Chapter 165: The show begins!

In Mi Guo, inside a certain club.

Kai En saw Lu Yu's repost of his scarf.

Immediately, his brows furrowed involuntarily, and a displeased expression appeared on his face.

Then, the corners of his mouth slowly rose, revealing a mocking smile.

"What an overconfident guy!" A voice sounded in the room; it was naturally Lu Yu's scarf.

Kai En smiled and said, "Indeed."

Lu Yu's reply seemed fine.

But was there really no problem?

Lu Yu said he was accepting the challenge!

What does accepting the challenge mean?

Only by standing in a higher position can one accept the challenge!

So, does Lu Yu now think he's stronger than Kai En?

Just this much, Kai En could tell how arrogant Lu Yu was.

And facing such a person…

Naturally, we must strike with a heavy blow!

"Kai En, kill this brat!"

"Kai En, this time don't hold back!"

"Let them know how formidable we are."

The people in the room were all smart; they instantly grasped Lu Yu's subtext and spoke up one after another.

Though he said that, a hint of ruthlessness appeared in Kai En's eyes.

Kai En smiled and said, "Are you guys overestimating Lu Yu? He's not worth our such attention. Come, let's keep drinking."

Though he said that, a hint of ruthlessness appeared in Kai En's eyes.

"Since you dare to step forward, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Huaxia, inside Lu Yu's office.

In Huaxia, inside Lu Yu's office.

"Xiao Yu, your scarf..." Chen Qiao had just opened his mouth and said a few words, but for a moment he didn't know how to continue.

"Xiao Yu, your scarf…" Chen Qiao had just uttered a few words, but for a moment he didn't know how to continue.

Chen Qiao naturally also noticed the problem with that scarf.

Lu Yu had completely placed himself in a higher position.

That's not necessarily a problem, but…

If Lu Yu loses, it's likely others will exploit this.

In other words, Lu Yu himself blocked his own retreat.

But… upon seeing Lu Yu, Chen Qiao felt Lu Yu couldn't have not considered this.

"Uncle Chen, are you talking about the scarf?"

Lu Yu seemed to see Chen Qiao's worry and began to explain.

"The other side is clearly targeting me; do you think they'd let up if I backed down?"

"Unless I fall down, they won't stop."

"Unless I fall, they won't stop."

"Since we've confirmed it's an unavoidable opponent, why not meet the challenge head‑on?"

"Resolving it would naturally be best."

"Even if we can't resolve it… we can still keep trying."

Chen Qiao fell silent for a moment, then nodded lightly and said, "I understand what you mean."

"I still say that I and Grand will always stand with you."

Lu Yu smiled and nodded.

After chatting a while longer, Chen Qiao then left.

Lu Yu couldn't help but look toward the outside sky, then took a deep breath.

Since coming to this world, his greatest difficulty… will appear.

This will also be the toughest challenge!

The online praise frenzy for Lu Yu finally gradually subsided.

The online hype praising Lu Yu finally gradually died down.

After all… constantly praising someone is also something that gets people tired.

And just then, other different voices appeared online.

"Don't you think Lu Yu is being a bit overbearing? No matter what Kai En says, he's a long‑established senior, and Lu Yu's wording shows no respect for seniors at all."

"Although in the gaming world strength is king, respect should still be there, right? Besides, Lu Yu's strength isn't necessarily higher than Kai En's."

"Exactly, Kai En has been validated by his works and time. Lu Yu… is still too young; how long has he been in the gaming industry?"

"So I still think Lu Yu should keep a low profile."

At first these opinions were still mild and had sufficient basis.

So, many netizens after seeing them felt inclined to nod in agreement.

"I think Lu Yu is being overly arrogant; after winning the championship in the first round, he started getting carried away."

"I think Lu Yu is too arrogant; after winning the championship in the first round, he started getting carried away."

【61】 "I feel the same. Getting first place in the first round is indeed worthy of pride, but know that many game developers haven't even put out their own masterpieces!"

Lu Yu now doesn't put the world's people in his eyes; later… they will be stepped on by everyone under heaven.

Lu Yu, quickly delete your Weibo, or you'll embarrass yourself later.

Because of these remarks, the online sentiment is shifting again.

After all, the Huaxia people are introverted.

So they also think these remarks are correct.

So they began to feel that Lu Yu seems… really problematic.

Gradually, the image of a youth who had achieved his ambitions and then became overconfident coalesced in everyone's mind.

Everyone's impression of Lu Yu worsened again.

But for now, it hasn't erupted yet.

After all… the competition results haven't come out yet.

However…

This still had quite an impact on Lu Yu.

"Lu Yu is already so arrogant and complacent—what good game could he possibly make?"

"I think so too… so I'm not planning to download that whatever Devil May Cry."

"I support the support, but I really don't think highly of Lu Yu."

Many people have openly declared or secretly decided not to play Devil May Cry!

For Lu Yu, the impact is actually still quite big.

Besides, I have to say, netizens… really are the most changeable group in this world!

Of course… this is also just a surface appearance.

Because many netizens speak up, those who don't speak are actually even more numerous.

……

In the blink of an eye, the International Game Maker Competition has reached its submission deadline.

All game makers have already submitted their games.

Then…

Almost at the same time, the International Game Alliance began uploading each game maker's game.

It is worth mentioning that Kai En's game 'Doom's Descent' was placed on the homepage of the Game Alliance's official website!

And outside the Game Alliance's official website…

'Doom's Descent' is being promoted in an almost frenzied manner.

As for abroad, there's no need to say more about the promotion of 'Doom's Descent'; naturally, they utilized every available resource.

And domestically…

Almost immediately, on buses in some first-tier cities and on various billboards, 'Doom's Descent' appeared.

Even…

People could also see the promotional video of 'Doom's Descent' in some large shopping malls.

On the homepages of major domestic portal sites, 'Doom's Descent' could also be seen.

'Doom's Descent' descended like a god!

In the shortest time, it occupied the gaze of all gamers!
