Chapter 152: Soul of Hongye

Chapter 152: Soul of HongyeShen Yan looked exasperated. He wished he could find something to stuff into her mouth.

"Although... but..." He choked, "Damn it, don't talk about riding the wave in the livestream! I'm docking your pay."

Little You blinked her large, clear eyes, looking both aggrieved and puzzled. "But boss, you said it yourself. You always say you act openly and with integrity, and there's nothing that can't be said to others."

Shen Yan took a deep breath.

I did say that. But it wasn't meant to be understood like this. It's better to change the topic quickly.

"Remember, the so-called sixth prestigious school among the top five is a term some people outside use for Hongye High School. Many think it's a compliment, but actually, people from Hongye High School find it very offensive and even hateful." Shen Yan explained.

Little You blinked again in confusion, "Why is that?"

Shen Yan immediately continued, "Because, ten years ago, Hongye High School's legendary principal, Ms. Xiao Hongye, took over and set the motto ‘Break the monopoly, Hongye reigns supreme’. However, it hasn't been fully achieved yet. So, Little You, you rascal, don't say things like that in the livestream. Otherwise, some crazy Little Hongye students might think you're being sarcastic and cyberbully you so badly that even your mom wouldn't recognize you."

"Wow, such a bold motto." Little You said admiringly, "Principal Xiao is truly a star among women in our base city. She's my idol... I mean, she really admires me... no, I really admire her. She's my idol."

"Principal Xiao is indeed a great figure who’s worthy of praise and respect." Shen Yan quickly added.

This exchange made many Hongye High School fans who had just entered the livestream calm down. They even came to the conclusion that the streamer was quite decent. However, long-time fans saw through their act of playful banter and started flooding the chat with revealing comments.

Shen Yan sighed deeply. He had aspired to become an authoritative tech streamer, but now, he had inadvertently become part of a comedy duo.

The world is treacherous.

"Huh? Boss, look! What are the Hongye High School team members doing?" Little You suddenly exclaimed loudly, "They're blocking the entrance to the player tunnel. Are they planning to intercept Red Flag High School for an early show of dominance?"

Shen Yan looked through the glass toward the player tunnel. He saw Hongye High School team members lined up on either side of the tunnel exit, seemingly waiting for something.

"This is their tradition." Shen Yan explained, "Before every match, the Hongye High School team lines up at the tunnel entrance to applaud and welcome their opponents who have traveled from afar."

"Wow, that's so polite?" Little You was amazed.

Shen Yan added, "They're welcoming their opponents for making the effort to come and become their stepping stones to a higher rank."

Ths assistant was instantly rendered speechless.

"Red Flag High School's team is coming out." She quickly shifted the topic, clasping her hands in front of her chest with an infatuated expression. "Leading the way is, of course, the handsome Li Xiaofei. Ah, his expression is so calm, his wise eyes are full of confidence, and his graceful steps exude the aura of a true dark horse. I can almost see his chiseled abs through his clothes..."

Shen Yan did not know what to say. The livestream chat exploded with comments filled with question marks.

Oh no, the assistant is in heat.

She used to secretly drool, but now she's being blatantly obvious. seaʀᴄh thё nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Did you see Little White Dragon's expression? Something just shattered.

Stop your wicked thoughts. Fist King's abs belong to all of us.

The audience erupted into another round of heated discussion.

Shen Yan quickly redirected the inappropriate conversation, saying, "The match is about to start, and we already have over 100,000 viewers in the livestream. The pre-match betting has ended, and while many are fans of Li Xiaofei, the Fist People, they are still showing restraint and rationality. 68 percent of viewers believe Hongye High School will win, while only 32 percent have faith in Red Flag High School."

"Boss, which side are you on?" the assistant asked.

Shen Yan confidently replied, "Do you even need to ask? As the moderator of Fist Club, member number 000001 of the Fist People, I am obviously part of the 32 percent supporting Red Flag High School."

"Got it," the assistant said. "Then I'll bet the remaining 136.4 star coins on your card on Red Flag High School to win."

"Damn it, stop right there!" Shen Yan was alarmed. "Position is position, and life is life. When it comes to betting, I'd still choose Hongye High School."

The viewers in the livestream burst into laughter again.

Dog streamer, really a dog.

He can even do something so shameless.

Laughter and playful comments flooded the chat.

"I just got some data from some of our official sources. In the other thirty-six livestreams, the percentage of people betting on Hongye High School to win was consistently over 90 percent..." Shen Yan said. "The fact that we have 32 percent support here indicates that this is indeed the stronghold of Red Flag High School fans."

"Why is Red Flag High School's support rate so low this time?" Little You asked, puzzled. "Didn't their previous performances warrant more confidence?"

Shen Yan sighed and said, "The main reason is that Fist King Li Xiaofei is not favored. Most people believe that this time he won't be able to maintain his undefeated record."

"Why not?"

"Because Hongye High School has superstar players."

"Little Sword Immortal Gu Haochen?"

"No, it's Soul of Hongye Wang Siyu."

"Is he very strong?"

"Of course. In Season 250 last year, Wang Siyu ranked fourth in solo mode, just behind Xiong Zhigang, Zhou Yunong, and Ye Keran, and far ahead of the fifth place. He is considered a top contender for the new league king. His Limit Breaking Realm cultivation is ahead of many of his peers, and his strength has only increased this year."

"I didn't know about this."

"I told you to do more homework, but you spend all day drooling over Li Xiaofei's abs. No wonder you don't know."

"Oh, that's not true! I don't always do that."

As the banter between the streamer and his assistant continued, the match officially began.

First up was solo mode. The first to compete for Red Flag High School was the veteran Fang Buyi. Fang Buyi had made significant progress since comprehending the essence of staff techniques in the match against Longteng High School. His staff techniques had become more formidable and undefeated.

He had also been in great form recently. His popularity in the league had also been rising steadily. Confident in his abilities, Fang Buyi was ready for this match. Hongye High School, on the other hand, fielded the super dark horse, Little Sword Immortal Gu Haochen.

Staff King vs. Little Sword Immortal. The first match was already highly anticipated. However, many were surprised by the outcome, as the match turned out to be completely one-sided.

It only took thirty seconds for a winner to be decided.
