Volume One, Chapter 11: The Carnival Count Competition

At the start of the PK, the other three streamers had already scored over a million points, but Kedi took the lead and was now in first place. Yu Yansui was at the bottom, and the big brothers hadn’t started voting yet.

[Manager Wan Feng: Let me see what kind of strength Kedi’s family has.]

[Manager King: Mm.]

[Manager Wan Feng: Old man, is your basic income enough? Otherwise, just give up.]

[Manager King: No problem, I can sell my house to keep voting.]

[Jiuli: It’s been a long time since I played in a match like this.]

“King brother, don’t tease Brother Wan Feng anymore, or he’ll be watching you like this later, haha.” Yu Yansui brought the cat plush closer to the camera.

[Jiuli: Little Biezhi looks like a real character.]

[Manager Wan Feng: Get lost, all of you, get lost.]

“Sui Sui sister, has your big brother started voting? Why don’t you squat down and fight? You can’t even get a single diamond, what are you playing at?” Kedi flicked the ash off her manicured nails disdainfully.

[King gifted the streamer 50 Diamonds Carnival gifts.]

Before Yu Yansui could respond, King’s Diamonds Carnival gifts poured in, and Yu Yansui instantly jumped to second place.

[Jiuli: Weren't you just observing?]

[Manager Wan Feng: Are you a dog? Who in this live room is more of a dog than you?]

[Manager King: Little girls aren’t suited for this kind of punishment.]

[Jiuli: Tsk.]

[Manager Wan Feng: All the good people are on your side, huh?]

“Got the guts? Let your big brother come over and try it!”

“Brother Wan Feng, Sui Sui wants Diamonds Carnival.”

[Wan Feng gifted the streamer 30 Diamonds Carnival gifts.]

[Jiuli: No shout for me?]

“Brother Jiuli wants Diamonds Carnival, heart symbol.”

[Jiuli gifted the streamer 10 Diamonds Carnival gifts.]

Maybe Yu Yansui shouted too easily, making Kedi even more unsettled. She raised the camera, stood up, and brought her face close to the lens, twisting her features, her somewhat masculine voice booming loudly. The effect was quite striking.

“I’ll count to three: three, two, one—Carnival!”

No one paid attention.

She started clapping loudly in front of the mic, the slaps echoing like the beating of Ansei waist drums, quite powerful.

“Our Kedi family can’t be so weak. Brothers and sisters, lend a hand, whatever you have, use it. Today, I, Kedi, am going head-to-head with this newcomer. Yun Yun, Cat Emperor, Sister Bailu, Brother Chao, lend a hand!”

“All brothers and sisters in the live room, follow Kedi’s rhythm, okay? I’ll count to three: three—two—one—diamonds! Carnival! Carnival!”

The effect was excellent. One after another, the Diamonds Carnival effects appeared on Kedi’s live screen. As a big streamer with five million followers, her big brothers and sisters were very supportive, helping her retake first place.

Qiaojia Ren and Lin Hang had privately told their big brothers not to vote anymore. This was clearly a personal duel between Kedi and Yu Sui Sui, just for some face points. The two tacitly opened their microphones but said nothing, quietly watching the drama unfold.

“How about it? You have 30 seconds to shout it out or squat down,” Kedi pointed at Yu Yansui, her expression arrogant.

Yu Yansui smiled sweetly and leaned close to the microphone. “Big brothers, keep charging forward. If anything happens, Sui Sui will run away.”

[Manager Wan Feng: Don’t get so close. Can’t I just send gifts?]

[Manager King: Be good, sit properly.]

[Jiuli: This face looks very kissable? Soft.]

[Manager Sang You: Recorded, will post it later to help the princess promote the stream.]

[Big brother, be brave and take responsibility if it goes wrong.]

[Is that a typo?]

[Manager Duo Yu: This is our style, haha.]

Yu Yansui’s live room exploded again with ten sets of Diamonds Carnival effects sent by big brothers. Some other streamers who disliked Kedi also called their big brothers to splash gifts in Yu Yansui’s room.

Kedi froze for a second but kept a calm expression. “Only fifteen shouts? That’s all your strength?”

Kedi switched to an intense PK battle tune, holding the microphone, flicking her hand, and making a “reverse seven” gesture in the live room, clicking her tongue on the roof of her mouth.

“Brothers and sisters, who online has our Kedi family ever feared? Fifteen Diamonds Carnival gifts to try to beat me—is that beating me? That’s insulting our brothers and sisters’ faces, insulting our family’s honor. Can we tolerate this?!”

“Step up and crush them! Who does she think she is?”

[Di Yun gifted Kedi 10 Diamonds Carnival gifts.]

Di Yun took the lead, and the live room was showered with a wave of carnival gifts again.

Seeing continuous gift effects, Kedi stood up and took a deep 90-degree bow. She bowed so hard that her wig fell off. She shrugged it off, pulled off the wig, tossed it aside, and ran her fingers through her hair, letting loose a cascade of soft, wavy curls.

“Thank you, Yun Yun, thank you Sister Bailu, thank you my Cat Emperor!”

“All the kindness you’ve shown Kedi, I keep it in my heart! Your friendship is as high as the mountains, as deep as the waters! Kedi will never forget!”

“All brothers and sisters who have supported Kedi, I will prove to you that I, Kedi, am worthy!”

Yu Yansui was stunned.

She was speechless.

So this is how you play it—take the essence and discard the dross. Got it, got it.

Yu Yansui’s live room:

[Princess’s expression went from confusion to agreement, haha.]

[666, is this right? Do you need a golden voice after the stream? Opposite side.]

[Who exactly is the audience for this kind of livestream?]

[Does it have emotional value?]

[The opposing side’s popularity is pretty high, 150,000 viewers.]

[Watching this makes my eyes go black over and over.]

[Kedi’s livestream content is just PK, every day PK.]

[Forgive me, I just don’t appreciate it—no showmanship, no talent, how did they get popular?]

[Kedi’s Diamonds Carnival count keeps rising.]

[It’s okay, we have wealthy supporters.]

After shouting, Kedi suddenly grabbed a large bucket of purified water from somewhere and drank it all down, her face flushed.

Yu Yansui looked at her small frame—no way, she couldn’t learn that. No thanks.

The three of them followed with a combo of ten Diamonds Carnival gifts.

Yu Yansui’s eyes sparkled, and she clasped her hands into a small fist. “Wow, big brothers treat Sui Sui like the mountains are high, like the waters are deep, wrapping Sui Sui up. Sui Sui is so happy, all of it is in my heart~ Love you all, mwah, mwah~”

That female streamer easily took the lead, even mimicking her playfully. Kedi was so angry she felt like exploding.

[Manager Wan Feng: Didn’t expect Sui Sui to have potential as a little green tea girl.]

[Manager King: Cute.]

[Jiuli: Naughty.]

[Tianxia Wushuang: Damn, that’s a huge cup of Bi Luo Chun tea.]

[Great, it’s green tea, we’re doomed.]

[The aroma of tea fills the air.]

[Streamer from Dongting Lake, so good at pretending (picking nose).]

[Stop it, stop it, recharge more, I’ll gift you (covering mouth).]

[Hehe, turns out I don’t hate green tea after all.]

[Green Tea Princess.]

“Brothers and sisters, Kedi can’t lose this round again! I’ve already lost twice. Fighting with Diamonds Carnival gifts is our specialty. If we lose in this, how can I survive in Seven Meow?! Where’s our family’s face?!”

Kedi shouted at the top of her lungs.

“There are only three opponents on the other side, brothers and sisters!! Our live room has 150,000 viewers and over a thousand people on the leaderboard. Let’s crowdfund, one Diamonds Carnival gift each!”

“Come on, Diamonds Carnival!”
