Chapter 564 Pre-match arrangements
"Legend has it that Lingxi Divine Monarch, who is now at Hehuan University, was unable to take the first step in his youth, and his faith in the Tao retreated time and time again."
"But even through these setbacks, he gradually found another path, and ultimately realized that only after gaining love can one be more affectionate, and only after being more affectionate can one be deeply affectionate, and only after being deeply affectionate can one forget love."
"To be able to love anyone, to tolerate anyone, and to have an equal and profound love for all living things in the world is the ultimate in forgetfulness. This is the path of supreme affection."
"Just this one improvement immediately caused the output of this practice to skyrocket several times again."
"Similar improvements have continued unabated over the years. It is this spirit of never-ending progress that has laid the foundation for the Hehuan Sect's rise in modern times."
Listening to Zhang Yu's talk about the history of dual cultivation techniques, Fu Ji said, "It seems that you are taking the lessons in the illusion quite seriously."
Zhang Yu said, "Of course. My original purpose was to collect real information about college students. Even in this illusion, I will still attend classes seriously and not miss any information."
"This college simulation is quite valuable. It has allowed me to learn a lot of extracurricular knowledge."
"Hmm... Although it's a little strange, I think I can still give it a try."
Since he had already paid the spirit coins with Ye Xingli, Zhang Yu then selected several different scripts to try.
After finishing the job, Zhang Yu also received news from Ye Xingli.
Ye Xingli: How's it going, junior? Did you gain anything?
Zhang Yu: Great harvest
Zhang Yu: I feel like my current level of expertise is so high that I’m a little scared myself.
Ye Xingli: Indeed, these scripts have captured some of the charm of college
Ye Xingli: But I always feel that it is not real enough, too bizarre, and too much of a college entertainment.
Ye Xingli: There is no work that can truly record real college life
Ye Xingli: The data inside is probably useless for reference.
Zhang Yu nodded slightly. "Real college life... I'm afraid no one pays attention to it."
"Or rather, among those who can enjoy this kind of spiritual world simulation service, very few people pay attention to real college life."
"I just treat college students as a kind of curious pastime, entertainment, or a way to temper my Dao heart."
Zhang Yu replied: Sister, you are right. These scripts can help us feel the temperament of some college students.
Zhang Yu: But if we want to refer to these to design refining products, I am afraid it is far from enough.
Ye Xingli: It seems that we still need to collect information from real college students
Zhang Yu recalled the scenes he had just seen in the illusion. His eyes moved slightly and he said, "Why not just buy it from the college students?"
"Select a group of people from all over the country, distributed in different regions on the second floor, and affiliated with the colleges and universities under the top ten."
"Let these college students use their cameras to record their daily lives and then sell them to us."
"This way, we only need to speed up the review of their videos and collect a large amount of first-hand intelligence on college students in a short period of time."
Ye Xingli: Good idea, let’s do it.
Ye Xingli: I can contact a group of people from my fans
Zhang Yu: I also know quite a few college students
Ye Xingli: Then we can collect them separately and summarize them in a month.
Zhang Yu: Yes
Zhang Yu was not in a hurry to finish collecting information early. After all, for him who had Tiangong Kaiwu, it didn't take much time to modify the design drawings.
On the contrary, information collection is more important. Only by providing enough and accurate information to Tiangong Kaiwu can Zhang Yu better obtain the design drawings he wants.
Then Zhang Yu launched a new task in the Songyang hometown group, asking college students to buy the daily life videos recorded by their eyes.
All of this immediately attracted the enthusiastic participation of countless college students.
"Do you want a soul cultivator?"
"My eye bones don't have enough storage. Can I sell them for just a few hours at a time?"
“Are there any requirements for image quality?”
Facing the questions from the college students, Zhang Yu answered a few questions, but felt that it was too time-consuming, so he handed it over to Fu Ji.
Zhang Yu: "Fuji, I want you to understand that, in short, collect data as truthfully and efficiently as possible."
Fu Ji: "What's the cost?"
Zhang Yu: "How much can a college student spend on daily life?"
"The rice benefits the school gives me, an outstanding student, every week are enough to feed them for a year."
Fu Ji: "Save as much as you can! You only earned a few spirit coins and you're already spending lavishly?"
Zhang Yu said, "After all, we are all from the same hometown. Don't be too harsh."
At the same time, many college students in the hometown group also became eager to take action after hearing this.
Hehuan University Lian Tianji: Are daily videos of college students not okay?
Shanhe University Blue Ridge: Do you collect videos of students who are on the upper echelons?
Zhang Yu: No, I only want college students.
After handing over the specific acquisition matters to Fu Ji, Zhang Yu immersed himself in the Taiqing territory and began today's simulated refining practice.
With his all-out training in the Taiqing Realm, Zhang Yu made rapid progress. He secretly estimated, "By the end of March, I'll be ready to begin refining the Taihao Holy Law Sword Formation."
…
Just when Zhang Yu and Ye Xingli were collecting information about college students.
In the laboratory of Lord Magnetism.
Looking at the brand new Dharmakaya before him, True Lord Magnetic Pole frowned repeatedly: "Why does it feel like... this design always has a college vibe?"
“Has my aesthetic sense declined?”
Lord Ci Ji Zhenjun plans to read more of the latest magic weapon design papers and maintain his own magic weapon aesthetic taste.
At this moment, the primary intelligent spirit in the laboratory sent her a reminder.
"Oh? Did Zhang Yu sign up for the design competition?"
"Well, it's about time I found him an introducer."
…
Inside Ye Xingli's laboratory.
Zhang Yu sent a new contract to Zi Yunzhen and three other assistants.
"The new contract doesn't have many changes, it just adds some confidentiality clauses. If everyone agrees, just sign it."
After all, Zhang Yu’s next Taihao Holy Law Sword Formation project does not need to go through review, so there is no need to announce it from time to time or leave traces everywhere.
He also took into account that his refining skills were becoming more and more proficient and his techniques were becoming stronger with each refining session.
Especially as he mastered more and more magic weapon blueprints, the refining efficiency bonus provided by the refining genius became higher and higher...
Zhang Yu decided to sign a confidentiality agreement with his assistants to prevent them from revealing too many details about the laboratory and causing unnecessary trouble.
Zi Yunzhen and the other two took a look at the confidentiality clause and were used to it.
After all, Zhang Yu's laboratory was not the first one they worked in, and it was normal for the laboratory to have various confidentiality clauses. After a quick glance, they signed the new contract under the witness of the gods.
Zhang Yu smiled with satisfaction at this scene and said, "Okay, everyone, let's hurry up and study."
"By the end of this month, I estimate I will begin the formal refining of the Taihao Holy Law Sword Formation."
Zi Yunzhen was shocked when she heard this. Su Yunni beside her was even more surprised and asked, "It's going to start at the end of March? Isn't it too soon? Can the early technical preparations be completed?"
Zhang Yu said calmly, "Don't worry about that. All you have to do is complete the knowledge required to be an assistant before the end of March and don't let the project fall behind."
"Once we complete the refining of the Taihao Holy Law Sword Formation, I will give everyone a bonus."
Seeing the three assistants looking both expectant and stressed, Zhang Yu didn't care.
After being in the Equipment Refining Department for more than a year and having visited the laboratories of several True Lords and Senior Sister Ye Xingli, Zhang Yu has come to understand more and more that high pressure is a normal condition in the laboratory.
Assistants always need to push and squeeze hard to force out their potential and not slow down the progress of the project.
Zi Yunzhen and the other two on the other side took a deep breath and also had no intention of refutation. After all, learning and experimenting at the same time under the pressure of the boss is a basic skill for weapon refiners.
Although 99% of the chores done by a laboratory assistant can perhaps be done by an excellent college student.
But as for the remaining 1% of miscellaneous tasks, and how to distinguish whether these miscellaneous tasks belong to the 1% or the 99%, one must have sufficient immortal skills and knowledge reserves.
Before officially starting to refine the Taihao Holy Law Sword Formation, a lot of learning is essential.
In order to get the bonus that Zhang Yu mentioned, and more importantly, to get a resume for a military-grade project, Zi Yunzhen and the other two put in their best efforts.
Not long after Zhang Yu finished painting the pie in the sky for his assistants, he received another message from the True Lord of Magnetic Pole.
Lord Magnet: Do you have time?
It was rare to receive a message from the master, so Zhang Yu immediately stopped what he was doing and replied: Yes.
Magnet Master: Let me tell you about the design competition
Magnetism Master: This year's design competition judges include one from Wanfa University, one from King Kong University, and three from Netherworld University, Demon University, and White Bone University.
True Lord of Magnetic Pole: The one on the Wanfa side is True Lord of String Sound. I have already greeted him for you.
Magnet Master: There are four judges left. You need to prepare some gifts.
Zhang Yu: Do you want to give more gifts?
Lord Magnetism: Nonsense, what design competition is there without gifts?
Zhang Yu: What to give?
Lord Magnet: What else can you give besides spirit coins?
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "How direct..."
Magnet Master: I will send you the price list of these four people. Please tell me when you have prepared the spirit coins.
Zhang Yu looked at the price list and felt a pang in his heart. "Four Nascent Soul True Lords, they're going to charge me over 100 spirit coins in total? Sigh, it's not much for a Nascent Soul True Lord... but it's too expensive for a college student."
Zhang Yu thought he had enough money for the future, but he never expected that he would have to spend such a huge amount of money.
Zhang Yu: Can it be cheaper?
Magnet Master: This is already the reserve price.
Magnet Master: If you were not a student of Wanfa and my disciple, you would not even have the chance to send spirit coins.
Magnet Master: Remember, never give less than the number I give you. If you give less than this, they will definitely punish you.
Magnet Master: Don’t go too high than this number, or it will ruin the market.
Zhang Yu asked: After sending the spiritual coins, are you guaranteed to get a military certificate?
Magnet Master: After giving it to you, it gives you a chance to compete fairly with other gift givers... for a higher ranking.
