《Picking Up Fragments》 Chapter 1 : The Fragments That Others Cant See "Little Jiang, hurry, the poison! What are you standing there for?" "Oh my, Jiang Siming, did you disconnect? Why are you running in the poison zone?" "Forget about this newbie, I''ll take Wang Zong to escape the poison first. Wang Zong, sit behind me, I''ll cover you from bullets!" ... Listening to the conversation through cheap earphones, Jiang Siming sat dazed in the inte caf¨¦, staring nkly at hisputer screen. Jiang Siming had graduated from university three years ago and was working as a salesperson in a real estatepany. Today, he was ying games with two colleagues and their team manager, Wang Zong. Compared to the other two colleagues, Jiang Siming''s gaming skills were rather poor; he was there mostly to carry ammunition as a medic. In fact, he wasn''t skilled in the game and didn''t know how to tter, so his presence in the game was extremely low, almost negligible... However, at this moment, Jiang Siming''sputer screen hadn''t crashed, and the game hadn''t disconnected. It''s just that in Jiang Siming''s eyes, there was something different in his game screen. Jiang Siming saw a shing white light inside in the previously visited "P City". At first, he thought he was mistaken or that there was something wrong with the screen, but after confirming multiple times, Jiang Siming did see it. "Hey buddy, do you see this light?" Jiang Siming pointed to the white light in theputer screen, which was quite bright. "There''s no light, are you seeing things?" he asked a friend next to him, also ying the game, but the friend shook his head and said, "No, what light?" "It''s this small white light, can''t you see it? It''s really bright." Jiang Siming couldn''t believe it. Could it be that there was something wrong with his eyes? Cataracts? Did he need Sharpeyes eye drops? "Where''s the light? I think you''re hallucinating, buddy. Hurry, run out of the poison, you''re about to be killed by it." The guy beside him kindly reminded him and denied seeing the light again. Jiang Siming felt puzzled. To confirm he wasn''t mistaken, he changed direction and headed into "P City." Soon, he identified the source of the light, inside a three-story building. This was already the third wave of poison, and there wasn''t a single person in P City; everyone had run out of the poison. Jiang Siming wasn''t worried about people inside the city, so he rushed into this three-story residential building with the shing light. On the top floor of the third floor, Jiang Siming was stunned. A piece of white, musical note-shaped fragment floated quietly in the corner, emitting a bright white light, very conspicuous. But this clearly didn''t belong to the items that coulde out in the game of yerUnknown''s Battlegrounds (PUBG), right? "Hey, hey, buddy, look! Is this fragment a new item in the game?" Jiang Siming shouted excitedly, but the guy beside him impatiently leaned over and looked carefully for a moment, speechless: "Where did this fragmente from? There''s nothing in this room, are you messing with me?" "It''s such a big fragment, shining brightly! Right here!" Jiang Siming pointed at the white musical note fragment on theputer screen, which looked pretty good. "It''s not a fragment! Are you sick?" The person disregarded Jiang Siming, considering him a fool. "How is that possible? How can''t he see it?" Jiang Siming couldn''t believe it. Could it be that only he could see this thing? Curious, Jiang Siming decided to first see what this fragment was all about. Approaching it and pressing the pick-up key, he heard a ding in his mind. "Picked up ''98k Mastery'' fragment *1 (1/1), fragment quantity full, can be used directly." "Use it!" Without considering his shock, Jiang Siming vaguely realized that something was wrong. At the moment when Jiang Siming chose to use the fragment, he suddenly felt a surge of spiritual energy in his mind. Subsequently, Jiang Siming was horrified to find that there were many tricks about using the 98k rifle in his brain¡ªquick aim, pre-firing, moving targets, adjusting the height... and many more details about this sniper rifle in the game. And he happened to have a 98k rifle on him. He intended to test it under a tree, but Wang Jun and the others were already urging him impatiently. "What''s wrong with you, Little Jiang? Are you being dumb? Hurry up and get out of the poison and bring the medkit to me!" The manager yelled at him, and Jiang Siming suppressed his annoyance at being scolded, obediently got out of the poison as instructed. He was no longer the ''sunshine school grass Jiang Siming'' admired by all the girls during his student days¡ªfull of heroic spirit and carefree attitude. The cruelty of the workce far exceeded his imagination. Although he wanted to retort, the previous lessons of confrontation with the boss had already made Jiang Siming suffer. Otherwise, as a talented graduate from a prestigious university, he wouldn''t have ended up as a mere junior salesperson. Forcing his way out of the poison zone, Jiang Siming hadn''t even had time to use the medkit when his two colleagues urged him to hand over all the medical supplies. "Taking the meds won''t help you, little Jiang. You stay beside us and cover with your gun. If anyone falls, you revive immediately, got it?" Wang Junmanded in a domineering tone. "Okay." Jiang Siming casually agreed and left it at that. He handed over all the meds, keeping himself at half-health. However, he didn''t give away his 98k. It wasn''t that they didn''t want it; it was that they all had one. So Jiang Siming was lucky to keep a sniper rifle without handing it over. Earlier, when he found a Mini 14, they had taken it away from him. But unfortunately, this 98k only had a red dot sight, equivalent to a basic setup. In the past, Jiang Siming could''ve used this 98k as a celebratory firework, making noise but not hitting anyone. However, now, Jiang Siming was confident. Even with just a red dot sight, he could eliminate opponents! "I''ve spotted someone! Southeast, heading our way!" Colleague Zhou Qiang shouted. "Block them. Wang Zong, your shooting skills are the best. I''ll go ahead and distract them, you finish them off." Another colleague, Yuan Bing, began buttering up again. Jiang Siming was speechless internally, unable to understand how they could exaggerate someone who couldn''t even hit close range shots into a sharpshooter. But now, the enemies were approaching, so Jiang Siming set aside his sarcasm and quietly waited with his 98k for his prey. Soon, a fully geared team came from the southeast, but they were still a bit far away. When Zhou Qiang and others saw the opponents'' equipment from a distance, their expressions became solemn. The opponents were all wearing level-three armor! Moreover, one of them was wearing a striking ck helmet¡ªa level-three helmet! "Damn! Their equipment is too good. This might be tough." Level-three armor could withstand many bullets; instantly eliminating them would be very difficult. Bang! At that moment, a bullet broke the silence, fired by Wang Jun. Unable to contain himself, Wang Jun thought he could eliminate one instantly and shot first, revealing their position. Zhou Qiang and Yuan Bing were internally cursing but obviously couldn''t say it aloud. They just shouted to start firing and joined in shooting. Their hasty shooting had minimal effect. They didn''t even take down a single person, allowing the enemy team to react and take cover quickly. It was evident that the opposing team was skilled; they handled smoke grenades and threw frags in a systematic manner. On the other hand, Wang Jun''s group was thrown into chaos by the precise grenade throws, with Wang Jun almost getting killed. "Should we leave? Wang Zong, we can''t handle this..." Zhou Qiang shivered on the ground, frantically using meds and suggesting to Wang Jun. "Okay... These guys are lucky with all the level-three gear they found. We''ll get themter." Wang Jun dropped ''tough talk'' and turned to run away. Chapter 2 : Quick-scope! On the other side, where Wang Jun''s team had set up an ambush, there echoed casual and yful banter. "These guys are so bad, they can''t even camp and ambush properly, haha." "Leave these few to me." "Wow, Weishen, you''re overdoing it, training guns on newbies. I don''t care, I want a kill too. TNT''s health is halved, my heart aches..." "Don''t worry, I''ll leave one for you; I''ll consider your livestream impact." "Hehe, that sounds cool~ Brothers in the livestream, did you see that? Today, our team has a member from the professional team 4AM leading us. Betting starts now, how many kills will our team achieve!" "They seem to be running; I''ll take the lead." ... Weishen confidently took charge, feeling supremely self-assured against this weak team, as if those four opponents were insignificant. As Weishen charged up the slope, he caught sight of thest one, Wang Jun, leaving. He swiftly raised his M416 assault rifle. Just as he was about to open fire, a crisp gunshot exploded near his ear. And then, he copsed to the ground. "Sniper! Northwest, on the mound!" The moment he was sniped, Weishen knew the opponent''s position and ryed it to his teammates. At the same time, he was taken aback. He had barely hesitated for 0.5 seconds, and yet, this person had instantly sniped him. Was it a lucky shot or a hidden expert? "Terrifying! So scary~~" The girl in the team let out her usual pig-like squeal. The other two teammates remained calm¡ªone deployed smoke while the other covered Weishen to heal him. The adaptability of a professional team was evident. However, to their surprise, the opponent didn''t bother about Weishen lying there. Another head peeked out from behind the mound. One of 4AM''s members, Xiao Xingmu, was about to shoot, but the opponent retracted instantly and fired in the interim. "Isn''t this funny? Didn''t even have enough time to scope in, instant snipe?" Xiao Xingmu sneered disdainfully. But just as he finished speaking, he seemed cursed, falling to the ground. The level-two helmet he had on with its camo skin shattered, leaving a bloody hole in the center of his forehead. "Damn!" This time, all three from 4AM swore simultaneously. Real instant sniping??? And at such an incredible speed! Not even North America''s sniper god, girmmmz, is this quick! "Smoke, throw smoke, don''t engage! Something''s wrong!" Weishen instantlymanded. Another member of 4AM immediately obeyed, hiding behind a tree, ready to revive, and deployed smoke. Meanwhile, the female team member hiding behind a rock was trembling, feeling helpless. It seemed like only her pig-like squeals could slightly calm her nerves. "I just picked up a level-three helmet, I don''t want to die~~ This rock corner should keep me safe, right..." Her words, in Hunan dialect, somewhat eased the tense atmosphere. "Tuan Tuan, stop shouting! Come help me and pass me the level-three helmet. I''ll take this guy down!" Weishen said seriously, his face stern. "Okay,ing, big bro, don''t hit me, I''m just a delivery~~" While shouting, the girl summoned her courage and ran towards Weishen. Though scared, she knew that if Weishen died, their game would be over; their hard work would be ruined. Thankfully, the smoke obscured their movements, and the girl ran through it without getting shot. "Puff puff, I''m here to save you!" The girl bent down to rescue Weishen, her voice sweet and cute, resembling an anime character, eliciting bothughter and relief. Rising up, healing himself, Weishen put the girl''s level-three helmet on himself. Confident again, Weishen changed position, pulling out his M24 sniper rifle with an eight-time scope, observing every movement on the other side. In his scope, a person''s gun barrel had just emerged. Weishen was confident he could take them down as soon as they showed themselves! "As soon as you show yourself, you''re dead." Weishen stared at the screen, his finger on the trigger. As the smoke cleared, Jiang Siming hiding behind the mound couldn''t resist peeking to check the situation. Earlier, due to the smoke, he couldn''t aim at the target unless he used wallhacks. He had intended to throw a grenade, but Wang Jun''s team had already looted his backpack. All he had left were bullets and smoke grenades. Bang! The moment he peeked, Jiang Siming felt a bullet hit him, and his health bar instantly dropped by half, leaving just a sliver of health. Terrified, he quickly retreated, thankful that the bullet didn''t hit his head; instead, it hit his level-two vest, absorbing much of the damage. Otherwise, being at less than full health, he would''ve been a dead body. "Damn! Didn''t hit the head!" Weishen was a bit annoyed but felt it wasn''t a big deal; he hadplete control of the situation. "As soon as you show up, you''re dead!" Just as Weishen finished speaking, on the other side of the mound, a head popped out, then rapidly withdrew, and another shot was fired in the meantime. Thud! A muffled sound as the bullet hit flesh. Weishen noticed that his level-three helmet had a hole in it, and his health bar was now only a fifth full. Startled, Weishen hurriedly crouched to heal himself. If not for the level-three helmet, he would''ve been sniped again just now. "Is this guy cheating?" Xiao Xingmu was suspicious. However, Yongyuan disagreed, saying, "Cheating disappeared a year ago; Bluehole and Tencent have strong anti-cheat mechanisms. Even if there''s a slight issue with an ount, it gets banned instantly. Ny-five percent of mouse macros get banned, let alone this instant sniping cheat, which has vanished long ago." After this exnation, everyone found it usible. While they were discussing, the sound of the 98K rifle echoed again, and Xiao Xingmu, hiding behind a tree, fell again! Feeling a bit rxed, Xiao Xingmu carelessly peeked out to locate Jiang Siming''s position and got hit by another sniper bullet. This time, before he could crawl back, Jiang Siming fired again and finished him off. "This is unbelievable!" Xiao Xingmu was furious, almost mming his keyboard. Clearly, he was extremely unwilling. Weishen looked serious; his intuition told him that the opponent was a highly skilled sniper! "Why did he show his head so quickly?" Yongyuan wondered. "It means he''s low. I''ll cover you; you two rush him," Weishen said, feeling a bit embarrassed, anticipating what the live chat would say about their four-vs-one tactic. "Okay, I''ll charge with you," Yongyuan immediately rushed up without hesitation, and the female team member obediently followed. The two charged ahead, while Weishen covered them; the enemy was already weakened, and victory seemed assured in this showdown. Chapter 3 : 4AM Team Wiped Out! Despairingly, the opponent''s head appeared again, instantly retracting, not giving Weishen any time to react. Moreover, every time the opponent showed their head, the position was different, and by the time Weishen adjusted his aim, the opponent had already moved back. This time, the target for the opponent''s quick-scope was Yongyuan, but luckily, Yongyuan was on the move, and the opponent''s shot hit the chest, not the head. Just as Yongyuan breathed a sigh of relief, the opponent appeared again like a ghost, a bullet flew once more, creating a ssh of blood, hitting Yongyuan twice and leaving him severely injured. If it wasn''t for his Level three armor, he would have been down. "Geez, this person is terrifying, have we ranked up to high elo?" Yongyuan muttered while bravely charging ahead, feeling pressured and relying on Weishen to deal with the opponent. However, reality didn''t match their hopes. The opponent''s urate quick-scoping appeared again. Three bullets took Yongyuan down. Frustrated, Weishen fired two shots but missed. Annoyed, he switched to his rifle, aiming wildly at the opponent''s hill, hoping for a lucky hit. Unfortunately, luck wasn''t on his side today; not a single shotnded and only managed to annoy the opponent. Treating Weishen as a minor nuisance, the opponent popped up andnded a shot, hitting Weishen''s Level three helmet. Weishen, who hadn''t fully recovered, couldn''t withstand it and fell, unwilling to ept his defeat. Only the female team member remained on the scene. "Waaah! Don''t kill me~~ Big bro~~~" The female team member''s pleading sounded cute but was amusing at this moment. Despite her wailing, Jiang Siming, calmly gave the opponent a bullet, ending the battle. 4AM team, plus a well-known female anchor, all taken down by a stranger in less than a minute. "Little Jiang, why haven''t you run away yet... this..." Wang Jun was about to vent his frustration on Jiang Siming for not killing someone, but he nced at the fluctuating information in the top right corner and stopped mid-sentence. Then, Jiang Siming heard sounds of chairs scraping from the other side of the inte cafe. Zhou Qiang and Yuan Bing rushed to Jiang Siming''sputer. "Jiang Siming, did you use cheats?" "You alone sniped a whole team? Is that for real?" The two tried to find evidence that Jiang Siming used cheats but eventually found nothing. Reluctantly, they returned to their seats, continuing their game. Jiang Siming kept on gaming, excitement lighting up his face. Not because he killed so many people but because he saw two of the four loot boxes dropped glowing! Just like the 98K fragment from before, these glows appeared in two of the boxes! He hurriedly ran over and checked. "Received fragment [Rifle Mastery] *1 (1/1), fragment quantity full, can be used directly." "Received fragment [Voice Actor Skill] *1 (1/3), fragment quantity not full, cannot be used for now." He immediately used [Rifle Mastery], and a surge of heat flowed into his mind. Jiang Siming found himself flooded with insights on using rifles in PUBG. Tips on recoil control, 4x scope control, 6x scope control, burst firing insights... and more. This excited Jiang Siming, his blood boiling. Such bizarre urrences, his game was different from others! How could this be? Jiang Siming remembered that when he went to buy cigarettes earlier, there was a thunderstorm nearby. He didn''t pay much attention as he felt a sudden shock but didn''t think much of it. He went back to the game without a second thought. Thinking now, that must have been the reason. Skills can emerge in the game! And looking at this [Voice Actor Skill], it obviously isn''t just game-rted skills; there might be other things too! Do other games have this? To validate this evidence, Jiang Siming made up a reason and quit the current game, making an excuse to Wang Jun and the others, and left. He needed to change inte cafes; otherwise, Wang Jun and the others would keep pulling him into ying PUBG. After changing cafes and starting theputer, Jiang Siming opened League of Legends but yed several rounds without any changes. He yed more than a dozen other games, from MOBAs to FPS shooters and even MMORPGs, but nothing unusual happened. Switching back to PUBG, after killing only four people, Jiang Siming found that musical note fragment again! And it was golden! "Received fragment [5000 Credits] *1 (1/1), fragment quantity full, can be used directly." "It seems like only PUBG drops these? And there''s money!" This discovery delighted Jiang Siming. Skills to gain and money to earn; it was an unimaginable stroke of luck. He chose to use it, and instantly, a bundle of red bills appeared on Jiang Siming''s desk. He quickly stuffed it into his pocket. Jiang Siming was excited like a fool. He immersed himself in PUBG, spending the whole day ying. As time passed, Jiang Siming gradually understood the probability of fragment drops. Fragments would spawn at various points, but the chances were slim. After dozens of rounds, Jiang Siming only found one. Another drop probability was from killing! Fragments had a higher chance of appearing in enemy boxes if more people were killed. Chicken dinners could also yield fragments, but it wasn''t that simple; while Jiang Siming was skilled, he was often outmaneuvered, making it hard to win. Jiang Siming spent the entire afternoon in PUBG, and he got four fragments in total. Two fragments were gold and both Credits, totaling 10,000. The other two fragments were [Voice Actor Skill] and [Vehicle Mastery]. Vehicle Mastery only required one fragment to use, but Jiang Siming stillcked one fragment for the Voice Actor Skill. By evening, Jiang Siming was exhausted and temporarily logged off to get some sleep. While Jiang Siming spent the afternoon collecting fragments, discussions about his previous sniper gamey caused a stir in the streamingmunity. A well-known entertainment anchor on the Douyu tform, with millions of fans and a rising star in PUBG, Little Tuantuan, and a famous yer from a top-tier professional team, Weishen, along with his two skilled teammates. They were wiped out by a random yer, who used only a single 98K, and upon reviewing the rey, they found that the 98K only had a red dot sight! This discovery sparked heated debates among the fans of the two teams about whether Jiang Siming was cheating. Chapter 4 : Unemployed Wanderer The debate continued until the evening. "Alright, everyone calm down. I uploaded this person''s ount to the monitoring station this afternoon, and they''ve replied now." In the live stream, Weishen opened the reply email from the Fengxun Technical Station. In front of millions ofizens, the email astonishingly read: "ount shows no abnormalities." "Wow, this guy really seems fine, huh?" Xiao Xingmu stood beside Weishen, somewhat dumbfounded. Weishen nodded, muttering, "I never thought he had an issue from the start. Now that I''ve checked, turns out he''s a super skilled sniper." Yongyuan, standing nearby, marveled, "His sniping skills are even better than Gusun''s." "Enough about this Gusun. Let''s try contacting this ount and see if we can recruit them to our team. We happen to need a sniper," Weishen focused on the ID "Ming," a fire igniting in his eyes. This year''s PCI is about to start, and their team needs a stronger yer injection. PCI is as important to PUBG as the Worlds are to League of Legends. ... The next day, Jiang Siming arrived at the office as usual, but Wang Jun, Zhou Qiang, and Yuan Bing werete. They''d pulled an all-nighter ying PUBG and woke upte. They were unfortunate enough to be caught by the district manager, who gave them a scolding. However, Wang Jun shifted the me onto Jiang Siming, iming that Jiang had taken them out drinkingst night, causing their tardiness. "Little Jiang, cover for us during lunch, I''ll treat you. Otherwise, you know the consequences," Wang Jun whispered to Jiang Siming. Wang Jun often made things difficult for Jiang Siming because his pretty girlfriend previously shown a strong interest in Jiang Siming, causing him to feel jealous. "Reporting to the general manager!" Jiang Siming stood up in solidarity. Wang Jun''s face lit up with a smug smile, but the next moment, his expression froze. "Report, I didn''t take Mr. Wang out for drinksst night. They stayed up all night gaming and werete by themselves. It''s not my fault!" "Jiang Siming, are you looking for trouble?" Wang Jun''s lips twitched, his eyes filled with malice. But Jiang Siming wasn''t fazed; he had no desire to continue. He''d tolerated things before out of necessity but was now standing tall, bolstered by the game fragments he''d acquired. Why endure such injustice? In reality, despite years of struggling in society, Jiang Siming''s character had never changed. He had merely suppressed his edges for the sake of survival. "I don''t want to continue working here. I''m reporting Manager Wang Jun and Zhou Qiang and Yuan Bing''s behaviors and actions in the subsidiary over the past six months to the general manager." Jiang Siming stood up, ced the resignation letter prepared long ago on the table, and left confidently without a nce at them. The district manager wanted to retain him, but Jiang Siming insisted on leaving. Frustrated, the manager vented his anger on Wang Jun and the others. Returning home, Jiang Siming felt a wave of relief. Shortly after arriving, he received a delivery¡ªa set ofputer equipment he''d ordered the night before had arrived that morning. Starting today, his mission and goal were to fulfill his lifelong dream with the help of PUBG. Having previously worked at an electronics store, Jiang Siming quickly set up theputer. He downloaded the system, updated drivers, debugged theputer, and downloaded games¡ªall done within the morning. Theputer was of moderate configuration, costing 5000 Credits. Despite earning 15,000 Credits from PUBG the day before, Jiang Siming refrained from spending too much for now. The family conditions weren''t great¡ªhis parents'' health wasn''t good, and he had a younger sister in junior high school. The family''s burden was quite heavy. Otherwise, Jiang Siming wouldn''t have sumbed so easily to societal pressure. For now, he pushed aside these thoughts and logged back into the game. Jiang Siming decisively selected a solo game. His self-configuredputer felt much better than the ones at the inte cafe. "Fragments, fragments, I want fragments!" Amid his chatter, Jiang Siming entered the game and immediately parachuted after the ne took off. From the sky, Jiang Siming could overlook the entire map. If there were fragments refreshed, he could spot them from above. "There it is!" Excitedly, Jiang Siming noticed a white light in a peripheral area of the map¡ªa wilderness point. Spawned fragments like this were hard toe by. After dozens of games, one might not encounter one. Yet today, the first game yielded such luck¡ªan auspicious start! Ecstatic, Jiang Siming flew down toward the wilderness point. Meanwhile, in the live stream room of Douyu, another popr female streamer, known as Dumb Little Sister, who had earlier ascended as the top PUBG female streamer on the tform, exuded an active atmosphere. "Today, I''m on fire! Wasn''t my control of the M4 amazing just now? Let me tell you, I just secured sixth ce, and this time, I''m going for the chicken dinner!" In the streaming room, through the camera, a beautiful girl who appeared innocent was speaking confidently. Who could have imagined that this sweet and innocent-looking girl was actually aplete tomboy, often embodying a strong masculine vibe? Sometimes she pretended to be cute and flirtatious, which led her fans to jokingly call her "olddy," "coquettish queen," "Douyu''s top stewardess"... Regarding her ''untruements,''izens didn''t believe her at all. "You win chicken, I''ll eat poop. Promise." "How did you get sixth ce without any skills? A cowardly y!" "Are you and Little Tuantuan besties? Both blowing hot air." "Let''s have a betting match, and I''ll make you cry!" Seeing thesements, Dumb Little Sister felt a pang in her chest. "Alright! Alright! Don''t regret it, everyone! Bets are closed!" Dumb Little Sister angrily closed the bets. Looking at the betting results, she had received 5000 fish balls for her chicken victory, while over 600,000 fish balls were wagered against her. If she lost this round, she''d be cleaned out. Chapter 5 : Voice Actor Skill To fulfill her promise, Dumb Little Sister abandoned those city areas. She even decisively gave up the wild areas near the city and targeted a distant, small, wild spot. "Tsk tsk, so timid." "It''s alright, it''s just a bit of struggle." "Am I seeing this right? Are there really others in such a remote ce?" "Haha, indeed! Someone''s heading there too!" "Dumb Little Sister, you''re in trouble. Congrattions on truly getting the first ce, but in reverse." Dumb Little Sister saw it too, but she was in a difficult situation; being almost there, she couldn''t change direction. There was only this one wild area nearby. If she changed now, she''d end up in an open field, vulnerable to attacks. "Screw it! I won''t believe it. Alone, I can still handle it!" With determination, Dumb Little Sister bravely jumped down. There were only two rooms; she chose therger one and ran in, hoping to grab a gun and fight. Unfortunately, luck wasn''t on her side. There wasn''t a single gun in therge room. Instead, in the small shack where Jiang Simingnded, there was an UMP submachine gun. She could already hear Jiang Siming reloading anding towards therger house, leaving Dumb Little Sister terrified. Quickly, she opened the area voice chat and pleaded, "Big brother, please don''t shoot me? I don''t have a gun! Wahh!" "Damn it! Old woman breaking the rules! Shamelessly acting cute!" "Hope this guy is straight and kills her!" "The old woman''s acting cute again. But why am I feeling embarrassed and blushing? I''m too young; I can''t resist temptation." Since Jiang Siming hadn''t opened the area voice chat, he didn''t hear her and went upstairs. Just when he was about to take action, Dumb Little Sister quickly made a game gesture¡ªa gesture pleading for mercy. Jiang Siming chuckled upon seeing this; the guy was too pathetic over a game. Jiang Siming didn''t mind him for now, heading to another room and picking up a white fragment that only he could see. "Picked up [Voice Actor Skill] *1 (3/3), fragment count is full, can be used directly." What luck! It was precisely the missing voice actor fragment. Jiang Siming immediately used it. A warm current flowed through his throat, from there to his nose, and in a short while, he recovered. Jiang Siming intended to say a few words to test, but he noticed the guy was still kneeling there. He activated the voice chat and said with a wry smile, "Do you have to? I didn''t n on killing you. You can leave." Upon saying this, not only did the other guy react, even Jiang Siming himself was surprised. Gentle as jade, eloquent, and maic. His voice was like a pot of warm, matured green plum wine; after the alcohol and sugar fully fermented, it erupted upon tasting. Under this effect, everyone seemed to see a long-haired, beautiful man stepping out of ancient-styleics, robes fluttering, long sword singing! They say Japanese voice actors are the best, but Jiang Siming felt they were just so-so! Dumbfounded, Dumb Little Sister stayed still, sharing the same thoughts as her fans in the live stream. "Oh my! This voice! So soothing!" "What''s going on? Did I just hear Natsume Takashi from ''Natsume''s Book of Friends''?" "No! I think it''s Mephisto Pheles from ''Blue Exorcist''!" "How can a guy''s voice sound so good? Not exaggerating, I''ve been captivated." Dumb Little Sister and her audience had the same thoughts. With a voice this captivating, especially from a man, she really had no resistance! For the show''s effect, she''d often interact with her audience, even joining guilds to find gamers with good voices. She''d heard hundreds of nice voices. But she swore that this was the most perfect voice she''d ever heard! It fulfilled all her fantasies about male idols! "You... can you say it again, please?" Shyly, Dumb Little Sister asked, but when she turned around, she realized the extremely captivating voice man had already left. Not willing to miss such a treasure of a voice, Dumb Little Sister immediately ran downstairs, looking for Jiang Siming''s figure. Seeing Jiang Siming about to leave, she ran over, not afraid that he might change his mind and kill her. Even if she were killed by the owner of such a captivating voice, she''d willingly sacrifice herself. The reward would be listening to him speak a little more. "Big brother, big brother, please don''t go~" Jiang Siming was a bit surprised; he didn''t expect this person to be a girl. "What do you want? I said I wouldn''t kill you. Go away, if fate allows, we''ll meet in the final circle." Ignoring her entirely, Jiang Siming ran towards the safe zone. Chapter 6 : Sycophant Dumb Little Sister really followed closely behind Jiang Siming, never leaving his side, and transformed into a chatterbox, constantly initiating interactions with Jiang Siming. "Little brother, what''s your name?" "Little brother, is your voice real or are you using a sound card?" "Little brother, can I have your WeChat?" "Little brother..." Jiang Siming was annoyed by the questions, really wanting to mute the area voice chat. But every time, she persisted and he eventually gave in. While running through the game zones, they searched some deserted houses and shops. Dumb Little Sister hadpletely be Jiang Siming''s sidekick. Whatever she found, she would ask Jiang Siming if he wanted it. Her goal was simply to get Jiang Siming to speak more. This tactic worked wonders, never failing. Every time Jiang Siming replied, she beamed with joy. The olddy''s face blossomed with a spring-like smile, making her viewers get goosebumps. "Wow! Little brother, I found a Kar98k! And an 8x scope, here you go~" "Uh, thank you." Faced with the kindness, Jiang Siming didn''t refuse, simply thanking her. With a sniper rifle, he could kill more efficiently. This would also speed up collecting fragments. "Uh, then can you tell me your name now, little brother?" Dumb Little Sister tried to dig deeper. "Jiang Siming, ''Siming'' as in ''destiny'' and ''bright.''" After taking someone else''s goodies, Jiang Siming couldn''t ignore her any longer and told her his name. "Little brother, with a name that sounds so nice, you must be super handsome." Dumb Little Sister became a sycophant, earningughter and teasing from the live audience. "Olddy, can you promise not to be a sycophant? Are voice actors good-looking? Don''t joke!" "Sycophancy ends up with nothing!" "Dumb Dumb , you brag so beautifully, but being a sycophant looks so pathetic." "Haha, who would''ve thought that mighty Dumb Little Sister would be a sycophant? Ha-ha-ha, eye-opening." Faced with the teasing, Dumb Little Sister felt a bit embarrassed despite her thick skin. Luckily, another yer appeared, diverting attention from the topic. "Little brother, there are people driving across the street! Should we run?" Dumb Little Sister suggested, not wanting to fight. Because if Jiang Siming died, she''d have to part ways with him. "We''ve been waiting for someone toe." Jiang Siming, who was eager for fragments, couldn''t pass up this chance. He wanted Dumb Little Sister''s head! But since it was a girl, he hesitated to act. "Then let me help you divert their attention? You can collect heads from behind." Dumb Little Sister suggested. "No need. There''s no one I can''t kill." Jiang Siming''s confident voice echoed. Although his voice was still incredibly attractive, Dumb Little Sister couldn''t help but smile wryly. Not just her, but the millions of viewers felt the same way. "Acting so cool! Do you think you''re someone special?" "Laughable. This guy seems like someone who can''t walk past a woman without looking back, now he''s bragging." "Waiting to be proven wrong, been irritated by this kind for so long." "If I were surrounded by this kind of voice, I''d be even less principled than Dumb Little Sister!" Most people thought that choosing such a casual spot uponnding couldn''t possibly be a skilled yer. "Well then... let''s attack together. I have grenades... Let''s wait until they get closer, then..." Before Dumb Little Sister could finish, she heard a gunshot nearby. It was Jiang Siming using the Kar98k. Internally, Dumb Little Sister sighed bitterly. Little brother, you''re too confident. The opponent was at least two hundred meters away, in a moving vehicle. Shooting urately would be impossible. However, after the gunshot, she saw through her four-times scope as the person from the approaching car tumbled out. The body collected dust from the ground, rolling like a tumbling Thomas train. It seemed it could be fried in oil and make any kid next door drool. "yer [Ming] used the Kar98k to kill yer [VeryHandsome]." "Oh my god!" Everyone was shocked! For real? One shot, a moving targets? And he was in a car! However, before anyone could question it, another yer''s car came into view, a ''Da Yun'' brand motorcycle, zooming past at top speed. Jiang Siming remained calm, ejecting the shell from the rifle, loading new bullets, and aiming again. Because the view wasn''t from Jiang Siming''s angle, the specific aiming process couldn''t be seen. All they saw was Jiang Siming aiming for less than a second before pulling the trigger again. From the dusty Kar98k emerged a new bullet, sparking at the muzzle. Then, it zoomed towards the intended target! Soon after, another message popped up in the upper right corner. "yer [Ming] used the Kar98k to kill yer [RunningBeauty]." The live audience froze for a second, then erupted like boiling oil. "Too fake, right? Two shots on moving targets? And in cars!" "Definitely a cheat! A lonely warrior!" "Wait, this ID looks familiar." "Damn it! This is the super pro who sniped 4AM and Little Tuantuan yesterday!" "Yeah, really! I was therest night, this guy is a pro. Verified by Weishen himself, and he even wanted to recruit the other person into his team." Viewersmented nonstop, and Dumb Little Sister naturally saw it all. "Didn''t expect little brother to be this good at the game... if I could add him on WeChat and y with him every day, wouldn''t my ears get pregnant? I could also cling to his thigh, get carried, wow!" Thinking of this, Dumb Little Sister decisively ran out, acting as a packhorse for Jiang Siming, bringing back anything necessary. "Little brother, which of these do you want? Take whatever! If not enough, I''ll go pick more!" Dumb Little Sister said confidently, as if she were the hostess entertaining a guest. Little did she know, all those items were obtained by Jiang Siming himself. "No need, bring the car over. We need to run away from posion zone." "Okay!" Dumb Little Sister obediently ran to bring the car. "Would you like me to drive, or should I drive, Brother Ming?" Dumb Little Sister asked gently, her tone surprisingly gentle and sweet,pletely different from her usual self during live broadcasts. And she''d already started calling him ''Brother Ming,'' not finding it awkward at all, rather affectionate. Jiang Siming couldn''t shut her up, so he said, "I''ll drive. We''ll have to cross a bridgeter, and there might be people blocking it. Good driving skills will be important." "Okay, then I''ll sit beside you and shield you from bullets!" Today, Dumb Little Sister hadpletely turned into ackey. And instead of using a regr car, Dumb Little Sister chose the most unstable motorcycle. Her little scheme was immediately seen through by the viewers in the live chat. Chapter 7 : Pro In PUBG "Usually, I dare not even touch a motorcycle, but now I dare to ride one. There must be something fishy going on!" "What''s fishy? This olddy just wants to hug someone''s waist!" "Upstairs, nailed it! Absolutely!" "I also want to hug the little brother''s waist~~" Caught red-handed by the audience in her little tricks, the silly girl chuckled, not bothering to exin, and drove the motorcycle in front of Jiang Siming, sitting obediently on the back seat. Jiang Siming, unsuspecting, took the driver''s seat, revved up the throttle, and the motorcycle sped through the ind map, reaching a maximum speed of 150, the fastest it could go. It was fine on the t road, and the silly girl wasn''t panicking. But she noticed they were about to enter a bumpy mountainous area, yet Jiang Siming maintained the speed. This was a motorcycle, the fastest vehicle in the game, but also the most unstable, prone to idents that could be fatal. Newbies faced far more risks riding a motorcycle than killing other yers. "Min... Brother Ming... Could you slow down a bit? The mountains are shaking..." The silly girl''s trembling voice cautioned softly. In real life, she would have been nauseous by now. But her voice was ignored by Jiang Siming, who didn''t ease off the throttle; it remained pinned. The motorcycle dashed into the forested mountains, evading one tree after another, left and right, maintaining high speed, and within moments, they reached the mountaintop. As Jiang Siming showcased his driving skills, the hearts of the audience and the silly girl roller-coaster with excitement. "Hey hey hey... Brother Ming, there''s a cliff ahead..." Seeing the imminent plunge off the cliff, the silly girl couldn''t hold back any longer and quivered. But Jiang Siming paid no heed, steering the vehicle towards the cliff and somersaulting in mid-air,nding smoothly! The acrobatics weren''t over; Jiang Siming rushed towards the infamous bridges on the ind map. The two bridges in the ind map were every yer''s nightmare, always blocked no matter where the safe zone was. Blocking the bridges was amon strategy in every ind game. Narrow bridge surface, long distances. Even on a motorcycle, it provided enough time for those blocking the bridge to target and shoot you. As soon as they set foot on the bridge, Jiang Siming and the silly girl heard the bullets flying towards them from the bridge''s end. Sure enough, someone was blocking the bridge! "It''s over, we''re done for..." the silly girl''s heart sank. Jiang Siming, however, remained calm, kept the throttle down, and continued to charge forward at high speed. This made the silly girl feel like she had been issued a death warrant. Stopping and seeking cover might have increased their chances of survival. But charging ahead recklessly increased their chance of death. However, what astonished the silly girl and her million online friends was... Jiang Siming turned the motorcycle towards the center of the bridge. Towards a wedged wooden box in the middle of the bridge! The motorcycle whooshed through the wedged wooden box, the inertia lifting both of them into the air! The motorcycle shot off the bridge! Was Jiang Siming trying to swim to the other side? Soon, their confusion was dispelled; the motorcycle didn''t fall into the sea but zoomed towards the opposite shore due to its high-speed momentum. Jiang Siming flipped the bike in the air again, elongating their flight, and finallynded safely on the oppositend! Immediately afternding, the motorcycle swiftly vanished into the forest, leaving no trace. The whole process was seamless, like a military parade. Jiang Siming''s stunt left all the viewers awestruck. "Amazing!" "This is the coolest and most awesome motorcycle stunt I''ve ever seen!" "Is this acrobatics or a scene from a blockbuster?" "This is Hollywood-level special effects!" "A master driver in the game! So stable! Want to take on apprentices?" The silly girl, equally impressed by Jiang Siming''s skills, was filled with admiration. "Brother Ming, you''re amazing! From today, I''m your number one fangirl!" This time, the audience didn''t find the ttery awkward; instead, they felt the silly girl echoed their thoughts. "Alright, someone will arrive soon. Let''s prepare to shoot." Jiang Siming parked the motorcycle at the highest peak, raised his kar98K, and prepared to snipe. Indeed, yers running away from poison gradually arrived at this essential location. Jiang Siming''s sniper rifle began its "work," bullets from the long-barreled shotgun raining down from the mountaintop to the foothills. No moving vehicles or running yers could escape Jiang Siming''s sniper rifle. At most, three bullets, and someone would die! Standing by, the silly girl felt she had nothing to contribute. To maintain a presence, she fired, whether or not she hit anything, following the gaming experience and insights of a seasoned yer. When Jiang Siming finally killed the fifth person, a smile of joy finally appeared on his face. Finally, a fragment appeared! And it was golden! "I''ll loot a package, you wait here," Jiang Siming instructed, heading down on the motorcycle. The silly girl blushed. Jiang Siming''s words not only sounded nice, but the content was also reminiscent of a boyfriend talking to his girlfriend: "Darling, wait here, I''ll go buy you some food." This made the silly girl''s heart flutter, murmuring softly, "Okay, Brother Ming, be careful." But Jiang Siming didn''t hear her words; he had already arrived near the body with the fragment. Upon opening it, he found the expected golden fragment, but this time, it wasn''t 5000 credits but a whole 100,000 credits! "Wow, I''ve struck it rich!" Jiang Simingughed joyfully, immediately using it. On his gaming desk, ten stacks of red credits appeared out of thin air! Fortunately, they weren''t at an inte caf¨¦; otherwise, it might have startled others. In thefort of his home, Jiang Siming didn''t rush to collect the money; he''d finish the game first. Casually replenishing some bullets, Jiang Siming rode the motorcycle back to the mountaintop to continue sniping. However, due to Jiang Siming''s aggressive kills, no one passed by anymore. After changing a few positions, they reached the final circle. The poison circle was now at its smallest. Apart from Jiang Siming and the silly girl, there were only two enemies left. However, the situation wasn''t ideal for the two. The motorcycle had run out of fuel, and they could only stick to the edge of the safe zone. Without any cover and being at a lower position, they were vulnerable to enemy shots. "Brother Ming, shall I go ahead and scout for you? You can follow me into the circle from behind?" The silly girl was willing to sacrifice herself. "No need, we can enter." Jiang Siming said, tossing two smoke grenades to the right, perfectly blocking the view from that side. "Let''s go, into the circle. Nobody knows our position from the left. Let''s sneak in carefully; nobody will notice." Jiang Siming took the lead in running forward. As long as they contained the person on the left, winning this round of the game was almost certain. The silly girl obediently followed Jiang Siming. However, just as the two were about to reach cover, the silly girl identally trembled and pulled the trigger, firing a shot. Chapter 8 : Winner Winner Chicken Dinner "Uh-oh!" Both Dumb Little Sister and her audience felt a jolt in their hearts. Sure enough, the gunfire immediately drew the attention of people on both sides. Everyone on either side stuck their heads out, pointing their guns furiously at Jiang Siming and Dumb Little Sister. Jiang Siming''s health dropped by half instantly, taking two shots. However,posed as ever, he swiftly raised his kar98k and, aiming at the enemy showing up on the right, took him down with a single shot. "yer [Ming] used a kar98k to kill yer [tiantian]." After taking down one enemy, Jiang Siming was about to aim for the left when he noticed Dumb Little Sister was left with just a sliver of health. One more shot, and she''d be done for. If Jiang Siming insisted on killing the person on the left, while that person would surely die, Dumb Little Sister would also meet her end. Slightly hesitating, Jiang Siming decided not to shoot for the moment. Instead, he sidestepped, moving to Dumb Little Sister''s left side. The final iing bullet that should have hit Dumb Little Sister found its way into Jiang Siming''s body instead. Dumb Little Sister was puzzled. Why hadn''t she died? Turning her head, she saw a tall and sturdy figure shielding her. The sound of the bullet entering flesh felt especially piercing in her ears. She then realized that Jiang Siming had taken the fatal bullet for her. This sudden move deeply moved her. Dumb Little Sister''s heart fluttered uncontrobly like a spring bouncing inside her, unable to suppress her emotions. She knew Jiang Siming didn''t know her identity and even disliked her following him around and ttering him. It was evident that Jiang Siming was not the kind to act chivalrous just because a woman was around. Yet, despite all this, he had acted decisively to shield her with his body. In the live chat, even many male viewers who were initially jealous were left speechless by Jiang Siming''s manly gesture, let alone the female fans. "This act of shielding is so manly, so masculine, no criticism allowed." "He could have killed the opponent by lifting his gun, but for Dumb Little Sister, he gave up. Must say, very gentlemanly." "It seems like it was an instinctive choice because he had no time to choose. Just for this, buddy, I''ve be your fan." "Wow, Dumb Little Sister is so lucky to meet such a good little brother. Quick, confess your love!" "Little brother is mine; back off, you jerks!" ... Dumb Little Sister, who survived, crouched behind Jiang Siming''s broad back, feeling both guilty and touched. "Big Brother Jiang, I''m sorry, it''s all my fault..." Jiang Siming didn''t reply but raised his gun again. Aim, shoot, and the enemy on the left was finally taken care of, but still, no fragments appeared. Next, only Dumb Little Sister and Jiang Siming were left. Whoever died would let the other win the chicken dinner. Dumb Little Sister had earned a six million fish cake tter. Jiang Siming didn''t know, but he still wanted to let Dumb Little Sister win the chicken dinner. After all, girls rarely win, so giving her one wouldn''t hurt. However, unexpectedly, Dumb Little Sister voluntarily ran into the poison circle and fell into the poison. "Great luck, eating chicken tonight!" Seeing the prompt on the screen, Jiang Siming was stunned for a moment. But he noticed a purple light shining in Dumb Little Sister''s loot box. While the game hadn''t ended yet, Jiang Siming immediately went over and picked up the purple musical note fragment. "Picked up [Primary Gic Potion]*1 (1/1), fragment quantity reached full, can be used directly." Gic potion? Jiang Siming clicked to use it, and immediately, on the desktop, appeared a vial-like potion. Information about the potion also came to his mind. Primary Gic Potion: Improves human gic structure, enhances various human body performances, reaching the top 5% of global human physical qualities at the primary level. Wow! This meant the potion could make Jiang Siming''s physical qualities rival the top 5% of the world. This was like finding a needle in a haystack, almost equivalent to a regional champion in the army. Jiang Siming, who got the potion, temporarily forgot about the game and took it right away. The sweet-like taste turned into electric currents in his stomach. Jiang Siming''s body began to crackle and pop, even his face began to feel pain. This startled Jiang Siming. Could he be disfigured? The changessted for a minute before stopping. Jiang Siming immediately took off his headphones, got up, and rushed into the bathroom. In the mirror, he found ink-colored mucus sticking all over his body, including his face. Not caring if he was disfigured, he took off his clothes and took a quick shower. After confirming he was clean, Jiang Siming came out of the bathroom, standing naked in front of the mirror. Upon a closer look, Jiang Siming was shocked. His height, originally 1.78 meters, had increased to 1.83 meters. The umted ''rich man''s flesh'' from not exercising had disappeared. He now had an eight-pack and a standard V-shaped figure. Even his legs had shed excess fat, reced by new muscle tone. Even his ''little brother'' had grown several centimeters, almost catching up to the lengths of European and American men, oh... Though his facial appearance didn''t change much, there was a clear improvement. His nose was higher, eyesrger, gaze deeper, eyebrows straighter, and facial contours more three-dimensional. Overall appearance, improved by several notches! If Jiang Siming''s previous appearance scored 80, he had now skyrocketed to 95, just short of perfect! Especially his bright and cheerful demeanor, as radiant as the sunshine, and his vibrant, twinkling eyes gave him an entirely different charm. Feeling so handsome, he momentarily thought of entering the entertainment industry. However, he realized he didn''t have acting or singing talent, and being monitored by the public wasn''t something he desired. Plus, he still wanted to make money by ying PUBG; entering the entertainment industry would leave him with no time for gaming. Shaking his head, Jiang Siming stopped his wandering thoughts and returned to hisputer desk, ready to continue his chicken dinner game. At this point, his game interface had popped up, back in the lobby. Jiang Siming originally intended to continue solo ying but noticed an ID in the bottom right corner repeatedly inviting him to y. This ID seemed familiar to Jiang Siming¡ªit was the girl from thest match. Chapter 9 : Queen of Breakups Jiang Siming, who initially wanted to refuse, found that the other person kept repeatedly inviting him. In other words, from the time he drank the potion to the time he went to the bathroom for a shower, the other person had been waiting, at least for an hour had passed. The other person had been waiting for him the whole time, at least for the past hour. In Dumb little Sister''s livestream... Normally carefree and always smiling, Dumb little Sister had lost her smile. She hadn''t started the game, just staring nkly at the game lobby interface under ''Recent Games'' on the right side. Her mouse kept clicking and refreshing behind the ID ''Ming'', repeatedly sending invitations. She kept doing this for an hour, doing nothing else, just waiting for Jiang Siming. Even though many viewers in the livestream were getting impatient, she didn''t want to give up. "It''s been an hour already, are we ying or not? If not, I''m unsubscribing!" "Douyu streamer dazing in the livestream, making millions per month." "Neers look confused, asking what''s wrong with Dumb little Sister today, did she get upset by someone?" "It looks like Dumb little Sister has fallen in love, look at her eyes, they''re red." "Oh no, the olddy seems to be really in love, look at how teary-eyed she is." "Wow, breaking news on Douyu, the olddy fell for a random pro yer ''Ming''!" Reading thesements, Dumb little Sister felt a bit uneasy. Internally, she was questioning herself, could she really like Jiang Siming? But she had only yed one game with Jiang Siming, how could she possibly like him! Then why was she obsessively waiting for his reply? An hour had passed, and Brother Ming still hadn''t epted her invitation. Did he really dislike her... Dumb little Sister, her mind all muddled, felt extremely aggrieved, her nose tingling with the threat of tears. Luckily, her best friend ran over at that moment and apologized to the audience, saying: "Dumb little isn''t feeling well today, so the livestream will end here, sorry everyone, see youter." While speaking, her friend closed her livestream. This was the most rational way to handle it. If she continued, Dumb little Sister would definitely lose followers. Besides, she was so absent-minded right now, she couldn''t continue the livestream anyway. With the livestream off, Dumb little Sister finally couldn''t hold back and quietly cried on the table. "Dumb Dumb, don''t cry, it''s nothing, if he doesn''t agree, it''s because he doesn''t know how to appreciate, there''s nothing to be sad about." Her friend hurried to console her. Choked up, Dumb little Sister confided in her best friend: "Er Qian, I''m feeling something for a boy for the first time, but he seems to dislike me, sniff..." "I know, I know, don''t be sad, failed first loves are good, you''ll gain experience and meet someone better in the future." Her friend''sfort didn''t do much, Dumb little Sister''s mood was still not good. Feeling upset, she shut down herputer andy down on the bed for a while. Little did she know, at the moment she turned off herputer, someone entered her game lobby, but Dumb little Sister didn''t see. After epting the invitation, Jiang Siming found that the other party was offline. After waiting for a while and not seeing the other persone online, he left the team and yed solo. After Dumb little Sister ended her stream, Douyu started a new round of news. Renowned streamer Dumb little Sister falls for a random gamer, invites him to duo, waits for an hour with no response and sadly ends the stream - instantly bing hot news on Douyu. Moreover, the male lead in the news was none other than ''Ming'', who had stirred up a bit of news yesterday. Two pieces of news in a row were rted to Jiang Siming, and there were many discussions about his identity on Douyu''s forums. There were even many of Dumb little Sister''s die-hard fans wanting to track down Jiang Siming to stand up for their streamer. After all, she was a popr female streamer with arge number of fans. Her gossip was something Douyu''s viewers were eager to see. Moreover, Dumb little Sister wasn''t leaning on any wealthy person, just a random yer she''d never met before. The video of the two ying together circted on the forums, showing no signs of any mary transaction or mutual benefits. This pure rtionship made many viewers look at Dumb little Sister in a new light, contradicting the notion that all female streamers were money-driven and only attached to wealthy patrons. Dumb little Sister''s actions clearly proved her innocence and won her many viewers'' hearts. But Jiang Siming, who didn''t pay much attention to livestreams, was unaware of all this. ying games until the afternoon, Jiang Siming temporarily stopped ying. He went out to deposit the hundred thousand credits he had earned in the bank, transferring it to his dad''s bank card. "Son, why did I receive a transfer notification on my bank card, a whole hundred thousand, did the bank make a mistake?" Jiang''s father called, inquiring about the matter. Jiang Siming, enjoying the breeze by Huangpu River in Shanghai, leaned against the railing, smiling as he replied over the phone, "It''s true, Dad, I transferred it to you." "How did you suddenly earn so much money? Son, you didn''t do anything illegal, did you?" Jiang''s father asked suspiciously. Jiang Siming couldn''t help butugh, saying, "Dad, don''t you understand your son? Am I capable of doing anything wrong?" "What about this money? Exin it clearly, otherwise, see how I deal with you when you''re back home!" Jiang''s father questioned seriously. Jiang Siming quickly exined, making up a reason, saying he sold a house today and this was the agent fee. This exnation dispelled Jiang''s father''s doubts, making him happy again. "Well, you don''t have to give it all to me, keep some for yourself, I''ll transfer it back to you." "No need, Dad, I still have tens of thousands here, it''s enough for me. You keep this money, spend it wherever needed. Sister hasn''t bought new clothes in a year, let Mom get her a few outfits. She''s almost entering high school, she needs proper nutrition. Mom also, she lost weight thest time I visited." "Don''t worry, Dad will use this money, or save it. You''ll need it in the future, whether for my marriage or buying a house." Jiang''s father talked about how even if the family was in difficulties, he still thought about his son''s future. "Marriage? Don''t worry, Dad, when your son gets married in the future, if the girl only wants riches, demands a house and car, I''ll immediately dump her." Jiang Siming half-jokingly said. "Oh, you can''t say that. If the girl follows you, having a house is expected, otherwise, how can you make her happy, silly child." Jiang''s father was very open-minded. "Don''t worry, Dad, if the money runs out, I''ll make more. Your son has that ability, so rx and spend it as you like." "Alright, stop talking, Dad knows how to arrange things. Hang up, the call''s getting expensive." After reminding Jiang Siming to take care of himself and rest well, Jiang''s father hung up. Actually, every time Jiang Siming called home, Jiang''s father would hang up first and then call back, just to save some phone bill for his son. This time, Jiang Siming decided to buy two smartphones for his parents when he went home and teach them how to use them, so they wouldn''t worry about making phone calls. After hanging up, Jiang Siming looked at the night scene by the Huangpu River, determined to work hard and make his family live a good life!" Chapter 10 : Rich Womans Happiness Ball? Outside, Jiang Siming, who had bought an 18 credit beef brisket rice box for ate-night snack, intended to return home. As he passed an office area, he noticed arge billboard. It disyed "4AM PUBG team recruiting" in bold letters, followed by some recruitment criteria: Must be over eighteen years old. Minimum 2000+ hours of gamey. KDA above 4.0. Average damage per match above 500. Must have a rank of 3000+ in Asia server and 4000+ in other servers. No bad habits, willing to follow instructions, and in good health. Preference for sniping talent. Offering a monthly sry of over 50,000, including meals, amodation, tournament bonuses, and season-end bonuses. Seeing this recruitment notice, Jiang Siming was itching with curiosity. The conditions were fantastic¡ª50,000 monthly and everything covered. But he realized he might not meet their standards yet. His game ount hadn''t clocked more than a hundred hours, his score was just 1200, and his KDA and damage stats were far below the requirements. Despite winning several matches recently, his stats hadn''t improved much due to the previous setbacks. He didn''t meet the criteria at all, and joining the team would mean daily training with team members, no flexible schedule, essentially obeying the team''smands entirely. Having just escaped the hardships of regr work, Jiang Siming temporarily didn''t want to be under someone else''s control and left after a quick nce. Back home, after devouring the beef brisket rice, Jiang Siming cleaned up, took a shower, and was about to start gaming when there was a knock at the door. Opening it, he found thendy. "Anything, Auntie Luo?" Jiang Siming asked with a furrowed brow. Auntie Luo was hisndy, but Jiang Siming didn''t particrly like her¡ªshe was too materialistic, stingy, andcked empathy. At the first nce, Auntie Luo''s eyes nearly popped out, examining Jiang Siming with a leering smile. "Little Jiang, I''m here to check in on you and talk about a couple of things." "Go ahead, I''m listening." Jiang Siming stood at the door, showing no intention of letting her in. Auntie Luo, undeterred, after eyeing Jiang Siming several more times, said with a sly smile, "Firstly, there''s a tenant visiting tomorrow. It''d be good if you rearranged the living room, making a good impression on the new tenant." Auntie Luo''s apartment had two bedrooms and a living room. Jiang Siming rented only one room. The other had a couple who moved outst month, leaving it vacant. "Auntie Luo, bringing a tenant is fine, but remember our agreement¡ªnot to bring in strange or unclean people." Jiang Siming was straightforward. He didn''t want a messy or unsavory roommate, such as prostitutes, gamblers, or gangsters; he''d move out immediately if that happened. He was fairly content with the previous couple who were clean and pleasant, except for the asional loud noises at night. Auntie Luoughed heartily, "Don''t worry, Little Jiang. This time, it''s a girl¡ªclean and pretty. I wouldn''t risk my property on some unruly person." "That''s good. What''s the other thing?" "The other thing is, your rent for this month is due soon. Whenever you have time,e and pay it," Auntie Luo said with a greedy grin. Although Jiang Siming wasn''t angry, he didn''t have a good impression of her. He''d been living here for over a year, and every month, Auntie Luo woulde right on time to collect the rent. There couldn''t be any dy, or else she''d demand extra payment. Once, when he was short on cash and requested a two-day extension, despite pleading, she didn''t agree. Ultimately, Jiang Siming had to use a credit card to pay her. As Jiang Siming was about to get the money, Auntie Luo unexpectedly seemed lenient. "Actually, Little Jiang, if you''re short on cash, it''s fine. I can give you a few extra days." Before she finished, she added, "My back''s been aching these days. If youe to my ce and give me a massage, I won''t charge you extra. How about that?" The rumored sugar mama''s happy ball? Trying to groom herself a boy toy? Upon hearing this, Jiang Siming didn''t say a word, turned, went into his room, brought out 2,000 credit, ced it on the living room table, and then mmed the door shut. "Cut the nonsense! Trying to save face!" Auntie Luo eximed dispiritedly, picked up the money, and left, twisting her bucket waist. After getting rid of the annoying and disgustingndy, Jiang Siming returned to hisputer desk, fired up PUBG, and continued his solo journey. Upon entering the lobby, Jiang Siming noticed numerous invitations from strangers. Thinking it was just advertising, Jiang Siming ignored them and set his settings to block invitations, proceeding with solo y. Meanwhile, in the Douyu live streaming room, the re-streaming Dumb Little Sister, now without her daytime dejection, returned to her "smiling" face and continued chatting with her viewers. However, each time she died and returned to the lobby, she couldn''t resist checking if Jiang Siming was online. "Maybe he''s not ying today," Dumb Little Sister thought. Suppressing her downhearted mood, she prepared to start another game but noticed Jiang Siming''s ID''s "+" sign lit up again. However, in no time, it turned off again, disying that invitations weren''t avable. Her friend noticed it too and quickly tried to calm her. "Dumb Dumb, his ID is famous on Douyu, didn''t you see the forums? Many people want him to y for you. That''s why he disabled the invites." Dumb Little Sister found this reasonable and reluctantly adjusted her mood to continue her live stream. Jiang Siming became serious as he entered the game. Since this game became his cradle for fulfilling dreams and aspirations, he couldn''t treat it like any other game. Though he currently had no ns to join a professional team, Jiang Siming still hoped to elevate his rank¡ªmaybe higher ranks had a better chance of getting item drops. This time, it was a small map¡ªthe newly released Sanhok map. Jiang Siming looked around in the sky but didn''t spot any loot crates. But he didn''t lose hope and flew towards Bootcamp. Bootcamp was the most terrifying spot on the small map, with more than twenty yers dropping on average every round, as bloody as the airport. Many people dropped there, either getting killed onnding or ambushed by others, earning it the name Bootcamp¡ªthe ce where one "trains" themselves. When parachuting, Jiang Siming realized his parachuting skills were awful; others had alreadynded while he was still in the air. Although he wanted to rush to the central building for weapons, others whonded earlier already had guns, making it a suicide mission. Helpless, Jiang Simingnded in a deep trench near the building. Slow parachuting often resulted in a halfway loss in the game. Sighing, Jiang Siming thought he needed to check parachute techniques in his free time; otherwise, all his skills would be useless. Chapter 11 : Skills Skyrocketed Fortunately, the small map was well-equipped. He searched only one trench in the ditch and found an AK rifle, paired with a Level 1 helmet and armor. Even though hecked a scope, Jiang Siming didn''t care. He ran out of the trench, ready to kill! The first enemy he encountered had just finished searching. The dark-faced man seemed delighted with the loot he found, imagining himself in a thrillingbat scene. "Arriving just in time. Let me show you what I''m capable of!" Jiang Siming said. The dark-faced man, unaware that death was approaching, aimed his gun full of fighting spirit as he met Jiang Siming. To his surprise, before he could even pull the trigger, a bullet from Jiang Siming''s AK took him out. It was a single shot, effortless and casual. Looking at the ground, there were no scraps. Jiang Siming picked up some ammo and took his armor, which was in good condition. Continuing the search for enemies, as soon as he stepped out of the trench, there was the sound of an M4 from the central building. Someone was already ambushed there. Jiang Siming took two shots but, with his armor, didn''t lose much health. There was no panic. He turned back and quickly eliminated the ambusher at the window with a headshot. Ding! A bright light shed! A white-colored fragment shone from the window. Jiang Siming was delighted. He rushed upstairs and picked up the white fragment. "Picked up ''Parachute Mastery'' *1 (1/1), fragment count is full, can be used directly." Great! A pillow arrives when he''s about to doze off! But before he could fully celebrate, while he was stunned looking at the fragment, someone sneaked in and attacked him, leaving him lying in a pool of blood. Jiang Siming wasn''t upset. He happily clicked to start another round! Back in the small map, without hesitation, he continued to jump toward the Bootcamp. This time, being proficient in parachuting, he was three seconds faster than the fastest passerby. On average, he was about five seconds faster than others. This discovery thrilled Jiang Siming. Five seconds! That was enough time for him to do many things! The fastest passerbynded at the same target as Jiang Siming and was nearly scared out of their wits when they saw him. "Wrnd! How did this person parachute so fast?" Renowned Tiger Teeth streamer, Dragonwind, looked at Jiang Siming on the screen and even swore. As soon as hended, a barrage of bullets turned him into a square-shaped box. "yer ''Ming'' used QBZ to kill yer ''huya_lflong.''" "Wow, what''s up with this guy? Parachuting so fast! I barelynded, and he''s already picked up a gun and loaded it. How is this fair!" Though heined, he had to exit the game and start over. This round was not a good gaming experience... With the ''Parachute Mastery'' talent, Jiang Siming felt right at home. Taking down the second group thatnded, Jiang Siming nced up and noticed many parachuters, looking adorable and cute. Without hesitation, Jiang Siming aimed his gun towards the sky and started shooting down these ''birds''. "yer ''Ming'' used QBZ to kill yer ''skt_faker''." "yer ''Ming'' used QBZ to kill yer ''nidieshiwo''." "yer ''Ming'' used QBZ to kill yer ''shishni''." ... After shooting down three ''birds'' in a row, within ten meters above him, there were no more beings in the sky. "Haha, this is just too much fun." For someone like Jiang Siming with exceptional marksmanship, fast parachuting was like driving a sports car with nitrous, an invinciblebo! After emptying thirty rounds of bullets and everyone in the skynding, Jiang Siming resumed searching on the rooftop. The reason many people jump to the central point is because it''s lucrative. Just a quick search around, and Jiang Siming already found a Level 2 helmet, armor, a fully equipped QBZ, and an AK. Despite having a sniper, Jiang Siming wasn''t particrly skilled with it. In terms of sniping, he only used the 98k and preferred having two rifles instead. With ample equipment, Jiang Siming had no intention to keep searching; his focus was on ughter! As he ascended to the rooftop, Jiang Siming spotted a ck girl next to a low-rise building, engrossed in looting. Suddenly! Gunshots rang out, and within half a second, she received at least eight shots in her backside. Shortly after, she fell dead without even seeing her assant''s face... Hmm, that''s a bit macabre. Next time, he''d better find a different ce to fight... The gunfire also revealed Jiang Siming''s location. A yer with a sniper rifle was hiding on top of a three-story cement structure, shooting back at Jiang Siming. Taking a hit, Jiang Siming immediately identified the opponent''s position, turned his gun, and aimed through the scope. The six-fold sh at the muzzle of the QBZ sparkled. Despite the fifty-meter distance, the bullets converged into a single point, cleanly executing the sniper. 6x aiming! For Jiang Siming, this was effortless; he could even handle the AK with a 6x scope without any difficulty. Killing the second, without even losing any health, Jiang Siming continued searching for others! Bold and arrogant, Jiang Siming held two rifles like hellish messengers of death. Every shot fired meant a head dropped! This round''s Bootcamp had be a purgatory, quickly devoid of other survivors. In the Bootcamp , a white light, a green light, and a golden light appeared, making Jiang Siming ecstatic. "Picked up ''Reaction Speed Talent'' *1 (1/4), the number of fragments is not full, cannot be used temporarily." "Picked up ''Win94 Mastery'' *1 (1/1), the number of fragments is full, can be used directly." "Picked up ''10000 Credit'' *1 (1/1), the number of fragments is full, can be used directly." One was the Win94 Mastery, an ignored sniper rifle. The other, the Reaction Speed Talent, a green fragment, required four pieces to synthesize, something Jiang Siming couldn''t use at the moment. However, when he gathered enough, Jiang Siming believed his skills would certainly improve. Many times, Jiang Siming died because he was ambushed, couldn''t react in time, regretting his demise. His gaming reaction speed was average, but with enhancement, Jiang Siming believed his chance of winning would double. Jiang Siming noticed that most white fragments were skill-based, while gold ones were mary, which was moremon. Rarer were the green ones like ''Reaction Talent'' and the purple ones like ''Primary Gene Potion''. Coming out of the Bootcamp, Jiang Siming was as rich as andlord''s silly son. This round was lucky; he didn''t encounter tricky opponents and eventually won the chicken dinner! 18 kills! After the chicken dinner, he got another ''Reaction Speed Talent'' green fragment and happily started the next round. The entire night, Jiang Siming was buried in various maps of PUBG. Almost like being enchanted, in nearly ten games, he managed to win in half of them! Aside from being ambushed, only the circle of poison, being besieged, or poor vision resulting in not seeing opponents led to Jiang Siming''s death. Throughout the night, Jiang Siming won a total of 9 chicken dinners. He obtained 3 white fragments, 4 gold fragments, 1 red fragment, and 1 green fragment. All the gold fragments were money, totaling 10,000 credits. The white fragments were ''Mastery of All PUBG Maps'', ''Grenade Mastery'', ''Fist Mastery'', and ''SKS Mastery'', all game skills. The green one was still ''Reaction Speed Talent'', and Jiang Siming had three pieces, onlycking thest one! Thest one was a red fragment, the first time it appeared, surprisingly, it was ''Vocal Talent'', but this piece required 5 to unlock. In summary, Jiang Siming had a fruitful night. Moreover, after the gic potion modification, Jiang Siming''s physical condition was excellent. Even if he stayed up all night, he remained energetic. While hesitating whether to sleep or continue gaming, Jiang Siming heard a knock at the door from outside. Chapter 12 : The New Tenant Jiang Siming stood up and ran to open the door. A slender figure stood at the door. The appearance made Jiang Siming''s eyes light up. As if seeing the girl next door described in a novel. Her appearance did not belong to the stunning type, but it was very pleasant to look at. A face full of cogen, lightly colored eyebrows showing a natural crescent shape. Clear eyes, lips without lipstick but with a hint of light pink, tender like new shoots. The hairstyle is a simple bob, very short, only reaching the neck. The hair buns on both sides arebed behind the ears, revealing a white neck and stic ears. The figure is small, not tall, only about 1.65 meters. But full of vitality! This kind of girl only appeared in the high school ssroom, the fantasy of first love in novels andics. Jiang Siming felt that she was enough to surpass Shen Jiayi in the movie "You Are the Apple of My Eye". If she came to film, she would be at least ten times more beautiful than Chen Yanxi. The girl carried arge guitar on her back and dragged two heavy suitcases in her hand. Before Jiang Siming opened the door, the girl was still whispering with thendy Luo Jie. "Auntiendy, let''s agree in advance, I haven''t decided on this room yet. If my neighbor is too... that, I will consider changing ces." "Rest assured, girl, Auntie won''t deceive you. This young man has been living with me for more than a year. He is very nice. Several tenants who shared a room with him have praised him." Snap. The door opened, and the two people''s conversation ended here. The girl looked up at Jiang Siming, and in an instant, the psychological defense she had built copsed. "How can this guy... be so handsome..." A slight blush appeared on the fair face of the girl. No one doesn''t love beauty. Men like beautiful women, and women also like good-looking men. This principle is universally applicable, but everyone''s attitude towards appearance is different. Some belong to the level of obsessive appearance association, as long as the other party looks good. Any other factor of this person, even if the character is bad, can be ignored, and they are willing to be a sky dog. But this girl is not like that. In fact, she is indifferent to looks. It''s just that Jiang Siming''s appearance far exceeds the highest appearance she has ever seen, so it triggers a blush and heartbeat that has never appeared before, and she loses herposure. "Are you the new tenant?" Jiang Siming finished examining the girl and asked. The girl nodded, saying, "Yes." "Then pleasee in. Auntie Luo should have mentioned to you about being my neighbor and the conditions I set before renting, so I hope you don''t mind," Jiang Siming straightforwardly spoke. Although the girl looked pleasing and somewhat familiar, he didn''t know her personality, so he chose to address everything. "It''s alright, go ahead," the girl replied, quite understanding and even a bit happy. She was more afraid that Jiang Siming would be indifferent and messy, indicating that he wouldn''t care. "It''s not a big deal. First, cleanliness is important. I won''t interfere with your bedroom, but the living room and bathroom need to be kept tidy. We''ll take turns cleaning, and please keep your personal items organized." "Sure, no problem. I''m new here, so I''ll take care of the cleaning for the first month!" The girl generously took charge of housework, and Jiang Siming didn''t refuse, considering it as a test. "Secondly, unless absolutely necessary, no bringing strangers into the house. If it''s necessary, we need to get the other person''s consent. I''ll do the same. Alright?" Jiang Siming disliked tenants who liked to bring in a bunch of friends, making the house chaotic, even if he lived in someone else''s ce. "No problem!" "Lastly, no loud disturbances that affect others'' rest." This point made the girl a bit hesitant. She cautiously asked, "I''m studying music and practice guitar and singing in the house..." As if afraid Jiang Siming would be unhappy, the girl immediately added, "But don''t worry, I''ll definitely keep the volume down! I won''t y after midnight!" Understanding, Jiang Siming agreed with a nod. Then he briefly showed the girl around the house. Although Jiang Siming was not obsessive about cleanliness, he paid attention to basic hygiene. After the inspection, the girl was very satisfied. She happily signed the contract, and Auntie Luo, content with the money, left. Now only the girl and Jiang Siming were left in the house. "How much is your rent with Auntue Luo?" Jiang Siming asked after seeing the girl give Sister Luo a considerable amount of cash. "3500 a month, I paid for three months," the girl obediently answered. Jiang Siming rolled his eyes, already knowing this ''bloodsucker''s'' nature. "What''s wrong? Is something not right?" The girl looked puzzled at Jiang Siming''s expression. "My rent is 2000 a month." "Wow! That''s so much cheaper!" The girl showed a distressed expression, but after a few seconds, she put on a smile. "Never mind, consider it a lesson learned. Sometimes, spending money brings fortune." Defeated by the girl''s optimistic spirit, Jiang Siming didn''t say anything. He just nodded politely and offered, "You have so many things, need any help?" "No, no, I can manage on my own." Jiang Siming nodded and turned to go back to his room for some rest. "Oh, by the way, I haven''t introduced myself yet. I''m Wang Xinyi, a junior at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music. And you?" The girl spoke from behind. "I''m Jiang Siming, graduated from Fudan University three years ago, currently unemployed." "Wow, Fudan University! It''s near my school. I always wanted to get in, but my grades were too bad. Can I call you Senior Brother in the future?" "Sure." "Thanks, Senior Brother." Jiang Siming returned to his room, shut down hisputer, and went to sleep. When he woke up, it was already dark outside. Jiang Siming''s stomach growled. He had intended to order takeout, but the sounds of cooking and women chatting in the kitchen piqued his curiosity. Perplexed, Jiang Siming opened the door and walked out. In the kitchen, he found two figures ¨C one was the new tenant, Wang Xinyi, and the other was an unfamiliar woman. "Xinyi, I really can''t rest easy with you living here alone. Besides, your neighbor is a man. You''re so pretty; what if he has some evil thoughts?" "Cousin, you''re too imaginative. He''s a Fudan University graduate and seems like a good guy, very disciplined." "Disciplined? He''s been sleeping until now?" "Well, that''s his personal matter. Don''t worry about it, cousin." "Oh, by the way, what does he look like?" "Uh... he''s... okay... quite handsome, I guess... (feeling a bit guilty)." Chapter 13 : Register for Companionship Service Cough, cough. Jiang Siming coughed twice, startling the two girls who turned around. Wang Xinyi''s face instantly turned as red as a burning fire, and the spoon held above the pot of dishes almost spilled. "Brother, sorry if we disturbed your sleep. It''s like this, this is my cousin. She came to see me today. I wanted to greet you, but when I knocked on the door, you didn''t wake up, so..." Wang Xinyi was afraid that Jiang Siming would be angry, so she quickly exined. Leaning against the kitchen door, Jiang Siming smiled and said, "It''s okay, I overslept. My bad. You two continue chatting." "Brother, haven''t you eaten yet? I''ve made a lot of food. Join us?" Wang Xinyi said expectantly. "Yeah, sir, we were just about to make it and call you. My sister will be living here in the future, so we''ll rely on you a lot. Let''s have a meal together." Wang Xinyi''s cousin also extended the invitation, feeling embarrassed about the earlier suspicion of Jiang Siming. Jiang Siming, who originally wanted to refuse, saw Wang Xinyi''s eyes full of expectation and reluctantly nodded in agreement. "I can eat, but after eating, I''ll clean up. Any objections?" The two girls exchanged nces, both happily nodding. They respected each other and didn''t want to reject their kindness. They were also willing to take on household chores. Wang Xinyi''s cousin felt more at ease. It seemed that her sister''s neighbor was reliable. In the evening, Jiang Siming had dinner with Wang Xinyi and her cousin. Wang Xinyi mostly cooked, and her cousin helped a bit. The food was delicious. Jiang Siming didn''t expect Wang Xinyi to be so skilled. The sweet and sour spare ribs and corn soup were exceptionally tasty. With a hearty appetite, he ate threerge bowls of rice. Fortunately, Wang Xinyi cooked too much, or the three of them might not have had enough. After dinner, Jiang Siming cleaned the dishes and wiped the table. The two girls wanted to help but were "cruelly" rejected. Wang Xinyi''s cousin stayed for a while, reminding Wang Xinyi a bit, and then went back. Wang Xinyi said goodnight to Jiang Siming and went back to her room. Jiang Siming returned to his own bedroom, opened theputer, and continued to fight in the world of yerUnknown''s Battlegrounds (PUBG) after being well-fed and watered. He was quite satisfied with earning 120,000 credit in one night. However, he was still considering whether to leverage his gaming skills. Since he was already good at ying PUBG, why not be a streamer or do some gamepanionship to make extra money? Money is something everyone can use. As for bing a streamer, Jiang Siming hasn''t thought much about it. Hecks experience in live broadcasting, has no poprity, andcks distinctive talents. Although his PUBG skills are strong now, live streaming is not just about skills. Viewers may not necessarily be interested. The live broadcast tform is verypetitive, and starting as a small streamer, even if he bes popr, he might still be exploited by the tform. Moreover, he doesn''t even have the necessary equipment for live broadcasting. That''s something to considerter. Being a gamepanion is different. It brings in money quickly, gets paid hourly, and doesn''t have many concerns. Plus, he has voice acting skills. Being a gamepanion is essentially a job he''s confident in. Therefore, Jiang Siming logged into the popr gamingpanion app called "Bixinguo Peiwan", registered an ount, and applied to be a gamepanion with the ID "Ming." As for the profile picture, Jiang Siming didn''t n to show his face. He sells his voice, not his appearance. So, he casually used a cartoon image of Crayon Shin-chan as his profile picture. After uploading his identification information and applying for the gamingpanion service, Jiang Siming had to wait for the result. The efficiency of Bixinguo was high; immediately, a customer service representative, with a sweet voice, contacted Jiang Siming. Indeed, gamepanions mostly relied on their voices for a living; even an ordinary customer service voice sounded quite pleasant. "Hello, is this Mr. ''Ming,'' the one applying for the gamingpanion service?" The youngdy on the other end inquired. "Yes, is there anything you need to confirm?" Jiang Siming replied. There was a brief pause on the other end of theputer, and after about three seconds, the voice resumed. "Sorry for zoning out. So, Mr. Ming, we need to verify your basic information. Will your gamingpanion services only be for yerUnknown''s Battlegrounds (PUBG)?" "Yes, is there a problem?" "Well, your voice is very pleasant. I suggest you expand into other services, such as other games, especially chatting services. It will be very promising." The earlier pause was because the customer servicedy was captivated by Jiang Siming''s voice. As a customer service representative at Bixinguo, she had heard countless pleasant male voices of various types. But Jiang Siming''s voice set a new benchmark for "pleasant." So, she kindly suggested, aiming to deepen a positive impression and maybe make a new friend. "No need, I''ll stick to gaming for PUBG only," Jiang Siming firmly declined. "Ah... that''s fine. But Mr. Ming, your PUBG ID shows a score of only 1500, with a KDA of 3.0. With this score, you can only handle low-end services; you''ll have to start from there," the customer service representative reminded him. "What are the benefits for low-end services?" "Usually, it''s 20 credit per hour, and the tform takes a 40% fee." A bit low. Jiang Siming hesitated. Hearing Jiang Siming''s silence, the customer servicedy kindly suggested again: "Mr. Ming, your game score determines yourpanion level. I can''t change that. However, if you''re willing to ept other services like chatting, I can take the liberty of upgrading you to a gold-level service and immediately provide you with a rmendation. What do you think?" Jiang Siming''s voice was truly charming. The customer servicedy knew that a voice like his, if used for chatting, would be extremely popr. Female clients would definitely fight over his orders! Even if she took the liberty to make this decision, the management wouldn''t me her. The customer servicedy waited eagerly for what felt like an eternity, and Jiang Siming''s voice sounded again. "No need, I''ll start with low-end services. I''ll only take gamingpanionship for PUBG." Hearing Jiang Siming''s persistence, the customer servicedy had no choice. She proceeded to verify Jiang Siming''s information and submitted the request. As a favor, she also secured a rmendation spot for Jiang Siming. Although the position was not prominent, the fact that Jiang Siming''s data qualified for a rmendation was already against the rules. "Thank you," Jiang Siming expressed gratitude, aware that the representative was helping him. "No worries, I really like your voice. If I need a gamingpanion in the future, I hope you''ll take my orders," the yful customer servicedy said. "Sure, your first order won''t have a fee," Jiang Siming replied with a smile. After ending the conversation with the customer servicedy, Jiang Siming resumed his focus on the game. Since no one had epted his orders, he had to y solo for now. Meanwhile, in the DouYu tform''s thriving PUBG live broadcast category, two female PUBG stars were vying for top spots¡ªDumb Little Sister and Little Tuantuan. Chapter 14 : The First Order "Recently, Little Tuantuan''s live broadcast hasn''t been good. The main reason is that there are no new broadcast effects, and the old ones have made the audience feel bored." "It''s not that bad, but the content of a solo broadcast is somewhat empty. She needs a partner to create a fresh program atmosphere." "Before, she invited many viewers, but unfortunately, none of them satisfied her. Some had unpleasant voices, some had poor skills, and some were too nervous to speak during the live broadcast." "Then she found a male streamer named Chen Sogou to duo with, but he always treated her with ulterior motives." "He always tried to get closer to her and pursued her." "Even her fans in the live broadcast room were led by him, constantly suggesting they should be together, making Tuantuan annoyed." "Yesterday, she was even coerced by Chen Sogou to confess to her seemingly following the request of fans, which made her feel embarrassed, and it ended without anything concrete." "So today, she decided not to find Chen Sogou. Instead, she nned to try finding a boy or girl to apany her and see how it goes." "Tuantuan, Chen Sogou is live too! Quickly invite him!" "Did you agree to his confessionst night? Chen Sogou is such a good person and so considerate to you. Are you even human if you don''t agree?" "I''m a girl, and I would definitely ept Chen Sogou''s confession!" "Chen Sogou is already waiting for you! He said he has a surprise for you today!" ... Seeing the barrage ofments, Tuantuan not only didn''t develop good feelings, but became even more resistant. Suppressing her emotions, Tuantuan smiled and said to the audience, "Today, we won''t be pairing up with Chen Sogou. Today, I n to find a boy from thepanionship service." "Really? How will Chen Sogou feel? Are you trying to deceive Chen Sogou by looking for someone else? Are you putting a hat on him?" "Chen Sogou''s fans get lost! Tuantuan didn''t agree to be his girlfriend!" "Yeah, Chen Sogou''s fans make me feel disgusted. Support Tuantuan!" "Ha, women." ... Reading thesements, Tuantuan felt so wronged that she wanted to cry. She never epted Chen Sogou''s confession, and even out of consideration for his dignity, she sincerely told him after the broadcast that she wasn''t interested in him. She never expected his fans to be so extreme. Although it was the fans who said it, if Chen Sogou himself could publicly state that their rtionship was innocent, why would the fans be so easily influenced? Moreover, Chen Sogou treated her confession as if he hadn''t heard it, never publicly acknowledged it, and even intensified his pursuit. Ignoring the rhythm of the barrage, Little Tuantuan began to screenpanionship candidates on the app. There were many people looking for high-levelpanionship, which surprised her because there was a long wait. She had to settle for lower-level ones. When she scrolled through the rmended page and found a malepanion, she was a bit surprised. "The opponent''s score is only 1500, and they haven''t taken a single order yet, but they miraculously appeared on the rmended page." "The information provided in the order states: ''Companion for Chicken Dinner business, 40% Chicken Dinner rate.''" "In other words, they im they can get four Chicken Dinners out of ten matches. Even professional gamers wouldn''t have such confidence when talking about fishing in a fishpond." "Tuantuan didn''t believe this at all and wanted to skip this bragger. However, there was ament from a customer service representative below the order." "It said: ''I personally confirm that the owner of this order has a melodious voice, an absolute auditory pleasure!''" "Tuantuan knew this customer service representative as a top-rated one on the app, highly rmended forpanionship services and very well-liked by customers, boasting a great reputation." "The fact that this representative gave such a high evaluation made Little Tuantuan a bit intrigued." "Alright, let me try it for an hour. If it''s not good, I''ll change it right away. It''s only 20 credit anyway." "Thinking this, Tuantuan ced an order with Jiang Siming and also gave him a YY channel number." "Not long after, an ount named ''Ming'' walked into her live broadcast room." "Hello, are you thedy named Tina who just ced an order?" "''Tina'' is Tuantuan''s nickname on the app." "The moment Tuantuan and the audience heard Jiang Siming''s voice, they were mesmerized." "This kind of voice, as if wrapped in warmth, was maic and captivated arge number of viewers and Tuantuan herself." "Wow! How can this voice be so melodious?" "Is it a voice changer?" "I''ve never heard a voice changer sound so pleasant." "Wow, I''m in love!" "Why does this voice sound a bit familiar? It''s like the voice of Little Dairen''s dream lover." "It does sound a bit like that! I watched that live broadcast that day." "Tuantuan didn''t see theter barrage, actually, she didn''t see the ones before either. Her mind was a bit flustered by the captivating voice, and she forgot what to do next." "Um... Hello, are you thepanion named Ming?" "Tuantuan found herself stuttering a bit. Was it because she''d been making too many pig noisestely, and her voice was hoarse?" "Yes, thank you for selecting my order. If you have any requests forpanionship, feel free to ask, and I''ll try to amodate." Jiang Siming didn''t know ifpanionship was done this way, but he just said it. "Can I ask you a few questions?" "You can, but nothing about privacy." "Is your voice real, or are you using a sound card?" "It''s real. Myputer''s sound card is the default one, never changed." "Onest question, can you really get four Chicken Dinners out of ten games? I don''t expect four, even one is fine. Can you do it?" "Yes." "It''ll be a 2000-point match; I''ll give you a secondary ount." "That''s also fine." "Then it''s settled, let''s begin!" With each answer Jiang Siming gave, Tuantuan''s heart would skip a beat. This voice was just so soothing and pleasant~ Tuantuan gave Jiang Siming an ount for Chicken Dinners with a score of 2100. Having a score of 2000 is already quite high, and most of the people you match with might not all be experts, but they definitely know how to y. After logging into the ount provided by the other person, Jiang Siming epted Tuantuan''s invitation. At the moment, Jiang Siming had no clue about the other person''s identity or that they were live streaming because every time Tuantuan spoke to him, it was through text. He had no way of knowing. Simultaneously, he clicked on ''Start Game.'' "Roar! The Chicken Dinner journey officially begins! For those new to the live stream, I''ll introduce again. ying alongside me is apanion I found through BiXin, Tuantuan''s chosen gaming partner. His voice is incredibly pleasing to the ears! Ladies, get ready to scream, and gentlemen, feel free to be envious! Haha!" "Oh no, Chen Sigou is crying!" "Sigou knows you''ve abandoned him and is crying in the live stream!" "Tuantuan, you made our Sigou cry. You have to take responsibility!" "Why look forpanionship elsewhere? These people who rely solely on their voice and have no substance in real life are useless!" Chapter 15 : Very Mischievous Gaming Partner The chat rhythm started again, but Tuantuan, who already knew the tricks of live streaming, restrained herself from paying attention. "Let me reiterate, Chen Sigou and I are just friends. Don''t overthink it, the ne''s taking off, parachute time!" After saying this, Tuantuan temporarily ignored the barrage and asked Jiang Siming where to jump. Originally nning to mark a hot-drop location, Jiang Siming noticed a green flickering spot in the wilderness on the map. Surprised, he marked that spot, although it was a full grid away from the flight path. Seeing Jiang Siming''s mark, Tuantuan felt despair inside. "Why would he mark such a spot? He''s even more cautious than I am..." The audienceughed. "Hahaha, someone who marks such a spot dares to call themselves a pro with ten games and four chickens?" "Too funny, this guy''s voice is so pleasing, yet he''s so timid. I, as a girl, wouldn''t even jump in such a ce." "Waiting for the box drop." "Should cancel the order, this guy''s too cautious. Can''t stand it. Better off finding Chen Sigou." ... Despite not wanting tond there, Tuantuan chose to respect Jiang Siming. The main reason she chose Jiang Siming was his voice; she never really believed in his gaming skills from the start. Both parachuted andnded at their destination. Strangely, Tuantuan noticed that Jiang Simingnded several seconds faster than her! When shended, Jiang Siming had already looted an entire building. "Did I not pay attention and free-fell right after pulling my parachute? Must be it." Without dwelling on it, Tuantuan began looting too. "Picked up ''Reaction Speed Talent'' shard *1 (4/4). Shard quantity reached max, can be used directly." Great! Finally got a full set! "Use!" Jiang Siming finally acquired the reaction talent he had been waiting for. A surge of warmth flowed through his body and mind, an indescribable sensation enveloped him. Jiang Siming felt that before, he couldn''t evenplete a simple whack-a-mole game, but now, he could probably smash any gaming console if he yed. The wilderness was quickly searched. Both had poor gear; Tuantuan didn''t even have a helmet. Jiang Siming, noticing the gesture, knew Tuantuan was just amodating him, so he dropped his level one helmet for her. "No, you use it. It''s not much use to me since my skills aren''t that good," Tuantuan kindly declined. However, Jiang Siming was more firm in his refusal, replying, "I don''t need it either. No one can hit my head. You keep it; if I need it, I''ll take it off someone else''s body." "Although your voice is pleasant, you can''t brag like this," Tuantuan couldn''t help butment. Jiang Siming didn''t argue, just smiled and continued on their way. This attitude was quite satisfactory for Tuantuan. Despite his bragging, he didn''t argue, epting her ''education'' humbly, which was quite okay. With her impression slightly changed, Tuantuan started chatting with Jiang Siming. "Hey, where are you from?" "Hmm? Yunnan." "Wow! The City of Travel! Is it far from Lijiang or Dali?" "It''s quite far. My hometown is in a remote town, but the scenery is as good as Dali and Lijiang." "Are you single?" After saying this, Tuantuan felt a bit embarrassed, wondering why she suddenly asked this. "I''ve just ended a six-month single life recently," Jiang Siming replied. "Wow! A guy with such a nice voice isn''t single? So sad, sob!" "Who''d have such a boyfriend? Wouldn''t your ears get pregnant every day?" "Hahaha, as long as he''s not single, my buddy Sigou still has a chance." "Tuantuan, give up. He''s already taken." ... Just as Tuantuan thought that way, Jiang Siming added, "I''m now starting the second half of the year." "?????" "Hahaha, this move!" "Recently ended a six-month single life and now starting the second half, haha! What a line!" "Such a tease! Learning something new here, gonna post it on my socials, hehe." Even Tuantuan found Jiang Siming''s words amusing. She had thought he was a serious and dull person. "Do you know what kind of guys I like?" Deciding to tease him a bit, assuming he wouldn''t know, she nned to make a joke. But unexpectedly, Jiang Siming replied in a cute way that left her stunned. "I dare not ask because I''m afraid I might meet all the criteria." What!? This sudden flirtation,bined with his charming voice, made Tuantuan admit she was blushing. The live stream room instantly buzzed with excitement. "Wow, throwing out jokes effortlessly? Impressive!" "Haha, trying to flirt but getting flirted back, Tuantuan, you''re not holding up!" "Little guy is so yful, love it, sob sob~" "If Chen Sigou had this wit, he''d have already won his beloved." "Laughing so hard, I pped my Bentley and four Nanfu batteries popped out!" "Feels like Chen Sigou''s in trouble; this gaming partner has got some skills." ... The barrage suddenly returned to the main theme due to Jiang Siming''s two sentences, something Tuantuan hadn''t expected. This gaming partner is quite good; apart from not having seen his gaming skills yet, everything else perfectly meets her requirements. Tuantuan decided that if he continued like this, she would be willing to y games with him, even if his gaming skills were not top-notch. To keep things going, she wanted to continue exchanging jokes with Jiang Siming. However, she couldn''t think of anything funny. Just as she was about to say something, Jiang Siming interrupted her. "To the northeast, 130 degrees, I see someone." Enemy spotted. Tuantuan temporarily abandoned her n to entertain everyone and focused on the game. Indeed, in a half-finished building in the northeast direction, two sneaky figures were hopping around searching for items. "Shh! Don''t shoot. Let''s sneak over. Don''t shoot, quietly enter the vige, understand?" Tuantuan lowered her voice, as if speaking loudly would let the other side hear. Although Jiang Siming initially wanted to shoot directly, he remembered the customer aspect and agreed, considering the client''s gaming experience. The two stealthily approached the building with people. Midway, Jiang Siming was startled not by the enemies noticing him but by the female client, who was overly rmed. After walking a few steps, she immediately shouted for Jiang Siming to crouch down. All these surprises made Jiang Siming feel quite ''painful.'' Finally, the two approached closer, crouching on the left and right sides of a wall. "Someone hase out. I''ll take him down. Don''t move; cover the right side," Tuantuanmanded. She was used to these sneaky tactics. "Okay," Jiang Siming replied, showing good cooperation and remaining still. Chapter 16 : The Umbrella King Soon, a burly character yer dashed out from the abandoned building after looting. Just as they were about to call their partner to run, they were shot at by Tuantuan, who swiftly turned and fired. Bang bang bang! The sound of the M416 startled the opponent. Unfortunately, the title of "Douyu''s No. 1 Stewardess" and "Parachuting Little Fairy" wasn''t just for show. Despite preemptively aiming, Tuantuan''s shooting skills fluctuated between good and bad. This time, they missed most shots, hitting only once. The opponent was evidently a pro, considering the 2000-point match. Unfazed by the ambush, they immediately engaged Tuantuan head-on. The opponent''s marksmanship surpassed Tuantuan''s and ended up knocking them down instead. "Ah!!! Big bro, please don''t kill me!" The familiar sound of pig squealing echoed, filling the live broadcast withughter. "Hahaha, terrible marksmanship!" "The Umbre King isn''t just a title; Stewardess Squad is about to board another flight." "That shooting is terrifying; it could scare someone to death." "That dude must be thinking: Are you kidding me?" ... Jiang Siming didn''t hear the pig squealing. Seeing his customer fall, he swiftly emerged from the left, sidestepped, aimed, and shot. Bang bang! Only two shots were fired, and the opponent fell. Tuantuan was lucky not to be finished off by him. "Nice! Bro, you''re awesome! Quick, help me up~" Tuantuan was surprised; she didn''t expect this guy to be somewhat skilled, promptlying to provide support. She didn''t notice Jiang Siming had only fired two shots, both hitting the head. Her sole focus was on surviving; her will to live was incredibly strong. "Hold on, another person ising." Instead of helping her up immediately, Jiang Siming turned and rushed into the residential area. Just acquired the "Reaction Speed Talent," he wasn''t afraid of getting stuck, confident that nobody had faster reflexes! Seeing Jiang Siming run towards him, the remaining guy sneered. This wasn''t FPP mode; as long as he got stuck, he believed Jiang Siming was as good as dead! As Jiang Siming approached closer, that guy skillfully leaned out from the corner of the glitch point''s crate, ready to execute Jiang Siming. But unexpectedly, Jiang Siming''s reaction was much quicker! "Oh dear, why are you charging inside? Staying at the glitch point would have been better, at the glitch point, he''d surely..." Before finishing theint, Tuantuan saw another kill notification pop up in the upper right corner. "yer [mengmengda] used an M16 to headshot kill yer [kkkkk]." Adding to the recent kill, Jiang Siming sessfully wiped out this duo. This time, Tuantuan sensed something amiss; the opponent seemed genuinely skilled. Facing off against the opponent, using the mediocre M16 to take down an enemy at a glitch spot without taking damage herself... unless that person was extremely ipetent, Jiang Siming was really strong! After dealing with the second person, Jiang Siming felt pleased; a white light shed from the opponent''s backpack. Temporarily ignoring the loot, Jiang Siming chose to assist the teammate first. If he had looted instead of assisting the kill, the customer wouldn''t be happy. To maintain hispanion gaming service, Jiang Siming was quite shrewd. Indeed, Jiang Siming''s decision to assist Tuantuan before looting made her more satisfied, secretly feeling like she struck gold. After helping her up, Jiang Siming immediately went back to pick up the loot. "Picked up [mini14 mastery] fragment*1 (1/1), fragment inventory full, can be directly used." Nice, unlocking another sniper rifle. With the 98k, Win94, SKS, and Mini14, Jiang Siming had mastered all four sniper rifles. Although not as convenient as rifle mastery, which only required one fragment to unlock, perhaps sniper rifles were more challenging, requiring unlocking one by one. On the other side, Tuantuan, resurrected with full health, joined Jiang Siming to loot together. "Little brother, I feel you definitely aren''t just 1500 points on paper, are you smurfing?" "That''s indeed my main ount, but I haven''t yed much, so it''s only 1500 points." "So, you''re a gifted yer then?" "You could say that." "Haha, you really aren''t modest at all." "If I were modest, everyone would use me of being pretentious. Sigh, being human is tough." Laughs... Tuantuan let out a pig-likeugh, feeling strange herself. Initially in a bad mood, she didn''t expect her mood to brighten after chatting with this gaming partner for less than twenty sentences. They neatly organized their loot, exchanging weapons. Tuantuan had a fully equipped 98k with an M416. Jiang Siming had an SKS with a sniper, an AK with missing attachments, level 2 armor, level 2 backpack, various health items, and a few grenades and smoke bombs. Unfortunately, Jiang Siming had shot off the opponent''s level 2 helmet, forgetting about it during the fight. So, he was still sporting an empty noggin. "Little brother, take this helmet. You saved me; it''s a thank-you gift." Jiang Siming wanted to decline but seeing the insistence, he graciously epted and put it on. He didn''t like to politely decline with empty words, so since the other person offered, he agreed. Tuantuan was also very happy; she liked Jiang Siming''s personality. He wasn''t overly polite but respected her. This aspect was much better than Chen Sigou. One understood and respected boundaries, maintaining a reasonable distance. The other shamelessly got too close, used all means to tter, without considering her feelings. The difference between the two was clear; anyone would make the right choice. After putting on the helmet, Jiang Siming also got a car left by the opponent here. The two got in the car to drive around while carrying out their strategy. Tuantuan''s mood was extremely high along the way; she even started singing for the audience, but it was through keystrokes, and Jiang Siming couldn''t hear it. Jiang Siming took on the role of the driver. This was at Tuantuan''s request; she knew her driving skills were more of the "road killer" type, so she didn''t n on driving herself. Jiang Siming stepped on the elerator, and the car raced away. They were driving toward the wreckage of an airne, on a desert map with ups and downs, full of pits and sand dunes. Tuantuan was prepared for a few health drops, sitting ready for the inevitable collision. After all, it was difficult to drive in such a ce, especially with a sports car with a very low base. However, to their surprise, the Ferrari, which had an extremely low base and couldn''t even climb hills, strolled effortlessly on these steep and uneven sand dunes under Jiang Siming''s control. Forget losing health; not even a skid urred. The speed remained consistently above 110 miles per hour. Tuantuan even managed to take a painkiller during this wild ride... "Master driver!" "Wow, your driving skills are amazing! At least a ten-year driving experience, right?" "Seeing this, I want to p my boyfriend who always drives recklessly when we y chicken dinner!" "These driving skills are as good as Dumb Little Sister''s ''boyfriend''." "Simr voice, simr driving skills. Could it actually be him?" ... The car suddenly slowed down when passing through an open area. "What''s wrong?" asked Tuantuan, puzzled, while leisurely gnawing on chicken feet. "Somebody''s looting an airdrop. Should we take them down?" Jiang Siming asked, after all, the decision to engage or not was up to the customer. "An airdrop! That''s a dream! How could we not go? Let''s go!" Tuantuan immediately put down the chicken feet and wiped her greasy hands. Jiang Simingplied, driving directly towards the distant airdrop. However, when they were about 300 meters away from the opposite side, he stopped. "Stop this far? I can''t shoot from here. Can we get closer?" Tuantuan said with a distressed face. Beyond a hundred meters, her sniper was practically useless, let alone at this three-hundred-meter distance. Chapter 17 : Sudden Anger She remembered Jiang Siming only had a 3x scope on his SKS, while she herself had a 4x scope; how could he possibly hit anyone? "No need, they can''t escape," Jiang Siming said, lifting his SKS sniper rifle. Through the 3x scope, although the opponent''s figure was distant, they couldn''t evade Jiang Siming''s control. It was his first time using the SKS, a perfect chance to experiment on the two opponents across. Bang! Bang! Two shots! Instantly lifting the helmet of one, wearing only level 2 gear. "Wow!" Tuantuan eximed. Two shots, three hundred meters, using a 3x scope, and these two shots were fired in less than 0.2 seconds. With no time to marvel, Tuantuan quickly raised her own 98k, aiming at the other enemy with a helmet. This person, aware of the ambush, wouldn''t wait to be shot, thus started moving frantically. Bang! One shot, missed! Bang! Two shots, missed! ... Tuantuan fired three consecutive shots, not hitting a single hair of the opponent. Awkwardly coughing twice, then mockingly eximed, "Hit once, pretty devastating." Jiang Siming, watching this, didn''t expose her. Seeing the opponent about to escape their sight, he stopped spectating. Without watching any further, Jiang Siming swiftly adjusted his scope near the opponent. Slightly ahead of the person''s thigh, he fired four shots in quick session. Those who''ve yed Chicken Dinner know hitting a moving target requires shooting ahead due to bullet dy and gravity. However, these leading shots weren''t easy tond. Apart from practice, luck yed a significant role, even for professional yers. Unexpectedly, Jiang Siming''s four shots all hit the sprinting opponent''s thighs, each bullet finding its mark. Tuantuan could only see through the scope the person''s legs being peppered with blood as if exploded. Luckily, she adjusted her settings to green blood; otherwise, it might have been a bit nauseating to watch. All four shots hit, and the person fell to the ground. The livestream fell silent. "What just happened? Did I see that right?" "Perfect hit rate? Seems a bit fake, doesn''t it?" "Thought it was a pro, turns out it''s an cheater. I thought cheaters were extinct; didn''t expect them toe back a yearter." "Feel sorry for Tuantuan; this ount might get banned soon." "Using hacks to y games? Aren''t they afraid of being banned from streaming?" Even Tuantuan herself wondered if Jiang Siming had some sort of tech assist. "Hey...did you activate cheats?" Although Tuantuan was unwilling to believe it, everything before her gave rise to suspicion. "I never use those things," Jiang Siming replied. Tuantuan wanted to ask more but, after considering it, ultimately chose to remain silent. Instead, she switched screens and forwarded Jiang Siming''s ount to the monitoring station. "Everyone, let''s stop discussing this. I''ve sent the ount to the monitoring station, we''ll soon have results." "If he really used cheats, I''ll immediately terminate our partnership contract. But for now, please don''t falsely use or insult him, it''s impolite." Tuantuan addressed everyone, then resumed her game. However, her mood became despondent, filled with doubt. If Jiang Siming really used cheats, she would lose this partnership. The newly achieved live streaming effect would be ruined. "It''s just a game, why cheat? Even if you''re not good at ying, I wouldn''t mind. Sigh!" The more she thought about it, the more irritated Tuantuan became, and her attitude toward Jiang Siming grew more impatient. "You go pick up the crate, I''ve got one already." Jiang Siming, unaware, kindly advised Tuantuan and got into the car, nning to take her to the airdrop. Unexpectedly, the response he received was a cold refusal. "I don''t want that stuff, you take it! I''ll go for the airdrop myself, don''t follow me!" Frustrated, Tuantuan turned away from Jiang Siming and ran toward the zone alone. Jiang Siming was bewildered, unsure why the sudden anger from the other person? Despite being upset, he wasmitted to fulfilling his partnership duty. Jiang Siming quickly caught up but abandoned the car and didn''t pick up the crate. "I said don''t follow me! If you keep following, I''ll give you a bad review and cancel our contract!" Tuantuan angrily shouted. Jiang Siming stopped in ce, and Tuantuan stubbornly ran towards the zone without looking back. The zone quickly approached, but Jiang Siming didn''t move. The zone covered him, and he started losing health rapidly. In the lonely desert map, Jiang Siming seemed unusually helpless. Tuantuan, who had run far, found it strange that her teammate''s marker remained stationary. Just as she was about to inquire, she heard Jiang Siming sigh, then he left theirmunication tform. Subsequently, a plug symbol appeared behind Jiang Siming''s ID marker in the bottom left corner. This symbol indicated that the other person had gone offline, quit the game? Tuantuan was stunned; she hadn''t expected Jiang Siming to voluntarily exit the game. Moreover, within moments, a message arrived on Tuantuan''s mobile ount, refunding her the entire partnership fee, apanied by a message: "I''m sorry. Although I don''t know why you''re upset, I think it''s rted to me. The quality of this session wasn''t up to par. Please don''t be angry. I won''t ept the money. Also, please don''t give me a bad review because this is my job, I need it. Thank you." Seeing this message, Tuantuan felt a pang of sorrow in her heart. She didn''t expect Jiang Siming to have such a resolute personality. Did she just scold him? But if you hadn''t used cheats, why would I scold you? I actually really enjoy ying with you... Jiang Siming''s disappearance left her unable to speak to anyone. Her fans sensed Tuantuan''s low spirits and rushed to console her. "It''s alright, Tuantuan. This is the right attitude towards cheaters. You did well, we support you!" "An cheater is still an cheater, being so fussy. He doesn''t like being criticized?" "This guy acts tough but can''t handle a few words? Let''s go give him bad reviews!" "Yeah, let this cheater learn a lesson!" ... Her fans were furious, and Tuantuan felt lost. She immediately said, "Please don''t go! This has nothing to do with him; it''s my own issue. Please don''t disturb others, I beg you!" At that moment, another YY ount entered Tuantuan''s channel, not Jiang Siming but Chen Sigou. "Tuantuan, I heard you encountered an cheater using cheats forpanionship?" Chen Sigou, seemingly ''kind'' and ''considerate,'' promptly approached. Ignoring him, Tuantuan, Chen Sigou continued ''kindly'' tofort her: "You''re good in every way, just too soft-hearted. Such people need to be exposed. Think about it, if you hadn''t discovered it in time, when your ount gets banned, your livestreaming career will be affected. So, we must disgrace him. Cheaters don''t deserve work. I''ve already told my fans to give him bad reviews. We must deal with this jerk!" Chapter 18 : Tuantuans Crying "Sigou said it well!" "Nicely put! The whole family of cheater! Trying to earn money by cheating, pah!" "Sigou is real men. When youpare both sides, Tuantuan, don''t you see it clearly in your heart?" "Just checked the likes, the ratings have been dropped below 3.0. Haha, feels good." "Not just that, there''s a bunch of people below thements, insulting him. How dare they bully our Tuantuan, thinking they can get away with it!" "This guy is probably crying in the toilet now, haha, feels good!" ... Seeing thements from fans, Tuantuan immediately checked the likes. Sure enough, under Jiang Siming''s gamingpanionship list, it was all negative reviews. Loads of abuse, even catching the attention of the higher-ups at Bixin, who immediately removed Jiang Siming''s rmended status and banned the ount. Seeing all this, Tuantuan felt immensely guilty. Although Jiang Siming cheated, he didn''t cause her any harm. In fact, he had been very nice. Even when she scolded him, he didn''t resist or argue back, and he refunded the fees. But shepletely ruined his work... Tuantuan felt muddled and conflicted, not knowing whether to feel sour, sweet, bitter, or spicy. Just then, a response came from the monitoring station. In front of all the audience, Tuantuan opened the email and waspletely stunned. The email read: "This ount has no anomalies." This was the reply from the monitoring station, with the chance of a detection error being one in a million. So far, no one had been wrongfully used after being checked. Furthermore, Tencent announced that in case of a detection error, they were willing to pay ten millionpensation to the ount owner! When this news broke, countless hackers and cheat-making teams started acting, trying to create extremely hard-to-detect cheats to im the ten million. However, sadly, a year had passed, and no one had received thepensation. No anomalies whatsoever. This meant the other party hadn''t used any cheats, not even macros on their mouse! The scene fell silent. The usually lively Tuantuan''s live broadcast was unprecedentedly quiet. From the broadcaster to the viewers, not a single person spoke. Finally breaking the silence was Tuantuan''s crying. After six months of live streaming, both old and new followers witnessed Tuantuan so emotionally broken for the first time. Always carefree, constantly cheerful andughing, today she cried, and cried so sadly. This was the first time in Tuantuan''s memory that her emotions were so out of control, crying like a child. She loves tough, loves to joke around, loves to be goofy, but she never loves to cry. Fans rushed tofort her. "Tuantuan, don''t cry. It''s hard to hear you cry." "We misunderstood, turns out he wasn''t cheating after all." "Strong and capable but criticized as a cheat, shame on those who did it, I''ve lost faith." "Tuantuan, don''t cry. Let''s go give him positive likes to boost his ratings back up and then apologize." "His work was ruined by all of you. Is an apology useful now?" "People who judge hastily without understanding the situation, can''t you hold back until things are clear?" ... Fans''forting words didn''t work; Tuantuan continued crying, deeply saddened. Though the webcam wasn''t on, everyone could imagine Tuantuan on the other side of the screen with tears streaming down her face. Her devoted fans felt extreme pity but were helpless. Chen Sigou, who had remained silent since reading the email, finally spoke up. "Tuantuan, please don''t cry. This isn''t your fault. I..." Before finishing his sentence, Chen Sigou was permanently banned from Tuantuan''s YY channel. Not only that, Tuantuan rushed into Chen Sigou''s livestream, returning all the gifts he had intentionally given her to please her during this period. When leaving, Tuantuan left a barrage message that left Chen Sigou looking ashen-faced after reading it. "Starting today, our friendship ends here. I''ll say it onest time: I never liked you. It was all in your imagination." After sending the message, Tuantuan apologized tearfully to everyone and ended the stream. Suddenly, in thete night, the Douyu Forum became lively once again. Tuantuan, the newly popr Douyu streamer with nearly ten million TikTok followers, cried out of regret for ming the wrong person. She publicly rified and cut ties with another minor streamer, Chen Sigou. This news, akin to a celebrity scandal, became a sensation in the Douyumunity. Before the heat from the previous news settled, with Dumb Little Sister''s love affair scandal, now Tuantuan was involved in another incident. But this was more serious than Dumb Little Sister''s, as she had cried on the live broadcast, unlike Dumb Little Sister. Many were curious about the reason, and fans who were watching the live broadcast revealed the truth. Upon investigation on the likes tform, some sharp-eyedizens found something unusual! From Jiang Siming''s gaming assistance information, they discovered a screenshot of Jiang Siming''s main ount ID data. The data seemed ordinary, even a bit low. However, what caught everyone''s attention wasn''t the scores or KDA; it was the ID name in the screenshot! [Ming] Many recognized this ID right away! Wasn''t this the rumored boyfriend of Dumb Little Sister, the sharpshooter known as the Sniper God that Weishen wanted to recruit into his team? This discovery was like a bombshell in the Douyumunity, instantly increasing the hype. These past few days'' news on Douyu, all seemed to originate from one person, and that person was just an ordinary user! With a few storiesbined, the hype naturally escted. A super skilled yer, Dumb Little Sister''s rumored boyfriend, Weishen''s recruitment, and now a voice actor heartthrob with Tuantuan in tears for him¡ªthese hot topics all stemmed from the same ordinary user. Suddenly, the ID "Ming" became the hottest unknown user on Douyu, even hotter than the previous incidents involving certain ountants or the boredom-induced fish fin theft. The other two ordinary users had long exhausted their means and were alreadynguishing in trouble, relying solely on crazily gifting. However, "Ming" took apletely different path. His poprity was purely wholesome and positive. Even the higher-ups at Douyu couldn''t stay still, considering bringing Jiang Siming to Douyu as a streamer. If it were a tycoon, they wouldn''t be so confident, but given that the person was a gamingpanion. If they offered substantialpensation, they believed the other party would likely agree, especially when they were willing to work for twenty yuan per hour. Dumb Little Sister, who was streaming that night, naturally received this news. She couldn''t ignore it because the barrage of messages filled her screen... "Old woman, your boyfriend''s been found!" "Old woman, your husband was wronged and lost his job!" "You''ve been down these past few days, now your boyfriend''s found. Aren''t you happy?" "Match made in heaven, your boyfriend''s bullied by Tuantuan. Go take revenge!" "Your boyfriend''s wrongly used by Tuantuan and her fans, lost his job!" ... Initially skeptical of these messages, Dumb Little Sister confirmed it with her bestie, Erqian, who immediately verified it. She then checked the likes tform on her phone and indeed found Jiang Siming. These past days, Erqian, who knew Dumb Little Sister''s state best, noticed she was barely present, lost in thoughts, a walking zombie. Eating, walking, even going shopping with her turned into short-circuit episodes, a clear lovesick condition. Now, finding Jiang Siming, a long-lost smile returned to Dumb Little Sister''s face, but it quickly faded. Jiang Siming''s likes ount had been suspended, leaving Dumb Little Sister unable to contact him or ce an order. Thankfully, she was on good terms with the customer service at the likes tform. She managed to obtain Jiang Siming''s phone number from them. However, upon calling, she discovered that he was already on another call... Chapter 19 : One Month of Booking To be honest, Jiang Siming never expected his firstpanionship business to turn out like this. It was going smoothly at first, but suddenly it went downhill. And soon, for some unknown reason, a bunch of people started cursing and leaving negative reviews under his gaming service order. As a result, Jiang Siming''s gaming service was canceled before it even began, leaving himpletely puzzled. With his work ruined, Jiang Siming lost interest in ying games. Feeling a bit upset, he was about to go to bed when a phone call interrupted him. Upon answering, he immediately recognized the caller as the client he had epted an order from. "I''ve already refunded your money. Why can''t you just let it go?" Jiang Siming was also irritated. Anyone would find it hard not to get upset in such a situation. Previously, since she was a customer, Jiang Siming had been amodating, not wanting his work to be disrupted. Even though it was only twenty credits per hour, Jiang Siming was the kind of person who took his chosen path seriously and was determined to tread it conscientiously. But now that his work had been ruined, Jiang Siming no longer needed to treat her as a client. "...I''m sorry... I really didn''t mean to... How much do you want? I''llpensate you, alright?" Tuantuan''s voice, no longer serene, sounded timid and pleading for forgiveness. "Do you think I''m all about money? Do you think having money means you can buy anything?" "No, no... I really didn''t expect to cause such serious consequences for you. Listen to my exnation, I''m a streamer, and here''s what happened today..." Tuantuan exined the whole incident to Jiang Siming, including her genuine thoughts at the time. She admitted that she acted out of anger because she did suspect Jiang Siming of using cheats. Only then did Jiang Siming understand the whole story. It seemed it wasn''t entirely her fault. "Although it was my fans who ruined your work, I have an undeniable responsibility. Don''t worry, I''ll do everything I can to make it up to you." "Forget it, let''s just say I''m unlucky. After all, I only took one order from you, so I''m not at a loss." Jiang Siming didn''t want to pursue the matter further; ultimately, it was a misunderstanding. It wasn''t her who sabotaged his work; it was those inte users who were influenced impulsively by malicious intentions. There was no way to hold them ountable. Should he go to her livestream and confront every one of her fans? Jiang Siming wasn''t that petty. "No, I must make amends. Little Ming, I''ve exined the situation to the customer service, and they''re in contact with the higher-ups to lift the ban on your ount. Once it''s resolved, I''ll mobilize all my fans to help boost your reputation and reviews!" "Also, I''ve prepared apensation of two hundred thousand, and..." Tuantuan hadn''t finished speaking when Jiang Siming quickly interrupted her. "Hey, stop right there. I won''t ept money. A person of integrity doesn''t drink from a thief''s well or take pity upon someone''s stolen food. If you mention this kind of reward again, I''ll hang up." Jiang Siming was very serious; despite being poor, he had principles. Even without this "shattered fragments" thing, he wouldn''t ept such money, even though it could be consideredpensation for him. "Yet his gaming service didn''t cost him a penny. For his first order, he received apensation of two hundred thousand credits. This is beyond belief." At the same time, he was somewhat envious of how quickly streamers make money. Looking at thevishness of it all, it''s like being a real tycoon. "Well... fine... I won''t say more. How about I book your services for a year?" Rolling his eyes, Jiang Siming teased, "Booking for a year? Are you nning to sponsor me?" Tuantuan blushed at the other end of the phone; it did feel a bit like sponsoring someone... "Okay, okay. Besides normal orders, I won''t take any longer ones than a day. Don''t try to bargain with me; otherwise, there''s no deal." Jiang Simingid down his terms. Going against the grain by arguing with the gaming service customer, he stood firm on his conditions. There was no room for resistance or haggling from Tuantuan, who could only agree. Feeling relieved that Jiang Siming forgave her, Tuantuan was in high spirits, happier than ever before. "Little Ming, does this mean we''re friends now?" Tuantuan asked, both expectant and afraid of a rejection. "If this big-shot streamer doesn''t mind this small fry, then of course, we''re friends," Jiang Siming answered openly. Tuantuan, even more delighted, covered the phone receiver, feeling ecstatic, her long legs kicking wildly under the table. Her grandmother, returning from a stroll, was baffled by what she saw in her granddaughter''s room... "Uh... Little Ming, can we exchange WeChat IDs?" "Sure." Just after exchanging WeChat, Tuantuan received a message from her friend saying that Jiang Siming''s ount on the gaming tform was unbanned. "Little Ming, your ount is unbanned! I won''t tell you more. I''ll ce an order. Let''s y games together again!" After saying this, an eager Tuantuan hung up, opened the gaming tform to find Jiang Siming''s profile. Unexpectedly, Jiang Siming''s ount not only got unbanned but also got upgraded to a gold-tier gaming service, charging 300 credits per hour! Moreover, his ount was featured on the tform''s hot rmendations, easily visible when someone essed the gaming service. It was the tform''spensation to Jiang Siming. Not just that, Jiang Siming''s ount rating went back to a perfect 10, with numerous positive reviews flooding in. This genuinely made Tuantuan happy for Jiang Siming. She nned to ce an order immediately and inform him about this good news. However, when she went to ce the order, she was stunned. Jiang Siming''s services had already been pre-booked by someone else. And they booked it for an entire month. At 300 credits per hour, even if he yed for just five hours a day, that''s nearly 50,000 credits for a month! "Who is this ''I''m Not to A'' person? How could they book a whole month in one go? What am I supposed to do now?" Tuantuan felt at a loss and on the verge of tears once again. Opening the ount of "I''m Not to A," Tuantuan hoped to negotiate with the user. She wanted to see if the order could be canceled. She was willing topensate the user in full, even double or triple the amount. However, to her dismay, the user had set up a "Do Not Disturb" mode, making it impossible for her to contact them. Casually clicking on the positive reviews, Tuantuan was surprised to find out that they weren''t from her own fans. While she did have some fans, she hadn''t informed them yet, so there weren''t many peopleing to leave positive reviews and apologize. Most of the individuals leaving positive reviews had one thing inmon... "The Old Woman Fan Club is here! Special visit for a marriage proposal!" "Ming, please ept the old woman! She''s got lovesickness just thinking about you!" "Following the call of ''I''m Not to A,'' I''m here to stand by Ming. Ming''s skills cannot be fake!" "Ming, the god, has been wronged. Don''t be afraid; our Old Woman Fan Club will always support you!" "The old woman said to help you clear your name, so here we are!" Chapter 20 : Just Like Love She just remembered the news caused by that silly girl falling in love with a stranger a few days ago. She didn''t expect that the one she fell for was... Little Ming. As Tuantuan realized this, her heart tightened, as if something precious was being coveted and observed by others. "No, even though you liked Little Ming first, Little Ming hasn''t agreed to be with you. I still have a chance! Fairpetition, I won''t lose!" Thinking this way, Tuantuan regained her confidence and prepared to share the good news with Jiang Siming. However, she didn''t expect Jiang Siming was also on another call... Jiang Siming truly hadn''t expected that within two days, he''d have two female anchors after him, and both were very popr. Just after ending Tuantuan''s call, he received a call from that silly girl. The silly girl also disclosed her identity and intentions. During their warm conversation, Jiang Siming couldn''t possibly reject her. She had even booked him for a month. Regarding this month-longmitment, Jiang Siming felt a bit troubled. Would he really have to apany her for a whole month? "Brother Ming, don''t worry. Although I''ve booked you for a month, I won''t force you to y with me, or set specific times. I''ll pay for the month, as long as you can y when you have time." The silly girl was very understanding. Upon hearing this, Jiang Siming naturally breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Thank you then. That day when you invited me, I had something to do and wasn''t at theputer. When I came back to the lobby after handling things, you had just logged off." Jiang Si Ming felt it necessary to rify. After all, he had made the girl wait for him for an hour. "Really?" The silly girl was pleasantly surprised. She had thought Jiang Siming was intentionally avoiding her, but it turned out to be a misunderstanding and a coincidence. "Really." "Hehe~" The silly girl, relieved from her worries, felt extremely happy, and her sweet smile returned to her face. With a somewhat unusual feeling and the stealthy little secrets of a young girl in her heart... "Brother Ming, do you have time now? Shall we y a game together?" Regaining his lostpanionship job cheered up Jiang Siming, who was originally feeling down. Seeing it was still early, Jiang Siming agreed. The silly girl, who had been away from herputer for almost half an hour, returned from outside to her live streamingputer. Her friend, Erqian, who had been covering for her live stream, immediately stood up to vacate the seat. "How''s it going? You seem really happy," Erqian teased. "Wow! Brother Ming agreed to duo-y with me!" The silly girl didn''t hide her joy. The audience in the live streaming room smelled the scent of love in the air. "Tsk tsk, earlier she was all gloomy and on the brink of despair, and now she''s reborn?" "Indeed, a woman in love has negative IQ." "The old woman is deeply trapped in the swamp of love and can''t extricate herself!" "Olddy, don''t be too happy too soon. It seems Tuantuan also likes Ming God. You''ve got a rival." "The one above is right. Tuantuan seems to have fallen for Ming God too. Ah, when will I ever be as outstanding as him?" ... The chat said many things, but the silly girl didn''t have the mood to read them now. She quickly put on her headphones, logged into the game, and waited on YY. This posture of waiting for a lover is just like being in love... "You look like a consort waiting for the emperor''s favor," Erqian teased. "Get lost!" the silly girl blushed and scolded with a smile. Before long, Jiang Siming''s YY profile picture appeared in the channel. "Brother Ming, you''re here!" "Yeah, did you invite me, or should I invite you?" "Sure!" Overjoyed, the silly girl pulled Jiang Siming into the game lobby. Unlike her, who adorned her game character with various skins, Jiang Siming''s character was just an ordinary male character in a cheap short-sleeved shirt. Coincidentally, there was a major update for yerUnknown''s Battlegrounds (PUBG) today, introducing a snow map that they hadn''t yed before. Jiang Siming and the silly girl, both unfamiliar with the map, found themselves in a snowyndscape. As a girl from the southern part of the country, the silly girl couldn''t help but let out a scream of excitement at the sight of the snowy scenery, feeling surrounded by romantic vibes. "It''s so beautiful, right, Brother Ming!" Jiang Si Ming, also seeing the new map for the first time, couldn''t help but nod in approval. The map designed by Bluehole was truly bing more and more beautiful. From inds to deserts, then to Miramar, and now the snowy terrain, the exquisite level of each map was continuously improving. With the funding from Mr. Vine, Bluehole had transformed from a small workshop into argepany, making billions in game profits every year. PUBG had be the leading first-person shooter (FPS) game, rivalling even League of Legends in global yer online numbers and sometimes surpassing it. After three years of operation, PUBG was still popr, with the number of yers in chicken-eating matches and LOL yers in inte cafes being almost equal. In Jiang Siming''s world, PUBG''s anti-cheating measures were highly sessful,bined with effective publicity and continuous updates to the game content. This made the game longsting and increasingly popr. Many celebrities also loved ying it. "Brother Ming,e and see quickly!" The silly girl called out in haste. Jiang Siming found her next to a utility pole. "What''s wrong?" The silly girl picked up a snowball from her waist and said to Jiang Siming, "Learn from me, switch to the first-person perspective, and throw the snowball at the utility pole!" Although he didn''t understand why, Jiang Siming followed her instructions. With a thud, the snowball hit the utility pole, and the snowkes sshed, twinkling like tiny stars under the sunlight. "There are stars! Brother Ming, did you see them?" the silly girl asked with innocence. Jiang Siming chuckled and replied in agreement, "Yeah, I saw them. They look nice." "Hehe," the silly girl giggled happily. For some reason, all the viewers in the live broadcast couldn''t help but smile. They seemed to witness the budding of a beautiful love. The waiting time soon ended, and everyone boarded the ne. Over the snowy city, the aerial view was breathtaking. Jiang Siming was also immersed in the vast and beautiful snowyndscape. Unexpectedly, he noticed a red light shing in a seaside location on the snowy map. "Let''s go here," Jiang Siming marked the spot immediately, and the silly girl naturally had no objections. Even if Jiang Siming pointed to the ocean, she wouldn''t hesitate to jump. As they left the ne and glided towards their destination, they found that the parachute technique had been updated. Holding down shift would now cause a vertical descent. The altitude and the distance to glide had significant differences, andnding involved a sideways somersault. This undoubtedly increased the difficulty of parachuting, making it more realistic. However, this posed no obstacles for Jiang Siming. Instead, he found it more manageable. The higher the difficulty, the longer it took for others tond after him. In fact, by the time Jiang Siming had alreadynded, the silly girl was still descending rapidly, her parachute not even open yet. If this silly girl were an opponent, Jiang Siming could make her die in the Nordic snowy sky without even opening her parachute. Chapter 21 : Fight Between Two Women "Wow, Brother Ming, why are you always so quick when parachuting? Can you teach me?" Dumb Little Sister admired Jiang Siming''s parachuting skills, and it wasn''t just her audience in the live broadcast room; they all wanted to learn. "Ming, teach us! We''ll give you the old woman (Dumb Little Sister)!" "Yeah, Ming, please teach us. I really don''t know how to do this new parachuting technique." "Today''s update, the parachuting technique I was proud of is now useless. So sad!" "Old woman, quickly ask your man to teach us. We''re waiting!" "One Pair A, your husband is so skilled, let him teach us a couple of moves!" ... Seeing the chat ofments saying ''your man'' and ''your husband,'' Dumb Little Sister''s face turned red, but she found it amusing. "Brother Ming, my fans are also asking you to teach them parachuting technique. Just give them a few pointers, please?" Just because of those two fans who spoke so well, Dumb Little Sister stood up for them! Upon hearing this, Jiang Siming didn''t hold back and generously taught them the parachuting technique. He wasn''t afraid of others learning because it wasn''t something you could master just by being taught. It involved various factors like gravity in the game,nding speed, parachute control, etc., which couldn''t be overlooked at all. This difficulty level was no less than solving a doctoral-level math problem. Ordinary people might gain a second at most, and even top experts might only shave off an extra two seconds at best. However, nobody knew the difficulty involved, listening to Jiang Siming''s selfless teachings. The audience thanked Jiang Siming generously while hurriedly taking notes. "Duke [Angel''s Wings] gifted Dumb Little Sister''s live broadcast room a Super Rocket x1!" [Angel''s Wings]: "This rocket isn''t for you, it''s for the awesome Ming!" "Count [Brook] gifted Dumb Little Sister''s live broadcast room two rockets!" [Brook]: "Agreeing with Duke +1, just to thank the generous teachings of Ming God!" ... One after another, there were over a dozen live stream viewers sending gifts, from Super Rockets, Rockets, nes, or even VIP subscriptions, big and small. The total value was approximately around seven to eight thousand cash. Dumb Little Sister immediately reported happily to Jiang Siming, "Brother Ming, many people have sent gifts because of your generous teaching. They made it clear it''s for you. Later, I''ll transfer the gift money to you." Jiang Siming was somewhat surprised but gracefully declined, "That''s not necessary. If someday I do start a live stream, you guys can juste and say a few words to support." "Wow, Brother Ming, are you also going to start a live stream?" Dumb Little Sister was thrilled; this way, she and Jiang Siming would be in the same field and have more topics to discuss. "Just thinking about it, nothing confirmed yet," Jiang Siming replied. Seeing how Dumb Little Sister quickly received thousands in gifts in such a short time during the live stream, it was clear about the profits in live streaming. Naturally, Jiang Siming also wanted to join in. "Okay, when you start, I''ll bring all my fans to support!" Dumb Little Sister promised. "Haha, aren''t you afraid that all of us will switch over to Ming God''s side?" "When Ming God goes live, I''ll head over there!" "With Ming God''s current poprity, if he starts on Douyu, his poprity will explode for sure!" "Let''s pre-book a rocket!" ... Dumb Little Sister proudly smiled and said, "I don''t care, I''m just so happy that you all support Brother Ming." Her best friend watching the live stream beside her facepalmed. "This silly girl, she''s sold herself out too quickly, hasn''t she?" In a yful moment, Jiang Siming ran to a sea ship and found a red fragment hidden in the corner at the stern. "Acquired [Singing Talent] *1 (2/5), fragment count is full, cannot be used for now." It was yet another fragment for Singing Talent, seemingly useless. But better to have it than not, maybe it woulde in handy someday. Putting away the fragment, Jiang Siming began searching for equipment. With [Map Proficiency] in hand, even in a new snow map, he had a clear understanding of the geography and equipment distribution. He quickly found some rich spots and gathered a good set of equipment. The snow map also had helmets, unlike other maps where helmets onlye from airdrops. Jiang Siming and Dumb Little Sister each had a helmet. Whether it was a silenced 98k or a fully equipped M4, they had it all, equipped to the point of envy. Usually, for Dumb Little Sister to find such equipment, she''d have to crawl through danger, wary of every rustle in the grass, fearing someone might attack and steal her gear. But with Jiang Siming by her side, Dumb Little Sister yed quite freely. Ignoring all worries, she followed Jiang Siming, picking up guns and running, hopping around, even taking the time to ''analyze'' their shoe sizes based on the footprints they left in the snow. Viewers jokinglymented that Ming God was ying with a fool. Just then, a familiar Douyu ID entered Dumb Little Sister''s livestream. "Oh my! Tuantuan is here!" "Indeed! Little Tuan Tuan is in Dumb Little Sister''s stream!" "Whye over instead of streaming?" "Oh no, is Tuantuan here to catch someone red-handed?" "Get ready for this year''s epic showdown, Douyu queen confronts her lover!" Tuantuan''s arrival disrupted the rhythm of the chat. Unfortunately, the anticipated confrontation didn''t happen. Instead, Tuantuan didn''t e to investigate'' but greeted everyone with a smile through the chat. Then, she gifted ten Super Rockets in Dumb Little Sister''s stream. Dumb Little Sister, seeing this, felt a bit nervous but still thanked Tuantuan with a smile. "Thanks to Little Tuantuan for the ten Super Rockets. Are these rockets also for Brother Ming? Don''t worry, I''ll transfer your gift money to Brother Mingter." Dumb Little Sister''s words carried a hint of asserting her authority, subtly showing off that she had Jiang Siming''s WeChat. The audience was ecstatic seeing this, as if they were witnessing a pce drama of intrigue between two women. Many viewers even grabbed their sunflower seeds and chairs, ready to enjoy this drama like a gripping TV series. However, Tuantuan didn''t ept the gesture and replied: "No need, I also have Little Ming''s WeChat. I wanted topensate him with money earlier, but Little Ming didn''t ept it. This rocket is for you." Oh, wow! It''s getting even more intriguing! Tuantuan''s response carried depth as well: ''I have Little Ming''s WeChat too, no need to show off. This gift is for you. Don''t bite the hand that feeds you. You can''t touch me.'' "Thank you so much! I watch your livestreams when I''m free; they''re so interesting. How about teaming up sometime?" Dumb Little Sister made a move in Tai Chi¡ªweing without appearing aggressive. But Tuantuan was even more direct. "Sure, I''m free right now! Can you wait for me after your match? I also want to y with Little Ming." This... Dumb Little Sister was stunned, not expecting this fierce offensive from her ''rival.'' The audience thoroughly enjoyed it,ughing their hearts out. "So entertaining! Hahaha, a hundred times better than those pce dramas!" "I can''t stopughing! The showdown between two big streamers, every move is lethal!" "Old Women, don''t agree! She''s here to steal your man!" "Tuantuan and Dumb Little Sister are getting into it, this is really intense!" "Ming God must have some incredible luck, attracting two big streamers at the same time!" Chapter 22 : Ultra Funny Aesthetics! Sun, a Douyu executive watching this live broadcast, appeared excited as if he''d found a treasure. He seemed to envision a rising superstar PUBG streamer. Immediately, he made a call to his subordinate. "Contact this person, Ming, at once. Spare no expense to sign him! Change the originally proposed B-level contract to an A-level. If they refuse, escte it to an S-level!" The subordinate was shaken; Douyu''s contracts range from D to S levels. D-level contracts are insignificant, C-level indicates some fame. B-level contracts are for fairly popr streamers. A-level belongs to the realm of well-known streamers, typically with around 50,000 followers who''ve purchased a fan badge, each costing at least ten dors. Streamers with 50,000 fan badges typically maintain an average audience of around a million viewers per stream. S-level streamers are top-tier; currently, both Little Tuantuan and Dumb Little Sister hold S-level contracts. Their fan bases exceed 100,000, and their streams average around two million viewers. Above this, there''s the SS level. However, within Douyu, only two people have this contract: the recently returned former professional yer, the current streaming king PDD, and the remaining milk powder king, the eight-million-strong warrior, Xuxu Baby. Both of their contracts are double S-level, with fan bases nearly reaching a terrifying one million or more. Douyu''s willingness to sign Jiang Siming with an S-level contract is an unprecedented exception. Initially, Douyu only intended to negotiate a B-level or at most an A-level contract with Jiang Siming. But after witnessing Jiang Siming''s exceptional skills, executive Sun foresaw Jiang''s promising future. Another crucial point is that Douyu hasn''t seen a PUBG top yer for a long time. Here, being the top yer doesn''t just refer to poprity but also requires top-notch skills. Although they''ve brought in XDD, OMG, and 17 other experts, their skills aremendable, but their popritycking. After Weishen left, Douyu couldn''t surpass Huya, which boasts 4AM''s full team, in the PUBG scene. This is Douyu''s pain, and Sun values Jiang Siming''s potential, hence the unprecedented use of an S-level contract. ... Two minutester, the castle returned to tranquility. If not for the scattered boxes on the ground, no one would have imagined the ferocity of the battle that took ce here. Dumb Little Sister and Tuantuan, two girls who had been hiding by a castle wall, heard the absence of gunfire and cautiously asked Jiang Siming. "Is it safe toe out now? Are they gone for the moment?" After Jiang Siming''s reassurance, the two girls rxed and ran into the castle to search for items. The girls remained silent, but their faces, filled with admiration and hearts, betrayed their feelings on the other side of theputer. It''s not that they didn''t want to speak, but they werepletely engrossed and hadn''t recovered from the excitement yet... A total of ten kills, three squads, twelve people. Two of them were killed by members of other squads, the rest were eliminated by Jiang Siming. Among the ten boxes, three were glowing: two gold and one white. The loot was rich; Jiang Siming rushed to collect the first gold fragment. "Collected [30000 credits] fragment *1 (1/1), fragment quantity reached maximum, can be used directly." Thirty thousand, not bad at all. Jiang Siming happily collected it and dashed to pick up the second gold fragment. He initially assumed it was credits but was surprised to find that this fragment offered somethingpletely different. "Picked up [Audi RS7] fragment *1 (1/2), fragment quantity notplete, unable to use temporarily." Audi RS7? Isn''t that a car? Jiang Siming took a moment to look up the price of this car. Wow, the base price is at least 1.8 million Credits. If you buy it, it''d be at least 2.3 million. "I didn''t expect a gold fragment to yield something like this!" Jiang Siming was delighted; with just one more fragment, he''d own a luxury car! Temporarily suppressing this excitement, Jiang Siming headed towards the final white fragment, which turned out to be a gaming skill. "Picked up [Melee Weapon Mastery] fragment *1 (1/1), fragment quantity reached maximum, can be used directly." It''s a bit underwhelming, but it mighte in handy; having an extra skill is always good. The three thoroughly searched the castle. Coincidentally, an airdrop appeared 500 meters away from them. Outside the castle, there was a three-wheeled motorcycle, perfect for three people. If they were a team of four, it would have been tricky to divide. As soon as the two girls spotted the three-wheeler, their eyes lit up. Almost simultaneously, they holstered their weapons and rushed towards the motorcycle. If one didn''t know better, they''d think they were racing for the airdrop. Dumb Little Sister, closer to the three-wheeler, swiftly pressed ''F'' and switched to the second seat. The second seat was at the back of the motorcycle, allowing her to wrap her arms around Brother Ming''s waist. The two girls were vying for this seat for the emotional closeness it offered. Those who understood were equally amused. Failing to grab the second seat, Tuantuan felt regretful. If only she had spotted the vehicle earlier. Would she have to settle for a cramped spot on the side? Would it look any different from parents taking a child? Reluctant to give in, Tuantuan quickly turned to Jiang Siming with a request. "Little Brother Ming, how about I drive this time? I''ve never driven in the snow before. I want to experience driving in snowy terrain." Without suspicion, Jiang Siming agreed, taking the third edge seat. "You!" Dumb Little Sister was frustrated. She hadn''t expected this cunning move; it was so sneaky. "Chuckling~ Chuckling~" Tuantuanughed like a fool, upying the driver''s seat without hesitation, with Dumb Little Sister behind. "Dumb Dumb, hold on tight, feel free to hug my waist!" Tuantuan smirked. Dumb Little Sister snorted, not wanting to hug her waist at all!!! Under Tuantuan''s control, the three headed towards the airdrop. Though the journey was bumpy and nearly led to a crash, they safely arrived at their destination without incidents. No one else had reached the airdrop yet. Quickly looting it, they found only one MK14 inside. As Jiang Siming didn''t know how to use this weapon, he gave it to Dumb Little Sister, whocked a sniper rifle, while he held onto an SKS. Inside were three Level 3 helmets and three Level 3 vests. Both girls didn''t move and willingly handed them over to Jiang Siming. VIP treatment in full disy. Interestingly, there was also a Snow Ghillie Suit in the airdrop. Tuantuan took it, and after putting it on, she transformed into a snowman, happily emitting chicken-like clucking sounds. "Willump! I''ll save you, Willump! I''ll save you! I can save you. I can..." Tuantuan imitated the voice of the Snowman Knight from League of Legends, Nunu. Although it was funny, it was also surprisingly urate. Dumb Little Sister was amused by her and started imitating Mundo. "Mundo not remember Mundo before Mundo was Mundo!" The deliberately ''rough'' voice couldn''t help but make people burst intoughter, and the two girlsughed heartily together. "Little Brother Ming, you also try one." "Yeah, Brother Ming, your voice is so nice, give it a try!" With their yful behavior, the two girls even wanted to involve Jiang Siming. Jiang Siming replied, "I often feel out of ce with you both because I''m not silly enough." Hahaha... everyone burst intoughter, what a golden line! Unable to resist the ''pleading'' of the two girls, Jiang Siming could only indulge them. "Who should I imitate..." Jiang Siming thought for a moment and quickly came up with an idea. Chapter 23 : Looting Mastery "I bloom amidst ughter, much like a flower in the dawn." A deep and powerful sensation filled with a sense of killing intent surged, enveloping as if surrounded by a 3D sound system, where all around echoed 5.0 surround sound, real and incredibly breathtaking! "Wow!" Everyone''s expressions turned baffled. Jin''s original voice actor was Shen Lei, a first-tier national voice actor. However, now that everyone heard it, they actually felt Jiang Siming''s voice was even better! But that''s not all. "You, filled with poetry! You, embodying boundless beauty! This, is your... curtain call!" Jiang Siming''s voice prated this frozen game map, echoing in everyone''s ears. Especially thest ''curtain call,'' the surge of madness perfectly epitomized the kind of crazed killer that the Champion of the Show embodies! "This is insane, the voice acting monster is too terrifying!" "Outperformed Shen Lei! I suggest League of Legends hires Jiang Siming for voice acting in the future!" "I can''t hold it, if I had a boyfriend with this voice, I''d be insanely happy." "When I first came in, I thought Dumb Little Sister was ying LoL." "Strongly suggest PUBG to introduce voice acting, have Ming God do it, it''d be explosive!" ... Tuantuan and Dumb Little Sister also became die-hard fans of Jiang Siming''s voice. Previously, Jiang Siming''s voice was pleasant, but his words were just everyday conversation. But this time, with a special program for voice acting, the effect was just incredible! "One more, Little Brother Ming, I really like Yasuo, can you voice one?" "I like him too, Brother Ming, one more please, pretty please~~" The two girls begged fervently; if it weren''t for the distance through the inte, they would''ve wished to cuddle up to Jiang Siming. "Alright, alright, let''s have one more Yasuo, then we''ll stop, okay?" "Yeah, yeah!" Everyone was once again filled with anticipation, waiting for the spa-like enjoyment from the voice. Jiang Siming took a moment to prepare and then started speaking. But as soon as he spoke, everyone burst intoughter. "Whispers on the wind speak of a masked swordsman with two des." A strong Changsha ent, with a high-pitched, nasal voice delivering Yasuo''s lines, erupted from Jiang Siming''s mouth. The effect was like snow in July, a scorching winter sun, the contrast was so extreme that it was hard to ept. "Yasuo: ???????" "Hahaha... Funan Changsha''s Yasuo, it hurts fromughing." "A sudden shock, I almost threw my back out!" "Spluttering! I spat out blood, how did Ming''s sexy Yasuo voice turn out like this?" "Facepalm 0.0, I won''t dare to y Yasuo again, just thinking about it as Ming''s voice." "Ming did an awesome job, Tuo''er''s Yasuo should be voiced by him, who''d want to y Yasuo after this!" ... The two girls couldn''t stopughing, their giggles echoing continuously like geese, impossible to cease. Finally calming down, it was because Jiang Siming informed them of approaching enemies. "Alright, no moreughter for now, unless I can''t help it... geese, geese..." Seeing that the two girls were still unable to stop, Jiang Siming ignored them and ran towards the source of the vehicle noise. A full team of four in a jeep drove by, aiming to pick up the airdrop. However, upon seeing the loot already taken, they revved the engine to flee. Caught by Jiang Siming, AK in hand, he unleashed a full-automatic barrage! Bullets converged into a straight line, hitting the jeep''s front end. The vehicle''s health plummeted, but the four inside were unscathed. "Haha, this guy is a joke, not a single shot hit us," the team scoffed. Jiang Siming wasn''t aiming for them; his target was just the car. He swiftly sprayed a magazine of AK bullets. Without changing bullets, he immediately switched to the SKS sniper rifle and unleashed a rapid fire of twenty sniper bulletsbined with forty AK rounds. A total of sixty 7.62mm bullets, every shot hitting the jeep. Tuantuan and Dumb Little Sister ran over halfway through andnded a few shots on the vehicle. After the final shot from the SKS, the jeep exploded! Wiped out! This fully-equipped team couldn''t even get out of the car to fight back and perished inside... Brutal! So brutally efficient! The audience couldn''t help but sympathize with this team, yet their fingers involuntarily typed out ''666''. This kind of unreasonable ''cruelty'' and ''bloodiness'' was exactly what they loved to watch. In FPS shooting games, it''s all about the aesthetics of violence! The effect of the previous Funan Tuo''er program was overshadowed by this vehicr destruction, and everyone''s attention shifted back. Not bad, in the bodies'' loot crates, there was a glowing white fragment. "Picked up [Looting Mastery] fragment *1 (1/1), fragment quantity reached maximum, can be used directly." Looting Mastery? Such a technique exists? But on second thought, for a skilled yer, mastery of looting might indeed be indispensable. To test it out, Jiang Siming deliberately followed behind Dumb Little Sister heading towards the loot. Dumb Little Sister, excited to see what goodies were in the nearby crate, just as she pressed ''tap,'' she was shocked to find that everything she eyed disappeared in an instant. Trying to drag an item like a bottle of Coke, before she could move the mouse, the crate... emptied. "Is this a bug? What''s going on?" Dumb Little Sister looked around suspiciously, seeing no one but Jiang Siming who seemed oddly as if he had just left her side. Looking at the gun in Jiang Siming''s hand, Dumb Little Sister suddenly understood. "Brother Ming, did you secretly search through my things?" Jiang Siming didn''t reply, but Dumb Little Sister became more convinced. Sheughed, hands on her hips, and scolded, "You rascal!" The audience''s attention wasn''t focused on the yful banter between the two. "What kind of looting speed is that? The loot crate is empty in less than a second?" "If it weren''t for Ming God looting an old woman''s bag, we wouldn''t have known that the great god had this move." "Wow, how fast are his hands and reactions?" "As a fujoshi, if Ming God did something like that to me, I''d probably be ecstatic... dirty, dirty, dirty..." ... While Dumb Little Sister was having fun with Jiang Siming, she received a phone call. After a short while, she reported the content of the call to Jiang Siming with an even happier smile. "Brother Ming, just now, the official Douyu staff called me, saying they want to talk to you about live streaming. Are you interested?" Douyu didn''t have Jiang Siming''s contact information, so they reached out to Dumb Little Sister to convey the message. "Little Brother Ming, you were thinking about live streaming, right? If you''re interested, you can do it on Douyu. It would be convenient for us to y together in the future." Both girls had the same idea; working on the same tform would provide more opportunities. "It also depends on the terms. However, just now, the official staff hinted to me that as long as Brother Ming agrees, the conditions and treatment won''t disappoint him," Dumb Little Sister said. Everything depended on Jiang Siming''s decision. Chapter 24 : S Contract "No problem." Jiang Siming was straightforward, admitting openly. He already had the idea of live streaming, so since someone extended an olive branch, he naturally didn''t mind. "Okay, I''ll give them your number. If you''re freeter, you can discuss on the phone, right, Brother Ming? Don''t worry, I''ll keep an eye on them for you." Dumb Little Sister had the air of standing by her man, making the Douyu executives watching the livestream turn ck-faced. "Please, you''re part of our tform, shouldn''t you consider our interests?" After Jiang Siming agreed, he quickly received a call from the other party. They agreed to meet tomorrow noon in Shanghai. In preparation for tomorrow''s meeting, Jiang Siming could only apany the two girls in a couple of rounds before logging off to rest. The two girls understood well and ended the broadcast together. Jiang Siming shut down hisputer. It was already 1 a.m., and he wanted to catch a bit more sleep from the morning he had missed. After taking a shower, Jiang Siming walked out wearing only underwear, intending to return to his bedroom to sleep. Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, Wang Xinyi, who wanted to use the bathroom, opened the door and, upon seeing Jiang Siming, screamed and hurried back to her room, covering her face. "Uh..." Jiang Siming felt a bit awkward. He didn''t expect Wang Xinyi to still be awake at this hour, so he was only in his underwear and was seen. "Sorry, Xinyi. I''ll make sure to wear clothes next time." Apologizing towards Wang Xinyi''s room direction, Jiang Siming returned to his room to sleep. But Wang Xinyi, who rushed back to her room, no longer had the urge to use the bathroom. Shey on the bed, her face all red. In her mind were images of Jiang Siming''s half-naked body, and she couldn''t shake them off, finding it hard to fall asleep. On the other hand, Jiang Siming, carefree,y on the bed and quickly felt drowsy. He slept until the next morning. "Morning, Xinyi." As Wang Xinyi woke up while getting ready in the bathroom, Jiang Siming greeted her. Wang Xinyi''s head quickly dropped, her voice small as she replied, "Morning," not daring to say much. "Uh... Gulu gulu... You seem to have eye bags. Didn''t sleep wellst night?" Jiang Siming, brushing his teeth with his big white smile, asked warmly. "N-no... I-I didn''t..." Wang Xinyi was even more embarrassed. Without thinking much, Jiang Siming finished his morning routine, briefly tidied up, and left. They had agreed to meet at a certain Japanese restaurant in Xujiahui, and when Jiang Siming arrived, the other party was already there. There was only one person, a maturely dressed women. Although not exceptionally beautiful, she had delicate features, smooth skin, wavy hair, and a full figure. Herrge chest nearly burst out of her suit. Exuding a fragrant and mature charm, this woman, even if her face was slightlycking, was undoubtedly attractive. "Hello, I''m the overall head of Douyu''s gaming section and the general manager of Douyu''s branch, Zhao Xuan." "Hello, I''m Jiang Siming." After a brief handshake, the two entered the reserved room in the Japanese restaurant. After seating, Zhao Xuan considerately asked about Jiang Siming''s food preferences and ordered several specialty Japanese dishes. Once the waiter left, they got to the main topic. "I remember Douyu''s person in charge is Brother Sun, right?" Jiang Siming was somewhat surprised. Zhao Xuan smiled and said, "Sun Youcai is just the deputy manager, though he appears as the person in charge." "I see. It''s truly an honor to have you, Manager Zhao,e here to talk to me personally." Jiang Siming was polite. In fact, negotiations about contracts with anchors didn''t need such high-level people like Zhao Xuan to handle them. However, this time, Sun Youcai went as far as using an S-level contract to sign Jiang Siming. When this was reported, Zhao Xuan was curious. Besides, Douyu was preparing for an IPO, and she, being cautious about removing internal dissent, personally took over the negotiations with Jiang Siming, wanting to see if he was truly valuable. When she saw Jiang Siming at the entrance of the restaurant just now, she was very surprised. Beforeing, she had done a lot of research and knew Jiang Siming''s specialties: a voice acting monster, technically skilled, and a creative genius. Normally, someone with such a beautiful voice wouldn''t have a great appearance in reality. When one door opens, another one closes. But Zhao Xuan didn''t expect Jiang Siming''s appearance to be ''striking,'' so much so that this kind of guy could dominate the entertainment circle. Even someone like her, who never minced her words about men, felt a slight flutter. If Jiang Siming showed his face during the livestream, he''d probably attract a huge female fanbase. "From that perspective, Zhao Xuan felt that this S-level contract wasn''t that excessive." "You''re too modest. Besides, I''m not that removed from the real world. Having the opportunity to sign such a promising new anchor for thepany, I should be thanking you instead." Zhao Xuan smiled faintly, adept at measuring her words. "No need for too many polite words. Let''s get straight to the point. I believe someone might have briefed you on some contract details. I won''t haggle or take advantage. Frankly, an S-level contract, ten years, wouldn''t be unfair to you, right?" Saying so, Zhao Xuan took out a contract from her briefcase. In fact, she had three different contracts in her bag, each representing ABS grades. All prepared for Jiang Siming. Originally, Zhao Xuan nned that if the other party didn''t satisfy her demands, she''d try to settle with a B-grade contract at most, maybe an A-grade. But now, she changed her mind. Haggling might upset the other party, and if other tforms took advantage of the situation, it wouldn''t be good. So, she directly presented the S-grade contract. Jiang Siming took the contract and examined it slowly, while Zhao Xuan didn''t disturb him, quietly drinking water and asionally ncing at Jiang Siming. No matter how she looked at it, she felt Jiang Siming''s appearance was not fit to be wasted as just a star. Especially when he looked intently at the contract, that serious and focused look, it actually had some impact on her. "Impossible, men are not worth it." Zhao Xuan poured a bucket of cold water on her heart, and the strange feeling she had just disappeared instantly. After checking the contract, Jiang Siming looked up and said to Zhao Xuan, "The contract is fine, the treatment is very generous, I have no reason to refuse." An annual sry of ten million, with Jiang Siming getting sixty percent of the gift shares, and no specific condition for receiving gifts each month during his 300 hours of live streaming. For a neer like Jiang Siming, who had never done live streaming before, this was an almost divine treatment, transforming from an ugly duckling to a swan. This contract was entirely S-grade, the only difference being the contract''s duration. Hearing Jiang Siming''s words, Zhao Xuan''s lips curled up, showing a triumphant smile, "Then let''s sign the contract." But Jiang Siming shook his head with a smile, "But I still refuse." Zhao Xuan was taken aback, furrowing her embroidered eyebrows. The little fondness she had for Jiang Siming evaporated. She thought Jiang Siming wanted to greedily raise the price. "Mr. Jiang, you should know that this contract is top-notch in the entire livestreaming industry. What are you not satisfied with?" Jiang Siming smiled gracefully and replied, "Ms. Zhao, you misunderstood. I''m not looking to raise the price." "Then what do you mean?" Jiang Siming pushed the contract back, tapping the use at the end of the contract with his slender fingers. Chapter 25 : Giving Up Meeting Face To Face Zhao Xuan immediately understood, relieved, and continued to exin to Jiang Siming. "Although the duration is longer, you should know, it''s your first live stream. We''re offering you an S-level contract, the risk is enormous. We need some peace of mind, right?" Jiang Siming wasn''t buying into that. He wasn''t the kind of easily swayed person who would fall for ttery. With his extensive work experience, he handled such situations effortlessly. "I know it''s my first time live streaming,cking experience. But that shouldn''t be used as leverage in negotiations, or else you wouldn''t have offered me an S-level contract, right?" "My value, for yourpany, surely after careful consideration, is greater than theck of my live streaming experience, wouldn''t you agree?" After a brief silence, Zhao Xuan nodded in agreement. Jiang Siming smiled and continued, "If that''s not a hindrance, there''s no talk of the risks you mentioned. Betting my entire career and youth for ten years, I find that inhumane, considering the high regard your tform has for me. Let''s sign the contract year by year instead of a ten-year term, changing the S-level to A-level." Zhao Xuan was surprised. It was the first time she heard a streamer voluntarily lowering their contract terms. "Yourpany has been generous to me, and I''m not ungrateful. You give a peach, and I return a plum. I disagree with a ten-year contract. There needs to be somepromise; I can''t just take everything, right?" Jiang Siming''s calm and breezy smile increased Zhao Xuan''s admiration for him. He wasn''t what she expected¡ªa person who voluntarily adjusted their contract terms for their freedom. Not only was he wise and free-spirited, but he also had immense self-control and tremendous confidence in his future. If he didn''t have such confidence in his future, why would he let go of such a lucrative ten-year contract? Even if Jiang Siming didn''t meet their expectations or saw a decline in poprity during the ten-year contract, the tform would still guarantee a minimum of ten million per year. But Jiang Siming declined, which really surprised Zhao Xuan. "Alright, I agree." After pondering, Zhao Xuan nodded in agreement. "However, the contract must stipte that once it expires, under the premise that our tform hasn''t treated you unfairly, we have the priority to renew the contract." Jiang Siming readily agreed to this. "I''m someone who values emotions. If the tform treats me well, I''m willing to stay." "That''s great. Looking forward to our cooperation." Zhao Xuan smiled, shaking hands with Jiang Siming again. The contract was quickly arranged, both parties signed and sealed it. From today onwards, Jiang Siming became a ''glorious'' streamer! "The signing fee for the A-level contract is five million, split into three payments, the first being two million, to be transferred to your ount by tomorrow at thetest." "As for the official live streaming time, shall we set it for the day after tomorrow? The tform will give you maximum publicity these two days." Jiang Siming agreed to all the terms without objection. At that moment, the waiter brought their dishes. The two of them, after concluding business, enjoyed their meal happily. Having had Japanese cuisine several times before, Jiang Siming didn''t make a fool of himself like a country bumpkin. After a pleasant meal, Jiang Siming and Zhao Xuan bid farewell to each other. Before leaving, they exchanged WeChat contacts. Watching Zhao Xuan drive away in her Mercedes-Benz GL, Jiang Siming lowered his head and looked at the photo of Zhao Xuan on his phone. The picture seemed like an intimate photo of a mother and daughter. The girl looked about eleven or twelve, and the woman next to her was Zhao Xuan. Her moments on WeChat were all about the daily life with the little girl, with captions like "What my daughter did today" and "Happy birthday," portraying a genuine mother-daughter rtionship. Jiang Siming was surprised that Zhao Xuan was already a mother, and her child was this old. Looking at Zhao Xuan, who was at most in her early thirties, he wondered how her child could be so big. Was it an early marriage? Moreover, the daughter didn''t seem to resemble Zhao Xuan. Shrugging off the confusion, Jiang Siming decided not to dwell on other people''s family matters. It wasn''t his business. Havinge to Xujiahui, Jiang Siming nned to purchase a newputer and streaming equipment. The day before, Dumb Little Sister had briefed him on the hardware needed for streaming, and they were still discussing it. "Brother Ming, are you in Xujiahui now?" Dumb Little Sister didn''t know where Jiang Siming was negotiating the contract, only that he was in Shanghai, living in Hongqiao, far from her. "Yeah, nning to buy equipment in Xujiahui. Are you there too?" "No, no, I''m at home, quite far from Xujiahui." On the other end of the call, Dumb Little Sister, nervously waiting for Erqian to try on clothes in a clothing store in Xujiahui, was afraid Jiang Siming would invite her to meet up. She wasn''t prepared at all. Today, she barely wore any makeup, just apanying Erqian to buy two pieces of clothing. She didn''t reach her peak appearance. If she was going to meet him, she had to show him her most beautiful side. The anxious Dumb Little Sister even turned around to nce, as if afraid Jiang Siming was nearby. She hadn''t considered that she had never met Jiang Siming and wouldn''t recognize him, even if he were present. "Well, I''ll be busy now. Let''s talkter." Jiang Siming, oblivious to her anxiety, said and walked toward theputer store. Xujiahui had a dedicated digital floor, filled with high-end electronic products that the average person might find intimidating. Jiang Siming initially didn''t want to buy anything too fancy, but Dumb Little Sister told him that streaming and gaming together would put a heavy load on theputer. A subparputer would not onlyg but also greatly reduce the streaming frame rate, causing issues like blurry live stream visuals. Helplessly, Jiang Siming had to choose a high-quality option. Signing fees are about toe in, and Jiang Siming wouldn''t be unwilling to spend that bit of money. He was still hesitating about which store to go to when his WeChat buzzed again. "Brother Ming, there''s a shop called ''Express'' in the Xujiahui electronics market. Everything there is genuine, and the owner is honest, but it''s a bit pricey. If you''re not sure where to buy, you can check it out there. I got all my equipment from that store." "Alright, I''ll head there now to take a look," Jiang Siming agreed. Meanwhile, in a clothing store, Dumb Little Sister was excited and hurriedly knocked on the fitting room where Erqian was trying on clothes. "Erqian, hurry up! It''s urgent!" "What''s up, Dumb Dumb? I haven''t finished trying these on," Erqian asked from inside. "Brother Ming is buying aputer in Xujiahui. Let''s go see him!" This idea in Dumb Dumb''s mind was impossible to contain. "Huh? Are you both rushing there right now?" Erqian was shocked. Dumb Dumb scoffed at her and said, "What are you thinking? I didn''t even bother dressing up properly today. I don''t want Brother Ming to see me like this." "Then why are you going?" "We''ll go sneak a peek at him. Just make sure he doesn''t spot us." "Are you sure? What if he''s not good-looking? I''ve heard guys with nice voices tend to have a ''casual'' appearance. What if he''s a sloppy middle-aged man with a beer belly?" Erqian warned. "Really?" Chapter 26 : Another Heartbreak Dumb Little Sister was intimidated by the words of Erqian. If Jiang Siming really looks like that, beer belly, bald head, full of flesh on his face... Just thinking about it is a bit scary. But if she doesn''t look, does that mean she''ll only interact with Brother Ming online for the rest of her life? Regardless, she must go and see! As long as the other person doesn''t lookpletely unbearable, even if he''s a bit ugly, Dumb Little Sister doesn''t mind. "Go! I''ve decided!" Once Dumb Little Sister decided, and Erqian couldn''t persuade her. In fact, she was also curious about what Jiang Siming looks like. The two quickly left the clothing store and headed to theputer city. They arrived at the ''Rapid'' Computer City. Inside, many people wereing and going. The two girls were puzzled, how would they know who Jiang Siming is? "Give him a hint on WeChat," Erqian suggested. Dumb Little Sister thought it made sense and immediately messaged Jiang Siming about the purchase. "It''s almost done. I bought everything ording to the equipment list you gave me. Now, I just need a live broadcast camera and a microphone," Jiang Siming replied. "What items did you rmend to him?" Erqian asked Dumb Little Sister immediately. "Many things, water-cooled chassis, four Titans, 2800ti graphics card, and so on," Dumb Little Sister replied. "The two immediately began searching for the corresponding items in the shopping baskets of customers in the store." Finally, at the checkout, they found a chubby customer pushing a basket with the water-cooled chassis, four Titans, and a 2800ti graphics card ¨C exactly the same items. But when they looked at this person, Erqian and Dumb Little Sister felt like their worldview was copsing. This person was covered in fat, weighing at least two hundred kilograms, with a height of only 1.65 meters. His greasy hair stuck together, and it seemed like he hadn''t washed it in a long time. In his hand, he held arge hamburger, eating it with oil flowing down his mouth. There even seemed to be body odor, and other customers were holding their noses and keeping their distance. "This... Dumb Dumb..." Erqian cautiously turned her head to look at Dumb Little Sister. Dumb Little Sister was on the verge of tears. She really wasn''t part of the looks association. Her expectations had already dropped to a super low level, but reality still shattered her bottom line... She couldn''t ept such a ''Jiang Siming''! "Woo woo woo... Erqian... how could this happen..." Dumb Little Sister cried, burying her head in her friend''s arms. At this moment, she felt that her ''first love fantasy'' hadpletely shattered. No wonder Jiang Siming''s WeChat doesn''t have a single selfie. He said he doesn''t like taking them, and Dumb Little Sister actually believed him at the time. Now it''s clear; he was clearly deliberate. Dumb Little Sister, experiencing another ''heartbreak,'' cried much more seriously this time than thest. "It''s okay, it''s okay. You should be d. If you hadn''t found out early, you''d have been more deeply involved," Erqianforted her, patting her shoulder. Erqian was speechless too, thinking, "Big brother, it''s okay to be a little chubby and ugly. Even if you look a bit inferior, Dumb Dumb would still want to be with you. But looking like this... it''s hard to even talk about it. Who could ept this?" "Indeed, online rtionships are unreliable!" Ding dong. Dumb Little Sister''s WeChat rang again. Erqian picked up her phone and saw it was from Jiang Siming. She was about to ignore it. But Dumb Little Sister, still kind-hearted, took the phone. "I came here on my own ord. Don''t me Brother Ming. At worst, I''ll consider him a good friend from now on..." Dumb Little Sister forced a smile through her tear-streaked face. Anyone would copse in such a situation. Imagine you had an online rtionship, and the person in your mind was always wless, though you had considered that their appearance in photos might differ. But when you see them in reality, they''repletely different, like the disparity between Lin Zhiling and Luo Yufeng. Could you ept it? Dumb Little Sister was already very kind, unwilling to distance herself from Jiang Siming, wanting to treat him as a good friend. If it were someone else, they''d block and report permanently. Some might even have a bad temper andsh out or confront. Opening WeChat, Jiang Siming''s message showed he had finished shopping and was now at the counter paying. Dumb Little Sister nced around the shop in despair and noticed that this ''Jiang Siming'' was angrily arguing with the store owner. The reason was that he identally dripped burger grease on the graphics card and wanted to exchange it for a new one, but of course, the owner refused. The grease could corrode the graphics card, so naturally, the store wouldn''t agree. Both sides started arguing. Dumb Little Sister grew suspicious; Brother Ming was arguing with someone, so how did he have time to message her? Erqian also noticed this. "Send another message and see if they respond," she suggested. Dumb Little Sister immediately replied to Jiang Siming''s message, saying, "Brother Ming, what did you buy? Take a picture, let me see if it''s correct." After sending the message, Dumb Little Sister kept her eyes fixed on the ''Jiang Siming'' in the store, but he didn''t take out his phone again. There was no reply on WeChat either. Both of them could almost confirm their feelings of despair returning. Ding dong! Just when they felt despairing, Dumb Little Sister''s phone rang again! It was Jiang Siming''s reply! In the messages, Jiang Siming gradually sent several photos. But Dumb Little Sister was absolutely certain: she had been staring at the ''Jiang Siming'' who was arguing in the store the whole time, and he hadn''t taken out his phone, let alone taken any pictures! Moreover, the electronic devices in the photos were different from those of the ''Jiang Siming'' in the store; there were many other items in the pictures that weren''t in the ''Jiang Siming''s'' shopping cart at all! A feeling of ''having a narrow escape from a disaster'' emerged in the minds of the two girls. Could this ''Jiang Siming'' just coincidentally have bought a few items simr to the real Jiang Siming''s purchases? Soon after, the ''Jiang Siming'' in the store, having failed to negotiate, angrily bought only the graphics card and stormed off. Meanwhile, at the store''s checkout, a tall figure pushing a shopping cart appeared. He queued up and started taking photos of the items in his cart. Every time he took a picture, Dumb Little Sister received it on her phone, and the angles and techniques used in the photos perfectly matched those of the tall guy in the store. To confirm once more, Dumb Little Sister replied on WeChat. Pretending to ask Jiang Siming to get a business card from the store, she imed it would make it easier to ce orders directly over the phone in the future. As soon as she sent this message, the ''Jiang Siming'' in the store called one of the service staff, exchanged a few words, and the staff handed him a business card from the front desk. Jiang Siming even took a photo of the business card with his phone and sent it to Dumb Little Sister. Receiving the message, Dumb Little Sister instantly felt like she had returned from hell to earth. Only she could understand this feeling at this moment. She had thought love had slipped away from her, but it turned out to be all a misunderstanding! The two girls hugged each other excitedly, jumping around. Passersby gave them puzzled looks, wondering what could make them so ecstatic. "Don''t get too excited, Dumb Dumb. We''ve only seen his back; we haven''t seen his face yet," Erqian cautioned her in advance. The ''Jiang Siming'' in the store had been facing away from them, so they hadn''t been able to get a clear look at his face. Dumb Little Sister realized that if this person had a terrifying appearance and was much older, it would be troublesome. But as long as he wasn''t like the ''Jiang Siming'' from earlier, she wouldn''t mind! Dumb Little Sister lowered her standards once again. The two girls settled down and found a nearby spot, sneakily watching the store entrance. As soon as Jiang Siming emerged, they''d get a clear view. Chapter 27 : Ming Gods First Live Stream Jiang Siming quickly finished paying and walked out of the store with his purchases. The moment he stepped outside, Jiang Siming''s full face waspletely exposed to the two girls. Dumb Little Sister and Erqian were frozen in ce, as if someone had pressed their acupuncture points. Their mouths slightly open, eyes wide, as if they had just seen a prince? He had the figure of a model, the looks of a superstar, and an air of ethereal charm! Forget about popr actors like Hu Ge, Huo Jianhua, Peng Yuyan, or Wu Yifan¡ªthey all paled inparison! After the initial shock, the faces of both girls turned red, Dumb Little Sister''s ears and neck even more so. The two girls exchanged a nce, understanding what the other wanted to say: "Mama, I''m in love..." "Dumb Dumb, I''ve already made the purchases. I''m nning to head home now. Thanks for your rmendations; they saved me a lot of trouble. If there''s a chance, I''ll treat you to dinner." Jiang Siming pushed the shopping cart with one hand and held the phone to his mouth with the other, sending a voice message. His voice matched perfectly with Jiang Siming online, even sounding better than online. However, Jiang Siming didn''t notice Dumb Little Sister beside him. After sending the voice message, he simply pushed the cart and left the ''Rapid'' store. Once Jiang Siming was out of sight, Dumb Little Sister and Erqian hugged again,ughing and screaming. This attracted even more attention from passersby, but the two girls were oblivious... ... Back at home, Jiang Siming assembled theputer. All these items cost him nearly 30,000 credits, all top-notch equipment. After assembling it, he looked at the cool and shyputer before him, a stark contrast to the 5,000 credit one he had been using for a few days. It was likeparing a king to a beggar, an enormous difference. Comparing the two, Jiang Siming, who was initially content with his 5,000 creditputer, couldn''t help butment, "People are so infuriatinglypetitive, and products vary so much!" The 30,000 credit setup was for live streaming, while the 5,000 credit one would be a secondary machine, used for checkingments, doing giveaways for fans, or setting up panoramic cameras. With all the streaming configurations set up, Jiang Siming only needed to wait for the day after tomorrow to start streaming as scheduled. On the same night after signing the contract, Douyu''s official Weibo released a post: "Great news! PUBG''s Ultimate Demon King, the Swift Sniper, the God-like Shooter, the Mighty Average yer! ''Ming'' has joined Douyu''s live streaming! He''ll meet everyone sharp at 3 p.m. the day after tomorrow in Room 99999. If you want to learn PUBG skills, don''t miss it!" This post caused quite a stir, especially among executives from other tforms who had considered negotiations with Jiang Siming. They regretted not acting sooner, not expecting Douyu to move so quickly! Fans who''ve watched Jiang Siming''s skills on Douyu are super excited. With Jiang Siming going live, they can learn techniques better now! Moreover, Ming''s voice is incredibly pleasant, his personality is humorous, and he effortlessly delivers jokes and punchlines. The voiceovers of Jiang Siming as Yasuo have already gone viral on TikTok. Countless people are using this voiceover as background audio. As a newly emerged and highly popr neer, his uing live stream naturally attracts a lot of attention. Little Tuantuan specifically created a TikTok video, editing funny clips of Jiang Siming''s duos with Dumb Dumb and Little Tuantuan fromst night''s game. The video bluntly promotes Jiang Siming''s first live streaming session, giving him a significant wave of advertising. Dumb Dumb is also vigorously promoting Jiang Siming''s first live streaming news in her own fan group, urging everyone to join and send gifts. In this manner, Jiang Siming, without any foundation, received favor from two Douyu big anchors, and his pre-stream poprity has been quite sessful. Two days passed quickly. During these two days, Jiang Siming learned all the live broadcasting techniques from Dumb Dumb and Little Tuantuan. Likewise, he harvested many fragments in the game. He already collected the [Vocal Talent] and even obtained an extra [Guitar Talent]. He acquired two critical skills in the game, [Eagle Eye] and [Extreme Movement]. The [Eagle Eye] skill allows Jiang Siming to see every movement around him. As long as someone is within his line of sight, they won''t escape his vision. The only thing that left Jiang Siming somewhat disappointed was that the [Audi RS7] he longed for didn''t appear. At 2:50 in the afternoon, The 99999 live room was bustling. Before the broadcast began, the poprity had already soared to over a million, although there weren''t many gifts, there were around 200,000 or so. After all, Jiang Siming didn''t have any fan base, and most of the gifts were from fans of Little Tuantuan and Dumb Dumb. This 200,000 gift also raised the level of the live room to level 40. Although not high, it''s already quite challenging for a new streamer. The levels are easy to increase at the beginning, but as it progresses, the required gifts increase exponentially. To reach the maximum level of 100, it takes almost 25 million credits worth of gifts. Currently, Douyu has less than ten full-level streamers. While the gifts were few, the chat ofments was significant. "Open up, open up!" "Ming God is starting his stream! Let''s get going!" "I came from TikTok, I want to listen to the voiceover of Yasuo again." "The ughter is about to begin; I want to see Ming God brutally killed. So satisfying!" "I really want to continue watching Ming lead Dumb Dumb and Tuantuan, full of humor." "Will Ming show his face during the live stream? Really want to see what someone with such a great voice looks like." ... The chat started at two o''clock and continued in this manner, densely packed. Three o''clock. The originally dark live room suddenly flickered to life¡ªthere was a picture! In the picture, besides Jiang Siming''sputer screen, there was also a camera view in the lower right corner. Unfortunately, it didn''t capture a face but instead focused on the keyboard and mouse. Many female fans expressed their disappointment. "We want to see his face~" "Don''t just focus on the hands, Ming, dear, we want to see your face~" "Who allowed you girls to call me dear!?" "Ugh! He''s mine! Unsheathe your swords, you wretches!" "We''re begging to see your face, even just a nce." "Maybe it''s better not to. I fear that after seeing his face, my beautiful illusion will shatter." ... Many viewers called for the chance to see Jiang Siming''s face, but he didn''t fulfill their wishes. "This is a technical live streaming room; the looks segment is not unlocked yet." Jiang Siming''s voice echoed in the live room. With top-notch streaming equipment, his voice effects reached a new level. "Ah, can''t take it anymore~ Girls, I''ll excuse myself first~ Mwah~" "Why does his voice sound even better? Who can resist this allure?" "I''m a guy and I''m swooning, Ming God, you''re responsible for this!" "With a voice like this, not seeing the face is still okay." "He must be ugly, otherwise, why not show his face?" "You up there, go die in a corner; nobody''s asking you to look!" ... Watching the chat, Jiang Siming shook his head, chuckling. "This is a technical live stream room; for now, it''s only about tech. If there''s a chance in the future, I''ll reveal my face." Most viewers epted this response, only a small portion persisted. Just as Jiang Siming was about to say more, his live room was bombarded with a series of tform-wide announcements of unlocking the titled membership, frighteningly overwhelming! Chapter 28 : Dodge Bullets on Foot With a 12-kill streak in the Bootcamp, Jiang Siming only obtained one fragment, which happened to be a red fragment for the guitar skill. He already had four fragments for the guitar skill, just one short of synthesis. Jiang Siming noticed that the refresh rate of white fragments had decreased. It was likely that the game''s skill fragments were nearly all obtained, which exined why he rarely found white fragments these days. Today''s goal wasn''t collecting fragments, though; Jiang Siming aimed to climb to the top of the Asia server. After leaving the Bootcamp, Jiang Siming hopped on his Yamaha electric bike and headed towards ces with more yers. Where there were people, there were opportunities¡ªso easy! Vroom, vroom! Passing by a residential area, Jiang Siming was blocked by a pedestrian. However, with the skill "Ultimate Vehicle Maneuver," he remained calm. He zigzagged on his electric bike, fast and slow at times, evading all the shots from the other person. The audience enjoyed the scene. "What''s this guy doing? Setting off fireworks?" "He''s outlining the human body with bullets?" "The ones who don''t understand are idiots. It''s not the guy''s fault; it''s just that Ming God''s driving skills are too excellent, okay?" "Notice that Ming God''s vehicle has always been outside the opponent''s line of fire. How does he do that?" "Hiding behind a car from bullets isn''t a skill. If you''re so capable, get out of the car and dodge bullets! If you can dodge a round of bullets, I''ll gift ten super rockets! Idiot!" Jiang Siming took a moment to nce at the chat, catching a specific message. "Since someone wants to see me dodge bullets on foot, I''ll satisfy them. Whether or not it earns super rockets doesn''t matter. If I seed, just send a chat saying ''Dad, I was wrong.''" Haha. The audience enjoyed it; Ming God was a bit mischievous. Unexpectedly, the sender of that chat spoke up again. "No problem! If you can do it, not only will I send a chat, but I''ll also gift you ten super rockets!" The sender seemed to be a small duke with the economic capacity to make such promises. "Deal." Jiang Siming genuinely stopped the vehicle, switched to fist mode, and didn''t carry a gun. The guy blocking him thought Jiang Siming was panicking and jumping off the vehicle. He quickly loaded his gun, ready to take a single shot at Jiang Siming. Jiang Siming was on this open space, starting to move wildly, sometimes crouching, sometimes jumping, asionally spinning in circles in a somewhat silly manner. But what left the audience astonished was that the opponent''s bullets, as if insted from Jiang Siming, always flew past him. Each bullet came dangerously close to hitting, but never actually hit. The skill "Extreme Movement" was showcased to its fullest at this moment. "He has thirteen bullets left, assuming he has an extended magazine." Jiang Siming even took the time to calcte the opponent''s remaining ammunition. The guy who was shooting became irritated, realizing that Jiang Siming was toying with him. He jumped directly out of the building. With a broader field of view, he confidently readjusted his aim on Jiang Siming and started shooting! Biubiubiu... The opponent''s bullets came densely towards Jiang Siming, but he still managed to evade them using various inexplicable twists and turns. "Last shot, I''ll block it with the pan on my butt." After saying that, Jiang Siming turned around, facing away from the person, and jumped into the air. The opponent''s bullet, as if it had eyes, obediently hit Jiang Siming''s t-bottomed pan, making a crisp sound. "Alright, you''ve had enough fun, now it''s my turn." As soon as he finished speaking, the 98k in Jiang Siming''s hand returned to its original position. Turning back, he fired a shot without even opening the scope. The person''s head urately caught the bullet and fell to the ground with a bang! This shot was executed by simply turning around, without any aiming or pre-aiming. After a moment of silence in the live broadcast, a frenzy of bulletments followed! "666666" "My Guanyin Bodhisattva, I''ve seen something incredible! I''ve seen a divine being!" "Can you really dodge bullets by moving? Is it that I don''t understand this game enough?" "Ming God is amazing!! I''m in awe! Where''s that idiot duke? Get out!" "My mom asked me why I''m kneeling while watching the livestream..." "Ming God, you''ve once again amazed me with your skills!" ... All the audience members were amazed by this kind of skill. If it were a particrly long distance, that would be understandable; it''s easy to dodge at such distances. But Jiang Siming was less than twenty meters away from the other person! And there wasn''t any cover. At this distance and in this environment, even someone with mediocre aiming skills like Dumb Little Sister could hit the opponent at least five or six times. But miraculously, this was what actually happened, witnessed with their own eyes! If you were to say the opponent was an actor, Jiang Siming using a frying pan to catch a bullet at the end wasn''t something that could be acted out. Many affluent viewers began showering gifts and rewards, as if that was the only way to express their feelings at that moment. For a while, nes, rockets, VIP subscriptions, and even a super rocket were flying across the screen, totaling a value of over five thousand. Then, a duke''s purplement appeared in the livestream. "Sorry, Dad, Ming Dad, from now on, you are my idol, I won''t go anywhere else!" "Duke [Forgetful Schr] rewards [Ming]''s livestream with 10 super rockets!" The Duke user promptly sent ten super rockets, along with five regr ones. "Thank you for the Duke''s generous gifts. Let''s not make fun of him anymore. This guy keeps his word; he seems like a big businessman. I''ll make you a moderatorter." Jiang Siming said with a smile. The Duke was even more grateful upon hearing Jiang Siming''s words and sent another five rockets. Easily impressing a duke user, Jiang Siming realized the more impressive his maneuvers, the more the audience loved it. Since that''s the case, let''s all prepare to be amazed! After rummaging through the person''s bag, Jiang Siming didn''t pick up anything, just took all six grenades inside, even discarding some bullets for this. Getting back on the electric bike, Jiang Siming headed towards the safe zone. "Too few bullets, right? Only sixty, is that enough, Ming God?" The worried audience asked; in their gaming world, a rifle should have at least two hundred bullets to be sufficient. "I won''t need that many. Sixty bullets plus the dozen or so in the sniper rifle will be enough for me to kill at least twenty people." Jiang Siming replied. This time, no one argued back because Jiang Siming had already proven himself with his skills. The electric bike arrogantly entered the center of the safe zone and found an airdrop, surprisingly containing an AWM, the most powerful sniper rifle. But Jiang Siming didn''t pick it up; he only took the bullets and left only one in the gun, then found a ce to discard it. The audienceughed and scolded Jiang Siming for being too bad; anyone who came to pick up the airdrop and found an AWM without bullets would probably curse angrily. One bullet, don''t pick it up, and you''ll regret it; pick it up, and one bullet isn''t enough to shoot. The choice is a nightmare for someone with indecisiveness... Having done some mischief, Jiang Siming chuckled and drove the vehicle to a higher point, waiting for prey. Chapter 29 : Meeting Champion Player The small map''s circle is closing very quickly. In the jungles of Southeast Asia, figures are running towards the center. Standing at a high vantage point, Jiang Siming possesses the skill "Eagle Eyes." As long as someone appears on the screen, none can escape Jiang Siming''s field of vision. "Southeast, 120 degrees, one target, taking care of it first." Jiang Siming reports to the audience and opens the scope. With a slight movement of the mouse, he immediately aims at the yer running through the jungle. Despite the opponent''s evasive movements, Jiang Siming''s shot is unerring! As the 98k bullet leaves the barrel, a spray of blood blooms from the person''s head, and they fall lifeless. The audience in the livestream hasn''t even had a chance to cheer. "105 degrees, another one, a bit far, my sniping will have to depend on luck." After saying this, Jiang Siming shifts the scope, revealing another moving figure at a considerable distance. The audience is amazed at Jiang Siming''s sharp eyesight; seeing a target from a distance of five hundred meters, even in the jungle, is impressive. If not for the screen capture, everyone would think Jiang Siming is using cheats. Adjusting the crosshair, pre-aiming, and firing! At such a distance, almost no one believes Jiang Siming can hit the target. But in reality... "yer [ming] uses a headshot with the 98k to kill yer [yuaishini]." What the heck! He hit from that distance? And a headshot? "Hehe, not bad luck. I thought I could only hit the body." Jiang Siming seems pleased with a small aplishment. The audience is speechless; what he called luck from a distance was actually aiming for the head, or at least hitting the body? Well, he''s a monster! Definitely a monster! Next, from this high point, Jiang Siming consecutively eliminates seven enemies running from the poison before reluctantly changing positions due to theck of new targets. The audience has lost count of how many times they''ve eximed "Wow" during this round. Their knees are surrendered to this game for a year. Soon, the poison circle shrinks, and the number of yers decreases. Jiang Siming notices that, aside from himself, there''s an ID that has lit up several times in the upper right corner. "yer [omg_xiaohai555] uses an M416 to kill yer [zhenbangbang111]." It lights up again, and the audience finally realizes the abnormality of this ID! "s! Isn''t this Xiaohai?" "It really is him; he''s live streaming too! This is his alternate ount, and Xiaohai has already killed ten people." "Wow, Divine Siming, you''ve matched with a professional yer." "OMG, this isst year''s global champion team. Xiaohai is very strong, just a bit below Xiaolion." "I''ve seen this round! Hoping to witness a showdown between two great yers." "Divine Siming, if you kill Xiaohai, I''ll boost your viewership!" ... Jiang Siming didn''t expect to match with a professional yer, but he remains calm, even looking forward to it. He hopes the professional yer doesn''t die; his hands are itching for a challenge. Jiang Siming spotted Xiaohai, and Xiaohai had also noticed Jiang Siming long ago. That ID, constantly active in the upper right corner, was hard for Xiaohai not to notice. "Wow, this guy must have killed at least twenty, right?" In the live stream, Xiaohai couldn''t help butment. Behind him sat another person. "I just checked his livestream; he''s already at twenty-six kills." Xiaohai was amazed, "That''s terrifying!" "His sniping skills are incredibly versatile, his vision is sharp, and his movements are strong. No wonder even Weishen fell to him." The person sitting next to him spoke with a strong desire forbat; he also wanted to face off against this yer, Ming! "Then I''ll try not to snipe with him; anyway, I have level three armor. I hope I can face him in a battle!" A professional yer never backs down, and Xiaohai, who refuses to ept defeat, won''t give up. "I''ve already talked to the club; let''s see if we can recruit him into our team. In this battle, you must bring out your strongest skills and let''s see where his limits lie." Xiaohai nodded seriously at the suggestion, bing even more cautious in his actions. Unlike Jiang Siming, who remained as bold as ever, wherever there was a person, he appeared, crazily collecting kills. The circle continued to shrink until only three people remained: Xiaohai, Jiang Siming, and a random yer. Jiang Siming appeared behind a tree on the mountainside; the kill count in the upper right corner had reached a terrifying "33"! With only three bullets left in the 98k and just one magazine for the rifle, not even a backup was avable. Many viewersined about why Jiang Siming didn''t pick up more ammo, but they dared not speak up, fearing it might affect his gamey. Jiang Siming''s current position wasn''t favorable; it was in the circle of death, requiring him to run downhill to escape the poison. And on the right side of the mountain below, someone had been lurking there all along. This person also knew Jiang Siming''s position and was determined not to let him survive to enter the circle. Jiang Siming fired a few shots with the rifle, trying to lure the opponent into a shootout. But unfortunately, this yer was a master at camping and wouldn''t show himself, leaving Jiang Siming unable to shoot. "So you''re gonna camp? Then let me show you the taste of a thunderstorm." Jiang Siming was certain this person couldn''t be Xiaohai from OMG; a professional yer wouldn''t y so passively. Since he was just a random yer, there was no need to hesitate. Once he took care of him, he could have a showdown with the professional yer. He unhooked a grenade from his waist and pulled the pin. Sizzling The grenade started to ignite. After a brief two-second count, Jiang Siming threw it out. But that wasn''t all; Jiang Siming had more than a dozen grenades in his backpack, all scavenged from other yers'' loot boxes. Jiang Siming, without a second thought, threw all of them out like they were freebies. The grenades exploded densely at that spot, more intense than a bombing zone! The random yer who had been camping there heard the earth-shattering explosions nearby and trembled, praying he wouldn''t be a victim. But to his dismay, thest grenade happened to ''coincidentally''nd right on his face. Boom! "yer [ming] uses a grenade to kill yer [doushizhazha]." The audience couldn''t help but feel sorry for this guy. "So many grenades, it''s just brutal." "Wasn''t that a bit over the top for a thunderstorm? Too much, but seriously epic!" "I seriously suspect Ming did it on purpose, just to throw all the grenades and probably waited for thest one to finish off the opponent." "Here it is! The thrilling showdown between the expert and the sniper is about to begin!" "The champion yer versus the random sniper, the footage is rolling, get ready for the first video release!" ... By blowing up the nuisance of a yer, Jiang Siming smoothly ran into the safe circle. Actually, along the way, Xiaohai had chances to harass Jiang Siming, but he refrained. He wanted a fair and square showdown with Jiang Siming! Jiang Siming also understood this and, to respect his opponent, topped up his health to the maximum, reaching the most perfect state. Chapter 30 : Showoff Between Two Pros The two yers stood on a t piece of ground, each having a giant rock as cover, with a distance of just over ten meters between them. Xiaohai''s geographical position seemed to be slightly better because his side had a forest, withrge trees and bushes providing cover. On the other hand, Jiang Siming was on an open field with only that one rock, leaving the rest of the area exposed. However, this game itself isn''t inherently fair, and this setup was already quite close to a bnced scenario. Both sides hesitated to make a move. The live streams of both broadcasters fell silent, and thements in the chat had significantly decreased. The viewers were nervously watching this showdown, too absorbed to even send messages. Finally, Xiaohai took the initiative, firing rapidly at the corners of the rock where he suspected Jiang Siming might be hiding, trying to lure him out. Jiang Siming didn''t let him spoil the fun; his head appeared from the side of the rock, and then swiftly retreated. In the meantime, Jiang Siming had fired a shot from the 98k. Quick-scope! Another quick-scope! But could he hit this time? The answer was a definite yes! Bullets immediately hit Xiaohai''s body, producing the sound of bullets prating flesh. Fortunately, it didn''t hit his head but struck his shoulder armor. Although it only took a small chunk of his health, it was enough to startle Xiaohai. "So urate!" Xiaohai eximed in amazement while crouching down to heal. On the other side of theputer desk, Xiaolion didn''t respond to him but stared at the screen without blinking. His screen was showing Jiang Siming''s livestream, providing Jiang Siming''s first-person perspective. Even Xiaolion, despite being an experienced yer, couldn''tprehend how Jiang Siming achieved such precise quick-scoping. "This guy... doesn''t even need to aim?" Other members of OMG, drawn by the spectacle, gathered around Xiaolion''sputer. No one bothered to check Xiaohai''s perspective, much to Xiaohai''s frustration¡ªwhy wasn''t anyone watching him? After observing for a while, Xiaolion finally spoke. "Look at the way he grips the mouse in the webcam. This guy is a typical arm yer, using the feeling of the arm to achieve not having to aim down sights. Wherever the arm points, the gun follows!" "Arm yers aren''t umon, I''m one too, but I can''t achieve this level of precision." OMG''s members chuckled. "That''s his remarkable aspect. This can''t be learned; it''s almost like a talent. Neither the North American god nor Shroud has this exaggerated quick-scoping skill." Xiaolion asserted confidently because he had faced off against those yers. "Looks like Xiaohai is in trouble," another team member smirked. Heard by Xiaohai, he snorted, saying, "I won''t lose. I don''t believe his sniping is really that strong! My sniping skills aren''t weak either!" Having said that, Xiaohai, who had healed to full health, picked up his M24 and peeked his head from the cover, pre-aiming towards Jiang Siming. But, he was up against quick-scoping, and he had a pre-aimed rifle. Even if his reaction was fast, could it be faster than someone who didn''t aim down sights? Quick-scoping is unreasonable; without aiming down sights, you expose your head, take a shot, and then retract. Xiaolion had already put a period on Xiaohai''s ''impulsiveness''; even Weishen couldn''t counter Jiang Siming''s quick-scoping. As expected, Jiang Siming appeared again, and just as Xiaohai was about to shoot, he realized the opponent was one step ahead. Bang! The gunshot rang out, and the bullet was already on its way! A bullet had hit Xiaohai''s level-three helmet. Luckily, it hit the helmet; otherwise, he would have been knocked out. Returning to cover, Xiaohai felt a chill in his heart and abandoned the idea of sniping with Jiang Siming. After healing again, Xiaohai got smarter. He started throwing smoke grenades wildly towards Jiang Siming. The smoke grenadespletely blocked Jiang Siming''s line of sight. Xiaohai switched to his rifle, left the cover, and rushed towards Jiang Siming. Can''t out-snipe him, but do you think I''ll lose in a rifle fight? Xiaohai''s fighting spirit returned. As the team''s second assault, he had absolute confidence in his close-quarters rifle skills. Seeing the smoke surrounding him, Jiang Siming immediately understood the opponent''s intentions. "Want to engage me in closebat? I''ll grant your wish." Jiang Siming''s audience anxiously sweated for him. "Don''t do it, Ming God. Xiaohai is strong in closebat; don''t go head-to-head with him." "Oh no, closebat is definitely not going to work." "He''s a world champion yer, a top-tier assault. Ming God is in danger." "Ming God, don''t engage in closebat with him!" The audience''s warnings didn''t reach Jiang Siming, and even if he had seen them, he wouldn''t have followed their advice. A faint footstep already echoed in Jiang Siming''s ears, indicating the opponent had approached him closely. But with smoke all around, he couldn''t determine Xiaohai''s position; he only knew the general direction. The opponent got closer, and the two were about to meet. The audience''s heartstrings reached their peak tension. At this moment, all the smoke cleared, and both saw each other! They opened fire! Xiaohai, who aimed first, had the M416''s barrel precisely aimed at Jiang Siming. The mes spewing from the barrel looked like a deadly sickle. On the other hand, Jiang Siming seemed stunned, not firing a shot! The audience felt a cold wave, and even Xiaolion thought Xiaohai would sessfully counter-kill. "Does this guy have such poor psychological resilience? Did he forget to shoot?" OMG''s members sneered. If that were indeed the case, their team didn''t seem to need such a yer. After all, even if someone was good at sniping, poor psychological resilience would be a drawback. In professional matches, no one would foolishly engage in a prolonged gunfight with someone known to have urate sniping skills. They wouldn''t expose themselves at a distance; instead, they would opt for closebat. Only Xiaolion saw through the situation. He eximed, "No! He''s there! Watch his movement!" In the camera frame, facing the impending bullets, Jiang Siming suddenly leaned to the side and squatted! Then, he stepped out half a body to the right, a seemingly useless and dreamy maneuver. Yet, it sessfully evaded all of Xiaohai''s bullets! Panicking, Xiaohai tried to pull the trigger again, but at that moment, the opponent switched to an AK and fired a few shots. Pup pup pup! Xiaohai''s head was hit by three AK bullets, and he copsed, bing a lifeless corpse. Xiaohai stood still on the spot, staring at the screen like a statue. [Good luck tonight, winner winner chicken dinner! 34 kills!] This message appeared on Jiang Siming''sputer screen. The livestream exploded with a huge uproar, and gifts from the audience showered down like snowkes! Duke [Forgotten River Schr] rewarded a super rocket x2 in Ming''s livestream! [Forgotten River Schr]: "Wow! This move gave me goosebumps! Ming God is mighty!" King [Heartless Flower] rewarded a super rocket x5 in Ming''s livestream! [Heartless Flower]: "I''m kneeling! I''ve watched a match until my knees are about to break. Can''t learn, can''t learn." Emperor [Little Tuantuan] rewarded a super rocket x10 in Ming''s livestream! [Little Tuantuan]: "My best friend and I were dumbfounded, screaming so loud that even my grandma woke up. Hehe, going crazy for Brother Ming!'' Emperor [Dumb Little Sister] rewarded a super rocket x10 in Ming''s livestream! [Dumb Little Sister]: "Defeating a professional yer with strength, Brother Ming is amazing! I''m your most loyal fan~" Chapter 31 : 30,000 Fan Badges Duke, king, emperor, and even counts and viscounts, arge group of tycoons sent rewards. They boosted Jiang Siming''s poprity back to over 10 million! At this moment, there are still over 2 million viewers in Jiang Siming''s live stream room. This is all due to the numbers brought in by Dumb Dumb and Tuantuan previously, with over 3 million online viewers at that time. It was expected that those who just came to grab the treasure chests would have left by now, but unexpectedly, over 2 million are still here. This number of online viewers is something even Tuantuan and Dumb Dumb can only asionally achieve. Jiang Siming, however, achieved it in just one day. Sessfully winning a Chicken Dinner, Jiang Siming felt quite satisfied. After killing Xiaohai, a golden shard appeared in his backpack. And this shard was none other than the Audi RS7 that Jiang Siming had been wanting! But for now, during the live broadcast, Jiang Siming can only deal with it after the stream ends. With a 34-kill Chicken Dinner, Jiang Siming''s score skyrocketed to 2300, gaining 500 points in a single game, quite impressive. Without stopping, Jiang Siming re-entered the game. From 3 PM, Jiang Siming yed continuously until 3 AM. A total of twelve hours streaming! In those twelve hours, Jiang Siming managed to win a total of 18 Chicken Dinners! Almost on average, every three games, he would secure a win. Sometimes, when he had fewer kills, Jiang Siming would self-destruct and restart; otherwise, his Chicken Dinner rate would be even more terrifying! Among these, there were 11 games with over 30 kills and 7 with over 20 kills! And Jiang Siming''s score had risen to a terrifying 4500 points! On the Asia server leaderboard, Jiang Siming proudly held the top position! First ce: [ming] Score: 4500 KDA: 19.4 Total games: 103 Chicken Dinners: 38 Win rate: 36% ... Second ce: [4am_godvzzz] Score: 4200 ... Third ce: [omg_lionkk] ... Jiang Siming surpassed the second-ce Weishen and the third-ce Little Lion. He reached the top spot in the Asia server! Achieving this feat took him only twelve hours. At the moment of reaching the top, the number of viewers in Jiang Siming''s livestream soared to its peak, reaching a whopping 6 million! The poprity surged to over 35 million! This data could almostpete with the top two Douyu streamers, Xuxu Baobao and PDD. Six million viewers flocked over, crowding Jiang Siming''s livestream, discussing the miracle he aplished. Douyu executive Sun Youcai beamed with joy; Douyu''s PUBG section hadn''t seen such remarkable sess in a long time! After tallying up today''s gifts from the audience, the value amounted to 1.98 million credits. The current room level has reached 65, and it will take another 150,000 credit to level up. The room has spawned a total of 26,850 fan badges. In other words, over 26,000 users have spent at least on gifts. The livestream industry isn''t the same as before. Nowadays, most viewers watching streams are rtively rational and won''t blindly send gifts. Unless the livestream''s performance truly impresses and satisfies the audience. Now, Jiang Siming''s livestream effect has won over arge number of viewers, resulting in the creation of nearly 30,000 fan badges. Currently, Douyu''s livestream rooms can boost poprity withvish gifts, but fan badges can''t be artificially boosted. This is the most genuine indicator of a streamer''s real poprity, almost impossible to fake, unless you''re insane and use others'' identities to register ounts and then spend credits on each ount to get a badge. This process, besides being costly andplex, isn''t rewarding because badges will decrease if not refreshed for a while. This thoroughly prevents any possibility of faking fan badges. Douyu''s highest record for fan badge increase was on the day of PDD''s rey, rising by 500,000 in a day. However, most of this was due to PDD''s previously umted high poprity, coupled with hisvish and crazy giveaways, attracting arge number of tycoons and rich individuals. But Jiang Siming did nothing like that, didn''t host any giveaways, is just a neer, and doesn''t have tycoon friends. Yet, he managed to gain nearly 30,000 fan badges in a day, astonishing Douyu''s top management. "Alright, the task ispleted ahead of time, and I should get some sleep now. I''ve streamed for a whole day; feeling a bit tired," Jiang Siming stretchedzily. Of course, the audience wasn''t willing to let him go. "Don''t go, the livestream''s poprity is at its peak. Keep going!" "Ming God clearlycks livestream experience. Now is the peak of poprity; keep going!" "y a few more rounds. I just got here and haven''t seen any of those violent ughters they''re talking about." "Ming God, take Dumb Dumb and Tuantuan with you. They''ve been missing you." "Yeah, Dumb Dumb has been feeling downtely, almost getting depression." ... Seeing everyone''s messages, Jiang Siming wasn''t the kind of streamer to ignore their sentiments. Perfect timing! When Jiang Siming won several chicken dinners earlier, he had umted enough fragments for "Guitar Mastery." Coupled with his existing talent, "Singing Skill," Jiang Siming decided to treat everyone to a song as today''s closing performance. "Today''s gaming session has been too long, and my head is a bit dizzy now. I won''t be ying games anymore. I''ll borrow a guitar from my roommate and sing a song for you all. How does that sound?" Since he didn''t have a guitar, he nned to borrow one from Wang Xinyi. In fact, Jiang Siming also wanted to test these two new skills he had just acquired; he had never used them before. "Ming God can y the guitar too?" "Come on, does he have to be so talented? What chance do we ordinary men have?" "Agreed! Ming God''s voice is so nice; he must be great at singing!" "You can y the guitar too? Is it just at the beginner level, or are you going to embarrass yourself?" "I''ll notify the old women; she''ll definitely be happy toe over and watch!" ... Hearing most viewers agreeing, Jiang Siming temporarily left the livestream. He went to Wang Xinyi''s room, where the lights were still on. Jiang Siming knocked on the door. "Heart, are you asleep?" "Sir, do you have something important at thiste hour?" Wang Xinyi felt a bit strange and nervous, wondering why Jiang Siming woulde to her sote. "Oh, I''m livestreaming and want to borrow your guitar for a while. Is that okay? Don''t worry; I''ll y it very softly." Jiang Siming had already told Wang Xinyi about being a livestreamer. In no time, the door opened. Wearing cartoon pajamas, Wang Xinyi walked out holding a guitar and handed it to Jiang Siming. "Sir, you can y the guitar too?" Jiang Siming took the guitar with a smile and said, "A little bit. I n to sing a song to end the livestream. Don''t worry; I''ll finish quickly." "Can Ie and listen? I promise not to make any noise, just silently watch from the side." Wang Xinyi was curious about Jiang Siming''s guitar skills. "Sure, if you''re not bored,e on in." Jiang Siming readily agreed. Back in his room, Wang Xinyi followed like a curious baby, ncing around. As Jiang Siming sat in front of the livestream camera, Wang Xinyi stood at the door, far away, silent and curious, watching. Having already waited for Jiang Siming in the livestream room, Dumb Dumb and Tuantuan were eager. Chapter 32 : Crazy Rewards In a vi located in a wealthy area of Shanghai, Zhao Xuan, who had just finished handlingpany affairs, went to her daughter''s bedroom to take a look. After seeing her daughter asleep, she returned to her own bedroom, nning to go to bed. But feeling restless, she decided to check the live stream on herpany''s tform, just to inspect. If there were any vitions during the live streams, she didn''t mind making a scene in their channels. "The top ten most popr live streams should still be the same," Zhao Xuan thought to herself as she opened the live stream, finding familiar faces among the top ten streamers. However, in a blink of an eye, she noticed an unfamiliar live stream that ranked fifth in poprity! She had never seen this particr live stream before. "Could it be another pretty female anchor encountering a big spender again, with over twenty million viewers? Is it that high?" she wondered. With suspicion, she clicked on this particr live stream, and the name of the streamer immediately made Zhao Xuan understand. Wasn''t this the new male anchor she had signed with earlier today? How could he have such high poprity on the first day? Was it artificially inted? Zhao Xuan immediately checked the data and was surprised to find that all the data appeared normal. More curious now, she decided to stay in the live stream room to observe. "All set, I''m going to sing. If it''s not good, at least give me some face and don''t boo me." As soon as Jiang Siming finished speaking, his slender fingertips began strumming the guitar strings. The clear guitar sound echoed, resembling the sound of quiet springs in a serene night. The atmosphere in the live stream room instantly became tranquil. The melody transitioned from low to cheerful, then to a subtle mncholy. The guitar sound was clean, pure, and natural, like a breeze brushing against the face, or the sun setting on the horizon. The audience was captivated by the music and melody. Wang Xinyi, who stood quietly by the door, was deeply moved. When an expert acts, you can tell instantly. As soon as Jiang Siming started, she caught a glimpse. The level of his guitar ying was definitely not as basic as Jiang Siming imed, just knowing a little bit. "Brother-inw is too modest. With this level of guitar skills, he''s even better than my teacher." After a while of the melody, Jiang Siming''s voice echoed from the live broadcast microphone. "The rain outside the window has stopped, The lights inside the house are still on. Counting your indifference, ying with loneliness. I''m already thirsty before making a call, The nights I stayed up for you have turned cold. The sheep I counted have all run away, One, two, Mocking me, mocking my deaf ears..." More clean and pure than the guitar sound, the maic voice entered everyone''s ears almost abruptly. Deep with a tinge of sadness, like a weathered wanderer sharing their story by the fire. Almost everyone listening couldn''t resist the impact of this voice, sumbing one by one. Not only the vocal ''attack'', but the song itself made the audience feel unfamiliar yet enchanting. Apart from enjoying it, everyone''s only thought was: What song is this? Why have I never heard it before? The high-pitched part of the song arrived abruptly. "After a long time, I finally lifted my head to look, You were walking so slowly on the other side Leaving me in a dilemma between dozing off and reality After a long time, I finally lifted my head to look, You were waiting for me to be brave on the other side You are still mine, mine, mine, you see..." The sad melody and sentimental lyricspletely showcased the charm of this song. The audience was caught off guard andpletely captivated by this song! This song "Zou Ma (Galloping Horse)" was a very popr song in Jiang Siming''s memory, written by Chen Li. However, for some reason, ever since obtaining the "Singing Talent" skill, this song disappeared without a trace.o Jiang Siming had wanted to listen to it a few days ago, but couldn''t find it anywhere on the inte, even more so for many lesser-known but great songs, including the ones he liked before from Xu Song. Those songs seemed to have vanished too. Gradually, Jiang Siming began to understand the mystery behind this, it seemed to be rted to that lightning incident. Since this song didn''t appear, Jiang Siming decided to take it without hesitation. If it''s a gift from heaven, it would be foolish not to ept it. Only, this wasn''t Jiang Siming''s preference, so he only intended to sing a couple of songs in his free time, purely for entertainment. However, his performance unexpectedly left millions of viewers unable to stop watching. "Ah, how can it be so good!" "Mom, I''m in love, online love! Confessing to Jiang Siming!" "Goodness, with this singing and voice, he could easily be a singer, why do a livestream?" "I wasn''t interested in the gaming streamer who came to y games, but now, how can I go back to other streams after this?" "What''s the name of this song? It''s so good, I''ll search and y it in a loop all night tonight!" "No record of this song, could it be the streamer''s original creation? That''s incredible!" "From now on, add one more fan!" ... Because of this song, Jiang Siming''s livestream on the Douyu tform exploded in the early hours of the morning. The number of viewers in the livestream surged from 6 million to over 9 million, surpassing the second-ranked Xuxu Baobao and bing the second-highest in the weekly online ranking. Viewers were extremely generous with their gifts, showering them crazily. [Smile Smiling Bald Donkey] Emperor rewarded [Minopg] Livestream with 20 super rockets! [Smile Smiling Bald Donkey]: "Just broke up with my girlfriend, making me cry on such ate night, it''s really too much, but still thank you. The song is really good, I''ll live here from now on!" [No Sleep Unintentional] Emperor rewarded... [Fu Fuyun] King rewarded... [Hehuallin] Duke rewarded... Jiang Siming never expected that one song would attract so many nobles and fans. The number of his fan cards surged from 26,000 to 31,000. The livestream, originally at level 65, suddenly jumped to level 70! The level indicator changed from purple to bright red, looking particrly eye-catching. After singing the song, Jiang Siming thanked everyone one by one. "This song is written by me, and there is no official version yet, so there is no trial version online. If you like it, you can follow me. I''ll sing it for you when I have time." Just as he finished speaking, another super reward appeared! [Douyu?Xuan] user opened the [Emperor] title in [Ming]''s livestream! [Douyu?Xuan] Emperor rewarded [Ming] Livestream with Cosmic Spaceships (5000rmb/ship) x100! [Douyu?Xuan] Emperor: "What''s the name of this song?" 100 Cosmic Spaceships! This is worth 500,000 credit! Avish and inhumane disy! The half a million gift pushed Jiang Siming''s livestream level up by two and a half levels, reaching 7**. The high-level Douyu executives watching Jiang Siming''s livestream were shocked to see this ID. Isn''t this the general manager''s ID? The general manager is giving gifts to this guy! What kind of luck is this guy having? Even when PDD returned, the general manager didn''t send a single gift, let alone opening an emperor title in his livestream! Chapter 33 : New Skill: End Stream Quickly "Thank you to this online friend for the gift, and thanks to everyone for your presents. This song is called ''Trotting Horse.'' To show my gratitude, I''ll perform another act for you all! It''s a new skill I''ve learned!" As Jiang Siming said this, the audience became even more expectant. "What kind of skill? Is it singing again?" "I want to hear ''Trotting Horse'' again!" "It''s indeed an original song, amazing!" "What''s this skill? We won''t agree if there''s no exciting ''Trotting Horse''!" "Ming, you''re my husband now!" More than nine million viewers stared at the live broadcast, eager to see what Jiang Siming''s special skill was. But suddenly, the live stream went ck! Only then did everyone realize that Jiang Siming had ''tricked'' them. "Seriously! You learned to end a stream so swiftly on your first day?" "Ming, you naughty thing! pouty noises" "Over nine million viewers, and you just end it? So capricious!" "Ming, you''re mischievous. Does your family know?" "Ming! Come back! If you leave like this, will I be able to sleep tonight?" "Please, let me hear ''Trotting Horse'' once more!" However much the audience begged, Jiang Siming didn''t reappear. He only sent a chat message saying he was too tired today and would continue tomorrow. Reluctantly, the audience gave up. Before leaving, they hit the follow button, hoping to receive a notification when Jiang Siming started streaming again. Getting up from his seat, Jiang Siming stretchedzily. He had live-streamed the entire day and was indeed tired. "Senior, I never expected you to be such a popr streamer," Wang Xinyi, who had been waiting at the door, finally spoke as Jiang Siming ended the stream. "Ah, it''s nothing. It''s just that more people showed up today," Jiang Siming modestly replied. Wang Xinyi wasn''t fixated on that; instead, she shifted the conversation to the song "Trotting Horse." Music was what intrigued her the most. "Senior, did you really write ''Trotting Horse''?" Jiang Siming calmly nodded, feelingpletely at ease. He had a clear conscience. It was how fate arranged it, not his fault. "Senior, if you have time in the future, could you teach meposition? I also want to write songs, but I''m not very talented and can''t seem topose anything." Wang Xinyi pleaded with Jiang Siming earnestly. "I just wrote it randomly, nothing really presentable." Wang Xinyi vigorously shook her head and said, "No, senior, your musical talent is even better than our teacher''s. Please teach me, pretty please... umm... I can even cook for you every day in return, how about that?" "Oh, that condition, I''ll consider," Jiang Siming chuckled. With a glimmer of hope, Wang Xinyi became ecstatic. She immediately intensified her efforts, ran to Jiang Siming''s side, looped her arm around his, and started to act all coquettish. "Senior, my good senior, pretty please~" Uh-oh, trouble brewed. It was the summer season, and both of them were wearing lightweight clothes. Wang Xinyi, who was about to sleep, was only in her pajamas, nothing underneath. Clutching Jiang Siming''s arm like that, the physical contact between the two was challenging for Old Jiang to resist. Added to that, the young duo had been getting along well these past few days, with underlying romantic intentions. Suddenly, one of them hugged the other. A push followed. Wang Xinyi''s fragile body met the wall! The abrupt change startled Wang Xinyi. Just as she was about to scream, she found Jiang Siming''s face merely centimeters away from hers. With a face so handsome it quickened heartbeats, deep mesmerizing eyes, an enticing masculine scent, and robust arms... All of these made Wang Xinyi, like a startled deer, lose her bearings. "Do you know what the oue will be if you tease me like this in the middle of the night?" Jiang Siming''s light voice echoed near Wang Xinyi''s ear. "I didn''t... umm..." Before she could finish her sentence, her words disappeared. Her body, altered by a basic gic enhancer, seemed to have no resistance in this regard, sumbing instantly. They hadn''t interacted much or been in close proximity for long before this. Imagine it''s the dead of night, and a pure and lovely girl approaches you at such proximity¡ªcould anyone resist? The next day dawned bright and early. Opening his eyes, Jiang Siming found himself in an unfamiliar room, filled with the delightful scent of a girl, subtly fragrant. And in his armsy azy, exhausted ''little kitten.'' Thinking back onst night''s madness, Jiang Siming couldn''t help but chuckle at hisck of restraint. Sensing something, Wang Xinyi opened her eyes. Her usually clear eyes now carried a drunken and charming hint of peach blossoms due to Jiang Siming''s actionsst night. "Awake?" Jiang Siming asked with a smile. Wang Xinyi blushed and buried her head into the pillow, then couldn''t resist peeking out and snuggling into Jiang Siming''s embrace. "Senior... I like you..." This was Wang Xinyi''s bted confession. She wanted to say itst night, but it was too overwhelming, and Jiang Siming didn''t give her the chance for this heartfelt moment. "From now on, you''re a part of my family, alright?" "Okay..." Wang Xinyi responded meekly. Looking at the lovely figure before him, Jiang Siming felt another surge of emotion. "Ouch... Senior..." Fortunately, Wang Xinyi''s words brought Jiang Siming back to his senses. He remembered that he had been too rough on this girl who was experiencing this for the first time. The bedsheet stained with blood fromst night was still on the floor, a reminder that cooled Jiang Siming''s heated emotions. "You rest a little more; I''ll prepare breakfast for you." Jiang Siming spoke gently. "Okay, thank you, Senior~" Wang Xinyi sweetly replied, brimming with happiness. Jiang Siming got up and prepared breakfast, and Wang Xinyi started feeling a bit better, the pain subsiding. However, when Jiang Siming entered the room, he noticed that the bedsheets were gone. After breakfast, Wang Xinyi went to ss. Though still a bit ufortable, it wasn''t anything serious. The happiness outweighed the current physical difort, so she didn''t pay much attention to the pain. With nothing else to do, Jiang Siming began examining the Audi RS7 he had collected yesterday - it would be his first car in life! "Use fragments!" Jiang Siming silently said to himself. "Sessful use, ced in themunity parking lot." In Jiang Siming''s hand, there was now an exquisite and cool ck car key, adorned with Audi''s four-ring emblem. Dressed and ready, Jiang Siming hurried downstairs to themunity parking lot. Pressing the car key, a pleasing sound echoed in the parking lot''s center. Jiang Siming ran over and saw, among a pile of ordinary cars, even the most expensive reaching only a million, an exceptionally conspicuous ck ''Cheetah'' resting there! A strong impact hit him¡ªthe car resembled a fierce beast in the night, with a ck honeb-style front grille, giving the car an aggressive front face. The ck carbon-fiber styled front bumper, lip, wind knife, and side skirts indicated that this was not an ordinary coupe but a genuine violent beast of Austrian descent!" Chapter 34 : Audi RS7 Jiang Siming fell in love with this car at first sight, feeling certain that it was his own car. He pressed the key again, and the beep sound made him feelpletely at ease. "Hey buddy, this car costs over three hundred thousand?" A middle-aged man parking a Crown nearby casually asked Jiang Siming. Ignoring him, Jiang Siming walked over to the car and opened the door. The car''s interior was luxurious and understated. Sitting in the driver''s seat, the ergonomic leather seats felt incrediblyfortable. In the passenger seat were various documents: vehicle registration, purchase invoice, vehicle maintenance card, all bearing Jiang Siming''s name. Jiang Siming suddenly remembered something and hurried outside to check; his car still had its license te. [Shanghai A00008] This license te was also a gift from the gold fragments. Initially worried that the carcked any proof and might be seen as a ck-market or smuggled vehicle, Jiang Siming now felt relieved. The fragment was considerate, taking care of everything. Feelingpletely at ease, Jiang Siming got back into the car and started it eagerly. As the car slowly exited the residential area and onto the road, it attracted a lot of attention from pedestrians and drivers. Though not as expensive as luxury cars, its aesthetics rivaled any sports car under five million. Moreover, being a part of the sports car series, its 0-100 km/h eleration was as good as those five million sports cars. However, driving in the city was too congested for Jiang Siming''s liking. To experience the car''s real speed and performance, Jiang Siming took it onto the highway. Just as he entered the highway, Jiang Siming stepped on the gas. With the engine roaring, the car, like Jiang Siming''s Type 98k bullet, shot along the expressway! In less than two seconds, the speed exceeded 130 mph, and after two more seconds, it reached 180! The thrill of speed made Jiang Siming''s blood boil. As the speed increased, the push-back feeling rxed himpletely. From Shanghai to Kunshan and back, Jiang Siming took only an hour and a half. Having driven for over three hours outside, Jiang Siming checked the time; it was almost time for Wang Xinyi''s ss to end. She only had morning sses today and agreed for him to pick her up. Jiang Siming turned the car and headed to the Shanghai Conservatory of Music. The car''s roar attracted many students at the school gate. Although luxurious cars weremon in Shanghai, Jiang Siming''s car had an appealing appearance. Jiang Siming parked not far from the school gate, preparing to wait for Wang Xinyi. After sitting in the car for a while, Jiang Siming got out and leaned against the car door, smoking. He hadn''t realized the extent of his own charisma. Passing female students were mesmerized. "Look, there''s a super handsome guy!" "Oh my, my heart''s racing so fast!" "That handsome guy looks so cool smoking, I feel a bit dizzy, help me..." Jiang Siming, a 24-year-old "veteran" in society, dressed maturely, exuded youthful charm, and had a luxury car by his side. For women, especially those who haven''t entered society yet, this kind of charisma is like a mortar, leaving no room for anything to grow wherever it goes! Some asked for his phone number or WeChat, some screamed, some approached to ask for directions, and there were even those taking photos and videos of Jiang Siming. In short, by the time Jiang Siming finished smoking a cigarette, the girls at the entrance of the music school werepletely captivated. "Ah, they are all just ordinary, nothing catches my eye." Jiang Siming sighed inwardly. Just as he thought this, a graceful figure approached him. Exquisite face, skin as fair as snow, and a pair of peach blossom eyes that seemed to see through everything. She wore a red V-neck strap knit dress, the neckline just right, not revealing too much, but exposing her fair neck, appearing both fashionable and sexy. Her makeup was the trendy two-day drunk makeup from 2016, with red lips and a charming and seductive charm. This girl reminded Jiang Siming of Zhao Xuan, although her face was more attractive, her temperament couldn''tpare. Even though her dressing style and makeup were elegant and beautiful, she still couldn''t match Zhao Xuan''s natural mature charm and powerful aura. In any case, each had its own merits. The girl walked up to Jiang Siming, her voice soft. "Do you mind if I give you my WeChat?" Jiang Siming extinguished the burning cigarette with his fingertips, urately flicking it into the nearby trash can. "I already have a girlfriend, stay away from me, enchantress," Jiang Siming responded with a melodious voice. The girl chuckled, her eyes shining even brighter. She had never heard such a pleasant voice. "You''re still unmarried, what''s wrong with that?" The girl retorted without hesitation. Jiang Siming smiled, his eyes fixed on the girl, and said mischievously, "You can give me your WeChat, but leave me a kiss, do you dare?" The girl looked at Jiang Siming for several seconds, then boldly approached, tiptoed, and pecked him on the face. This act made the male students at the school gate howl like a pack of wolves. Their school flower actually took the initiative to approach another man! "As promised, give me your phone." The girl smiled, though she tried to appear calm, the blush on her face betrayed something. Jiang Siming didn''t expect the girl to be so straightforward, so he reluctantly took out his phone. She added Jiang Siming on WeChat, made a victorious V sign, bid him farewell, and walked away gracefully. Jiang Siming looked at the newly added WeChat friend, named "Jiang Lan." Jiang Siming didn''t pay much attention, wiped off the faint lipstick mark from his face, and continued to wait as if nothing had happened. After a while, Wang Xinyi, who had finished her ss, walked out of the school. Seeing Jiang Siming waving at her, Wang Xinyi''s face blossomed with a smile like a blooming flower. She immediately ran over to Jiang Siming, like a little bird flying into his arms. Just after charming a perfect goddess school flower, now he was off with the school''s "first love" that every guy had a crush on. Ignoring the murderous gazes of the male students around, Jiang Siming drove away with Wang Xinyi. The two returned to the residential area and went together to the neighborhood supermarket to buy a lot of groceries. Once back home, Wang Xinyi prepared a sumptuous lunch - lotus root soup, saliva chicken, braised lion''s head meatballs, plus two vegetarian dishes. It was so delicious that Jiang Siming couldn''t help but eat nearly four bowls of rice to his heart''s content. Seeing how much Jiang Siming enjoyed her cooking, Wang Xinyi couldn''t have been happier. In the afternoon, Jiang Siming needed to do a live broadcast, so Wang Xinyi obediently went back to her room and didn''t disturb him. After fermenting overnight, the video of Jiang Siming singing "Trotting Horse" fromst night went viral online. Manyizens fell in love with the song after listening to it. But because there wasn''t a preview version avable, they could only watch the video. This didn''t dampen the enthusiasm of arge number ofizens. Furthermore, yesterday evening, Jiang Siming topped the Asian server, winning over 20 chicken dinners in PUBG. Many content creators voluntarily edited the intense and violent moments of Jiang Siming''s gamey. Especially thest round, the showdown with OMG Xiao Hai, a top-notch yer, left viewers thrilled and excited. Chapter 35 : Soaring Popularity One hour left until Jiang Siming starts the live broadcast at 3:00 in the afternoon. The 99999 live room is already packed, with over a million online viewers, and the number is still rising. "Came here for the online video ''Trotting Horse''!" "Saw the Bilibili killing video, it''s amazing, came here to verify!" "Open the door, I want to hear the song!" "Start the ughter, Ming God, want to see you dominate the Asia server!" "Husband, when will you start the broadcast, sniff sniff..." "Such a talented husband is mine!" ... With soaring poprity, the momentum seems unstoppable! Jiang Siming''s live room is bing a potential top streamer, alongside veteran streamers like PDD and Xuxu Baobao on Douyu. Many veteran streamers envy Jiang Siming''s poprity, thinking he''s faking it, but after reporting, they received the reply, "He''s fine, it''s just your narrow-mindedness." Approaching three o''clock, Jiang Siming just satisfied his car addiction and returned home to start the live broadcast. As soon as he started, Jiang Siming was a bit dumbfounded ¨C what''s going on? Why are there so many people! Online viewers: 3,545,129, about 3.5 million. Poprity value: 8,787,544, about 8.5 million. These numbers left Jiang Siming bewildered. Yesterday, when he started the broadcast, the number of viewers was only a few hundred thousand, and the poprity was just over a million. Today''s broadcast data is somewhat scary. "So lively today, good afternoon, everyone." Jiang Siming greeted the audience through the microphone. "Finally started the broadcast, you''re one minutete!" "Ming God, you''re floating, you''re fifty secondste,pensate us with a performance of ''Trotting Horse''." "Specially here for ''Trotting Horse''!" "Came from Bilibili to learn some skills, is the streamer epting disciples?" "Husband, you finally arrived, I''ve been waiting for you for a long time." "I checked the chat, and many people are here for ''Trotting Horse,'' but this is not a music live broadcast. What should I do?" Jiang Siming''s mournful tone amused the audience, and they all said to sing a song and then let him go. Knowing that what you can''t have is the most tempting, Jiang Siming would never agree so easily. "Well, how about this, I''ll sing a song for everyone before ending the stream, is that okay?" Saying that, regardless of the audience''s opinions, Jiang Siming logged into the PUBG game, being this arrogant. A big streamer must have this kind of momentum! Well, he''s learning quite well, very much alike. "Yesterday when I was browsing Douyin, I found a video saying that the win94 is the weakest gun, and it talked a lot of trash. Today, I''ll y a round with the win94 to prove its worth." After saying that, Jiang Siming switched to the desert map and started the game! The audience who came to listen to music originally nned toe back in the evening, but upon hearing Jiang Siming''s words, they were curious and stayed to watch for a while. "Win94 is quite weak, I never use this gun anyway." "No scope attachment, only rely on iron sights, too difficult to y." "Ming God, don''t tell me you want to win with this gun?" "If you can win with Win94 for the whole match, that''s impressive!" "I believe in Ming God!" ... The lively chat ofments from the audience had both believers and non-believers. Unlike yesterday, where they said Jiang Siming bing the number one on the Asia server was a dream. Entering the vast desert map, Jiang Siming aimed at the busiest point in the desert, Pecado City! This ce is a paradise for desert bandits, like the bootcamp City of Sanhok and the airport on the ind, both being cities of bloodshed and violence. Jiang Siming chose the scariest boxing arena to parachute into, although there was a risk of not finding the Win94. Still, Jiang Siming parachuted faster than others, so even if he couldn''t find it, he could run away. As his parachute folded, a cool somersault, Jiang Simingnded on the third floor of the boxing arena. At this moment, many were still floating in the sky. Jiang Siming scanned the third floor; although there were plenty of guns, none were what he wanted. Even faced with the temptation of AK, M416, and even a tempting Kar98k, Jiang Siming ignored them all, sticking to his promise of only using Win94. Reaching the second floor, unfortunately, he still hadn''t found it! By this time, other yers had also arrived on the third floor and picked up their guns. The audience started worrying for Jiang Siming. "Why not pick up a gun first!" "Pick up a gun, get some kills, and when you find the Win94, you can switchter." "If you don''t pick up a gun now, you''re going to die, don''t be so fixated!" "Please, be sensible, I can hear footsteps downstairs..." Jiang Siming searched the second floor but found nothing. He continued down; someone was already following his footsteps from behind. Finally, against all odds, in a lounge on the first floor, Jiang Siming spotted the gun. Loading the gun was slow. The sound of loading bullets made the audience anxious. Just as he finished loading the bullets, the yer who had been searching for him arrived, holding a shotgun. Seeing Jiang Siming and the Win94 in his hands, the other yerughed, a look of absolute confidence on his face. Lifting the thick ck gun barrel, he intended to give Jiang Siming a double spraybo. However, Jiang Siming calmly raised his gun and pulled the trigger. The pleasing sound of Win94 bullets was like a muffled torpedo. Yet within that muffled sound, it contained the long-suppressed powerful force. Bullets pierced through, and the yer holding the spray gun fell to the ground with a face full of unwillingness. A pleasant white light appeared in the box. "Picked up [Shotgun Mastery] fragment *1 (1/1), fragment quantity is full, can be used directly." A good game skill, Jiang Siming epted the fragment and turned around, gun in hand, charging up to the second floor. With only a Win94 in hand, he exuded an imposing aura as if he was fully equipped with legendary gear. On the second floor, three yers were in a gunfight, and one of them, unable to resist the two-pronged attack, tried to escape. But Jiang Siming snatched him with a Kobe Bryant-style shot. The yer who could have taken the head was infuriated, and aiming his AK at Jiang Siming, he wanted to turn him into a sieve. Mind you, Jiang Siming was ying the big league! The number one in the Asia server with 4500 points! The opponents he was matched with were the cream of the crop, the top yers in their respective segments. The yer with the AK was a technically skilled streamer with some poprity on YY Live. Having just won a chicken dinner, his live stream was thriving, with tens of thousands of viewers watching. "Wanted to steal kills? I''ll make you die rhythmically!" As he cursed, he raised his gun to shoot! This streamer''s recoil control was quite good; logically, Jiang Siming, fully exposed without cover, was supposed to die. But Jiang Siming, relying on histeral movement and body twisting, miraculously avoided this deadly spray of bullets. "What the hell is this? Is he a goddamn magician?" The small streamer cursed, adjusting his gun to regain control of the situation. Sessfully adjusting the gun, he found Jiang Siming. However, from the small streamer''s scope, the figure that seemed like an easy target was now lifting the seemingly harmless Win94 in his hands. Bang! The small streamer''s vision went ck, and he became a lifeless body on the ground, rolling down from the spectator seats. Chapter 36 : PUBG Mike Tyson "I f*** his ****!" "This is damn ridiculous! He must be eating s***!" "F*** him!" The small streamer angrily threw his keyboard and cursed loudly, but the viewers in the live stream did not agree with him. "Do you see this ID? Stupid streamer!" "He''s [ming], do you recognize it? The new Asia server number one." However, the small streamer ignored theirments and continued his rant. "The first d*** in the Asia server, a damn cheater who got the first ce by cheating, f*** him..." This behaviorpletely displeased his audience. "Don''t understand, just blindly curse. This kind of streamer is disgusting. Unfollowed, bye." "I''m going to watch Ming God on Douyu, this stream is just full of curses." "Encounter a skilled yer and use them of cheating? Is it so hard to admit that others are strong?" "Saying others are cheating, please provide evidence. Even Weishen and Xiaoshizi say it''s not cheating, and the monitoring station says everything is fine. Are you more professional than them?" "I used to quite like you, didn''t expect you to be like this. Unfollowed, goodbye." The online viewers in the live stream, which originally had over ten thousand people, suddenly plummeted to just a few thousand. These remaining viewers were also arge group that continued to criticize him. Watching the attention he had painstakingly umted over the past few months drop in less than a minute, the small streamer waspletely dumbfounded. Jiang Siming had no idea about all this, and even if he did, he would have considered such a person nothing more than a nuisance. After dealing with the small streamer, who had been hiding and healing at the staircase, Jiang Siming moved on to the third yer. Slyly poking his head out from the staircase, the third yer attempted tounch a surprise attack. But Jiang Siming, who had been keeping an eye on him, wouldn''t let him have his way. As soon as the head appeared, Jiang Siming turned around and shot him, without even using the scope. The person looked shocked as he fell on the stairs, and the viewers eximed, amazed that Win94 could also be quick-scoped! "The damage of Win94 is actually very high, equivalent to the 98k. Moreover, it has a hidden attribute you guys don''t know about¡ªit can stack damage. As long as you hit the first shot, the damage of the second shot will increase slightly. So, as long as you can hit, even if you only hit the enemy''s armor, three shots are guaranteed to kill." Amid the killings, Jiang Siming took a moment to educate his viewers. After clearing the second floor by removing the enemy''s armor and healing items, he continued toward the third floor. Exiting the boxing arena, Jiang Siming already had seven kills. Mainly because he couldn''t find the gun when hended, so he couldn''t participate in the early fights. When he arrived, many yers had already died. At this point, Jiang Siming carried two Win94s on his back, both equipped with bullet loops to significantly speed up the reloading process. Dadada... In the hotel''s top floor, an ambush yer who had been waiting for a long time aimed his gun at Jiang Siming and began firing rapidly. yers in high-ranked tiers had truly impressive skills. This person wedged themselves in a corner behind a window, exposing only a tiny part of their head. Moreover, the opponent''s marksmanship was excellent, hitting Jiang Siming three times in quick session. With a Level 2 vest, Jiang Siming couldn''t withstand the assault for long, and his health rapidly decreased. "For situations like this, don''t panic, and don''t just run away blindly. Do what I did¡ªadjust your angle to dodge bullets, and when he needs to readjust his aim, counter-attack!" Jiang Siming exined as he demonstrated the maneuver, quicklynding a headshot on the enemy above. The live chat was flooded with "6666." Watching Jiang Siming''s gaming livestream was like witnessing a highlight reel of kills. While others might struggle to pull off such impressive ys, for Jiang Siming, it seemed to happen effortlessly whenever he spotted an enemy. After dealing with the sneaky yer upstairs, Jiang Siming took cover in a corner to heal. At that moment, a blonde girl drove into the area from outside the city, and her direction seemed to be toward Jiang Siming. Thinking it was an enemy, Jiang Siming was about to raise his gun. However, the girl honked the horn frantically and signaled. Curious, Jiang Siming opened all voice channels. "Ming God, don''t shoot me! I''m your fan~" Jiang Siming chuckled, surprised to encounter a fan, especially a female one! Of course, he spared her, putting away his gun. Jiang Siming smiled and asked, "How did you end up in my game?" "Sniping! Waiting for you to open fire, and then I''ll start shooting too," the girl replied. "Alright, are you here to deliver equipment to me? Thanks in advance," Jiang Siming said with a friendly smile. "No, I''m here to challenge you," the girl replied straightforwardly. Jiang Siming was left speechless and could only cough to cover up his embarrassment. The chat was filled with amusement. "Ming God: Are you my caretaker? Fan: No, I''m here to beat you." "This is so awkward; the streamer has no face~" "This girl is so amusing, challenging Ming God?" "Hahaha, Ming God is probably thinking ''MMP'' in his heart." Jiang Siming couldn''t help but feel awkward. The first time he encountered a female fan in the game, she turned out to be there to challenge him. "Alright, what do you want topete in? You can use any gun you like, and I''ll stick with my win94," Jiang Siming offered. But the girl didn''t agree. "I want topete with you using fists!" Jokingly, she challenged Jiang Siming to a fistfight. After all, who specifically trained for this? If she happened to kill Jiang Siming, that would be something to brag about. "Are you sure?" Jiang Siming revealed a smirk with a hint of profound meaning. He did have the skill "Fist Mastery," and he hadn''t used it yet. "Sure, we''ll be in the boxing arena, and no helmets allowed. You can start with full health," the girl suggested. "No need, this much health is enough. Let''s say I''ll let you throw the first two punches," Jiang Siming said generously. The girl didn''t hold back either. Both entered the boxing ring. "This girl thinks I''m only good with guns, but she doesn''t know I have another identity, ''PUBG Mike Tyson''!" The audience obviously didn''t believe this statement. "Bluff, keep bluffing!" "Ming God looks so cool when he''s bragging!" "Waiting for the girl to single-handedly kill the streamer." The viewers enjoyed the spectacle. The girl facing Jiang Siming even kindly warned him, "Ming God, I often y custom boxing matches and have won many times. Be careful!" "Oh, I''ve encountered the ''Female Boxing Queen.'' Alright, I''ll give it my all," Jiang Siming responded with a smile. And so, the boxing match officially began! The girl started moving around the ring, asionally crouching and throwing punches provocatively. It seemed like she knew how to have some fun in a fight. "Girl, are you performing acrobatics?" Jiang Siming asked with augh. "Ming God, this is my invented ''PUBG Free Combat Technique.'' You can''t handle it," the girl proudly dered. "Alright," Jiang Siming chuckled and then asked the audience very seriously, "This cute girl..." "If Ind a punch, she''ll probably cry for a long time, right?" The audience burst intoughter. Was that even something a person would say? You find the girl cute, and your response is to give her a punch? Old Jiang, are you out of your mind? Having said that, Jiang Siming rushed toward the girl, leaped high in mid-air, and threw a powerful punch. Mid-swing, Jiang Siming yfully shouted, "Pegasus Meteor Fist!" Despite the girl''s attempt to dodge, Jiang Siming urately predicted her position, and the punchnded on her head. With that powerful punch, the girl was unexpectedly knocked out... "yer [ming] uses fists to kill yer [qaqzz]." Chapter 37 : Most Beautiful Confession Looking at the girl lying in a pool of blood, the audience felt both sympathy and found it somewhat funny. "Girl: I''m the boxing champion! Ming God: Oh." "Hahaha, I''m almost bursting withughter." "One for the fans, minus one for the haters." "The girl was puzzled, ''Aren''t I the boxing champ?''" "This is too much! They''ve killed the girl! Seriouslycking thumbs-up!" Jiang Siming, feeling a bit embarrassed, gave a sheepish smile and said to the girl, now a corpse, "Sorry about that, my punches were too strong, couldn''t hold back." Unexpectedly, the girl suddenly started crying! "Wuwa~~ Ming God, you''re bullying me~" "This... I was wrong, can''t I be forgiven? What do you want me to do? As long as it''s reasonable, I''ll agree." "Really?" "Yeah, really." "Then I want you to flirt with me in the gentlest voice possible, can you do that?" "Um... that''s also okay." Agreeing to it, the girl stopped crying and eagerly awaited Jiang Siming''s attempt at flirting. "Don''t use cheesy lines, I prefer something more artistic." "Your demands are high, if you want to listen, then shut your mouth!" Jiang Siming pretended to ''scold'' in a not-so-angry manner, the other party chuckled and didn''t speak again. The audience was also curious about what Jiang Siming would say, would Ming God flirt? Could it be something overly masculine? After clearing his throat, Jiang Siming became serious in tone, and when he did, the audience couldn''t handle it, especially the female audience, who couldn''t help but clench their legs together... "Do you know?" "To like you is probably to give up a thousand times in my heart. But as long as you turn around once, I''ll rekindle hope to love you again." "Even if everything were destroyed and the yearning entered my bones, I would still treat you as if it were the beginning, as if time stood still." "I truly wish to spend my life with you, making tea with melted snow, watching the lights of a thousand homes under the same sky, and returning home when the moon sets." After finishing in one breath, Jiang Siming realized the live room had fallenpletely silent. Then, the crying of that female viewer could be heard again. Unlike the previous time, which seemed fake, this time it was a soft sob, a genuine cry. "Ming God, thank you. That was the most beautiful confession I''ve ever heard. Thank you. I''m leaving now, goodbye." With that, the female viewer went silent. "Ming God, you made the girl cry with your words." "I''m amazed! These lines are a million times better than those cringy ones!" "Memorize them, for future confessions!" "Such a beautiful voice,bined with such beautiful words, it''s too impactful for us girls!" "Sob sob, you made me cry too, Ming God, you big bad guy. I want you to snipe me too, say sweet words to me~" Jiang Siming never expected it to turn out this way. Could it be the girl''s first time hearing such poetic confessions? It was way too easy to win her over, wasn''t it? Jiang Siming shut off all voice chat, leaving the boxing ring and continuing on. The two Win94 rifles once again made their appearance, causing a dy in time due to ''friendly exchanges'' with viewers. At this point, the poison zone was already in its fourth wave, and the safe zone was far away. Despite the small circle, the map still showed over forty people. This was what PUBG without cheaters looked like. A year ago, when cheating was rampant, by the time the first poison zone appeared, there were only ten or twenty yers left in the game. Now, without cheaters, almost every match had a significant number of yers reaching the final circle, it felt so much more realistic. However, Jiang Siming encountered so many yers in the final circle because he hadn''t been out killing but was busy engaging with viewers. This allowed these yers to survive until now. Before he could even drive into the circle, Jiang Siming was intercepted by a yer already inside the zone. Even though the yer hadn''t entered the safe area themselves, they didn''t allow Jiang Siming in. In the next moment, Jiang Siming pulled the handbrake, jumped out of the car, Win94 in hand, and fired a shot in that direction. After the shot, Jiang Siming didn''t even spare a nce at the person, got back into the car, and continued on, looking extremelyposed. "yer [ming] eliminated yer [xxoo] with Win94." The audience had be somewhat numb to this. The word ''show'' in Jiang Siming''s live stream was a constant presence. Only the new viewers expressed their amazement, while the older onesforted them like an elder sibling would. "Don''t be so surprised. Can''t you stay calm?" "This is the usual state in Ming God''s stream. Neers, take notes." "Having been here for two days, let me tell you, watching Ming God''s stream requires full attention. Otherwise, you''ll miss a fantastic move." "Neers, take your lessons. Cheers, everyone!" Just as he drove into the circle, Jiang Siming''s conspicuous and arrogant vehicle drew attention from yers scattered around. The car was about to explode, so he had no choice but to abandon it, temporarily hiding in a ditch, tending to his wounds. Jiang Siming''s position was dire; merely exposing himself meant at least three people could spot him. Coupled with this high-level segment of the game, even Jiang Siming, not being a deity, could easily falter if he wasn''t careful. The audience couldn''t help but worry for Jiang Siming. It seemed like Ming God was about to die, and this match was beyond hope for him. However, it wasn''t entirely his fault; that particr viewer had disrupted his rhythm for far too long. Otherwise, given Jiang Siming''s style of y, there wouldn''t have been this many people left in the final circle at this stage, and he wouldn''t have ended up in such a terrible position. Watching alongside the audience were the 4am team members, currently in the Base Club''s office. Weishen led the group, with several other team members gathered around, along with a few manager-coach figures seated on the side. Theirputers were streaming Jiang Siming''s live broadcast. "This guy is finally about to bite the dust," Xiao Xingmu said somewhat gleefully. After all, he still remembered the grudge from being wiped out by Jiang Siming. It felt satisfying to see him facing defeat. "He''s not dead yet," Weishen said, a bit exasperated. "Look at this crappy position. I checked, and he''s surrounded by at least six top-tier yers. It''s absurd to think he can survive," Xiao Xingmu analyzed reasonably. "Yeah, this position is terrible. And he''s still using two Win94 rifles, is he just fooling around?" Aluka also agreed. Weishen nced at Coach Aluo. The middle-aged man with golden-rimmed sses kept his eyes fixed on theputer screen, a glint of wisdom shining in his eyes. "Whether he lives or dies isn''t what we should focus on," Coach Aluo spoke up. "What we''re observing is how he handles such an extreme disadvantage, whether he can stayposed and make some counter-attacks." The manager nodded in agreement, adding, "We''ve been watching this person''s livestream for two days. We''ve only seen him excel in favorable situations, taking advantageous positions and getting kills." "Excelling in favorable circumstances doesn''t indicate real prowess. It''s only in adversity that one''s true professional ability can be tested. Otherwise, no matter how strong he seems, he''d only be a casual streamer in the gaming world," the coach supplemented. "Xdd from Douyu is a perfect example. He''s impressive in casual modes, showcasing skillful moves and getting chicken dinners easily. But once RNG invited him to y professionally, it''s been a different story. He hasn''t even been able to formallypete. Why? Because he can''t handle disadvantaged situations; he''s quick to get impulsive and die in gunfights." After thesements, the group fell silent, watching the livestream silently. Chapter 38: Reaction Speed Beyond Human Limit Weishen was eager, hoping that Jiang Siming could perform well. He was keen on recruiting this teammate into his team. Experience more tales on M V L Because his intuition told him that this person was so strong that they could transform the game! "The position is really bad. Three people have their guns aimed at me, waiting for me to show myself. If I peek, it''s no different from giving away my life." Jiang Siming was very aware of his situation. He stayed still in the ditch, analyzing for the audience. "In such a situation, if you truly want to be a pro, never panic. Use all the avable points you know, such as the one closest to me, that protruding rock at the foot of the mountain. It''s the most likely to reveal my position. So, if I throw a smoke grenade towards his location, I can temporarily evade one of the dangers." "However, even if you have a lot of smoke grenades, you can''t cover the positions of the other two. Because then, you won''t know any of their positions. The moment you run out from the smoke grenades, you''ll still get shot." "So, to seek advantage and avoid harm, you need to keep one enemy''s position that you''re confident you can eliminate. If it''s someone with weak skills, I suggest choosing the person on the right side of the hill; they''re easier to kill." "But I''m choosing the one directly ahead at the window in the housing area. No more talk, action!" His analysis had the audience engrossed, and it made 4am''s coach, Aluo, even more intrigued. Jiang Siming urately sealed off the positions on the left and right with smoke grenades. When the smoke dissipated, Jiang Siming emerged from the ditch and ran forward. The yer with the 98k rifle, not obscured by smoke, shot at Jiang Siming without hesitation. But Jiang Siming was much quicker than them in firing! While they were aiming, Jiang Siming had already shot with the Win94. The bullet went through the window, hitting the opponent in the forehead. "Darn it!" Jiang Siming cursed because he hadn''t noticed the opponent was wearing a level-3 helmet. One shot hadn''t instantly taken them out, making Jiang Siming''s position even more precarious. The smoke began to dissipate. Starting from the left, the yer near the cliff had already spotted him and aimed! The yer who got hit on the head initially intended to use medicine but abandoned it upon seeing Jiang Siming get attacked, choosing to continue exchanging fire. This was the difference between a pro and a rookie. When rookies get hit, their first thought is to use medicine and restore their health before engaging again. But pros adapt to the situation and never easily spend so much time making their situation more dangerous. Suddenly, under attack from three sides. No, it was from three fronts! The smoke on the right also dissipated! Under such a three-sided assault, even someone as strong as Jiang Siming couldn''t face it head-on. But Jiang Siming didn''t give up. Instead, he began weaving in ce, moving at the limits to dodge bullets. To the amazement of onlookers, Jiang Siming, in a critical situation with three opponents attacking at close range, managed to evade! These three opponents weren''t rookies; every shot they made was aimed precisely at Jiang Siming. Three opponents at close range shooting at him, yet he managed to escape. This was unbelievable! And everyone knew that what caused this seemingly impossible survival was Jiang Siming''s movements! To others, it seemed like pointless twisting and turning, but for Jiang Siming, it allowed him to dodge one deadly bullet after another. Of course, Jiang Siming didn''t escape unscathed; he took several hits, but he dodged all the fatal 98k shots. "That was so close! One shot away, and I would''ve been dead. I have to be grateful that the guy at the window was too confident in his sniping skills. If he had just aimed with a rifle, I''d have been done for." Jiang Siming also felt like he''d narrowly escaped a disaster. Since obtaining the fragments, it had been a long time since he''d experienced such an adrenaline-pumping game atmosphere. Not only unafraid but also making Jiang Siming''s blood boil, his desire to perform skilled maneuvers surged to unprecedented heights! "Since you can''t kill me, then be prepared to leave your lives behind!" Jiang Siming''s tone suddenly became serious, transforming from an ordinary youth into a ruthless assassin. Having filled up his health, Jiang Siming exposed himself from the depression and quickly sniped, instantly killing the yer under the left cliff with a headshot! With them all firing at once gone, the current situation was still manageable, and Jiang Siming could start eliminating them one by one! The yer behind the right slope heard Jiang Siming''s shots and immediately revealed himself, attempting to ambush. But unexpectedly, after finishing off the yer on the left, Jiang Siming swiftly aimed at him. It was as if he had known the opponent''s intentions in advance. Bang! Two shots from the Win94 took away two unwilling souls. Under the quick sniping, there were no lingering spirits! Two headshot kills made the yer at the window with a level-3 helmet shiver. "This guy is a pro! He''s a pro!" That person''s mind was filled with this single thought. Very wisely, he chose to abandon a direct gunfight with Jiang Siming and instead camped in a room, waiting for Jiang Siming to run into the him due the posion gas before attacking. After all, Jiang Siming had to run through the gas. But he didn''t expect Jiang Siming to boldly enter his ''trap.'' Before the circle refreshed, Jiang Siming was already running toward his building. "So, you can''t me me for being sneaky, pro." The yer with the level-3 helmet revealed a sinister smile. He didn''t care about fairness or unfairness; he only wanted rankings and scores! Facing the already approaching Jiang Siming, he immediately leaned out of the window, ready to take down his opponent with a rifle. But what made him feel hopeless was that just as his helmet peeked out of the window, the moment his vision barely caught sight of Jiang Siming. A shot from the Win94 rang out, prating through his skull! Reaction speed! Almost beyond human limits! In the instant the opponent''s helmet barely appeared, a quick snipe was fired. How crazy was this reaction speed? Not to mention the viewers in the live broadcast expressing their amazement. Even in the 4am base, exmations of disbelief were heard! "Is this guy still human?" "This is too amazing. Compared to him, I, as a professional yer, feel utterly embarrassed!" "Is this really not cheating? Why can''t I believe it?" "Human-shaped aimbot, confirmed." ... Even Weishen was shocked. He honestly admitted that such reactions might be possible when he was in top form during his professional days ying League of Legends. However, now he could ensure that he could never reach that level. Coach Aluo stood up at this moment, excitedly saying, "We must do everything in our power to recruit this person! Contact him immediately!" "Are you sure?" the manager asked. Aro didn''t speak, but he opened his tablet, disying the hexagonal diagrams representing the skills of 4am''s yers. Each angle of the hexagon corresponds to: marksmanship, awareness, reaction time, vehicle skills, physical agility, and leadership. Each yer''s hexagonal diagram had its strengths and weaknesses. For example, the youngest team member, Yongyuan, was good in marksmanship, reaction time, and vehicle skills, butcked in other areas. Of course, his role in the team wasn''tmand-oriented, so awareness and leadership were irrelevant to him. Physical agility, except for Weishen who was slightly better, was almost a weak point for everyone. Weishen''s hexagonal diagram was well-rounded, with strengths in each aspect. However, whenpared to thetest hexagonal diagram that had just been revealed, he was merely considered good. Everyone''s eyes were fixed on that new hexagonal diagram, and their astonishment was palpable. This was an almost perfect hexagonal diagram, with marksmanship, reaction time, vehicle skills, and physical agility all maxed out. Only awareness and leadership were slightly weaker, but they were also very close to being fully developed. In short, this was a hexagonal diagram approaching perfection! Chapter 39: Hexagon Max Previously, A Luo analyzed theprehensive strength of all domestic professional yers using a hexagonal model. Among the best were OMG''s Xiao Shizi, 17 Gaming''s Shou, 4AM''s former yer and current member of SSS Gaming, Zhou Lili, and the eldest brother A+ from Ify, and so on. Their hexagonal profiles could only bepared with Wei Shen''s; some were close, while some were slightly higher. Now, with this new hexagonal model, A Luo could confidently im that, whether domestically or internationally, this formation would undoubtedly be the top in the world! "Really? Is it all settled?" Little Xingmu still seemed a bit incredulous. Coach A Luo chuckled and said, "Originally, I wasn''t sure about his awareness andmand abilities until today, but after watching his recent gamey, I can confirm that this person, even in squad matches, will be a verypetent lead!" "In that case, I''ll contact him immediately!" Manager Lu Yun also pped in excitement. "There''s one issue: he''s streaming on Douyu, while our entire team is on Huya. Will there be trouble?" A Luo expressed concern. "I''ll negotiate the streaming issue with Huya and Douyu. Ideally, we''d like to persuade him toe to Huya. If that''s not possible, streaming on both tforms won''t be an issue. It''s his personal freedom," Manager Lu Yun replied. Wei Shen added, "We need to be quick. I''m sure other teams, especially OMG and 17, also have their eyes on this person. They are actively recruiting new members." Experience new tales on M V L "In that case, I''ll get in touch immediately!" Upon hearing this, Lu Yun became eager and immediately set off. Wei Shen''s guess was correct. Not only 4AM, but many professional PUBG teams were showing varying levels of interest in Jiang Siming. Among them, 17 Gaming and RNG were the most eager. OMG wasn''t particrly interested in Jiang Siming because their team roster was full, and their members had been cooperating smoothly for over a year. They didn''t want to easily change team members. However, RNG and 17 Gaming highly valued Jiang Siming. Their teams needed someone of his caliber. 17 Gaming heavily relied on Shou''s individual performance, while the other three members'' skills were average. RNG had a bnced overall team strength; their technical levels were simr, not particrly outstanding but not weak either. They had previously invited Xdd, but his ystyle inpetitions was reckless, simr to casual matches. He was impulsive, immature in mindset, and couldn''t shoulder the team leadership. Even now, he was still undergoing coach training. Jiang Siming was unaware that several teams were vying to recruit him. This match was getting more exhrating for Jiang Siming. The final circle had a significant number of yers, and Jiang Siming frequently encountered two or even three opponents at once. The tension and excitement pushed Jiang Siming to perform at his utmost level. Almost every battle in the finals was a life-or-death situation! As the final circle approached its climax, Jiang Siming, using his two Win94s, once again eliminated four top yers, securing a "chicken dinner" against all odds! "Phew! That was exhausting." Jiang Siming breathed a sigh of relief; primarily because he only had two Win94s, and each time the circle closed in, it was unfavorable. There were too many yers around, so winning was already a miracle. The audience found it exhrating, and the big spenders in the live chat appeared, showering gifts without hesitation. Surely, the content creators in the live stream room were about to get busy again, but they were more than willing. This match was filled with highlight-worthy ys that would undoubtedly draw attention and garner a surge in followers for themselves as well. Jiang Siming watched as his level in the live stream increased by two,op feeling pleased. Plus, thatst chicken dinner rewarded him with two fragments: one golden and one ck. He hadn''t seen a ck fragment before. He first opened the golden fragment, and its contents made his mouth water! "Acquired [Detached Vi within Shanghai Lujiazui Inner Ring] Fragment*1 (1/3), Insufficient Fragments, Unable to Use." Detached vi, Shanghai Lujiazui, within the inner ring. Jiang Siming felt as if a multimillion or even multimillion-dor treasure was beckoning to him. However, he wasn''t the same poor kid anymore, excited about just five thousand. Besides the initial contract fee of two million, Jiang Siming had received nearly two million from the money from gifts, split evenly with the tform after that. Adding to this, the golden currency fragments he obtained in-game totaled over one million. Currently, Jiang Siming had nearly six million in his bank ount. After safely storing the vi fragment, Jiang Siming proceeded to open the ck fragment that had never appeared before. "Acquired [ck Technology Series: Game Program Modifier] Fragment*1 (1/1), Fragment is Full, Can be Directly Used." ck technology? Jiang Siming was somewhat surprised and immediately clicked to use it. In his hand was something resembling a chip, with a miniature screen on it. The information about this device also entered Jiang Siming''s mind. [Game Program Modifier]: Can modify the internal programs or data of any game worldwide without using any hacking methods, undetectable even by the world''s most robust firewalls. Note: This modifier can only be used once within 15 days, and it''s advisable not to make drastic changes to avoid drawing attention. After understanding the information about this item, Jiang Siming was utterly astonished. Indeed, it was ck technology. This thing was way too advanced. Easily breaching game loopholes and casually altering game programs. Jiang Siming only needed to input the game''s name into this chip using his thoughts to perform the aforementioned operations. This was a nightmare for major gamepanies. Using this chip in online games to make money or casually modify game ount items and sell them for cash¡ªit was entirely possible. However, he couldn''t use this thing too recklessly, or it would undoubtedly attract attention from thosepanies. Jiang Siming temporarily stored away this ck technology and resumed his live streaming. Suddenly, his phone rang, interrupting Jiang Siming''s streaming. ncing at his phone, seeing an unknown number, he thought it might be a sales call. Still, he picked it up intending to hang up in a second. "Hello..." Before the caller could speak, Jiang Siming cut them off. "I''m not buying a car or a house, I don''t have money to invest in a store, I''ve already bought social insurance, and I don''t needmercial insurance. Also, I''ve won a Mercedes-Benz this year, two Volkswagen CCs, three Rolex watches, four global travel tickets, and nearly twenty million in cash, from various TV stations and major variety shows. So, I don''t need any more lottery notifications. That''s all I have to say. Do you have anything else to add? If not, I''m hanging up." The audience burst intoughter upon hearing Jiang Siming''s slick "self-introduction." "This sounds so proficient, how many times have you said it?" "Hahaha, it seems like Mr. Ming has been annoyed by sales calls many times, quite experienced." "Sales calls are indeed annoying. The winning messages and calls I receive are almost identical to what Ming-shen said." "Hrious! The other party is speechless, hangs up, and probably adds you to the cklist." "Salesperson: You''ve finished reciting my lines, what else can I add?" Chapter 40: Recruitment By Major Teams What both Jiang Siming and the audience didn''t expect was that the person wasn''t a salesperson. "Your eloquence is impressive, Ming God, but I''m not here to sell you anything. I''m 4AM''s manager, Lu Yun. I''d like to discuss something about joining a professional esports team. Are you interested?" Wow! This news stunned the audience in the live stream. 4AM wanted to recruit Jiang Siming! "I know you''re live right now, so how about we talk after your stream?" "Uh, sure, I''ll call you after I''m done with the stream." "Alright, I''ll wait for your call." Click After hanging up, Jiang Siming gave an awkward smile to the audience. "I didn''t expect it wasn''t a sales pitch. Well, let''s continue with the live stream." "Don''t! 4AM is inviting you to join their team, Ming God, do you agree or not?" "You''ll be with Weishen''s team, Ming God, aren''t you excited?" "Is Ming God going pro? Will that leave him with no time for streaming?" "I''m really looking forward to Ming God''s performance in professional matches, agree, agree!" The audience temporarily lost interest in watching the stream, all bombarding thements to ask if Jiang Siming was willing to go pro. Jiang Siming pondered for a moment and said, "Of course, I want to go pro. Real strong yers don''t settle for casual matches. I also want topete with professional yers on the stage." Changing the subject, Jiang Siming added, "But I''m used to being free-spirited. I might not adapt well to the routine of training in a club every day. I still prefer streaming as my main focus, after all, you guys are my most ''beloved'' people!" "Aww, that almost got me believing it." "Ming God, you''re awesome, just for that, I''m your fan!" "So cheesy, but I love hearing it!" "Will 4AM agree to this?" "If he joins 4AM, how will he continue streaming on Douyu? Will it affect that?" Seeing everyone asking one question after another, Jiang Siming felt overwhelmed. "Alright, everyone, stop asking. I''ll talk about the details after I finish the stream. Once I have the results, I''ll let you all know." Ring ring... The phone rang again, and Jiang Siming picked it up to listen. "Hello, I''m Wang Dong, the manager of RNG''s PUBG Club." After hanging up this call, 17shou, the captain of the 17 team from Douyu''s live stream, came to Jiang Siming''s live room. "Brother Ming, our team also wants to discuss your joining. How about we talk after your stream ends?" After sending off one team invitation after another, Jiang Siming finally managed to continue the stream quietly. However, at this point, the audience''s attention had already shifted from the stream. This "glorious and face-saving" event happened right before their eyes. In an instant, four or five teams invited Ming God, which was a huge show of respect! This was the greatest recognition of Jiang Siming''s skill. Who would dare doubt that he''s cheating! Everyone was discussing fervently, suggesting which team Jiang Siming should join, arguing over 4AM, RNG, 17 teams, and more. They even argued vehemently, and Jiang Siming felt overwhelmed. Fortunately, after some time, the rhythm calmed down. Jiang Siming streamed until evening, and Wang Xinyi had already prepared dinner outside. Jiang Siming didn''t feel like continuing the stream and nned to end it. "After the stream ends, ''Trotting Horse''¡ªhand it over!" "You promised to sing after the stream! No backing out!" "He''s finally here." "Music lovers, assemble! Ming God''s going to sing!" "Singing just one song won''t cut it. Ending the stream so early, you should sing at least two!" "Absolutely, two songs. Let''s make that a happy decision." "Alright, alright. I''m sorry for ending the stream early today. I''ll sing two songs, alright? Hang on, let me grab the guitar." Saying this, Jiang Siming ran off to borrow a guitar from Wang Xinyi. He nned to buy a new guitar in the next few days. He couldn''t keep borrowing his girlfriend''s; she might need it too. Upon hearing Jiang Siming was going to sing, the audience in the live stream immediately spread the news around. Many viewers from other streamers'' rooms came after hearing this. 78622 live stream room: "Wait for a bit, I''ll listen to someone singing and be right back." The streamer paused the song, opened the live tform, found the room they wanted to search for, and clicked to enter. "Er Ke, are you also going to listen to Ming God singing?" "Oh no, has Er Ke also fallen for it?" "78622 live stream room has fallen, hope other female streamers are okay." "I listened to ''Trotting Horse'' today, it''s really good." Discover more stories at M V L "The key is that the singer wrote this song themselves. Talented and great vocals, it''s hard not to get popr!" 241431 live stream room. "Oh my, I''ve been obsessed with ''Trotting Horseop''tely. My version just now sounded awful. Let''s watch the original singer perform it, hehe." This female streamer also paused her own live broadcast and plunged into Jiang Siming''s live stream. "Wow! I just came from Er Ke''s ce, she fell for it too?" "Uh-oh, Xiaosufei''s live stream also sumbed. Other female streamers, hold on!" "Ming God is like a goddess harvester! He''s only been on Douyu for a few days, and a bunch of female streamers are mesmerized by him." "Xiaosufei, you gotta hold on!"Because everyone wanted to hear the original version of ''Trotting Horse'', the online audience in Room 99999 had already reached over 6 million, with poprity breaking over 20 million. Back when Chen Yifa almost secured her position as the top streamer on Douyu just by covering ''Fairy Tale Town''. If she hadn''t made her own troubles, she''d undoubtedly still be the top streamer on Douyu. Now Jiang Siming had written his own song, ''Trotting Horse'', not only the original version but sang it so well. It''s hard not to be popr. When Jiang Siming returned with the guitar, there was a bit of oil at the corner of his mouth. He sneaked a piece of braised pork while grabbing the guitar... "Ready, here ites." With that, Jiang Siming started ying the melody of ''Trotting Horse'' again. The familiar tune silenced the currently most popr live stream room; everyone was too captivated to send barrage messages. "The rain outside has stopped, The lights inside are still on, Counting your indifference, ying with loneliness, After a long time, I finally raised my head to look, You were walking so slowly on the other side, Leaving me in a dilemma between dozing and reality..." After the song ended, the room flooded with virtual gifts. Emperor [Dumb Little Sister] sent 10 super rockets to [Ming]''s live stream room! Emperor [Dumb Little Sister]: So good, so good, too good, Brother Ming, yaaay~ Emperor [Little Tuantuan] sent 10 super rockets to [Ming]''s live stream room! Emperor [Little Tuantuan]: Little Brother Ming, I''m your crazy fan,~ With so many gifts pouring in, Jiang Siming couldn''t keep up and could only collectively thank everyone. "I promised to sing two songs, and I won''t break my word." The audience was thrilled. They could enjoy another round; they hadn''t tired of the song even after listening to it for two days. Unexpectedly, Jiang Siming decided not to sing ''Trotting Horse'' again. "The next song is also my original, it''s called ''A Solo in Paris.'' Hope you like it." Chapter 41: Singer Delayed By a Chicken Dinner Game The crowd was amazed! "Goodness, another new piece?" "The speed of this song is so wild!" "Ming God has written a new song again? Sing it quickly, let''s hear it! I guarantee it will trend on Weibo!" "Oh my, is there any room left for other streamers?" "A singer dyed by a chicken dinner game..." No longer paying attention to the chat, Jiang Siming adjusted the strings again, made some preparations, and his slender fingers began to pluck the strings. Apletely different melody echoed in the live broadcast room, unlike "Trotting Horse." The prelude of this song was even more beautiful. Like a chime ringing in the soul, melodious and resonant, with an elegance simr to a piano. "How to delete those photos about you How not to look at the messages of those conversations Find exclusive content at M V L Can''t let go, can''t go back Might as well make a decision ..." The warm voice lingered in the ears, every lyric making people feel a bit heartbroken. This gentle heart-wrenching feeling was more profound. However, the earlier part of the song did not have an overly stunning performance, including "Trotting Horse." But this only increased everyone''s anticipation for the chorus. "Trotting Horse" captured people''s hearts with its chorus, and they wondered if this new song could have the same charm. Just as they were thinking, the hearts of the crowd suddenly felt like they had pushed open a door and saw a stunning sea of flowers under the Shangri-La snow mountain! "How did it be going to Paris alone How to let go of memories of two people Flew over ten thousand kilometers Counting the distance between myself and you How did it be going to Paris alone Searching for the scenery we once talked about Only to realize in the end I cared too much ..." It''s every bit as good as "Trotting Horse"! The chorus is extremely pleasing! Compared to the hysteria and roaring love in "Trotting Horse," this songpletely follows a gentle line, like a dedicated gentleman gently narrating about the past with his ex-girlfriend. "How did it be going to Paris alone? Paris is where all couples dream to go. Jay Chou''s ''Confession Balloon'' MV was even recorded there. But in the lyrics of this song, it''s about being alone in Paris. That must be so lonely and painful, right?" "Darn it, my tears were tricked out again. Ming God, you''re so wicked!" "When people get older, they easily get sentimental listening to any song, sigh." "It reminds me of the time when I made ns with my girlfriend to go to Xinjiang. Unfortunately, she''s no longer here. I went to Xinjiang alonest year." "Such a musical genius, Ming God, the world won''t be just if you don''t debut!" "Quit your profession, be a singer!" Even after this song finished, the audience remained immersed in the sadness it brought them. The gift rewards this time were even more fierce. Just like when ''Trotting Horse'' was released yesterday, the fans spared no expense from their wallets. To hear such an amazing song, spending money is totally worth it. Duke [Erke] sent 15 Super Rockets to Ming''s livestream! Duke [Erke]: Ming God, your singing skills are on par with any professional singer. Also, this song is really well-written. Can you sing it again? Looking forward to it! Duke [Xiaosufei] sent 5 Cosmic Ships to Ming''s livestream! Duke [Xiaosufei]: So, so good! Ming God, can I be your little fangirl? Emperor [PDD about to get the mermaid line] sent 10 Cosmic Ships to Ming''s livestream! Emperor [PDD about to get the mermaid line]: Bro, your singing is too good! My Ming Ming has be your fan. Let''s y PUBG together sometime! Emperor [Xuxubaby] sent 10 Cosmic Ships to Ming''s livestream! Emperor [Xuxubaby]: I heard my fans rmending ''Trotting Horse'' to me today, so I came here specifically to watch. Young man, your path is broad! Do you y League? I''m the top yer on the national server, let me carry you! Major streamers flocked to Jiang Siming''s livestream like they were swarming. Spaceships, rockets, and whatnot were thrown around like they were worthless. Mainly because fans promoted each other vigorously, many streamers came to check out the room and then left. But upon entering, they found they couldn''t leave... That day, Jiang Siming''s live stream room surpassed 10 million concurrent viewers! The peak poprity even reached one billion! Compared to these poprity and concurrent viewers, what was more reliable was Jiang Siming''s live stream room level and the number of fan badges. Live room number: 99999 Live room level: Level 80 Fan badges: 90,570 The frenzied gifts pushed Jiang Siming''s live stream room to level 80, just twenty levels away from the maximum. The number of fan badges reached ny thousand. This growth rate, aside from PDD and Xuxubaby, was unmatched by anyone else! Perhaps only Lao Lu''s return to streaming could surpass Jiang Siming''s achievements. "Thank you, thank you, everyone. I will quickly turn these two songs into official versions and release them for free on major music tforms. Today''s live stream ends here. Before leaving, I''d like to perform a program for my reluctant audience." New viewers were still puzzled, waiting with curious anticipation. But when they saw Jiang Siming go offline in the next second, they allughed and scolded... After finishing the afternoon live stream, Jiang Siming came out of his bedroom. The aroma of the meal from the dining table in the living room made him hungry. "Brother Jiang, are you done? Come and eat." Wang Xinyi, who came out of the kitchen, even had an apron tied around her waist. Jiang Siming went over, embraced Wang Xinyi, rewarded her with several sweet kisses, and then sat down to eat with her. After dinner, Jiang Siming first returned calls to various professional esports teams. He expressed that he could go professional but had a few conditions. First, he didn''t want to live in the team base and didn''t want interference in personal freedom unless there were majorpetitions or training sessions. Second, the training duration shouldn''t be too long, as he needed to focus on live streaming. In exceptional cases, he would inform in advance about taking leave. Third, he could join as a professional yer, didn''t have to be the team captain, but the starting lineup had to reserve a spot for him. Many teams frowned upon these three conditions. After discussions, most of them gave up. Only 4am and Team 17 were still considering. Jiang Siming wasn''t worried about whether any team would ept his conditions. His skills spoke for themselves. At the moment, what mattered most to him was doing some adult things with Wang Xinyi... On a quiet summer night, in a certain residential area in Shanghai, in the bedroom of a two-bedroom apartment on the eighteenth floor. A scene of spring blossoms was unfolding. Jiang Siming also got a bit of satisfaction. After drying the beauty in his arms, he carried her back to the bedroom. Continuing to sleep in Wang Xinyi''s room, Jiang Siming no longer went to his own room. It hadpletely be his workspace for streaming. As soon as hey down, Wang Xinyi fell asleep drowsily. Exhausted, she needed sleep for recovery. Jiang Siming, on the other hand, was very awake. Even though he still wanted to, knowing that his girlfriend was tired, he restrained himself. Taking out the chip he obtained today and pondering for a while, he used his mind to create a game on this chip. Chapter 42: Tuantuan: Playing Cute! [Game Program Modifier]: Dreaming Journey... Modifying... Please input specific modification program... In progress... Modificationpleted! Within a few minutes, Jiang Siming''s bank card received two messages: "Your card ending in 6624 received a deposit of 3,500,000 credit at 23:11 on June 4th, with a bnce of 9,348,540.22 credit. [Industrial and Commercial Bank]" There was another message from the Industrial and Commercial Bank congratting him. They had automatically upgraded Jiang Siming''s card to a Diamond membership, providing VIP services for future transactions, including free financial products and various other benefits. Jiang Siming paid no attention and just smirked at the newly added 3.5 million. This money was really easy to make! The game "Dreaming Journey" is one of NetEase''s most profitable online games. It has been operating for over a decade and still stands strong. The profit value of top-level game ounts and equipment is extremely high. The most expensive ount even sells for nearly tens of millions in the market! Jiang Siming used a modifier to silently create a top-level ount in the game, then added a bunch of top-tier equipment and sold it in the market. Unbeknownst to anyone, in less than ten minutes, Jiang Siming made a profit of 3.5 million. If he hadn''t been cautious about arousing suspicion due to excessive modifications, Jiang Siming could have directly created an ount worth over 10 million. This modifier truly lives up to its name as a ck technology. In the future, Jiang Siming could easily make a huge fortune every half month relying on it. It''s too good to be true! Currently, Jiang Siming has over 9.4 million credit in his ount. Remembering a few days ago when he was a broke university student who couldn''t even afford rent, Jiang Siming felt emotional. After making money, the first thing Jiang Siming thought of was his family. However, he wasn''t quite ready to exin the source of the money to his parents. They wouldn''t believe he earned it just by ying games, especially since he had sent them a hundred thousand not long ago. Jiang Siming decided it would be better to wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival to exin to his parents in person; it was too hard to exin clearly over the phone. After thinking it through, Jiang Siming happily hugged Wang Xinyi and entered his dreams. Little did Jiang Siming know, his new song had touched many hearts on this lonely night. A game anchor wrote two consecutive songs, both of which were very popr. This made Jiang Siming appear for the first time on the hot search list of Weibo. "A singer-anchor dyed by games, original singer of ''Trotting Horse'' and ''Alone in Paris,(changed from Solo In Paris) '' Ming #WeiboTopic" Starting from the bottom, this Weibo topic climbed to the top ten throughout the night and by morning had reached the eighth position. The Weibo tform uploaded the audio of his two songs, which saw over 600,000 downloads overnight. Many users on Weibo were asking for the official version because the live recording had a lot of noise and a monotonous tune, causing perfectionists to be utterly distressed. Upon waking up the next day and learning about this, Jiang Siming spent half a day finding a recording studio and money to produce theplete versions of these two songs. He uploaded them to various music tforms for free without seeking copyright or any fees. This made all the music tforms thrilled because Jiang Siming saved them a lot of money by providing the songs for free. As a result, these tforms featured Jiang Siming''s songs prominently, and their download rates skyrocketed. However, Jiang Siming didn''t have time to focus on these developments. At this moment, he received a formal invitation from the 4am team! Following yesterday''s discussion, 4am decided to ept Jiang Siming''s conditions and officially invited him to join the team. In addition to meeting Jiang Siming''s conditions, Weishen, one of 4am''s shareholders, offered Jiang Siming a higher annual sry than the former team member Gusun. Five million a year, excluding tournament bonuses,petition subsidies, and more. Weishen didn''t include advertisement fees in Jiang Siming''s calction, making this treatment arguably the best within the PUBG teams, second to none! Faced with such an invitation, Jiang Siming didn''t hesitate or negotiate; he readily epted. Starting today, Jiang Siming became a member of the 4am team. As soon as he went live, Jiang Siming shared this news with his audience. "Are you really going to 4am? To rece Gusun''s position?" "Ming Gods sniping is ten times better than that white-eyed wolf Gusun!" "Yeah, wee Ming God to join 4am! Looking forward to thepetitions!" "Never mind thepetition for now; the National Strongest Anchor Competition will kick off in a couple of days. Ming God, are you participating?" "Of course, I must join! Bringing back the title of the strongest anchor means fame and fortune!" Jiang Siming had just learned about this National Strongest Anchor Competition. It''s a PUBG streaming event organized by Douyu in coboration with top-level streaming tforms such as Huya, YY, Penguin, and others. The top ten anchors not only receive substantial prizes but also gain fame in one fell swoop. Even if you''re a small-time anchor, getting into the top ten will definitely make you a focal point and gain a massive following. Last year, such an event was held, and in the final top ten, four were from Huya, two from YY, three from Qie, while Douyu had an awkward single entry in the tenth ce. At that time, professional yers were not allowed in thepetition; Douyu''s OMG and 17 couldn''t participate. But this year, several tforms have agreed; professional yers can join as long as they are also streamers. Anyway, it''s an individualpetition, so professional yers may not necessarily outshine others. This year, Douyu is determined to wipe out the shame ofst year. "I''ll participate, everyone don''t worry." Jiang Siming gave a reassuring answer, easing the audience''s concerns. As soon as he logged into the game and YY, Jiang Siming saw a message from Little Tuantuan on YY. "Little Ming, do you have time now? Take me to y games, pretty please... (crying emojis) x10." Seeing this, Jiang Siming pulled her into the YY channel. As soon as Little Tuantuan saw Jiang Siming, her grievances erupted. "Little Ming, wuwuwu..." "What happened? Who bullied you?" Jiang Siming asked, confused. "Wahh..." When Jiang Siming asked, she became even more distressed. "I yed all day today, jumped with the parachute all day, sob... ining) In thest match, I met someone. He just hid behind that box and refused toe out. He insisted that I go first, and then I made a gesture (got angry), and as soon as I did, he killed me. I spent the whole afternoon just killing one teammate, it''s so frustrating!" Tuantuan''s distress was rtable, totally rtable! She poured her grievances to Jiang Siming, but she noticed that instead of consoling her, Jiang Siming seemed to be holding back augh. "Little Ming, you''re bullying me too, wuuwuu..." Jiang Siming suppressed his smile andforted her, "It''s okay, I''ll carry you, is that fine?" "No!" "?" "I want to carry myself! I want to kill too!" "Okay, then let''s go." The two clicked to start and entered the game. Tuantuan, still in the lobby, vented her frustration by hitting the air and couldn''t stop thinking about her earlier unfortunate death. "Little Ming, let me tell you, next time if I meet such a person, I won''t move either. I''ll just watch videos since I have inte fees (proud), anyway, our home inte is not paid for outside, our electricity bill is so cheap (pouting)! I can just camp beside him all night! (angry)" Her cute yet fierce tone left Jiang Siming speechless. Chapter 43: Split Personality Tuantuan The ne took off. "I must get a kill this round; I can''t just wander around without any dignity." Maybe it was the rhythm of her live chat that made Tuantuan feel even with Jiang Siming leading, she had to show her prowess! She didn''t want everyone to see her as just someone carried by her ''boyfriend,'' even though she loved hearing that phrase. "This time, I''ll be a killer, a killer with emotions! I have a strong sense of pride, just so you all know!" Jiang Siming let her chatter away by his side like an olddy, not bothered but somewhat entertained. Choosing a rtively remote city, theynded, only to find two other teams following them. "Great! Little Ming, if I get a kill this round, can you praise me, please?" "Sure, no problem," Jiang Siming readily agreed. With Tuantuan''s confidence boosted by his affirmation, she chose a house a bit far from Jiang Siming. She was afraid he might snatch all the kills. Jiang Siming trusted in her skills and started searching on his own. However, not even half a minute passed before he heard her screaming in distress. "Wow! Little Ming,e quickly, please! I''m begging you, I''m about to die, wuwuwu, they''re right outside my house!" Jiang Siming nced over and saw that her health was already halved, indicating she''d been hit. "I''ming over now; you hold them off." "I can''t hold them off, wuwu, they''reing in!" "Then tell them, ''Bro, don''t kill me.''" "Bro, don''t kill me, please, I have a family... Ahh! Useless! They''re rushing in!" "Switch to English, bilingual broadcast." "Oh... umm... brother...brother... dont...kill...me...no...no...no..." Their back-and-forth brought explosive entertainment to the live stream, leaving the audience in stitches. Perhaps Tuantuan''s ''sonic attack'' had some effect; the opponents gave up on storming the building and opted to throw grenades instead. Jiang Siming swiftly wiped out the team as soon as he reached the scene. Tuantuan, still trembling from the ordeal, grabbed some items and stuck closely to Jiang Siming, not wandering off anywhere. "What about killing on your own?" "What about being a woman with a strong sense of pride?" "I''m a killer with emotions, and now?" "Go kill someone, Tuantuan." Faced with her live chat''s reactions, Tuantuan didn''t fall for it anymore. "I feel like if it''s a duo game, I can''t ignore Little Brother Ming and rush on my own; it''ll be very dangerous for him without anyone to protect him." Tuantuan said very "loyally," not blushing at all. Seriously, she even had time to take a sip of pearl milk tea. "Do you have any shame? Does Ming God need your protection?" "I''d be praying for others not to bump into him. What use is there for you to protect him!" "Tuantuan''s face is getting thicker and thicker." "You''re sticking to Ming God so much, aren''t you afraid that the olddy will get jealous?" Chat: Say what you want; Tuantuan ims she can''t see it, continues to drink her milk tea, being Xiao Ming ge''s follower. After drinking too much, she identally let out a loud burp in the live broadcast. Jiang Siming was about to tease her, but he found that this girl had already started self-justifying. Tuantuan: "Little sister, who told you to burp? Sister is in a live broadcast; you''re making them think that I burped." Little sister (the split personality): "I didn''t (pitifully)." Tuantuan: "Liar! Don''t admit it. Do you know this is called being dishonest? Sister usually teaches you how to behave; how can you be so disobedient?" Little sister: "Wuwu, I''m sorry, sister." Tuantuan: "Hmm, that''s more like it. Go y outside; sister has to work." Little sister: "Bye bye, sister." Tuantuan: "Alright, everyone, my little sister was naughty just now. Don''t mind, Little Brother Ming, don''t misunderstand~" Jiang Siming was stunned, didn''t expect such a y? With Tuantuan, the split personality drama queen, Jiang Siming''s journey of killing in the game became a lot more fun. In a game where Jiang Siming easily andfortably secured a chicken dinner with 26 kills, Tuantuan, with a score of 2000, was just a mere addition. Theirbined matchmaking scores dropped significantly, making it seem like Jiang Siming was fishing in a pond¡ªtoo easy. And because Jiang Siming always got the kills, Tuantuan managed to kill a whopping 6 people, leaving these two idiotsughing uncontrobly. After winning a chicken dinner, Tuantuan excitedly returned to the lobby, loudly and proudly dering to everyone, "My KDA must be soaring. Now, let me show you my KDA!" When she clicked on her own match data, Tuantuan suddenly fell silent. Curious, Jiang Siming checked Tuantuan''s data. KDA: 0.22 This KDA was truly unique; he couldn''t fathom how she managed to get it... Embarrassed, Tuantuan, unwilling to ept it, opened Jiang Siming''s match data. KDA: 22.99 Exactly a hundred times more than Tuantuan''s... The audience teased Jiang Siming, saying he could defeat a hundred Tuantuans; the data was too tragic. With KDA rising again, Jiang Siming didn''t feel much about it. He has be even stronger now. In thest chicken dinner, he received three white fragments: VSS, AWM, and MK14 mastery. The essential techniques for two airdrop snipers are now in Jiang Siming''s hands. At this point, he haspletely mastered the sniper rifle category. As they were nning to continue matchmaking, Jiang Siming suddenly received an invitation from [4am_govdzzz]. "Wanna team up? I''m soloing," the message from Weishen came. Jiang Siming directly added him to the team. "Wow, it''s been a while, Weishen," Little Tuantuan greeted. Weishen smiled and teased, "Have you be arrogant with Old Jiang? You haven''t asked me to y games with you for a long time. You used to call me every day." "Hehe, Little Brother Ming is really awesome now. I only need him to lead, that''s enough for me." "Heh, women, always fickle creatures," Weishen scoffed. "Hey hey, Weishen, if you keep teasing me like this, I might file aint and report it to Sister Bee!" "Hey hey hey, just kidding. Don''t take it seriously. Let''s get started, Old Jiang," Weishen casually skipped the topic. The three officially entered the game. Weishen ignored Tuantuan and chatted with Jiang Siming. "The PCPI national elimination matches will start next month. We need to start from the domesticpetition and at least get into the top three to qualify for the UK. If you have time this month,e for more training. We need to coordinate and practice tactics." "Yeah, if I don''t have anything important, I''lle over." Jiang Siming didn''t take it too seriously because he believed that, in the face of true strength, tactics weren''t reliable. The main purpose of tactical training was to increase the tolerance for mistakes in marksmanship. Itpensated for deficiencies and errors in marksmanship. In this FPS game, as long as your skill level far exceeds others, any tactics are just a matter of bullets. Even if the enemy surrounds you, they need to reveal their positions in a gunfight. As long as they dare to expose their positions, Jiang Siming is confident in taking them down! Chapter 44: Jiang Simings Cursing Skill "The strongest anchorpetition the day after tomorrow, will you go?" "Yeah, I will." "Then I''lle over to pick you up by car, it''s quite far, in Putuo, Shanghai." "No need, I have a car." "Alright, see you then. I want to see what this voice actor, odd hermit, singer really looks like, haha." "Hope you won''t feel inferior after seeing me." "Hah, what handsome guy haven''t I seen?" Weishen dismissed it, not taking it seriously. But the silent Tuantuan''s thoughts were spinning. So, Little Ming is participating in the offlinepetition, if I go to participate... then I can meet Little Ming! The more she thought about it, the more excited she got. Tuantuan immediately called her best friend, asking her to book two tickets to Shanghai. As the three chatted and searched, with both Jiang Siming and Weishen, the game was very rxed. Every time they encountered another team, they quickly and easily took care of them. However, each time, Jiang Siming killed three while Weishen only got one. The speed of Jiang Siming''s kills was much faster. Just as the three were having fun, an argument suddenly erupted through Weishen''s headset. "You ungrateful thing, who let you into the base? Get out!" "I haven''t terminated my contract with you, why can''t I enter?" "You shameless dog, why are you back? Sorry, we don''t need you anymore." "I will go in! I haven''t terminated the contract, I''m still part of 4AM." Weishen quickly told Jiang Siming through the headset, "Gucun hase to the base, let me handle this first, Old Jiang, you guys keep ying." "Sure, go ahead." Jiang Siming understood. However, this incident made everyone very curious. Wasn''t Gucun the one who left 4AM on his own? Why did hee back? "What''s the situation with Gucun? Can someone enlighten me?" Tuantuan, who was familiar with the inside story, exined to Jiang Siming, "Gucun''s contract was about to expire. 4AM wanted to renew the contract with him, but Gucun was dissatisfied with the renewal fee. He demanded a doubling of his treatment." "His treatment was already the best in 4AM. Doubling it would certainly be uneptable for the club, so they refused. Gucun started to act up, not only intentionally avoidingpetitions but also neglecting training and going out to y every day." "I used to think Gucun was a naive kid, but after knowing the truth, I was amazed. The club treated him really well, lifting him from nothing to a positionparable to Weishen, with treatment several times higher than that of Aruka and the others. I didn''t expect him to be unsatisfied." Tuantuanined about 4AM with some indignation, but little did she know that Gucun''s fans heard about it, maliciously fabricated the story, and informed Gucun, who was causing trouble in 4AM. Angry after learning about it, Gucun directly went to Weishen''sputer, picked up the headset, and started cursing loudly into the microphone. Weishen didn''t exit the game, so his ount was still in the YY channel. "I fing hate your mother, you b**. My affairs have nothing to do with you. You dare to talk about me? F** you." A string of vulgar words frightened Tuantuan. She only stated the facts without exaggeration, and this incident was absolutely true, without baseless spection. However, Gucun ignored everything, and even though the other party was just a girl, he continued to curse angrily. At this moment, everyone could see it. This seemingly harmless and innocent little boy from the past was not the real him at all. Being able to conceal his true self, deliberately garnering fans, showed that he was very scheming. Now that the truth had been exposed, he no longer needed to hide, revealing his true self. While Gucun used all kinds of dirty words to scold Tuantuan, she chose to remain silent, enduring the injustice. Enduring silently didn''t mean Jiang Siming would endure. "Your mouth is like a toilet when you talk. Hasn''t your mother taught you to clean the toilet? Talking while spewing s***, why are you so fashionable?" As soon as Jiang Siming spoke, the audience, who were originally angry on Tuantuan''s behalf, burst intoughter. Seeing someone dare to scold him, could Gucun, the arrogant youth, endure it? He immediately retorted! "F***, you''re that Ming, right? Trying to take my ce while I''m away, f*** you." "Look, there''s still so much s*** in the toilet. Can you please eat them all and thene back to talk? Always talking about your mother and father, why do you always bring me into it for no reason? I don''t acknowledge you as a son!" Haha! The audienceughed even more. They didn''t expect Ming God to scold people in such a hrious way. "I f*** your mother, who the hell are you? Piece of s***, f*** your mother." Full of profanity, the audience now believed what Jiang Siming had said. This guy''s mouth was truly a toilet, and an unflushed one at that. "Are you here to curse people? Let me give you something fresh!" Jiang Siming''s words became sharp, like a sharp file. "When your mother gave birth to you, she probably threw away the baby and raised the centa, otherwise, how could you look like this?" "You look like an illegal construction site, with pits and bumps on your face like the surface of the moon. You call yourself ''lonely young master,'' but you''re just a pitiful guy!" "A person is cheap for a lifetime, a pig is cheap for a stab. You''re wasting air when alive and wastingnd when dead, wasting people''s money at home!" "You''re a cute, charming, hardworking, white, small, new hybrid fish species always serving the people!" "Someone like you, if you go into acting, can only y a piece of crap in a TV drama, not evenparable to a piece of gum that a dog peed on by the roadside!" "The east is not bright, but the west is bright. You look like a moron!" A series of curses from Jiang Siming''s mouth were like a machine gun. They were not only extremely sharp but also without a hint of repetition. If someone were cursed like this, smoke woulde out of all seven orifices. The audience burst intoughter while kneeling to Jiang Siming. "Hahaha, cursing people, I only admire Ming God!" "The king of cursing, Lu Laoye, is nothingpared to Ming God!" "Look at the appearance of our Ming God getting angry for Tuantuan, so handsome!" "Small mouth smeared with honey, my big bro Ming~" "Although they''re all curse words, why do I feel more relieved listening to them!" "Tuantuan, did you see that? Ming God abandoned his idol image for you. Where else can you find such a man?" Tuantuan, who naturally heard all this, couldn''t help butugh through her tears. She was extremely moved. She vowed that if Jiang Siming confessed to her at this moment, she would definitely not hesitate to ept! Or maybe... she could confess too... Jiang Siming''s live stream poprity skyrocketed, even higher than when he sang yesterday. Viewers from Huya came over, not to mention the local viewers from Douyu. They were all attracted by this unprecedented battle of curses. The only one being infuriated quickly was Gucun. At this moment, the filthy words he wanted to retort were stuck in his throat because he felt that he was no match for Jiang Siming if he continued to curse indiscriminately. Chapter 45: Sniper Solo Showdown "Alright! I want to have a sniper solo showdown with you!" Gucun, who was on the verge of exploding, stopped cursing. It''s not that he didn''t want to curse, but he couldn''t win the curse battle... "So you, fucking, lo, do you think others should apany you just because you want to do something? Is your head filled with ancient shit, thinking like a fly with no direction?" "F*ck your horse!" Gucun waspletely furious. Ancient shit? Could he even ept such words? "Look at your level of cursing, even arguing with you makes me feel degraded. Hoeing crops in the midday sun, your mother sells her a*s, no one wants it, credit to Wang Laowu!" "I...I..." Everyone burst intoughter! The live stream room went crazy! However, Gucun, who quickly calmed down, started provoking with sarcasm, "If you don''t dare to solo, just say it. If all you know is cursing, then shut your mouth. This lonely young master doesn''t want to babble with a loser like you." Finally, the 4AM staff rushed over to rescue the situation and pulled Gucun away. It''s not that they didn''t want toe earlier; it''s just that Gucun brought two outsiders with him, blocking them from getting there in time. "Sorry, Old Jiang. Don''t mind him. I''ll kick him out right away." Weishen didn''t know exactly what had happened between the two. He only heard Gucun cursing Jiang Siming continuously andter getting extremely angry, mentioning a solo match with Jiang Siming. "Why would I mind? Why are you taking him away? I still want to curse him a bit more." Jiang Simingughed. "Did you curse him? That''s great, brother, as long as you didn''t suffer. I''ll go deal with him." "Hold on." Jiang Siming stopped him. "What''s up?" Weishen was puzzled. "Tell him, the solo can happen, but there has to be a bet." As soon as Jiang Siming spoke, the audience was both surprised and excited. Is an even more exciting drama about to unfold? "Little Brother Ming... just forget it... it''s not worth getting angry over someone like him..." Tuantuan worried about Jiang Siming. She was afraid that if Jiang Siming made a mistake and lost, Gucun would keep taunting him, and she didn''t want to see Jiang Siming suffer. "It''s okay, don''t worry about this. If he dares to curse you, I''ll make him pay." Jiang Siming responded confidently, then continued tomunicate with Weishen. Tuantuan stood still in front of theputer desk, a stream of emotion rushing into her eyes, making her eyes turn red. "What bet? Old Jiang, you''d better forget it. It''s not worth fighting over someone like him," Weishen also advised Jiang Siming not to act impulsively. However, Jiang Siming was determined. He spoke, "Tell him I''ll bet with him ¨C ten million credit and ten times calling me ''dad.'' If he dares to ept, I''m ready. If he doesn''t, then consider me not saying anything." Whoa! Weishen was shocked. A ten million credit bet? This was too intense! "Just go and deliver the message." Jiang Siming interrupted Weishen''s thoughts of further persuasion. Weishen eventually left theputer temporarily to deliver Jiang Siming''s message to Gucun. In less than two minutes, Weishen came back, saying, "He agreed, but he requests you toe to the base in person, facing each other for the sniper solo." "No problem, I''m heading there now." Jiang Siming hesitated for no moment. "Dear viewers, I''ll be off for a while to go to the base and pick up ten million." Jiang Siming smiled as he announced to the audience. This statement sounded truly domineering, as if saying that Gucun was destined to lose! "Go for it, Ming God, we believe in you!" "If you win, I''ll send a hundred thousand gifts!" "If you win, I''ll open a bottle of Earl! That''s all my pocket money for this month." "Damn, screw that Gucun. Even if Ming God loses, I''ll still give you an emperor!" "The guy upstairs, shut your crow mouth! Do you think Ming God will lose?" ... While everyone was chatting, Jiang Siming had already ended the live stream, greeted Wang Xinyi, and headed downstairs. He drove for a short time before arriving at the 4AM base. After stating his identity, 4AM''s logistics personnel led Jiang Siming into the base. Weishen saw Jiang Siming''s appearance for the first time and suddenly felt a sense of inferiority. He recalled Jiang Siming''s words from earlier, telling him not to feel inferior. Now he realized that Jiang Siming wasn''t exaggerating. "Oh my, Old Jiang, how can you be so handsome? Damn, it''s a waste not to enter the entertainment industry!" Weishen spoke these words next to hisputer. Since he didn''t turn off the live stream, his words made millions of viewers extremely curious. "Pighead, turn the camera around. Let us see!" "Is Ming God really handsome? Hurry up, let me see!" "Damn, Weishen, don''t hog it all for yourself. We want to see too!" "Show us a glimpse, and I''ll give you ten treasure maps, deal?" "Ten treasure maps!" Weishen didn''t see the chat ofments from the viewers. At the moment, he was ''captivated'' by Jiang Siming''s appearance. Tuantuan was also very curious, but considering that she would meet Jiang Siming the day after tomorrow, she wasn''t in a rush. The other members of 4AM also sighed, acknowledging that Jiang Siming''s looks were enviable. However, today''s focus wasn''t on this. Gucun, who had been waiting at the base for a long time, felt even more envious and annoyed upon seeing Jiang Siming in person. He was determined that Jiang Siming would pay a heavy price! "You mentioned the bet, so I''ll agree too. Ten million plus ten times calling you ''dad.'' But we need evidence. I had mywyer prepare the agreement before your arrival. Take a look, and if everything''s fine, sign it. It''s better to avoid any disputester." Gucun stood in front of Jiang Siming. His already small stature made him look like a dwarfpared to Jiang Siming''s height of over 1.8 meters. "Weishen, did you check it? Any issues?" Jiang Siming didn''t bother looking at the contract. "We''ve checked it. There''s no problem. It''s legally binding. However, the ten million must be paid in a lump sum. And the ount must be entrusted to us. Whoever wins gets the ount." "Then let''s get started. Hurry up; I need to get back to the live broadcast." Jiang Siming finished speaking and handed his bank card to Weishen. Both sides began setting up theirputers. Since Jiang Siming joined 4AM, the base provided him with aputer, although he had never used it before. Jiang Siming started a live stream while setting up the game. He wouldn''t miss the chance to attract viewers during such an opportunity. The live stream audience instantly surged, causing a brief server overload on Douyu. Luckily, the tech team quickly opened several morerge servers, managing to stabilize the live stream. "Old Jiang, did you forget to bring your own peripherals?" Weishen realized that Jiang Siming hadn''t brought his mouse and keyboard. Professional yers usually have their own peripherals, and these are crucial because yers get used to their feel and precision. Gucun had already set up his own keyboard and mouse. "No worries. I''ll use what you guys provided. It''s just dealing with a noob." Jiang Siming didn''t care. He slid the base-provided mouse and found it quite decent. Gucun sneered beside him. He would make Jiang Siming cry miserably soon! They set up a custom room. Both were sniper specialists on their respective teams, using the mostmon sniper rifle, the 98k. In this solo, they agreed to y seven rounds in total. The winner would be decided by the highest number of victories. The location for the solo was strictly regted, set on a in with each side having a single rock as cover. Only snipers were allowed, and they couldn''t use other weapons or throwables. This was already considered the fairest form of a solo match; the win or loss depended solely on the opponent''s skill. Chapter 46: Total Defeat The stage was set. Jiang Siming suddenly called over Weishen and whispered, "Whose red Ferrari is parked outside?" "It''s Gucun''s. Why?" Wei Shen replied. Jiang Siming chuckled and said to Gucun, "Dare to up the stakes? Let''s bet on your car parked outside." "My car''s worth three million. Can you afford it?" Gucun scoffed. "My RS7 is about the same, and I just bought it a couple of days ago. I''ll throw in an extra five hundred thousand. How about that?" Jiang Siming proposed. "Hmph, trying to bluff me by raising the stakes? Dream on! Lawyer, revise the contract!" Gucun called over hiswyer and drew up a new agreement. The new contract included the previous ten million plus each of their luxury cars. This represented everything Gucun owned. If he lost, he''d be left with nothing. And with his public image shattered, no one would buy into his gaming or live broadcasts. Yet, Gucun wasn''t worried. He had extreme confidence in his skills. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have be a pir-level yer for 4am in such a short time. With his sniper rifle in hand, he was unstoppable. Of course, Jiang Siming was no different. If he lost, he''d lose all he had amassed in a short time. But he was entirely unconcerned; he could earn it all back quickly. With the revised contract in ce, the bet was on! This solo match had attracted countless spectators. Jiang Siming''s live stream had an unprecedented audience of over eleven million viewers! His poprity reached a staggering 210 million! Numerous wealthy individuals joined, including someone named "Traveling Frog Brother," a high-profile user. This user had recentlye over from the League of Legend team''s move to the Douyu tform. Although their level was below one hundred, they still attracted arge audience because their owner was the head of the League of Legend team! "A solo match worth over ten million, interesting. If the streamer wins, I''ll send three million in gifts!" Traveling Frog Brother suddenly sent this message in the live chat, igniting the audience''s enthusiasm. No one doubted the authenticity of their words. However, Jiang Siming hadn''t seen it. At this moment, he and Gucun had already entered the game andnded in their respective spots. Both of them had only one Kar98k and just a level-one helmet. One shot to the head meant instant death. Their solo match officially began! Gucun poked his head out first and fired a bold sniper shot toward a rock, clearly taunting. But Jiang Siming didn''t budge; he didn''t show himself. Gucun fired another shot, but Jiang Siming remained hidden. "You coward, if you don''t dare to fight me, why y a solo match?" Gucun boasted, convinced that Jiang Siming wouldn''t dare to engage in a gunfight with him. He once again popped up, firing another shot in Jiang Siming''s direction. Unexpectedly, Jiang Siming suddenly emerged from beside the rock, fired a shot in a split second, then quickly ducked back. Fans familiar with Jiang Siming''s live streams recognized this move¡ªit was his signature technique, the Insta-scope! Bullets flew towards Gucun, and he sensed impending danger. He attempted to dodge, but it was toote. The bullet hit him square in the head, instantly shattering the level-one helmet, and he copsed with a resounding thud! "That was too fast!" Viewers widened their eyes. While Jiang Siming''s sniping was known to be quick, Gucun was a renowned sniper in the PUBG world. Before Jiang Siming entered the scene, Gucun even held the title of China''s top sniper. However, even such a top-tier sniper couldn''t escape Jiang Siming''s single shot. Gucun felt a bit bewildered; he had been carefree outside and never watched Jiang Siming''s live broadcasts. He only knew that this person was a decent sniper, recing him in the team and nothing more. But now, it seemed Jiang Siming was more than just a decent sniper. Nevertheless, Gucun wasn''t worried. He thought he had just been careless earlier, and he wouldn''t make the same mistake again. They restarted the game for the second round. This time, Gucun yed cautiously, not daring to be as provocative as in the previous match. He stayed behind a rock, patiently waiting for an opportunity. Viewers mocked him; wasn''t he quite cocky before? Why wasn''t he showing his face now? Now, it was Jiang Siming''s turn to be cocky. He aimed his shots at Gucun''s hiding spot. Gucun felt like his face was being pped repeatedly. After firing four shots, Jiang Siming''s Kar98k had only one bullet left. Unable to bear it any longer, Gucun exposed his head to see the oue. However, as soon as he showed himself, he took Jiang Siming''sst bullet with his level-one helmet. Dead again! Gucun''s face turned grim, looking extremely displeased. He now felt the pressure, realizing that his opponent''s sniping skills far surpassed his own. He didn''t even have a chance to aim down the sight. "I need to check hisputer!" Gucun stood up and walked towards Jiang Siming. Jiang Siming took his hands off the mouse and keyboard, reclining in his chair leisurely, letting Gucun inspect his equipment. "If you can''t win, just surrender. Why bother with all this nonsense?" Weishen mocked. "Some people can''t handle defeat. Can you find anything?" Jiang Siming replied. "It''s amusing to see someone so ipetent in rage. You used to be our teammate; it feels embarrassing!" Weishen ridiculed. Other 4am team members also sided with Jiang Siming. Gucun inspected everything, found no issues, and reluctantly returned to his seat. At this point, he was sweating profusely, feeling the increasing pressure. The third round began immediately. Bang! Despite his increased caution, Gucun couldn''t escape Jiang Siming''s deadly shot. Jiang Siming, who has won three games already, is not far from victory, and the live broadcast room is full of excitement. The fourth game begins. However, Gucun no longer dares to show himself. Even though Jiang Siming has fired two rounds of bullets, he chooses to stay hidden and note out like a turtle. "What''s the matter? Why aren''t youing out? Is this how you y solo?" Weishen impatiently asks. Gucun retorts, "Is it mandatory toe out?" "You''re really a pain!" Weishen curses angrily. But Gucun still refuses toe out; he wants to dy as long as possible. "Noting out, huh?" Jiang Siming smiles, no longer provoking with gunfire. He simply holds his sniper rifle and runs towards Gucun. If you won''te out, then I''lle over and beat you up! Gucun sees Jiang Siming unable to resist running over, feeling delighted. He wants to make Jiang Siming unable to resisting over, so he can engage with him and surely win! While Jiang Siming is running, Gucun bravely sticks his head out, fires a shot, and immediately retreats. But Jiang Siming seems to know his trick entirely; going straight, he suddenly turns and easily evades Gucun''s shot. Feeling unwilling to give up, Gucun shows himself again and takes another shot. But once again, Jiang Siming sidesteps his movement! Seeing Jiang Siming getting closer, Gucun starts to panic, aims, and shoots, but Jiang Siming casually shoulder-shoots him, exploding his head. The match ends! 4-0! Weishen and others excitedly cheer, rushing to Jiang Siming, patting him on the shoulder. "Old Jiang, you''re really amazing!" "I''m amazed, I''m amazed, so strong!" "From now on, you''re my big brother, here are my knees!" Not just them, Jiang Siming''s live broadcast room is also celebrating like it''s New Year''s. Numerous wealthy viewers are crazily sending gifts; it''s so satisfying! Equally, they are truly impressed by Jiang Siming''s skills, beating professional yer Gucun, rendering him unable to even retaliate, this level of strength is truly impressive! Chapter 47: Level Skyrocketed Jiang Siming''s live stream level skyrocketed from level 80 directly to level 90! During this period, he received at least six million gifts, including three million from "Traveling Frog Brother." Jiang Siming shed a triumphant smile, having earned a considerable fortune this time. With the agreement in effect, Jiang Siming''s ount gained an extra ten million credit, and he even received a red Ferrari worth three million. Gucun sat paralyzed in his chair, his face filled with defeat and despair. From this moment on, everything he gained from yerUnknown''s Battlegrounds and 4am was wiped away. Heaven and hell, all within these few minutes. "What are you pretending to be dead for? You still owe me ten ''Dad''s." Jiang Siming didn''t let Gucun off, walked over, and demanded repayment. Gucun clenched his teeth, smashed the keyboard, and walked out of the base on his own, with the two "henchmen" he brought also leaving surreptitiously. Jiang Siming didn''t care about Gucun''s debt; he had anticipated it long ago. Winning thirteen million, those ten "Dad''s" didn''t matter to him, and he had no intention of dealing with this silly son. "I don''t want to drive that Ferrari outside, it''s been driven by dirty people, too stinky. Help me put it on the second-hand market for a low price." Jiang Siming said, with killing intent in his eyes. Weishen nodded with a smile, "Sure, I''ll give you the money after selling it." "Okay, then I''ll leave now. I earned over ten million in one trip, really good." After speaking, Jiang Siming closed the livestream and went back. Because of today''s solo match, Jiang Siming became famous in the yerUnknown''s Battlegroundsmunity. yers and professional teams all knew that 4am had added a super powerhouse, a sniper god who couldpletely crush Gucun! The teams that wanted to recruit Jiang Siming were all regretting it. If they had known he was so strong, they would have agreed to any demands he made! The happiest one was 4am. With the addition of such a powerful sniper god, their confidence inpeting in PCPI would greatly increase. Back home, Jiang Siming opened the livestream again. There were still over eight million people waiting online. "Congrattions, a battle to fame!" "Ming God, your operations are so satisfying, you''ve silenced that yer who doesn''t dare to talk nonsense." "I dere Ming God as the world''s number one sniper. Any objections?" "The global title is not confirmed yet, but he is definitely the number one sniper in the country!" "Before you came back, the livestream level had already risen to level 91. Are you happy?" "The principal alone sent over three million gifts, so wealthy." "Watching the chat ofments, Jiang Siming smiled and said to everyone, ''Thank you all for your generous gifts. Thanks also to Little Tuantuan for sending over five hundred thousand gifts, Duke [Forget River Schr] for over a hundred thousand gifts, and... Lastly, a big thank you to the big spender Principal Wang for sending over three million in gifts. Thank you all! I''ll go buy a lottery ticketter. Today''s luck is really good, meeting so many generous people, and there''s even someone silly enough to send me over ten million.''" "Hahaha..." The audienceughed, teasingly remarking, "Ming God, you''re too mischievous, not forgetting to poke fun at Young Master Gucun as well." "We won''t be ying PUBG today. I''ll be ending the stream in a while. Let''s go visit some rooms. From yesterday till today, many streamers have been gifting me, so I should reciprocate." Mutual gifting among streamers is also a part of social interaction. Since Jiang Siming received many gifts from other streamers yesterday, he also wanted to reciprocate. Splurging two million on fish fins in one go, Jiang Siming began hopping between various live streams. First, he visited Tuantuan''s stream and generously sent over 200 super hot items, then went to Dumb Little Sister''s stream and triggered an emperor-level gift. Dumb Little Sister went back to her hometown today and hasn''t been streaming, missing out on a lot of fun, so Jiang Siming got her an emperor-level gift. Afterward, Jiang Siming moved through other streamers'' rooms¡ªPDD, Xuxu Baby, and IG team members¡ªgifting each of them no less than twenty thousand. Even Little Sophie and Erke received gifts from Jiang Siming. The streamers joyfully thanked and congratted Jiang Siming for his victorious day. Even someone as formidable as Erke, a big-time streamer, noticed that when Jiang Siming visited their stream, the viewership surged. The online viewers, initially less than a million, instantly soared to two or three million. This increase in viewership is quite remarkable. There was also a realization that Jiang Siming''s growth on Douyu has been incredibly rapid, almost unbelievably so. In just a few days, he has be Douyu''s most trending and popr streamer. His online viewership has reached the top, surpassing both Xuxu Baby and the mighty PDD. The only noticeable difference lies in the quantity of gifts and fan badges; otherwise, he''s overshadowing the two veteran top streamers. Terrifying! Many viewers have already noticed that Jiang Siming bing the number one on Douyu is only a matter of time! He''s too versatile¡ªexceptional skills, pleasant voice, humor, and evenposing songs by himself. How can anyone not love watching his live streams? After gifting two million, Jiang Siming fulfilled the audience''s requests and sang "Trotting Horse" and "Alone in Paris" before ending the stream. Checked the stream data. Level: 91 Fan Badges: 180,005 Peak Online Viewers: 13,854,000 Peak Viewership: 320,000,000 Today''s Gift Value: 6,441,245 fish fins Today''s Streamer Ranking: 1st This data left Jiang Siming very satisfied. It seems the saying about big streamers making money fast holds true. Jiang Siming has already resigned from his job as apanionship yer, despite having the highest rates in that field. But Jiang Siming no longer has time to work as apanionship yer. He took on thepanionship yer role solely for the purpose of earning money, and now with a better career option avable, Jiang Siming naturally chooses the superior option. However, Bixin still keeps Jiang Siming''s profile there. Although it indicates that he is temporarily not taking orders, Bixin still wants to ride on Jiang Siming''s poprity. They also express that as long as Jiang Siming is willing, Bixin is ready to open the doors for him at any time. Jiang Siming does not oppose Bixin''s attempt to capitalize on his poprity and epts it generously. This is Jiang Siming''s gratitude for his first gaming job and his way of giving back to the Bixin tform. He believes that when one receives kindness, it is crucial to always remember it. Closing hisputer, Jiang Siming''s phone suddenly rings. Opening it, he sees a message from a somewhat familiar name. "Do you have some free time, handsome?" This person is named "Jiang Lan." Jiang Siming recalls that this is the woman who kissed him a few days ago at the music academy. "Not free for the heart, but might be for the kidneys." The other person hesitates for a while before replying again. Surprisingly, this time it''s a location shared through a message: "You might consider the kidneys, but do you have the courage toe?" The message includes a selfie of the girl, teasingly posing. With delicate features and fashionable, seductive attire, she still manages to evoke the most primitive impulses in men. The background of the photo seems to be a bonfire barbecue party, with quite a few other young men and women visible around. Being looked down upon by a woman for the first time, Jiang Siming expresses his inability to tolerate it. Chapter 48: Enter With Imposing Presence! Coming out of his room, Jiang Siming noticed that Wang Xinyi was about to sleep. "Xinyi, I need to go out again," Jiang Siming sounded a bit uneasy. He admitted to himself that he wasn''t the kind of person tomit. His fondness for Wang Xinyi was more about her gentle, kind, and innocent nature. Although they had established a rtionship, while he could genuinely treat Wang Xinyi well, he couldn''t entirely devote himself to her. Moreover, Wang Xinyi alone couldn''t satisfy his needs as a man. Every time they got intimate, Wang Xinyi seemed fatigued, leaving him feeling frustrated. He couldn''t just force her against her will, potentially risking her health or even her life. "Okay, take care," Wang Xinyi hugged Jiang Siming before he left. While getting into the car, Jiang Siming unexpectedly found three condoms in his pocket, which he hadn''t ced there. The only possibility was that Wang Xinyi secretly put them there. In fact, Wang Xinyi had known for a while that Jiang Siming couldn''t belong to her alone, especially considering his prowess, akin to a male star, in the bedroom. She realized that although Jiang Siming liked her, it wasn''t love; they had only been together for less than a week. Rather than forcibly clinging to him, which might eventually hurt both of them and even push away the person she cared about, she decided to let him be. As long as she held a ce in his heart, that was enough for her. Furthermore, she secretly hoped there would be other girls who could bear the burden for her. The thought made her legs tremble involuntarily. Jiang Lan sent Jiang Siming the location at the Fisherman''s Wharf in Fengxian, Shanghai. By the time he arrived, it was one in the morning, yet the beach was still bustling with activity. Numerous young men and women gathered here, enjoying food, drink, and fun in groups; it was a paradise for nighttime activities. A huge bonfire lit up the entire beach. A group of young people were barbecuing while chatting, and several couples were even dancing around the bonfire. Among them, a beautiful girl sat by the fire, constantly looking down at her phone, seemingly waiting for a reply. Next to her sat a boy who bore some resemnce to Zheng Kai, continuously trying to please her with a lovesick expression that was obvious to bystanders. However, the girl wasn''t impressed by his efforts and merely responded politely. "Little Lan, you should know my intentions. Although my family isn''t exceptionally wealthy, they have agreed to give me money to buy a car in a few days. Mainly because they don''t want me to stand out too much at school. They''ve only promised around five hundred thousand." "What brand of car do you like? Just tell me, and I''ll buy that brand. I''ll pick you up from school every day and take you out. Or if you want, I''ll give you the keys." The other boys and girls present immediately started ttering him. "Wow, fifty thousand! Zhang''s a rich kid." "Then it has to be a BMW or Mercedes, maybe even a Jaguar." "Zhang wants a new car; I need to experience it sometime." "Cadic is also good." Hearing everyone''s suggestions, Zhang modestly waved his hand, "Let''s ask Little Lan what car she likes; I''ll buy whichever she prefers." Other girls were both envious and jealous. Zhang Wei was wealthy himself, quite handsome, and willing to spend money on girls. Why couldn''t they meet a man like that? But Jiang Lan remained silent, still looking at her phone. Suddenly, her phone, which had been silent all this time, rang. Jiang Lan showed a surprised expression, quickly stood up, and looked around. "What''s wrong, Little Lan?" Zhang Wei asked in confusion. "You guys go ahead and have fun. A friend of mine ising to see me. I''ll go pick him up," Jiang Lan said, running toward the beach. "Be safe, I''ll apany you," Zhang Wei followed closely behind Jiang Lan, being a ''gentleman''. Jiang Lan wanted to refuse, but Zhang Wei''s attitude was firm, so she had no choice but to let him follow. The other friends were also curious and followed. Sote at night, Jiang Lan still had a friending over? Was it a guy or a girl? They reached the parking lot, and Jiang Siming''s car drove up. "Wow! An RS7! A sports car worth over two million!" eximed a knowledgeable guy among them. They were just students, and the wealthiest among them was Zhang Wei, whose family had assets worth tens of millions. Seeing a car worth over two million, especially one that looked so good, was a rare sight. However, Zhang Wei''s attention wasn''t on the car at all. Regardless of how expensive it was, it didn''t concern him. He was more eager to know if Jiang Lan''s friend posed any threat. What surprised them was Jiang Lan''s obvious happiness upon seeing the RS7; she even waved to the driver. The owner of the RS7 noticed her, honked in response, and found a parking spot. Zhang Wei had an ominous feeling. As everyone''s gaze shifted, a young man not much older than them stepped out of the car and walked slowly towards them. As soon as this man appeared, he captivated the attention of all the girls present. "He''s so handsome!" "Wow, how can this guy be so good-looking!" "Could this be Jiang Lan''s friend?" "I wonder why Jiang Lan never agreed to Zhang Wei''s pursuit. Turns out, she already has someone in her heart." "Shut your mouth! Can''t you see Zhang Wei is about to explode?" Indeed, Zhang Wei''s expression changed several times, but he held it in, barely. "Little Lan, is this your friend?" Zhang Wei forced a smile. Ignoring him, Jiang Lan ran towards Jiang Siming alone and resolutely threw herself into his arms. Zhang Wei witnessed this scene and nearly exploded with anger. He had pursued the goddess for almost half a year, treated her with the utmost care and tenderness, yet he hadn''t even touched her hand. And here she was, showing up and willingly throwing herself into Jiang Siming''s embrace. It was something no man could ept. He had assumed Jiang Siming would be ecstatic about it, but to their surprise, his expression wasn''t as joyful as expected. Instead, it seemed a bit aloof, and he wasmunicating with Jiang Lan in a way they couldn''t hear due to the distance. "Are you asking me to be your scapegoat? If that''s the case, please let go. I''m not that foolish," Jiang Siming''s words made Jiang Lan panic for a moment. She quickly exined, "You misunderstood. I absolutely didn''t mean that. He''s just my schoolmate who''s been pursuing me. I wanted to see you today. There''s absolutely nothing else. If you''re still angry, I can leave with you right now, and you don''t have to say a word to them." Jiang Lan''s first favorable impression was of Jiang Siming, and she was afraid that he would be angry and misunderstand her because of this situation. After a moment of silence, Jiang Siming said, "Remember what you promised me today, to ''explore the city'' with me." Jiang Lan''s face turned bright red instantly, and she softly murmured an agreement. This made Jiang Siming smile again. He took the initiative to pull her closer and walked towards the group of young men and women. "Hello, I''m Jiang Siming, Jiang Lan''s boyfriend." It was a deration of authority, without any courtesy, dominating and direct, just like when Jiang Lan and Jiang Siming had first met, straightforward and unambiguous. Chapter 49: Fishermans Wharf Zhang Weiqing blushed, feeling the intimidating pressure from the other party but still retorted, "Just because you say so? I''ve never heard that Jiang Lan has a boyfriend like you." Upon hearing Zhang Wei''s words, Jiang Siming released Jiang Lan and walked step by step to Zhang Wei. At just around 1.7 meters, Zhang Wei was a whole head shorter than Jiang Siming. Jiang Siming fixed his sharp gaze on him, exuding a powerful aura. "When did I be her boyfriend? Do I need you to manage that? Even if it''s my first time meeting her, if I say she''s my girlfriend, then she is. What can you do about it?" Such an unreasonable and overbearing response left Zhang Wei momentarily speechless. Following that, Jiang Siming turned to the others with a smile and said, "You''re all Jiang Lan''s friends, right? Thank you for taking her out to y." After saying this, without waiting for any pleasantries from these people, Jiang Siming turned back to Jiang Lan behind him and said, "From now on, stay at the school at night, except for me, no one can call you out, do you understand?" With Jiang Lan''s face turning red, what did he mean by no one could call her out except for him? What did he want when he called her out at night? Although Jiang Siming''s words were somewhat overbearing, she obediently nodded, resembling apliant and obedient little girl. Jiang Lan''s friends were shocked. When did their usually independent school flower be so obedient to a man? "Alright, let''s have fun today. There won''t be another chance like this. Lead the way." After Jiang Siming finished speaking, he reached out to Jiang Lan, and she obediently came over, linking her arm with Jiang Siming''s and leading him to the beach. Leaving behind a group of astonished ssmates. "Zhang, what''s going on?" one of Zhang Wei''s close friends asked, feeling displeased. At that moment, Zhang Wei felt like he was wearing a huge green hat. "Let him boast for a while. We''ll find a chance to deal with himter!" Naturally unwilling to ept the loss of the woman he loved, Zhang Wei took the lead, and the other ssmates followed suit. The beach bonfire seemed to burn even brighter with Jiang Siming, the ''enemy,'' arriving. Everyone returned to their original ces. Only the spot next to Jiang Lan had already been taken by Jiang Siming. Zhang Wei, feeling aggrieved, didn''t want to give up. He nned to sit on the other side of Jiang Lan. "I don''t like other men getting too close to my girlfriend, or else I''ll take it as a challenge." Jiang Siming, without any courtesy, interrupted Zhang Wei, who was approaching, bluntly. While some ssmates were displeased with Jiang Siming, Jiang Lan felt an overwhelming sense of security and happiness. Zhang Wei ultimately didn''t go over but instead sat in a spot slightly further away from Jiang Lan. "Do you oftene out to y at night?" Jiang Siming didn''t pay attention to Zhang Wei and talked to Jiang Lan. Jiang Lan repeatedly shook her head, saying, "Today is a ss gathering. Look over there; they are all our fourth-year music department students and teachers. I rarelye out usually, and if I do, I''m always with my roommates. If... you don''t like it, I won''te out at night anymore." Jiang Siming didn''t easily believe what others said and continued to ask, "So, are you trying to hook a fish or asking me to support you?" Jiang Lan, feeling annoyed, red at Jiang Siming and said, "Am I that kind of woman in your eyes?" "Hmm?" Jiang Siming shrugged, neither admitting nor denying. Jiang Lan looked somewhat dejected but earnestly told Jiang Siming, "I have feelings for you, it''s love at first sight, with no ulterior motive." "I know you don''t believe it now, but I''ll prove it with time." After saying that, Jiang Lan ignored Jiang Siming and busied herself with the food on the barbecue grill, giving the impression that the two were having a disagreement. Zhang Wei, who had been watching, was delighted, thinking Jiang Lan and Jiang Siming were quarreling. However, after a while, Jiang Lan lifted her head again, regained her radiant smile, and handed Jiang Siming the chicken wings she had grilled with her own hands. That tenderness might have melted any other man''s heart. But Jiang Siming, without any courtesy, epted the chicken wings and started nibbling without even saying thank you, as if everything was just a matter of course to him. Zhang Wei admitted he was insanely jealous! No, he had to reim his position and make this arrogant man lose face! "Your school has quite a few beauties." While eating the barbecue Jiang Lan had made, he also had time to look around for other beautiful girls. Jiang Lan, feeling aggrieved, pursed her lips, her cheeks flushed with a charm that made one''s mouth water, as if one wanted to take a bite. "Am I not pretty enough?" "Pretty? I took a nce, congrattions, it seems like you are the most beautiful among these girls," Jiang Siming stated matter-of-factly. Jiang Lan was pleased to hear that. As the school''s flower, she had received countlesspliments on her looks from boys, but none made her as happy as Jiang Siming''s words. "Roast me another chicken wing. They''re quite tasty." "Sure! Coming right up." The beach gathering was in full swing, but Jiang Siming wasn''t in the mood to stay much longer. Instead of staying with a group of strangers, it was better to take Jiang Lan away to a hotel and have a more ''intimate'' conversation. As he was about to leave, Zhang Wei suddenly stood up and walked to a ce where everyone could see, loudly dering, "Fellow students, I''ve noticed everyone is here for their own enjoyment, which isn''t ideal. I suggest each of us performs either by singing or ying an instrument." "Coincidentally, our academy''s three most authoritative music teachers are here today. Let them judge and select the top three students who perform the best." "I''ll personally sponsor this event, giving each of them a gift worth up to 30,000 credit as long as they request it. How about that?" As soon as Zhang Wei finished speaking, almost all the students shouted in agreement. Students from the music academy were highly enthusiastic about performing and being on stage, much like students from the film academy; this was their forte, their passion. Moreover, with such expensive gifts to offer, everyone naturally agreed. The three teachers were also willing to be judges. Thus, the impromptu beach musicpetition began. The teachers gathered all the students into a circle. In the center of the circle were many instruments, all brought by the students themselves. In the very center stood a microphone stand borrowed from the shop owner. Jiang Siming couldn''t easily leave now; all eyes were on him. He didn''t mind much, but the main concern was that it wouldn''t be convenient for Jiang Lan to leave. It wouldn''t be considerate to leave her alone. He decided to stay until the end of this inexplicable musicpetition and then leave immediately. Chapter 50: Folk Song Astonishing Everyone! Thepetition started quickly. One after another, students went up to showcase their talents, singing love songs, beautiful melodies, and ying various instruments. Zhang Wei also stepped up and affectionately sang a love song. What annoyed Jiang Siming the most was that he was singing his own song, "Trotting Horse." Though it was far from his level, it was beingpared to him. Compared to other students at the academy, he was still quite good. Finally, it was Jiang Lan''s turn. To Jiang Siming''s surprise, this stylish and graceful girl''s talent was ying the Chinese zither. She yed exceptionally well, earning unanimous apuse from ssmates and teachers. After all the students performed, the teachers were preparing to select the top three. However, Zhang Wei stood up, eyes fixed on Jiang Siming, and said with a smile, "We still have one person who hasn''t performed. Friend, please?" Jiang Siming remained unmoved, even looking at him mockingly with one leg crossed over the other. He understood now¡ªZhang Wei was setting him up. "He''s my boyfriend, not a music student," Jiang Lan stood up in his defense. Zhang Wei smiled awkwardly and said reasonably, "Exactly because he''s your boyfriend, he''s also considered half a member of the music academy. Since he''s here, we should go with the flow. We aren''t pressuring him, it''s all for fun, right? No matter how he sings, it doesn''t matter, does it, everyone?" "Yes, he dared to win our school''s beauty. Shouldn''t he have the courage to sing on stage?" "Zhang is right, we''re all here to have fun, let''s not make itplicated." "Just a song, nothing more. The teachers are watching, don''t worry." Many students echoed and supported Zhang Wei''s words, partly because of their good rtionship with him and partly due to some boys'' jealousy toward Jiang Siming for getting the most beautiful girl. They didn''t mind throwing stones at him while he was down. Jiang Lan was momentarily speechless, unsure of what to say. Unexpectedly, Jiang Siming stepped out from behind her, striding toward the center of the beach. Originally not nning to join the fight, but being swarmed made it impossible not to engage. He had to face it; if he didn''t act, they would see him as afraid. Among various instruments, he picked up a guitar, quickly tuned it, and stood by the microphone. "This guy can y the guitar too?" Zhang Wei raised an eyebrow, feeling something indescribable. Only a few of them had seen Jiang Siming perform before, but now he was standing in the middle of the entire crowd. The entire grade of students had their eyes fixed on Jiang Siming. This time, the girls really went all out, collectively screaming, blushing, and heartbeats racing. They even spontaneously cheered for Jiang Siming, bing an impromptu support group. "Let this guy be arrogant for a while. Once he starts singing, there''ll be moments when he''ll beughed at!" Zhang Wei thought to himself. He didn''t really believe Jiang Siming would sing well, even if it might sound good to ordinary people. But to them, students and teachers from the music academy, it might not sound that way at all. It was like showing off in front of Guan Yu, or wielding a weapon in front of Lu Bu. At that time, it''d be easy to mock him and make Jiang Siming embarrassed! Even if it wouldn''t cause any substantial harm, being mocked and humiliated by so many people would be a big blow. Suddenly, The sound of the guitar echoed on the silent beach. Unlike the previous guitar yers who showcased their skills with high-difficulty guitar scores, making loud noises and bustling about, Jiang Siming''s ying was different. His guitar yed like a small boat silently passing through the night, only the sound of paddles and clear water. Many music students tried to recall this score, but couldn''t find it; it seemed unfamiliar, as if they''d never heard it before. "There''s a vige in the north Where lives a girl from the south She always wears a flowery skirt Standing by the roadside ...." Jiang Siming''s voice suddenly sang, a simple folk style invading everyone''s ears in the room. His deep and deliberately hoarse singing made people think this young man in front of them had experienced many storms. From his singing, one couldn''t help but want to explore his story. "In the southern town The rainy winter isn''t as cold as the north She doesn''t need bulky winter clothes To cover her watery face ..." The atmosphere was particrly quiet, only Jiang Siming''s singing and the background music of the waves hitting the beach. The three teachers were racking their brains, seemingly trying hard to recall where this song came from. "Have you heard this song?" "No, could it be his originalposition?" "If so, he''s truly talented, excellent singing skills. Could he be from the music academy in Kyoto?" The three teachers whispered to each other, but after a while of discussing, they couldn''t figure it out. So, they continued listening to Jiang Siming''s performance. "Southern girl Have you grown ustomed to the autumn chill of the north? Southern girl Do you like the straightforwardness of northern people? ..." As the chorus began, all the students on the beach couldn''t help but fall in love with this song. Most of the students from the music academy actually didn''t like popr songs; they preferred niche folk songs. Jiang Lan stood opposite, quietly listening to the song like everyone else. However, as she looked at the man in front of her, her eyes revealed a kind of admiration typical of a young girl, clearly visible without words. Until the end of the song, while everyone was still savoring it, Jiang Siming had already put down the guitar and returned to Jiang Lan''s side. "Young man, which music academy did you graduate from? What year were you in?" A teacher hurried over, asking kindly. "I didn''t attend any music academy; just sang for fun," Jiang Siming took out a cigarette, lit it, and nonchntly smoked in front of the teacher. The look with squinted eyes while holding the cigarette fascinated arge group of female students. Some people, even if they looked handsome, didn''t have a good-looking way of smoking. Smoking seemed to be an innate talent that required a particr skill. You needed to establish a master-prop rtionship with the cigarette. The cigarette was a prop that adorned your temperament, not a silly action of just smoking away like a chain smoker. The difference between the two was like heaven and earth. For details, you could refer to the looks and temperament of Leslie Cheung and Takeshi Kaneshiro when smoking. Jiang Siming didn''t lose to them in any way. The teacher didn''t mind at all; instead, heughed with surprise. "Young man, your musical talent is very strong. The song you just sang was a folk song, right? Did you write it yourself?" "Just wrote it randomly," Jiang Siming replied half-heartedly. "Do you have any interest in joining our music academy? I can assure you, with your musical talent and my help in finding a musicpany to package you, you can be a somewhat famous folk singer in the next few years." "No interest, gotta go." Jiang Siming took Jiang Lan''s hand, turned around, and left. "Hey young man, you are the first ce; there''s a gift for you!" "I don''t care about those things." Having said that, Jiang Siming had already taken Jiang Lan into the car. As the engine roared, the car disappeared from everyone''s sight. "What a pity, what a pity for such a good talent." The teacher was stillmenting... Chapter 51: Most Powerful Anchor Competition That night, Jiang Lan couldn''t remember how many times she had reached climax. After it all ended, she drank tworge bottles of water, resembling someone who had just walked out of a desert, her whole body feeling almost dehydrated. After quenching her thirst, Jiang Lan continued to lie down on the bed,pletely drained, and fell asleep with her head turned. The next morning, Jiang Siming''s car arrived once again at the entrance of the Music Academy. Jiang Lan got out of the car, waved to Jiang Siming, and then walked into the campus gracefully. However, her walking movements were quite awkward, like someone who had twisted their ankle, limping along. Jiang Siming, liberated in both body and mind, returned home. Wang Xinyi had just woken up. Seeing him return, Wang Xinyi didn''t mention anything about Jiang Siming''s whereaboutsst night, continuing to act as if nothing had happened. "Are you really not bothered?" Jiang Siming couldn''t help but ask. "Actually, I do mind, but when I think about it, if I tie you to my side and can''t satisfy you, wouldn''t it be self-inflicted suffering? In that case, I''d rather let you ''cheat,'' and I can reduce some pressure." Wang Xinyi continued, "But there''s one thing we must make clear. Don''t touch those dubious women; otherwise, I won''t forgive you." Saying this, Wang Xinyi pouted, waving her small fist in front of Jiang Siming to assert her authority. The next day. The superrge esports arena established by Shanghai Putuo Tengxuan was overcrowded today. This newly-built esports arena, located in the prime area of Putuo District, was not open to the public and was only used for PUBGpetitions. One couldn''t help but marvel at the powerful market for esports nowadays and Tengxuan''s financial strength. This prime location was exclusively used for hostingpetitions, simr to buying a vi and only using it for ying mahjong with friends. At this moment, inside the Tengxuan Esports Arena, vibrant lights illuminated the surroundings. Unlike the League of Legendspetition venue, which only needed tenputers for a small area to host an exciting match, PUBGpetitions were entirely different. They required hundreds ofputers to support the matches. Because it was a solopetition and to prevent screen peeking, theseputers were spaced about half a meter apart from each other. This filled the entire esports arena, and there were no seats for spectators because there simply wasn''t enough space. Only the peripheral area had seats for referees,mentators, and many cameramen capturing the action. These cameramen came from various major streaming tforms. They aimed to transmit firsthand information to their tforms'' live broadcasting rooms. Whoever could capture the most popr yers would naturally have the highest poprity on their streaming tform. This time, the Most Powerful Anchor Competition was more grandiose than the previous year. Because this year, many professional yers would participate, increasing the excitement and technical level. Two hours before the official start of thepetition, the lights in the arena were shining brightly. Quite a few participants had already taken their designatedputer desks and begun familiarizing themselves with the feel of solo queues. Some known anchor yers were chatting and joking with each other. The cameramen were constantly shuttling between them, mostly focusing on small streamers. However, a few prominent anchors had arrived, attracting the attention of many cameramen. Among them were DaSimayi from Douyu, LaFengLong from Huya, and bby from Penguin. They sat in front of theirputers, naturally drawing the attention of the cameramen. Even though DaSimayi was primarily an anchor for League of Legends, it didn''t hinder his participation in thepetition. Everyone knew that apart from streaming League of Legends, DaSimayi loved ying PUBG. However, let''s not talk about his skill; no one has surpassed his retirement speed until now! "The next to arrive are members of the 4AM team!" Thementators were already at work. Since the matches hadn''t started yet, they acted as presenters, introducing the information and names of each participant entering thepetition. Huya''s cameramen were pleasantly surprised to hear this and rushed towards the entrance to shoot. Coming from outside was a group of four men, but the leader was quite familiar - none other than the top PUBG yer on Huya, Weishen. Alongside him were Aluka, Xiao Xingmu, and Yongyuan. Because of Weishen''s arrival, the viewership on Huya''s streaming tform surged immediately, attracting many from Douyu''s tform. "Weishen is here? What about Ming God?" "Where''s my husband? Didn''t hee with Weishen?" "Why hasn''t Ming God shown up yet? I''m waiting to see him!" "It seems like Ming God didn''te with 4AM." "Ah, forget it. Let''s go back to Douyu and wait to see Ming God." The audienceing from the Douyu tform, upon not seeing Jiang Siming, quickly ran back, afraid that the cameramen from Douyu might have captured Jiang Siming, and they missed seeing him. At the same time, two figures entered the hall, not boys but two girls. One of them was very familiar to everyone - one of Douyu''s top PUBG anchors, Dumb Little Sister. However, people were a bit unfamiliar with the other girl beside Dumb Little Sister, but her looks and appearance were not inferior to Dumb Little Sister''s. "The two beautiful anchor women who just arrived are both from the Douyu tform. One is Dumb Little Sister, and the other is Little Tuantuan." Wow! So, the person next to Dumb Little Sister was Little Tuantuan! Since Little Tuantuan''s live streams didn''t use a camera, many didn''t know what she looked like. Different from Dumb Little Sister''s beauty, Little Tuantuan exuded an elegant charm, slender figure, small face, and belonged to the cute type. With her usual voice, many viewers in the chat rooms eximed they were falling in love! Completely fitting their mental image of Little Tuantuan! And they looked good together. Especially since both girls seemed meticulously dressed, knowing they were here for a gamingpetition, others might mistake them foring for a blind date. The two girls stole many scenes and attracted a lot of admiring nces from male anchors. However, their ''expressions of love'' werepletely ignored by the two girls, who were looking around the hall, as if searching for someone. Finally, seemingly finding what they were looking for, Little Tuantuan grabbed Dumb Little Sister and rushed towards Weishen. "Senior Wei, did Little Brother Minge with you?" Little Tuantuan asked about Jiang Siming''s whereabouts instead of catching up with Weishen. "Oh, Little Tuantuan, didn''t expect you to look pretty good. But Old Jiang didn''te with us." Weishen shrugged. "Brother Ming probably hasn''t arrived yet. He said he''s on the way via WeChat, but there''s some traffic." Dumb Little Sister said. "What if he arrives when the match has already begun? Then I won''t have time to talk to Little Brother Ming!" Little Tuantuan pouted cutely. "You silly girl, even if you can''t talk during the match, you can meet afterward." Dumb Little Sister tapped Little Tuantuan''s forehead with her pinky finger. Hearing this, Little Tuantuan giggled, realizing that she was indeed being too impatient. "Who knows what Little Brother Ming looks like? Do you think he might look chubby like Senior Wei?" Tuantuan teased me with a mischievous smile. Dumb Little Sister gave her a yful side-eye and said, "If you droolter, I won''t forgive you." "So, you''ve seen Little Brother Ming before?" "Of course!" "Then tell me quickly, what does Little Brother Ming look like? How tall is he? How much does he weigh? Is he chubby?" "You''ll know soon enough, he''s absolutely handsome!" "Really? I''m so looking forward to it!" Chapter 52: Crazy Attracting Female Fans! Time slowly passed, and the participating anchors arrived one after another. The hosts had also arrived. This time, for thepetition, two popr female hosts from League of Legends, Yu Shuang and Rita, were invited. After all, they weren''tmentators; the two beauties were solely responsible for hosting, and there wouldn''t be any issues about the difference between gaming and professionalism. "Ladies and gentlemen, friends of the audience, the second Strongest Anchor Contest is about to begin in fifteen minutes. All 100 anchors are basically present. Let''s quietly await today''s battle for the strongest anchor!" "That''s right. The Strongest Anchor Contest today consists of three rounds. The scores from each round will be added up. Killing one person scores 30 points, a ''chicken dinner'' scores 200 points. The person with the highest total score will win the title of the Strongest Anchor." "Wow, Shuang Shuang, killing scores are so high in this round of the contest?" "Yes, in this Strongest Anchor contest, if you kill more than six people, it''s already equivalent to a ''chicken dinner,'' so anchors, killing is the key." The two female hosts were introducing the rules while checking thepetition time. There were only ten minutes left until the start of thepetition. In the Douyu live broadcast room, arge group of anxious fans were still eagerly waiting. "Why hasn''t Ming God arrived yet?" "Beingte should disqualify him from thepetition!" "Could it be that he''s too ugly to show up?" "Is this the ''Sniping God'' you guys hyped? He can''t even y in offline matches?" "The upstairs is my pet dog. Please don''t mind it." Because thepetition was about to start, Jiang Siming hadn''t appeared yet, inevitably inviting criticism from some people. The anxious Dumb Little Sister and Tuantuan in the venue also went tomunicate with the referees, exining Jiang Siming''s situation of being stuck in traffic. However, the rules of thepetition were very strict, and the referees did not consider such reasons. In fact, in events jointly held by multiple tforms, other tforms would rather your tform''s anchors encounter problems and not show up. This way, they''d have one lesspetitor. "What should we do? Little Ming hasn''t arrived yet." Tuantuan was so anxious that she couldn''t even sit still. If it weren''t for Dumb Little Sister holding her back, she would have gone out to look for him. "Don''t worry, don''t worry. Didn''t Little Ming say that his route had a traffic ident, but it''s been cleared, so he should be here soon." After Dumb Little Sister finished speaking, a figure walked in through the entrance. "Thest one to arrive at the scene is Ming, a new member from the Douyu tform and also 4am! Ming is quite courageous, making it here against the odds." Yu Shuang teased with a smile, then turned to look at Jiang Siming. The lights on the scene were just in time, focusing on Jiang Siming. With more than ten cameras aimed at him, Jiang Siming had ''no escape'' and revealed his true appearance, just like his voice. Under the spotlight, Jiang Siming was just like his voice. Once you make contact, it leaves a deep impression in the other person''s heart, impossible to forget. At the live venue, hundreds of anchors and the two female hosts nearby all felt like they were at the wrong event. Hey! Is this the esports venue? Why does it feel like being at a concert of some idol star? Why is there such an ''out-of-ce'' person here? Can someone exin this? Jiang Siming''s appearance undoubtedly added the hottest spark to thepetition that had not yet begun! The Douyu tform wentpletely crazy. "If this isn''t the real deal, I refuse to believe that this is a professional gamer, Zhao Ritian!" "Handsome, handsome, handsome! Ming God, you''ve amazed me!" "Wow, looking this good, ying games so skillfully, with such a melodious voice, is it even fair?" "I swear, from now on, Ming God is my husband! Peng Yuyan, I''m leaving you!" "Han Geng, I''m sorry, I''ve changed my mind." "Wu Yifan, you can go back to Canada and hang out with your cannon, I''ve found a new love!" Jiang Siming''s appearance has sessfully attracted a swarm of female fans. The viewer count in his live stream was skyrocketing. His fan count, initially at 180,000, was rapidly increasing at nearly a hundred per second, despite Jiang Siming being unaware of it. Jiang Siming approached the two hosts, Yu Shuang and Rita, and asked, "Excuse me, where is my seat?" Yu Shuang, who reacted first, blushed and checked the list, then said to Jiang Siming, "You''re in seat 32." "Thank you." After expressing his gratitude, Jiang Siming left and went straight to find his seat. Yu Shuang lightly nudged Rita with her elbow, saying, "Why did you be tongue-tied just now?" Rita, embarrassed, rolled her eyes and replied, "Mind your own business." "Looks like you''re smitten with him," Yu Shuang chuckled. "You''re the one smitten! If you keep talking nonsense, I''ll shut you up!" As Jiang Siming sat in seat 32, the person next to him looked familiar. It was none other than the renowned instructor, Dasima. "Ming God, hi! I really admire your Chicken Dinner skills. If there''s a chance, could you duo with me, little bro?" Faced with Dasima''s initiative, Jiang Siming graciously agreed, smiling in response. "Quickly set up your peripherals, the match is about to start," Dasima kindly reminded him. Jiang Siming nodded, taking out the keyboard and mouse he brought with him. Originally, he didn''t intend to, but Weishen told him that the on-site mouse wasn''t usually great. After setting up his peripherals, Jiang Siming logged into the game. A referee came over to check Jiang Siming''sputer for any prohibited electronic plugins. In a previous CS:GO match, an Indian yer brought a cheating USB drive, sneaked it in while nobody was watching, and started performing all sorts of miraculous headshots and quick scopes. When discovered, this Indian yer tried to delete those plugins with his super-fast hands, but they were still found in the recycle bin. Even though the technology for detecting FPS cheats is advanced, if someone is really cheating, the game''s system can surely detect it. However, many referees and inspectors were patrolling the venue to prevent anyone from taking risks and creating such scandals, which would be very unfair to other yers. After checking Jiang Siming''sputer and confirming no issues, there were five minutes left until the match started. "Brother Ming, Brother Ming~" A familiar voice reached Jiang Siming from a distance. Turning around, he saw Dumb Little Sister sitting a bit far away, smiling and waving at him. It was Jiang Siming''s first time seeing the real-life version of Dumb Little Sister, who looked just like she did on her livestreams. The only difference might be the absence of restrictions in reality. Her smile was bright, and her makeup was nice. In short, except for having a slightly smaller chest, everything was perfect. Jiang Siming smiled back at her and said, "Hello there, Dumb Dumb." Dumb Little Sister was overwhelmed by Jiang Siming''s smile, but this sweetness made her unable to resist. On the other side, Tuantuan naturally noticed it too. Initially hesitant to greet Jiang Siming, now it seemed like she had to. "Little Brother Ming~ Little Brother Ming~ Guess who I am?" Jiang Siming turned his head and saw another beauty waving at him, not inferior to Dumb Little Sister. Although they had never met, her voice revealed her identity. "Hello, Tuantuan. You look just as beautiful as I imagined," praised Jiang Siming. Tuantuan blushed shyly but couldn''t hide the smile that crept up on her face. "Brother Ming, you didn''tpliment my beauty. I''m upset now," Dumb Little Sister said in a ''jealous'' tone. "Do I need to say you''re beautiful? I thought you already knew that about yourself." With a casual sentence, Jiang Siming easily resolved the situation. Dumb Little Sister was then more delighted than Tuantuan,ughing as if she were a little silly. Chapter 53: First Blood Secured The entire venue was quiet as thepetition hadn''t begun, and many people weren''t wearing headphones. Jiang Siming and the two girls'' conversation naturally fell into the ears of others. The male anchors nearly had heart attacks out of jealousy, seeing such beautiful female hosts only flirting with him. It''s too much¡ªwhy is it just him getting the attention, and from two girls! Compared to their "resentment," there was a subtle envy among the women present. Many female anchors had decided to approach Jiang Siming after thepetition to ask for contact information. A guy like him was quite desirable. The three of them casually chatted amidst the crowd, theughter of the two girls dispersing the tense atmosphere. The chief cameraman, seeing that thepetition hadn''t started, decided to focus all the cameras on Jiang Siming and the two girls, earning unanimous praise fromizens. "Two minutes before the start of the match, let me reiterate the rules." Rita returned to the central area of the venue. "Thispetition is divided into three matches. Killing a person earns 30 points, a chicken dinner is worth 200 points. For the top three, second ce gets 100 points, third ce gets 50 points. The scores of all five matches will be umted to determine the winner of this edition of the Strongest Anchor Tournament." "No teaming up is allowed in thispetition. If found, the match will be canceled, and the anchor''s professional qualifications will be revoked!" "Any form of illegal plugins is strictly forbidden. If discovered, the case will be handed over to the authorities!" "After the match begins,munication is prohibited. The first offense will result in a warning, the second offense will lead to disqualification!" After the slightly serious exnation, the atmosphere at the scene became tense again. Speaking could lead to disqualification, teaming up could lead to losing your anchor career, which meant your broadcasting tform would be shut down. This was a coborative event of numerous tforms, so hopping onto another tform after being banned from one wouldn''t work. And let''s not even talk about using hacks¡ªreporting to the authorities. Clearly, thispetition was much stricter than the previous one, and after Rita''s announcements, there was silence at the venue. Jiang Siming and the two girls also remained silent; they needed to adhere to the rules. The cameras scanned every anchor present. Among the hundred anchors, many were recognizable faces¡ªThomas, Lan Zhanfei, A+, 17shou, Xue MM, and various top yers from professional teams. Apart from these experts, there were entertainers like Miss, Da Sima, and Dumb Dumb in this match. Today''spetition attracted the attention of nearly all tform viewers, and all the audience was rooting for their favorite anchors across different live streams. All anchors were ready, and the first match officially began! The ne took off. This match was set on the ind map. The three games were set on different maps: Ind, Desert, and Sahnok. The Ind map was the most familiar to yers. They knew its terrain, each house''s status, which area was rich, and which was poor. But this wasn''t just any casual game. In this match filled with experts, no one yed recklessly or wandered around aimlessly. Most people gave upnding in rich zones, choosing a low-key strategy to develop before engaging. Even though killing someone earned 30 points, they didn''t have confidence in surviving a chaotic brawl in such apetitive environment. The ne''s route was from S City toward the airport direction. As it passed over S City, more than a dozen parachutes were deployed. However, most of them didn''t aim for S City but its peripheral areas. There were many spots around S City¡ªCorners Z, Shooting Range, Bright Summit, K City, etc.¡ªexcellent ces for scavenging. Jiang Siming contemted joining them initially but observing everyone''s diverse directions, he gave up the idea. Following the flight path over Y City, another group of parachutes descended, yet almost nonended in Y City¡ªeveryone jumped to the wilds. Jiang Siming seemed undisturbed by the urge to jump off the ne, remaining calm and prepared tond at the destination airport. As people continued to jump along the flight path, when the ne arrived above the airport, only five remained besides Jiang Siming. Presumably, they all had the same idea¡ªto quickly grab a gun and be ready for potential confrontations. Jiang Siming manipted his parachute and rapidly descended. Quickly deploying his parachute, Jiang Simingnded while the other five were still descending. Witnessing Jiang Siming''s swift parachute opening, the others were startled. What surprised them even more was his fasternding speed! When Jiang Siming touched the ground, the fastest among them had just deployed their parachute! This turn of events dispersed those who had nned to contest C Building with Jiang Siming, making them fly towards K Building or the Police Station Satellite Building. Once Jiang Simingnded, he smoothly found an M16 semi-automatic rifle. Picking up the gun, loading it, he nced up. The other parachutists were still airborne, but only one was closest to him. Jiang Siming decided to take care of this nearbypetitor. Bang! Bang! Bang! Bullets shot from the rifle barrel, hitting an unprepared parachutist struggling with their descent. "yer [4am_ming] used M16 to eliminate yer [huya_dongxiaosa]." The elimination message appeared on the top right of the public screen, visible to everyone. From the start of the ne journey until now, this was the first yer elimination, and it was Jiang Siming who secured it. And the victim was none other than Dong Xiaosa, a well-known anchor from Huya! The Huya executives'' expressions darkened considerably. The first death at the beginning was from their tform. This was a major blow to their reputation. The live stream cameras quickly reyed the scene of the elimination. People witnessed Jiang Siming swiftlynding, picking up a gun, and quickly taking out Dong Xiaosa before he evennded. This caused a stir in the various live stream chatrooms: "Haha, Ming God is mighty! First elimination!" "Dong Xiaosa died in the first match, what a noob." "Huya tform: Dong Xiaosa, your sry''s gone!" "Kill Ming God, as expected! Jumping next to me, courting death." "Dong Xiaosa has no gaming experience, haha." While viewers were excitedly discussing, the executives from Douyu and Huya had contrasting emotions¡ªone was happy, the other disappointed. "Damn it, I died before evennding!" Dong Xiaosa cursed angrily at the screen. "Please refrain from speaking. Stay where you died and don''t move or talk," the stern referee behind him reminded. He immediately fell silent, feeling unfortunate for not checking his horoscope today¡ªa stroke of bad luck. Meanwhile, in a corner of the map, Dumb Dumb and Tuantuan, who were cautiously looting, saw this information and smiled. Their admiration for Jiang Siming seemed justified¡ªhe was indeed the best! The information had the most impact on the remaining four at the airport. Hearing the shots and then seeing the elimination message, they understood one thing: Jiang Siming was not only the fastest parachutist, but he was also close by in Building C! The Novel will be updated first on this website. Come back and continue reading tomorrow, everyone!
