Having just become the Heavenly Emperor, my sister exposed my Heavenly Court during a live stream.

Chapter 20: The Debunking Streamer Gets Debunked Himself?

The screen split in two. On the left was Jiang Yu, and on the right appeared a man who looked to be around thirty years old, wearing black-rimmed glasses, with a serious face and sharp eyes. He was none other than the anti-counterfeiting expert, Ga Zi.

His background appears to be a studio-like place, with various instruments and props displayed on shelves behind him, giving him a very professional look.

"Hello Jiang Yu, this is Ga Zi."

Gazi got straight to the point, his tone scrutinizing and questioning, "First of all, let me state that my connection with you is not directed at you personally, but rather, in the spirit of science and truth-seeking, to raise reasonable questions and demands for verification regarding what you have shown in your live stream and the so-called cultivation phenomena you have claimed to be. I think this is also what the vast majority of viewers influenced by your live streams hope to see."

His words placed him on the moral high ground as a defender of science and a representative of the audience, making a strong first impression.

Jiang Yu remained calm, even with a faint smile: "Hello, Ga Zi, it's an honor to meet you. Please feel free to ask me any questions. I will answer what I can. I'm happy to cooperate in verifying what I can."

"good!"

Gazi pushed up his glasses, his gaze behind the lenses becoming even sharper. "I saw the levitation you just demonstrated. It was impressive. But as a debunking anchor, I've seen far too many anti-gravity illusions created using visual illusions, hidden support points, or even advanced special effects software. To rule out these possibilities, I'd like to conduct a few simple, publicly verifiable experiments on camera."

"Okay." Jiang Yu nodded.

"First, the verification of strength."

Gazi picked up something from the side and showed it to the camera. It was a dark, fist-sized metal ball. "This is a solid high-carbon steel ball, extremely hard, and weighs about five kilograms. Even if an average adult male were to smash it with force, it would be almost impossible to deform it. I'd like to ask you, without using any tools or external force, to try to change its shape using only your hands. For example... squeezing it flat."

As he spoke, he deliberately tapped the steel ball on the table, producing a dull, solid sound, and then measured its diameter with calipers, showing it to the camera to prove its authenticity and specifications.

The comments section immediately erupted with discussion:

"A solid steel ball? Squeezed flat by hand? How is that possible?"

"Gazi's really setting a difficult challenge for you! Even a hydraulic press would need some effort with this thing, right?"

"Let's see how Sister Yu handles this. If she can't, then..."

"I believe in Sister Yu! A master of the Divine Bridge Realm, squeezing a steel ball is nothing to her, is it?"

"Stop bragging. Human strength has its limits; this is clearly beyond human capabilities."

Jiang Yu looked at the steel ball and smiled. If she were still in the Bitter Sea Realm, she might have needed to exert some effort, but now, in the Divine Bridge Realm, the quality and quantity of her internal power far surpassed what she had before. This mere steel ball…

"Sure," she said calmly, "but I don't have any steel balls like that here. How about this, Guzi, you name a sufficiently hard metal object that I might have in my room, and I'll give it a try."

Gazi pondered for a moment and said, "Okay. Please point the camera at the item you are going to use, and make sure there is no editing or camera switching during the process."

Jiang Yu did as instructed, taking her phone and walking around the room before finally stopping in the kitchen. She opened a cabinet and took out a brand-new, unused cast iron frying pan. "Is this okay? It's pure cast iron; the thickness and hardness should be sufficient."

Gazi examined the frying pan carefully through the camera lens and nodded: "Okay. Please begin. Please note that I need to see your fingers touching the pan and the entire process of the pan deforming; there can be no obstruction."

"no problem."

Jiang Yu set up her phone, making sure the camera could clearly capture close-ups of her hands and the wok. Then, she picked up the heavy frying pan with her right hand, and extended her index and middle fingers with her left hand, bringing them together.

Under the gaze of tens of thousands of eyes, she gently placed two fingers on the thickest part of the bottom of the frying pan.

There was no luck, no shouting, and not even a change in expression.

Then, she pinched it slightly with two fingers.

"Creak—!!!"

A sickening metallic screech echoed clearly through the microphone throughout the entire live stream!

Under Jiang Yu's two slender fingers, the thick, cast-iron frying pan's bottom, like soft clay, instantly caved in and twisted inwards from the point of contact, forming a shockingly deep pit! The metal edges were even slightly curled up from the pressure!

Jiang Yu loosened her grip and held the badly deformed frying pan in front of the camera, showing it from both sides. The dent was clearly visible, and there were even subtle marks from her fingers on the edges.

The entire live stream room fell silent once again.

For the first time, Gazi's expression changed noticeably, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

After a brief pause, the comments section went completely wild!

"What the hell... you're trying to squeeze a cast iron pot with your bare hands?!"

"Two fingers! Just two fingers!"

"This pot is genuine! I bought the same one, it's incredibly sturdy!"

"This power... is it even human?!"

"Cultivation! This is definitely the power of cultivation!"

"Gazi's face turned pale, haha!"

"Where's the guy who said manpower is sometimes limited? Come out and show yourselves?"

"Sister Yu is awesome! Now let's see who dares to say it's special effects!"

Jiang Yu casually tossed the deformed iron pot aside, as if he had only done something insignificant, and looked at Gazi on the other side of the screen, his tone still calm: "Gazi, first verification, is that enough?"

Gazi took several deep breaths before he could barely calm his turbulent emotions.

He stared intently at the deformed iron pot in the camera lens, then glanced at Jiang Yu's nonchalant expression, his heart filled with turmoil.

This is absolutely not some visual trick or prop! The sound, the distorted texture, cannot be faked! But... it completely violates his understanding of the physical and physiological limits!

"...Regarding strength, that's questionable for now." Ga Zi gritted his teeth, unwilling to admit defeat easily; he still had a backup plan. "But cultivators are said to not only possess immense strength, but also defenses far exceeding ordinary people, even being impervious to blades and spears. Do you dare to verify that?"

"Oh? How do you verify it?" Jiang Yu asked with great interest.

Gazi then pulled out a gleaming meat cleaver from the side. Judging from its material and blade, it was clearly a sharpened weapon. He said in a deep voice, "If you have truly achieved mastery in your cultivation and possess an extraordinary physique, then using this ordinary meat cleaver to forcefully chop at your arm shouldn't be able to break your skin. Do you dare to try it on the spot? Of course, for safety, you can choose to wear protective gear or..."

"No need," Jiang Yu interrupted him directly, her tone carrying a hint of impatience. "Too much trouble. Just do as you said, use a knife. But I have a knife here too."

She walked back to the living room, picked up a household stainless steel fruit knife from beside the fruit plate. Although it wasn't as professional as Ga Zi's, the blade was just as sharp.

She held the knife up to the camera, showing off its sharp edge, and even gently scraped it with her fingertip, making a soft hissing sound.

"This one will do," Jiang Yu said. "What do you need me to do? Where should I cut? How much force?"

Seeing her so nonchalant, even proactively asking for details, Ga Zi and all the viewers in the live stream were on tenterhooks. This was a real knife! It would draw blood!

Gazi's expression shifted, but he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Left forearm, the thickest part of the outer muscle. Use all your strength to chop it down vertically! I want to hear the sound and see the result!"

"Okay." Jiang Yu nodded without the slightest hesitation.

She rolled up her left sleeve, revealing her fair, smooth, and shapely forearm. Then, she gripped the fruit knife tightly in her right hand and raised it high.

Everyone in the live stream held their breath, and the chat quieted down. Some covered their eyes, while others stared wide-eyed.

Jiang Yu's eyes narrowed, and he swung his arm down!

"Clang—!!!"

A crisp, loud sound, like the clash of metal, suddenly rang out in the live broadcast room!

The sharp blade slashed fiercely at the outside of Jiang Yu's left arm! But the expected laceration and gushing blood didn't happen! Instead, a few tiny sparks flew out the moment the blade touched the skin!

Only a faint white mark remained on her fair skin, and it faded rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye! Her skin was as good as new, smooth and delicate!

Jiang Yu withdrew her arm and raised her left arm in front of the camera again, showing it from all 360 degrees. She even wiped the spot where she had been slashed with her right hand, confirming that not even the skin was broken.

"Clang!" She casually used the fruit knife to chop at the corner of the solid wood table next to her. A deep notch was immediately cut into the corner, and wood chips flew everywhere, proving the sharpness of the knife.

Then, she showed her undamaged left arm to the camera again.

"Do we need to verify anything else, Ga Zi?" she asked calmly, her tone devoid of any boasting, as if she had simply completed a simple test.

The live stream chat exploded!

"What did I just see? A knife slashing an arm? Sparks?!"

"Your skin is fine? Not even a red mark?"

"This level of defense...is it a tank?!"

"It's confirmed! This is definitely cultivation! Even the Iron Shirt and Golden Bell Cover techniques in martial arts novels aren't this outrageous!"

"Where's Gazi? Gazi, speak up!"

"Hahaha, Gazi's dumbfounded! He's speechless now, isn't he?"

"From today onwards, Sister Yu is my one and only goddess! Long live cultivation!"
