Chapter 4

In the live stream, as the opponent's last Parasect fell, Lu Ye officially won the battle.

From start to finish, Lu Ye only sent out one Venusaur, but he managed to wear down the opponent's six Pokémon with the "Substitute Poison" tactic.

A one-versus-six victory, which should have been the ultimate glory for a trainer, in Lu Ye's live stream... it made people so angry they wanted to grind their teeth.

"How can there be such a dirty tactic!"

"It's not the tactic that's dirty, it's Lu Ye's heart that's too dirty!"

In the virtual image, Lu Ye returned Venusaur to its Poké Ball, but he was also a bit intimidated.

This "Pokémon: Battle" game isn't a turn-based game; it requires trainers to command their Pokémon in real-time using a microphone.

If it weren't for Lu Ye being in the fifth level and the opponent being a rookie, he might have almost lost.

"Phew, good thing I'm more skilled," Lu Ye muttered.

To the audience in the live stream, this sounded a bit sarcastic.

A one-versus-six victory with Venusaur almost fully intact, and you call this a close call?

Killing people and crushing their spirits!?

"After battling the Gym Leader online, if you have a conscience, come to the hospital to see me!"

"This tactic is too risky, not for the Pokémon, but for the trainer's personal safety!"

"This tactic makes me so angry! Lu Ye, lean over, I'll give you a buff!"

Lu Ye remained unperturbed.

"Thank you for the plane from 'Is Lu Ye a Trainer?'... Lu Ye isn't a trainer, just a hobbyist."

At this moment, the audience wished they could drown Lu Ye's live stream with their saliva.

Your hobby is to study dirty tactics?

Just a hobby, and you can one-versus-six with a single Venusaur?

Lu Ye, you still say you're not a trainer!

"Thank you for the rocket from 'Battle Person'... Boss, you're so generous!"

Lu Ye, who was half-dead a moment ago, suddenly raised his voice an octave when the rocket effect appeared in the live stream.

"Thank you, boss. Hmm? Is this ID a high-quality imitation? How..."

Instantly, the fans in the room started brushing the screen with comments in pain.

"Boss, you're confused!"

"Red, don't give Lu Ye gifts, you'll be corrupted!"

"Damn, it's really the world champion! The world champion is giving Lu Ye a rocket!"

In front of the computer, Lu Ye looked at the familiar ID and thought for 0.05 seconds.

At the speed of light, he added Red as a room manager and sent a private message.

[Today Lu Ye is a Mess: Boss Red, this is my Line account: XXXX, we can communicate more in the future!]

This private message was also translated into Japanese, which made Lu Ye praise his own wit.

After Red visited Lu Ye's live stream, the popularity of the live stream soared to over 500,000 thanks to the world champion's appeal.

The gift data in the backend skyrocketed, and the comments flooded the screen.

"Lu Ye, you're famous!!"

"Can you get a signature from Red for me?"

"Red, Mom loves you!"

Since it was an international platform, the users in the live stream were not just Chinese, but also from Unova, Hoenn, Kalos, and other regions.

For a moment, various foreign languages bloomed, making the live stream lively.

"Are you there? The streamer is offline? Why aren't you talking?"

"Please, Lu Ye, give us another 'Substitute Poison' tutorial!"

"Guard, guard, guard, oh, I learned it!"

At this moment, Red didn't expect his unintentional action to cause such a stir.

Looking back at Shizuka, he saw her smile helplessly, "You're already a world champion, a public figure!"

Red scratched his head, "The battle was too exciting, I couldn't help it..."

"If Akagi sees you giving gifts to his opponent, I wonder how angry he'll be." Shizuka smiled lightly.

Red smiled awkwardly, then suddenly received a private message from the ID "Today Lu Ye is a Mess."

Reading the content, Red's eyes lit up.

"Exchange... does he want to spar with me in Pokémon battles!"

Shizuka smiled wryly.

I bet he just wants you to give more gifts.

"I remember, you studied Chinese, right?"

"Yes." Red nodded, "I studied it for a while."

[Fight Person: ...We will have a chance to exchange (smile).]

After replying to Lu Ye, Red slapped his head and exclaimed, "Almost forgot, I have to go to the Shizukana Gym to spar with Green today!"

"It's still in time."

"Let's go, you come too!"

Shizuka was taken aback, looking at Red's hurried back, her cheeks slightly flushed, but she sighed regretfully.

"Still, I couldn't tell him about the movie..."

---

Regarding Red, Lu Ye now only knew three things.

First, this guy seems to have bought a house online, and his presence can be seen everywhere.

Second, he is now his benefactor, and he needs to hold on to this leg tightly.

Third, who can tell me what Red's ellipsis means!

And this smiling face, is he mocking me?

If you're going to talk, don't use ellipses, it's tiring to guess!

Lu Ye sighed deeply, feeling exhausted, "Today's live stream ends here, see you next time."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Ye quickly ended the live stream with a familiar motion, leaving the audience in the live stream in disarray.

"Over a million views! And he just ended the stream?"

"Why are you so familiar with ending the stream?"

"Although you look embarrassed when you end the stream quickly, you looked so cool when you one-versus-six!"

"Lu Baby, Mom loves you!"

Even Lu Ye didn't notice that after Red sent the rocket, the number of subscribers to the live stream was increasing at a visible rate.

Promising to show his face at 100,000 subscribers, it was now already over 50,000, and Lu Ye showing his face was just around the corner!

"Brothers, keep pushing, we can see Lu Ye on camera next week!"

"Really, is there anyone who thinks Lu Ye is a face streamer? No way!"

"Whether he's handsome or not doesn't matter, I mainly like listening to Lu Ye's monologues!"

The number of subscribers continued to grow, but Lu Ye had already turned off the live stream software.

After going offline, Lu Ye began to study the game "Pokémon: Battle" in detail.

"Today, I almost lost... this game is actually voice-controlled and real-time!"

"Damn, there's no limit to four moves, so I'm invincible!"

[Ding... System binding... Binding successful!]
