464: The top-ranked man, Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin

He had clashed with this "Yao Chi Xian Ji - Competitor Streamer ID" over their outfit styles a few times before, and the fans of both sides had frequently disparaged and argued with each other in the comment sections.

The moment the PK invitation was sent, the stream's chat froze for a second before exploding in an even more frenzied manner.

"Go for it! Sister is mighty."

"Waiting for the face-slapping; let the other side know what a dimensional strike looks like."

"Brother 'Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin,' come out quickly and support Sister's prestige."

Almost simultaneously, the PK invitation was accepted.

The screen split into two.

On the left was the crimson figure of Candle Dragon; the background of the Profound Ice Palace was chillingly cold, with dark gold dragon patterns shimmering with fine golden light under the screen's glow.

On the right appeared a woman dressed in a moon-white wide-sleeved flowing celestial dress, her features elegant and pure.

Behind her was a stream room decorated like a celestial palace, filled with swirling mist, bead curtains, and jade screens, exuding a deliberately crafted immortal aura.

"Yao Chi Xian Ji - Competitor Streamer ID" clearly recognized "Candle Shadow Shaking Red" as a rival who had recently been gaining a lot of momentum. A flash of surprise crossed her eyes before she put on a standard fairy-like smile: "Little Sister Candle Shadow, what a coincidence."

Candle Dragon gave a slight nod: "Sister Xian Ji, please give me your guidance."

The voice was flat, devoid of any discernible emotion.

The five-minute PK countdown began.

The health bars on both sides lit up simultaneously—crimson on the left and moon-white on the right. The initial values were both zero, but almost instantly, the health bar on "Yao Chi Xian Ji - Competitor Streamer ID's" side surged forward.

Her top supporter, "Emperor Lingxiao," immediately gifted ten "Spacecraft."

Each Spacecraft was worth ten thousand Soundwaves, equivalent to one thousand yuan in human currency. Ten ships meant one hundred thousand Soundwaves, and the dazzling special effects almost completely covered the right side of the screen.

"Yao Chi Xian Ji - Competitor Streamer ID" covered her lips and chuckled, her eyes shimmering: "Thank you for the Spacecraft, Brother Emperor. You've spent quite a lot."

Her fans immediately followed suit:

"Brother Emperor is mighty! This prestige is unmatched."

"Xian Ji is the most beautiful. Let those copycats see what real strength looks like."

"The one in the red dress opposite us—isn't that background just made of plastic sheets? Why try so hard to act high-class?"

The chat on Candle Dragon's side was instantly enraged:

"Bullshit, your house is the one made of plastic. Sister's background is clearly real ice sculptures."

"Is having a bit of stinking money that big of a deal?"

"Copycat? Where's your shame? Can your dresses even compare to our Sister's?"

"Hilarious. You have the nerve to call ten Spacecraft 'strength'? Our Brother 'Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin' hasn't even moved yet."

"Don't be afraid, Sister. Our wealthy 'Daiyu' is here."

Candle Dragon ignored the bickering in the chat, his divine sense resting on his slowly growing health bar.

Several fans with familiar IDs were gifting medium-sized gifts like "Dream Castles" and "Carnivals." The health bar was struggling to push forward, but its speed was clearly lagging behind the other side.

The gap gradually widened to three to seven.

Two minutes passed.

The health bar on "Yao Chi Xian Ji - Competitor Streamer ID's" side had already pressed near the midline. Her smile grew sweeter as she began naming and thanking the fans who sent gifts, her tone so soft it could drip water.

Candle Dragon remained sitting quietly, only adjusting his posture. The crimson hem of his dress fell naturally, revealing a very thin gold chain tied around his slender ankle.

The end of the chain was adorned with several blood-colored gemstones the size of rice grains.

It was a very subtle decoration, yet it was clearly captured by the camera.

Someone in the chat immediately asked:

"Is Sister's anklet a new purchase? So alluring!"

"Blood gems suit Sister's vibe so well. Hiss, hiss."

"Am I the only one who noticed Sister hasn't spoken this whole time? Is she upset by the other side?"

Candle Dragon finally looked up at the camera.

"The anklet is an old item; it has been with me for many years," he spoke slowly. He didn't directly address the disadvantage in the PK, instead following the topic from the chat.

"The gemstones are Blood Jade. They feel warm when held in the palm during winter."

His voice was calm, and it unexpectedly made people feel at peace.

Some fans who were originally anxious because they were losing the PK gradually settled down.

Two and a half minutes remained.

The health bar ratio was four to six; the gap still existed.

At that moment, a golden ID with an exclusive special effect entered the stream—"Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin."

The chat boiled over:

"Hey, Big Brother is here."

"Brother Coffin, the other side is bullying our Sister."

"Go for it, Brother Coffin! Let them see what real cruelty looks like."

"Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin" didn't send a message but directly opened the gift menu.

In the next second, the entire screen was submerged in crimson light.

The effects of one hundred "Interstellar Warships" exploded one after another.

Each warship was fifty thousand Soundwaves. One hundred ships meant five million Soundwaves, equivalent to five hundred thousand RMB.

The crimson health bar was like an awakening beast, lunging forward and overtaking the opponent with a crushing momentum, directly suppressing the moon-white bar until only a pitiful sliver remained.

The ratio became nine to one.

The stream fell silent for a moment before being flooded with "666" and "Brother Coffin is awesome."

Opposite them, "Yao Chi Xian Ji - Competitor Streamer ID's" smile froze on her face as she struggled to maintain her expression.

"The brother from 'Candle Shadow Shaking Red's' side is so generous."

Her "Emperor Lingxiao" seemed to be provoked and immediately gifted fifty "Interstellar Warships."

The health bar pulled back a bit, becoming seven to three.

One minute and fifty seconds remained.

Candle Dragon looked at the numbers jumping frantically on the screen and finally spoke again. "Thank you, 'Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin.'"

After a pause, he added another sentence.

"You've spent quite a lot."

It was a very simple thanks with no extra words.

But fans familiar with "Candle Shadow Shaking Red" knew that this sister had a cold personality and very rarely gave such direct thanks.

"Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin" replied with a message in golden font: "It's a small matter. I can't stand to see you being mistreated."

As soon as these words came out, the chat exploded once more:

"I ship it, I ship it!"

"Brother Coffin is dominantly protecting his wife!!!"

"When Sister said 'you've spent quite a lot,' her voice was so soft. I'm dying—charmed to death~"

Candle Dragon didn't respond to the chat again, turning his gaze toward the second place on the gift leaderboard.

ID: "Lin Daiyu Pulling Up a Weeping Willow."

This was a wealthy lady who had been following "Candle Shadow Shaking Red" since he had fewer than ten thousand followers. Her tips weren't usually the most lavish, but they were very consistent, and she would always step up during every PK.

At this moment, "Lin Daiyu Pulling Up a Weeping Willow" also made a move.

She didn't choose the most expensive "Interstellar Warship" but instead continuously gifted two hundred "Confession Balloons."

Each balloon was worth five hundred and twenty Soundwaves; two hundred balloons totaled one hundred and four thousand Soundwaves.

The special effects weren't the most dazzling, but the dense cluster of pink balloons filling the screen carried a kind of stubborn romance.

The health bar nudged forward another bit, reaching 7.5 to 2.5.

The time entered the final minute.

Opposite them, "Yao Chi Xian Ji - Competitor Streamer ID" was clearly anxious and began using an even sweeter voice to solicit votes: "Family, let's give it one last push to protect our glory. Xian Ji loves you all."

Several of her moderators also began spamming the chat, urging for individual votes.

The moon-white health bar began to slowly rise, approaching thirty percent.

On Candle Dragon's side, most fans' ability to provide individual votes had already hit rock bottom, and the health bar's growth was noticeably slowing down.

The situation seemed like it might be overturned once again.
