First Floor Top Laner Won't Give It, So I'll Feed, Let Me Drink Some Milk First!

As Chu Ran expected, his Weibo post immediately attracted a crowd of troublemakers and Imperial scum.

"Holy shit, it's been so long, I thought that bastard Ran was dead and buried."

"Streaming? I was just thinking I had nowhere to vent my anger. Brothers, let's get the reports ready."

"What are you even promoting here? Do you even have fans on Weibo? Do you think we'd give you our money?"

At this moment, an EDG operations specialist walked up to Chu Ran, a worried expression on her brow.

For Chu Ran, all he had to do was post on Weibo and stream.

But for them, the operations team, there were many more things to consider.

The pressure was immense!

EDG was already a hotbed of drama, and today they had brought in a "living ancestor" without a pay raise.

"Uh, beautiful lady, I know I'm handsome, but you don't have to stare at me like that. I'm just a baby who turned eighteen this year."

Chu Ran winked at the operations specialist, making her laugh despite herself.

"I don't do sister-brother relationships."

"Then I can rest easy. After all, as a boy, you need to protect yourself when you're out and about."

Hiss!

[Red Temperature Value +35]

The operations specialist's face showed annoyance. She felt like she was about to overheat and immediately got down to business. "I'm just here to remind you that for today's stream, just play the game. Figure out how to create some entertainment yourself, but absolutely, positively do not mention Uzi."

"Is it okay to mention Jian Zihao?"

Pfft!

"Neither is allowed!" The operations specialist was going crazy. Her beautiful face contorted, and a roar escaped her throat. "Chu Ran, my handsome little guy, I'm begging you, please don't stir up any trouble. After your Solo competition that day, my colleague and I worked three all-nighters."

"Oh, did Coach Abu give you overtime pay?"

What do you think?

"Anyway, just be careful. Also, the chat might be a bit rough when you start streaming, so manage your emotions."

"Don't worry, my emotions are very stable. I don't get 'red-hot' easily. Besides, as long as these viewers are willing to pay me, they can say whatever they want. I'm very generous." Chu Ran grinned, then added, "Next time you have to work overtime, I'll ask Coach Abu to give you overtime pay."

I'll give you overtime pay my ass!

The operations specialist didn't want to talk to Chu Ran anymore; he was too infuriating.

After the operations specialist left, Abu also came over to Chu Ran. His main purpose was to observe the effect of Chu Ran's first day of streaming.

None of the players in their club were good at streaming.

Ming Kai had the highest stream popularity, but he was too reserved on stream, like a silent doll. The popularity in his stream was purely carried by his own traffic.

Another one was Scout. His streams didn't have much entertainment value, but many "little fairies" showered him with gifts.

"Stay calm later. I've arranged for an operations specialist to be your moderator. We'll mute any bad comments for you."

"You can rest assured. There are very few people in this world who can break my mental defenses."

At this moment, Meiko suddenly leaned in. "Brother Ran, look at this. A son gambles, and his mother goes out to serve food to help him pay off his gambling debts."

"Get lost!"

"And this one, he's short 100,000 yuan to save his wife."

"Tian Ye, do you believe I'll make you wear your thermal underwear inside out tonight?"

"Didn't we agree you wouldn't break my mental defenses?"

After some playful banter, Chu Ran finished setting up his stream and started it, queuing up with Deft on the Korean server.

Huya Live Stream.

The stream, titled "Welcome All Tough Guys to Duel," reached a terrifying several hundred thousand viewers as soon as it started.

Various greetings to Chu Ran popped up like mushrooms after rain. The operations team was overwhelmed; they couldn't possibly ban them all.

Almost all of them were haters!

Seeing this scene, Chu Ran smiled and greeted the countless viewers in the stream.

"Hello everyone, I'm EDG's top laner, Easy. Thank you to all the fans for your support. Today, I'm streaming Korean server Challenger queue with Deft. New friends might not know Deft or me."

"Let me introduce myself. Deft, the runner-up ADC from Samsung Blue, who dominated the world's number one ADC in Season 5 and Season 6. As for myself, Easy, the All-Star Solo tournament champion, I also defeated the world's number one ADC in a Solo competition."

"So, the strength of both of us is beyond doubt. Tonight, we'll hunt to our heart's content on the Korean server. You can also learn a lot about high-elo gameplay and strategies."

As soon as he spoke, Abu and the operations specialist beside him were stunned.

Didn't they tell him not to mention Uzi?

He started by mentioning the world's number one ADC?

The operations specialist gave Chu Ran a look. Chu Ran turned back and shrugged, looking a little wronged.

Where did he mention Uzi? What, is the world's number one ADC Uzi?

In an instant, the barrage of comments completely broke through.

"Are you f***ing kidding me! Ran, are you sick?"

"What a piece of trash, still riding Little Dog's coattails, no shame at all."

"666666, bro, don't say anything else, ten bucks is my token of appreciation."

"I can't take it anymore, the first thing he says is Jian Zihao."

"??? The trolls are going wild, the world's number one ADC is Jian Zihao?"

"Holy s***! That's right, it's spot on! Accurate! Hits the nail on the head!"

Seeing the dense barrage of criticism, Chu Ran revealed a sunny smile. He hadn't intended to provoke the Imperial Guard further.

But if they were going to come at him, what could he do?

"Riding Little Dog's coattails? What are you talking about, what temperature was his shower water today?"

"Besides, what championship does he have that I need to ride his coattails for?"

Instantly, everyone sitting next to Chu Ran was shocked, and the operations lady's vision went black.

She wanted to quit.

This was unmanageable!

As expected, after Chu Ran said that, the livestream chat exploded.

"66666! Genius, an absolute genius!"

"Your nationality is gone, bro."

"I can't fing believe this, Ran, you piece of s, are you saying a Solo tournament champion counts as a champion?"

"What? A Solo tournament champion doesn't count? Then who were the brainless idiots hyping up Uzi to win the Solo tournament before the matches?"

"When Jian Zihao wins the Solo tournament, he's top-tier, but when he doesn't, he's trash. The Imperial fans really understand double standards."

"God, 'what temperature was Uzi's shower water today' – this sentence will become scripture!"

"What championship did the world's ADC win? I can't find it!"

"You haters make me sick, people like Ran will never reach Little Dog's level!"

"Little Dog has beaten all ADCs into submission, except for the mouths of haters like Ran."

The livestream's popularity grew more and more intense. The operations staff couldn't handle it anymore and quickly cut off Chu Ran's microphone, their eyes practically pleading.

"Please, take it easy."

"They came looking for trouble, are you blaming me?" Chu Ran shrugged, looking somewhat helpless.

Abu also had a headache. He wanted to see Chu Ran's livestream effect, but he didn't expect the effect to be this explosive within minutes of the stream starting.

"Huya has issued a warning. Little Ran, just stream peacefully, don't pay attention to these comments."

"Oh!"

Chu Ran nodded, then turned around and enabled 'Fans Only' chat.

This immediately caused many of the constantly cursing Imperial Zá to freeze up.

You f***ing kidding me!

This is so disgusting!

You have to follow Weibo to comment, and now you need a fan badge in the livestream.

"Alright, I won't talk to you guys anymore. You're too enthusiastic, I can't keep up with the comments. It's better now, but why is no one talking?"

"No way, my good sir? You all claim to protect your idol, but your idol is actually not even worth a fan badge in your eyes. So your idol's value in your hearts isn't that great either."

Hiss—!

When Chu Ran said that, countless Imperial fans who remained in his livestream felt the temperature rising continuously.

Chu Ran's livestream status also attracted the attention of Ming Kai and others. Their faces were filled with astonishment.

If this wasn't genius, they couldn't imagine who else could be called a genius.

Using his life to create livestream content, this was it.

At this moment, Abu gave Chu Ran countless thumbs-ups in his heart.

He saw a rising livestream superstar. Even if Chu Ran didn't perform well in the upcoming LPL official league, he, Abu, would keep Chu Ran at EDG. EDG needed talented people like him who could create engaging content.

In time, it wouldn't be a problem to punch Douyu's Wu Wu Kai and kick Panda's PDD!

Just as the livestream's popularity was heating up, Chu Ran and Deft were matched into a game.

As soon as they entered, the player who was originally assigned to support at the first pick immediately spouted a string of Korean.

"Hyeokyu hyung, what is he saying?"

"Top lane, or I'll feed!"

"That harsh? Forget it, I'll give it to him. Hyeokyu hyung, I'll support you then, I happen to have a really fun support."

"Huh? Then you play." Deft was taken aback and quietly picked EZ.

Many Imperial fans in the livestream chat were laughing heartily, finally seeing Chu Ran get flustered.

However, the smiles on their faces immediately vanished.

Chu Ran's roar pulled everyone's blood pressure up.

"Coach Abu, get me a bottle of AD Calcium Milk!"

"I'm a bit tired, I'll drink some milk first!"

Bang!

Abu stumbled, and Meiko, who was drinking water, choked directly, water spurting from his nostrils.

Ming Kai looked terrified, his heart churning with disbelief. Could you stream like this?

At this very moment, at the RNG club, Uzi, his face flushed red, closed Chu Ran's livestream and punched Xiao Hu's thigh again, eliciting a yelp of pain.

Meanwhile, the Imperial viewers in the livestream, who had stopped their insults when Chu Ran enabled subscriber-only chat, could no longer hold back.

[Consider this money your funeral expenses, Chu Ran scum!]

[BYD trash, selling out their integrity for money.]

[The LPL is truly ruined. Little Dog brought so much honor to the LPL, and now a newcomer is slandering him like this, and they won't even ban him.]

[Truly disheartening. I believe anyone who has watched Little Dog's games wouldn't be like this Chu Ran scum.]

"Hey, are you guys even being reasonable? What's wrong with me drinking AD Calcium Milk? Why are you saying I'm attacking Uzi again? Don't I have any rights? Is drinking milk his patent now?"

At this, the EDG club erupted in laughter. The barrage of comments and gifts in Chu Ran's livestream flew wildly.

[Amazing, but I can only give you 98.4 points because I can only say you have 1.6!]

[I'm dead, man. You don't seem to say anything, but you seem to say everything.]

[I'll go first, milk break at halftime!]

[So envious of Uzi's treatment. He can drink milk when a game gets intense.]

[Exactly. It's unfair. Only Uzi is allowed to drink milk, but Chu Ran isn't allowed to drink AD Calcium?]

Seeing Abu hand him a bottle of AD Calcium Milk, Chu Ran raised an eyebrow. "Hey, Coach Abu, why just one bottle? If the viewers see this, they'll think we at EDG can't afford it. One bottle for everyone, my treat today!"

Instantly, Chu Ran downed the AD Calcium Milk, and the livestream's popularity surged even further. He then picked Twitch as support and directly started trash-talking Deft.

Fortunately, he had foreseen this and picked EZ. He knew Chu Ran was up to something.

He seemed harmless on the surface, but he was full of schemes.

Meanwhile, at the Snake club base.

Zz1tai was startled by the opposing team's lineup. "Holy crap, Twitch support, who is this genius?"

"Easy, I'm watching his livestream."

"It's Chu Ran scum, that makes sense. He probably doesn't even play support and is just here to annoy people."

Zhu Kai looked at Zz1tai and said, "You should start a livestream too. It's a good way to catch the heat. He's incredibly popular right now."

"That might not be good," Zz1tai said in a slightly effeminate tone. He hadn't evolved into the abstract "Boy" he would become later.

"Didn't you say your Viktor was trash? This is a perfect opportunity to leverage the hype and show the audience the strength of our new Snake mid-laner."

"Oh." Zz1tai nodded, then glanced at the livestream on Zhu Kai's phone and saw Chu Ran drinking AD Calcium Milk.

He suddenly felt thirsty too, looking at Zhu Kai with a hint of longing in his eyes.

"Team Zhu, can you heat up a cup of milk for me?"
