Farewell to Zhang Pianpian, Registration Begins

Listening to Zhang Pianpian's various instructions from the other end of the phone.

Zhang Yu nodded occasionally and made an "Mmm" sound.

"The Ten Great Sects have established an ironclad rule: in order to maintain security and the business environment at each level, there is no free movement between different levels of Kunxu."

"If you want to come back, you either have to suffer a major loss of cultivation and assets, like Spark True Person, and then slink away in disgrace after many twists and turns."

"Or they have a specially assigned task or job, like Director Songyang of Xianyun Corporation, who was sent to this floor to sit on the sidelines."

"But both of these are merely the result of being eliminated while climbing upwards... I won't choose either."

"Little brother, I want to climb higher, to climb to a higher place in Kunxu, and see a better view from above."

"So my gaze will only be fixed upwards, I won't look back."

"If we meet again in the future, it will only be up there, and definitely not on the Kunxu First Layer."

Zhang Yu clenched his fist and said to Zhang Pianpian on the other end of the phone, "Sister, I will definitely catch up with you!"

Zhang Pianpian laughed and said, "Then I'll wait for you at Ten Thousand Laws University."

Zhang Yu then asked, "Since things are so difficult going up and down, do you have anything you don't need that you can leave me?"

Zhang Pianpian said, "I still have over 20 million yuan in debt..."

"Forget about this," Zhang Yu said righteously. "It's better for you to keep such a personal item on your person."

"I mean, is there anything you can't bring along? Like a house, a car, or anything valuable?"

Pfft! Bai Zhenzhen couldn't help but laugh out loud, feeling like she was listening to her grandson asking his ascending grandmother for her inheritance.

Zhang Pianpian said, "I left you three talismans."

Zhang Yu looked at the three pictures sent by the other party. Each picture was a screenshot of a Talisman Arts, but because the content was too complicated, he couldn't quite understand what kind of Talisman Arts it was.

Furthermore, a question arose in his mind, "Screenshots can be used too?"

Zhang Pianpian said, "These three talismans include a Freezing Talisman, which can freeze other people's bank accounts, but the higher the other person's Faith Level, the shorter the freezing time."

"There's also a Thunder Talisman, which can sound an alarm and summon armed Patrol Team forces for law enforcement within one minute. But remember, each alarm requires a minimum charge of 10,000, so make sure you have enough money in your account before using it."

"There's also a ' Swift Travel Talisman,' which can summon a minor Minor Earth God to ride for you, allowing you to instantly travel far away, up to a maximum distance of 10 kilometers. But remember, the fee is 3,000 yuan per kilometer, deducted directly from your account. You need to calculate the cost before using it."

Zhang Yu's eyes lit up as he listened, sensing that the three talismans were truly effective.

Zhang Pianpian said calmly, "I'll also send you the phone number of the captain of the Songyang City Patrol Team Captain. I have the Talisman Arts stored with her."

"After you add her as a friend, when you need to use any of these three talismans, just send her which one you want, and she will activate the Talisman Arts for you."

"Also, if you encounter a problem you can't solve yourself, you can go to her."

At this point, Zhang Pianpian paused, seemingly considering something, before finally saying, "If you need a higher-level God Department identity as a cover, she can help promote you. You can discuss the specifics with her."

"But if she promotes you, remember the highest you can get is a special assistant."

"Also, remember, never go to see her alone at night."

"Also, if you want to continue working Outsourced Workers, never sign a formal contract."

"Don't worry about the loan; just pay it off slowly according to the contract."

"Use the money to improve yourself. It's okay to be in debt; often, the amount of debt you have is also a reflection of your strength."

"Regarding the Foundation Establishment Exam registration, you'll have to open the registration website once you arrive in Immortal Capital City. I haven't participated before, so you'll have to be flexible with the situation..."

And so, Zhang Pianpian patiently explained various things to Zhang Yu one by one, and Zhang Yu listened very attentively.

Only at the very end did she slowly say, "We have no foundation on the Kunxu First Layer. Remember, never use my name Fourth Office my name to cause trouble."

"After I leave, you should be as patient as possible. If you pass the Foundation Establishment Certificate exam, you must be even more discreet."

Zhang Yu felt a bead of sweat trickle down his forehead. His Elder Sister was really something else; did he, Zhang Yu, look like someone who bullied others and caused trouble Fourth Office?

"Don't worry, sis. Just wait for me at Ten Thousand Laws University. I'll come find you in two years."

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yu suddenly felt a sense of emptiness, as if an elder who had always protected him was about to ascend to heaven, and he would have to face the world alone in the future.

"Sigh, I should probably prepare for the Foundation Establishment Exam registration first."

Zhang Yu picked up the phone and dialed his homeroom teacher, Su Haifeng, directly. "Hey, Mr. Su, Bai Zhenzhen and I need to ask for two days off."

"This is something that Senior Zhang Pianpian wanted me and Bai Zhenzhen to do for her before she left."

"Can't I even take this leave?"

"Then I can only tell her that Senior Zhang Pianpian will have to go to the Ascension Platform with regret."

"Okay, thanks, Lao Su."

Time flew by, and it was the day before the Foundation Establishment Exam registration.

Today is also the day Zhang Pianpian steps onto the Ascension Platform and officially departs.

night.

Songyang City, Intercity Railway Station.

Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen sat together in the waiting room, waiting for the high-speed train to Tiantai City.

The reason they booked the train to Tiantai City instead of the direct train to Immortal Capital was simply because they didn't want to reveal their destination.

Meanwhile, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen continued to practice their Breath Circulation. In the past few days, Zhang Yu's various stats had improved again, with his mana increasing to 61.4 and his Physical Strength reaching level 6.08.

But he also had far less money left.

Especially during the Gaokao period, various controls in Songyang City became increasingly strict, and police officers could be seen on the streets near various high schools from time to time.

Not only did major high schools prohibit outsiders from entering, but the Dark Learning Gang also stopped its tutoring activities, causing Zhang Yu to lose a large amount of income.

Zhang Yu could only sigh that the college Gaokao was a matter of utmost importance, affecting not only Second Layer admissions but also the future of countless individuals and families, so much so that the entire Songyang City was on high alert.

His savings subsequently dropped to 50,000 within a few days.

"I still need to find a way to make money. After this enrollment... maybe I can expand my business in the Dark Tutoring World?"

Just over an hour later, Zhang Yu's phone vibrated slightly; he had received a message from Zhang Pianpian.

Zhang Pianpian: I'm going now.

Immediately afterward, the other person's avatar went gray, and Zhang Yu knew that apart from some special communication methods, he would no longer be able to contact his Elder Sister until he reached the Kunxu Second Layer.

The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu felt a pang of disappointment once again.

"We probably won't see each other again for another two years."

"Thank goodness we still have A-Zhen."

He turned to look at Bai Zhenzhen, who was eating a bucket of Synthetic Food, and said, "A-Zhen? Why did you eat mine too?"

Bai Zhenzhen said, "You were just staring at your phone in a daze, I thought you weren't going to eat."

Zhang Yu: "You son of a bitch..."

Soon after arriving at Tiantai City Station, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen boarded a train bound for another city.

More than ten hours passed in the blink of an eye.

The speeding train travels across the land.

Zhang Yu looked at A-Zhen beside him and saw her leaning against the car window. He exclaimed, "Yu Zi, look at that!"

In the distance, a dense, endless cityscape stretched from the sky to the ground.

That was the Immortal Capital City, the destination of Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen's trip.

Above the Immortal Capital City, white and golden auspicious clouds spread out like continents and islands, with numerous celestial palaces and Divine Hall visible above, and countless skyscrapers towering in the clouds, resembling a city in the sky.

Below this aerial city lies the land, perpetually shrouded in shadow, with its densely packed buildings and neon lights flashing incessantly in the darkness.

A young man sat not far from Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen, pointing to the city in the sky and asking, "Uncle, have you ever been to Upper City?"

The old man sitting next to the young man had a deeply lined face. Looking at the scene in Immortal Capital, he seemed unsurprised and calmly said, "Yes, I worked there when I was young. Back then, there were only a few floating islands in the Upper City. Later, it was built bigger and bigger, and the clouds got thicker and thicker. Now, the rich call it 'Kunxu One-and-a-Half Layer '."

"The area above is becoming more and more prosperous, but the Lower City below... is experiencing more and more cloudy days, until it becomes like this now, where it's nighttime every day."

The young man said, "There's never a daytime, isn't it uncomfortable to stay here?"

The old man scoffed, "As long as there's money to be made, what's the difference between day and night? Let me tell you, even begging in Immortal Capital is better than working in a factory in other cities."

As the train slowly came to a stop at the station in the Lower City, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen had just gotten off when they felt a chill in the air.

Looking up at the sky, all you can see is the rolling sea of clouds over the Upper City.

However, what appears to be white and golden auspicious clouds outside the city is actually a dark expanse when viewed from below, as if dark clouds are constantly surging back and forth.

"Is it because the lower layers of the clouds are blocked by the various buildings and roads of the Upper City?"

"This is really oppressive," Zhang Yu thought to himself. "If I stay here, it will be inconvenient to cultivate in my Great Sun Qi Sea."

Instead of wandering Fourth Office, the two stayed in the station, found a secluded corner, and opened the registration website as Zhang Pianpian had instructed.

The two had tried accessing the website before, but each time it was blank and contained no information.

Now, standing in the Immortal Capital City, the registration website finally has information, but it's just a countdown.

"Hasn't it started yet?"

The two of them strolled around the station for a while, looking at the boxed lunches that cost hundreds of yuan, the bottles of water that cost ten yuan, and the stockings that cost fifty million yuan, and they all sighed at the high prices.

Suddenly, Bai Zhenzhen pointed to the white stockings worth fifty million and said, "Yu Zi, that's actually External Spirit Root."

Zhang Yu: "Hmm."

Bai Zhenzhen: "If you wear this, it's equivalent to having Spirit Root."

Zhang Yu rolled his eyes and said, "If anyone's going to wear it, it'll be you, and then you'll give me the True Spirit Root."

Bai Zhenzhen said, "Okay, then remember to buy it for me next time."

Zhang Yu didn't think he could afford such an expensive External Spirit Root at all, and casually said, "When I have money in the future, I'll buy you seven, seven different colors, one for each day of the week..."

As the two strolled around, the countdown to registration finally ended.

The two followed the instructions. "Find a space where there are no security cameras, no outsiders, and only yourself, then click confirm."
