The outcome was announced, those who bet on Kun Lan to win would earn a modest sum; they could use their betting slips to exchange for money at the Continent Martial Arts Competition’s designated bank in the arena.
Everyone looked forward to the next match featuring Rag Head, preparing to go all-in on Rag Head’s fight. Even if the odds were low, small earnings were still profits.
The arena, a site of collective revelry, was seething with excitement.
However, the card dealer walking around the field delivered some unfortunate news: the upcoming match featuring Rag Head was canceled. Because he was on a winning streak and showing exceptional performance, he would move directly to the semifinals.
The betting was closed, opening up wagers for the other two competitors.

Liszt, upon hearing the news, immediately shot to his feet. He had taken a risk of exposing his identity to see that man just once, and now you’re telling me this, damn it.
He moved past Galen, heading straight for the card dealer. He intended to enter the preparatory room for the players backstage to verify the news himself.
Galen, sensing Liszt’s murderous intent and, despite being a low-level Boss who idolized Liszt, knew now was not the time for trouble.
Liszt was about to grab the dealer by the collar and, through a mix of intimidation and bribery—even using some gold—get him to take Liszt backstage.
