Listen to this chapter:

With such a disparity in viewership, there was no way Lina could win this challenge. The other streamer made the first move. "Huh. It looks like I got matched with a newbie."

She laughed. "Are newbies going this far now? I guess I've been too reserved."

She tugged her neckline lower, and her fans went wild.

"OMG, this challenge is so worth it! This is the best night ever!"

"Damn, girl! Pull it lower. I'll even throw in a Rocket if you rip your shirt!"

"You're gorgeous, Daira, unlike that hooker next door. She might as well sell her body on the sidewalk instead of wasting our time here."

The streamer's fans were brutal. They started hurling insults at Lina as soon as the match began.

Meanwhile, Lina's side was pitifully quiet. Quite a number of students from our university had tuned in, but their attitudes toward her were lukewarm at best. After all, her reputation was in shambles after all her high-profile relationships. First, she dated me, then Joshua, followed by Ryan.

No one saw her as an innocent woman anymore. Instead, she just seemed flirtatious and attention-seeking. Although she'd never been intimate with me, much less the other two, no one believed her. So, her audience wasn't willing to spend much on her, and all she received were cheap gifts.

Lina grew visibly anxious and started posing harder. Just then, a comment popped up. "Do a high kick, and I'll send you a Supercar!"

I frowned. A "Supercar" gift was only worth 300 dollars. It was insulting for them to request such a vulgar action for such a measly gift.

Just then, Lina lifted her leg high into the air.

The chat went wild, and her viewer count immediately shot up from a few hundred to over a thousand. Most of the newcomers were fans of the opposing streamer and were just there to spectate.

"This newbie sure knows how to flaunt her stuff."

"I love streamers like her. After all, if you're going to do it, you might as well go all out!"

"300 dollars for a show like this? How about barking like a dog for me if I send you two Supercars?"

Lina's cheeks went crimson when she saw the sick comments. She bit her lip, clearly feeling humiliated.

But instead of standing up for herself, she hesitated briefly before smiling into the camera. "Not so quick, handsome. If you want me to bark, it'll cost you at least 1,000 dollars."

Her words had barely left her lips when five Supercar icons flooded the screen. Still, five of those only brought the sum up to 1,500 dollars.

I clenched my phone, furious. A high kick was one thing, but barking like a dog? That was outright humiliating!

I quickly typed a message. However, Lina leaned closer to the camera before I could send it.

"Thanks, darling. Here you go. Woof! Woof! Woof!"

I was speechless. I couldn't believe she was willing to stoop so low for money. But just as Lina finished barking, she froze.

"Hang on. Is there a glitch in the system? Why is your progress bar full while mine is staying still?"

She stared at the other streamer's screen in confusion. In response, the opposing streamer smirked mockingly.

"What glitch? I already collected all the gifts I needed while you're still collecting scraps. So, obviously, you aren't making any progress."
