Chapter 928 -928: Turning the Tables
The people of Starfire realized only after reading the chairman’s words that they were surrounded.
And the audience also quickly understood, it was because Starfire was too dominant, causing many to feel dissatisfied and uneasy.
Lately, Starfire’s momentum had been too strong, making many guilds envious and consistently achieving impressive results.
In other words, Starfire’s existence blocked the way for others.
Among the guilds surrounding Starfire’s fleet, many were from Huaxia, and perhaps some would say that Huaxia on its own had no right to compete on the world stage. If Starfire could step into the world, shouldn’t Huaxia support it?
That’s what people say, but in reality, the majority of guilds bearing a grudge against Starfire were from Huaxia, and Starfire’s excellence threw their faces into the dust even more, proving them wrong.
People from other administrative regions were simply jealous. They didn’t want to see Starfire continue to expand so unrestrainedly, many didn’t want Starfire to repeat the situation from years ago.
After all, Huaxia was the most populous administrative region, even accounting for one-fifth of the world’s population.
If Starfire rose, there wouldn’t be enough of the esports pie to go around.
With interests of multiple parties intertwined, Prosperous Era moved into action, and these guilds united. Many guilds that had been at war just moments ago ceased fighting and turned around, thinking of dealing with Starfire.
Of course, there were many guilds with this idea, but many clearly did not join this siege.
A European commentator said with a laugh, “It seems Starfire has indeed attracted public ire for being too high-profile.”
Feng Yi’s expression was not good, and she said indifferently, “Is it really that simple, just having angered the public? I think it’s because some guilds and some people are too narrow-minded.”
The European commentator shook his head, “It’s not that complicated; it’s just that Starfire is too assertive. Don’t you Huaxia people value modesty and restraint? Starfire’s style doesn’t seem to match the sayings passed down in your Huaxia culture.”
Feng Yi’s expression changed, “It seems Tata has studied our Huaxia culture quite well, but you’re still a novice. We also have a saying in Huaxia, ‘When it comes to righteousness, do not yield the seat,’ I won’t explain it to you. You should go back and research it yourself, maybe you’ll gain something.”
The other hosts looked at Tata as if he were an idiot. This idiot, using someone else’s culture to argue with them, wasn’t that stupid?
In fact, they were well aware of why Starfire was being attacked, but in such a scenario, it’s not proper to debate the struggle. With the besieged not speaking up, what was the point in talking? Discussing the outcome of the battle would have been enough. Why put yourself in a humiliating position, and still not make your point clear?
Moreover, it was said that the officials had gone to great lengths to invite Feng Yi. By provoking in this way and offending the official people, her future could be rather bleak.
Tata was extremely upset inside. Acting impulsively, she ended up embarrassing herself, and now the barrage of comments from the vast numbers of Huaxia audience members flooded the screen. Some even threatened to ‘dox’ her personal photos, turning Tata’s face green.
With a forced smile, she said, “Then, Witch, what do you think will be the outcome of this battle?”
Feng Yi calmly replied, “Do we even need to talk about it? Naturally, these jumping clowns will all return with clipped wings.”
The hosts from other administrative regions were immediately displeased, each citing facts and reasoning to refute Feng Yi, of course, Starfire was indeed far behind in terms of sheer power.
“If you’re so confident, how about we make a bet?” Tata said, smiling. She felt a bit smug, thinking she had turned the situation around.
When the audience heard about the bet, they immediately became excited. Especially since Feng Yi rarely made an appearance, and the rare Feng Yi who made a living by her voice was also stunningly beautiful beyond comparison.
The audience was even more eager to see such a beauty in distress.
Feng Yi revealed a slightly mocking smile, “A bet, huh? Sure, but let me make it clear first, I won’t joke about my personal dignity. We Chinese women value modesty, so if you’re thinking about bets involving someone losing and having to release bed photos or streaking or anything of the sort, sorry, you might not care, but in our culture, that’s extremely insulting behavior. So you’d better think of a more normal bet that everybody can accept.”
Feng Yi’s message was simple: you don’t know self-respect or shame, but I do.
Tata naturally could tell that she was just being called a bitch, but in such a situation, there was absolutely no way to lose her temper. She could only suppress her anger and say, “Alright then, if Starfire wins this battle, I will publicly apologize to all the Chinese audience in my commentary, admitting the strength of China and my own ignorance. Of course, if you lose, then you too, in your commentary, must admit that Chinese strength is still lacking, and stop being so arrogant, as if you’re invincible.”
Feng Yi nodded, “That sounds great. We have over a billion viewers as witnesses. Is there anyone else who wants to join in?”
Then three more commentators joined the bet, and the audience began a verbal war.
Although China only has one administrative region, its population is no less than that of other regions, and it was not at all disadvantaged in the war of words.
In the thick of the battle, Li Yao, of course, was unaware that Feng Yi had been pressured by the commentators from other regions into accepting a bet.
He was now laughing uproariously because Prosperous Era had directly surrendered to Starfire.
“Your Starfire is completely surrounded by fleets from nearly a hundred guilds. Do you even have any room to struggle? It’s best to admit defeat now, and you might still save your twenty warships.”
After laughing wildly for a while, Li Yao said, “What a huge joke. War hasn’t even begun and you’re already declaring victory or defeat, thinking you are the god of war, huh? If you want Starfire to admit defeat, fine, unless these twenty warships of Starfire sink.”
“Then just wait for it,” Prosperous Era scoffed coldly.

Moment of Splendor frowned and asked, “What do we do now?”
The other two guild leaders were also at a loss. They hadn’t anticipated this situation at all; with a power disparity of dozens of times, how were they supposed to play this game?
“Just hand over command to me, and I guarantee that the number of your ships after the big battle will at least double. But, there’s one condition: the players from your guild have to follow my commands,” Li Yao said firmly.
“Since there’s no hope, do whatever you want. I knew nothing good comes from allying with you,” Moment of Splendor said helplessly.
“That might not be the case,” Li Yao then said to the guard officer, “The rest is up to your performance.”
“As long as the deck is secure, I guarantee we won’t lose,” the guard officer said determinedly.
“I’ll take command of the deck battle. I guarantee it won’t affect your control of the warships,” Li Yao affirmed.
“Good, these extra ships might be somewhat useful. While the enemy hasn’t fully encircled us, let’s push through,” the guard officer asked, “Boss, which fleet do you dislike the most?”
Li Yao pointed ahead and said, “Look, that fleet from Prosperous Era.”
“Alright, listen to my command to adjust the formation, and let’s strike at Prosperous Era’s fleet,” the guard officer issued orders continuously, and the combined fleet’s formation changed yet again.
Then, to the stunned amazement of all the viewers, instead of holding their ground, they took the offensive, charging toward Prosperous Era’s fleet as if Starfire was the attacker…
