Marco Polo defeats the BOSS!
Zhou Keyu was overjoyed, "I got it! I got Exalted Emperor!"
The team's voice chat was filled with the excited shouts of teammates.
"Next, I will be launching an attack in Gundam form!"
Emperor Marco rides the Supreme God's Armor, unleashing his ultimate move with his mechanical arms outstretched and a roar to the heavens. A wave of dark energy capable of destroying everything sweeps across the King's Canyon, instantly reducing the enemy's Silver Dragon, Phoenix Mountain Lord, and Tai Sui to half health.
"Follow me and we'll push down their crystal in one fell swoop!"
"Understood, Captain!"
Under the cover of the Supreme Divine Dominion's Exalted Emperor, the group advanced with unstoppable momentum, pushing all the way to the enemy's crystal base.
The text chat interface scrolls.
Silver Dragon: Don't push, don't push, Captain, give me a chance.
Mountain Lord: Holy crap, this mech's damage is way too overpowered! A single small skill took away half my health. This is outrageous!
Phoenix: Damn it! You're lucky, Exalted Emperor. I'm sure I'll snatch the BOSS, Supreme Divine Dominion, next round.
The enemy's crystal exploded with a deafening roar.
game over.
Zhou Keyu looked like he hadn't had enough. "I have to say, this 10v10 Divine Prayer Battlefield mode is pretty fun."
At this moment, the number of viewers in the live stream reached a peak of 2 million, and the public chat was filled with a dense, overwhelming barrage of comments.
"Holy crap! Exalted Emperor is airing?"
"It wasn't the veteran streamer Exalted Emperor who started the stream. It was a new streamer named Xiang Yang who had the title of a member of the Imperial Crown. He happened to be friends with Exalted Emperor and was pulled into a 10v10 game room."
"Are Imperial Crown and Sovereign Dominion on good terms?"
"Things used to be great. Imperial Crown even helped the Supreme God of the Exalted Emperor win the title of Overlord. But recently Imperial Emperor and Exalted Emperor have been secretly competing, and the relationship between the two teams has dropped to a freezing point."
"Dude, how did you add Exalted Emperor as a friend?"
"Looking at your profile, you only have one Mulan national standard ranking. With that kind of skill, how could you get Exalted Emperor's friend spot? You probably bought it."
Seeing the screen filled with doubtful comments.
Zhou Keyu, without batting an eye, brought up a fabricated story. "When Exalted Emperor was still a new streamer, I was matched with him in ranked games. He thought I played Mulan well and added me as a friend."
The viewers in the live stream suddenly realized what was going on.
A level 50 spender asked in the live chat, "Then why didn't you join Sovereign Dominion, but instead joined Imperial Crown?"
"I prefer the emperor to the 'Exalted Emperor Imperial Emperor '."
Zhou Keyu, half-jokingly.
He knew very well that the current popularity of the live stream would definitely attract the attention of Imperial Crown's top executives, and he had to seize the opportunity to show his loyalty.
Zhou Keyu said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "My purpose in joining the Imperial Crown Team is very pure: to become an apprentice of the Imperial Emperor God, learn game skills, and become a super god admired by millions of competitive players!"
A level 50 spender asked in the chat, "Did you join Imperial Crown just to learn game skills from the Imperial Emperor?"
Zhou Keyu made no secret of his ambition, "I also have ideals and aspirations. I want to be promoted to a core member of Imperial Crown, assist Imperial Emperor in managing the team, and strive to defend Imperial Crown's King of Glory's title as the number one team!"
A short while later.
A message popped up in the background.
[ Imperial Crown Team ] (Official Blue V Verified): You're Xiang Yang, the streamer signed by Imperial Crown? Are you interested in joining the Emperor's Imperial Alliance?
"It's actually attracted the attention of the Imperial Alliance's higher-ups."
Zhou Keyu was secretly delighted. The Imperial Alliance was a division of the Imperial Crown Team, consisting of nine teams. Each Imperial Alliance leader was a core member and was the backbone of the Imperial Crown Team, representing the absolute top-tier strength.
[ Xiang Yang ]: Which Imperial Alliance can I join?
Zhou Keyu's heart raced.
The Imperial Alliance also have varying strengths. The most powerful Imperial Alliance are the " Wei Sheep Alliance," " Si She Alliance," and " Wu Horse Alliance," led by the Triple Ultimate Uncrowned Emperor. Anyone who joins them is almost guaranteed to become an elite member of the Imperial Crown.
"Ideally, we could join an alliance led by the Uncrowned Emperor, or even the Uncrowned King; the absolute minimum is an alliance led by the Uncrowned Overlord."
Russian.
[ Imperial Crown Team ]: Wu Horse Alliance.
Zhou Keyu was stunned. " The Wu Horse Alliance led by Jueying, the vice-captain of the Imperial Crown?"
"President, what should this issue's club column be titled? The last interview with senior Su Hang generated a lot of buzz among teachers and students. How about we interview some other outstanding graduates?"
Jiangcheng No. 1 High School, Journalist Agency.
[ Lin Ying ] put away her phone, smiling warmly, and said, "It's possible, but can we find a graduate more outstanding than Senior Su Hang?"
"How could this possibly be found!" The girl with the Wanzi hairstyle clenched her fists, exclaiming in a daze, "Senior Su Hang is the strongest school heartthrob in the history of Jiangcheng No. 1 High School, excelling in all five aspects: morality, intelligence, physical education, aesthetics, and labor."
"Aside from being too aloof, she has no flaws."
"So what content should we choose as the theme for the newspaper?"
The White Fatty sighed heavily. He idly flipped through his history textbook, and when he turned to the section on Japan history, a sudden inspiration flashed into his mind.
"Hey? President, how about we write this issue of the company newsletter on the theme of Japan folk culture!"
Lin Ying was slightly taken aback. " Japan folk culture?"
"They're just Japan folk tales about ghosts and monsters," the White Fatty said, counting on his fingers as if he knew them by heart, "Like the monsters from the Nurarihyon ( Night Parade of a Hundred Demons ), [Nurarihyon], [ Great Tengu ], [ Xue Ji ]..."
Lin Ying exclaimed in astonishment, "Even if the advisor agrees to such a bizarre topic, the school leaders would never allow it!"
The White Fatty winked and said, "Once the deed is done, the school leaders will have no choice but to allow it!"
Lin Ying said helplessly, "You've really shown me how to play the game by acting first and asking questions later."
soon.
The three reached a consensus on choosing the Japan Night Parade of a Hundred Demons as their subject matter.
With her Wanzi in a bun, she put on her glasses and went online to research. " The Night Parade of a Hundred Demons has a hundred monsters; it's unrealistic to include them all in the newspaper. We can only include one at most. Which one should we choose?"
"Is there even a question?" the White Fatty replied without hesitation. "Of course, it's the most powerful monster king, Nurarihyon."
" Nurarihyon?"
The Wanzi clicked on Baidu Photos and shuddered, "That cunning old man looks like he has the word 'sly' etched on his forehead. What an ugly monster!"
"The uglier, the more eye-catching," the White Fatty said dismissively. "He's the king of monsters, do you expect him to be handsome enough to conquer the entire earth?"
"But it can't be this ugly!" The girl with the Wanzi pinched her nose, looking uncomfortable. "President, come take a look."
Lin Ying stepped forward, bent down to look at the computer screen, her dark eyes calm and still, revealing a tranquility beyond her years.
"President, isn't Nurarihyon ugly?"
Lin Ying touched her nose and laughed, "It's absolutely hideous!"
" Xue Ji is beautiful but freezing," the girl with the Wanzi suggested. "Why don't we choose Xue Ji?"
"No!"
The White Fatty slammed his fist on the table and shouted, "Choose Nurarihyon!"
The girl with the Wanzi hairstyle refused to back down, saying, "I choose Xue Ji!"
"Choose Nurarihyon!"
Choose Xue Ji!
The White Fatty and the girl with the Wanzi hairstyle were arguing fiercely, their faces flushed red.
"President, which monster do you think we should choose?"
The two of them looked at Lin Ying at the same time.
Choose Nurarihyon.
The White Fatty exclaimed excitedly, "YES!"
The girl with the Wanzi hairstyle asked, bewildered, "Why, President? You just said Nurarihyon was ugly beyond belief!"
"Because I suddenly realized..."
Lin Ying smiled and said, "My alternate QQ account's anime profile picture looks like... Nurarihyon."
"Ah?"
