The afternoon trending topic about sharing to your social feed was still there. Just two hours later, the topic about her championship victory was also pushed onto the list.

The news caused a huge stir, with people everywhere discussing it.

People who hadn’t been following the stream were astonished to see that Jiang Qiuqiu had beaten Xiong Xin. They were amazed that a streamer from the Food section had taken down all the popular sections.

After all, Xiong Xin was a household name, a Mecha genius.

And the Food section? It was considered nothing more than a quaint pastime in modern society.

When some people expressed their doubts, others would reply. There had already been plenty of replies on the trending topics today. When these latecomers saw the skepticism, they didn’t write long-winded explanations. Most just offered a few simple phrases.

—No regrets after eating, no loss after watching. Her win was perfectly normal.

This was already the highest of praises.

As for Jiang Qiuqiu, the moment she exited the stream, she was flooded with congratulatory messages from her friends.

There were messages from fans, from other streamers, and also from Sister Chengyu.

Mo Chengyu’s experiment had recently reached a critical phase, so she had very little free time on weekdays. She had specifically carved out time to watch this final match.

Mo Chengyu: Qiuqiu really is the best cook in the entire interstellar space!

Mo Chengyu: First place is amazing!

Jiang Qiuqiu: ⁄(⁄⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄⁄)⁄ Thank you, Sister Chengyu. How has work been for you lately? Are you still as busy as before?

Mo Chengyu: I’m swamped. I’ve never been this busy. Even busier than before.

Mo Chengyu: What about you? Have you been busy?

Jiang Qiuqiu said things would be better after the event was over.

Jiang Qiuqiu: The company still has its annual gala. After that, things should quiet down for the new year holidays.

Mo Chengyu: Oh, right. You mentioned the new year. Doesn’t that mean you’re supposed to enroll at Federation University after the holidays?

Sister Chengyu’s mention of Federation University suddenly reminded Jiang Qiuqiu that she still hadn’t logged into the university’s official website to fill out her intended department. Today was the 14th, and the deadline was in just two days!

Jiang Qiuqiu: Yeah, I’ll be starting school after the new year.

Mo Chengyu: That’s great!! I’ll take you to school next year and visit my old professors while I’m there~

Jiang Qiuqiu: Okay! That’s perfect. Sister Chengyu can give me a tour of Federation University.

The two chatted a bit more before someone came looking for Mo Chengyu. They wished each other a good afternoon and agreed to meet up after the new year.

Before filling out her intended major, Jiang Qiuqiu went on the Star Network. Several pages on the entertainment section were covered with news of her PK victory. She glanced at them. Whenever someone asked who Jiang Qiuqiu was, someone else would immediately reply.

Many of those promoting her were her fans.

A quick scroll down revealed many people asking the same question: How could a streamer from the Food section like Jiang Qiuqiu manage to overcome all odds, defeat top streamers from major sections like Beauty and Mecha, and even beat the national Mecha prodigy Xiong Xin to take first place?

—There are so many reasons! She’s pretty, has a gentle voice, a fun personality, and her cooking is insanely delicious!

Below that, people were endlessly listing all the things about Jiang Qiuqiu that attracted fans.
