From Sidekick to Bigshot

The streamer was decent at the game. However, he could not guarantee a high score in a competitive match. And thus, he was not confident that he could win in such a situation.

If he couldn’t win the match, then he would be accused of intentionally playing with players at lower skill levels.

This would make him lose his fans.

If he lost his fans, who would donate money to him? His livelihood would be completely cut off.

And thus, to ensure his livelihood, he had asked people to challenge An Yang on the Internet. In addition, he searched for someone to make an accident happen to An Yang. He wanted to ensure that An Yang could not perform on the day.

At first, the male streamer refused to accept a substitute.

However, when he saw that the other person was a cute girl, he immediately relaxed.

Versing a cute girl would attract additional viewers to his stream. Furthermore, the little girl’s appearance and voice were quite adorable. This was bound to improve his popularity.

And thus, he decided to play against Jian Yiling.

And thus, the match began. The POV for both players could be seen on the streamer’s screen.

The opening minute of the match was quite uneventful. It was the calm before the storm.

However, three minutes in, the cute girl went berserk.

Five minutes into the match, the cute girl crushed the male streamer in terms of score.

Ten minutes into the game, the difference in score was huge. There was little hope for a turnaround.

When it reached fifteen minutes, the game was over. The male streamer had been utterly defeated.

When the match started, the male streamer was telling his fans that he was going to teach the little girl how to play the game. However, he was met with a notification that Jian Yiling had already secured a kill.

Then, the male streamer attempted to joke around. He wanted to save his face. However, by the time he finished speaking, Jian Yiling was already on a killing spree.

At the start of the match, everyone was joking around.

However, all the viewers were shocked. They began to type 666.

[Wait, this girl looks somewhat familiar!]

[Familiar? Are you for real?]

[Wait, you’re right! She’s from the team that made it to the finals of the Zerg Invasion tournament!]

[I watched the final though. There was no girl.]

[Nah. She’s from that team. However, for finals, she and another guy did not turn up for the match. And thus, they lost. They were flamed by the Internet!]

[Actually?! Wow, I shouldn’t judge someone by their appearance! I learned something today!]

[I just searched her up! It’s actually her! J10!]

Some viewers recognized Jian Yiling. She was an amazing and kick-ass female player from a few seasons ago.

However, at first, they failed to recognize her. After all, three years had passed. The team [Domination] had almost been forgotten.

In addition to that reason, the male streamer used a filter. This made Jian Yiling’s face appear even smaller than usual. It made her face out of proportion. Her looks on the stream were no match for her normal looks.

And thus, the viewers couldn’t help but comment: [How many filters did he put on? He made J10’s face look incredibly thin!]

The male streamer eventually came back from his shock.

When he saw the comments, he immediately found a suitable excuse for his defeat:

“Ahhh, that’s why she was so good at the game. She’s a professional player! In fact, this girl almost won the championship! This means that it’s quite normal for me to lose. On the other hand, the person who challenged me is such a loser! He pretends to be injured and then he asks a professional player to play the match! There’s no way that I can win!”
