Thank you to the two grandmasters, [Just a Cricket].

That night.
7:50 PM.
The night had fallen.
People worldwide who were following the National Martial Combat Tournament were all watching live streams on various platforms.
In the living room of the Su family villa.
Qin Luo and Su Muwan were also sitting in front of the TV.
As per the introduction, the tournament would officially commence at 8:00 PM sharp!
On the screen, Li Mingyuan and Qian Duoduo were seated at the commentary desk.
He smiled at the camera.
"Welcome to the official live stream of the National Martial Combat Tournament!"
"So, we still have 10 minutes until the competition begins."
"I'd like Qian Duoduo, the tournament's sponsor, to say a few words to boost morale."
The camera shifted to Qian Duoduo.
Qian Duoduo, blushing, nervously sat at the commentary desk, struggling for a while.
Then, in a soft voice, he said: "F..Fight..fight on.."
Clap clap clap clap!
Applause erupted.
Qian Duoduo, as if having accomplished a difficult task, let out a sigh of relief.
Su Muwan:......
Li Mingyuan seemed very pleased with this scene and smiled, nodding, saying: "Thank you for Qian Duoduo's encouraging words."
"Moreover, our live stream has invited three popular guests from various industries to join us."
Su Muwan was quite puzzled.
Why were there three popular guests?
Who were they?
The next moment.
A familiar figure appeared on the screen.
The person, with pink hair, energetically greeted: "Hello everyone!"
"I'm the special commentator, Yan Qiuyue."
Su Muwan:......
Oh, why is it Qiuyue?
Su Muwan remained silent.
She had a hunch that the next person she might also know.
As expected.
Another woman with golden hair and wearing black-rimmed glasses appeared on the screen.
She greeted: "Hello everyone, I'm the special commentator, Alicia."
Smack!
Su Muwan covered her face. Why are these two here?
And the third one....
"Hello, big brother and sister~!"
"I'm the special commentator, Su Bailian~"
Well, they're all old acquaintances.
The three of them sat at the commentary desk, smiling and greeting the camera.
In the various live streams, bulletins rolled across the screens.
"It's the Pure Love Warrior, Alicia! I have to watch this!"
"Wow! I'm so lucky, I got to see Teacher Yan on TV!"
"Hey, have you seen Yan Qiuyue's latest youth comedy?"
"The event organizers are quite savvy! They invited these two teachers!"
"Oh! And Su Bailian! Isn't she the TikTok influencer with a million followers! Why would the event organizers invite her?"
"Never mind why, I just feel like I'm in love."
"You'll only hurt yourself if you love everything."
So.
Su Muwan covered her face, speechless, and said: "Why would these three be in the official live stream together?!"
Qin Luo searched online and explained: "Because Alicia is a super popular novelist, so she's a special guest."
"Additionally, Yan Qiuyue recently starred in several hit movies, and with Alicia's recommendation, she also became a special guest."
"As for Su Bailian.......”
"Oh, because the young master of the tournament's investor likes Su Bailian, he spent a big sum to have her come as a commentator."
Hey! Could it be this random?
And is it a coincidence?
Are all three people I know?
Su Muwan was speechless.
Back on the screen.
Li Mingyuan's gaze landed on Su Bailian and the others, smiling: "We also welcome the three of you to be our special guests."
"There are only a few minutes left until the tournament officially begins."
"I'd like to ask the three of you, among so many contestants, who do you think has the best chance to win?"
As the question was posed, the comments, or "bullet comments," in various live streams kept scrolling.
Some said Yan Qiuyue must favor Mei Ziang, after all, he was her on-screen partner.
Others said Alicia would definitely favor the Western contestants.
After all, compared to in the East, Alicia was more famous in the West, with more fans.
Even some contestants were Alicia 's fans and pursuers.
Facing this question.
Su Bailian thought it was simple.
"Um........”
She lightly placed her finger on her lips, pretending to think.
As if she had thought of something.
"Ah, right!"
Su Bailian's eyes brightened, her hands crossed, sweetly looking at the camera: "Bailian thinks Zhuo Song has a good chance, oh."
"Oh?"
Li Mingyuan became interested and asked: "Why do you say that?"
Su Bailian, hearing this, blushed, her eyes avoiding the camera, softly said: "B..Because I looked at the contestants' information and thought Zhuo Song's swordsmanship was very cool."
Somewhere.
Zhuo Song, watching on screen Su Bailian mentioning himself, immediately clutched his chest.
His eyes shook.
Wasn't this the pretty girl from the lottery store before?
She... she wasn't only a tournament commentator but also mentioned him?
Most importantly, in this live broadcast, she mentioned his swordsmanship.
This would definitely draw more interest to his dojo.
This.. is simply his benefactor!
"Bai...Bailian.."
Zhuo Song murmured, not knowing why.
For some reason, he felt like he had found true love.
Su Bailian kept her blush on her face.
Hmm?
You ask why she mentioned Zhuo Song?
No special reason, just thought this particular contestant was the easiest to persuade.
As for the others?
Look at them, all vicious-looking, like the Kaiser Boxing King, do you think I would mess with anyone just like that?
Besides...
Why not mention Su Muwan and Qin Luo?
Joking, I bought a lottery ticket for Su Muwan to come first.
If everyone started targeting Su Muwan because of my words, what then?
Hmph! Right!
Su Bailian's eyes gleamed with joy. Everything was under my control!!
On the other side.
Yan Qiuyue and Alicia, hearing this question, exchanged glances.
The former pretended to think: "Hmm.....”
"To say who I think has the best chance... this is a bit difficult to choose."
Alicia nodded: "Many contestants are hot favorites to win, making it hard for me to choose one."
"But."
The two smiled at each other.
Then they took out a photo they had prepared in advance.
It was...
A photo of Qin Luo and Su Muwan spliced together!!
Waving the photo, they shouted: "We're Su Muwan's cheering squad, of course, we support Su Muwan and Qin Luo's duo!"
"Su Muwan! Su Muwan!"
"Qin Luo! Qin Luo!"
Li Mingyuan: "?? We're talking about who has the best chance, not who the best duo is..."
Su Bailian: ? Big sister, is it really okay to do this on live broadcast?
In front of the TV.
Su Muwan, cringing, covered her face in embarrassment.
"So embarrassing..."
Qin Luo chuckled: "Miss, you really have great sisters."
"Please don't mention it anymore..."
And as time passed.
Soon.
As the clock struck 8:00 PM.
The National Martial Combat Tournament! Officially began!
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
ver to a world of cultivation and returned invincible. Modern medicine is child's play compared to elixirs; technological might crumbles before true cultivation. My name is Qin Ning, Earth's sole cultivator!
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.
ap a wealthy young lady? Or else I'll be eliminated by the system? Ye Feng, who awakened the Kidnapper System, originally wanted to live a peaceful life but never imagined he would become a kidnapper of young women. However, after some time, he discovered that all the girls the system ordered him to kidnap were far from ordinary. "Big brother Ye Feng~ You've kidnapped my heart, and now you're not allowed to leave me ever again~" "Ye Feng~ You kidnapped me back then, now it's my turn to capture you♡" "Little Feng, you're mine! You can only be mine!" "Ye Feng, none of them deserve you. Only I love you the most♡" ... This is madness, they've all gone mad! Wait, what? Why are all the girls I kidnapped yanderes?!
