In an instant, among the countless leading online media outlets, this trending topic shot up the ranks with lightning speed, swiftly climbing into the top ten.

"What the hell? Playing games can improve Spiritual Power Realm?"

"Who bought this trending topic? Is the operator just messing around?"

"Hey, person above, watch your language! We're not taking the blame for this!!"

"..."

Below the trending topic, messages flashed rapidly, clearly showing great confusion over this news that had come out of nowhere.

This caused even more clueless folks to flock even more quickly to Yin Yin's stream.

Right now, countless livestream viewers were anxious, and the officials at the streaming platform were even more so.

Although their servers were equipped with Mechanical Cores, after all these years and burdened with such heavy traffic, they were now actually experiencing lag.

They had truly never anticipated that this streamer, who was clearly backed by influential figures and had always relied on directives from above, would suddenly stir up such a massive commotion and excitement.

The operations director gestured decisively. "Temporarily close a portion of the server channels for other streamers. We must ensure Yin Yin's stream runs smoothly!"

Even without direct connections to Sky Listen, at this point, considering the benefits involved, absolutely no one would refuse.

The reason was simple: in just this short period, the gift leaderboard had once again seen some huge fluctuations!

Countless people, drawn by its fame, sent messages in the live comments, but these were completely ignored, swallowed up by the overwhelming flood of incoming bullet comments.

However, there are wealthy people everywhere, and soon, some figured it out.

Various VIP slots and similar features, like pinned and highlighted bullet comments, also began to appear before everyone's eyes.

['Dragon City Chen Bro' has activated the 'Mythic' tier subscription in Yin Yin's stream...]

['So Bored' has activated the 'Mythic' tier subscription in Yin Yin's stream...]

[...]

"Dragon City Chen Bro: Streamer, where can I buy this game? Could you tell us?"

Without a doubt, within the streaming platform's broadcast rooms, Mythic was the highest-tier paid subscription, costing three million a month.

Each bullet comment sent by such a subscriber glittered with golden light and was wreathed in Dragon Energy, representing the pinnacle of prestige and vanity.

As expected, the previously ignored questions now received responses via these prominent bullet comments:

"Wow, a tycoon spotted! This is the new game launched by Pingyun Group from Jianghai Forest Province, called Heart of Dreams. A gaming helmet costs 120,000,000."

Someone provided an answer.

And soon, more questions followed:

"So Bored: I checked the official site. It seems Pingyun's Heart of Dreams will only be released on New Year's Day. How did the streamer get it?"

"My Wind is Not Crazy: +1! Also, I want to ask, can you really improve your Spiritual Realm by playing this game?"

"..."

"Bosses, stop asking! The streamer can't see the bullet comments while she's in the game!"

As expected, in the stream, Yin Yin was still using the little robot she had named Gold, grinding monsters and leveling up in the beginner-level instance of the mechanical ruins within the wasteland city.

"Dragon City Chen Bro: I watched the streamer's recent recording. It definitely showed the fluctuations of a spiritual power advancement. Interesting. I've DMed the streamer my contact info. If there's a way, I'm willing to pay double the price to get a Heart of Dreams helmet ahead of time..."

Then, an utterly bewildering scene unfolded.

A series of Eyeball Rockets soared into the sky—the platform's most expensive gift, each priced at 100,000.

And with each one sent, a platform-wide announcement was made.

However, this user, clearly on a newly registered account, went on to send two hundred of them.

Instantly, they topped the annual top gifter leaderboard.

"So Bored: Chen Bro, you've played your hand well. I checked the official Heart of Dreams website; it seems they're only pre-selling 25 helmets starting midnight on New Year's Day. There's no insider channel, so it's first-come, first-served. But if the streamer has a way, count me in too."

Rockets soared continuously in the stream.

At this moment, all the regular viewers in ordinary streams finally understood that the previous top gifters were nothing compared to these tycoons who had arrived following the trending topic. They were in a completely different league.

The gift leaderboard, in just over an hour, had been completely dominated by these accounts that had seemingly parachuted in.

Their objective was simple: for the streamer to contact them after she exited the game. If she had connections, they'd like one to try.

That's right, just to try.

All the ordinary viewers in the stream were dumbfounded.

Damn it, they don't even know for sure how effective Heart of Dreams is, or how significant the improvement will be!

Of course, judging by the game's content, it looked fun and engaging to play.

But still, money isn't meant to be thrown around like that!

However, for many people, that was exactly how money worked.

Especially when it came to operations, Dong Muyun had a deep understanding of the psychology of a certain segment of the wealthy population.

The external design of the Heart of Dreams mechanical helmet was beyond reproach.

Each helmet, encased in Commander-Level metal, could be customized. Buyers could request Pingyun Company during the preorder to engrave an exclusive name or insignia on their mechanical helmet.
