"Since the quarter finals have ended, let's make the draw for the semi-finals." As the host spoke, he gazed towards the screen projection that had already began showing the names of the four participants.

When the random selection was completed, the host shouted, "Our first match will be mad lion against vulture!"

These words immediately made the crowd even more spirited. They knew these two as they had been fighting in this arena for over a year now and the winner of the first place always alternated between the two of them.

The two walked out of the locker room one after the other. The moment that they reached the arena, the crowd's cheering became even louder than before.

Most of the spectators were looking forward to a match that would surely sweep away their disappointment. If the same thing as the one that had happened in the match between scarred tiger a Gibby repeated itself, there would surely be something happening. And that something would definitely be more than just shouting and complaining.

Jack on the other hand couldn't help but wonder if it was just a coincidence or the heavens were looking forward to the time that he would be beating scarred tiger. Since mad lion and vulture were going to fight for a spot into the finals, it was natural that Jack would go against scarred tiger.

Anyway, with Jack's current strength, there was nothing that could stop him from teaching someone that there was always someone ahead of you.

Refocusing on the match, after the betting session ended, the gong rang and the fight immediately began. Both mad lion and vulture didn't move and continued staring at each other.

They stayed in such a manner for over two minutes till the crowd began getting impatient with the way that the duo were looking at each other.

"What the f*ck! Don't tell me that there's a problem with this match as well!"

"What are you two doing down there? Start fighting already!"

"We didn't pay to come and watch this nonsense, we came here to watch a fight!"

"You two, what's up with your gazes? Are you going to fight or not?!"

"Believe me, if you don't start fighting at this moment, I will come down there and make you fight me!"

"What nonsense are you spouting? You're always beaten up by your wife and now you're trying to prove your dominance here?"

"F*ck you! Do you think it's like before? Nowadays I tamed my wife. I'm the Lord of the hou-"

Pah!

"What lord of the house? You dare to say that you tamed me? Let's see how I deal with you when we get back home!"

"W-wifey, I…. I am sorry, alright? I was just joking, yes, just joking…"

"Humph!"

"Hahahaha!"

"…."

The crowd chattered nonstop but they didn't know that there was something that was going on in the ring. Mad lion and vulture looked at each other and there was some kind of competition in their eyes.

After a long while of ignoring the spectating crowd, they finally began fighting. Their attacks were fierce with the intention of winning with a single blow.

Kicks and punches flew from left and right as the two fighters kept on moving. The crowd had already stopped complaining the moment that the two began fighting each other. Now, they were cheering loudly at how fierce the two of them were fighting.

Jack narrowed his eyes as he looked at the fight that was going on through the screen in the locker room. Although others couldn't see it clearly, Jack could do that easily.

From the moment that the two had been staring at each other, Jack became keen and began observing their movements. He could see that the two of them seemed to be communicating with each other.

It was only after one of them consigned that the two began fighting. Immediately, Jack knew that it seemed that the scheme was still in progress.

So, his eyes keenly observed the movements of the two. Then, he noticed another thing, that was the fact that, although the two of them seemed to be fighting intensely, in reality, they were actually pulling their punches in the last moment.

Furthermore, he could see that they would even ignore the openings that could be used to deal a critical damage to the opponent. Upon seeing this, Jack immediately confirmed that the scheme was still in progress. But, what was the other part of the scheme? Jack could already guess it.

As the fight went on, vulture fell into a disadvantage. Then, he made a mistake and mad lion took the chance and kicked him on the chest. Followed by that, he rapidly rushed towards him and threw another punch before vulture could stabilize himself.

In the end, since vulture was closer to the edge of the ring, he was forced to fall out of the ring. The moment that this happened, loud cheers erupted in the arena.

In the eyes of the crowd, although it was humiliating to be defeated by being thrown out of the ring, that could be forgotten as long as you had given a good fight. They'll just say that you were unlucky, that's all.

But, in Jack's eyes, everything was crystal clear. As a professional combatant, he could already see what was happening. From the movements of the two, Jack could tell that this wasn't the first time that they were performing instead of fighting.

The end of this fight came without any of the two sustaining any serious injuries. As for kicking vulture out of the ring, he could see that the two were moving towards the edge of the ring deliberately.

With their fighting experience, there were some things that they would definitely not ignore. How could they ignore the fact that they would lose the match as long as they fell off the ring?

So, each and every fighter always made sure to move away from the edge of the ring even if they had to suffer an attack. At least even with that injury, they still had a chance of winning the match.

On the other hand, as long as they were kicked out of the ring, the match was over. The closer they were to the edge of the ring, the higher the chances they had to lose the match.

Jack simply shook his head at the thought of this. Although the two had a high level, in front of him, they were no different from rookies. Additionally, it seemed that he'd been expecting so much from mad lion.

Although his punches were pulled at the last moment, Jack could see that they were starting at full power. In other words, he attacked with full power but made a mistake that would make it possible for vulture to escape.

Just like that, although the two of them had cheated in this match, instead of their reputation being ruined, their reputation soared into the air as the new fans that were seeing them for the first time Immediately joined their fan clubs.

After the match, there was thirty minutes of wait. And Jack could see that this was another part of the scheme. This was going to give scarred tiger enough time to recover and reach his peak condition before the fight.

In the quarter finals, scarred tiger had only spent his energy while dealing with the three others. In the end, he didn't suffer many injuries. And, during the fight between mad lion and vulture, although they had already decided on who was going to win, they still fought for over twenty minutes.

All this while plus the extra thirty minutes, scarred tiger who had only suffered from little exhaustion would have recovered fully.

These scheming people were indeed thorough in their plans. It's just that all the schemes were nothing in front of absolute strength. And, Jack had absolute strength when matched against these three and their mastermind.

After thirty minutes, Jack and scarred tiger the ring. And the moment that they saw Jack who was wearing white tracksuit and the silver mask on his face, they erupted in cheers.

How could they not recognize Jack after he had instantly defeated his previous opponents? Now, they had already formed a fan club for him. What was boosting the morale and thrill of the spectating crowd was the fact that Jack was still a newcomer to the arena, the current black horse.

And although his body was small, his strength couldn't be measured with his body size as his previous opponents could bear witness to that.

"Is that the guy that you were talking about?"

"Yeah, he's calling himself JK Silver. I think Edwin knows him."

"Why does it look like he's a youth?"

"He's a youth. I don't think that he's over twenty yet."

"Seriously? I can't wait for his performance in this match."

The big bosses were all anticipating what was going to happen next and couldn't help but get impatient that the gong wasn't ringing yet. Of course, they were only anticipating to see how strong Jack really was.

Gong!

With the sound of the gong, the second round of the semi-finals finally began under the gazes of thousands of pairs of eyes.
