...

Hearing that such a master was available, Kong Er was completely stunned. For a moment, he even forgot what he intended to say, just standing there dumbfounded.

"Second Brother, what do you think? Say something..."

It was Qin Fang who asked indifferently, bringing Kong Er back to reality from his daydreams.

"I want him! I absolutely want him! Please, you must introduce this master to me! Money is not a problem... name your price!"

Snapped out of it by Qin Fang, Kong Er hastily voiced his eagerness, worried that if he delayed even a second, Qin Fang might give the opportunity to someone else.

For example... the guy next to him, Qu Yuancheng!

After all, Qin Fang and Qu Yuancheng were cousins. If Qu Yuancheng really asked for it, Kong Er felt like he wouldn't stand a chance.

"Qin Fang, don't tell me... you're planning to become a boxer yourself?"

Kong Er didn't catch onto anything unusual, but Qu Yuancheng, standing to the side, questioned with suspicion. He seemed to have figured out what Qin Fang had in mind in one go.

"How could that be? These bloody matches... I'm fine watching them, but stepping into the ring myself? No, thanks. I don't find my life that meaningless yet."

Qin Fang, of course, wasn't going to admit it. The fewer people who knew about this, the better. Ideally, no one but himself would know.

Currently, the grievances between Qin Fang and the Qu Family had been partially resolved. A younger generation member like Qu Yuancheng even had a good relationship with Qin Fang's mother, Qin Qing. While Qin Qing didn't acknowledge her father and brothers, she did accept these nephews... Qu Yuanliang excluded.

Given this relationship, if Qu Yuancheng found out Qin Fang intended to participate in underground boxing matches, he would likely inform Qin Qing. That was the last thing Qin Fang wanted.

For this reason, Qin Fang absolutely wouldn't admit it, even if it were true.

"Still, if given the chance, I wouldn't mind giving it a try..."

Even after denying the possibility of him being the boxer, Qin Fang casually added this lighthearted remark, almost as if he were drawn to the allure of the ring.

"Eh... Younger Brother Qin, maybe you'd better not. These matches are brutal. Watching is fine, but stepping into the ring... it's best not to!"

Kong Er's attitude toward Qin Fang was now extremely polite. After all, Qin Fang could introduce him to a master. He couldn't afford to miss out on that, or he wouldn't even be able to sleep in peace.

Moreover, Kong Er genuinely didn't want anything bad to happen to Qin Fang.

"Qin Fang, don't mess around... spectating is one thing, but fighting is not on the table!"

Qu Yuancheng was naturally against it as well. Qin Fang was his cousin, and his aunt's only son. If something happened to him, how could he possibly explain it?

"It's alright, I'll treat it like a friendly match... I'll do my best not to hurt anyone!"

The more they protested, the more Qin Fang felt the need to showcase his skills a little. Otherwise, he feared others might genuinely look down on him.

His statement was incredibly bold. Rather than worrying about getting hurt, he only mentioned exercising restraint to avoid injuring others, inherently positioning himself as the victor.

"Please don't..."

Kong Er and Qu Yuancheng both had wry smiles, about to dissuade him further, when a few people walked over.

"Oh, isn't this Master Qu and Second Master Kong? Drinking here instead of watching the matches, are we?"

A young man dressed in lavish attire, with a handsome face but rather disappointing height, approached with a noticeably arrogant demeanor. Even when addressing Qu Yuancheng and Kong Er, he slightly raised his chin, as if his status and position were extraordinary.

"Yamamoto, what a surprise to see you here! Traveling all the way to Hong Kong Island just to watch matches—what a distinguished guest!"

Seeing Yamamoto, both Kong Er and Qu Yuancheng immediately had expressions akin to discovering a fly in their drink—utter disgust.

Yet, they couldn't show it too blatantly. Despite their obvious distaste, they forced polite smiles and spoke in a pretentious tone, making their disdain for the young man crystal clear.

"I came today because I heard some rich young masters on Hong Kong Island had invited skilled boxers. I specifically brought my fighters to challenge theirs... but alas, they were all terribly disappointing. They couldn't take a single hit. Very disappointing."

Yamamoto disregarded the sarcasm in Kong Er and Qu Yuancheng's words, replying with an even more disdainful tone.

At this moment, Qin Fang and the others noticed a group of young, well-dressed men not far behind Yamamoto's entourage. These were obviously local Hong Kong Island playboys, most of whom now had injured companions in tow.

Based on Yamamoto's statement, it was clear those boxers had been defeated by his fighters...

The faces of the defeated young masters were ghastly pale. Losing the matches was already humiliating, but Yamamoto boasting about it publicly exacerbated their anger. Despite their seething rage, there was nothing they could do to Yamamoto.

"Mr. Sato, let me introduce these two illustrious young masters from Hong Kong Island. This is the second young master of the Kong Family, and this is the eldest young master of the Qu Family... Both are powerful figures who can shake the entire island merely by stomping their feet!"

Clearly, Yamamoto had bad intentions. Pulling one of his subordinates forward, he sarcastically introduced Sato to Qu Yuancheng and Kong Er.

"Pleased to meet you!"

The young man called Sato, likely in his twenties and slightly older than Qin Fang, greeted them. Despite his words, his haughty demeanor mirrored Yamamoto's, making it abundantly clear he looked down on them.

"Gentlemen, Mr. Sato here is one of the finest masters from our Great Japan's Karate Kyokushin-ryu..."

Not content with merely introducing Sato, Yamamoto went on to fawn over him. His intention to provoke Qu Yuancheng and Kong Er was blatant.

While Qu Yuancheng and Kong Er's expressions turned uglier by the second, they couldn't act rashly. Yamamoto's background was no trivial matter. As the son of a major figure in the Yamaguchi Group, he oversaw Yamaguchi's operations in Hong Kong Island.

Although the Xin'an organization dominated the local underworld, the Yamaguchi Group's backing from Japan's headquarters meant Xin'an couldn't easily eradicate them.

Relying on this, Yamamoto remained a domineering figure on Hong Kong Island, showing no deference even to Qu Yuancheng and Kong Er.

"Oh? A Karate master... seems somewhat decent in skill."

Bound by their status, Qu Yuancheng and Kong Er couldn't say much, but Qin Fang wasn't so constrained. Seeing Yamamoto act so high and mighty, he immediately spoke up in disapproval.

Mimicking Yamamoto and Sato's earlier tone, Qin Fang deliberately raised his chin even higher, his disdain for them unambiguously expressed.

Qu Yuancheng and Kong Er were momentarily stunned, but they quickly grasped what was going on. Though they didn't say anything, their eyes twinkled with suppressed laughter.

From the moment this group appeared, Qin Fang had been sizing them up. He immediately noticed a couple of truly skilled fighters among them.

These two individuals stood out significantly from the rest, their techniques clearly a level or two better—masters among masters...

Listening to Yamamoto's words now, it was evident these two were also Japanese Karate fighters, with advanced skill levels to boot.

Sato, as it happened, was one of the two. His prowess placed him in the Level 5 range, far surpassing the Level 3 or Level 4 fighters fielded by the local playboys. Overpowering them was hardly a challenge.

Yet, to Qin Fang, such a "master" was merely "somewhat decent."

"Baka!"

"Baka!"

The Japanese fighters, naturally servile but quick to lash out when slighted, couldn't bear being looked down upon. Both Yamamoto and Sato's faces darkened as they shouted in unison, their hostility unmistakable.

Sato even stepped forward, signaling his readiness to take action at the slightest provocation.

Sato's reaction alarmed Qu Yuancheng and Kong Er, who feared Qin Fang might suffer. That was the last thing they wanted to see.

"Can't you even speak properly? Communicating with you is such a hassle..."

Unfazed, Qin Fang muttered almost as if talking to himself. Though his voice wasn't loud, it was loud enough for everyone to hear.

"Hahaha..."

If Qin Fang's earlier remark was just a light jab, this quip was a merciless slap across their faces. The disdain was beyond evident.

Qu Yuancheng and Kong Er suppressed their laughter, but the defeated Hong Kong Island playboys trailing behind couldn't hold back. Having waited for an opportunity to see the Japanese humiliated, they burst into raucous laughter.

"Baka... You've insulted me! I challenge you to a duel!"

Yamamoto's face grew ashen. Seeing Qu Yuancheng and Kong Er's reactions only deepened his humiliation, though he couldn't afford to explode just yet. Sato, meanwhile, turned visibly livid, his fury toward Qin Fang roaring to dangerous levels. He looked ready to pummel Qin Fang on the spot...
