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

Chapter 430 Fate, Wonderful Beyond Words (46)

Instead of playing the match again, Cao Zheng chose to spectate, joining the others as a spectator to watch the entire game.

After watching for only a short while, Cao Zheng realized that these contestants were of an exceptionally high level.

Although "The Big Capitalist" is just a casual dream world, it surprisingly has a lot more operations and various details in real-time mode.

All players think in seconds, because from the moment the dice are thrown to the moment they land and the moment the character finishes their turn, it is exactly one second.

Then, the pop-up and feedback of the event also take exactly one second. These two seconds are called the window period, which is also the time for players to observe the situation on the field and make a choice.

They need to determine the stock's trend within those two seconds, check the situation of other players, understand the items, cards, and access information held by others, and then react quickly and make a swift judgment.

And this is just a beginner-level operation.

In "Big Capitalist", players can build card factories and produce two top-tier cards: the split cash card and the split deposit card.

As the names suggest, these two cards allow you to designate a specific person and then split cash or savings with that person.

When you're lucky, you can close the gap between each other in one go, but you need to convert all your cash into savings or vice versa beforehand.

This operation must also be completed within one second, but the opponent will also be able to detect your intentions in time and use a stealing or rebounding card to defend in advance.

Using cards also needs to be done within this window, and within those two seconds, you need to calculate the other party's intentions, plan your escape route, and then proceed to the next step.

After observing intently for a while, one of my roommates couldn't help but say, "This is too much! I suddenly feel like I've never played this dream before."

"I feel the same way. Many of my tips and tricks were actually just basic operations. I thought I was really amazing."

"The plan changes every two seconds. Are all the players here monsters?"

"Of course I'd participate! Winning a loan of 2,000 yuan is enough; I'd participate too."

"Exactly, the sooner you win, the sooner you can enjoy it."

"The one we're watching is a Foundation Establishment expert, right? A normal Qi Refining player shouldn't be this powerful."

After observing how others performed, Cao Zheng realized that geniuses exist everywhere, and this place was no exception.

While they were pondering how to break the deadlock, the dormitory head gave a wry smile, patted Cao Zheng on the shoulder, and said, "Forget it, there's nothing wrong with joining the army. Maybe you can even get promoted when you come back."

"Me too. Actually, my grandfather's life of taking borderline jobs is not bad. At least he is not lonely in his old age, and the sunset is still beautiful."

"They can eat pig feed too."

Waving his hand, Cao Zheng asked the three, "Who are we?"

"A college student who wants a loan but doesn't know how?" the dorm leader asked, puzzled.

"The preceding modifiers are unnecessary; just say you're a college student. We've emerged from countless students; how could a mere dream possibly stop us from taking out a loan?"

"You make it sound very impressive, but I have a feeling we're unlikely to win. You've seen it yourself, the others seem to be going a bit too far."

"That's not the point. Don't be intimidated by them; they're not actually that good. As long as you keep in mind the rhythm of the window and keep track of everyone's condition during the game, it's not that difficult. More importantly, I suspect the others are playing as a team."

The dorm leader was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "No wonder they can move so fast, does each of them actually have a team behind them?" "Yeah, winning a game gives you a loan limit of 2,000, and it's interest-free. Who wouldn't want such a good deal? I feel like they were a team before, which is why they were able to assemble it so quickly and then come here to fleece people."

The dorm leader considered the possibility for a moment, then nodded and said, "I think you're right."

"Then what do we do?" asked Cao Zheng, the roommate who was close to his grandfather. "Do you have a good idea?"

Before anyone knew it, Cao Zheng had become the second-in-command of the dormitory, and even the dormitory head had started asking for his opinion.

Cao Zheng flipped through the class schedule and looked up information, eventually finding an old book in the school library: "The Art of Cheating and Anti-Cheating".

In the book's index, Cao Zheng saw that it was a book about cheating on exams and how to prevent it. Much of the content was outdated, but one method was particularly useful.

This method can connect the primordial spirits of several cultivators in a short period of time, thereby achieving information communication at the microsecond level.

This method allows groups of up to five people to temporarily merge their thoughts, making them seem like one person.

However, this method also has its drawbacks, namely that the practice time should not be too long, otherwise it will put a great burden on the primordial spirit.

Moreover, the author of this technique is still alive, so you need to obtain authorization from him to use it.

After watching it online, the dorm leader scrolled to the end and exclaimed in surprise, "This person is also from Tianyuan, and even his name has the same '正' radical as yours. Tianyuan really produces talented people!"

“Yes,” Cao Zheng said, looking at the author’s name. “Zhong Zheng… I’ll contact him and see if I can get this technique.”

Contacting the other party was not difficult. Cao Zheng had just made contact with his teacher, who immediately helped him get in touch with Zhong Zheng.

When Zhong Zheng learned that Cao Zheng wanted to learn "The Wonderful Method of Fusion and Application Related to the Primordial Spirit", or "The Wonderful Method of the Primordial Spirit" for short, he was stunned for a full five minutes before he remembered that he had written such a book.

"It's incredible that someone could find this book after all these decades. What do they want to learn about it?"

"I heard you want to play 'The Big Capitalist'," the teacher replied quickly.

Looking at the dice in his hand, Zhong Zheng realized that fate was indeed wonderful.

The authorization was originally supposed to be charged, but since the other party was from Tianyuan and had a connection with him, Zhong Zheng didn't mind the other party using his cultivation method for free.

Lifting his skull, Zhong Zheng's primordial spirit flew out, stared at his brain for a while, and finally found his past memories, extracting the "Primordial Spirit Wonderful Method".

Zhong Zheng first made a copy of the technique, then handed it to his teacher before turning back to continue rolling the dice.

Having obtained the "Mysterious Method of Primordial Spirit" and knowing that the technique was free, Cao Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and began to study it seriously.

This practice requires multiple people to cultivate together, eating, sleeping, and even using the toilet together—basically, everything must be done together.

With prolonged practice, one can achieve a connection of minds, and then understand the other person's meaning with just a glance. After that, one's spirit can be briefly connected, allowing for rapid communication.

After reading it carefully, Cao Zheng nodded and said, "Brothers, let's practice."

"practice!"

"We practiced to increase the loan amount!"
