door at this moment.

His gaze swept over the bodyguards of the Dawei Escort Agency, and after a moment, he turned his attention to Chu Hong:

"We won't shed tears until we see the coffin; if we're going to fight, then let's fight!"

He had no intention of engaging in a verbal battle with the Dawei Escort Agency.

As an elder, it's dishonorable to win a verbal battle, and it's even more dishonorable to lose.

Since the opponent has made a move, he should simply accept it.

But while fighting is possible, the rules still need to be set.

Zhang Dawei, his face grim, asked, "Shilin, have you read the letter I sent you?"

"What do you think of using the conditions in the letter as a prize?"

Shi Lin instinctively wanted to refuse; he dared not use the transportation route as a stake in a gamble.

If he loses, he will surely become a sinner to his family.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard Shi Potian's voice of agreement.

Shi Lin was taken aback. His father had spoken, so what could he possibly refuse?

Chu Hong also received Shi Potian's message, and his tone was calm:

"We agree, but what can you offer in return?"

Zhang Dawei clapped his hands and gave Chu Hong an appreciative look.

"Chu Hong, you really know how to take a loss. You used this tactic to gain access to the Qin family's martial arts at the martial arts exchange meeting."

"Using the same old trick again, what are you trying to win this time?"

Chu Hong remained unmoved and calmly replied:

"What I'm pursuing is fairness. It can't be that you win and get the benefits, but we win and get nothing."

"That makes sense!" At this moment, a commotion suddenly arose from the crowd.

The group from the Hong Family Martial Arts School had already arrived in front of the arena.

Hong Xing, the head of the Hong Family Martial Arts School, laughed loudly, "Zhang Dawei, are you afraid of this kid and don't dare to gamble?"

"Don't worry, with my martial arts school's disciples here, how could Chu Hong possibly win?"

Go ahead and gamble! If you lose, I'll cover it.

Upon hearing this promise, Zhang Dawei no longer hesitated.

"Alright, my Tianshui Escort Agency also has such a method. If you can win, we will hand it over to you."

"Okay, let's go."

Such contests between forces are usually conducted in a best-of-three format.

Each side can send one or three players to the field. After three rounds, the team with the most wins is the winner.

Therefore, even without being explicitly stated, Chu Hong and Zhang Dawei were both fully aware of this.

Zhang Dawei turned around and looked at the group of bodyguards from Tianshui Escort Agency. Some were veteran bodyguards, and some were new bodyguards who had just switched jobs.

Zhang Dawei did not name names, but simply spoke, giving everyone a chance:

"You are all pillars of my Tianshui Escort Agency. Today, my Tianshui Escort Agency has been insulted and needs someone to take action."

"I promise that if you defeat them, I will personally hand over one hundred taels of silver, and I will not go back on my word!"

"But one thing is certain: you need to be strong!"

In an instant, the bodyguards below began to stir with anticipation.

Even Chu Hong was surprised that Zhang Dawei was so generous, directly taking out one hundred taels of silver to send someone up on stage.

He could clearly see that Huang Cheng, who was standing in the corner, had a look of struggle on his face.

Under the reward, there must be a brave man.

Just a few breaths after Zhang Dawei finished speaking, several people stood up.

"Hey, count me in, sir!"

"Hey buddy, I'm here too. I've had my eye on this guy for a long time. He bullies us just because he's got some status. He's shameless."

"My lord, although I've only just arrived, but..."

"..."

Seeing the few people who stepped forward, Zhang Dawei's face showed a hint of satisfaction.

Besides Huang Cheng, the strongest members of the escort agency stepped forward, while Dawei's side didn't have many capable fighters.

As long as he avoids Chu Hong and wins the remaining two games, he won't have to worry about winning.

But the thought of Huang Cheng not taking action made a flash of anger in his eyes.

The onlookers were now buzzing with discussion.

"Why doesn't Huang Cheng go? Isn't he looking to make money? If he takes action, the Tianshui Escort Agency will be safe."

"You don't know, Huang Cheng is going to join the Dawei Escort Agency. Do you think he'll dare to make a move?"

"Hey, I know that guy. He used to be a top agent at Dawei Escort Agency. I never expected him to become a traitor."

Over here, Chu Hong jumped off the stage and also chose two powerful bodyguards.

Each side fielded three players.

Chu Hong wouldn't be foolish enough to try to run three opponents in a row; the chances of that going wrong are extremely high.

Soon, the first match began.

The镖师 (bodyguard/escort) sent by Tianshui镖局 (escort agency) was a镖师 who had "defected" from Dawei and possessed formidable strength.

Facing his former employer, he was extremely ruthless and showed no mercy.

But after dozens of rounds, he was still defeated.

After winning the first match, Shi Lin and the others already had joy on their faces.

Looking at the current situation, I'm sure I'll win!

On the other hand, Zhang Dawei and his group were shrouded in gloom.

However, the second match did not go as Chu Hong had hoped.

Dawei Escort Agency was defeated.

The score was now tied at 1-1.

The outcome of the next match will be crucial.

However, no one doubted Chu Hong's strength, and some even began to cheer for him.

Chu Hong slowly walked towards the arena, staring at the last person from the Tianshui Escort Agency.

"Come on up, let's fight!"

The last person was the strong man who had previously been shouting that he couldn't stand Chu Hong.

But at this moment, he was covered in sweat and hesitated, not daring to step forward.

"What, is your Tianshui Escort Agency going to admit defeat?" Shi Lin shouted.

Upon hearing this, the burly man secretly glanced at Zhang Dawei, only to see Zhang Dawei's cold expression, which made him even more uneasy.

Whenever Zhang Dawei showed that kind of expression, he knew the other person was on the verge of exploding with anger.

No matter what he does, his past mistakes will be brought up again after the show ends.

He was filled with regret, wishing he hadn't acted rashly and run out earlier.

After a few breaths, the strong man realized he had no choice but to straighten up and prepare to go on stage.

He had only taken two steps when Zhou Mingrui, the senior disciple of the Hong Family Martial Arts School, stepped forward and grabbed his shoulder.

"Brother Chu, how about I challenge you to a third round?!"
