What does it feel like to suddenly become famous?

Jiang Yunxi: Thanks for asking. I got a legendary five-kill and nobody noticed, but one day of trash talk made me famous everywhere. If you ask me, I regret it terribly.

One day, a major influencer on a certain short-video app received a submission for the Honor of Kings Eagle-Eyed Guardians.

In the video, during an in-game text chat, a player named JiangJiangJiangJiangJiangJiang was roasting three people at once:

"You should grow some mushrooms in your cellar. Of course, if you don't have a cellar, never mind."

"You know what your face looks like right now? Like element 51 on the periodic table."

"I'd suggest looking in the mirror when you have time. It'll explain a lot."

Every line was a classic, every word a gem.

At the end of the video, her three teammates were idling at the fountain, while she used Han Xin to cut off the minion waves, split-push, and steal turrets, then won the match in a 2v5. The victory screen appeared.

The video's caption read: Come here to learn how to play.

That meant learning how to insult people and how to play.

As soon as the video went live, it shot to number one in trending videos, and Jiang Yunxi became an overnight sensation.

On the surface, Lu Tianxin was a major celebrity in the entertainment industry. In private, however, he was a lousy but enthusiastic gaming addict.

After yet another losing streak in a game, Lu Tianxin happened to learn that you could hire someone to carry you. He immediately placed ten orders with the most expensive player on a certain service platform.

Lu Tianxin's life motto was: Expensive means good, and the most expensive means the best!

If this person's price was that high, their skills had to be top-notch!

Sure enough, this player was not only great at the game, but also great at insulting people on his behalf.

Lu Tianxin had planned to use the wicked power of money to keep this excellent player all to himself, but then the other person sent him an offer to team up:

"Hi, I'm a top jungler. I need a useless player to get carried. Can you play Yao?"

He could! He was great at it!

Upcoming novels

Upcoming Novel 1: Reborn as a Group Dance Streamer

Jiang Linyi was a top-tier star known throughout the industry for her professionalism as a singer and dancer. One day, she was reborn as a marginal group-dance streamer in a small guild on a livestreaming platform.

The original group had been streaming for a whole month, but their account was barely getting any traffic. Aside from the girl dancing in the center, who had managed to attract one wealthy admirer to send her gifts, the other four could barely scrape together enough gifts for a single sports car each day.

Just as the company was about to disband the group, Jiang Linyi transmigrated into her new life.

On Jiang Linyi's first day, the company's group-streaming account received over a hundred thousand yuan in gifts for the first time in a single day.

In her first month, Jiang Linyi personally scored ten million points in the company's guild competition.

Wealthy fan: Give her every exhibit! If someone else has it, she has to have it too!

Wealthy fan: I bet this little sister hasn't seen the new effects. Let me show you what you're missing!

Fans: No idea what's going on. Those wealthy fans just keep showering her with gifts.

As more and more wealthy fans joined the livestream, all kinds of flashy gifts poured in. Every day, the rankings turned into a contest to see who would become Yi's strongest number-one fan.

With her outstanding professional skills, Jiang Linyi raked in money at a dizzying pace, rising step by step from the center of the group to the guild's top streamer, and then to the platform's top streamer.

Jiang Linyi's name became synonymous across the internet with the strongest female streamer!

Upcoming Novel 2: I'm a Food Streamer in Ancient Times

Jiang Yurong transmigrated.

She faced a family of five in a bare-walled home, three already starved to death and the two little ones barely clinging to life. It was a disastrous start, but Jiang Yurong wasn't worried. As a suggestive-content streamer, she had a livestreaming System, her golden finger. She could exchange viewers' tips for food, so no matter how hellish the start, she could turn things around!

Who knew a bug in the System would switch her channel from beauty to food?

As someone hopeless in the kitchen, Jiang Yurong's vision went black. She could do suggestive content, but she couldn't even scrub a stove!

To keep herself and her younger siblings from starving, Jiang Yurong could only scrape by by completing the System's daily tasks.

She followed every step in the cooking videos to the letter, yet somehow ended up with a pile of blackened dishes! So Jiang Yurong turned her attention to the young scholar next door.

As expected, scholars were smart!

Jiang Yurong was overjoyed to see him perfectly reproduce the dishes from the cooking videos based only on her verbal instructions. Great! As long as she clung to this powerful ally, she could complete advanced tasks every day, and her family would soon be living comfortably!

Bai Heyu had been feeling a little troubled lately.

The eldest daughter of the Jiang family next door, Jiang Yurong, seemed to have grown much bolder since recovering from her illness.

She used to steal just one glance at him with eyes full of admiration. Now she dared to use borrowing his stove as an excuse to come over every day.

Did she think he didn't know that her family's stove was bigger and more convenient than his?

And although she could recite the precious recipes passed down through her family for generations, she claimed she couldn't cook and begged him to help. What a flimsy excuse!

Still, Miss Jiang was truly devoted to him. Bai Heyu thought he would have to study even harder and pass the imperial exams one day, so he wouldn't let her heartfelt affection go unreturned!

But she was still young, and coming to his house every day could harm her reputation. Shouldn't he arrange an engagement with her as soon as possible?

Genius disciple x useless master.

Theme: Love can make you a better person.
