Speaking of Science in a Supernatural Livestream 52


Chapter 52: Official Certification (Part 1)

Sang Jing was sweating from the spiciness, and Xie Yu seemed to be doing it on purpose, always making her eat the things that absorbed the most soup and were the spiciest.

“Hey, what a coincidence. You guys are here too.”

Hearing the familiar voice, Sang Jing looked up while hissing.

“That’s great. Let’s share a table.”

Bei Shan came over with Cui Wangshu. She paused when she saw the fiery red hot pot base, as if hesitating about the decision to share a table.

“Sang Jing, you…” Bei Shan knew that Sang Jing had a light palate. Seeing Sang Jing, who was now sacrificing herself for a ghost and eating such a spicy pot, she couldn’t help but offer a word of praise. “You’re really a great person.”

Sang Jing didn’t stop wiping her sweat with a tissue. She couldn’t even smile anymore. But who asked her to agree to eat hot pot with Xie Yu?

“Xiao Cui, can you eat this? If not, we can get another pot.”

“I can, I can!”

Cui Wangshu now saw Sang Jing as a super idol. To be able to eat at the same table as her idol, she was overjoyed. A little spicy pot was nothing.

Seeing that she could take a break, Sang Jing quickly started a topic. “Xiao Cui, how was the assessment today?”

Cui Wangshu immediately sat up straight, like a good student, and took out the Celestial Master coins she had just gotten today. Although there were only two, she was already very satisfied!

“Sang Sang, the examiner even praised me for my good talisman drawing today. It was very steady!”

Sang Jing also praised her. “Very good. You’ve made a lot of progress recently.”

Cui Wangshu had just entered this field not long ago. To be able to get two coins in her first assessment was very talented.

Bei Shan added some dishes on the tablet, then reached out and patted the back of Cui Wangshu’s head. “Of course. After learning from you for two days, she has completely forgotten about me.”

Cui Wangshu scratched her head and defended herself in a low voice, “How could I?”

“But Sang Sang is really amazing. Before the assessment, I heard someone say that the seven chairmen of the Xuanmen were assessing one person together. I thought they were just making it up, but it turned out to be true. You’re so amazing!” Cui Wangshu’s eyes were shining with stars.

Bei Shan had received a message from Tan Wei this morning. After learning about the identity of Sang Jing’s teacher, her jaw almost dropped. After that, she was not so surprised to hear that Sang Jing had passed the eight-coin Celestial Master’s test.

Ji Zhi, a ten-coin Ghost Master. It’s a piece of cake for her to teach an eight-coin Celestial Master.

Thinking that Sang Jing was now considered a member of their 136th Special Investigation Team, Bei Shan was so happy she couldn’t close her mouth. Fortunately, she had acted quickly.

The other teams would be so envious, and also those guys from the Xuanmen.

“How can she not be amazing? She figured out how the person died without even seeing them,” Bei Shan said, feeling a sense of satisfaction. “A bunch of scumbags. That Li Chengliang’s family, you were right. Li Chengliang swallowed glass and jumped off a building to commit suicide. He was smashed to pieces, and his soul was burned away by the backlash. His family went crazy, got sick, and was in a lot of debt. And that old bastard who was causing trouble, he used the little metaphysical arts he had learned to harm people and take their money. He died of a heart attack on the night of the Li family’s incident. His skills were not good enough, and he paid with his own lifespan.”

Sang Jing leaned back in her chair and sneered. “Not just his lifespan. He’ll have to suffer when he goes down below. A Xuan Master who uses metaphysical arts to harm people will have their punishment multiplied by ten when they go down below.”

This was something Bei Shan didn’t know. “Is it so strict down below?”

“Mm,” Sang Jing’s lips were on fire. She had to get some ice water. “It’s a new rule. After the livestream has been stable for a while, I’ll talk about these things.”

“Then what are the benefits for you for helping the underworld?” Bei Shan asked curiously.

Xie Yu and Cui Wangshu also looked at Sang Jing. They were also curious.

Sang Jing: “…I don’t know.”

When her teacher’s wife had asked her to do this, she had agreed without any hesitation. She hadn’t thought about any benefits.

But logically, there should be some.

After chatting for a few more sentences, another round of dishes was served. Bei Shan and Cui Wangshu were eating with snot and tears streaming down their faces. Xie Yu laughed at them mercilessly, and Sang Jing also laughed along, completely forgetting that she had also been suffering from the spiciness not long ago.

When they were almost done eating, Sang Jing looked at the time. It was past ten. By the time they got back, it would be almost eleven. She could still do a livestream.

“Let’s go.”

Sang Jing patted Xie Yu.

Xie Yu followed behind Sang Jing. As she went downstairs, she looked back at the person sitting alone in the shop.

Song Zhiwei.

After they went downstairs, Song Zhiwei seemed to have sensed something and suddenly turned her head. At the table behind her, only the two people who had come later were left. The person who couldn’t eat spicy food but had forced herself to eat it at the beginning was already gone.

Her phone rang. Song Zhiwei quickly answered the call. “Hello.”

“Yes, it’s me. Is what you said true? Can you really help me find her?”

“Alright, I’ll be right there.”

Song Zhiwei hurriedly stood up. The hot pot in front of her was untouched.

She passed by Bei Shan’s table. Bei Shan stared at her retreating back thoughtfully until she disappeared.

Cui Wangshu also craned her neck to look. “Team Leader, what are you looking at?”

Bei Shan tilted her chin, and Cui Wangshu only saw a fleeting figure.

“What’s wrong with her?”

“She has a fragrance on her, the smell of a dead person.”

“…”

Cui Wangshu silently moved a little further away from her team leader.

The smell of a dead person, and it’s fragrant?

Returning to the hotel suite, Sang Jing went to take a shower. After washing away the smell of hot pot, she changed into a simple white T-shirt and shorts and sat cross-legged on the cushion, looking refreshed.

She didn’t start the livestream directly but first uploaded her documents for verification. This verification would take an hour.

Xie Yu was also still in the shower. Ever since Sang Jing had said she was a dirty thing for not showering, Xie Yu had to rinse herself with water every day.

The sound of water in the bathroom didn’t stop. Sang Jing drank water while looking at the forum where all the major sections were mixed together.

The top dozen or so posts were all about the same thing—Encounter’s return after four months, voicing a popular script.

Sang Jing was originally not interested in these things, but for some reason, she clicked on it.

It was probably because she saw the four words “Assistant Xiao Xie” in the post.

The post was almost all from Encounter’s fans, who had directly labeled Xie Yu a fake and had also commented on Xie Yu’s appearance. In short, the entire post was a crusade against Xie Yu, from her voice and appearance to her character and personality.

Flipping to the end, Sang Jing squinted her eyes. She knew why the content of this post was so uniform. No one was discussing Encounter; they were all talking about Xie Yu.

Because, not long ago, Encounter had liked the comments that said Xie Yu was a fake. Although she had un-liked them, the fans had already taken screenshots as proof.

Sang Jing scoffed lightly.

The clear stream of the industry? Indifferent to fame and fortune? Heh.

To guide her fans to cyberbully a… ghost. Her heart is probably smaller than the eye of a needle.

As soon as Xie Yu came out, she saw Sang Jing’s eyes cold and her lips curved as she looked at her phone.

This smile meant she was angry.

Xie Yu felt that she was now a master of analyzing Sang Jing’s expressions and could understand all her various smiles.

“What’s wrong?” Xie Yu walked over, wanting to see what could make Sang Jing so angry, so angry that she looked like she was about to beat someone up.

Sang Jing’s finger moved, and she exited the forum. “Nothing.”

Xie Yu came over and saw Sang Jing’s account homepage. “Did someone say something dirty again? I’ll help you curse them back.”

The reserved person didn’t say anything. The reserved person was preparing for her livestream.

Xie Yu pouted and sat down beside her. Her gaze moved down and saw Sang Jing’s exposed calf. The muscle lines were smooth and powerful, giving a strong kick to both people and ghosts.

Suddenly, her gaze fell on a spot on her leg. Xie Yu reached out and touched it. There was a long, diagonal scar there, from the front of her leg to the side of her calf. The scar was pale, and because Sang Jing was already fair, it was not so obvious.

“How did you get this?”

Sang Jing felt a little itchy from the touch and dodged. “The livestream is starting.”

She’s not saying again, the reserved person!

Xie Yu wanted to bite her. In the end, she looked at her for a while and turned her head to be her cold-faced assistant.

The number of viewers in the livestreaming room rose very quickly, and the bullet comments floated up like snowflakes.

【Streamer, streamer! The last livestream didn’t have a result yet!! I’ve been scratching my heart and lungs for a day. Please, please, please tell me.】

【Sang Sang, Mama is here!!!】

【Why are the streamer’s lips so red and her eyes so moist? Were you secretly eating just now?】

【Yes, she was secretly eating. Secretly eating Assistant Xiao Xie (yellow heart) (yellow heart) (yellow heart).】

【To the person above who is asking for the result, go to the forum next door, post number 33119999. I guarantee you’ll be satisfied and in a good mood.】

【Where’s our team, where’s our team!! Secret code, secret code, secret code, 13 party, assemble! The way Assistant Xiao Xie looked at Sang Sang just now! Does anyone understand me! They definitely kissed before the livestream!】

【I’m sorry, I’m a 31 party. Sang Sang’s profession is a counter. It must be 31!】

【An old person is here. What’s a 13 party, a 31 party?】

【We’re indoors today. Is it for divination and face reading! I’m ready to grab a spot!】

【A streamer who got popular because of our Encounter is now shipping herself with this fake. It’s disgusting.】

【Encounter is the only one, Encounter is the only one, Encounter is the only one. Fakes, get lost, fakes, get lost, fakes, get lost. Important things are said three times.】

【Why are there suddenly so many Encounter fans?】

Sang Jing saw the Encounter fans who had flooded in later, moved her mouse, and directly kicked them out.

The number of people was increasing, and Sang Jing kept kicking them out. She kicked out those who were being toxic, blacklisted them, and kicked them out. She kicked them out for a full ten minutes.

【Why isn’t Sang Sang talking? She seems so angry.】

【There’s an answer on the forum next door. Sang Sang is kicking people, all of them Encounter fans. They were saying bad things about Assistant Xiao Xie.】

【I just got here, I don’t understand. Does Sang Sang not like Encounter?】

【31, I’m shipping it.】

【13, I’m shipping it.】

“I don’t like hypocritical and fake people,” Sang Jing said, her first sentence in tonight’s livestream.

Almost the second she finished speaking, she received a report message in the background.

It was clear that Encounter’s fan base was really large, and their loyalty was also very strong.

Soon, a large number of Encounter fans flooded into the livestreaming room, and the bullet comment section was in chaos, with a lot of arguing.

【One scammer and one fake, a perfect match. Lock them up.】

【You’re the one who’s hypocritical and fake. Relying on special effects and extras to pretend to be mysterious. And there’s still a group of blind and foolish people who believe it.】

【How dare you? Without the traffic from Encounter, would your account have gotten off the ground?】

【Are these fans crazy?】

【My god, this is so lively. First time seeing a livestream with a fight.】

【A ‘three-nos’ streamer without even an official certification has the nerve to mention our Encounter. You want to leech off her popularity again, right?】

【Did Sang Sang say something wrong? Using a fake Bazi to debunk her, isn’t that hypocritical and fake? A voice actor with the same vocal range for a dozen or so roles is still worshipped like a god. Eat something better.】

Xie Yu saw all these bullet comments, and her expression gradually became complicated.

Then she began to reflect…

【User “Big Green Frog Croak Croak Croak” has sent Streamer Sang Jing Torpedo ×1 and left a message: Thank you, chief examiner, for not pursuing the matter.】

【User “Celestial Master Lin” has sent Streamer Sang Jing Torpedo ×1 and left a message: Thank you, chief examiner, for not pursuing the matter.】

【User “Definitely Advancing to Four-Coin This Year” has sent the streamer Torpedo ×1 and left a message: Thank you, chief examiner, for not pursuing the matter.】

Amidst the argument, torpedo special effects appeared one after another, a total of forty-three, all with the same message: “Thank you, chief examiner, for not pursuing the matter.”

The netizens in the livestreaming room went to these people’s homepages and found that they were all officially certified Celestial Masters, and all had Celestial Master certificates!

Sang Jing hadn’t expected them to come and send her torpedoes as a group. It was probably because they had seen the fate of the Sang family and were scared.

But the timing was really a coincidence.

This time, the people who were arguing with Encounter’s fans immediately had more confidence.

So what if she doesn’t have a certificate! So many Celestial Masters with certificates have come! Our Sang Sang has real skills!!!

Just as a new round of arguments was about to start—

【Quick, go see Sang Sang’s homepage!!!】

【Officially certified eight-coin Celestial Master!!! A big red badge!!!】

A new streamer recently arrived on White Whale Live. She was mysterious and strange, and some said you could see unclean things in her livestream room. Many people scoffed at this, but human curiosity is a powerful thing; the more people said it, the more others wanted to go and see what was happening.

There weren't many people in the livestream room. At the very top, the title read: Supernatural Livestream, Believe in Science.

The contradictory title made people want to leave the moment they saw it, but in the next second, someone noticed a vicious ghost perched on the streamer's shoulder!

The ghost's appearance was bloody and incorporeal—a look that special effects couldn't possibly replicate.

For the first time, the bullet comments refreshed at lightning speed, the screen filled with question marks.

【?】

【??】

【???】

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the new streamer unceremoniously yanked the vicious ghost off her shoulder, stuffed it into a gourd bottle, and didn't forget to remind everyone: "Believe in science. There are no ghosts in this world."

Bullet Comments: ...If there are no ghosts, what did you just grab?

For the next livestream after she bare-handedly captured a vicious ghost, the number of viewers multiplied by more than tenfold, most of them having caught wind of the rumors and come to see a ghost.

【What ghost? The streamer is just staging it all. Seen this a million times, I'm out.】

【How'd you do the special effects, streamer? Teach me (smirking dog emoji).】

【This is definitely just manufactured hype to farm views. Can't believe there are still suckers who fall for it hahaha.】

...

Sang Jing ignored the mockery in the bullet comments, smiling as she pulled the 'person' beside her toward the camera. "Hello everyone, I'm your streamer, Sang Jing. First, let me introduce you. This is my newly hired little assistant, Xiao Xie."

Xiao Xie was expressionless, its eyes staring at the screen, filled with resentment. It spoke without a trace of emotion: "I am the assistant."

The streamer behind it was clearly dissatisfied with its work attitude and let out a soft 'tsk'.

The assistant's expression visibly stiffened. It then twitched the corners of its mouth into a 'friendly' smile and added, "Hello, everyone."

The bullet comments instantly exploded. Someone recognized this Assistant Xiao Xie—it was clearly the vicious ghost the streamer had captured in the little gourd that night!

Soon, the regular viewers who frequented Sang Jing's livestream room discovered that not only did the streamer take on a vicious ghost as an assistant, but she also guided them through the process of reincarnation, treated the eighteen levels of hell like a tourist attraction...

If anyone asked, it was all just staged. In modern society, one must believe in science.

"..."

This streamer is too well-connected.
