Chapter 171 - Challenging the Top Ten Experts in the World

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When Chu Luo went to the hotel, only Wang Mingtao was playing games in her suite.

When Wang Mingtao saw her, he smiled and greeted her, “Sister Chu, you’re here.”

Chu Luo asked, “Are the seniors still not awake?”

“No,” Wang Mingtao said. “I knocked on their door after I called you. Senior Tang opened the door and told me that his head was hurting, then he went back to sleep.”

“Did you get the housekeeper to prepare hangover soup for them?”

“Yes, they just finished drinking.”

Chu Luo nodded and went to the bedroom. When she came out, she saw Wang Mingtao shouting angrily, “F*ck!”

Puzzled, Chu Luo walked over. “What’s wrong?”

“Sister Chu, look at what’s written here.”

Chu Luo looked over. Wang Mingtao had opened a webpage. In the past two days, the topic on the webpage had definitely been about the bet that Chu Luo had initiated.

At that time, only a small portion of people had bet on “Phoenix Skies Legend” winning. However, nearly 500,000 people had bet on them losing, and in particular, many of them were bosses.

Therefore, now that “Phoenix Skies Legend” had won, there were plenty who were jealous and unconvinced, and they created posts to slander them.

“I think that ‘Phoenix Skies Legend’ must have connections in ‘Battle of Lightyears.’ Otherwise, how could ‘Phoenix Skies Legend’ have won?”

“I’ve never believed that ‘Phoenix Skies Legend’ could win.”

“At that time, a mysterious person placed a bet of four billion yuan. Maybe it was a competition between the upper echelons of ‘Battle of Lightyears.’ Without covert operations, how could someone have bet such a ginormous amount? Four billion yuan! It’s not like it was four hundred yuan or four thousand yuan!”

“[Bai Ling] has always been wearing a mask. I think it’s a gimmick of ‘Battle of Lightyears.’ It wants to use the character of [Bai Ling] to advertise.”

“Maybe [Bai Ling] is a woman from a certain upper echelon in ‘Battle of Lightyears.’ That’s why she made it to the finals and got first place.”

“It must be. Otherwise, why would [Bai Ling] disappear as soon as the competition ended?”

…

Wang Mingtao got angrier the more he looked at the posts. “These people are simply sore losers. They even made Sister Chu sound so awful. I can’t take it anymore. I’m about to be angered to death.”

“What are you angry about?”

Chu Luo calmly walked to her seat and sat down. She said, “Since these people aren’t convinced, let’s make them submit.”

“Sister Chu, what are you going to do?” Wang Mingtao quickly tilted his head and looked at her screen.

Chu Luo quickly logged into the game and bought ten world horns, then rapidly typed away.

“I’m at the PK field. If you’re not convinced, come and PK.”

The effects of the World Horn were amazing. After the ten horns sounded, all the players who were playing “Battle of Lightyears” knew.

Instantly, the news on the world channel rolled at a dazzling speed.

“Gosh! [Bai Ling] is too arrogant!”

“Right now, everyone is guessing that she is a woman who’s one of the higher-ups in the ‘Battle of Lightyears’ gaming company. What does she mean by declaring war on everyone so quickly? Is she feeling guilty?”

“Ever since I saw the various analysis posts on the Internet, I don’t believe that [Bai Ling] is real. Since she wants to court death, there’s no need to be polite to her, experts.”

“Who knows if the person sitting opposite you is that woman with the mask? Maybe she’d hired a stunt double.”

“Who knows if the people inside ‘Battle of Lightyears’ will deliberately go easy on her?”

…

“That’s too much!” Wang Mingtao was so angry that smoke was rising from his head. “These people are too filthy-minded!”

“Hmph!”

Chu Luo snorted.

At this moment, the second-ranked player in the world, [Linebarrel], sent a world message.

“[Bai Ling], I’m willing to accept your challenge.”

Then, the third place, the fourth place… all the way to the tenth place, they issued a PK challenge at the same time.

The world channel instantly fell silent.

Just as everyone was saying “f*ck” in their hearts, an unexpected player name appeared in the world news.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

This person also sent a message.

[Y]: “I accept the challenge.”

...

“D*mn, did I see wrongly? It’s God [Y]!”

“Oh my god! Could it be that God [Y] can’t stand watching [Bai Ling] and the upper echelons of ‘Battle of Lightyears’ scheming behind the scenes? He’s planning to teach [Bai Ling] a lesson.”

“Let alone God [Y], I think [Bai Ling] won’t even be able to win against [Van Site Bin], who is ranked tenth.”

“That’s right. These people are from all over the world. All of them relied on their own abilities to climb up the world expert rankings. If [Bai Ling] is playing as an MC and isn’t going to PK^, they definitely won’t be able to win.”

“In order to be fair, we strongly request for [Bai Ling] to play video games with the microphone turned on.”

“Right, we strongly request for that.”

These words quickly appeared on the screen.

“Sister Chu, these people are too much! What should we do?”

Chu Luo didn’t answer Wang Mingtao’s question and typed on the keyboard.

[Bai Ling]: “Sure, I can turn on the video and the microphone. If I lose, I’ll give everyone the 1.75 billion yuan I’d placed into the bet.”

[Bai Ling]: “If I win, everyone who has slandered me on the Internet, turn on their videos and microphones and apologize to me on the World Forum!”

...

“Sister Chu, you’re too ruthless!”

Wang Mingtao looked at the world channel that had instantly become so quiet that there wasn’t a single message. He admired Chu Luo’s domineering aura a lot but was also a little worried. “Sister Chu, aren’t we making a big bet by doing this?”

“You don’t have faith in me?”

Chu Luo tilted her head and glanced at him. The strong confidence in her eyes instantly infected Wang Mingtao.

“I do.”

Chu Luo curled her lips. Her mental strength had reached the point where she could control anything. It was just an online game. As long as she wanted to, she could challenge all the experts in the top 100 in one go.

It took almost a minute for the world news to return to normal.

Everyone said that [Bai Ling] was too arrogant. They were certain that [Bai Ling] would lose, so they all agreed to her request.

“Hmph! These people agreed so readily. Sister Chu, slap their faces swollen.” At this point, Wang Mingtao suddenly thought, “Sister Chu, if you win, what if they go back on their words?”

“Then I’ll upload their IDs one by one and have them be criticized. I’ll let them know what real online violence is.”

“Tsk… Sister Chu, your move is even more ruthless! But I like it!”

Chu Luo was about to turn on the video and microphone when she said to Wang Mingtao, “Come opposite me.”

“Why?” Wang Mingtao wanted to stand behind her and watch.

Chu Luo glanced at him. “Do you want to be criticized by everyone?”

Wang Mingtao was stunned for a moment before he laughed like a husky. “Sister Chu, are you concerned about me? I’m so touched.”

Chu Luo: “…Idiot!”

Chu Luo waited for Wang Mingtao to go opposite her. She returned to the bedroom and took out her mask. Then, she entered the PK arena and activated PK mode.

The first person to enter was [Van Site Bin], who was ranked tenth.

Chu Luo turned on the video and microphone.

[Van Site Bin]: “Bai Ling, nice to meet you.”

[Bai Ling]: “Nice to meet you. Let’s begin.”

As soon as Chu Luo finished speaking, the two of them started fighting.

Powerful skills coupled with impressive operations made everyone stare at the game screen. As Chu Luo’s fingers rapidly flew across the keyboard, the viewers were dazzled by the powerful special effects of the skills that kept appearing on the screen, and their hearts were beating rapidly and slowly because of Chu Luo’s dancing fingers.

Half an hour later.

System Notification:

“Congratulations to player [Bai Ling] for defeating the tenth expert on the world ranking, [Van Site Bin], and successfully taking over his position.”

...

“Holy shit!”

“How could I have forgotten that this is the gala period of ‘Battle of Lightyears’? As long as one dares to challenge an expert on the world rankings, one can take over his position after the challenge is successful.”

“[Bai Ling] actually defeated [Van Site Bin]. She must have gotten lucky. I don’t believe it!”

“Could it be that the game team went easy on her?”

At this moment, [Van Site Bin]’s voice was heard. “[Bai Ling], I’m convinced by your operating skills. Next, I’ll give the PK field to the others. Good luck. I’ll keep watching you PK with the other nine people.”

Then, he added, “I’ll help [Bai Ling] clarify. Her operation just now was all down to her real ability. As a world expert, I can tell if the system went easy on her.”

As soon as [Van Site Bin] finished speaking, someone else said something like,?‘Maybe he was bought off.’

Chu Luo said, “I’ll make it clear one more time. If the truth still can’t shut some people up, then just wait. I’ll pull out all those people. When the time comes, I’ll have you guys come here to PK with me face-to-face.”

...

Chu Luo once again made the world channel fall silent.

[Bai Ling]: “The PK continues.”

The next to enter was the ninth place, [Smallest].

Then, Chu Luo let all the players in “Battle of Lightyears” experience what a god-like operation ability was, along with the speed of growth when faced with a strong opponent.

Today, all the players weren’t in the mood to play games, and they had lost track of time. All of them stared at the game characters on the screen, as well as at the mysterious girl whose video had been turned on throughout the PK challenges.

Every time the system announced the ranking of the one whom [Bai Ling] would take over, everyone subconsciously cheered and congratulated her.

In the end, no one said that [Bai Ling] was a woman from the upper echelon of “Battle of Lightyears.” Her actions subdued everyone.
