Chapter 96: Chapter 91: Twin Masters, A-level Powerhouses!_2

"And besides, even if you end up not participating, having this connection and getting to know a few high-level people in the Fenglin Group could benefit your business."

Hong Wenbo finished speaking and lifted his glass to look at Wu Li, "What do you think, want to give it a try?"

Wu Li fell into deep thought. With the support of Haohan Fitness, Bo Yuan Company’s development in the domestic market could effectively solve the problems of equipment purchases and initial client traffic. However, when it came to purchasing and renting storefronts, the assistance Haohan Fitness could provide was limited.

For example, this time Bo Yuan Company was opening branches in four tier-one cities, they simply couldn’t rent good locations because all the prime spots had been taken, and this wasn’t something that money could solve, at least not for now.

And the more it was a tier-one city, the more important the location became. If the martial arts hall was too remote and took people two or three hours to reach, this would invisibly lose a large portion of customers.

So, if they could get support from a real estate giant like Fenglin Group in the early stages, Bo Yuan Company’s development speed could certainly accelerate by five years, if not ten.

Wu Li raised his glass and clinked it with Hong Wenbo, "Do you have any information on the opponent?"

Hong Wenbo started smiling, recognizing Wu Li’s interest. He pulled a document from the briefcase beside him and handed it to Wu Li, "This is the top fighter from Yu Group in New Country. He has served Yu Group for ten years, won three matches, and also participated in UFC fights, winning four consecutive matches before finding it uninteresting and withdrawing. He has won several international bare-knuckle fighting championships and has cleaned out many underground boxing rings."

Wu Li received the document, which included a photo of a dark-skinned, bare-chested middle-aged man with a fierce gaze.

"Basong, 35 years old, height 178, weight 80kg, excels in Muay Thai, has won the championship belts in three top-tier national Muay Thai competitions in Thailand."

This was a brief introduction in the document; there was also detailed information about Basong’s past matches and an analysis of his fighting style.

However, Wu Li didn’t continue reading. He only needed the simple information and the photo to activate the system’s detection feature.

[Height: 178cm

Weight: 80kg

Muscle Strength: 158 (135)

Muscle Burst: 160 (148)

Muscle Endurance: 146 (140)

Resistance To Hits: 162 (213)

Neural Response: 130 (143)

Skill: Muay Thai (Master Level), Myanmar Fist (Master Level), Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (Master Level)

Overall Score: A (14%)

(The data in parentheses are the host’s own)]

Wu Li was somewhat surprised; an A-level expert with double Master Level skills!

Myanmar Fist, also known as Bin Dao, originated in Myanmar and was initially developed on the battlefield, known for its brutal effectiveness.

During the British-Burmese War, the British Army was devastated by Burmese warriors, who were described as "fearsomely formidable enemies". At that time, most of the Burmese warriors used Myanmar Fist, which was eventually banned after the British claimed victory, nearly leading to its extinction.

The style of Myanmar Fist is similar to Muay Thai, involving extensive use of elbows and knees to continuously strike the opponent, but Myanmar Fist includes additional takedown and grappling techniques.

Since Basong was already a Master Level in Muay Thai, it probably wasn’t difficult for him to attain Master Level in Myanmar Fist as well, and it also compensated for his weaknesses in takedowns and grappling.

Being able to detect an A-level opponent indicated that Wu Li himself had also been rated as A-level by the system. From the comparison of data, it was evident that Wu Li had greatly enhanced his physical condition over the past two months through Bone and Muscle Strengthening in conjunction with medication. Yet, aside from Resistance To Hits and Neural Response, which were superior to Basong’s, his other attributes fell short.

Currently, Wu Li had a Master Level in Xingyi Fist and another Master Level skill, and the system rated his Overall Score as A- (67%), which was lower than Basong’s.

However, both Wu Li and Basong’s Overall Scores were only meant for MMA matches under normal rules. If it were in a real fight, such scores could only serve as a reference.

Even so, it was enough to show how powerful Basong was.

"How is it?" Hong Wenbo asked as he saw Wu Li pondering the data.

Wu Li put away the information, "I can give it a try."

"Haha, great!" Hong Wenbo burst into laughter and raised his glass again, "I knew you would take it. Martial artists, especially the young ones, always strive to be the best, right?"

Wu Li smiled and clinked glasses with Hong Wenbo. Indeed, Wu Li wanted to try not only because he could get help from the Fenglin Group, but also because he loved the thrill of the hunt.

He had never really met a worthy opponent since he was young. Although his grandfather was a great fighter, he was too old to compete; as for everyone else, none of them were masters in Wu Li’s eyes!

If Ren Donglai hadn’t taken drugs, Wu Li would have easily knocked him out; at the Extreme Martial Arts Tournament, Wu Li either won by KO or TKO, and finally faced Han Yuanfei, defeating him in his best area. Such matches and exchanges never really satisfied Wu.

As they say in "A Grandmaster": I’ve never seen a high mountain in my life.

Wu Li knew that as long as he kept competing, he would eventually meet true masters. However, the rules of combat sports meant he couldn’t just start off fighting against top competitors.

Especially in UFC, Wu Li needed to win many matches and build his record before he had the right to challenge the Boxing Champion.

Now that Wu Li had broken through to the Master Level, he was among the top competitors even among professional fighters, which made him even more eager to seize this opportunity to face a real master.

Initially, Wu Li told his mom that as a martial artist, when facing injustice or oppression, he couldn’t help but stand up; similarly, whether defeating a stronger opponent or being defeated by one, Wu Li would relish the experience!

So, Wu Li decided, he would fight!

As for the risks of the competition, Wu Li believed that with his current Master Level skills, even if he didn’t win, he could handle himself. And don’t forget, he still had millions of Fan Values unused!

[Name: Wu Li

Fan Value: 3.63 million

Money: 29.32 million

Skills: Xingyi Fist (Master Level), Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (Master Level), Piercing Kick (Skilled Level), Yong Chun (Skilled Level), Ground Fist (Skilled Level), Earth Skill Fist (Skilled Level)

Rare Skills: Iron Body, Endurance Muscle, Eagle Eye, Ultimate Killing Move,

Items: A-level Virtual Battle Card X1]

In terms of money, Wu Li withdrew 30 million and invested in Bo Yuan Company. The system automatically deducted 30 million, but the rewards from recent livestreams amounted to about 6 million, and sales of the Xingyi Fist tutorial added another 6 million. Plus the advertising fees from Haohan Fitness, Wu Li’s cash reserves were close to 30 million again.

This was because the mysterious wealthy female fan hadn’t come to gift money in the livestream lately; otherwise, Wu Li could have earned even more.

Regarding Fan Values, although Wu Li livestreamed every day, after the initial surge, the number of viewers stabilized at 20,000–30,000 per day. After all, watching martial arts can feel fresh just a few times — seeing fights every day gets old.

Before, Wu Li gained over a million Fan Values from a single match, but now it took almost two months to gain that much, highlighting the harsh nature of the internet world. As time goes on, if Wu Li can’t bring something new to his livestreams, the number of viewers will continue to drop.

That’s why Wu Li chose to attend the UFC tryouts, as only by consistently being in the public eye and achieving better results could his Fan Values continuously increase.

But now, holding 3.63 million Fan Values, he could certainly boost his abilities even further.

"Uncle Hong, when does the competition start?" Wu Li asked.

Hong Wenbo said, "On March 28, just a few days from now. So, if you agree, you’ll need to leave with me for the Fenglin Group headquarters in Capital City tomorrow. I should mention, I’m just recommending you; the Fenglin Group surely has other candidates prepared. You must be ready to compete with other masters."

Wu Li: "I wouldn’t have it any other way."
