Hence, the three of them looked towards Sheldon at the same time. Satria asked, "Sheldon, do you have different opinions?"
Sheldon's face was expressionless as he said indifferently, "No, I'll do my best, but I won't risk my life."
"Well..." Hearing this, Satria frowned immediately.
Madelina, who was standing on the side, immediately growled, "Sheldon, are you still a man? It's fine if you don't avenge your girlfriend, but now, you don't even want to fight. If that's the case, you can just quit and don’t drag us down."
Fairoe also said discontentedly, "Sheldon, if you have any thoughts or plans, we can discuss it. Don't express your discontent in this way."
Sheldon was expressionless. He said, "I do not have any discontent. I also agree with Mr.
Cao's arrangements. It's just that, as I said, I cannot risk my life. At the very least, I will not risk my life now. I must preserve my strength."
"You..." Madelina was furious and almost wanted to hit him.
Satria also frowned. He looked at Sheldon and said, "Sheldon, you..."
Sheldon did not wait for him to finish. He said directly, "I insist. If you disagree, I can quit."
"You..."
In that case, it was impossible to kick him out.
Satria suppressed his anger and said, "Alright, I agree. You can choose not to fight to the death, but you must exhaust your opponent. If you dare to deceive me, I will not let you off."
Sheldon said coldly, "Don't worry. I won't risk my life, but I'll do my best. After all, I’m still a national representative."
"I'll report it," Satria said coldly, "You can go next!"
"Yes!" Sheldon responded and turned around to warm up.
Behind him, Madelina looked at Sheldon's back and spat with disdain. "What a coward!" Not long after, Sheldon stepped into the ring. After a round of battle, because his opponent had been exhausted, he lost to Sheldon.
However, when he was about to take on another opponent, Sheldon only battled for less than three minutes. He felt that he was no match for the opponent, and he took the initiative to admit defeat. Then, under the surprised gazes of the crowd, he jumped out of the ring.
Such a scene shocked the audience in the seats, and they began to talk about it.
After all, the previous players would do their best no matter the outcome, and basically, they left injured.
Sheldon, on the other hand, looked like he still had energy left in him. He didn't even have any serious injuries. Coming off the stage just like that naturally caused many spectators to be confused.
"What's with that Sheldon? He looks like he can still fight. Why did he admit defeat?"
"Does he have internal injuries?"
"It doesn't look like it!"
Faced with these doubts, Satria didn't cover up for Sheldon and told the leaders the whole story.
Instantly, in the VIP seats, the expressions of the higher-ups darkened instantly.
The person who had just hidden behind jumped out again and looked at Saxen. "Mr. Chung, is this the practitioner chosen from your Martial Arts Committee? He has no awareness at all. How can such a person serve the country and be loyal?"
"Sheldon may have his considerations. I believe in him." Saxen merely said that sentence and did not say anything more.
The audience burst into a discussion.
However, as Madeline entered the arena, everyone's attention was temporarily diverted.
She launched an attack as soon as she entered the ring. She was not afraid of injuries at all, and with her fierce attacks, she managed to defeat two opponents in a row.
In the end, she was defeated by the third challenger.
However, when the crowd looked at Madelina, whose face was full of blood, they burst into a round of applause.
