Hot Search Alert! The Princess Goes Viral Worldwide

The online audience was going absolutely wild, screaming with excitement.

A flurry of comments scrolled by.

[Did I just see what I think I saw? Was that all real?]

[Ahhhh, Gu Nanyan is so cool! Her lightness skill and hidden weapons - my poor heart can't take it! Is this even possible in real life?]

In an instant, the terms "Gu Nanyan lightness skill" and "hidden weapons" shot to the top of the trending topics, sparking discussions across the entire internet.

The moment he saw that Gu Nanyan was safe, Zhan Lingfeng's body went limp and he collapsed into his chair.

He had truly been terrified.

Thinking back to that split second when the tiger pounced, that fear of potentially losing Gu Nanyan, Zhan Lingfeng wished he could have taken her place.

He raised his hand to his forehead, somewhat surprised by his own reaction.

— Did he really care for her this much?

Le Xuanji was also watching the livestream at home, hugging Le's Mother and squealing. Her grandfather was elderly with poor health, so the family didn't let him watch for fear of shocking his heart.

"I knew it, I knew it! Nanyan is the most amazing, there's no way she'd be in any real danger. She's so awesome!"

Le Xuanji exclaimed, jumping up and down with excitement.

Meanwhile, Hua Ying'an was also watching Gu Nanyan's livestream. When she saw Gu Nanyan leap up and throw her embroidery needles, she suddenly recalled the scene of Gu Nanyan wielding a sword in the forest that day.

Her clothes fluttering, her presence majestic as the mountains and rivers.

She was a true female warrior!

Hua Ying'an's eyes turned red with emotion, too moved to speak. She knew that someone as clever and capable as Gu Nanyan could never die in a tiger's mouth.

The tiger had already been subdued by Gu Nanyan and lay limply on the ground.

Gu Nanyan had learned from animal trainers that animals, like humans, have acupoints wherever there are meridians.

Animals have many acupoints, but it's unnecessary to master them all. Remembering a few key points to subdue them is sufficient.

This tiger had been overpowered by Gu Nanyan, but its spirit remained unbroken. It glared at her with its huge eyes, roaring and trying to bite her.

Gu Nanyan stood before the tiger, looking down at it from above: "Do you submit?"

The tiger's roars were the only response.

[Oh my god, is she actually talking to the tiger? Can it understand her?]

[That's so silly.]

The online audience thought Gu Nanyan was being rather strange. Surely she wasn't still trying to tame the tiger? This was a wild tiger that could kill a person with one swipe of its paw.

If Gu Nanyan were smart, she'd leave immediately.

"It seems you're not willing to submit." Gu Nanyan bent down, tore off the hem of her jacket into two strips, and wrapped them around her hands, round and round.

The livestream audience watched in confusion, not understanding what she was doing.

Finally, after wrapping both hands and doing some quick warm-up exercises, Gu Nanyan spoke: "Little tiger, I hear you're a protected species now and can't be hunted freely. So I'll have to compromise... and beat you up instead."

As soon as the words left her mouth, Gu Nanyan leapt up over three meters high, then swung her fist, raining down blows on the tiger's head.

The livestream audience was stunned, taking a moment to process what they were seeing.

Gu- Gu Nanyan was actually beating up the tiger! It was too intense!

[Holy crap, she's a true heroine! This is insane!]

[Did you see that? Gu Nanyan's punches are so powerful, one hit nearly knocked the tiger's head sideways! I never believed the story of Wu Song fighting a tiger before, but now I do.]

[In ancient times we had Wu Song fighting tigers, now we have Nanyan pummeling tigers. Incredible!]

After punching non-stop for over half an hour, beating the tiger to within an inch of its life, Gu Nanyan finally stopped.

The cloth wrapped around her hands was stained red with blood - both the tiger's and her own.

Although she had wrapped her hands, Gu Nanyan was still injured. She had hit too hard, and the tiger's hide was tough and thick.

This was the downside of not having proper tools - everything had to be done with bare hands.

The tiger had now lost all its previous arrogance, whimpering pitifully at Gu Nanyan like a dejected house cat.

Gu Nanyan looked at it and asked: "Do you submit now?"

The tiger couldn't understand Gu Nanyan's words, but its body language and sounds were docile.

Gu Nanyan held out her hand in front of the tiger, and it nuzzled her with its nose.

Gu Nanyan knew that this time, it had truly submitted.

Although the tiger had submitted, Gu Nanyan didn't remove the embroidery needles from its body. Instead, she took out a handful of herbs from her pocket.

She had gathered these herbs along the way, which was why she had walked so slowly. Otherwise, she could have used her lightness skill to find the tiger much earlier.

Finding two stones, she ground up the herbs and applied them to the tiger's wounds.

The tiger seemed to understand that Gu Nanyan was helping it, staying obedient and even rubbing its head against her.

Seeing this scene, the online audience found it heartwarming, but some keen-eyed viewers noticed something more.

This Gu Nanyan had prepared medicinal herbs for treating injuries in advance, showing that she had a complete plan from the very beginning.

This woman was frighteningly intelligent.

Although Gu Nanyan had hit the tiger hard, they were actually just surface wounds. She had used the embroidery needles to stimulate acupoints, causing the tiger intense pain. Once the tiger submitted, Gu Nanyan removed the needles.

After the tiger regained its strength, it seemed a bit vengeful, baring its teeth at Gu Nanyan.

Gu Nanyan clenched her fist.

The tiger immediately became docile, lowering its head and walking to Gu Nanyan's side, rubbing against her leg.

Gu Nanyan grabbed the tiger's fur and jumped onto its back. "Let's go, little tiger. We're going to find some grass balls."

Watching Gu Nanyan ride the tiger, leaping through the forest, the online audience was going crazy.

It was beyond all imagination!

They had thought she would be killed by the tiger, but instead she had beaten it up;

They had expected a pitiful victim, but she turned out to be a mighty female warrior with iron fists;

They had imagined her starving on a deserted island, but here she was riding a huge tiger at lightning speed;

...

The audience was at a loss for words, with only two characters to express their feelings: Awesome!

Or three characters to convey their amazement: 666! (Chinese internet slang for "awesome")

With the big tiger's help, Gu Nanyan found the grass balls very easily. The tiger's sense of smell was keen, and after sniffing once, it led Gu Nanyan to a pile of grass balls - so many that she could barely carry them all.

After discovering the store, Gu Nanyan patted the tiger's head, telling it to go hunt on its own and come back to pick her up tomorrow.

When Gu Nanyan was in Great Qi, she had learned from animal trainers how to communicate with fierce beasts and could give simple commands to tigers.

After the tiger left, Gu Nanyan wrapped the grass balls in her jacket, slung them on her back, and walked step by step towards the store.

The so-called store was a two-story building made of wood and colored steel sheets, with a sign at the door that read "Store No. 5". Although rudimentary, it was a rare sight on this deserted island.

Inside the store were only two men in black, both wearing masks and looking bored.

They never imagined anyone would find this place.

Because this was in the center of the island, and it was only the first day - those timid contestants would never dare to venture towards the island's center.

Yet in the next moment, they saw a figure in white clothing slowly approaching.

The two men in black were shocked - someone had actually reached the center of the island!
