NOVPUBHearing Huang Yan say that, Cui Xian’s entire face darkened, and his heart sank with it.
The blacklist in the insurance industry hadn’t existed for just a day or two, but had been around for quite some time.
It all started with Super Dragon making movies, loving to perform extremely dangerous stunts and insisting on doing them himself.
This scared the insurance companies across the country to no end.
After all, filming a Super Dragon movie was genuinely dangerous; it was like a brush with death for nearly every film he made.
Under such circumstances, if any insurance company sold him a policy and one day Super Dragon accidentally lost his life, wouldn’t that company be bankrupted by the payout?
So Super Dragon had made it onto the blacklist of all insurance companies, and no matter how much he offered, these companies would not sell him insurance.
Following Super Dragon, the rising star was Wu Bin.
Wu Bin’s performance might be entertaining to viewers in the live stream, but to insurance companies, he was practically a demon!
This guy could suffer a full-body, comminuted fracture from just a casual bump. Which insurance company would dare take him on as a client?
So, even though Wu Bin wasn’t as famous as Super Dragon, he too had become a noted figure among the major insurance companies.
Unfortunately, even if insurance companies were reluctant to provide personal accident insurance to Wu Bin, in situations like accidents occurring at insured venues, the companies still had to compensate.
After all, their so-called blacklist was, strictly speaking, illegal.
If insurance companies could cherry-pick their clients at will, wouldn’t that be unfair to those engaged in dangerous occupations?
Seeing Huang Yan’s adamant attitude, Cui Xian knew that convincing him to cancel the match was impossible.
Cui Xian could only stand by the side and pray earnestly, hoping that nothing would happen to Wu Bin. If anything went wrong, his job would be on the line.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Wu Bin and Lei Dong made their way to the field.
Fei Jiemin, acting as the referee, checked Wu Bin’s protective gear and then briefed him on the rules of the combat.
"This match is meant to exchange skills in friendship. You should stop at light contact, remember, no eye-poke, no groin kick, no throat strike, other moves are not restricted."
Wu Bin nodded to show he understood, but to his surprise, Lei Dong confidently said, "Wu Bin, you’re just a newbie, so we don’t need so many rules for you. Fight however you want, go all out. Only if you give it your all can I showcase the correct way to defend and counterattack."
Hearing Lei Dong say this, Wu Bin was visibly startled.
He knew Lei Dong was confident, but he didn’t realize he was that confident.
He was not only unrestricted in his moves but was also encouraged to go all out?
It seemed that Lei Dong was planning to use him as a negative example to promote their sports university.
Before, Wu Bin was puzzled about why Huang Yan didn’t just edit a few promotional videos for the sports university; why did he have to enter the ring to practice?
Now Wu Bin finally understood; Huang Yan’s intention in having him enter the ring from the beginning was to let Lei Dong and others defeat him, create a surge in traffic and popularity, and possibly even hit the trending lists.
So at this moment, Wu Bin wasn’t seen as some student from the Agricultural University or an honorary student of the Sports University in their eyes. They were treating him like a hot commodity!
After understanding their plans, Wu Bin chuckled coldly but didn’t say much.
"Alright, I get it, go all out, right? Then Coach Lei, be careful."
Lei Dong stood confidently with his hands behind his back, not taking Wu Bin seriously at all.
The viewers in the live stream saw the scene and started to tease.
"Is this Lei guy too arrogant? Isn’t he afraid Wu Brother might actually be able to beat him?"
"Although I also find this Lei guy annoying, he is genuinely from a martial arts school and has real skills. Wu Brother might not necessarily win against him."
"Goddamn, I see it now, they’re doing this on purpose! They want to beat Wu Brother down right in front of us!"
"Wu Brother is still too young, he actually thought he was just going down to play with these coaches casually, but he didn’t expect they’d take it seriously."
The viewers all felt that Wu Bin was definitely about to be taught a lesson this time.
After all, who could have expected that Huang Yan, who had been all smiles just a moment ago, actually harbored ill intentions and had been plotting against Wu Bin all along?
It only makes sense that Huang Yan could become good friends with Xu Wenyao–they’re both very skilled at using others to achieve their own goals.
"Both sides are ready, begin!"
Fei Jiemin shouted to begin, and immediately stepped back.
The duel had begun, but Lei Dong still stood there with his hands behind his back, smiling and watching Wu Bin.
Not only did the viewers think Lei Dong was putting on too much of a show, but even some of the students from the sports university couldn’t stand it anymore.
"Isn’t Coach Lei being too conceited? After all, ’The boxing ring fears the vigor of youth.’ With his hands behind his back like that, could he even react in time if the other guy makes a move?"
"That’s what you don’t understand. That’s the confidence of a master. Coach Lei only does this to show off his high level. Just watch, I bet the moment the kid makes a move, Coach Lei will definitely subdue him with one move."
"I wouldn’t be surprised if Coach Lei subdued the kid, but what I’m worried about is that the kid can’t take a hit. I heard from my friend at the agricultural college that this kid is as fragile as a chip, just a touch and his whole body shatters. I’m really afraid he’ll end up dead on the ring."
Just when everyone was doubtful of Wu Bin, Wu Bin made his move.
Lei Dong’s eyes flashed, preparing to take action.
Suddenly, he felt a pain in his chest and then, like a kite with a broken string, he was directly kicked off the platform.
Seeing this, everyone was in shock.
"This... this... am I seeing things? Did Coach Lei just get kicked away?"
"Holy shit, is this for real? Why didn’t Coach Lei fight back?"
"A side kick! A single side kick took down Coach Lei?"
The university students were completely dumbfounded. They thought it was incredible, like they’d seen a ghost!
Keep in mind Lei Dong is a professional traditional martial arts coach. He’s been dealing with martial arts since he was a kid, it’s as natural to him as eating.
And now, he’s been taken out by Wu Bin with just one move?
The viewers in the live stream started cheering.
"Hahaha, Wu Brother is awesome! I knew Wu Brother wouldn’t let us down!"
"My God, am I dreaming? Did Wu Brother just take out a martial arts coach in a second?"
"Traditional martial arts is probably not going to be able to lift its head for a long time after this, that’s too awful, bro!"
