Chapter 120 - A little cool.
【eeeeeeeeks that’s so greasy!! KK, enough with your acidic love!!】
【Sister Liang doesn’t want to acknowledge you!!】
【What are you doing!! Aren’t you supposed to be livestreaming games??? Could you please play properly!!】
Of course he could play the game properly, but now that the game was over, Kang Shengzhe’s fans were so excited in their revelry they collectively exploded. Whereas on Piaoluo’s end, his fans seemed to have descended into an ice cellar without a sound. Piaoluo himself was silent too, and it took him a moment before he spoke: “It’s my loss.”
While he managed to keep his usual lightness, his complexion was extremely ugly. Piaoluo exited the game room and opened the voice channel that linked him with Howling Wolf, but no sound came out of it even though it was connected.
Howling Wolf had been rendered speechless.
Luckily, this was Piaoluo’s live broadcasting room and not Howling Wolf’s, or else the only thing that would be held against him would not be his swearing alone, for his hideous expression after he had lost control of himself would be hung up there as well.
Honestly speaking, Howling Wolf could not understand how the hell they managed to reach this state!
They were supposed to give KK a show of severity in the quarterfinals, but he ended up having to withdraw from the competition...
Withdraw from the competition? What kind of joke was he trying to make!! He had been pinning on this ranking competition to help him attract even more fans to increase his standing on the website! Furthermore, the experience he had in the game just now was far too abusive, and he was so angry he only wanted to curse whenever he opened his mouth!!
He really shouldn’t have formed an alliance with Piaoluo!!
He had presumed that Piaoluo’s experience and records of service would be of help to him, but his skill level did not differ much from his own! The person who had always disdained for his technique could not even beat a Cai Wenji to death when the push came to shove!!
And he even chose to be obstinate and rush up at the last juncture! Trash! Waste!!
After composing himself, Howling Wolf finally replied but he did not sound happy. “We lost, we lost, when such tactics are used, who wouldn’t lose, I’m convinced.”
His words were infused with deliberate ambiguity and it was hard to ignore it. Kang Shengzhe smiled, “What tactics?”
Howling Wolf said: “Aren’t you aware of what tactics you used?”
“Aren’t you aware of your own skill level?” Kang Shengzhe replied.
They were both popular anchors on MengMao TV; while they were not acquaintances who would nod to each other in the passing, there had never been a moment where they were diametrically opposed before this. Thus, their imminent catfight was especially obvious in the comments that the fans were issuing.
【It doesn’t matter if Howling Wolf is capable or not, but as a game anchor, he can’t even afford to lose?】
【Mother, our KK killed you in an open and honest manner, alright? Why are you blaming my KK for the fact that you’re unskilled as an anchor?】
【Did his IQ lower because he recalled how he has to withdraw from the competition? You must be sick, right? What’s with the deliberate ambiguity in your tone!!】
【???? Who’s deliberately being ambiguous?? Does your KK’s words sound good to hear???】
【KK is the one who has been outrageously rampant, please! Are you guys selectively blind? What, do you think you’re great just because your numbers are higher?】
Seeing that his own fans had stood up to tear up the live broadcasting room, Howling Wolf felt some of his confidence return, and his tone of voice was more unyielding than before. “The competition held by the website has stringent requirements about participation. Now that we’re this close to the finals, it’ll be very difficult to withdraw from the competition. Furthermore, we don’t know if the company will agree to it and it is uncertain as to whether it will affect the executives’ opinion of us.”
What he was trying to explicate was that for KK to raise the condition of having to withdraw from the competition when the person was unwilling or unable to was unreasonable. However, if the person who lost was KK, Howling Wolf would definitely have another face.
&#k3010;What the fuck!! How shameless&#k2026;&#k2026;&#k3011;
【Clicking my tongue, Howling Wolf, how did you manage to say those words out loud?】
【Throwing up, this is seriously disgusting.】
【Scram!!! Do you think your KK is not disgusting!! He’s the best for bringing a healer everywhere with him and fought one person as a pair! Are you happy now!!】
Rather than feeling angry, Kang Shengzhe found the entire situation funny. He was too lazy to say more, so he simply said: “You were the one who agreed to it yourself. If you feel like your skin is thick enough, you can continue to PK in the next round ah. Either way, it’s not like I can do anything about it; at most, there will be people mocking you for the fact that you can’t afford to lose.”
Howling Wolf was agitated into stiffening. “You fucking...”
“KK.” Piaoluo, who had remained silent up until now, suddenly opened his mouth to speak, “We’ll definitely withdraw from the competition since we lost, but aren’t you being overly aggressive by doing this?”
Once those words out, the atmosphere surrounding the live broadcasting room underwent a change: from the call outs of Howling Wolf wanting to renege because he could not take a loss, it became as if they were the ones tolerating Kang Shengzhe’s bullying and they hadn’t spoken a word about it.
It fermented the sentiments present and it was the moment Piaoluo had been waiting for.
Cai Wenji’s disruptive playstyle had undoubtedly taken him by surprise, nearly agitating him to the extent where he did not know what to do. Yes, in that short game, Piaoluo had experienced what it was like to rise only to fall sharply and he even lost the game in the end. It had shaken him badly, but he had to maintain his own public image in front of the camera.
A loss was a loss; it was a truth he could not change no matter how he spat, cursed or regretted, and he could only try to salvage the situation in the fastest time possible. It goes without saying that Piaoluo was unwilling to withdraw from the competition, god knows how much effort he had spent to help bring about this ranking competition, and to the scale where it involved all the anchors in MengMao.
Right now, this was his only chance to become a mainstay anchor in MengMao again and it was the only chance he had to cut off KK’s rapid official advancement.
However, whether he was the one who personally agreed to the condition of withdrawing from the competition was not something he should be disputing from the onset. The reason why Piaoluo decided to turn on the voice channel that connected him to Howling Wolf was because he wanted to let Howling Wolf speak out against it. Sure enough, this brusque idiot who knocked and bumped into everything did not fall short of popular expectations.
Just like this, the atmosphere in the live broadcasting room – one which was already leaning towards a heated argument – was stirred up, and he added more fuel to the fire to make the conspiracy even bigger to turn everyone’s attention away.
Thinking that, Piaoluo said: “It’s just a game, why did you have to kick up such an ugly fuss about it?”
It was apparent from the start that the reason why it was ugly was because he could not keep to his own words, but now that he phrased it that way, he made it sound like Kang Shengzhe was being obstinate in refusing to let the matter go. The chatter amongst the audience picked it up very quickly.
【Yeah!! Why did you have to kick up such an ugly fuss about it, KK, aren’t you being too unreasonable!! It was only supposed to be a game.】
【All you had to do was play the game, so why did you have to bury freezing irony and burning satire in your words? Why, just because you’re the best??? Yes, I’m talking about you, KK, your conceit is groundless!!】
【Finally someone said it. KK has been displeasing to my eye from the start; he doesn’t know how to speak properly, and why is he always belittling others?】
【So what if you have a high hand speed? An anchor is not exempt from having to act like a proper human, don’t you find yourself ugly when you’re acting like a dog, biting on things and refusing to let go!!】
.......
【Oh my freaking god!!! Piaoluo and Howling Wolf fans are truly refreshing my thoughts on values!! Could you please open your dog eyes wide, OK??? Who was the one who lost and refused to admit to it, and even started blaming other people for being obstinate and refusing to let the matter drop???】
【Can you guys want some face??】
【What do mean by belittling others ah, you’re the ones afflicted with a delusional disorder!!】
【Hell, my heart hurts for my KK, why does my KK have to suffer from such grievances.】
【What are you saying so much for, I’ll just ask you one question, are you going to withdraw from the competition or not! If you’re human, withdraw from the competition!!】
Speaking of that point, KK’s fans became incomparably cohesive all of a sudden. In an instant, the entire screen was filled with the comment【If you’re human, withdraw from the competition.】.
It was packed with different colours.
Piaoluo’s eyebrows furrowed together and his complexion was pale. He said: “Don’t fight, I’ll issue a post on Weibo that I’m withdrawing from the competition tomorrow.”
Noticing that his expression looked extremely upset, Piaoluo fans felt like they had been stabbed in the heart and they all raised a hue and cry.
【No!! Why do you have to withdraw from the competition!! Don’t withdraw!! It’s just a game!! The competition isn’t KK’s house!!】
【I really think that withdrawing from the competition is unnecessary.... For starters, it was KK who inexplicably raised that condition!!】
In the time of the cat fight, Howling Wolf’s army of fans naturally teamed up with Piaoluo’s fans.
【Why did he constantly pick on Howling Wolf and Piaoluo and engage in two against one fights? Who couldn’t see that that they were fighting a 2v1 in the game? It was obviously KK and Cai Wenji who were the two going against one.】
【Fighting by a 2v1 and forcing others to withdraw from the competition, be more realistic please!!】
And it was like they had descended into a frenzy as condemnations curtained the screen. KK’s main force of fans took the lead in providing strength and they immediately gave Kang Shengzhe twelve cat villas in succession.
A special effect triggered by the gifts unfolded in the live broadcasting room, cleansing the comments with its extreme conspicuousness. The words attached read: 【KK won the game, please let that sink in.】
The words reminded the other people in the live broadcasting room that KK’s victory in the game was an indelible truth, but that was not necessarily the case for the ranking competition. As long as Piaoluo’s gifts was more than KK, he would be nominally promoted in accordance with the rules, and his speed would also be faster than KK’s.
Thus, Piaoluo fans and Wolf fans no longer concerned themselves with anything else and started giving their anchor gifts in a fervent craze. Immediately, the live broadcasting room was surrounded in heaps of gifts.
In actuality, when it came to the number of fans, no one could match up to KK. But when Piaoluo and Howling Wolf fans were combined together, trying to balance it out with KK’s numbers was a non-issue.
There were only a few minutes left on the clock, and the bars for the gifts increased ceaselessly. KK was in the lead, and then it became Piaoluo; neither side was willing to relent. Meanwhile, Kang Shengzhe’s expression was indolent and he even yawned in front of the camera.
Since You Liangxing stood up to walk to the back, Kang Shengzhe was only thinking about what Liang Liang could be doing. He was completely out of the situation with regards to the victory or defeat of this round’s ranking competition, while Piaoluo’s eyes were completely riveted on the gift bar, heart drumming up a beat as he watched the last of his schemes fall into place.
Thirty seconds, twenty seconds, ten seconds.
Piaoluo’s gifts exceeded Kang Shengzhe by a total of ten thousand!
Good! His fans had given their all! He could hold on! As long as he won this round, and depend on Howling Wolf playing the villain, he could take advantage of the opportunity to push away and erase the matter of having to withdraw from the competition!
The time had reached its final juncture: Ten, nine, eight, seven, six...
Suddenly, a particularly large cat head blasted the live broadcasting room open. Carefully looking at it, the cat head was made out of small dots of small cat villas.
... Cat Villas!!!
How many Cat Villas was this!!
In an instant, Kang Shengzhe’s gift bar made an abrupt rush upwards, and the number was too frightening; even Kang Shengzhe had to narrow his eyes to count how many zeros there were.
Ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand.... Five hundred thousand and two...
520,000!!
Someone gave Kang Shengzhe a smashing five hundred and twenty thousand!!
The competition to rush into the posted list of names came to an abrupt end and the entire live broadcasting room was thoroughly stupefied by the sudden development and turn of events.
【AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH OMG!! 520,000!!!】
【520,000!!! Ahhh, I’m kneeling, I’m kneeling!!】
【Bigshot!! Bigshot ahh!! Ah, that’s not right, now is not the time to praise this bigshot, comrades!!! KK WON!!!】
【KK WON!! Top Four!!! Champion!! Charge!!】
The sender did not stop at giving gifts, they even attached a message at the back.
【Welcome to YouLiang TV】: Remember to withdraw from the competition.
The weight of the words from a person who smashed five hundred and twenty thousand was particularly intense, causing Piaoluo’s complexion to go white in an instant. Simultaneously, the competition came to an end, which initiated the separation between Piaoluo and KK’s live broadcasting rooms, and the former anchor disappeared from the screen.
The live broadcasting room was in an unbridled frenzy!
【Amazing!! Handsome!!!】
【Bowing to this big shot like crazy!! Also, screaming support for my KK!!】
【Speaking of which, what kind of online pseudonym is YouLiang TV hahahahahaha, is this bigshot trying to make an advertisement??】
【I can’t shake off this inexplicable and strange feeling I have ahahahahaha!!】
T/N: Twenty chapters left, are you ready for the end?
