Chapter 6: The Dance of the Dragon and the Phoenix (3)

At the start of the ninth race, the staff came to the break room with a pair of 10oz (ounce) gloves in their left hand and a list in the other. He shouted:

"Tang Long—Tang Long."

Tang Long answered, walked in front of him, the referee looked up at him, then looked at the list, and said to him:

"You are Tang Long?"

"Yes."

"Hurry down, the next game is your game." The staff handed him a pair of old stinking red gloves.

"Okay, thanks." Tang Long took the gloves and said.

After Wang Gang wiped Vaseline on Tang Long's face, he took two bottles of Cestbon mineral water from the box in the corner of the lounge and put them into Tang Long's backpack, and carried the bag on his back. Everyone came to the square together and stood behind the iron horse to watch the game. The 75kg contest entered the second round and was in full swing. The red fighter strangled the blue boxer's neck, jumped his knee, and pressed his knee against the blue boxer's chin, instantly knocking the blue boxer out.

After the guests presented the winners of the ninth 75-kilogram bout, the fighters began to play. The first to appear was the blue boxer, Chen Lei of the Boxing Star Fight Club. The theme song of the Hong Kong drama "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" - "Iron Blood Pill Heart" sounded, Chen Lei trotted to the ring, there was a small wooden ladder on the side of the ring, he walked along the wooden ladder to the ring, pressed the protective rope, jumped into the ring, raised his fists and trotted sideways, circled the ring to greet the audience under the stage, and then returned to the corner cushion of the blue ring, leaned against the protective rope, and waited for Tang Long to play.

The electronic screen shows his bust and basic information such as his club, age, height, and record record.

After introducing Chen Lei, it was time for Tang Long to appear.

"Please invite a boxer from Shenzhen Pengqiang Fight Club - Tang Long......" The host dragged the voice of the word Tang Long long and high.

When Tang Long heard the word boxer, his heart was surging, and he still remembered what Coach Zhang said to the man in black who was knocked out by him when he went to Pengqiang Fight Club for the first time: Boxer is not only a title, an identity, but also an honor. Not everyone deserves to be called a fighter. And now, the host of this event has publicly declared that he is a fighter in front of hundreds of spectators, which means that he has finally become a recognized fighter, with an identity that he could not have imagined before. He was so immersed in excitement and pride that he almost forgot that a vicious battle was about to come.

Tang Long's original appearance music submitted to the event party was GAI based on the TV series

"The Great Wall", adapted from the theme song of "Huo Yuanjia" "The Great Wall Never Falls", GAI sang with an impassioned voice: "

Qin Shi Mingyue Han Shi Guan

Over the heavy mountains and another mountain

Endless heroic blood

The northern frontier of Cyprus arrived at the foreign border

The dragon raised its head and shone in the east

The stars above him shone golden

The tiger roared and shook the three rivers

Protecting the country is impregnable

The surging wind is coming

The iron bones show my Chinese blood

Time is not waiting, time is not waiting

Holding a bottle of mountains and seas, the world's magnificence

The courage given by our ancestors

guts

By the effort of your own hands

Step up your game

It doesn't matter what the situation is

Fengyun

The vast land beneath your feet

The Great Wall will never fall

Thousands of miles of Yellow River water

The rivers and mountains are beautiful, and the colorful peaks and ridges are stacked

Ask me what my country is like ...... sick."

Tang Long turned his head and looked behind him, behind him, Wang Gang, Sun Dalei, Xiao Yue and the five children were all looking at him. Their eyes had never been as bright as they were today, almost so shaky that he didn't dare to look at them.

"Come on, Tang Long, it's up to you!" Sun Dalei shouted.

He looked at them, nodded, walked into the passage surrounded by iron horses, stepped on the red carpet, and walked into the ring unhurriedly under the comments of the audience, he pretended to be calm, but under the direct gaze of so many eyes, he couldn't control his heart from beating faster because of nervousness. Wang Gang and Sun Dalei followed behind him, came to the corner of the red ring, took out Tang Long's braces and the mineral water he had just packed into his bag, he put the braces in his trouser pocket, and the mineral water was placed under the ring.

When the narrator introduced that Tang Long's record was zero, there were some faint boos outside the ring, and he smelled the smell of ridicule from this laughter, and he became even more nervous.

"Relax, brother, relax." Wang Gang said under the ring.

He looked at Wang Gang and Sun Dalei and nodded.

He walked to the center of the ring, and after making a fist salute to each of the four directions, he retreated to the corner of the ring, took a deep breath of air, and then slowly exhaled, lowered his arms, and gently jumped in place, relaxing his body.

After the narrator introduced the boxer, he briefly said the name of the referee, and the referee walked to the middle of the ring and motioned for the two fighters to come over. Tang Long and Chen Lei walked over from the corner and gathered around the referee.

The foreign girl holding the sign of the first round began to circle the field.

The referee explained the rules of the game, then slapped his palms twice, spread them flat, and motioned for them to clench their fists in greeting. Chen Lei spread his fists, Tang Long touched his fists with his fists, and the two retreated to their respective corner pads, the referee raised his palm, slammed it down hard, and shouted Fight, signaling the official start of the game.

They raised their fists and pressed each other into each other's hands. He heard the neat and unanimous shouts of Bai Sumei, Ajie, Li Mo, Zhang Shuai, Wang Xiaolin, and Zhang Tiantian outside the ring:

"Come on, Tang Long, come on......"

This cheering sound inspired his heart, and even drove away the shadow of the ridicule from under the ring when he first appeared in his heart, yes, even if he was a rookie fighter with no competition experience, even if it was his first professional fight in his life, so what, there were still people cheering him on, and there were still people looking forward to him. What a wonderful thing it is in life to have someone to pay attention to him, support him, and encourage him! He raised his fists, put on a fighting streak, and cautiously walked towards Chen Lei and bumped fists with him.

Sure enough, as Wang Gang expected, Chen Lei launched a fierce attack on him at the beginning, trying to make a quick decision and knock him out at once. Although Tang Long was mentally prepared, he was still blinded, and he received a few punches to both cheeks and ribs, but fortunately, the opponent was only a novice who had played four fights, and his awareness, strength, and punches had not yet blended well, which made his attack power a little less, otherwise he might have been knocked out.

He was beaten back and forth, until he was forced to the red square pad, and there was no way to retreat. He hooked his head, held his head with both hands, leaned his back against the rope, and didn't even dare to look at the other party's eyes, and the opponent's fists and kicks fell on his body in a row, he was simply a human punching bag, and the situation was very dangerous.

"Hold him." Sun Dalei under the corner pad was anxious and shouted behind him.

After he heard Sun Dalei's shout, he hugged Chen Lei's neck and pressed his whole body towards him, Chen Lei raised his right knee and pressed the inside of his knee against his lower left waist, he almost lost his breath. He pushed Chen Lei away with all his might, left the dangerous area, and retreated to the center of the ring.

Chen Lei saw him retreat to the center of the ring and immediately began to pursue.

"Move fast, control the distance, and fight back." Wang Gang shouted to him from the side.

"Come on, Tang Long, come on......" Xiaoyue and the children were still shouting for him.

When Chen Lei quickly approached his attack area, he arched his right leg, contracted his right leg to his chest, and then kicked out like an arrow, and the soles of his feet hit Chen Lei's chest, hitting his stomach, Chen Lei's body was kicked out three steps away by him, and he almost fell to the ground.

"Good—beautiful!" Sun Dalei shouted.

"Well, the red player is inexperienced, but after withstanding the blue player's attack, he starts to fight back." Narrator.

"Press forward, make a move, don't wait." Wang Gang shouted.

He shook his upper limbs and cautiously approached Chen Lei, turning passive into active. Chen Lei jumped in and punched him in the mouth. He took a step back, dodged Chen Lei's front hand straight punch, and slapped Chen Lei's back hand straight punch with his left hand, at the same time, he waved his long arm, and his right hand hit Chen Lei's cheek, Chen Lei's body shook and took two steps back.
