Chapter 168 - 168: First Round of Battle
Petite Delicate was a popular female streamer in the Second World, and she was invited by the company to be part of the live broadcast commentary for the tournament.
However, she was not the only one invited by the company this time. Other streamers like Zhang Wanshan were also invited. This league match was no different from the previous leaderboard guild matches.
Before the live broadcast started, the streamers were all diligently memorizing their scripts, except for Zhang Wanshan, who was joking around with another female streamer. Petite Delicate rolled her eyes, knowing that it would not be her who would end up embarrassing herself.
“Hello, everyone! Welcome to the live broadcast of the Second World Guild Ranking League Match. 1 am today’s special host, Feifei.”
At the beginning of the live broadcast, an incredibly glamorous woman stood on the stage. Her strong presence combined with her extremely elegant features made it intimidating for ordinary people to approach her.
Her slender waist, accentuated by the black evening gown, appeared even more delicate, and her figure was quite appealing.
Zhang Wanshan’s eyes lit up when he saw her, and he could not help but lick his lips. A new prey had arrived. He ignored the playful gestures of the female streamer beside him and waited for Feifei to introduce him. When his turn came, he stood up and gazed affectionately at Feifei.
“I am extremely honored to receive the invitation from the company. 1 will continue to contribute my strength to the Second World.”
The male streamer next to him frowned upon hearing his shameless words. Feifei did not pull punches and said, “As a technical streamer, Zhang Wanshan needs to improve his skills!”
Upon hearing this, Petite Delicate could not help but burst into laughter, which made Zhang Wanshan extremely displeased. Feifei glanced at her with a hint of helplessness and said, “This is Petite Delicate, the entertainment streamer of the Second World.”
Petite Delicate stood up, warmly greeted the camera, and waved at the audience in front of her. Zhang Wanshan’s fans were not happy about it.
He already had many female fans, and earlier, Petite Delicate openly disrespected their idol in front of everyone, so they had already started criticizing her in the comments.
“Well, I can only say their manners need improvement. Wanshan’s teachings are invaluable. Even if they don’t bother to learn, they shouldn’t resort to slander.”
“I really don’t understand why someone as polite and cultured as Wanshan is being bullied in such a situation. I feel sorry for him.”
“Wanshan, you shouldn’t have come. The host can’t treat everyone equally. How can she still call herself a host?”
“Why are you women yapping away here? If you have the guts, go to the scene yourself! Don’t waste my time here, I want to watch beautiful ladies.”
“Can’t you men learn from Zhang Wanshan? Are you only capable of judging by appearances?”
“Yeah, looking at beautiful women brings joy. Besides, have you seen that scoundrel Zhang Wanshan flirting with the female streamer just now and pretending to be innocent here? Disgusting!”
The comments in the chat were filled with intense arguments. Every single comment was visible to all the streamers. Zhang Wanshan felt extremely embarrassed, and even the female streamer who was playing with him earlier had an unpleasant expression on her face.
It was clear that Zhang Wanshan had made advances toward her, but how could his fans still take his side? They even claimed that she was the one who seduced him, which was truly cringe-worthy.
Petite Delicate and Feifei were good friends in the same industry. She was pleased to have witnessed Zhang Wanshan being humiliated.
“Today, the first lineup for the guild battle has been announced. Let’s take a look,” said Feifei, and a picture appeared on the live broadcast showing the one hundred guilds grouped for the matches.
When it came to the Twelfth Guild from Country H, the netizens had a lot to say.
The entertainment industry in Country H was highly developed, and among the top hundred guilds, the Twelfth Guild had the highest visual appeal. Not only did they recruit female players, but each and every one of them could sing and dance.
They were the center of attention and the money-making machine in Country H. People were excited to see the showdown between them and the Mad Dragon Guild.
“Focus the camera on the Mad Dragon Guild. 1 just want to see their battle against the girls.”
“Hahaha, 1 wonder if the members of the Mad Dragon Guild will show mercy to the ladies.”
“Speaking of which, will the Twelfth Guild’s girls sing and dance? I’m quite looking forward to it. After all, their songs are pretty good.”
“I heard the Twelfth Guild girls released a new album. These girls really have talent, balancing both the game and their music career.”
Seeing how interested the netizens were in the Twelfth Guild, Feifei asked for the opinions of a few streamers.
Han Xing did not know much about these guilds, and when North Star saw that the Twelfth Guild was their opponent, his features softened into a playful expression.
“Guild Master, this guild is quite interesting. It’s definitely a money-making guild created by Country H.”
North Star shared the information he had gathered with the guild members. It was true that the Twelfth Guild recruited female players, but most of them were fully dedicated to the game. The talk about their albums was just marketing, and they were not the ones personally involved.
Other players in the Mad Dragon Guild were quite surprised at this gossip, but Han Xing was indifferent. In his eyes, it did not matter which guild they belonged to. He simply had to defeat them all.
“Alright, the battle starts in one minute. Everyone, get ready!”
White Jade Snow Orchid could not wait any longer. Now that she had leveled up, she wanted to test the power of her skills.
The netizens on the official forum were envious when they learned that the Mad Dragon Guild would be facing the Twelfth Guild.
After the battle began, many people only focused on the matches of the Mad Dragon Guild, and could not care less about the rest.
The female players of the Twelfth Guild had heard of the acclaimed Mad Dragon Guild. They were the first foreign guild that had gained popularity in Country H.
Once the battle began, the female players were taken aback by the Mad Dragon Guild’s players’ levels. While the players from the Twelfth Guild were mostly at Level Three, the Mad Dragon Guild had already reached Level Five, leaving them in awe.
Internally, they were already cursing under their breaths. How were they supposed to fight? The difference in power would be overwhelming even with just a one-level difference.
Han Xing had no intention of making a move. It had been a long time since he assessed the progress of the guild members, and today was a good opportunity to take a look.
Han Xing exchanged a subtle greeting with Cui Minen, the guild master of the Twelfth Guild. Both sides showed no mercy once the countdown ended.
One Sword Horizon and Turban Qiaoqiao took the initiative. One launched a close-range attack, while the other engaged in long-range combat, catching the Twelfth Guild off guard.
However, they immediately reoriented themselves, and three female players from the Twelfth Guild launched a surprise attack..
