The atmosphere was full of enthusiasm, especially the betting area, which was crowded and extremely lively.
It had been a long-standing practice in Club Illuma to place bets on the expected winners before the fights began.
And this time, the fight between Maxim and Lucas was the most exciting one of the night. So in addition to the audience, there were countless people from various forces and major consortiums from all around the world.
In just a few minutes, the total amount of bets placed on this match had reached a terrifying figure of over two billion dollars, which was the highest amount for a single match in the history of Club Illuma!
But based on the situation of the crowd’s bets, most of the audience was more optimistic about the middle-aged Maxim winning. After all, he was an expert hired by the Steeles, one of the eight top families. He exuded a domineering aura as soon as he stepped on stage, very much having the style of a master.
On the other hand, Lucas was just a newcomer whom few people knew. In particular, his young age made many people subconsciously assume that he would be defeated by Maxim.
Maxim looked at Lucas walking up to him. Instead of fighting immediately, he said, “Young man, Trevor just told me that if you’re willing to surrender and work for him, he will pay you fifteen million dollars a year!”
Regardless of the profession, an annual salary of 15 million dollars was an astronomical figure.
Hearing this, Lucas smirked, feeling a strong urge to laugh.
Trevor actually wanted him to work for him!
How could Trevor think of getting someone with Lucas’s status to work for him?
Lucas looked at Maxim and said, “I’ll give you a chance too. If you work for me, I’ll give you an annual salary of three million dollars. How does that sound?”
Although Maxim was good at martial arts, paying him 15 million dollars a year was impossible. Three million was far more reasonable.
Lucas thought that if Maxim wasn’t participating in this tournament for Trevor, his annual salary would probably be about this amount.
“Punk, you’re insulting me!” Maxim immediately turned gloomy, thinking that Lucas was humiliating him on purpose.
“Are you not willing?” With regret on his face, Lucas waved his hands. “Then, I’ll have to kill you tonight.”
“How arrogant! Who knows who’s going to die!” Maxim hollered angrily. He stomped on the floor and leaped toward Lucas in an instant.
“Wooo! They’re fighting!”
“Quickly, look at the fight!”
…
Seeing the two of them finally start fighting, the audience immediately cheered and yelled excitedly.
Alexander and Ashley were sitting in front of the ring and watching Maxim charging toward Lucas ferociously. They were so frightened and nervous that cold sweat broke out on their palms, and they didn’t even dare to breathe!
Whether or not they could survive, and whether or not the money they bet would go down the drain, would all depend on who won in the ring!
At this moment, Jace and the white-bearded old man had returned to the fighting hall and were watching the fight between Lucas and Maxim close to the ring.
Seeing Lucas standing still after Maxim made his move, the white-bearded old man sneered. “So weak!”
Jace burst into laughter. “Yes, I think Lucas Gray is weak as well. Seeing his opponent rushing toward him, he’s scared out of his wits and doesn’t even dare to dodge…”
Before he could finish speaking, the white-bearded old man interrupted, “Are you blind? If Lucas Gray were really that weak and timid, how could he have forced you to such a state and become the stone that sharpens you?”
Jace suddenly felt suffocated. He finally understood that the white-bearded old man was referring to the middle-aged man!
Jace immediately turned pale, and he became a little scared at the thought of Lucas almost killing him just now.
“Damn it! Is that punk scared silly? His opponent is already attacking. Why isn’t he moving?! I bet seven million on him!”
“Haha, that punk really doesn’t make the cut. He can’t even dodge or defend properly. He’ll probably be beaten to death soon! Fortunately, I bet fifteen million dollars on the middle-aged man!”
“It’s too meaningless if it’s just a one-sided fight!”
…
The audience clamored one after another.
Many people who bet on Lucas were furious and cursed at him when they saw him standing still. They wished they could rush up to the ring to urge him to make a move.
In the ring, Maxim’s eyes were full of killing intent as he focused all his strength in his right fist.
Since Lucas refused to accept Trevor’s offer, there was no need to keep him alive!
He had to end Lucas’s life immediately with this blow!
This was the order Trevor had given Maxim. Since Lucas wouldn’t work for Trevor, Maxim would kill him!
Maxim had already rushed in front of Lucas and smashed his fist full of power at Lucas’s head with all his might!
With this thunderous strike, he could even punch through a 10-centimeter-thick steel plate!
What more a human head…
Just as the crow thought that Lucas would be killed instantly by this lightning-fast punch, they inhaled sharply. But the next second, they saw Maxim’s body flying backward much faster than when he approached Lucas. Like a cannonball, he was slammed hard against the steel guardrails around the ring!
Bang!
The tremendous impact caused the steel guardrails to deform.
Maxim’s body bounced back and crashed to the floor.
When his body landed on the floor, he spurted a large mouthful of blood with a look of immense horror in his eyes.
He parted his blood-stained lips, seemingly wanting to say something but eventually remained silent. His head suddenly drooped, and he passed away right on the spot!
“How is that possible?!”
“What?!”
“That’s impossible!”
…
This scene made countless spectators stand up in shock, disbelief written all over their faces!
They could have never imagined that the powerful middle-aged man representing the Steeles had been killed by Lucas with a single punch!
