"All the livestreaming platforms are far inferior to livestreaming in the virtual world," said Li Miaomiao. "Those real-world livestreaming platforms are completely finished. Tiger Shark Group is also doomed." A coldness flickered in Li Miaomiao's eyes.

Although she didn't say it, she was extremely hostile towards Cheng Zihao.

Cheng Zihao first tried to lure her with benefits, then resorted to coercion! Facing the coercion of the Cheng family of Tiger Shark Group, how many people could withstand the pressure? Li Miaomiao had been awakened from nightmares several times.

The other party even used her uncle to pressure her parents! Li Miaomiao was even more angry. She loved her parents very much and didn't want them to be involved, didn't want them to worry about her.

No matter how angry she was, Tiger Shark Group was too huge, so Li Miaomiao could only endure it, abandoning her livestreaming account with ten million fans, which she had accumulated for several years, and switching to a new platform, completely blacklisting the other party. This was the only thing Li Miaomiao could do. She didn't have any concrete evidence, so she didn't dare to retaliate.

"Tiger Shark Group is doomed," Xu Jingming also understood.

During that time, the pressure brought by Cheng Zihao was too great.

Cheng Zihao coerced and lured his girlfriend; any man would be furious about such a thing. But without evidence, there was nothing he could do.

He himself was also forced by the other party. He could blacklist the other party. Fortunately, Miaomiao had always stood by his side. Xu Jingming felt very sorry for Miaomiao, who was awakened from nightmares at night, and he hated his own powerlessness.

In the end, he was forced to leave Binhai City. He seemed carefree, but in reality, he was in a sorry state.

He was also blacklisted on the internet.

He once thought that he would spend his whole life running a martial arts gym and being a coach in his hometown, unless he could make a comeback and win the world championship, otherwise it would be difficult for him to rise again.

But…

The times had changed! Human society had ushered in the virtual world!

"Cheng Zihao's days of being rampant are over," said Li Miaomiao.

Li Miaomiao looked at Xu Jingming with a smile, "But Jingming, your future is a hundred or a thousand times broader than it was in the past, truly limitless."

"Oh?" Xu Jingming had some associations.

"Think about it, in 2036, humans first landed on Yinghuo Star (Mars). After that, in some year, virtual helmets were discovered on Yinghuo Star. Then in 2052, the first World Martial Arts Competition was held globally! And all countries fully supported it, various media kept promoting it, and the popularity was immediately raised to the number one fighting event in the world. Some legendary players' appearance fees were as high as hundreds of millions."

Xu Jingming nodded. Indeed, the World Martial Arts Competition didn't exist a long time ago because the danger was too high. But in 2052, countries around the world vigorously promoted this event, which once made many people wonder.

"And this virtual world game is also about cold weapon fighting," Li Miaomiao said, "And it's something that almost everyone on Blue Star (Earth) will learn."

"Looking back at the past now, everything can be explained."

Li Miaomiao said, "Thirty years ago, countries were preparing for the virtual world game 'Life Evolution.'"

"In the past thirty years, various fighting styles around the world have been excavated and have reappeared on the stage," said Li Miaomiao. "I have checked the information. Before the World Martial Arts Competition... weapon fighting was very niche. The traditional martial arts schools in China, such as Baji, Xingyi, Taiji, etc., were mainly for exercising the body, and they practiced fist techniques. Weapons had long been in decline. It was the World Martial Arts Competition in the past thirty years that enriched them again."

"Thirty years of cultivating the seeds of hope."

"These seeds of hope will be completely ignited in the 'Life Evolution' world," said Li Miaomiao, "allowing people all over Blue Star to learn cold weapon fighting faster."

Xu Jingming nodded.

Looking back at the past, everything is easier to understand.

"Speaking of which, countries around the world only formed the Blue Star Alliance in 2056," Li Miaomiao said, "But the first World Martial Arts Competition was held in 2052. Obviously, the importance of martial arts weapon fighting made countries immediately promote it without forming an alliance."

"I even think that the global effort should be not just for the game," Li Miaomiao speculated, "Or rather, this virtual world game is worth it for countries around the world to do so."

Xu Jingming nodded and gave a thumbs up, "Miaomiao, I think you're right."

"I'm just guessing," Li Miaomiao said with a smile, "Anyway, all humans around the world are playing this game, so martial arts weapon fighting... will truly have a limitless future."

"Jingming, if you can become one of the top ten in the virtual world game, it will be much more dazzling than being the world champion in the past," said Li Miaomiao, "Because the popularity of this game is many times greater than previous events."

"It's also more difficult," said Xu Jingming, "In previous World Martial Arts Competitions, a total of 32 people from around the world participated. In the past thirty years, a total of 522 people have reached the World Martial Arts Competition. Including A-level events and B-level events, there are more than 20,000 professional martial arts players registered with the Martial Arts Alliance worldwide!"

"In the past thirty years, there were only more than 20,000 people. Now, it's a competition of seven billion people. Everyone will learn the evolutionary method, and everyone can have dozens or even hundreds of life-and-death fights every day... It's much more difficult to reach the top ten in the world than it was to be the world champion in the past," said Xu Jingming.

"Do you have confidence?" Li Miaomiao looked at the man she liked. They met online, and the first time they met in real life was in a fighting gym. She saw Xu Jingming practicing his spear from afar and was attracted by his focus.

"Of course, I do."

Xu Jingming's eyes shone with unprecedented brilliance, "I already have a head start. Now that we are both in the virtual world game, how can I not have confidence? And the more experts there are, the more exciting the world of cold weapon fighting will be."

"The more exciting?" Li Miaomiao asked.

"When you see cold weapon fighting, don't you feel your blood boiling?" Xu Jingming looked at the snow in front of him. In a ten-person battle, the last person stood to the end covered in blood, laughing as he raised his head. His team had won.

Seeing this, Li Miaomiao understood something and thought, "Perhaps it is only the love from the bottom of his heart that has allowed Jingming to not relax his training for three years after his retirement. In today's era, Jingming will definitely shine with a light a hundred or a thousand times brighter than in the past. My Li Miaomiao has a really good eye, the man I chose is the most outstanding!"

Thinking about it, Li Miaomiao smiled sweetly.

"What are you laughing at?" Xu Jingming asked.

"Laughing at you winning the world championship, and me becoming the first lady of the world," Li Miaomiao pouted.

"Oh, then I have to work hard. Being the first among seven billion people is not easy," Xu Jingming said with a smile.

******

Four o'clock in the morning, seven hours after the official opening of the virtual world game "Life Evolution."

Peng Hai City, the skyscraper of Tiger Shark Group.

Inside the elevator.

Cheng Zihao and Cheng Zitong, the two brothers, were in the elevator, which was going up.

"Brother, what do you think Dad wants us for?" Cheng Zihao asked in a low voice, with an uneasy expression. He had been urgently called over from the virtual world game.

"Second brother," Cheng Zitong said softly, "You have to see the situation clearly. After the global livestreaming press conference, the group's stock price, which had been declining for more than a month, plummeted again. Although the group urgently suspended trading, after the virtual world game opened, you've been in, right? You've seen it, right?"

Cheng Zihao nodded.

"There's no comparison. Now all the livestreaming platforms have been completely crushed by the 'Life Evolution' world. 100% virtual, how can we compare?" Cheng Zitong shook his head, "This is not something that can be resisted by manpower. We can't withstand the general trend."

"Then what does Dad want us for?" Cheng Zihao asked.

"Dad has been staying in the company these days and hasn't gone downstairs," Cheng Zitong said, "Later, listen more and say less."

Ding!

The elevator stopped on the 153rd floor.

The elevator door opened, revealing a very large office. Cheng Zitong and Cheng Zihao walked out of the elevator and saw their father, Cheng Liwei, sitting at his desk in the distance.

Cheng Liwei's hair was almost all white, and his face was much older. He was looking down at the documents on the screen.

"Dad," Cheng Zitong stepped forward, and Cheng Zihao also said obediently, "Dad."

"You're here."

Cheng Liwei looked up at the two of them, "I'm informing you two of a piece of news. The family trust will be completely bankrupt within a few days."
