Chapter 59
While live competitions don't explicitly prohibit the use of outside players, they are inherently one-on-one matches. For streamers who value preserving their reputation, being caught doing so would be incredibly humiliating. Even if opponents don't use this as a tool to attack them, they'll be ridiculed by the audience and forever labeled as someone who can't afford to lose.
Yifeng knew very well that he might be involved in such a situation, but he still chose to ask a metaphysical master for help. He was simply shameless to the extreme.
If he asked his fellow psychology teacher, a senior, to provide guidance, that would be another way to counterbalance him. However, the metaphysical teacher was from the same lineage as Lan Lan. He was belittling her on the surface, but then secretly asked the metaphysical teacher for help...
Sister Hua was speechless at such a person. This was even before Yu Lanlan told her that Yifeng was using invisible headphones.
Sister Hua wanted to expose this matter directly so that many viewers could see Yifeng's true face. However, when she thought of the large number of Internet trolls of Shenshi Live, she immediately gave up this idea to avoid being blamed by the other party.
But Sister Hua had been with Yu Lanlan for so long that she believed in karma. Perhaps it was because of Yifeng's lack of integrity that the platform suddenly announced the livestream village event, ruining all of Yifeng's plans.
Sister Hua discussed it with Yu Lanlan again.
"Yifeng wants us to take the initiative to end the competition, but that's impossible. Let's just wait for them to make the first move. I want to see what he chooses!"
There aren't many good moments like this, and no matter what Yifeng chooses, it will be a mess. Whether it's a complete defeat or a tie in eight games, it would be a big joke to tell others about it, not to mention that he may not even tie in the last game.
Yu Lanlan also knew how much people around her hated Yifeng, so of course she would not refute Sister Hua's decision.

Li Zaiming was almost pissed off by the platform's sudden operation. This time, he thought of Wei Chi, the general manager of Shenshi Live.
After discussing the next steps with Yifeng without any results, he called Wei Chi.
Wei Chi usually had things to do, and Yifeng had contacted An Qiqing without telling them. He already had some complaints about Yifeng, so he couldn't help rolling his eyes when he saw Li Zaiming's call.
However, in order to take Ou Mingjue's plan into consideration, he suppressed his emotions and answered the phone.
Soon, Li Zaiming informed Wei Chi about the Live Village and Yifeng's concerns, but he concealed the fact that Yifeng had sought help from a metaphysical master behind the scenes.
"Boss Wei, do you have any ideas on how to help Afeng delay the registration?"
Wei Chi's eyes almost rolled up to the sky.
This event was officially launched. He was just the general manager of a live streaming company. Even if his status was special, how could he interfere with something that had already been officially announced? Did Li Zaiming think he was a fictional boss who could shake up the Guo Jia machine with just one sentence?
What's more, by intervening in such matters, does he think that the karma and sins he has afflicted are not enough?
"This is the official time limit. Even if you are the eldest lady, you can't change it." Wei Chi answered more tactfully.
Hearing this, Li Zaiming was extremely disappointed.
However, in order not to cause Yifeng's dissatisfaction, Wei Chi still called Yifeng personally after finishing the call with Li Zaiming.
Although the problem was not solved, the two of them came to a decision after discussion.
Yifeng plans to try for another day. If it doesn’t work, he will have to give up this treatment before the registration for the Live Village event closes.
This is a relatively compromise solution and also the best solution at present.
-
On the fourth day of the eighth round, Yifeng's live broadcast room was the only one left lit up in the recommended position for the live broadcast of the arena.
The audience didn’t know what the live broadcast village activities were, nor did they know that this was the last time this recommendation position would light up. They just wanted to know whether Yifeng could do it.
A familiar patient appeared in the live broadcast room, but he didn't know that he might be abandoned soon.
Because Yifeng's attitude towards him was implicitly flattering, although he could not resolve his psychological barrier for the time being, he thought that Yifeng was different from other people and was more friendly towards Yifeng.
Yifeng suppressed his inner anxiety and tried to stimulate the patient in a more advanced way.
The two sat facing each other on the sofa.
Yifeng: "Have you ever thought about what you would do if you met the destined love of your life?"
Who would have thought that when the patient was asked this question rashly, his attitude suddenly changed.
An Qiqing, a disciple who was always observing the patient, noticed something was wrong and immediately made an inference.
Then, just when the atmosphere was tense, a message came to Yifeng through the invisible earphones: "According to his horoscope, his love life has never been smooth. He must have suffered a broken heart during school. If we want to use this method to treat him, we must first rekindle his hope for love."
Upon hearing this, Yifeng froze. He had originally thought this method could stimulate the patient and inspire him to overcome his interpersonal barriers, but he had actually fallen into another trap!
No, now it has become two pits! Because now he has to solve the patient's emotional problems and the problem of communication barriers!
Yifeng really wanted to yell at the metaphysical master behind him, why didn’t you calculate these things in advance!
But he didn't know that this was something that even An Qiqing's disciples hadn't anticipated. They hadn't expected the patient to experience something like this, nor had they expected Yi Feng to blurt out the answer without even discussing it.
As a result, we are now in a situation where we are stuck in a dilemma.
Yifeng's already anxious mood became even worse, and before he could control it, he let a hint of it out.
The audience was closely watching his live broadcast, how could they not see it?
There are already signs of pessimism in the barrage.
[No way? Yifeng stepped on a landmine again?]
I would like to respectfully call him the Radar Man...
In fact, Yifeng really didn't want to bother controlling his emotions anymore.
He might be able to try to solve one problem at a time, but now the problem has been split into two, what can he do?
He took a deep breath and then started to play badly.
Yifeng gave up on psychological counseling and started to deceive people in any way he could.
He started talking about everything under the sun, and finally even the patient noticed that his attitude was not right and became a little suspicious.
However, Yifeng would not show on his face that he had actually given up on this counseling. When he felt that the time was almost up, he directly told the patient that today's live broadcast was over, just like he did in the past few days, and asked the other party to go back for the time being.
As soon as the people left and the live broadcast room was closed, Yifeng's expression immediately changed.
Looking at Li Zaiming who approached him cautiously, Yifeng frowned.
"Contact the platform and tell them I'm giving up on this level and admitting defeat."
Instead of wasting time on this patient who keeps having problems and is of no help to him, he might as well end it early so that he can have more time to prepare for the next live village event.
Hearing this, Li Zaiming hurriedly did as he was instructed.
Soon, the platform contacted Yu Lanlan and Yifeng, announced that Yifeng had voluntarily admitted defeat, and asked them to go to the platform headquarters to sign the agreement after the competition ended.
Yifeng’s live broadcast didn’t end until 11 o’clock.
At twelve o'clock, Yu Lanlan stood with him in the office on the platform.
It was a familiar scene again, with people on both sides standing facing each other.
However, Yu Lanlan's team was filled with joy from the inside out, while Yifeng's team was in a very low mood.
Yifeng signed the agreement as quickly as possible, looked at Yu Lanlan with a gloomy look, and left quickly with his team.
After watching them leave, Yu Lanlan also signed her own agreement.
The staff congratulated her, which earned Yu Lanlan a sincere smile and a thank you.
Just when the staff thought that she would leave as soon as she finished handling the matter like Yifeng, they didn't expect that Yu Lanlan hesitated for a moment and asked a question that surprised her deeply.
"Excuse me, regarding the eighth-level patient that Yifeng finally gave up on, can I still meet with him?"
Seeing the staff's puzzled look, Yu Lanlan explained: "I want to continue psychological counseling for the other party, free of charge, and not live broadcast."
The staff, who had only been respectful to Yu Lanlan on the surface, were instantly touched after hearing this.
You know, Yifeng could have admitted defeat and quit at any time, but this time he had left them in such a mess that he simply walked away. And Yu Lanlan, who had won eight fights in the ring, offered to help them solve the problem. That was like giving someone a pillow when they were sleepy.
"Okay, I'll contact them for you. Please move to another room and wait."
One of the staff members took Yu Lanlan and her team to another empty room.
Seeing their backs walking away, the other staff members in the office immediately exchanged glances.
The staff who received Yu Lanlan and Yifeng picked up the agreements signed by the two and compared them.
Yifeng's crooked signature forms a sharp contrast with Yu Lanlan's free and easy signature.
"Tsk... pattern..."
-
Yu Lanlan didn't notice that the staff who received her had become much gentler towards her. After thanking them for the tea they had prepared for her, she used the waiting time to discuss the next steps with Sister Hua.
There is still one day left before the registration deadline for the Live Streaming Village. After registration, all anchors need to go to the place prepared by the platform to undergo various tests and stay there for one day to ensure the smooth opening and progress of the Live Streaming Village activities.
So there is not much time left for Yu Lanlan. She needs to discuss with Sister Hua what she needs to bring and arrange the follow-up matters.
It was not until the staff brought the eighth-level patient that Yifeng had given up that Yu Lanlan stopped talking to Sister Hua and turned to look at her.
The patient surnamed Zeng received a call from the platform staff under inexplicable circumstances.
During the call, the staff explained to him that Yifeng had given up on counseling him at the end of the live broadcast of the ring.
After hearing the news, the patient couldn't believe his ears. He had always regarded Yifeng as a different person, but in the end, he found out that the trust he had finally given to Yifeng had been stabbed in the back.
The most important thing is that if Yifeng had said it directly during the live broadcast, perhaps he would have understood and forgiven the other party. However, during the live broadcast, the other party did not mention the idea of giving up on him at all. As a result, not long after the live broadcast ended, he received a call from the platform staff.
Just when the patient was so angry that he became speechless, the staff told him another story.
"Mr. Zeng, please don't worry. Although anchor Yifeng has given up on treating you, another anchor, Yu Lanlan, who was competing with Yifeng, has offered to provide you with free treatment. She's waiting for you, so we'd like to invite you to come back."
After hearing no movement from the patient for a while, the staff member thought the patient was unwilling, so they added, "Anchor Yu Lanlan is much stronger than Yifeng. In this competition, she defeated Yifeng eight times in a row and has cured fifteen patients. If you don't believe me, you can check her homepage."
The staff member deliberately emphasized the 'eight games' and 'fifteen patients', and anyone who was aware of the key points could understand what she meant.
Under the strong persuasion of the staff, the patient surnamed Zeng finally came to Yu Lanlan.
However, the patient who had just experienced Yi Feng's back stab was obviously much more cautious, but for Yu Lanlan, these were just trivial details that were not worth mentioning.
After Yu Lanlan invited the other party to sit down, she took out three copper coins with a smile.
"Let me tell you a fortune first. I won't tell you about the past, but only about the future. What do you think?"
The patient was stunned.

Meanwhile, some viewers noticed a new announcement on the recommended section of the live broadcast...
