Chapter 45: Chapter 43 Liu Yuanbo, are you using a female account?

"The team is in position," Liu Yuanbo sent the message.

Tonight, to help Wu Li climb the rankings, Bo Yuan Company had arranged for ten people. Aside from Liu Yuanbo being the main force, the other nine would take turns before Liu Yuanbo’s appearance, warming up the scene for Wu Li and attracting an audience in advance. If they could lure other wealthy patrons into the game, then Liu Yuanbo could reduce his contribution.

"Hardworking Life has gifted the host Mo Yin number one: Host V587!"

A rocket appeared on the screen, the second most expensive gift on the Mo Yin Platform, valued at 1,428 yuan.

"Thank you for the reward, Hardworking Life. This is still my first time seeing a rocket in the live broadcast," Wu Li laughed, guessing that one of Liu Yuanbo’s people had taken action.

In the world of live streaming, male hosts differ from female hosts. Female hosts can act cute or seductive to stimulate the protective or possessive instincts of male viewers, thus encouraging them to give generously; but it’s much harder for male hosts to receive rewards. One reason is the big disparity in the male-to-female viewer ratio, and another is that male hosts find it hard to trigger the desire to spend money.

Among the famous hosts on the Mo Yin Platform, only two or three male hosts are in the top ten earners, which shows the gap.

In modern society, women are willing to spend money on male celebrities, while men are more likely to spend on female hosts. Everyone has a clear role.

With one rocket gift, the atmosphere in Wu Li’s live broadcast instantly heated up, and various gifts started flooding the screen. Wu Li didn’t know which were from his own people, but the effect seemed good. In just a short while, his ranking on the hourly chart had risen to 33rd.

However, most rankings adhere to the "80/20 rule"; if you’re not in the top ten, the differences in other rankings aren’t that significant.

"Let me tell you guys something." As the number of people in the live broadcast room was approaching thirty thousand, Wu Li started to talk business.

"Qi City is holding an Extreme Martial Arts Tournament, MMA rules, and I have already signed up to compete."

As soon as he said this, countless questions flooded the comments.

"Wow, when does it start?"

"Where can we watch it? Can’t wait!"

"MMA! Finally, someone practicing Traditional Martial Arts is stepping up to the challenge!"

"Is the host planning to become a professional fighter in the future?"

...

Most people were encouraging and cheering, but of course, there were snide comments:

"Blowing hot air about Traditional Martial Arts every day, what era is this? Scientific training and in-depth understanding of the human body are the strongest fighting skills. Traditional Martial Arts is outdated."

"Got cocky after beating one amateur? Daring to compete in MMA, do you even know any ground skills? Is that in Traditional Martial Arts?"

...

To those comments, Wu Li for the moment held back from responding. He had already talked enough about Traditional Martial Arts, now he just wanted to do something practical to respond to these people.

However, regarding ground skills, Wu Li did want to say a couple of things.

"Traditional Martial Arts do have ground techniques, just not many. For example, Earth Skill Fist, also called Dog Boxing, is a kind of imitative boxing that mainly involves falling, lunging, flipping, rolling, drilling, and twisting actions on the ground, and it’s very similar to Brazilian Jiu Jitsu; besides that, there is also Ground Fist. Qi Jiguang adopted the Rolling Knife and Rolling Dragon Spear to fight against pirates back in the day, which evolved into Ground Lying Fist without the weapons."

"Traditional Martial Arts mostly originate from the battlefield, derived from weapon combat, so there are not many ground techniques, and they are not widely disseminated, because there are seldom ground skirmishes on the battlefield. Imagine tens of thousands of soldiers rolling around on the ground; that scene, emmmm..."

Wu Li explained the situation with ground techniques in a joking manner. He definitely had thoughts about ground skills since he had signed up for an MMA competition; he had to prepare in advance, as he couldn’t guarantee he would resolve the fight standing up.

Regarding how to deal with ground skills, Wu Li planned to focus on learning Earth Skill Fist, Ground Fist, and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu from online resources over the following week, and then directly exchange for these Martial Arts Skills using the system.

[Lv20 Sister is a Fierce Woman enters the live broadcast room]

"Sister is a Fierce Woman has gifted the host Heart of the Universe: Good luck in the competition!"

Heart of the Universe is the most expensive gift on the Mo Yin Platform, valued at 2,698 yuan.

Wu Li was shocked. Was this Liu Yuanbo’s doing? But why was he using a female account?

"A fierce woman rewards the anchor Heart of the Universe: I saw your match with Ren Donglai."

"A fierce woman rewards the anchor Heart of the Universe: You fought very well!"

"A fierce woman rewards the anchor Heart of the Universe: Traditional Martial Arts has been all talk for so many years, but finally, someone who can actually fight has arrived."

"A fierce woman rewards the anchor Heart of the Universe: Keep it up; I’m rooting for you!"

The comment section was shocked, as she dropped five Hearts of the Universe in a row, one for each sentence, truly a display of uninhibited wealth!

"Holy shit, sis, you are really fierce!"

"Here comes the tycoon!"

"Is this the prelude to financially supporting the anchor?"

"Sis, take me with you too, I don’t want to try anymore!"

...

Wu Li was also stunned. From the messages, it didn’t seem like Liu Yuanbo was the one doing it. And sure enough, Liu Yuanbo sent a message.

"Master, that’s not me. Did you arrange for this person to come?"

"No."

"Then, Master, it looks like you’ve encountered a tycoon, congratulations!"

Wu Li looked back at the live stream interface and said with a smile, "Thank you, thanks to the fierce woman for the rewards."

However, this was just the beginning. This fierce woman started to give gifts like crazy, and only the most expensive Heart of the Universe at that. In a short while, she gave 95 pieces, rounding it up to 100, and then she left a smiley face in the comments and left the live stream.

Wu Li found it quite baffling. In the blink of an eye, she had given gifts worth more than 200,000 yuan, didn’t say anything, and then left coolly. Is this what tycoons do for fun daily?

Thanks to this show of unrestrained generosity, Wu Li shot up to the number one spot on the Mo Yin hourly ranking, leading the second place by 600,000 sound waves, which is equivalent to 60,000 yuan. Although he would undoubtedly need to continue to attract gifts to maintain the first place, it saved Liu Yuanbo a significant amount of money.

Wu Li clicked on "a fierce woman’s" profile. Her avatar was a cute kitten, her information listed Capital City, 20 years old, with 110,000 fans, and she hadn’t published any creations.

Wu Li clicked on her favorite works and found that it included several videos he had posted, along with many other martial arts-related videos. It seemed like she was a wealthy, combat-loving belle or rich widow?

With the boost from the hourly ranking, the number of people in Wu Li’s live room rose rapidly until he ended the stream at 11:30 pm, and the system began to tally the results.

[The live room’s peak online number was 53,782 people, converted to 53,782 Fan Value]

[Total rewards received were 305,436 yuan, converted to 3,054,360 yuan]

In reality, Wu Li had received more than 300,000 yuan in rewards tonight, but the system does not count rewards given by oneself or rewards commissioned by someone else, so Liu Yuanbo and others’ gifts were not included. Even so, with the system’s bonus, Wu Li earned over 3 million in one night.

Wu Li’s personal information was currently as follows:

[Name: Wu Li

Fan Value: 360,000

Money: 5,260,000 yuan

Skills: Xingyi Fist (Master Level), Piercing Kick (Skilled Level), Yong Chun (Skilled Level)
