<h4>Chapter 367: Let’s See How You Guys Die</h4>
"Are you secretly a medic or something?" Li Xiaofei asked. "Poisoning your opponents during the matches?"
How could there be so many coincidences? Two matches in a row, and both of his opponents, both top contenders in their respective regions, suddenly got hit with diarrhea?
yers who could reach first ce were always top-tier. They prepared meticulously before each match, and their physical conditioning was top-notch. It made no sense for them to suddenly get stomach issues out of nowhere.
Zhang Zhihong chuckled and replied, "If you want to think of it that way, I can’t stop you."
Li Xiaofei decided not to dwell on the matter. "I’m going live in a bit. I’ll send you the link. Make sure to be there as my assistant."
"Great, I’ll definitely be there."
"Don’t ke on me."
"Rx, even if my dad gets into a car ident, I’ll stille help you stream."
"What the... that’spletely unnecessary."
After parting ways in the virtual za, they were both teleported away by beams of light, returning to their respective virtual bases to prepare for the livestream.
Li Xiaofei ran through his checklist in his mind one more time and double-checked the items he had prepared. Once everything was confirmed, he reached out to Liao Qixing.
Liao Qixing had already prepared the livestream portal link and sent it over.
The Longya Group had strict standards for livestream rooms for their contracted streamers. They typically followed the streamer’s vision for the initial design and ensured it had a unique, professional style while maintaining a high level of quality to avoid any resemnce to low-tier sites.
Moreover, the livestream had already been promoted with preunch publicity. Li Xiaofei forwarded the portal link to Zhang Zhihong and clicked on it himself to enter.
The scene flickered. He found himself in a serene, ancient martial arts training ground, surrounded by clear skies and lush mountains. White clouds driftedzily over the green peaks.
The setting resembled the world of ancient martial arts legends, like something straight out of an Immortal Sword tale. It was the livestream scene Li Xiaofei had designed, beautifully crafted by Longya Group’s technical team.
Li Xiaofei stood still for a moment, and with a thought, a virtual screen appeared before him, disying the status of his livestream.
<i>Live now... </i>
<i>Online viewers: 348 </i>
<i>Heat value: 6960</i>
<i>Overall site ranking: 48,971</i>
These numbers were insignificantpared to the big-name streamers who had already made a name for themselves. However, for a new streamer, these were excellent results.
This sess wasrgely due to Longya Group’s D-level resource promotion, which had pushed some of Li Xiaofei’s most intense and exciting fight clips from the War Godpetition to draw viewers to his channel.
Li Xiaofei nced at the online audience and adjusted the title of his livestream to: <i>Starting with Qi Refining to Ascend to Sainthood</i>.
The title was bold and eye-catching. The phrase "Ascend to Sainthood" in particr carried a striking visual impact. Li Xiaofei nodded in satisfaction.
After setting up everything, he didn’t interact with the viewers in the chat. Instead, he focused on himself as he began to practice the Great Strength Vajra Fist. This was the first cultivation method he had learned after his transmigration. The power of the Vajra was unbreakable.
Li Xiaofei had mastered this technique to the point of perfection. The moves were simple, but their destructive power was immense.
He casually threw a punch.
<i>Boom!</i>
A st of energy shot forward, tearing through the air for a hundred meters. The sound of the explosion was deafening.
<i>Holy crap, that''s strong!</i>
@@novelbin@@
<i>This martial technique looks so simple, yet it can generate a hundred-meter energy st?</i>
<i>The streamer’s got some personality, saying nothing and just showing the good stuff right away.</i>
<i>Who''s the good stuff?</i>
<i>Get out of here, you pervs! This is an educational stream!</i>
Comments started scrolling across the screen as the audience reacted to the disy.
In this era, there were two ways to watch a livestream. One was by logging into the Light-Network virtual world, where you could enter the livestream room and observe everything up close. The other was through various screens,rge and small, which allowed them to watch from a distance.
The former was a product of Light Core virtual technology, one of the conveniences brought by the second virtual world. It’s almost like watching a live sports game in person, with extremely realistic sensations. On the other hand, thetter was simr toputers from five hundred years ago. All viewers could sendments in the form of bullet screens.
After Li Xiaofei finished performing his martial technique, the powerful energy he generated lingered in the air for a long time. The viewers present in the virtual world began pping immediately. Meanwhile, those watching from outside the virtual world started spamming 666 in the chat, a popr way of showing admiration.
The number of viewers in the livestream room skyrocketed, exceeding 2,300. The stream’s heat value reached 46,000 while the overall ranking climbed to within the top 40,000.
The growth rate was astonishing, representing nearly a tenfold increase in metrics. This surge was mainly due to the impressive disy of the martial technique he had just demonstrated, which instantly attracted many new viewers.
Li Xiaofei nced around and noticed that Zhang Zhihong still hadn’t arrived.
<i>Damn. He had boasted that he wouldn''t bete even if his dad got into a car ident. Yet, he’s king on me.</i>
"Dear viewers, the martial technique I just demonstrated is called the Great Strength Vajra Fist," Li Xiaofei exined calmly. "The Vajra is a deity from ancient religions, and symbolizes the power to subdue evil and defeat demons."
"This martial technique can be cultivated as early as the Qi Refining Stage, and it remains effective even up to the Five Spirits Realm. Its key features are its immense strength and destructive force. It strengthens the body and fortifies the mind, enabling the practitioner to act without fear and with integrity. Moreover, by channeling inner qi into the Great Strength Vajra Fist, one can fight opponents two stages higher within the Qi Refining Realm."
"To put it bluntly, the Great Strength Vajra Fist is the number one fist technique in the Qi Refining Realm," Li Xiaofei finished, his tone steady and confident.
His words caused an uproar among the more than two thousand viewers in the livestream.
<i>No way!</i>
<i>Fighting opponents two stages higher?</i>
<i>The number one martial technique in the Qi Refining Realm?</i>
<i>Can a fist technique really be that strong?</i>
<i>But didn''t the streamer just demonstrate it?</i>
<i>I want to learn it!</i>
The bullet screen filled with messages as viewers flooded the chat with their amazement. However, not everyone was convinced. Some skeptics and trolls made their presence known, mocking the ims.
<i>He''s full of it.</i>
<i>These days, anyone can set up a stream and scam people with some mystical nonsense.</i>
<i>If any random person could fight two stages higher with this technique, I’ll do a butterfly stroke in a sewer on my next stream.</i>
<i>If this technique were really that powerful, people would have hoarded it. Who would be kind enough to offer it for free?</i>
<i>Exactly, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. Everyone, don’t get scammed.</i>
A few ck-hearted trolls had started to appear.
Li Xiaofei ignored the negativements and continued teaching. He began demonstrating the first move of the Great Strength Vajra Fist, the Vajra Thunderous Strike. He went through the variations in the move and the method for controlling qi flow.
He broke down every detail carefully, going over it three times in a row. By now, the number of viewers in the livestream had reached 3,000. At that moment, Zhang Zhihong finally showed up.
"Sorry, sorry, I''mte," Zhang Zhihong said, drenched in sweat. "My dad actually got into a car ident, and we just got him to the hospital..."
Li Xiaofei was speechless. Judging by his appearance, he wasn’t joking.
<i>Can it be that this guy is truly cursed with a sharp tongue? Everything he says seems toe true.</i>
"Shouldn''t you be taking care of your dad?" Li Xiaofei urged him. "I can handle the stream by myself."
Zhang Zhihong waved his hand dismissively and said, "I''m not a doctor. There''s nothing I can do even if I go. Besides, the old man’s tough as nails; he won’t die. If I’m not worried, why are you?"
The livestream viewers erupted inughter.
<i>Wow, this is the assistant?</i>
<i>And he’s a guy—what aedian!</i>
<i>Hrious, man!</i>
<i>‘Hrious to death’—literally!</i>
What had been a serious livestream suddenly became lively and full of humor. Of course, the earlier trolls weren’t done causing trouble.
One in particr, a user named Kuang Henzo, who sported a fan badge for another streamer famous for martial techniques, continued to stir the pot.
<i>What’s this? We questioned your overhyped martial technique, and now you brought in some clown of an assistant to change the subject? Ha! Fraud streamers should all die. Go back home and eat crap!</i>
Kuang Henzo kept spamming the chat with insults.
Zhang Zhihong, who clearly understood how to y along with the dynamics of livestreaming, didn’t respond directly. Instead, after catching up on what had happened, he grinned and said, "Alright, let’s do this. In the light core virtual world, people can actually practice martial techniques, right? How about we pick a few lucky viewers, let them connect directly, and have the streamer personally guide them. We’ll see if this martial technique works or not. How about it, Kuang Henzo? Are you brave enough to make a bet?"
<i>How do we bet? </i>
The troll immediately responded loudly.
Zhang Zhihong smirked. "A bet of 10,000 star coins. If someone here can sessfully practice the Vajra Thunderous Strike and achieve the results the streamer promised, you gift a Little Dragon worth 10,000 star coins. But if they can’t, I’ll transfer 10,000 star coins to you on the spot. Deal?"
Kuang Henzo replied quickly.
<i>Fine, deal. Let’s see how you all fail.</i>
