Why bother writing songs? Fast forward to the "Don't Laugh Challenge"

Ouyang Gou Dan's tone and demeanor were nonchalant, and his body was trembling as if he was shaking his leg. There was also smoke drifting into the area outside the camera's view.

It's obvious without even thinking that they were lighting mosquito coils off-camera.

Then, he would deliberately reveal the tattoos that were covered under his sleeves from time to time.

Compared to the mild-mannered and smiling Xia Shen, he looked like a real socialite.

That's not quite right; it should be described as having the flavor of an old-school spirit.

"What's up, wanna play a round? Everyone says you're a great songwriter? I want to see for myself, wanna play?" Ouyang Gou Dan asked.

"What kind of games?" Xia Shen asked. "PK? Sorry, I don't play PK games. As for making songs, I'm not actually that good. It's all because of my fans' praise."

Xia Shen remained composed and unyielding in the face of the other party's provocation. This composure, as if he had punched empty air, combined with his calm expression and demeanor, formed a stark contrast to Ouyang Gou Dan's frivolousness.

This also annoyed Ouyang Gou Dan.

Damn it, Xia Shen isn't giving me any face, and the other party isn't falling for his tricks.

Unlike the internet celebrities he had encountered before, who could easily become obsessed with just a little stimulation, he was different.

The reactions of the viewers, especially in the comments section, made him feel uneasy.

"Seriously, there's no harm without comparison. Looking at it this way, the difference between the two is really quite big. One is anxious to death, while the other is as calm as a mountain, not flustered at all."

"After all, Xia Shen has seen a lot of things, and he has faced real scenes with hundreds of thousands of people. Compared to that, this scene is just like playing house."

"I'm dying of laughter. Xia Shen's expression makes me feel like he's teasing a child."

"Be confident, you're just teasing a kid."

"Actually, it's fine to have some fun, so that some people won't always think they can be compared to the gods who have come down from the mountain. Besides, they haven't come down from the mountain yet."

It was at this moment that Xiao Xiao, who was wearing the high-ranking Xia Shen badge, also spoke up.

Xiao Xiao: Actually, we can play around with it. Just treat it as an event, and it will also help promote Live Aid.

"You can play it."

Xia Shen saw this comment, thought about it, and found that it seemed to make a lot of sense.

Anyway, let's just do it this once. I guess he's not the kind of person who plays PvP often.

Just consider it a trial and see if it's fun.

Anyway, like I said, I don't have anything going on today, so I'll just treat it as a chance to relax.

Ouyang Gou Dan had no idea that he had become a toy for Xia Shen to amuse himself.

He was still gloating over his provocation, believing that he had successfully provoked Xia Shen into blushing.

Since that's the case, then his goal has been achieved. He can have his people ready to record the screen at any time. It doesn't matter if they can't win in the early stages; when there's only a little time left, they can steal the tower and turn the tide.

The term "tower stealing" is actually a term used in PvP gameplay. It roughly means that in the final moments of a PvP match, when everyone thinks the gap is too large and the winner is about to be decided, a big win is achieved by suddenly turning the tables.

As for the points earned from stealing towers, he must have paid for them himself, since nobody knows it's his alt account anyway.

All we need to do is get Xia Shen to punish him.

As for the punishment, he had already thought it all out.

The goal is to make Xia Shen publicly admit on camera that he's inferior to Ouyang Gou Dan. He can't even imagine how much this will boost his fame—Xia Shen admitting he's not as good as him—once it's recorded and posted online. It'll definitely be a huge boost for him!

He had also planned and thought about it. He believed that someone like Xia Shen, who was not very familiar with PK gameplay, would basically not know about the tower-stealing tactic.

Then he can do whatever he wants with it.
In the video, Ouyang Gou Dan raised his head and said, "How do you want to play? Do you have any ideas?"

"I don't know much about that," Xia Shen replied with a smile. "It's up to you."

"How about this, let's play what we're best at. We're both musicians, right? Let's let our music speak for itself, okay? The one with the higher score can make the one with the lower score do the punishment, like playing some punishment games or saying some things," Ouyang Gou Dan said.

"Okay, but there's a condition: I won't do anything illegal or non-compliant." Xia Shen nodded, but still emphasized one more point.

After all, although he had never participated in PK (player versus player) combat, it didn't stop him from knowing that this area was extremely complex and chaotic, with numerous problems arising.

Not only are there many abstract people and people asking for favors, but there are also quite a few people who use punishment to get others to do outrageous things.

For example, the infamous "oregano" incident led to his being blacklisted and now he can only rely on old news.

It was something I did when I was provoked during a PK battle.

That's why Xia Shen always felt that very few normal people knew how to play PvP.

This incident involving Ouyang Gou Dan has further reinforced this stereotype.

And almost all of Xia Shen's fans in his live stream room have become very popular.

Because none of them could have imagined that Xia Shen, with his current status, would be so provoked in the small world of Douyin and Kuaishou.

They were all shouting: "Let's get him!"

Soon, the PK started, and Xia Shen was provoked on Douyin and Kuaishou. The fact that he was PK'd by someone also became a trending topic on major platforms.

After all, Xia Shen's popularity is undeniable, and this is a crucial time for Live Aid, which is about to begin.

This is just the beginning, and screen recordings are already everywhere.

This has led to an increasing number of viewers in both parties' live streams.

Ouyang Gou Dan is, after all, a rising star in the "rustic pop" scene recently. His works have indeed frequently topped various challenge charts and daily charts, becoming popular background music.

Many people do know him.

Therefore, this battle was jokingly referred to by netizens as the "Fly King Battle"!

They are all leaders in the lower-tier market!
Of course, the vast majority of people don't think highly of Ouyang Gou Dan.

After all, Xia Shen is capable of targeting the lower-tier market and making good songs. In fact, he even produced his own songs for the lower-tier market.

But Ouyang Gou Dan is different; he's a pure tailor.

His so-called songs are basically just pieces stitched together from other people's work, and they're all just snippets, barely touching the edge of legality.

However, it is undeniable that his approach is very popular and effective in China.

However, there will still be a group of people who approve of Ouyang Gou Dan.

They believe that Xia Shen is indeed appearing less and less in the lower-tier markets now, and he hasn't been seen on Douyin or Kuaishou for a long time.

This network updates and iterates so rapidly that some people have already forgotten its existence. (End of Chapter)
