The Heart of Dreams Experience Hall sees a massive turnout, with hopeful players braving long queues for a chance to play. Debate brews among the gathered crowd over game strategies, class selection, and the limited availability of the experience slots. As tensions linger between veteran fans and newcomers, the arrival of the beloved streamer Yin Yin draws significant attention to the scene. She begins conducting interviews, catching the dedicated fans by surprise as she focuses her coverage on the bustling hall.

Although a faint fragrance drifted from the young girl beside him, causing his face to redden slightly.

"It is almost your turn. How are you holding up?" Yin Yin continued, her tone effortless and casual.

"Nervous, excited, thrilled..." Zhao Fan answered.

"Do you have any comments regarding the Heart of Dream Experience Hall, a joint venture between Pingyun and Heart of Myriad Spirits?"

"I just want to express my gratitude to Pingyun Group and Heart of Myriad Spirits for providing me with this opening..."

The young man standing behind him finally reached his limit. "Dude, enough with the thank yous! It is your turn now..."

Zhao Fan shot him a sharp glare, before turning his gaze expectantly toward Yin Yin, who had also fallen quiet.

"Goddess Yin Yin, would you mind if I took a photo with you?"

"Of course! It is perfect timing, actually, as I am heading into the Experience Hall for a live stream. We can go together."

Upon hearing this, even though the young man behind him looked somewhat disgruntled, Zhao Fan stepped toward the counter, his eyes sparkling with delight.

The Experience Hall was quite expansive and featured a sleek, mechanical, sci-fi aesthetic. Public lounge areas were situated on one side, stocked with various refreshments and snacks.

As the pair neared the counter, a voice piped up, "Please wait a moment. You may begin your experience as soon as the current participants depart. Also, Miss, you cannot enter out of turn without waiting in the queue. However, if you are just here to lounge, that is perfectly acceptable. We provide complimentary tea and beverages."

Zhao Fan scanned the area behind the counter and noted three individuals.

Two young women wearing professional smiles stood there, having issued the prompt; he recognized them as the staff he had observed from across the room. The third was a young man seated further back, occupied with his phone. Because he was positioned behind the counter, he had been difficult to spot from a distance.

Catching the sound of someone approaching, the young man glanced up. His eyes went wide with surprise when he spotted Goddess Yin Yin standing next to Zhao Fan. "Yin Yin?"

The goddess stared at the individual before her, momentarily dazed. She parted her lips. "Li Shu? What are you doing here? I thought you were..."

Zhao Fan watched the man with a wary eye.

Li Shu, however, seemed unfazed by Zhao Fan's scrutiny. "They were short-handed for the launch, so I came to assist. Yin’s school belle, it has been a long time! You seem to have been doing quite well since graduation."

Zhao Fan finally connected the dots.

"I have been doing well, haha," Yin Yin laughed. "I heard from mutual classmates that you passed the Breeder examination. That is remarkable—congratulations! I might need to lean on your expertise in the future."

"Oh, nonsense. My abilities are quite mundane; it is only that Bro Ping sees some value in me."

"Haha, since when did you become so humble?"

Zhao Fan felt a bitter mix of envy and inadequacy. He knew that online, amongst the keyboard warriors, Breeders—regardless of being Low-level or Intermediate Level—were often dismissed as insignificant or labeled as parasites. Yet, holding such a status and certification guaranteed entry into an entirely different echelon of society. This was especially jarring given how young this guy was.

Zhao Fan never got the chance to explore these thoughts. Just then, an opening became available. The receptionist handed Zhao Fan a sensor, and a staff member led him into the designated room.

Watching Zhao Fan walk away, Li Shu chuckled and remarked, "Well, well, Yin’s school belle has quite the following now. It looks like you are well on your way to becoming a massive star..."

"I am merely a minor internet personality; I would hardly label myself a star. Besides," Yin Yin gestured toward the camera in her hand, "I am currently live streaming. If you say things like that, my audience might laugh themselves senseless." She remained very careful, however; with the exception of Zhao Fan earlier, Li Shu was kept out of the camera's frame throughout the entire encounter. Yin Yin was very discreet regarding certain matters.

Because of this, the live stream’s chat section began flooding with comments about the new voice that had appeared off-camera:

"Yin Yin is the true star!"

"Oh no, has our Yin Yin been swindled? Didn’t she only just graduate? How can her classmate already be a Breeder? That has to be a lie, right?"

"Even if he is one, he is likely just a Low-level Breeder. Nothing worth bragging about."

Li Shu, however, hadn't put much thought into it. "How is that not being a star? Every time I tune into your stream, you have over a million concurrent viewers. Even some legit celebrities pull in fewer numbers than that when they stream."

A smile hovered on Yin Yin’s lips. "You actually find the time to watch my broadcasts?"

"Of course! I even picked up some monster-grinding tricks for the Heart of Dreams from watching your streams. I am telling you, even Bro Ping admits you are better in that specific department."

Yin Yin’s eyes brightened. "He plays as well?"

Li Shu glanced at the camera and nodded with a grin, though he refrained from expanding on that point. "So, you are here doing an outdoor stream of our facility? You really should swing by and hang out more often when your schedule permits."

"Haha, with you saying that, I can breathe a sigh of relief. As long as I don’t get banned, I will be happy."

"Do not worry," Li Shu said, patting his chest reassuringly. "I cannot speak for everywhere, but here and within the Heart of Myriad Spirits, as long as you do not attempt to enter a private room or Bro Ping’s lab, you are free to roam. You haven’t been here before, have you? You really should experience the Heart of Phoenix; it is truly spectacular."

"Really?"

While Yin Yin was clearly enjoying her conversation with Li Shu, the viewers in her live stream were growing restless:

"Yin Yin, stop chatting! It’s rare for you to do an outdoor stream. Hurry up and show us the inside of this Heart of Dream Experience Hall! I’m already planning a trip to Linzhou just to visit this place..."
