The Trouble of Breaking Through

The netizens’ comments were mixed. Su Yun realized that there were still many old fans who supported him.

Feeling relieved, he said, “Let’s try connecting livestreams today and interact with the other streamers.”

“I hope everyone will support me. Thank you, everyone.”

With that, Su Yun did not wait for the audience to react and activated the microphone standby.

[Trying to connect to PK, please wait…]

[You’ve been matched with a streamer; ‘A Little Strawberry’]

With a whoosh, the screen in Su Yun’s live-stream was split into two. The other party connected after a short black screen.

The other party’s livestream also appeared on Su Yun’s side.

On the screen was a female streamer in skimpy clothes with curvaceous breasts.

At the same time, the female streamer also saw Su Yun’s live-stream. When she saw that Su Yun was a young and handsome young man, her expression softened significantly.

A Little Strawberry: “Hello handsome, may I know what kind of streamer you are?”

“Hello, I’m a card player.”

A little strawberry smiled in confusion. “Playing cards? This is a positive energy platform. It’s irreconcilable with drugs and gambling!”

Immediately, the netizens in both live-streams exploded.

There were 2,476 people online in Little Strawberry’s live-stream.

“Positive energy!”

“Positive energy +1”

“I have an irreconcilable grudge against drugs and gambling!”

“Brother, you didn’t mention the word ‘sex’ at all.”

“I, Sex, am absolutely irreconcilable with gambling and drugs!”

Then, the live-stream on the other side was flooded with ‘positive energy’.

In Su Yun’s live-stream, there were 587 people online:

“The female streamer’s melons are big and white…”

“I’m too embarrassed to expose you. Don’t pry into society.”

“With these two streamers linked, drugs, gambling, sex, we’re only missing drugs.”

“I won’t allow you to say that about our Brother Perseverance. We’re serious card throwing streamers.”

Su Yun looked at the live-streams on both sides and realized that hundreds of viewers had flooded in through the connected live-stream.

The effect was shockingly good!

Wasn’t this just freeloading?

Su Yun struck while the iron was hot and said, “Beauty, you’ve misunderstood. I’m a card throwing streamer.”

A Little Strawberry: “Card throwing? What does that mean?”

Su Yun revealed the wooden stake filled with poker cards behind him and smiled. “Literally.”

Then, they saw the wooden stake behind Su Yun that was like a target for arrows and understood immediately.

“Card Throwing Streamer, show me your talents.”

“Well, what’s your talent?”

“I dance.”

The two of them chatted for a while more before deciding to have a live-stream PK.

Both sides agreed that whoever lost in terms of combat strength would have to accept the other party’s punishment.

Su Yun agreed and began to prepare his talents.

What talent could Su Yun have? It was nothing more than card throwing.

Although his fans were tired of it, the audience in the other party’s live-stream had never seen it before, so it was still considered novel.

When the PK started, A Little Strawberry’s combat power instantly reached 200 combat power.

This combat power value was a digitization of the ‘strength and popularity’ of both sides when the Sharkfight Platform was used for PK.

To put it bluntly, the Sharkfight Platform encouraged the streamer to send gifts during the PK segment.

Combat power value needed to be increased by likes and gifts.

The most praiseworthy thing was the combat strength bar.

It hung above the livestream like a streamer’s health bar, stimulating the audience’s vision at any time.

As for the streamers on both sides, it was as if they were in a tug-of-war competition. Their combat strength bars were ropes.

When the two streamers competed, the fans and netizens in their respective live-streams would automatically be brought into the corresponding streamer’s team.

It was like a tug of war between two classes. Everyone wanted to win and wanted their class to win.

As a result, the netizens would give it a lot of likes and gifts.

For the streamer, he had obtained the opportunity to expose himself in front of the audience in the other party’s live-stream and also received a portion of the gifts and tips.

It would also be more entertaining and enjoyable for the audience, as well as the satisfaction of winning.

This was taking advantage of the fact that everyone liked to watch the show. Therefore, after the livestream of the PK event was released, it received everyone’s craze.

Soon, Su Yun, who was originally at a disadvantage in the PK, threw out a few poker cards with proficiency. In an instant, Su Yun’s combat strength surpassed A Little Strawberry’s.

Seeing that her combat strength was being suppressed, A Little Strawberry began to dance even harder.

“Brothers in the livestream, please cheer for A Little Strawberry. A Little Strawberry can work even harder. You can’t watch me be bullied.”

Sure enough, children who knew how to cry had milk to drink. Under the attack of a few sweet words, A Little Strawberry easily grasped the mentality of the number one on the rankings.

Little Strawberry’s top fan generously sent out a BMW. His combat strength instantly crushed Su Yun’s gifts.

On the other hand, Su Yun’s side was very boring. There was no passionate soundtrack or inspiring words in the entire livestream room.

Only Su Yun repeatedly threw the poker cards.

Although it was fast and accurate, the first time they were surprised, the second time they were bored…

Soon, the PK time ended.

Su Yun lost.

The female host asked Su Yun to do 50 push-ups before stopping.

After that, Su Yun messaged a few more small streamers.

Among them were the ‘idiots’ who pretended to be ugly, the ‘telegraph monkeys’ who shouted into their mics, the singers, the fortune-tellers, and even the live streamers who knocked on wooden blocks…

There were all kinds of monsters.

It had to be said that the livestream industry was really full of experts.

Everyone would do anything to earn popularity.

In comparison, Su Yun’s flying card livestream seemed so weak.

Even Su Yun himself felt that his livestream content was too monotonous.

However, the current Su Yun was not only live-streaming to earn popularity.

What he was more concerned about now was the improvement of his realm.

After turning off the livestream, Su Yun realized that the peak of today’s popularity was close to 4,000.

“Looks like this PK is really effective.”

Su Yun could not help but sigh.

After all, he had to livestream for two months before he could say that hundreds of people were watching.

Previously, the peak had only reached more than 2,000 people in a day. Now, it had broken the record in the afternoon.

If it was the peak time for watching the livestream at night, he might have a chance to break through the 5,000-person traffic barrier.

This initial attempt gave Su Yun a taste of the benefits and the room for improvement in his livestream career.

For the next few days, Su Yun would engage in a few consecutive PKs before starting the livestream.

Gradually, this sentence spread in the circle of some small streamers.

“If you get randomly paired with a card throwing streaamer, then play a more exciting game with him. He will definitely lose!”

Su Yun did not know what was going on either. Regardless of whether his popularity was higher than the other party’s, as long as it was a PK, he would definitely lose!

Then, the comments in his live-stream gradually changed.

Some of the netizens who had always called him Brother Perseverance affectionately called Su Yun Brother Loser!

However, Su Yun’s personality was more indifferent. He would not take any punishment to heart. He would do whatever was asked of him like he promised.

Of course, the other party’s punishment would not be too excessive. It was usually some corporal punishment. If it was too excessive, the platform would not allow it.

Gradually, because of his straightforward personality, Su Yun’s popularity and fan count began to rise rapidly.

In just a week, Su Yun’s account had more than 1,000 fans. Moreover, the number of viewers in the live-stream was maintained at more than 1,000.

This surprised Su Yun, but fortunately, the popularity issue was temporarily resolved.

Su Yun’s biggest headache was that he had recently discovered during his livestream that his strength seemed to have reached a bottleneck again and it was difficult for him to improve again.

As for the second realm, he could use it as he wished. It was still a long way off.

On this day, Su Yun tidied up the house and lay on the sofa, staring blankly at the soft wooden stake.

At this moment, Su Yun had removed all the poker cards on the soft wooden stake.

But the scars left by the playing cards on the skin of the cork stakes are permanent.

Staring at the marks on it, Su Yun fell into deep thought.

“I’m only at the beginner level now. How can I break through to the point where I can use it like my own arm?”
