High School Saintly Physique
During the Martial Dao class, Zhang Yu was focused on practicing the Basic Cultivation Method one by one.
By early September, he had raised both his Basic Heart Refining Method and Basic Breathing Technique to Level 10.
He also mastered the newly learned High School Basic Digestion Method and High School Basic Medication Method to Level 10.
However, these Basic Cultivation Method are indeed just Basic Cultivation Method. Even if one cultivates them to Level 10 and enhances the effects of some Cultivation Method, in Zhang Yu's view, they are barely passable.
If it weren't for Feather Scroll's Chain Law Diagram, he probably wouldn't have chosen to put so much effort into so many Basic Cultivation Method.
In particular, some of these Basic Cultivation Method have numerous moves, which are quite time-consuming for him.
"Sigh, for me, how quickly I can learn a Cultivation Method depends on how long it takes to practice it once. If it takes too long to learn Basic Cultivation Method, I will improve more slowly than with Expert-level Cultivation Method."
At this moment, Zhang Yu was practicing High School Basic Footwork.
Once this High School Basic Footwork is mastered to Level 10, the six Cultivation Method required for the High School Sacred Body will be complete, allowing the activation of the first level of enhancement.
Thinking about this, Zhang Yu felt even more excited. "What kind of effect will it have?"
Looking at Zhang Yu's ardent gaze and enthusiastic attitude, Lei Jun sighed inwardly. He could only do his best to teach him, hoping that the boy would master the remaining Basic Cultivation Method of Songyang High School as soon as possible and stop wasting time.
Meanwhile, in another corner of the Martial Dao class, Bai Zhenzhen said calmly, "All ten of you come at me together."
In an instant, her figure, crackling with electricity, moved among the ten high school students.
Although she was far stronger than any of them, facing the combined attack of ten people and feeling the attacks coming from all directions, she still felt an unprecedented pressure.
After all, when both are at the Qi Refining Realm, the difficulty of the battle increases exponentially with each additional opponent.
At this moment, Bai Zhenzhen had to face attacks from ten people from ten different angles every second.
But Bai Zhenzhen gritted her teeth and persevered.
"I'm going to fight the Strongest High School Student in Kunxu to claim the Martial Dao..."
"Since the quality of our class isn't good enough, we'll make up for it with quantity. I'll push my limits again and again to enhance my practical skills."
During after-school Dao Arts tutoring class.
On the surface, Zhang Yu was working on the exam papers in front of him, but the Remnant Ox Abandoning Self Heart Sutra" was running wildly in his mind.
Since his Spirit Realm cultivation experience, Zhang Yu has grasped the true meaning of the Remnant Ox Abandoning Self Heart Sutra." The more pressure he faces, the more he can unleash the wonders of this technique.
At this moment, although the layers of pressure brought by Zhou Chechen added many obstacles to Zhang Yu's path to Immortal Dao, these obstacles and pressures also further stimulated the effectiveness of the Remnant Ox Abandoning Self Heart Sutra in the face of pressure and desperate situations, making Zhang Yu more and more courageous in battle.
With the continuous blessing of the Mind-Body ...
Especially the four hours of tutoring time after school every day.
Faced with an endless stream of Talisman Arts tests that offered little real benefit even after completion, this was arguably the most stressful time of Zhang Yu's day, yet also the moment when his Remnant Ox Abandoning Self Heart Sutra" was most ignited.
Under such circumstances, not only did his mental cultivation become more vigorous, striving to enhance his Dao Heart, but his passively activated Great Sun Qi Sea also became increasingly turbulent.
Even the process of deduce the Dragon Elephant Mountain Shattering Palm using the True Spirit Root within the dantian became faster.
A sudden surge of emotion welled up in Zhang Yu's heart. "The cultivation of this ' Remnant Ox Abandoning Self Heart Sutra ' requires facing layers of oppression and ever-increasing pressure to make rapid progress."
"The greater the pressure, the more successful I become."
"I wonder under what circumstances that Desolate Ox Great Saint created this Cultivation Method."
"However, my current state is, by a stroke of fortuitous opportunity, in accordance with the essence of this Cultivation Method."
As for the True Spirit Root in his belly, it was at Fu Ji's suggestion that Bai Zhenzhen lend it to Zhang Yu during this time every day, so that he could make use of the time he spent doing his test papers.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yu casually scribbled a few answers on the test paper, then glanced at Teacher Zhou in front of him and saw that the other teacher was engrossed in scrolling through his phone.
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "For me... spending four hours just doing practice tests would be a waste of my life. But for the teacher who's helping me with the tests, it's also a boring and tedious waste of time for four hours."
"After all, the other party is just an ordinary worker. How could they possibly be monitoring me diligently for those four hours?"
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Besides, there's no point in me working on this lousy test paper. It seems these guys won't bother grading it anyway."
He felt that the tests he was doing were like winter or summer vacation homework on Earth, and the tutor in front of him couldn't be bothered to check them.
While Zhang Yu was secretly cultivating during his Dao Arts tutoring sessions, on the other side of the city...
Bai Zhenzhen moved through the traffic like a bolt of lightning, her movements accompanied by streaks of electricity.
The next moment, she lightly leaped and shot towards the main entrance of a building. Then, as layers of electric lights lit up in the corridor, she arrived at the 20th floor.
"Hello, your takeout has arrived..."
Enjoy your meal.
Seeing that another takeout order had been completed, Bai Zhenzhen, dressed in a delivery uniform, smiled slightly. With a series of afterimages, she shot off with Electro-optic Step.
Because she was constantly being watched, Bai Zhenzhen had no way to Dark Learning Gang tutor and earn money.
However, she and Zhang Yu had already exhausted their loan limit, and the monthly expenses for loan repayments, medicine, food, etc., were a considerable burden.
Fortunately, in addition to the income from sparring with Yu Xinghan, Song Hailong, Le Mulan, Zhang Yu also earns money from selling seeds at Red Pagoda every week, which helps supplement the family income.
But even so...
"Sigh, Yu Zi's seed quality is too low, and the income from selling seeds every week is getting lower and lower. I can only rely on delivering food to support him for a while."
"Fortunately, I can also train using my Thunder Magical Power while delivering food, so it's not a complete waste of time."
Just then, her phone rang, and Bai Zhenzhen's heart skipped a beat when she saw the notification: "Oh no, we're about to time out."
The next moment, she accelerated again, merging into the traffic, racing against time like the other deliverymen.
While Bai Zhenzhen was delivering takeout, a slender figure shrouded in darkness was silently watching Bai Zhenzhen from a short distance away.
She wore a pair of glasses on her head, and as her gaze moved, the camera on the glasses remained pointed at Bai Zhenzhen.
No matter how fast Bai Zhenzhen sped up or rushed to deliver the food, the woman kept a distance that Bai Zhenzhen couldn't escape, ensuring Bai Zhenzhen's continued pursuit. The woman watching Bai Zhenzhen was named Si Zhouyu, a member of the Zhou Family's Security Department, and a graduate of Jinzhou Junior College in business intelligence.
"Well..."
The thought that her recent job was to follow a food delivery driver and a high school student filled Si Zhouyu with a sense of helplessness.
"Sending negative reviews to rival companies, stealing contracts from rival companies, and destroying competitors' feng shui God of Wealth trees... these are the kinds of big things I should be doing."
"How can I get promoted and receive a raise if I'm always working with such a poor wretch?"
Si Zhouyu approached Bai Zhenzhen again, her body completely disappearing into the black shadows. She was almost ten meters away, brazenly yet silently taking pictures of Bai Zhenzhen.
"Can't you hurry up and do something bigger?"
Time passed by day by day, and the Monthly Exam in early September soon came to an end.
Before the results were officially announced, Zhou Chechen had already seen Zhang Yu's and Bai Zhenzhen's scores.
The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!
"Did Zhang Yu get second place? His score is still very high, but only relative to the students who came in second and below."
"In a longitudinal comparison, not only did he not continue to improve, but his magical power and Physical Strength both declined."
"On the contrary, Bai Zhenzhen is still making progress."
Looking at the report cards and the specific data on the two students' performance in the exams, Zhou Chechen thought to himself, "Zhang Yu's performance in the October monthly Monthly Exam will probably drop even further, and the gap between him and Bai Zhenzhen will widen even more."
"Given this continuous decline in skill level, Zhang Yu probably won't be able to hold on for more than a month or two, right?"
Just as Zhou Chechen was looking at the report card...
Inside an apartment near Ziyun High School.
Zhang Yu said, "This time, I used the Anti-Detection Ritual to conceal the progress in the data. Zhou Chechen will probably think that our recent methods have been very effective."
Bai Zhenzhen on the other side did not do that. After all, in the eyes of those around them, it was normal for Zhang Yu's grades to decline because he was obsessed with Basic Cultivation Method and had to take extra lessons on Talisman Arts every day. On the contrary, it was only natural that Bai Zhenzhen's grades would improve because she was performing better and better in Martial Dao and physical education classes.
Fu Ji said, "That's right, Zhou Chechen probably still wants to take advantage of the gap between you to put further pressure on Zhang Yu."
"Let them think they've succeeded."
"You should use this time to continue developing and becoming stronger."
"Don't rush to escalate the conflict with them; time is on your side."
Mid-September.
Inside the apartment.
Le Mulan sniffed, looked at Zhang Yu with some confusion, and suddenly asked, "Why... do you smell less bad?"
With her Super Metabolism, Le Mulan is extremely sensitive to all kinds of smells.
If Zhang Yu's sweat was sour and smelly before, the sweat on Le Mulan now smelled like her own sweat, with a pure quality.
Zhang Yu certainly wouldn't say that this was because of his successful cultivation.
It's not just about practicing Boundless Spring Autumn Zen every day to improve physical health and eliminate toxins.
Furthermore, after completing six Cultivation Method in High School Sacred Body, he gained an additional benefit.
Primary to High School Sacred Body (6/6): Drug Load, absorption, and metabolism capabilities are improved to the Qi Refining Peak.
Since gaining this boost, coupled with Zhang Yu's Level 10 Boundless Spring Autumn Zen, he felt that he could expel, collect, and control the toxins in his body, and the Zen Character on his chest was getting darker and darker.
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "The urine I urinate now might be drinkable by people."
After Le Mulan left, she sent a message to her brother Le Jingchen: Does Zhang Yu have a record of undergoing Super Metabolism Surgery?
Le Jingchen: No
Le Mulan: Is it possible for someone to have perfectly clean sweat without undergoing Super Metabolism Surgery?
Le Jingchen: I'll collect a sample of his sweat and have it tested in the lab to find out the results.
Le Mulan was slightly taken aback, and hesitated for a moment. "Collect Zhang Yu's sweat?"
Late September.
Red Pagoda High School.
Yu Xinghan cheeks were slightly sunken, looked at Zhang Yu, who was full of energy and enjoying a big meal, and exclaimed, "Your physical condition is quite good."
The feast before us was provided by Red Pagoda Company to the excellent seed provider, Yu Xinghan.
Although Zhang Yu was there to freeload, he ate more than Yu Xinghan.
Yu Xinghan couldn't help but ask, "You've attacked just as many times as I have, so how come you still have such good stamina?"
Having met Zhang Yu several times at Red Pagoda, Yu Xinghan now knows that Zhang Yu has the same part-time job at Red Pagoda as him.
Zhang Yu chuckled and said, "Eat more, get more nutrition!"
He glanced at his Feather Scroll and saw that the enhancements to the High School Sacred Body had been increased by one level from the initial level.
Advanced - High School Sacred Body (8/8): The ability to digest, absorb, and metabolize food has been enhanced to the Qi Refining Peak.
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Is this High School Sacred Body' just about being able to take medicine and eat superhumanly?"
"That does suit the characteristics of Kunxu High School students."
"I wonder what the last one will be like?"
As time passed, it was already mid-October.
The Second Round Foundation Establishment Exam is about to begin.
