The third round began swiftly. This time, Red White Rose adjusted his mindset and entered the battle with a sense of determination. This made Song Fan smile and remark, “His level of skill is quite high, but his condescending attitude toward female players is why he lost so badly.”
“What if he was prepared from the start?” Xu Yuan, still on the video call, asked as he watched Song Fan’s gameplay.
Song Fan chuckled, “He’s still going to lose. After all, his opponent is me.”
Xu Yuan burst into laughter. Song Fan usually appeared cold and composed, but in the game, she showed a mischievous side.
Red-White Rose’s control had indeed improved compared to earlier rounds, but the consecutive losses had made him increasingly hesitant. Every time he made a move, there was a half-second hesitation, giving Song Fan an opening.
However, the World Channel began filling up with comments in foreign languages, all disparaging Sunflower.
“Women shouldn’t play games.”
“She probably got first place by sleeping with someone.”
“She must have found a guy to play for her. How else could she have such skill?”
“Data shows that women have no talent in games.”
“Even if Red White Rose lost, he lost to a man. He didn’t lose to that Sunflower.’
These comments asserted that a man must have played the game, and Sunflower couldn’t possibly possess such skill. The derogatory language against women was reprehensible.
Some observant users noticed that the commenters’ IDs and locations were all from E Country players and friends of Red White Rose. No wonder they were making these allegations.
Xu Yuan scoffed, “They can’t beat you, so they resort to slander. How shameless.”
With that, he redirected the video call to his computer. Fortunately, Song Fan had aimed the camera at her keyboard, so only her upper body and hands were visible in the video, and her face remained concealed.
“I want to clear your name,” Xu Yuan declared.
Song Fan readily agreed. She wanted everyone to know that women could excel in gaming.
Xu Yuan turned the video call into a live broadcast, quickly becoming the most popular live stream in the gaming community.
Many viewers flocked to watch Song Fan’s gameplay, which closely matched her in-game actions. Comments even appeared on the World Channel through the computer, confirming that Sunflower was indeed a highly skilled female gamer.
Female gamers were particularly jubilant, as someone had finally proved that women could excel in gaming. This solid evidence dispelled the doubts surrounding their abilities.
At this point, the foreign-language posts on the World Channel ceased. They hadn’t anticipated such a swift response from Sunflower, rendering their comments baseless.
A wave of backlash flooded the World Channel, with female players hurling insults back at the detractors. In the world channel of ‘Future City,’ speaking is unrestricted, except in cases of verbal abuse.
The administrators, appearing indifferent, allowed the female players to express themselves freely. Song Fan understood why.
This was because 90% of the ‘Future City’ game was created by women. When Star Technologies was founded, one-fifth of its core members were women. They couldn’t tolerate the current situation.
Song Fan’s gaze turned stern, and she no longer had the patience for gaming. She defeated Red White Rose in less than ten seconds, displaying the same fierceness as in her previous match against Grassi.
Sunflower had indisputably triumphed in all three games. Red White Rose was seething with rage, almost smashing his keyboard.
As everyone celebrated their victory, a message appeared on the World Channel and was pinned at the top for ten minutes.
“There’s no competitive activity in the world that women can’t participate in. Games, sports, intelligence—women can participate and achieve results because this world is made up of women and men. If a competitive activity excludes women, then it is a failure and shouldn’t exist. Gender equality means obtaining the same rights and shouldering the same responsibilities. Women should never be underestimated.”
The author of this message was Song Fan. The World Channel fell into silence, leaving the players unsure of what to say.
It wasn’t until two minutes later that someone sent a message, “Women should never be underestimated!”
Once that message appeared, more and more people began to share it on the World Channel. Soon, it occupied the entire chat, becoming a powerful declaration..
