Upon hearing Yu Xinghan's question, Zhang Yu's face darkened, and he said speechlessly, "Too lazy to order."

Yu Xinghan advised, "Why don't you click on it? There are Talismans Coupon in the ads inside, you can use them yourself."

Zhang Yu Outer Dao, "Talismans Coupon?"

Yu Xinghan nodded and said, "You know how much Talisman Arts cost. You watch a few ads every day to collect Talisman Arts coupons; that's a form of Talisman Arts cultivation that can make your Talisman Arts skills stronger."

Zhang Yu sat down next to the other person and finally couldn't help but ask, "You're a disciple of Spark True Person, right? You're short of money?"

Yu Xinghan shook his head, speaking slowly with the air of someone who had been through it all, "Kunxu has no shortage of rich people, but it lacks money the most."

"Money is a reflection of one's character, potential, and future. No one in this world is without money."

Even a strong person like me needs to learn to save money.

"Every dollar I save is contributing to my overall development and potential."

"To go far on the path of Immortal Dao, one must not only learn how to make money and how to spend it, but also how to save money."

Yu Xinghan turned to Zhang Yu and said, "Otherwise, what if you suddenly discover a crucial Cultivation Method, Spirit Root, or Dharma Skeleton, and you scrape together the money but can't afford it...?"

"Money is potential, and what happens when you find that your potential is exhausted and you can no longer take the next step?"

"You'll regret not saving more money back then."

"Every little bit of money we save now can help us take a few more steps into the future."

Zhang Yu nodded slightly upon hearing this, finding the other person's words to be quite reasonable. He then picked up his phone and clicked on the link the other person had sent.

After resting for a few minutes, the two resumed their fierce battle.

Two hours passed in the blink of an eye.

But everyone felt they had gained a lot.

Song Hailong felt that his Martial Dao experience had improved.

Through Zhang Yu's performance, Yu Xinghan learned many techniques for channeling internal energy and improved his physical control.

In addition to her Martial Dao combat experience, Bai Zhenzhen will also receive 20,000 yuan in tuition fees.

In addition to receiving 22,000 yuan in tuition fees, Zhang Yu also had the opportunity to learn the Dragon Elephant Mountain Shattering Palm and incur a bill of 200,000 yuan.

However, just a moment later, when Yu Xinghan transferred the money, Zhang Yu was slightly taken aback when he saw the 30,000 yuan he received.

Yu Xinghan smiled and said, "Sorry, I accidentally added too much."

"Could you please transfer the money to my other account?"

Although he sensed something was off, Zhang Yu still transferred 8,000 yuan to the other party's other account.

Time passed slowly as Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen went to school, practiced, took extra classes, and sparred with each other every day.

It's late April now.

On the rooftop that afternoon.

Then a dark shadow appeared in it.

Despite being exposed to the glaring sunlight, no matter how much the sun shone, it could not dispel the deep shadows.

It was Zhang Yu who was cultivating the Great Sun Qi Sea.

With a roar emanating from the Great Sun Magical Power within his body, Zhang Yu finally pushed this Breathing Technique, which could only be practiced in the Mid-Stage Qi Refining, to Level 10.

Under the operation of the Level 10 Great Sun Qi Sea, the shadow that Zhang Yu had transformed into became even deeper, as if it wanted to completely swallow up all the brilliance around it.

As the intense light continued to flow into his body, the Great Sun Qi Sea within him surged even more violently. Streams of Great Sun Magical Power roared and surged like magma, absorbing all the absorbed light and gradually refining it into a stream of magic power in his dantian.

Zhang Yu knew that with the Great Sun Qi Sea being upgraded to Level 10, he had once again entered a period of rapid growth in his magical power.

In addition, Zhang Yu felt that his body became more lively and agile as it was exposed to the Sun.

It's as if every cell and every strand of flesh in the body is cheering and jumping for joy, accelerating its own growth.

Zhang Yu knew that this was precisely the effect of the Level 10 Great Sun Qi Sea, which, under the radiance of light, accelerated the body's metabolism and improved the cultivator's Body Tempering efficiency.

The downside is that the longer the metabolism is accelerated, the shorter the lifespan of the cultivator will be.

"Damn it... This Great Sun Qi Sea is clearly the most time-consuming, yet it also shortens the cultivator's lifespan."

Zhang Yu shook his head, cursing inwardly, but he had no intention of stopping.

In the Kunxu, a place riddled with pits, the flaws of the Great Sun Qi Sea were no longer a significant issue.

Besides, he can switch to other Breath Circulation Cultivation Method later. Even if he runs the Great Sun Qi Sea for a year or two, it will only shorten his lifespan by a few weeks.

Improving Body Tempering efficiency at this cost is within his acceptable range.

"By combining the Great Sun Qi Sea with the Remnant Ox Abandoning Self Heart Sutra, not only can one's magical power and Dao Heart steadily improve, but one can also enhance the efficiency of Body Tempering."

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Fu Ji is quite good at choosing Cultivation Method." As he raised the Great Sun Qi Sea to Level 10, Zhang Yu's mana also increased rapidly, reaching 46.8.

However, he is still far from achieving Zhang Yu's goal of 70 mana points for entering the first level of the advanced stage.

Just then, a series of whistling sounds came from the side.

Zhang Yu turned his head and saw that Bai Zhenzhen's body was surrounded by whistling Sword Qi, like invisible sharp swords slashing through the air.

Just a few days ago, Bai Zhenzhen also raised her Body Piercing Sword Qi to Level 10. Except for her fingertips, her entire body can use Sword Qi to break through the opponent's body and attack, just like wearing an invisible sword armor, integrating offense and defense.

Under Fu Ji's guidance, Zhang Yu had Bai Zhenzhen use her prize money to buy a Swordsmanship called the Formless Sword Art.

This is a special assassination sword technique that can conceal Sword Qi, killing intent, and even sound. It is the sword technique that Bai Zhenzhen is currently practicing in conjunction with her Body Piercing Sword Qi.

"This sword technique is quite suitable for A-Zhen who pursues Martial Dao."

Zhang Yu could sense that although Bai Zhenzhen didn't say it, she had become increasingly diligent in her cultivation these past few days. She practiced her magical power, Dao Heart, Physical Strength, and various Martial Arts in turn every day, and was improving almost every moment.

Although after that conversation with Zhang Pianpian, Bai Zhenzhen and Zhang Yu continued to joke around, make money together, and cultivate together, seemingly remaining the same as before.

The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

But Bai Zhenzhen was anxious inside.

"Reach the senior high school level within four months, with Dao Heart level of 6, a mana of over 70 units, and Physical Strength of 7.5 or higher... Only then will you have a chance to pass the Foundation Establishment Exam."

The pressure of the Foundation Establishment Exam kept mounting, like an invisible monster chasing after her.

She secretly made up her mind. "I want to become stronger!"

"Strong enough to pass the Foundation Establishment Exam."

"So strong... that I'll never again be unable to utter a single word when I see A-Yu helpless because of me!"

Intense pressure and extreme desire... constantly transformed into a powerful driving force within Bai Zhenzhen, propelling her to pursue greater power, better results... and to pass the Foundation Establishment Exam, entering the top ten alongside Zhang Yu.

It can be said that in Bai Zhenzhen's short life, she had never been so desperate to pass an exam.

Meanwhile, the Spirit Root within her body seemed to become increasingly active in response to her intense desires, constantly propelling her cultivation.

Meanwhile, after Zhang Yu finally pushed the Great Sun Qi Sea to Level 10, he bought the Electronic Manual of the Remnant Ox Abandoning Self Heart Sutra, which reduced his savings by another 30,000.

Fortunately, Zhang Yu has earned a lot of money from tutoring and sparring fees in the past few days, and unlike before... he doesn't need to buy Primordial Pill to cultivate the Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi, so his savings still have more than 260,000 yuan left.

Just as Zhang Yu was looking at the bank balance displayed on his hand, Fu Ji said, "260,000 seems like a lot, but once you've cultivated the Remnant Ox Abandoning Self Heart Sutra to Level 10, you'll need to focus all your efforts on cultivating the Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi to improve your Physical Strength."

"To cultivate the Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi, one needs to consume Primordial Pill worth 30,000 each. If one pill is consumed every three days on average, that's 300,000 per month."

"Besides, how can one pass the Foundation Establishment Exam with just the passive cultivation of two Level 10 Cultivation Method? This Dao Heart and Mana Power are not enough."

"You also need to spend money to rent Spirit Vein to enhance your magical power and borrow the Spirit Realm Space to temper your Dao Heart. These two items alone can easily cost tens or hundreds of thousands a month."

A Spirit Vein is a place with a high concentration of Spiritual Energy energy.

In ancient times, it would have been called Grotto-Heaven.

Now it is called the Spiritual Opportunity Ecosystem Protection Zone. Not only are the entrance fees expensive, but the accommodation costs are also quite high. However, the enhancement of magical power far exceeds that of the usual urban environment.

Fu Ji continued, "Also, you're taking the physical training track for the Foundation Establishment Exam, which requires exceptional Physical Strength. Besides the Primordial Pill, you'll definitely need other Body Tempering medicines..."

As Fu Ji recounted the various expenses, Zhang Yu gave a wry smile, knowing she was right; there were still many places where he would need to spend money.

Moreover, he's not the only one going to spend money; if Bai Zhenzhen wants to join in, she'll inevitably have to spend money with him too.

Looking at the silent Zhang Yu, Fu Ji thought to herself, "There will come a time when you can't resist and will take the initiative to hunt down the Evil God."

Zhang Yu thought to himself that no matter what methods Kunxu used to improve himself, it all came down to money.

"Once I master the Remnant Ox Abandoning Self Heart Sutra,' I'll need to invest even more money to improve my Dao Heart, Magic Power, and Physical Strength."

Suddenly, Zhang Yu remembered the Moments.

He thought to himself, "Now that I know so many wealthy people, maybe I can save some money by using their connections to rent Spirit Vein, Spirit Realm, or buy Primordial Pill..."

Just then, Bai Zhenzhen said, "Yu Zi, aren't you going to Purple Cloud today? Don't forget to bring my things too."

Today, Zhang Yu is going to Purple Cloud not only to be Le Mulan's sparring partner, but also to rent the house that Le Mulan mentioned.

Watching Zhang Yu's departing figure, Bai Zhenzhen reminded him, "Remember to collect Le Mulan's potion."

Zhang Yu rolled his eyes, determined not to do such a poor man's thing; he had no intention of collecting the sweat of rich people.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Bai Zhenzhen repeated, "Did you hear me? Although we've made some money, there will be even more expenses in the future, and our financial pressure is very high. Every little bit we can save is precious."

As they spoke, Bai Zhenzhen handed a large water bottle to the other person. "Here, take this. You'll need it to collect the medicine later."

Zhang Yu reluctantly accepted the large water bottle, a sense of humiliation flashing through his mind.

"Damn it... being poor... is really tough."
