Chapter 36 - No Lie, This Really is a Duel Between Newbies (Part 1)
The wind blew across the wasteland, and the whistling sound echoed in the ears. The sparse sunshine in the evening shone on the ground through the sparse clouds. In such desolation, a girl wearing a black robe stood among the grass blades ruffled by the wind.
The duel system blurs the images and voices of both sides.
What both could see were only a rough outline of each other.
Luo Bai's expression tensed. He felt a strange sense of familiarity with the other person but couldn't recall why at the moment.
However, that doesn't matter.
It's duel time!
With a snap, both sides started the duel and said in unison.
" " DUEL! " "
[FIRST TURN: BLUE SIDE!]
At the moment when the system announced the attack sequence, a
An eye pattern appears above the virtual dueling arena, with the number "1" displayed next to it.
Someone's watching?
A trace of confusion flickered in the eyes of both of them.
There's no room number in Ranked Duel. If someone wants to watch the battle, they can only go to the lobby and get randomly selected after "filtering".

[DUEL ENDS]
[YOU LOSE]
Chen Xinxin took off her helmet and looked at the prompts on the screen, feeling a surge of sadness in her heart.
After losing five matches in a row again, her gaze became somewhat dazed.
Her fingers tapped tiredly on the keyboard, her body trembling slightly. She kept adjusting her posture, trying to focus, but no matter how hard she tried, no matter how she adjusted her Deck, a sense of helplessness still engulfed her.
In the deep of the night, she didn't even dare to smash anything, just holding in her frustration.
Everyone on the team should be asleep.
The popularity of the livestream plummeted, leaving only a few hundred viewers. In the chat window, the remaining loyal fans sent out streams of comforting messages:
"Xinxin, how about we forget it?"
"It's not easy to rank up with
"Your luck is just too bad."
"Why don't we just call it a night? It's already late, and there are too many snipers."
Some loyal fans donated, and she improved her rank late at night. At 12 o'clock, she stood before the Platinum1-to-Diamond promotion match, thinking of winning this game and then going to sleep.
Two hours passed, she dropped to Platinum4.
She got sniped 3 times in a row by the same ID.
She and the viewers highly suspect that guy was peeping at her livestream.
Within such encouragements, there were also many people choosing to mock and ridicule her with malicious language, mocking her losing streak:
"Isn't it possible that the streamer is just that bad?"
"Can't even reach Diamond with
"Being bad at the Deck but still insisting with it."
"Triss next door has used
"Triss next door has used
"Triss next door has used
Words that swipe the screen to draw away people are very effective. The popularity of the live broadcast room dropped again, and the room manager immediately banned this person.
After all, the viewers prefer to watch strong people, and Chen Xinxin has no habit of showing off.
The online duel ranks from low to high are: Novice, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Master, and King.
As for those reaching King-rank, a different feature called "Star Rush" is implemented, where Duelists have no upper limit on the number of stars, which will be reset once a month.
Chen Xinxin clenched her hands into fists, feeling unwilling. She wanted to explain something and vent her anger, but in the end, she just held it in.
Raging for one's incompetence will only make her lose more fans.
On the contrary, it was those loyal fans who explained for her first:
"Xinxin, ignore them."
"You just don't have
"That's right, don't worry about them. Being rich doesn't make you better!"
"As for Triss, she's just a b*tch."
Hearing these comforting words, Chen Xinxin smiled in relief and said: "Thank you everyone~~ I'm fine."
Five million...
In fact, if she just told Shu Yu'er, given their relationship, the card would be on her account in half an hour.
However...
Chen Xinxin's eyes welled up with a hint of redness. She clenched her fists tighter and forced a choked smile, saying:
"Everyone, let's go to bed early."
Having been targeted for sniping, she's destined not to rank up tonight.
"Don't cry, Baby Xinxin, Mommy's here to hug you!"
"F*ck off, no one wants a male mother."
"See you tomorrow, bye~~"
Chen Xinxin chuckled at the barrage and was about to close the live stream room.
Just then, two super chat messages caught everyone's attention.
[Xinxin, why don't you go watch the newbies' duel?]
[If you don't want to duel at the moment, you can be the commentator to relax your mood.]
"Wow, bro, that's a great idea."
"I second this."
"Hahaha, it is quite interesting to watch the newbies play cards."
"Yeah. Last time, I saw a newbie playing
"Don't get me started on this. When I first started playing, I remembered trying to crash against the enemy monster with my
"You're even more rebellious."
(T/N: Most Lightsworns have the effect of sending the top of the user's Deck to the GY, allowing them to use graveyard effects and effects related to the GY. Meanwhile...)
Everyone in the chat recalled their unbelievable operations when they were newbies, and the barrage atmosphere actually became joyful.
With rewards and heated discussions, the popularity increased significantly, returning to over a thousand viewers.
Sensing a good topic, Chen Xinxin's eyes suddenly lit up.
As a professional streamer, she's still very sensitive to popularity.
"Let's get it started!"
Chen Xinxin said excitedly, pressing frantically on the keyboard with her hands.
Giving commentary on newbie duels and joking about their operations might boost her popularity.
Tens of thousands of viewers watching live is just around the corner!
Soon, Chen Xinxin put on her VR helmet again and came to the Duelist Hall———-
"What type of newbies do you want to see?"
Newbies are also divided into
"Of course, let's go for the pure
The comments all said in unison.
"Yes, yes, a complete novice who has never played a single game in
There's nothing more joyful than watching two newbies who have never played a game before, pecking each other.
"Okay, okay~~"
Chen Xinxin responded with a smile and pressed
Late at night, there are still more than 120,000 new first-time LIVE DUELS.
After all, this is Biantana, where Magic Cards and dueling reign supreme.
"How else do you want to filter?"
Chen Xinxin asked next, trying to satisfy the fans' voyeur desire as much as possible.
"From the Level 4 Fortress!"
"+1, Level 3 Fortress may not have a complete set of cards, while the newbies in the Level 5 or 6 Fortress ain't even fun."
"Okay..." Chen Xinxin murmured and continued to filter duels in which both parties were citizens of a Level 4 Fortress.
The viewing interface is suddenly much cleaner.
She glanced around, trying to find an interesting duelist ID to click on.
"La la la... Dun da dun..."
With a cheerful smile on her lips, Chen Xinxin looked around like she was shopping in a mall.
All of a sudden...
She didn't know if it was fate or not, but she caught a glimpse of a certain ID again. For a moment, her heart and lungs seemed to stop, as her eyes widened and the smile on her face froze, her brain seemingly glitching a bit.
"E- Everyone wait a moment."
Chen Xinxin took off the VR helmet hesitantly.
Suppressing her inner shock, she opened her supercomputer ring with trembling fingers, found Shu Yu'er's contact interface, and urgently sent her a message.
[Little mistress, quickly wake up!]
[The original wife is online!]
[It's in my live broadcast room, come and watch!]
