Cosmic Professional Gladiator Novel - Chapter 473

473 Qin Fangke (1)

Xu Jingming wasn’t too thrilled even though he guessed that his mental strength index had reached 10,000. After all, he had reached 9,991 points half a year ago. It was only a matter of time before he reached 10,000.

I’ve been immersed in visualization for too long. There are only three hours left until my next battle. Xu Jingming immediately tapped open the videos of his opponent. The opponent this time is ranked much higher than me.

Mo Yunfang—ranked third in the Mother Stream Cosmic Sector and 109th overall in the universe.

Of the 340 people fighting across the universe, those at the bottom lose too often, so they rarely schedule challenges. The system won’t match me with those ranked at the top either. Xu Jingming looked at the other party’s video. Mo Yunfang is pretty much the strongest opponent I’ve encountered in my cross-sector battles.

!!
In the past six months, the highest-ranked opponent was ranked 102nd. Top 100? He had never bumped into one; the system didn’t arrange it for him.

Xu Jingming carefully watched the videos in preparation for this battle.

…

Soon, the cross-sector battle began.

The Life Evolution game officials had done some pre-hype promotions! Many cosmic citizens were usually very busy. They didn’t watch many league matches or low-level matches; they only watched cross-sector battles.

Countless citizens from the two top experts’ cosmic sectors would show their support! Typically, the number of online viewers could break the 100 billion mark.

For experts of the same level, if they fought internally in the same cosmic sector… Firstly, there was no publicity from the officials, and secondly, there was no synchronized streaming across the 34 cosmic sectors. The number of viewers suffered a drastic drop, and it would be considered good if they could exceed one billion viewers.

“Lixing, this is a cross-sector battle.” In the stands, a young man was chatting with Xu Lixing. “In today’s five cross-sector battles, our Hunter Cosmic Sector’s Wu Ming will fight the Mother Stream Universe’s Mo Yunfang. As members of the Hunter Cosmic Sector, we naturally have to support Wu Ming.”

Xu Lixing was also very excited. “I’m also a big fan of Wu Ming!”

“I know that you also practice spearmanship,” the young man said.

“My father taught me. My father is also good at spearmanship, but he’s far inferior to Wu Ming.” Xu Lixing exclaimed in surprise as she watched. “There are so many people. The number of online users has exceeded 100 billion.”

“That’s very normal,” the young man said with a smile. “Life Evolution is promoted across the platform, and it’s live-streamed across 34 cosmic sectors! Given such resources, any livestream will have an exaggerated number of viewers online. Once the livestream is limited to a cosmic sector, the number of viewers will be drastically limited. Many viewers won’t even be bothered to watch it.”

The young man commented, “These people who can fight across the universe are all very impressive figures. They are almost certain to become Origin lifeforms.”

“An Origin lifeform—that’s so far away.” Xu Lixing sighed with emotion.

“Yeah, it’s a pipe dream for us,” the young man said, “but for big shots like Wu Ming and Mo Yunfang, they can easily break through. Most of them aren’t in a hurry to break through. Instead, they want to pursue the peak of their techniques.”

The young man smiled and remarked, “But don’t worry too much about today’s cross-sector battle! Although Wu Ming is very impressive, he will probably lose this match.”

“The battle hasn’t begun. Perhaps there will be a miracle?” Xu Lixing disagreed.

“One is ranked 237th, and the other is ranked 109th in the universe. The gap is too obvious,” the young man commented. “This Wu Ming is considered very diligent with his cross-sector battles! He fights almost every day, but diligence can’t breach the gap. He’s indeed inferior to the other party.”

“Qin Fangke!” Xu Lixing became upset. “Watching a competition is all about the unknown outcome! If we believe that Wu Ming will lose, what’s the point of watching the competition? We should support Wu Ming and hope that he will win.”

“Yes, yes, yes.” The young man, Qin Fangke, immediately smiled obsequiously. “Lixing, you’re right. Watching a competition is about the unknown. Alright—Wu Ming, all the best!”

“Best of luck, Wu Ming. Defeat Mo Yunfang!” Xu Lixing shouted.

Although Xu Jingming had lost many times, causing a drop in the number of citizens from the Hunter Cosmic Sector who came to watch his battles, there were still more than 20 billion people who came to support him. These cosmic citizens also shouted, looking forward to a surprise that their fellow cosmic-sector citizen would bring.

“Mo Yunfang is invincible.”

“Mo Yunfang, defeat that Hunter Cosmic Sector’s Wu Ming.”

“Wu Ming is invincible!” ×100

The entire platform displayed 100 consecutive messages.

“This Wu Ming isn’t strong, but the fanaticism from his fans is number one among the 340 contestants across cosmic sectors! Many fans advertise every cross-sector battle for him. Just the advertisement fee alone costs tens of billions a day.”

“It’s fanatic.”

“I can’t understand why his fans are so fanatic.”

Countless audience members discussed.

Although some fans of cross-sector battles were fanatic, it was rare for them to persist for extended periods.

“Wu Ming’s fans are fanatics.” Xu Lixing was impressed. “Just the shared earnings alone exceeds ten billion cosmic dollars a day.”

“This is nothing to him,” Qin Fangke whispered. “Do you know why the number one fan on the fan ranking—Qu Fang—and all kinds of other people advertise for him?”

“Why?” She was puzzled.

“I happened to chance upon this,” Qin Fangke whispered. “I heard that this Wu Ming has only cultivated the evolutionary method for 30 to 40 years.”
