997 My Turn On The Stage

(MC POV)

"Hey… You're acting real cocky there aren't you?"

Of course, some people who weren't happy they lost a lot of money from the tournament came to stop me the moment I left the viewing gallery.

And by some, I mean a really big group of them, even Trash Qing was part of the group.

I tilted my head at the old man who addressed me, "Cocky? If you haven't noticed, I've been pretty much keeping to myself. It's you people who have been constantly disturbing me, no?"

"Do you even understand the situation you're in?!"

"Ah, of course I do. I'm about to be very rich from possibly being one of the few people who bet on my disciples to win this tournament."

Several of them started cracking their knuckles to try and intimidate me.

"Listen here. We're all willing to let this be water under the bridge if you agree to give away your winnings to all of us. Otherwise, you might not even live to see that money handed to you, understand?"
