Chapter 61 Registering as a Teacher, Buying Traffic
Virtual universe, Heilongshan Island.
This is an ancient city, with streets paved with large, well-cut stones. The passersby are of different appearances, heights, and races, and most of them wear simple gray clothes. Each of them has a small elf on their shoulder.
Swish!
Zhou Ze suddenly appeared in the crowd, and on his shoulder sat a Babata, which was only the size of a cup. Babata was also dressed in the same green clothes and was extremely cute.
"Babata, teleport me directly to the 'Master Teacher' organization's headquarters," Zhou Ze instructed the island.
"Okay," Babata replied.
The next moment, Zhou Ze's consciousness went black, and then he found himself in a large hall.
The entire hall is comparable in size to a city on Earth. At the very center stands a sculpture of a person with his left hand behind his back and his right hand holding a book, exuding the air of a teacher.
"That's the creator of 'Master Teacher'!" Babata pointed at the sculpture and said, "I can only find that he created 'Master Teacher'. I can't find any other information. I can only hear about his legends sporadically through some forums."
"Teachers under the 'Famous Teacher' institution are divided into internal and external, certified and uncertified. Regardless of whether they are internal or external teachers, a certified one-star famous teacher must pass at least 10 positive reviews from students and undergo official review!"
"To apply to become an official internal teacher, one's ability must be at least at the Hengxing level, and one will need to receive standardized and rigorous training. The price is also relatively uniform..."
"The quality of external personnel varies greatly. Teachers and students who are not official internal renowned teachers or do not have star ratings are all considered external personnel."
"Let's go register over there..." Babata said, pointing in a direction.
Zhou Ze flew in the direction Babata pointed and soon arrived in front of an exquisite metal table, where a strangely-looking staff member sat.
Upon Zhou Ze's arrival, the staff member smiled and said, "Hello, you're here to register, right? Teacher registration costs 1000 Black Dragon Coins, and student registration costs 100 Black Dragon Coins."
"Yes, register for both," Zhou Ze said calmly.
"Okay." The staff were not surprised by Zhou Ze's request, as many of them were both students and teachers.
After registration, the staff member asked, "Do you need to have it notarized? Notarization will get you more traffic recommendations!"
"Of course, you can also pay for data traffic yourself. You can check the specific prices on the website."
Zhou Ze raised an eyebrow, feeling a bit like paying for internet traffic on Earth.
"No notarization is required."
After refusing, Zhou Ze went to the side and logged into the "Famous Teacher" webpage.
The webpage has two main sections: "Teachers" and "Students".
The "Teachers" section is where students can find teachers.
The "Students" section is where teachers actively seek out students.
After Zhou Ze had roughly checked out the two sections and familiarized himself with them a bit, he said to Babata, "Babata, conceal my strength level."
Are you kidding me? Only a fool would ask him to teach them something when they only have the strength of a second-tier planetary-level being.
"Zhou Ze, this organization is practically a monopoly. There are countless teachers and students throughout Heilongjiang Province. If you want to stand out, buying recommendations and traffic is unavoidable!"
"If your goal is to become a certified master teacher..."
Babata reminded him.
"I haven't made any money, and I still have to pay out a portion of it first. I'm speechless..." Zhou Ze complained with a laugh.
Babata couldn't help but laugh and said, "If you are an official insider or a certified expert, you will automatically receive traffic recommendations, and even after notarization, you will still receive a small amount of traffic recommendations."
"You can't register as an internal teacher, you're not certified as a famous teacher, and you don't even have a notarized certificate. The 'famous teacher' institutions aren't stupid. There are plenty of registered teachers. Everyone wants to make money or satisfy their desire to be a teacher."
Zhou Ze looked at Babata and asked, "Babata, how much for this data?"
Babata explained one by one: "It's divided into traffic and recommendation slots. Of course, if you're not an internal teacher, not a certified expert, and haven't even had it certified, you can't buy a recommendation slot no matter how much money you spend. There are even restrictions on buying traffic."
Zhou Ze nodded, indicating his understanding.
After all, there are countless newly registered teachers like him. If paying money could buy exceptionally good traffic and recommendations, it would easily cause dissatisfaction among students.
"Your situation is quite common. At most, you can spend 10,000 Black Dragon Coins to buy exposure, which means 10,000 students can see you."
"That's really expensive, 10,000 Black Dragon Coins for 10,000 people!" Zhou Ze chuckled.
Babata explained, "Once students contact you and give you positive reviews, you can buy more traffic, and the amount varies depending on the student's rating."
Zhou Ze couldn't help but chuckle: "It's like a live stream with different levels for viewers, and the trainees are just the audience..."
"Indeed! However, the rating system is more complex. Different strengths, levels of cultivation, and amounts of spending all affect the student's rating."
Zhou Ze chuckled to himself, "I think I can pull off some crazy moves to quickly boost teacher ratings."
Babata shook his head and said, "It's not that simple. There's a virtual universe network monitoring system. Once discovered, the 'Master Teacher' qualification will be permanently revoked, and it might even affect your credit!"
Zhou Ze looked surprised: "Even in space, you can't avoid credit scores."
Babata said seriously, "Even the most evil and despicable villains care a lot about their virtual universe credit score. The virtual universe network is not like your Earth."
"If your credit score drops, that would be absolutely terrible!"
"It's like being reduced from a citizen of outer space to an indigenous person!"
Zhou Ze was both amused and exasperated. He had no idea about such details, and they were not shown in the novel or anime at all.
"Okay, Babata, buy me some data, buy the maximum amount!" Zhou Ze said nonchalantly.
He currently has 100 million Black Dragon Coins, so he doesn't care about 10,000 Black Dragon Coins at all. Besides, Luo Feng will soon become a first-level spiritual master of the Eternal Star level!
At that time, his money will all be calculated in Qianwu currency.
"Okay, I've purchased 10,000 Black Dragon Coins worth of data for you!" Babata prompted with a smile.
A prompt also appears directly in the middle of the "Famous Teacher" webpage screen.
"Zhou Ze, Clark accepted your friend request and sent you a message..."
Babata suddenly said.
"Oh?" Zhou Ze opened his virtual universe email and found that Clark was asking him if he had registered for "Master Teacher".
"Zhou Ze, that Clark is no ordinary person. It would be good for you to befriend him. Besides, he seems to be a kind and righteous person with no ulterior motives. He's just started his training..." Babata said.
"Well, let nature take its course," Zhou Ze said casually, then asked Babata, "Babata, you seem to know his identity, right?"
"Hmm, I had some guesses, anyway, it couldn't be low..." Babata thought for a moment and said, "I didn't tell you before because I was worried that you and Luo Feng's mentality was unstable. Even if you didn't deliberately try to please him, you would still be somewhat restrained, which would make him look down on you."
"His presence, and the fact that he's traveling in such a low-key, hidden way, suggests he wants to experience the world of ordinary people..."
Zhou Ze said speechlessly, "Having a domain lord as a bodyguard, you can't exactly keep that low-key!"
Babata said with dissatisfaction, "You're still underestimating him. His status is probably higher than you think."
