OFR – Chapter 348 Industry Earthquake (Part 1)!

On the Douyu platform, the “God-Tier Tycoon Alliance” plus Yu Huang—a legendary figure across the entire site—should have been an unstoppable force that no one dared to challenge.

Everyone thought that even if “A Bit Cold” had all the reasoning in the world, in the face of such a dominant giant, he would have to back down.

But to everyone’s astonishment, “A Bit Cold” didn’t even bother to respond—he jumped straight into battle, igniting a storm of confrontation unlike anything seen before today. Even in the future, it might remain unmatched in the streaming industry for at least a decade.

And this storm came with such suddenness and ferocity—without the slightest warning!

“A Bit Cold” didn’t exchange a single word, yet everyone who witnessed the scene could feel that every word he wanted to say was embedded in those full-screen, blood-red, “dark barrage” notifications that swept the platform.

At this point, both sides had laid all their hostility and cards on the table. They didn’t need dialogue anymore.

As “Guan Zong” had just said, all they needed was a brutal, no-holds-barred battle—one that would shake the entire industry—until there was a winner and a loser.

With bloody, undeniable results, they would show everyone who was truly the king of Douyu—the one whose call could echo across the valleys.

Yu Huang, the legendary streamer?
Guan Zong, the most dominant figure in the Tycoon Alliance?
Luo Tianshen, current #1 on Douyu’s Tycoon Power Rankings?
Or Xiao Xi, the most popular female personality in the industry?

It didn’t matter who they were. What the crowd would never forget was the man who once stood alone against the entire class of Douyu’s tycoons—

“A Bit Cold.”
For the next ten years in streaming, his name would be an unavoidable threshold for any would-be tycoon.

For the next two hours, people found themselves constantly switching from Douyu’s platform page to the live battle page, and back again, over and over.

They nearly forgot which streamer’s event they’d originally come to support—what stuck in their minds were the black barrage storms and tidal waves of gifts that still seemed to float before their eyes.

This was an uneven battle, but it was fought with such ferocity that it bordered on carnage.

From Douyu’s main site to the live event page, no one could remember exactly how many “dark gifts” were thrown or how many direct, head-to-head clashes there had been. They only recalled the exact moments when top-tier superstar streamers fell.

Within the first ten minutes of the battle, under the duel between “A Bit Cold” and Yu Huang’s camp, over a thousand official and Tycoon Alliance star streamers were completely wiped out again.

The sheer speed—total wipeout in just ten minutes—left even Douyu’s remaining contenders unsettled.

But before they could panic for long, the warfront had shifted from the platform to the live event page.

On Douyu’s home turf, Yu Huang and his fellow tycoons had fallen quickly—partly because they still had to think about the broader event, unwilling to spend their full reserves there.

Yu Huang himself, to avoid suspicion, hadn’t acted on the main site at all—saving his terrifying spending power for the event page.

After all, this was an industry-wide spectacle. If such an epic clash happened on Douyu, yet none of its streamers ended up topping the event leaderboard, it would be an industry-wide joke.

That’s why, when the fight truly shifted to the live page, the battle entered full white-hot intensity.

Every star streamer from the Tycoon Alliance and Douyu’s official roster faced stubborn, even cruel resistance. Even someone like “A Bit Cold”—unafraid to fight the entire Douyu platform—found the going tough.

At the 30-minute mark, he finally conquered streamer Xiao Yuan’s room. The blood-red system barrage announced the fall of the first Tycoon Alliance ace:

[BOOM!] The storm rises, the tide washes all away! Xiao Yuan’s event popularity has dropped below negative ten million—unbelievable! Thousands of ‘Dark Storm’ gifts have flooded this room. Does anyone wish to help this poor, pitiful streamer? If not, she will be wiped from the event in three minutes!

Seeing the massive negative score and her Douyu stream similarly crushed to the “dark value” limit, Xiao Yuan felt an unbearable pain in her chest.

She wanted to cry to Guan Zong—her longtime source of security—but seeing him already red-eyed in an all-out clash with “A Bit Cold,” she didn’t even dare to call for him in chat. She could only bite her lip as tears slid down her beautiful face.

At the 50-minute mark, the Tycoon Alliance’s “Royal Clan” team lost their first ace.

Luo Tianshen, their leader and #1 on Douyu’s tycoon list, lost his composure completely, tagging “A Bit Cold” in rage:

“A Bit Cold, you’re gonna pay for this—mark my words!”

But just ten minutes later, with the battle still under 70 minutes, the Royal Clan’s second and final ace fell.

Even after going all-in, Luo Tianshen’s team couldn’t stop “A Bit Cold’s” crushing advance.

In his Beijing luxury villa, having burned through every liquid asset he could muster, Luo Tianshen stared at the glaring system barrage, feeling a suffocating fury that wouldn’t leave his chest.

Yet the live-page battle didn’t end with his defeat—it only grew more intense.

By the 90-minute mark, both the “Shen Meng” top team and “Junwei” team had fallen, losing five ace streamers in total.

Shen Meng leader Xiao Xi and Junwei leader Yuan Yangjun sat in their luxury apartments, utterly stunned—never before had they suffered such devastating defeat.

They also dreaded the moment they’d have to explain to their parents where such massive sums of money had gone.

By the two-hour mark, everyone watching was shocked to see that the entire Tycoon Alliance had been wiped out—except for “Douyu’s #1 Sister,” Xiao Leng.

Her survival, alongside Zhang Yuyan, was thanks to her massive fanbase and the all-out support of Guan Zong and Qian Nanshen—the only two super-tycoons still holding the line against “A Bit Cold.”

But after the earlier storms that ravaged Douyu and the live page, nearly all other tycoons had exhausted their spending capacity. Many sat trembling, still clutching their phones or mice, unable to believe how much they’d spent—yet it barely made a ripple.

It was too terrifying. Too insane.

Most members of the Tycoon Alliance now felt both fear and regret—fear of how they’d explain this to their families, and regret for ever opposing someone whose true limits were still unknown.

Even Luo Tianshen, Yuan Yangjun, and Xiao Xi—once considered equals to Guan Zong and Qian Nanshen—had all been defeated and fled.

The once-mighty Tycoon Alliance had all but collapsed.

Meanwhile, “A Bit Cold,” already at the peak of his dominance, stepped over the scattered IDs of defeated tycoons and the broken remnants of their alliance, climbing to an unprecedented height in front of an audience of hundreds of millions across the internet.
