Super Soldier

After Xiao Bing defeated Taro, the Osaka Mingdao and his son from Osaka didn’t bother him anymore. If Osaka Mingdao kept sending men to disturb him, Xiao Bing would love to have beaten the crap out of this man.

Xiao Bing worried that his opponent tomorrow would not be Jiro. Princess Nami would choose one competitor to be her warrior and the other would be decided by the match. If Princess Nami chose Xiao Bing for his looks, he might not have the chance to fight Jiro and see this man wielding his third saber.

It was not a piece of good news for Xiao Bing. He even prayed that his foe would be this man tomorrow morning. Otherwise, if the lubricious princess chose him, he would lose this opportunity .

Xiao Bing fell asleep worrying. He even dreamt he was being chosen because of his looks. It’s a hard life for a handsome guy.

The next day, Xiao Bing walked to the lobby and noticed some men asking around about him. He wondered if these people were Osaka Mingdao’s men. Their leader seemed well-educated, unlike other gangsters.

When he saw Xiao Bing, he walked over smiling. The leader seemed over 50 and looked very gentle with two wisps of white hair near temples. But he still looked radiant. “Mr. Aoki, I’m sorry to bother you.”

Curious, Xiao Bing shook hands with him, “You are?”

“I forgot to introduce myself. I’m Osaka Hegu.”

Seeing Xiao Bing’s expression change, Osaka Hegu quickly explained, “Please don’t misunderstand. I’m not Osaka Mingdao’s man, and I don’t have any relationship with him. It’s purely by chance that we share the same name. I’m a real businessman, not a thug.”

Xiao Bing expression softened and he smiled, “My apologies. I have problems with Osaka Yangzi and his father. I thought you were one of them when I heard your name. So how can I help you, Mr. Osaka?”

“It’s like this.” Smiling, Osaka Hegu held out a card, “Here’s my card.”

Xiao Bing glanced at it. The card said he was Chairman of the Board at Hegu Group.

Osaka Hegu smiled, “Hegu Group is one of the top 5 groups in Jingdu, and the top 10 in the whole country. I saw your god-like might yesterday. So can I ask you to be the manager of our security department? Your will be paid far more than a princess’s warrior. You are a powerful man. Don’t you think your talents will be wasted?”

As Xiao Bing had expected, this man was here to ask for his service. Xiao Bing realized Hegu’s purpose when he took out his card. After all, the competitors at this stage were all very powerful. It would help him a lot if he could employ one of them.

Xiao Bing grinned, “Why don’t you ask the other two? Fukuda Ogawa and Jiro may even be more powerful than me.”

Osaka Hegu guffawed, “To be honest, though I may not be able to see it, but the people around me can. I know that Fukuda Ogawa is definitely inferior to you.”

Xiao Bing glanced at the man standing beside Osaka Hegu. He was wearing sunglasses. “He analyzed it for you, right?”

Osaka Hegu smiled as he nodded his head.

Xiao Bing asked, “Then why didn’t Mr. Osaka ask Mr. Nakamura for his service? You think that I’m more powerful than him too?”

Osaka Hegu answered sternly, “Truth be told, it’s highly likely that he’s stronger than you, according to his performance. But I was told that this Jiro is a very vicious man. I have always kept a distance from men like him. After all, I’m just a businessman.”

Xiao Bing nodded with an approving look. That’s good. Currently, most businessmen can only see what profit wants them to see. They are prone to ignore what is underneath the surface. You are better than them, since you have thought about it. It indeed seems to be a good choice to follow you.”

Osaka Hegu sounded elated, “So will Mr. Aoki…”

“I’m sorry.” Xiao Bing answered with a smile, “The terms do sound tempting. But I’m here only for the princess. So I have to refuse your offer.”

“I see…” Osaka Hegu seemed a little upset, but his expression returned to normal again. He didn’t seem angry. Instead, he put on a polite smile and said, “Then Mr. Aoki, please keep the card. You can call me whenever you change your mind. The post will always be there for you. By the way, I take it that Mr. Aoki is not local?” My words may not be law here, but my voice is loud enough to be heard. If Mr. Aoki is in trouble, you can call me any time. I’d love to offer a helping hand to a friend.”

Xiao Bing asked, “I rejected your offer. Why are you still willing to help me?”

Osaka Hegu smiled, “Friends can never be too many. I consider Mr. Aoki a true friend of mine. It’s getting late now. Mr. Aoki, would you like a ride to the fighting pit?”

Xiao Bing nodded, believing that this man meant him no ill. At least he seemed like a decent man. And Xiao Bing was impressed by the things he just said. Small wonder R Country became what it is today. If a man like him was in the underground world, he would definitely become a legend like Master Hou. If he was a businessman, at least he would be as successful as Ye Bancheng who could make others become loyal to him. Though Xiao Bing refused his offer, he was still impressed by this man.

After Xiao Bing got into the car, Osaka Hegu sat beside Xiao Bing. The car was heading towards the Martial Arts Club. “Mr. Aoki, do you know what kind of a person Her Royal Highness is?”

“The most beautiful in the country?”

“Of course she is. No one has ever denied her beauty. But I mean her personality.”

“How am I supposed to know that?” Xiao Bing managed a wry smile, “I’ve never had the chance to meet Princess Nami.”

“I see. ” Osaka didn’t answer Xiao Bing. He just smiled.

Xiao Bing found this man somehow mysterious, but he didn’t probe deeper.

Then they arrived at the door of the club. Some people were surprised when they saw Xiao Bing walking in with Osaka Hegu, especially the ones who also wanted to employ some competitors. They all wondered if it was too late for them. But since Xiao Bing had come here for the competition, he would definitely have rejected this man’s offer.

Xiao Bing seated himself for a while after he walked into the building. After everyone had come, they began drawing.

Xiao Bing walked over to join the first round. But he was disappointed because his opponent was neither Jiro nor Fukuda Ogawa. And they were not to fight each other in this round either.

The matches in this round were easy for the three of them. They defeated their opponents without much effort. Then the 10 winners for the next round were decided.

Since the competitors here were few, the next round began in the morning. Xiao Bing even suspected that the organizers had done something in the draw. Because during the next round none of the three’s opponent were there. So once again, they were all promoted.

But it was noon break now. As Xiao Bing prepared to go for his lunch, a faint voice drifted into his ears, “May I have the honor of having lunch with Mr. Aoki outside the building?”

Xiao Bing looked around and found that the chief executive had just walked passed him. He understood immediately. Then he sauntered out, pretending to be very relaxed.

The chief executive walked into a Japanese restaurant with Xiao Bing trailing behind. The chief executive stopped at the door of a room. Then he whirled around, looking at Xiao Bing with a smile on his face.

Xiao Bing walked over to the chief executive and smiled wryly, “Does the Chief Executive want to open a back door for me?”

“Young man, it is not for me to offer you this invitation. Please come in. I will not be entering this room!”

Xiao Bing glanced into the room and his heart began pumping. Though he couldn’t see through the door, he could imagine who was behind it, since this person could ask the chief executive to bring him here. But Xiao Bing could not understand why this person chose him over the other four. He wondered why this person didn’t bring the other four with him.

Am I going to be the chosen one and watch the rest fight for the last slot?

But I haven’t had the chance to experience Jiro’s third saber. Isn’t it bad for my cultivation?

Princess Nami must have seen my picture on the sheet I handed over. Sometimes being too handsome is not a good thing. It will draw too much attention.

Xiao Bing nodded, “Thank you, Chief Executive. Then, smiling, he pushed the door open.
