As long as there is still a fight, one must continue to attack.
Zhao Zilong, who had lost one of his legs, showed no sign of giving up.
The Overlord was thoroughly enraged; no crab in front of it had ever shown such tenacity, which was a blatant challenge to its authority as the Crab King!
It decided to finish off this opponent in one go.
The powerful pincers struck out once again.
But this time, Zhao Zilong did not dodge.
Yes, all the spectators saw it correctly; Zhao Zilong did not dodge at all.
He let the Overlord clamp down on his left pincer, then his right pincer struck out like lightning.
The Overlord had never encountered such a fighting style. The moment its powerful pincers clamped down on the opponent, its left pincer was also clamped.
The spectators were completely stunned. Sakura no longer had that indifferent, confident look; her eyes were wide open, and her face was filled with disbelief.
A fight to the death! This crab actually used a fight-to-the-death strategy!
In the world of fighting crabs, there was once an ancient legend about a type of crab that lived in the deep sea, which was hard to capture and hard to train into a fighting crab. But once trained, this crab was fierce and, when at a disadvantage in battle, would often resort to a mutually destructive strategy. Therefore, it was also called the "suicide crab."
Suicide crabs had not appeared for many years, and Sakura had always thought it was just a legend. But today, she saw it with her own eyes.
Both fighting crabs were firmly clamping down on each other's left pincers, refusing to let go. Although the Overlord was powerful, its opponent was a crab that had been exposed to dragon saliva.
The spiritual liquid from the dragon was now surging and releasing within Zhao Zilong's body, making his right pincer equally powerful.
A lake crab, whose size was less than a third of its opponent, was now locked in a fierce struggle with the strongest fighting crab, the Japanese spider crab, which had never been defeated.
"Come on, come on." Annie whispered.
"Come on, come on." Fat Mo, shaking his entire body, clenched his fists.
"Come on! Come on!" More and more people joined in the cheering.
Regardless of the outcome, Zhao Zilong had already become the winner. Today, he had created too many miracles.
He turned the impossible into the possible, turning the illusion into reality.
The dragon's spiritual liquid supported him, and he poured all his strength into his right pincer.
Even if he lost, he would lose with dignity!
"Come on!" Annie gripped Lei Xihuan's hand and shouted loudly.
"Come on." Lei Xihuan silently repeated in his heart, his hand tightly gripping Annie's.
"Come on!" Fat Mo even started jumping, and every part of his body shook with each jump.
Suddenly, the two fighting crabs separated.
On the sand, two large pincers lay.
They belonged to Zhao Zilong and the Overlord.
The cheers that had been ringing out suddenly fell silent.
Zhao Zilong... Zhao Zilong had really done it! He had really bitten off one of the Overlord's pincers!
Oh my God, what a miracle!
Although Zhao Zilong had also lost one of his pincers, he had used a mutually destructive, suicide-style strategy to inflict the same injury on his almost invincible opponent.
Jiang Bin felt dizzy and almost fainted.
His Overlord had been undefeated, invincible, but this time...
The pincer could regrow, but from now on, the Overlord could no longer be a Crab King.
This was a huge blow to both its fighting ability and its psyche.
He looked at Sakura, hoping to find a solution from her, but the first crab trainer had a stern expression.
At that moment, the Overlord in the fighting box could not believe what had happened.
It had actually lost one of its pincers?
It raised its remaining pincer, but it soon saw that its enemy was also waving its remaining pincer, showing no sign of retreat.
The Overlord involuntarily took a step back.
This once invincible Crab King was experiencing fear for the first time.
Moreover, what was even more unbelievable was that Zhao Zilong launched another attack.
This time, it was not out of duty as a fighting crab, but out of the instinct of an animal facing a great threat. The Overlord extended its damaged pincer.
Zhao Zilong did not dodge; he let his enemy clamp down on one of his legs, and he also clamped down on one of the Overlord's legs.
In a moment, the two fighting crabs separated again.
The sand now had two more crab legs, one belonging to Zhao Zilong and one to the Overlord.
Everyone was stunned; they had never seen such a fierce battle between fighting crabs.
The Overlord's damaged pincer was still moving, but it lacked the previous momentum.
Zhao Zilong was left with only six legs, but he did not give up and began to slowly approach the Overlord.
The Overlord's only pincer moved with less and less strength, and suddenly it stopped. Then it did something:
It turned and ran towards the edge of the fighting box.
In the world of fighting crabs, such an action meant only one thing:
It surrendered!
The Overlord, who had been undefeated and had never tasted defeat, surrendered!
Zhao Zilong did not pursue; instead, he began to crawl slowly in the sand, just like the Overlord had before:
This was his territory, and he was the king here!
"Damn it! Keep going! Keep going!" Jiang Bin could not accept what was happening and shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Clap, clap, clap."
Someone was the first to clap, and then more and more people joined in.
This was for Zhao Zilong, a lake crab that seemed to have no chance of winning, not even worthy of being an opponent, but had actually succeeded.
Annie hugged Lei Xihuan and screamed, her eyes red. She jumped up and kissed Lei Xihuan on the cheek.
This... This was Lei Xihuan's first kiss, and was it really lost in such a situation?
Lei Xihuan, who would not let himself be taken advantage of, kissed Annie on the cheek just as quickly.
Annie was stunned, her cheeks flushed, and she pushed Lei Xihuan away: "You dirty rogue!"
"Still not over, still not over!" Jiang Bin, like a gambler who had lost everything, shouted frantically and kept yelling at the Overlord in the fighting box: "You good-for-nothing, keep fighting, keep fighting!"
"Enough." Sakura stopped him and quieted the crowd, then looked at Lei Xihuan: "Mr. Lei, in ancient Japan, there was a legend about suicide crabs, also known as samurai crabs, which represented the samurai spirit of never giving up. I always thought it was just a legend, but today I saw it with my own eyes. Samurai crabs live in reef areas 300 to 700 meters deep, and yours is a lake crab, but it is a true samurai crab..."
He paused for a moment and then said with great respect: "I declare that you have won this crab fight."
You have won!
Another round of enthusiastic cheers rose.
You have won.
A crab that was destined to end up on a plate had won.
Just two simple words.
Sakura bowed to Lei Xihuan: "I must apologize to you and retract what I said earlier. My teacher once told me that one must be humble, especially in the world of fighting crabs, where you never know what kind of miracle a weak one can create. But as my fame grew and my victories increased, I became arrogant and forgot my teacher's words, leading to my incorrect judgment today, assuming that the Overlord would definitely win... Thank you and your Zhao Zilong for teaching me a lesson I will never forget."
"Mr. Sakura, it was just a stroke of luck." Lei Xihuan felt a bit embarrassed by the other's politeness.
"Then now." Sakura said very seriously: "I have lost, and I must honor my bet. What do you need? I have a substantial deposit in the bank, or my insights on training fighting crabs? Whatever you ask for, I will do it without hesitation."
Deposit? Insights on training crabs?
Lei Xihuan thought for a moment: "Mr. Sakura, I haven't decided yet..."
"The bet is always valid." Sakura handed his business card to Lei Xihuan: "When you decide what you want me to do, just give me a call, and I will return as soon as possible, no matter where I am."
This Sakura is quite interesting, really quite interesting.
"Mr. Jiang." Annie, feeling triumphant, would not let such a good opportunity pass: "The match is over, it's time to announce the final result, right?"
None of these people, except Lei Xihuan, cared about the 50,000 yuan prize; they valued the satisfaction of victory more.
Jiang Bin's face turned red. To announce publicly that Lei Xihuan had defeated him? Absolutely not!
He huffed and turned to leave.
"Too much of a sore loser, too much of a sore loser." Fat Mo grumbled.
"Fatso, you only realized he's like this now?" Annie seemed to have predicted Jiang Bin's actions and was not bothered at all.
In the end, it was Sakura who announced on behalf of Jiang Bin that Lei Xihuan's Zhao Zilong had won the crab fight and solemnly handed the 50,000 yuan prize to Lei Xihuan.
Lei Xihuan carefully took Zhao Zilong out of the fighting box and gently placed him in the foam box.
Although Zhao Zilong was severely injured, Lei Xihuan decided to keep him for life.
Fat Mo suddenly said: "Today was so much fun, I'll treat everyone."
