The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot novel Chapter 299

Chapter 299: 288 online face-slapping, exploded! [1 update]

An academic competition would normally not garner much attention.

After all, most people wouldn’t even know when the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) takes place.

But thanks to provocations from foreign websites and programs produced by the General Television Station, the ISC competition saw an unprecedented surge in popularity.

Especially the mysterious number one on the global leaderboard, who became the subject of rampant speculation on every social media platform about their true identity.

Someone who dominated the players from all other countries with a force like a thunderbolt, and it seemed they were just participating casually.

When Ying Zijin admitted to this, it naturally caused a sensation in the live broadcast room.

...

Every live broadcast room has its share of haters who deliberately set the pace.

Aside from some idle keyboard warriors, most are sent by competing streamers of the same type.

The account Ying Zijin registered, Chocolate Mousse, had only streamed 15 times and had never shown her face.

But even so, the popularity remained high.

Academic streams naturally have fewer viewers, with most people watching games, singing, or live shopping streams.

On the Shark Live Broadcasting Platform, there are only nine academic streams in total.

The first one to start setting the rhythm was sent by a streamer named “Witch Xiao Xiao”.

It had been a long time since Ying Zijin last streamed; aside from the old fans, there were a lot more new viewers.

Hearing her admit to being the global leaderboard’s number one, many were at a loss for words.

[This, although you are an academic streamer and need to boast for popularity, let’s forget about ISC.]

[I was thinking of learning something, but it turns out to be a braggart. I’m out, I’ll go watch Witch Xiao Xiao’s stream instead.]

This set off the old fans who had been following along.

[God, show these idiots, and swell their faces.]

[I’m telling you, if anyone deserves to be number one on the leaderboard, it’s only our God.]

They had watched Ying Zijin stream all the way and knew she was almost omnipotent.

“Hmm, wait a moment,” Ying Zijin said while twirling her pen, “Let’s finish today’s tasks first.”

She indeed had OCD and liked to do things in order.

With that, the barrage of comments continued to burst forth.

[Heh, she doesn’t have it. Would the global number one live stream? Do you think you’re Witch Xiao Xiao?]

Actually, ISC was limited to high school students and below.

But it was really beyond the capabilities of middle school students, and schools did not encourage participation.

Therefore, even if one hadn’t started high school yet, as long as the conditions were met, one could still register for ISC.

Witch Xiao Xiao became a streamer right after finishing middle school.

Of course, she couldn’t reach the global leaderboard, but she was ranked 898th in the Hua Country regional leaderboard.

To the netizens, this ranking was already quite high, given that as of now, the number of people from Hua Country participating in the ISC had reached one hundred and fifty thousand!

And most importantly, Witch Xiao Xiao was very attractive.

If you’re not watching a live stream for the face, then what are you watching for?

It was at this moment a dialogue box popped up in the live stream. _{freewёbnoνel.com}

[Witch Xiao Xiao has challenged you to a PK, do you accept?]

[Yes/No]

This was a new feature introduced by the Shark Live Broadcasting Platform, and many streamers used it to boost their popularity.

However, only the winning side would benefit, for if one lost, the popularity of their live stream would drop significantly.

Ying Zijin didn’t even look at it and casually closed it.

She laid out her paper, her voice distant, “Today we’ll talk about celestial bodies in space.”

[Not daring to accept even Xiao Xiao’s PK but daring to claim you’re the global number one, do you deserve it?]

The rabble-rousing haters couldn’t jump around anymore because the room admin promptly muted them.

As Ying Zijin started speaking, the dialogue box popped up again, relentlessly.

[Witch Xiao Xiao has challenged you to a PK. Winning this PK will grant you the opponent’s entire earnings from today’s tips, do you accept?]

[Yes/No]

Just as the fans were regretting not being able to see their God PK with other academic streamers, they saw the mouse on the live screen click the “Yes” button.

Immediately after, another box popped up.

[You have accepted the PK challenge, please get ready.]

The fans: ???

So it wasn’t that the God was too aloof to accept PKs, but rather there was no benefit in it?

But Witch Xiao Xiao, who had issued the PK, was also stunned for a moment. She quickly recovered, curled her lip, and scoffed disdainfully.

She thought Chocolate Mousse was some kind of god, but it turned out she was just a money-grubbing vulgarian.

Witch Xiao Xiao had started streaming this summer. She hadn’t watched Ying Zijin’s streams but had heard through the chat that there was a god-like streamer in the academic section, unmatched by anyone.

Her eyes were wide open, with a hint of ferocity.

Even with a beauty filter turned on, the persona of the beautiful hostess had collapsed.

In just a few seconds, the live stream’s popularity of fifty million plummeted by ten million, and it was still dropping.

Witch Xiaoxiao now found herself unable to stop the live stream, only able to watch helplessly as the number of her fans decreased one by one.

She finally realized that this was not a PK at all—it was a one-sided crushing defeat.

Instead of stepping on Ying Zijin to rise to the top, it was she who had lost her popularity.

Witch Xiaoxiao now deeply regretted it.

**

On the other hand, Ying Zijin was not affected in the slightest.

After completing the PK, she continued to explain problems, then casually added, “I won some money today, so I’ll draw 100 viewers later to give away midnight snacks.”

She thought Shark Live Broadcasting Platform’s feature was great, allowing her to earn money so easily.

The only regret Ying Zijin had was that she should not have solved the questions so quickly, scaring away other broadcasters and leaving no one willing to PK with her.

[Boohoo, deity, you solved it too fast. I didn’t even get a clear look at the questions.]

[I never liked that Witch Xiaoxiao from the start. She’s been bad-mouthing the deity ever since she began streaming. Can she even talk about Quantum Mechanics, like our deity can? Is she even worthy?]

Without the haters leading the charge, the fans quietly listened to the live stream.

Because it was her first time explaining the universe, Ying Zijin did so in simple terms, and all the fans were able to understand.

The one-and-a-half-hour live stream quickly came to an end.

When Ying Zijin was about to go offline, she remembered the promise she made to her viewers.

She took out her phone, opened the ISC quiz app, navigated to her personal profile, and placed it under the camera.

At that moment, all six million fans watching the live stream saw it.

Written clearly on the screen were three lines.

ID: Username Hidden

Region: Hua Country

Points: 3680 points

After this page was shown, the live streaming room exploded.

In no more than a few seconds, viewership reached an all-time high since the inception of Shark Platform.

Thirty-four million, eight hundred seventy thousand!
