Yu Zi, I've Decided Not to Rent a Place!

In the school's grove, just after Zhang Yu activated his Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi, waves of Spiritual Energy immediately washed over his entire body.

Especially after the Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi trained every piece of flesh, internal organs, and bones in his body.

The True Spirit Root seemed to be adapting to this situation, continuously channeling its Spiritual Energy into the various parts of Zhang Yu's body that he was training, working in conjunction with the Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi to accelerate the robust growth of Zhang Yu's physical body.

In ancient times, Immortal Cultivation was something only those with Spirit Root could do.

Only now, when he truly began cultivating with his Spirit Root, did Zhang Yu deeply realize the difference between the two. He felt the extra boost to his physical growth that came from the surging Spiritual Energy flowing into his flesh and blood in conjunction with Body Tempering.

Besides that...

"Hmm?" Zhang Yu sensed the wisps of Spiritual Energy flowing into his spine and the area around it, as if tiny hands were stimulating and nourishing something.

"Is this... nerves? Is Spiritual Energy stimulating and nourishing my nerves?"

"But my Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi shouldn't have this kind of nerve-training effect, right?"

"Is this an inherent effect of True Spirit Root?"

Zhang Yu was naturally delighted to have additional Body Tempering effects during the cultivation of Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi.

Even when Zhang Yu wasn't cultivating the Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi, this Spirit Root was still constantly infusing his physical body with Spiritual Energy.

Perhaps because the usage time was long enough, when Zhang Yu returned the Spirit Root to Bai Zhenzhen after school, he could feel that his physical body would continue to grow rapidly for a period of time, just like when he used the Muscle Growth Spiritual Root.

After Bai Zhenzhen retracted her Spirit Root, she immediately felt a distinct discomfort, as if there was something oddly shaped stuck in her stomach.

At the same time, Bai Zhenzhen felt her muscles, internal organs, and bones being infused with Spiritual Energy, nourishing her flesh and blood at a special frequency, making her muscles, internal organs, and bones gradually stronger.

"Spiritual Energy struck a spot in me that I don't usually exercise..."

"This is not my method of Body Tempering at all; it's more like the effect of Yu Zi's Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi."

"As expected, the True Spirit Root adapted to Zhang Yu's physical body and underwent changes..."

Bai Zhenzhen tried to circulate her Body Refining Cultivation Method, Thunderclap True Body.

In order to cultivate Immortal Dao, Bai Zhenzhen spent almost all of her money on Cultivation Method, except for paying off loans, medicine, and food.

This Thunderclap True Body was Body Refining Cultivation Method she acquired at a cost of 120,000, which allows her to condense her magical power to temper her body with lightning.

It is a Body Tempering method that, while enhancing Physical Strength, focuses on increasing the cultivator's neural reaction, movement speed, and explosive power.

At this moment, when Bai Zhenzhen activated the Thunderclap True Body again, she felt that her True Spirit Root also drew upon Spiritual Energy to infuse the cultivation of the Thunderclap True Body.

"How could this be?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Bai Zhenzhen's eyes. "While the True Spirit Root adapted to Zhang Yu's physical body, it also adapted to my physical body. It's as if the Spiritual Energy energy infusion phenomenon that Zhang Yu experienced when cultivating the Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi... has been superimposed onto my body?"

At this moment, Bai Zhenzhen felt that after her Body Tempering, in addition to the Body Tempering of the Thunderclap True Body, her muscles, internal organs, and bones had received an extra boost.

"Conversely, if I lend my Spirit Root to Yu Zi, he can also benefit from some of the effects of my cultivation, right?"

"If we keep switching training methods like this every day, won't the cumulative effect of this adaptation increase and become stronger?"

"Wouldn't that mean one person would have the cultivation effect of two people?"

"Won't my scores and competition rankings improve by leaps and bounds?"

"Punch Song Hailong, stomp on Le Mulan, and together with Yu Zi, dominate Songyang!"

Bai Zhenzhen's heart immediately surged with excitement upon thinking of this.

"However, to make this easier, we would have to share an apartment and go to school or work together every day so that we could switch between our Spirit Root whenever we wanted."

With that thought in mind, Bai Zhenzhen made up her mind. "Okay, then I'll go look for a house tomorrow!"

The next day after school, Bai Zhenzhen started taking Zhang Yu to look for a house.

They started their search along a straight line from Songyang High School in the city Qidian to the Dark Learning Gang Park in the suburbs.

In a basement on the outskirts of the city, the real estate agent said, "This basement is in high demand. It has electricity, internet, and running water. The subway is just outside the sewers, and you don't have to worry about sunlight interfering with your cultivation. The only downside is the rent; it's 20,000 a month..."

Continuing towards the suburbs, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen spotted another decent garage.

The landlord said, "This is a great location. The rent is normally 5,000 a month, but since you're all students, I can waive the rent if you're really interested. However, you'll need to deposit a million yuan."

"Don't have that much money? You can borrow it. Or you're from Songyang High School, right? If you're willing, you can each mortgage an arm."

Continuing their search towards the outskirts of the city, they arrived at an apartment building.

The landlord, carrying a bunch of keys, said impatiently, "You rent these places just to store your things, not for cultivation. If you want to cultivate, go to the gym or the Training Field. The rent isn't going to go down; I still have to support my son's university education, do you even know that?"

Outside the construction site, which was filled with shipping containers, the ground was littered with cigarette butts and empty bottles.

Before even getting close, Zhang Yu could smell a strong odor of Dao Heart Buffer, clearly indicating that the residents here all consumed large amounts of Dao Heart Buffer.

Zhang Yu shook his head. "No, I've already given up the Dao Heart Buffer. If I stay here, I'm afraid I'll get addicted again."

The two walked along the elevated road, when Bai Zhenzhen suddenly said, "Yu Zi, a poor person shouldn't waste money."

"But from these past ten years of living like a poor man... I've learned one thing: the more you want to rent a satisfactory place, the more you get ripped off. And if you want to avoid being ripped off, there's only one way..."

Zhang Yu asked curiously, "What method?"

Bai Zhenzhen said firmly, "Yu Zi! I've decided not to rent a place!"

Zhang Yu Outer Dao, "If we don't rent a place, where will we live?"

Bai Zhenzhen pointed to the stream under the overpass and said, "Can't people live under that bridge?" Zhang Yu: "Huh?"

Bai Zhenzhen said, "It's fine if we don't choose this bridge arch; we can just stay wherever we like."

"I've thought it through carefully. Water... we can drink it at school and we can bring our own."

"Electricity... can be charged both in the Dark Learning Gang and at school."

"As for food... well, it's all just commercially Synthetic Food from the cafeteria anyway."

"We don't need to sleep, and we can just take a bath in the river next to this bridge arch."

"Large trucks pass by on these suburban overpasses every day, making a lot of noise. We don't worry about disturbing others with the noise we make while practicing."

"We'll practice and rest here, go to school during the day, and go to the Dark Learning Gang at night. What do you say?"

Bai Zhenzhen became more and more energetic as she spoke, "Instead of giving money to landlords and agents, we should buy more food and not give those rich people the opportunity to fleece us."

"We cultivators, who take the sky as our blanket and the earth as our mat, should live under bridges, in forests, and occupy Unfinished Building, investing all our limited funds into our cultivation! I've wanted to do this for a long time!"

Zhang Yu also considered the feasibility. "But what about the things? If we just leave them here, someone might take them, right?"

The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

Bai Zhenzhen said, "I carry important and frequently used items in my backpack."

"Things that aren't important or used often can either be sold or just put in a box in the classroom. Anyway, there are security cameras in the classroom, and the people at school aren't likely to steal anything."

To be honest, Zhang Yu felt there was some truth to what he heard.

He and Bai Zhenzhen were already high school students who didn't need to sleep, and they had nothing of value, so they could practice and rest wherever they went.

So a few days later, Bai Zhenzhen and Zhang Yu both vacated their rented apartments.

Every day after school, the two would bring Synthetic Food, fill a few bottles with water, find a random place to cultivate, and then tutor people in the park in the evening before going to school during the day.

And so the days passed by...

In the grove of trees in the Dark Learning Gang Club park.

Zhang Yu was cultivating the Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi when he saw a surge of Spiritual Energy energy rushing in. With each exertion of his muscles, it continuously strengthened his muscles, internal organs, and bones, while also nourishing his nervous system little by little.

At the same time, the potent medicinal power of the Primordial Pill continuously nourished Zhang Yu's body, making the circulation of his Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi smoother and smoother.

With the support of the True Spirit Root and the Primordial Pill, Zhang Yu felt that his Physical Strength had improved by leaps and bounds during this period.

Just then, Zhang Yu heard his phone alarm ring. He thought to himself, "Is it time for class?"

In order to make the best use of their True Spirit Root, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen tried their best to have the Dark Learning Gang stagger their class times so that while one of them was in class, the other could use their Spirit Root to cultivate.

Inside the Dark Learning Gang's classroom, Bai Zhenzhen couldn't wait to come out as soon as class ended.

The Car Woman in the hallway greeted her, saying, "Teacher Le, going to see Teacher Ma again? You two go to and from work together every day, haven't you considered buying a car?"

Le Mulan is Bai Zhenzhen's alias in the Dark Tutoring World.

Bai Zhenzhen waved her hand and said, "Why buy a car? Riding this is fast and saves money. I don't want to be exploited by the company!"

Bai Zhenzhen found the grove of trees, saw Zhang Yu, and rushed over, thinking to herself with joy, "My precious Spirit Root, here I come!"

She ran up to Zhang Yu's back and gently touched him. She felt a warmth in her stomach, and the True Spirit Root had been transferred into her body. Bai Zhenzhen immediately felt a wave of comfort throughout her body.

Zhang Yu rubbed his slightly empty stomach, waved to Bai Zhenzhen who was already exercising, and said, "I'm going to class now. You should hurry up and practice."

Under the bridge.

As soon as Bai Zhenzhen got out of Zhang Yu's car, she couldn't wait to jump into the river next to her to take a bath.

Zhang Yu took off his clothes and started packing them up; he was going to send them to Lian Tianji tomorrow.

Although his tutoring income is not low now, he has many other expenses, so he still needs to make the most of the income from selling clothes at Lian Tianji's place.

the next day.

Le Mulan opened the safe, looked at the clothes inside, sniffed them lightly, and frowned slightly. "It seems like there's always someone else's scent on these clothes lately."

In the cafeteria.

Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen each hugged a large bucket and began to devour the porridge inside. With their Physical Strength increasing rapidly, their food expenses had also risen sharply recently.

Zhao Tianxing to the side, looked at the two with some envy. "Zhang Yu and A-Zhen go to and from school together every day now, and they say they cultivate together after school too. They even take turns using the rented Spirit Root. They have such a good relationship. I wish I had a beautiful female friend with such a good relationship."

Although he had undergone sterilization, students like Zhao Tianxing still had a love for beauty.

Qian Shen looked at the two with envy. "I really envy Bai Zhenzhen. She gets to cultivate with Zhang Yu, who ranked first in the Martial Competition and fourth in the Magic Competition, every day. I wish I had such an excellent study partner."

As for the latest top student, He Dayou, Qian Shen doesn't even look at his expensively bought muscles.

Although he looked down on him, Qian Shen had to admit that He Dayou's Physical Strength was now superior to that of all the first-year students at Songyang High School.

"Even Zhang Yu would probably only have a chance to catch up in his second year of high school, right?"

Time flies, and a month has passed since the Martial Arts Competition. The day has come when Songyang High School's Competition Team and Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen agreed to decide the competition spots.

After school that day, Wang Hai and several other physical education teachers, along with Lan Ling and several students from the Student Union's sports department, would all gather at the stadium to witness the difference between He Dayou and his He Dayou five, and Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen.
