I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 171 Becoming an Apprentice (36)

Because Tianyuan does not have its own Dream Weavers Association, one must go to a place with a Dream Weavers Association to conduct a ranking assessment.

Once the rating is completed, he can be upgraded from a beginner to an apprentice, and the platform can grant him more privileges. Some groups will even risk sanctions to trade with him because of his potential.

In addition, the Dream Maker platform will also open a rating system, where some minor Star Lords will anonymously play and rate the entries. High-scoring entries will receive additional recommendations and traffic support.

High-level dream weavers receive preferential treatment everywhere, especially in Wenchang City.

Some tutoring centers even hire people to develop promotional dreamscapes in order to promote their schools.

Furthermore, in order to expand their influence, they even used illegal means to forcibly pull students into their dreams through various methods, implanting in them the idea that they absolutely had to attend this tutoring class, or they would be doomed if they didn't.

So, as soon as Chen Yu entered the spacious and bright Dream Makers Association, he saw slogans everywhere.

Creating unauthorized dreams is a crime. Please publish your dreams on designated platforms.

Please do not include overly strong suggestions in your dreams; please adhere to the guidelines for dream architects.

Looking at these slogans, Chen Yu felt that the situation here was quite serious.

The Dream Makers Association has no law enforcement power, only advisory power, so there are many things they can't do. They can only advise dream makers to comply, but they can't force them to do so.

Standing at the front desk, Chen Yu and his two companions carefully reviewed the registration and upgrade process. Liu Qing complained, "Registration is free, but to go from entry-level to apprentice, you need to create a dream with a score of 70 within three months, and then there's a 2,000 yuan certification fee? And you need to create a dream with a score of 85 or higher within three months to upgrade to level two? The level two certification fee is 20,000 yuan? They're practically robbing us!"

"But there are also many advantages." Wang Chuyun flipped through the documents, subconsciously rubbing the little hamster's head. "Entry-level users can log in to the Dream Maker platform to buy things, but because of the trade lock, there's not much to buy. Trainees can be promoted, but because of the trade lock, there aren't many areas available for promotion. Level 2 users can be recommended for employment, but because of the trade lock, there aren't many places to go... Looking at it this way, it seems a bit shady. But this price is a fixed price, there's nothing we can do about it."

Chen Yu, meanwhile, looked at the expenses and wondered whether he should make free certification a company benefit.

Any employee who wants to advance can be picked up and dropped off here by the company free of charge for qualification certification.

In this way, their enthusiasm was boosted, and he circumvented the restrictions of the Contract Star Lord, effectively increasing the wages of his employees while also spending his own money.

perfect.

With that in mind, he immediately took a number and, while waiting for his turn, contacted Luo Tong, saying directly: "Fire everyone!"

Luo Tong: [Ah!]

Chen Yu: [Then we'll hire them back.]

Luo Tong: [Huh?]

Chen Yu: [Don't forget to send out the compensation. After you get back, add this clause to the contract: all expenses for employees to go to the nearby city for Dream Weaver qualification certification will be waived.]

Luo Tong: […President Chen, I understand!]

Chen Yu: [I don't care what you understand, just don't understand! Now go and do as I say, don't change a single word!]

Luo Tong: [Okay! I will definitely do as you say, Mr. Chen!]

All members of Tianyuan Agricultural Machinery Factory and Chenguang Co., Ltd. were fired that day. The commotion was so great that even Zhong Zheng came over to inquire about the situation.

However, after learning that the workers had been signed new contracts with even better terms right from the start, Zhong Zheng felt like he was getting senile. Knowing that Chen Yu had also given them an extra month's compensation, he looked at his empty pockets and then at the workers holding their red envelopes, beaming with excitement, and Zhong Zheng wanted to go back to the factory.

But Chen Yu, what are you doing?

He then noticed a visibly improved morale in the factory. This bonus directly injected them with boundless energy, and they began frantically tightening screws, making external parts, and researching new equipment, creating a bustling and energetic scene.

Seeing this, Zhong Zheng understood.

Chen Yu, do you have new plans again?

Chen Yu, who was in Wenchang City, immediately felt a chill, which then dissipated.

He immediately activated the "Inquiry into the Heart Technique," clearing away the distracting thoughts in his mind so that he could focus on the current situation and not be disturbed by trivial matters.

He doesn't know if it's because he's too sensitive to "spur-of-the-moment" moments, but he now feels uncomfortable every now and then, making him realize that this skill urgently needs improvement.

However, he wasn't quite sure how to improve the Star Lord title skills, so he could only go back and ask Teacher Zhao, who also had the title.

Taking advantage of this time, he both tempered his Dao heart and used the Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound to cultivate his physical body, unwilling to let this opportunity pass by.

Wang Chuyun and Liu Qing immediately entered a state of cultivation, constantly improving their weak points, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

Moreover, everyone has been eating and sleeping well lately, and their magical energy supply is abundant. They are all full of energy and their cultivation is becoming increasingly smooth.

An hour later, Chen Yu opened his eyes when he felt his phone vibrate, knowing it was his turn.

Holding the number tag, Chen Yu didn't disturb Wang Chuyun and Liu Qing, who were already immersed in their cultivation world, and walked to the window.

The person in charge of the service window was a kind older sister. After confirming Chen Yu's information, she smiled and said, "That's really impressive. You've already completed the registration as a second-year high school student and are now starting the internship certification process. Your total score is 388, which is average for a second-year high school student, but you have a bright future ahead of you."

Flipping through the dreams Chen Yu had previously created, she looked at the records and said, "Hmm... You've completed several dreams. Within three months, if you get a score of 7 or higher, you'll be certified as a trainee dream weaver. Let me see, your best achievement is... You are Chen Guang!"

The clerk's sudden voice startled Chen Yu.

If it weren't for the good soundproofing here, the neighbors might have been startled too.

The flustered clerk immediately waved her hand in apology, then excitedly said, "Is it really Chenguang? I'm a fan of yours!"

"No way, I didn't post my dream here."

“I work part-time as a reviewer, and I occasionally get the task of reviewing dreams. I reviewed your dream, and it was really interesting, so I banned it in Wenchang City.”

"...No, why?"

"Dreams that can be published in Wenchang City must be dreams that can improve your score. The dream I reviewed for you cannot improve your score, so there's nothing I can do about it. However, I personally acknowledge your dream-making ability and am certain that it can reach a score of seven or higher, so I will issue you a trainee dream architect license."

The older sister reached out and tapped Chen Yu's phone, and a large amount of dreamlike light flowed into it, giving his new phone some new functions.

Looking at the phone whose form had been altered by magic, Chen Yu smiled and said, "Thanks."
