Qian Shen and Guan Zong had been utterly defeated. In fact, without Youdian Leng even lifting a finger, the very users and teams they had once offended now surged forward like a tidal wave, toppling Douyu’s former “Number One Sister,” Xiao Leng, straight off her pedestal!
[Boom! The winds rise, the waves crash! In the wake of the fateful duel, Xiao Leng’s popularity score plummets into the negatives, crashing below ten million! The horror of it! Countless “dark storm” gifts rain down in this battle’s live room like a tidal wave, engulfing the stage. Is there anyone left willing to extend a helping hand to this pitiful, tragic streamer? If not, Xiao Leng will be completely wiped out in three minutes!]
When that blinding red system announcement appeared, everyone knew it: the Shenhao Alliance was finished. Not a single one of them could stand tall on this battlefield any longer.
The spectators were swept with unprecedented emotion.
After all, the Shenhao Alliance of Douyu had been the strongest force in the entire industry!
It was a coalition of four Shenhao ranked on the Wind and Cloud list, backed by dozens of highly influential industry figures, and supported by a whole legion of Douyu’s most high-spending users.
And yet now… this alliance was utterly, completely destroyed. No team escaped, no member remained unscathed.
Just hours ago, the members of the alliance were still mocking Youdian Leng as some arrogant upstart.
Everyone thought so. But no one imagined the Alliance’s defeat would be this brutal.
With this overwhelming ending, Youdian Leng silenced every last doubter in the industry.
Now, looking at this ID blazing like a beacon at the very peak of the scene, everyone understood: the streaming world had just gained another living legend.
But for many viewers, excitement burned brighter still—because they realized they were about to witness a clash of legends with their very own eyes.
The challenger: a rising storm, carrying unmatched momentum.
The defender: an old-guard legend, the “Gatekeeper,” dormant for over two years.
Two years. On the surface, not long.
But in the high-speed streaming industry, two years might as well be a lifetime.
Big-name streamers vanish for just two or three years and, when they return, their popularity is gone. This is no exaggeration—it’s reality. Examples are everywhere: once-dominant figures like the Northwest Cleaver King, or the notorious charmer who swept Douyu’s “Three Beauties”—now, who even remembers their names?
And yet Yu Huang (“Fish Emperor”)—a user who had never streamed himself, never even cultivated a fanbase—returned after two quiet years, and still, the moment his ID appeared on the platform, countless people instantly recognized him.
In the bullet chats, aside from Youdian Leng and the fallen Shenhao Alliance, his name was the most discussed.
Now Guan Zong and Qian Shen had been defeated, and even Xiao Leng—amid sobs—was swept out by swarms of small-time teams and petty Shenhao.
So when Youdian Leng calmly exited Xiao Leng and Zhang Yuyan’s duel room, no one needed to be told where to look next. All eyes shifted at once—to the homepage of the Wind and Cloud event.
And there, they found it.
In Douyu’s most popular stream—Xiao Xiao’s channel—two IDs appeared side by side.
That alone was enough to blow the room sky high.
No explanation was needed. These were simply two names too powerful to ignore:
- One: Youdian Leng, fresh from crushing the Shenhao Alliance, burning with unrivaled momentum.
- The other: Yu Huang, once the towering presence above the entire PandaTV platform, a living myth.
Now, finally, these two stood across from each other.
Two blazing IDs, facing off in Xiao Xiao’s stream.
The bullet chat went insane, a flood of messages from Xiao Xiao’s fans, Chen Shi Fuhua team members, remnants of the defeated Alliance, and hordes of rubberneckers. Thousands of voices overlapped at dizzying speed, drowning the screen.
No one cared about the other “Top 100” popularity duels anymore. Even those ongoing had only diehard fans watching.
The entire industry’s attention had converged here, on this historic confrontation.
After three minutes of tense silence, the stalemate broke.
For the first time since appearing, Yu Huang spoke.
His bullet chat gleamed with Douyu’s golden dragon pattern, instantly overriding all ordinary messages, seizing the spotlight.
It was not angry. Not taunting. Instead, it carried calm affirmation:
[Douyu’s Supreme User Yu Huang] @ [Douyu’s Supreme User Youdian Leng]: I must admit—you are worthy of being the second “Jade Emperor” of Douyu.
The second Fish Emperor!
It was a rare acknowledgment, a recognition of power.
But to many, it felt too late. Almost laughable. Even pointless.
Youdian Leng no longer needed anyone’s validation. He had already proven, with overwhelming dominance, that he deserved it.
So people wondered: what was Yu Huang’s intent? Was this an attempt at reconciliation? A warning? Something else?
No one knew.
But Youdian Leng wasted no time in answering.
One word.
“Oh.”
Just that.
It was as casual as if an old friend had asked if he’d eaten, and he’d simply nodded.
No tension. No excitement. No hint of battle looming.
Simple. Direct.
And precisely because it was so simple, everyone could feel it—Youdian Leng’s unshakable confidence.
Even standing before the legendary Yu Huang, he couldn’t be bothered to say more.
The viewers felt it. And Yu Huang himself felt it too.
Perhaps he even realized how meaningless his words had been.
After all, Youdian Leng had never sought reconciliation. From the very beginning, he had fought the Alliance, fought Douyu itself, never retreating a step.
So why would one sentence sway him now?
Yu Huang chuckled coldly.
“Very well, then. Let’s see what ‘reason’ you truly have to stand on.”
And with that thought, in his luxury home in Wuhan’s elite district, the thirty-something youth adjusted his collar, his expression turning solemn.
