37 Negotiations


Luo Feng's heart skipped a beat.


On the brawler discussion board at 'House of Boundaries', there were many posts about grudges between fighters. For example, in China, the fighters at six headquarters are under government control and subject to the law! However, once they left the city and entered the monster area, there was no law to settle anything.


It was a place where fighters and monsters fought, a place without laws! All fighters walk on the border between life and death, so cases where fighters kill each other because of their conflict are common.


All the big dojos, governments, etc don't want to see this happen.


Fighters, is the wealth of man!


They were the only ones they had that could fight monsters; they did not want the fighters to have an internal feud. So from here comes 'Internal Negotiation' which 'completes' the argument. People have grudges, okay, let's finish it at the table to end it. This is another saying if there is absolutely no way to solve it.


"Luo Feng, you are still a beginner who has just entered the combat circle. It is best not to make enemies" head instructor Wu Tong smiled as he said, "You also need money when you start"


"okay"


Lu Feng nodded. If they can finish it, let it be, "Uncle Wu, I can't let go of Zhang Hao Bai so easily! If I am weak, then my legs and hands will break"


"But of course" Wu Tong nodded as he said, "if we don't let them bleed, they might think my Dojo of Limits is afraid of them"


"Uncle Wu, how much do you think I should offer?" asked Luo Feng. He didn't know the rules, so he thought it would be better to get some advice.


After pondering, Wu Tong said, "If it's just an ordinary person messing with you, then you shouldn't go past 50 million Chinese dollars! And Luo Feng, you are the elite of our Dojo of Limits, so you mustn't be too low either. No less than 10 million Chinese dollars! Between 10 to 50 million, you can choose numbers at random"


"OK" Luo Feng nodded his head as he considered his options.


"If you agree, then I will tell them to come tonight to meet us" Wu Tong laughed.


Okay, thanks uncle Wu, Luo Feng laughed while nodding.

Luo Feng first returned home to get rid of his "Nine Stage Thunder Blade" and then entered the internal network of 'Home of Limits' to try and find some information about the personal negotiations between fighters.


"Oh ... so it's like this"


"Reputation is also related to this payment money"


Luo Feng consecutively read through many posts and finally felt that he had an idea of what the negotiations were like tonight.


"Feng, it's time to eat" Gong Xin Lan's mother's voice sounded from downstairs.


"Come, mother"


Luo Feng turned off the electricity and then headed down.


In the living room downstairs, her father and mother were carrying dishes and bowls while the maid cooked.


"Where is Luo Hua?" luo Feng asked doubtfully, "he still hasn't returned?". Currently, there were two hired helpers, both of whom were around 40 years old. One of them was hired just to look after Luo Hua, as it would be more convenient for Luo Feng: with someone guarding his brother, he could get out more often.


"Your brother is in the lotus flower lake garden, he just called to let us know that he is coming soon" Luo Hong Guo's father said with a smile.


"Why did you go to that park all day?" asked Luo Feng.


Gong Xin Lan's mother laughed softly at the side: "Feng, your sister has a boyfriend"


"Female girlfriend?" Luo Feng was surprised. Although there are many disabled people in society these days, for example soldiers who fight in the army and return in a paralyzed condition for fighting monsters, married, and had children, but Luo Hua hadn't even been here for over a month.


In such a short time, in a relationship?


"Feng, don't listen to your mother. Your brother spent time with a girl, but they haven't been until then" Luo Hong Guo laughed.


"Who cares, it's good if he can establish a relationship" Luo Feng was happy inside. Whatever the outcome of this relationship, it is a life experience. This experience was good for him.

Yi-An* county Yang Zhou city, sky park sector.


*TL Note: If any of you actually remember from vol. 1 chapter 14~15, I miswrote the Zhi-An sector for the location of the sky garden sector (should be Yi-An. sorry about that)


"Uncle" Zhang Hao Bai looked at his uncle Zhang Ze Hu. Zhang Hao Bai passed these past days in a state of fear and nervousness. He was even afraid that someone from the security agency would come and seize him.


"Hu, as long as we can take care of Hao Bai, it's fine if we experience pain" Zhang Ze Long couldn't help but say it.


"Sister, rest assured!" Zhang Ze Hu was huge and muscular and he gave off a feeling of unparalleled ferocious beasts. Zhang Ze Hu grinned and showed his snow-white teeth, "Luo Feng's little rabbit, just a novice fighter! All he did was fight the weakest monster raised by the military to become a fighter, he had to know the rules! Those who should've caused no trouble, actually caused trouble .... hmph, tinkering with the Mountain Tiger*request death!"


* TL Note: This is basically his nickname that will be mentioned again later.


"All right, leave it to me, I'll go"


After waving, Zhang Ze Hu came out.


Outside there is a heavy hummer, six-wheeled, and has been renovated. There was even someone inside who waved and smiled as he shouted: "Sister Hu, ready?"


"Yup, go and pick up old Li then we'll head to the Dojo of Limits" Zhang Ze Hu got into the car and waved as he said.


"ALRIGHT!"


The hummer let out a low and powerful sound and quickly left the sky garden sector.


Around nightfall, in the lobby of the 2nd floor of the Ming-Yue sector Limit Hall of Yang Zhou city, Luo Feng and his group were there.


"Feng, what a coincidence. Your uncle Kong and big brother Chen are here" Wu Tong laughed loudly. Luo Feng also greeted the two people beside Wu Tong. One of them looked extremely thin and had a scar on his face that looked like it was splitting his face in two. Just looking at it causes fear in you.


The other man was a burly man who could be said to be enthusiastic just by looking at him.


"Sister Chen, uncle Kong" shouted Luo Feng.


These two people are not ordinary people. In the Limit Hall here in Yang-Zhou city, there were three warlord-level fighters: Chief Instructor Wu Tong, 'Fire Cannon' Chen Gu, and 'Hawk Blade' Kong Quan. Wu Tong had already retired from monster hunting, while Chen Gu's 'Fire Cannon' and Kong Quan's 'Hawk Blade' often left the city to hunt monsters.


These two people were prominent figures in the warrior circle in the Ming-Yue sector.


"Feng, we already know about the situation. Rest assured, we will defend you in this case!" laughing Fire Cannon Chen Gu, "Damn, no matter how arrogant these Thunder Dojo people are, they won't mess with us."


"Yes" Hawk Blade Kong Quan slightly nodded.


After a while -


The people from the Dojo of Limits and the Thunder Dojo sat on their respective sides in the lobby. There were at least 20 people on the side of the Dojo of Limits while there were only 8 people on the side of the Thunder Dojo.


"Wu Tong, in that case, this is indeed the fault of Hu's nephew" a large brute laughed loudly as he said, "but the nephew is only a child? What he understood, and he was just an ordinary person, not even a warrior, so there was no need to argue such a trivial matter"


"Old Li, don't bring those useless things" Wu Tong laughed as he shook his head, "No matter how uncertain we are about this case, you guys came here to negotiate right? Mountain Tiger, say something"


Zhang Ze Hu, who was called the "Mountain Tiger" in the warrior circle, used the two-handed giant machete*.


*TL Note: The first two characters for machete are �_ ⁇ and the nickname is �_ ⁇ ��. Since there was a mountain character in it, I decided to call him the Mountain Tiger (but now you see where his nickname comes from)


"Chief Instructor Wu" smiled Zhang Ze Hu as his gaze was fixed on Luo Feng, "For this case, we should let little Luo explain it himself. Little Luo, how should we settle this case in a way that satisfies you?"


"Shut up"


'Hawk Blade' Kong Quan snapped, "Luo Feng is a good brother in our Dojo of Limits, Little Luo? He was qualified to call her by her name as well"


Zhang Ze Hu panicked, Hawk Blade Kong Quan was a ruthless man in the warrior circle, not even Zhang Ze Hu wanted to anger him.


"Master Zhang Ze Hu" Luo Feng stood up and smiled, "This case has made many of my brothers stand up for me, so I am a bit embarrassed. But to my own mind ... hmph, Zhang Hao's Bai trying to break my arms and legs is a small matter, but he actually attacked my father, and it's asking for death!"


Shouted Luo Feng while glaring.


Zhang Ze Hu was startled and the fighters on the Dojo of Limits side laughed. This Zhang Ze Hu 'Mountain Tiger' is a senior fighter and advanced fighter, just a step away from the level of a warlord. Luo Feng actually dared to glare at him with such an attitude, which made the fighters on the side of the Dojo of Limits understand his bravery!


"Hmph, Luo Feng, so what do you want to do? Speak up!" Zhang Ze Hu was not amused and put on a bad face.


Zhang Ze Hu's anger? He really doesn't care about that. Just talking about this time, Luo Feng's body fitness level was already high for a medium-sized warrior, so he was approaching the level of an 'advanced warrior'. And with his spiritual power added there, he had at least already become a level 'beginner warlord'.


"One phrase, 50 million Chinese dollars. I, Luo Feng, will give you some face, and we can undo the case" Luo Feng smiled.


"You really have a big mouth, 50 million!" glaring at Zhang Ze Hu.


"The price is high" scowled the Thunder Dojo's chief instructor, Li.


Luo Feng just smiled and said nothing.


"The price is not expensive" smiled the Dojo of Limits' chief instructor, Wu Tong.


"Luo Feng, I will give you a price, 5 million! I'll give you 5 million and we'll drop the case and it'll still make me lose face. Or you don't give me, Zhang Ze Hu, any face!" Zhang Ze Hu looked at Luo Feng.


5 million?


The people on the side of the Dojo of Limits frowned, even if you try to give a little face to 'Fire Cannon' Chen Gu and Kong Quan's 'Hawk Blade', respectively, You should not offer such a low price. If the price is too low, you do not give any face!


"Or did I not give you any face?" Luo Feng glared, "Zhang Ze Hu, let me say something as well. 50 million, no less. If you get a one dollar discount, then be prepared to meet your nephew at the Security Agency!"
