This comment instantly made Shi Leis Weibo explode.

[Special effects? I knew it! How can a person fight a wolf barehanded?]

[His grandmothers t*ts, weve been fooled! Y would do anything for clout, how shameless!]

[Its all a sham! Trash! It must be for the series ratings!]

[Master Shis eyes are sharp and observant, its no wonder hes a specialist at martial arts!]

[Y, get out of the entertainment industry!]

The power of the spammers were limitless, and the thread very quickly got onto the trending page.

Countless spammers and fans of Shi Lei combined to follow Shi Leis lead and attack Y like a bunch of rabid dogs.

Even the Weibo page that Ye Lingchen had just registered was flooded with insults.

[Y you fraud, get out!]

[Extremely shameless, you dog!]

[Some martial arts expert, I bet you couldnt even take a blow from Master Shi!]

Ye Lingchen did not reply, a lot of his fans had already run over to Shi Leis page, and both sides were starting to trade barbs.

[Is it that difficult to admit that someone is talented?]

[Shi Lei is a petty man! Is there any value in putting others down?]

[This is the character of a star? Shi Lei is so f*cking disgusting!]

Li Tai naturally stood on Ye Lingchens side, and posted when he could bear it no longer, [Nobodys success is achieved without effort, and I can personally vouch for the veracity of Ys video! A person is measured by their courage, if they only know how to hide and put down others to raise themselves up, theyll be laughed at!]

[Ah ah, Legend of the Heroine is currently airing, so of course Director Li would stand with Y! However, there must be limits to gimmicks, are you looking down on our intelligence with that video of the barehanded fight with the wolf?! Humans can fight with wild animals?!]

Shi Lei laughed in extreme self-satisfaction, and spoke haughtily, [I imagine that the wolf must have been reared by Y himself, with the purpose of shooting this video! A tamed wolf would not attack its master, but Y still cruelly killed it! Just for some clout, hes worse than a beast!]

[That makes sense, Master Shi youve analyzed it well!]

[We support Master Shi, Y is too shameless! ]

[Sadistic freak, hes not human! Y is a disgrace and a failure!]

Lastly, Shi Lei posted a new Weibo post, [I am a Hero, starring myself, is about to hit the screens. Each punch connects and everything inside is real Kung Fu. Everyone, dont miss out!]

Shi Lei was already advancing into the movies and was a level above those stars who were still in dramas.

[Master Shi, we will support you!]

[We only trust Master Shis martial arts!]

What a scoundrel he is, putting you down only to promote his movie! said Xiao Feifei, her teeth grinding and face dark with anger.

Bast*rd, how low can you go! Sister Lins face was also full of rage, she had witnessed Ye Lingchen take on the wolf with her own eyes and had risked his own life doing so. However you cannot be hasty, you must maintain your image. You can insinuate, but you cannot explicitly insult him too much.

Sister Lin could tell that even Ye Lingchens mood had darkened.

Leave it to me, I have a plan. Ye Lingchen said simply, before replying on Weibo.

[Since youre that confident, why dont we have a spar?]

[You? Unimportant knave! You dont have the right to spar with me.] Shi Lei replied coldly.

[Youre all talk, but when push comes to shove you deflect? Could it be that youre afraid?]

[Ah ah, you certainly know how to put up a show. Youre not going to be able to goad me! Do you think youre an expert? I can take you on with one hand!]

[Then put up or shut up, why dont we make an appointment within the next 2 days?]

[Ah ah, you have no right!]

Ye Lingchens face darkened even more, this fellow was playing ball with him now, but he was only deflecting. Every reply was just ah ah, he fancied himself as haughty, but his words only put himself down.

[Thats right, what are you, that youre good enough to have a match with Master Shi?]

[A feckless nobody like you, youre just trying to use Master Shi for clout!]

It was obviously Shi Lei that was using Ye Lingchen for clout, but the tables had been flipped on Ye Lingchen.

[Everyone keep going! Overwhelm him! Destroy him!]

Shi Lei himself occasionally threw a few choice sentences in, to continue to fan the flames of the audience. He mostly stayed on the sidelines, laughing coldly and sniping at times, occasionally even leading a new attack!

Apart from Shi Leis fans and the spammers, the others were just joining in on the fun.

The internet was a very large platform, and as long as one had a computer to hide behind, nobody could ever know who you were. Therefore, a lot of people could let loose, and make baseless accusations and hurtful comments online, or talk about national affairs.

This breed of person was colloquially referred to as a keyboard warrior, and they mostly had little to no sense of self. Their worth existed only online, and they took great pleasure in cyberbullying others.

Without regard to right or wrong, theyd launch ad hominem attacks first, since there was no responsibility to be borne.

Most importantly, the person whom they were attacking right now was a showoff like Y, and so the sense of satisfaction and privilege from doing so was unique and apparent.

Under such circumstances, if it were a star like Xiao Feifei, they definitely would not fight back or risk being labeled as a vixen or harlot for retaliating. Their carefully pruned reputation and standing would be destroyed immediately.

No matter how bitter the pill, they would have to swallow it.

However, these netizens were going against Ye Lingchen. Y was only one of his personas. He was a prodigy, was he going to suffer the indignity of being dragged down by plebeians?

Were they going to attack him with impunity?

Did they think he was going to take it with good grace?

Just because one was a movie star, they were hot sh*t?

This was not the time for reason. When others insulted and attacked you, they already decided to not be reasonable. The only proper response was when you are attacked by others, you retaliate until they are destroyed!

There is nothing under the sun that a prodigy like Ye Lingchen could not master.

No matter the contest, a prodigy would always come up on top, and mudslinging was no exception!

Ye Lingchen immediately got on Baidu and began to research how to mud-sling and insult people.

Xiao Feifei and Sister Lin watched, dumbfounded. They traded glances, their faces marked with worry.

From his demeanor, Ye Lingchen was gathering his strength to launch an all-out assault with the masses of keyboard warriors on Weibo!

Lingchen, dont be hasty. Even if you didnt reveal your face, your popularity as Y did not come easily. Dont throw away your image. Xiao Feifei could not help but speak out and remind him.

Miss Feifei, just watch! The shows about to begin! Ye Lingchen smiled slightly. His insulting proficiency had grown from its original 10% to 100%!

If there were rankings to insulting people, he was now the king of it!

He opened Weibo, where the war of words was still raging.

Y had not spoken for a while now, but Lei Shi was still scheming, leading his fans and the spammers to assault Ye Lingchens Weibo account!

[Whats wrong? Now that youve been exposed, you dare not speak out?]

[Wheres Y? Come out!]

[If you cant stand the heat, get out of the kitchen! Run away while you still can!]

[There are still dumbf*cks who support Y? You cant tell that hes a fraud?]

An entire page of insults drowned out Ys fans, they could not fight back.

Director Li had even opened up channels with people, to ask Shi Lei to delete the post, but Shi Lei refused to pay him heed.
