Chapter 81 Live Streaming Beast Detective
"This is just my guess." Chen Beiwu shook his head, extinguishing his reverie.
Thinking too much is useless; the method to verify a guess is very simple.
He failed to gain the approval of the alien spirit turtle back then, but now he has gained the recognition of the Yin-Yang Sturgeon. The only difference is that there are two more points.
First, he gained a touch of golden fortune; second, he became more proficient in mastering the first breath of the Nine Breaths Breathing Divine Power, the "Knowing Heaven's Fortune" technique.
All he needs to do next is continue accumulating good fortune and then find a spirit beast like the Netherworld Spirit Turtle that can sense one's destiny to verify it.
Fortunately, the live stream was only banned for half an hour.
Chen Beiwu glanced at the time, restarted the live stream, and found that the popularity of the live stream room had increased rather than decreased.
Where's the bighead carp?
[I almost thought the streamer had been arrested!]
"Ahem." Chen Beiwu coughed twice. "To prevent the live stream from being banned, new viewers, please be careful with your vocabulary."
[Will the streamer continue fishing?]
"I'm not going to fish anymore. If I catch a bighead carp again, the streamer's account will be gone."
Chen Beiwu smiled and changed the subject, saying, "But since everyone has supported the streamer for so long, the streamer should at least give back to the fans."
Upon hearing this, the number of comments on the screen surged.
[I have a bad feeling, Fish Bubble is going to start selling goods again!]
[It's alright, the Dendrobium nobile sold by the streamer is indeed of good quality.]
[Restock now!]
Chen Beiwu laughed. As a live streamer, he couldn't let his viewers guess what he was going to do.
"The sales will be a little later. To thank our fans, the streamer has decided to randomly select fans for a live stream chat, offering two free pet appraisal sessions. What do you all think?"
[Beast appraiser? When did you get your beast appraiser certification, streamer?]
[Interesting! This streamer is still a student, yet he's copying other streamers' animal-catching tricks. Isn't he afraid of making a fool of himself?]
[That's right, beast scavenging requires quite a bit of hardcore knowledge. Is the streamer just doing this for the sake of creating a good show?]
Ignoring the doubts in the live chat, Chen Beiwu started randomly connecting with other users.
"Welcome our first fan to join the live stream, Haitangyu," Chen Beiwu greeted them.
"Hello, Paopao, can you hear me?" A middle-aged male voice came from the video screen.
"Sure," Chen Beiwu said confidently. "My friend, do you want to identify a strange beast or a spirit beast?"
"Could the streamer help me identify what kind of strange beast this is?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the video feed switched to the fish tank.
A strange fish with a head resembling a dragon but without horns, red markings in the sunken eyes, a mouth full of sharp teeth, scales on its body, and a forked tail fin resembling a three-tailed creature came into view.
What a powerful fish!
This fish looks a bit like a red-eyed koi.
[No, the Red-eyed Dragon Carp doesn't have a dragon head, a reverse scale, or a forked tail.]
Seeing the live stream's popularity continue to rise, Chen Beiwu nodded to himself.
The appearance of the Two-Element Sturgeon was just an accident; it needed an important medium to digest the resources of the Southern Wilderness.
Creating a high-traffic account is undoubtedly the most convenient and time-saving option.
After all, yellow-tailed dendrobium can only be sold for a short time, not for a lifetime.
As long as the Tianyuan Diaolu account gains traffic, he won't lack sales channels no matter what goods he imports from the Southern Wilderness.
Seeing that Chen Beiwu didn't speak, Haitangyu asked again, "This is a strange fish I caught in the wild, Paopao, can you tell what kind of fish it is?"
"This is an ordinary fish, called a three-tailed catfish," Chen Beiwu said frankly.
"How could that be? You must be mistaken, host." Haitangyu said in astonishment, "The three-tailed catfish has a longer body, and both its dorsal and pectoral fins have a hard spine. It doesn't look like my fish at all."
Indeed, these two types of fish are only somewhat similar in their tails; otherwise, they are completely different.
[Wait, after hearing what Fish Run Run said, I feel like there's something strange about this fish!]
[Sigh, he's just a student, how could he possibly be a beast hunter? Everyone can leave now.]
Seeing the comments in the live stream, Chen Beiwu asserted, "Haitangyu, you must be a cultivator below the early stage of Qi Refining."
Through the screen, an ordinary cultivator might be fooled by the fish's appearance and think that it possesses many extraordinary characteristics.
However, his eyes possessed the power to know the fate of heaven, and after knowing the result, he could deduce the cause and effect, making it easy for him to determine that this was an ordinary fish that had been modified by magic.
"How did you know, host?" Haitangyu's tone became skeptical.
"A mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator possesses divine sense; a mere sweep of their divine sense is enough to spot the flaws in this three-tailed catfish," Chen Beiwu explained. "If you know a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator, you can have them take a look."
"If you really don't believe me, you can throw a spirit stone into the fish tank. Strange fish have a trace of intelligence and will only stay near the spirit stone to absorb spiritual energy. Ordinary fish have no intelligence and will only risk their lives to swallow the spirit stone."
Upon hearing this, Haitangyu suddenly recalled the uncontrollable smile on his friend's face when he boasted about it.
At the time, he thought it was jealousy, but now it seems that he was being laughed at for being blind and treating an ordinary fish as an exotic one.
"Impossible! I spent a hundred spirit coins to buy this strange fish!" the Begonia Fish suddenly shouted. "Streamer, if you don't understand, don't try to identify beasts."
As soon as he finished speaking, the other party seemed to lose their guard and hung up the call.
Chen Beiwu shrugged, his tone helpless. "Dragon head, red eye markings, reverse scales, and a three-pronged tail. Do you guys think it's possible for a strange fish to sell for only one hundred spirit coins? Spirit stones don't fall from the sky."
[Hilarious! This guy clearly bought the fish, but he insists he caught them himself.]
This guy doesn't utter a single truth; it's outrageous!
[Seeing through it but not saying it, we can remain friends. It seems the streamer's honesty really hit a nerve with the guy.]
At this moment, a dense barrage of comments covered the entire screen, and the live stream's popularity soared to over 100,000.
Sure enough, the Xianmeng live-streaming beast-hunting track is the easiest way to gain traffic.
Unfortunately, his knowledge was not extensive enough to compare with that of professional animal appraisers; he could only occasionally pull off some fancy tricks to create some entertainment value.
"Next up, please welcome the next viewer to join the live stream." Chen Beiwu clicked on the random connection button, and the video screen went black. The connection ID was "Eighteen-year-old sexy female cockroach".
[There's something fishy going on!]
[What happened to the random ranking? How come the richest woman on the leaderboard is now at number one?!]
[Okay, okay, the streamer is pulling strings in front of everyone.]
Chen Beiwu was also somewhat surprised. There were at least 10,000 real viewers in the live stream, so how did he happen to be the number one on the leaderboard?
"Hello, can you hear me, host?" A young man's voice suddenly came from the phone.
"Okay." Chen Beiwu nodded, then said to the audience, "Don't say there's something fishy going on. The random live stream connection is done by the platform randomly selecting fans, so the streamer shouldn't be blamed for it."
The next second, the video footage changed, showing a ball of flowing liquid flame.
As if sensing the phone filming, a pair of molten gold vertical pupils suddenly opened in the flames, exuding an overwhelming sense of oppression that made one's heart tighten.
