Zhang Yu's Ideal Cultivation Conditions

Seeing the medical insurance premiums all drop to zero, Dai Xingzhi thought to himself, "Is this a lose-lose situation?"

The rules immediately flashed through Dai Xingzhi's mind. "If one party's medical insurance limit reaches zero, they lose; but if both parties' limits reach zero, the battle continues..."

But the next moment, after exhausting all his Medical Insurance Quota, he felt incredibly weak and swayed slightly before collapsing to his knees.

On the other hand, Bai Zhenzhen wiped her mouth, then slowly stood up, her body crackling with electricity, and walked step by step toward Dai Xingzhi.

Dai Xingzhi's heart sank. "After spending 1 million yuan on treatment, she recovered better than me?"

"So this means she was less injured than me? How is that possible? She clearly took my full-force attack too."

A confident smile appeared on Bai Zhenzhen's lips, her eyes flashing with electricity as she looked at Dai Xingzhi, thinking to herself, "This kind of rich Immortal Capital Master from Xiandu really... doesn't know how to work himself to the bone."

The next moment, Bai Zhenzhen activated her Electro-optic Step, and her whole body shot towards Dai Xingzhi like a flash of lightning.

Although Bai Zhenzhen was still quite injured and had not been fully healed, Dai Xingzhi was even weaker and more powerless.

In just a few moves, Dai Xingzhi was knocked off the stage by Bai Zhenzhen, losing the match completely.

Watching this scene, Huang Zichou thought to himself, "Bai Zhenzhen is really daring and hardworking. Although she probably has someone backing her now, she must have originally crawled up from the very bottom of the poor."

"After all, these poor people only have a chance to catch up with the rich by risking their lives ten or twenty times and surviving. This kind of fearlessness and ferocity born of poverty cannot be faked."

Below the arena, Dai Xingzhi repeatedly recalled every detail of the battle, and finally thought with some resentment, "Was it because I didn't go all out in that moment?"

But risking everything, going all out, and making a desperate gamble... these things go against the teachings Dai Xingzhi received from childhood and are behaviors he has always disdained.

"I actually lost here?"

"Could it be that there's a flaw in our Lineage Family Rules passed down through generations...?"

Dai Xingzhi shook his head. "No, it's because I wasn't careful enough in this battle. I shouldn't have put myself in such a desperate situation."

Looking at Bai Zhenzhen on the stage, Dai Xingzhi thought to himself, "Out-of-town woman, if we have another chance to fight, I will definitely defeat you."

As soon as the battle ended, Bai Zhenzhen collapsed to the ground as soon as she stepped off the stage.

Feeling the injuries within her body, she thought to herself, "I'm definitely out of the running for the next match against Yun Jing, right?"

"But it doesn't matter anymore. At least we've secured the top two spots this time, and we can participate in the final round of the Foundation Establishment Exam to compete for the Foundation Establishment Certificate."

"So, does that mean we can just admit defeat to Yun Jing directly?"

"I wonder how Yu Zi is doing..."

Just as Bai Zhenzhen defeated Dai Xingzhi, on the other side of Zhang Yu's examination room, the simulated depth of the Sea Stabilizing Pillars had reached -300 meters.

The Profound Abyss Heavy Water within the Sea Stabilizing Pillars had become incredibly heavy at this moment, making Yu Xinghan feel as if he were bound by one iron chain after another, making each breath heavy and difficult.

Especially vulnerable parts of the body are made particularly susceptible to injury under the intense water pressure.

For example, Yu Xinghan could feel his ears starting to hurt, as if needles were pricking his ears.

In addition, the area between the eyebrows, the throat, and the chest cavity were all being constantly squeezed by the Profound Abyss Heavy Water.

Yu Xinghan knew this was because the internal cavity and the external Profound Abyss Heavy Water had failed to achieve pressure balance.

"It's like diving..."

Yu Xinghan took a deep breath of air from the oxygen mask, then pumped his chest muscles, diaphragm, and throat muscles... pushing the inhaled air into the cavity inside his body. After rounds of pressurization, he achieved a balance between the air pressure inside the cavity and the pressure of the Profound Abyss Heavy Water outside.

"This process must be done with extreme care. If the internal gas pressure is too high, it can easily cause the air to explode and damage vulnerable parts of the body. If the pressure is insufficient, it will lead to an imbalance between the inside and outside, eventually causing the eardrums to rupture due to the Profound Abyss Heavy Water..."

As Yu Xinghan withstood the pressure of the Profound Abyss Heavy Water, he also strained his muscles to adjust the pressure difference between the inside and outside, and felt the difficulty of this environment more and more.

"It's not just about having a high enough Physical Strength and resilience; it's also about constantly controlling your physical power to actively resist the Profound Abyss Heavy Water."

Yu Xinghan glanced at the contestants around him. Meng Tao and another contestant were just like him, silently resisting the Profound Abyss Heavy Water and adjusting their breathing.

But Zhang Yu and Ye Lingxiao stood out from the crowd.

Especially Ye Lingxiao, under everyone's astonished gaze, actually tore off his oxygen mask with a look of disgust, casually opened his eyes, and stood calmly at the bottom of the Sea Stabilizing Pillars.

Yu Xinghan was shocked. "The effects of his Intelligence-Lowering Capsule haven't worn off yet? He's about to be eliminated?"

Zhang Yu was secretly delighted. "Haha, did he really make a mistake because his IQ dropped?"

But everyone soon realized they were wrong. Ye Lingxiao stood motionless like a statue, completely unaffected despite not having an oxygen mask, as if he were surrounded by air instead of Profound Abyss Heavy Water.

Ye Lingxiao tilted his head, thinking to himself, "What's next? Just stand here... is standing here enough? That should be it, the exam probably hasn't officially started yet."

Ye Lingxiao couldn't help but frown. "It's not this exam... what exactly is this exam going to test? We can't just stand here like this."

Seeing Ye Lingxiao as if nothing had happened, Yu Xinghan was startled and couldn't help but analyze, "Did this guy use some kind of Cultivation Method that allows him to control his internal breathing?"

"No, he doesn't seem to be breathing at all, nor is he adjusting the pressure difference between his inside and outside? Is he using pure Physical Strength to fight against the Profound Abyss Heavy Water?"

"So, does this guy have even honed the body's most vulnerable parts, like the eardrum, to the point where he can forcibly resist the Profound Abyss Heavy Water?" Thinking this, Yu Xinghan gasped inwardly, then involuntarily felt fortunate that he wouldn't encounter such a terrifying opponent in next year's Foundation Establishment Exam.

Then he looked at Zhang Yu on the other side, who was standing in the Sea Stabilizing Pillars, twisting his body and practicing Body Tempering tempering.

Yu Xinghan thought to himself, "Sigh, I'm actually the one with the weakest Physical Strength among the five."

Meanwhile, Zhang Yu, through repeated physical training and the nourishment of the Longevity Magical Power, felt his Physical Strength gradually increasing.

In particular, the Imitation Phoenix Function Element taken during the first half of the exam is still effective.

The medicinal power surged through his body like flames, stimulating the growth of his muscles and bones, providing Phoenix Hormones to repair physical damage, and working together with the Longevity Magical Power to heal his body.

To Zhang Yu's surprise, the Profound Abyss Heavy Water also enhanced his Body Tempering effects.

The water pressure coming from all directions made him feel as if he were wearing layers of Weighted Suit, causing even more severe wear and tear on his body while practicing the Boundless Spring Autumn Zen.

"On the one hand, it intensifies the wear and tear on the body, and on the other hand, it enhances the body's repair capabilities. This back and forth makes the Body Tempering effect of the Boundless Spring Autumn Zen even stronger."

If the combination of the Level 10 Spring and Qi Refining Period Boundless Spring Autumn Zen, the top-tier Body Tempering medicine Imitation Phoenix Function Element for the Profound Abyss Heavy Water can be considered a top-tier Body Tempering condition, then what Zhang Yu is experiencing now is top-tier ×3!

The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

Because he possesses the High School Sacred Body, he can double the effect of Body Tempering when practicing any Qi Refining Period Cultivation Method, achieving a three-fold increase in effect!

At this moment, Zhang Yu felt his body erupt like a volcano during cultivation, accompanied by the surrounding Profound Abyss Heavy Water surging back and forth, achieving an unprecedented level of efficiency.

"Happy!"

"This is simply the best cultivation environment, the Forced Cultivation conditions, and the highest cultivation efficiency I've encountered since I came to Kunxu!"

Physical Strength: 9.92!

As time passed, the simulation of the Profound Abyss Heavy Water deepened, and the pressure and wear and tear on Zhang Yu's physical body during the training became more and more severe, but the efficiency of the training increased!

When the depth reached -500 meters, Zhang Yu's Physical Strength also increased to level 9.93.

With each exertion of energy and each twist, he felt his body become even heavier, and the training effect increased again with the pressure from the Profound Abyss Heavy Water.

Especially as cultivation becomes increasingly difficult, the Remnant Ox Abandoning Self Heart Sutra" gradually takes effect, continuously stimulating potential.

While Zhang Yu was training like crazy, Ye Lingxiao on the other side remained motionless and breathless, standing quietly at the base of the Sea Stabilizing Pillars with his arms crossed.

He stared at the number -500 meters above his head and wondered to himself, "What does this mean?"

"Etc..."

"I remember now," he thought to himself, "the Sea Stabilizing Pillars and the Profound Abyss Heavy Water..."

"I'm already tired of this kind of thing."

As his thoughts gradually returned, he twitched his ears slightly, pressing them tightly against his head to completely cover his ear canals, thus resisting the pressure of the Profound Abyss Heavy Water.

He already possessed skills like these with ease.

This was an unprecedented experience and unprecedented cultivation condition for Zhang Yu, but for Ye Lingxiao it was already commonplace.

Especially with Ye Lingxiao's already formidable Physical Strength, which had reached the limit of the Qi Refining Period, coupled with one Body Protection Technique after another, a depth of -500 meters was as easy for him as ordinary underwater swimming.

As the side effects of the Dao Dissolution Sustained Release Capsule gradually subsided and his thinking returned to normal, he felt much more relaxed.

But recalling his actions after taking the drug, Ye Lingxiao gradually frowned, a gloomy look flashing across his face. "This drug actually lowered my IQ?"

But gradually, his brows relaxed again. "No, it doesn't seem to be a decrease in IQ. Rather than a decrease in IQ, it's more like the development of a parallel way of thinking. The side effects of this drug might not be a bad thing."

Just as Ye Lingxiao was pondering, Yu Xinghan on the other side was about to collapse. Not only was the pressure from the Profound Abyss Heavy Water making his bones and muscles creak, but the balance of pressure inside and outside his body was also gradually slipping out of his control.

"Damn it, if I hadn't worked overtime yesterday, I could have held on a little longer today."

Finally, when the depth reached -511 meters, Yu Xinghan had no choice but to give up.

At that moment, Yu Xinghan made a decision. "I need to be more disciplined. I've been working too much overtime lately, and it's starting to affect my studies and cultivation."

Time continued to pass, second by second.

When the depth reached -900 meters, Zhang Yu's Physical Strength had increased to a level of 9.94, which was the fastest improvement in his Body Tempering ever.

However, at -900 meters, even Zhang Yu at this moment would find it difficult to continue cultivating.

In particular, as the effects of the medicine in his body gradually dissipated, it became difficult for the Phoenix Hormones to continue accelerating his body's growth and repair.

On the contrary, the pressure of the Profound Abyss Heavy Water became increasingly terrifying, requiring Zhang Yu to use more physical strength to resist the water pressure and adjust the pressure difference between the inside and outside.

Zhang Yu turned to look at the other contestants and saw that Meng Tao had curled up, his muscles squeezed down to almost half their original size under the terrifying pressure.

But Ye Lingxiao on the other side remained standing motionless with his arms crossed, clearly indicating that the current depth was far from his limit.

The simulated depth continued to decrease little by little, finally reaching the level of -1300 meters.

Zhang Yu felt as if the Profound Abyss Heavy Water around him had turned into heavy steel plates, tightly covering his body and pressing down on his muscles and bones, as if trying to completely flatten his body.

Zhang Yu tried his best to use all his muscles to resist the overwhelming pressure, but gradually found that his physical strength was no longer functioning perfectly.
