Zhang Yu knew that ever since Fu Ji regained some of her Evil God Power and returned to the Level 1 Low-level Evil God, she had become extremely sensitive to changes in network signals.

After all, the essence of the Kunxu network is Divine Power Network, and as an entity capable of stealing Divine Power, the Evil God is naturally exceptionally sensitive to network signals.

"Is the signal weak?"

After hearing Fu Ji's reminder, Zhang Yu guessed that this was probably related to gang warfare.

Since becoming Gold Medal Teacher in the Dark Learning Gang, Zhang Yu has mainly focused on teaching, but he has also come into contact with some of the inside stories of gang struggles.

In particular, Bai Zhenzhen is now fighting on the front line, experiencing life-and-death battles with the experts of the Gold Class Gang time and time again. Sometimes she comes back in the middle of the night with injuries. In the past two months, she has talked to Zhang Yu a lot about gang conflicts.

"When gangs fight, in order to avoid alerting the constables and Orthodox God, they often choose locations that are sparsely populated, have poor infrastructure, and preferably have no surveillance."

Zhang Yu looked at the suburban road and thought to himself that this place should meet the conditions of being sparsely populated and without surveillance cameras.

"The second option is to use a signal jammer to temporarily block the network signal."

"However, this kind of signal jammer can only operate in places where the Orthodox God don't pay much attention, and it can only last for a few minutes at most, otherwise it will attract the attention of the God Department..."

A flurry of thoughts raced through Zhang Yu's mind, and he made a judgment. "It seems Black Crow's warning was correct. The Gold Class Gang is targeting me, trying to strike at the Dark Learning Gang by attacking me, their Gold Medal Teacher..."

Just as Zhang Yu was making his decision, four incredibly strong figures had already appeared in front of and behind him on the path, surrounding Zhang Yu from both sides.

In the low temperatures of early December, wisps of white vapor rose and fell with the breaths of the four people, slowly dissipating only after being exhaled a long distance under the streetlights.

As the four of them walked towards Zhang Yu, intense Martial Dao Intent surged forth, pressing down on Zhang Yu as they circulated their inner energy.

At the same time, as the four people quickened their pace, the muscles and bones inside their bodies crackled and popped as they circulated, like the sound of war drums echoing through the night sky.

Whether it was the surging airflow between breaths, the overwhelming Martial Dao Intent, or the commotion caused by the collision of bones, Zhang Yu could sense that the four people attacking from both sides all possessed bodies honed through countless trials and tribulations, and fighting will tempered by life-and-death battles. They were all definitely Qi Refining Peak experts who had graduated many years ago.

If it were six months ago, or even two months ago, Zhang Yu had been attacked by four Qi Refining Peak experts, and his only option would have been to run.

But now Zhang Yu has not only reached the Qi Refining Limit in terms of magic power and Physical Strength, but he has also pushed more than a dozen Cultivation Method to level Level 10, including many top-level Qi Refining Period Cultivation Method.

Now, the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo is beginning to take shape.

Sensing the four powerful figures approaching from both sides, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Very well, today I'll use the four of you to test the true quality of my newly formed Martial Dao Sacred Embryo."

Then Zhang Yu took a step forward and met the two people in front of him.

The four powerful figures raised an eyebrow upon seeing this, and one of them, a silver-haired man, sneered, "Oh? You're not running?"

"I don't need to run," Zhang Yu said calmly. "But you four, you still have time to run if you do."

The silver-haired man sneered, "Arrogant."

Before they arrived, they knew that Ma Yunteng was quite strong, but no matter how strong he was, when all four of them were at the peak of the Qi Refining Period, it was an absolute advantage to fight one against four.

The next moment, the four of them, accompanied by the sounds of wind and thunder, surrounded and attacked Zhang Yu from all four directions.

Amidst a series of booming sounds, Zhang Yu blocked the punches and kicks of the two powerful men in front with his hands, while the two powerful men behind him took the opportunity to unleash fierce Gang Qi from their palms and slam them hard into Zhang Yu's back.

With a loud bang, the silver-haired man looked at Zhang Yu, who had been hit head-on, and sneered, "Now let's see who's going to run away?"

Zhang Yu ignored him, focusing instead on experiencing the effects of the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo.

For the next ten seconds or so, Zhang Yu parried his opponent's attacks while simultaneously using various parts of his body to withstand the force of his punches, palm strikes, and Sword Qi...

He silently felt the opponent's palm force being neutralized by the Copper Armor Corpse Skin and the Formless Cloud Gang, and then shared and borne by the flesh, bones, and organs tempered by Cultivation Method such as the Thunder Marrow Cleansing Scripture, the Whale Tendon Nine Transformations, and the Five Qi Organ Refining Method.

During the process of enduring these fierce attacks, Zhang Yu could feel that "his bones and internal organs were almost completely unharmed."

"The skin, flesh, and fascia have suffered some wear and tear from the heavy impact, but they are recovering rapidly."

"With the blessing of the six Cultivation Method of the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo, they are interconnected and operate as a unified whole, giving my ability to withstand blows a qualitative leap compared to before, making me at least 60% stronger."

"With the simultaneous activation of the six Cultivation Method, this body seemed to come alive; stagnant blood was expelled, wounds were healing, and the body was reducing swelling, inflammation, and fever on its own..."

Zhang Yu estimated in his mind. "Ordinary blunt force injuries from punches and kicks will heal on their own in about one or two minutes because of my strong resistance to blows."

"If it's a wound from a knife or sword, it will probably heal in 5 or 6 minutes."

"Is this what they call a surge in resilience and the ability to heal from external injuries?"

At this moment, Zhang Yu had a general understanding of this newly formed Martial Dao Sacred Embryo.

The four powerful figures who had been besieging him for over ten seconds gradually changed their expressions from initial coldness and excitement to confusion and then shock. The silver-haired man shouted, "This person is proficient in many protective divine skills; ordinary fist and foot techniques are useless. We must use Special Magical Power to injure him!"

In an instant, apart from the silver-haired man who was already wielding Sword Qi, the other three powerful individuals also changed their moves, their attacks either scorching hot, radiating icy coldness, or flashing with lightning.

Clearly, they all used martial arts Martial Arts that unleashed Special Magical Power.

Faced with such an offensive, Zhang Yu, who already had a general understanding of the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo, did not continue to resist. Instead, with a boom, streams of Formless Cloud Gang surged from his body, surrounding him completely.

Whoosh!

The silver-haired man unleashed a sword Sword Qi from his fingertips, but it felt as if the sword had been swept into a deep-sea current, deflecting directly towards his companion.

At the same time, another companion unleashed a scorching fist, guided by the Formless Cloud Gang, aimed at the silver-haired man's waist.

The silver-haired man twisted his waist with all his might and shook his sword, managing to dodge the punch and also avoid his own sword strike.

He thrust his sword at Zhang Yu with all his might, the Sword Qi colliding with the opponent's palm, but he felt that the magical power emanating from the opponent's palm was icy cold, wasn't it his companion's Frost Palm Power?

As the fierce battle continued, the silver-haired man and his three companions grew increasingly alarmed.

They felt no advantage in outnumbering each other at all. Instead, their attacks were always redirected to their companions. Even the Special Magical Power they unleashed was absorbed by Zhang Yu, circulated along his meridians, and then slapped back at them with a palm strike.

Even though it was four of them against one, it felt like they could only fight Zhang Yu one-on-one.

Sometimes, there's even a misconception that Zhang Yu is the one constantly being covered and helped by his teammates, and that he's the one with the most people.

The silver-haired man was shocked. "This person's skill in manipulating magical power and using it against others has reached its pinnacle!"

"In addition to his physically robust physique and the support of several Body Protection Technique, the more numerous the enemies in a chaotic battle, the more advantageous he becomes!"

Meanwhile, Zhang Yu was also enjoying the fight more and more. He thought to himself, "With the blessing of the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo, my resistance to blows and the speed of healing from external injuries are accelerated. When I use the opponent's force against them, I can withstand a higher limit, and I can borrow and control more power, making the fight much easier..."

But at that moment, Zhang Yu sensed that the four people in front of him were about to retreat.

"Oh? You're only trying to run away now that you've fought this long?"

The silver-haired man was indeed considering retreating, after all, the network blocking time was limited, and the Dark Learning Gang's stronghold was nearby, so they would soon receive reinforcements.

"The four of us alone can't take him down; if this drags on any longer, things will get complicated."

Thinking this through, the silver-haired man decisively shouted, "Retreat!"

But in the next instant, Zhang Yu's body suddenly surged with a surge of Formless Cloud Gang, and as the Great Sun Qi Sea transformed into a pitch-black abyss, it completely swallowed the four figures.

The four silver-haired men felt as if they had entered the bottomless seabed, where violent Gang Qi simulated the operation of the Back Dragon Overturning Mountain Hand and the Dragon Elephant Mountain Shattering Palm, disrupting their center of gravity.

At that moment, they realized something: although the other party should be at the same level as them, also at the peak of Qi Refining Peak, there are still differences between peak levels.

A moment later, when Black Crow arrived with a group of his gang, they only found four people lying on the ground, already knocked unconscious.

Standing to the side, Zhang Yu met the awe-inspiring gazes of Black Crow and the others, and casually said, "These four are yours to handle. I should get a bonus, right?"

Black Crow quickly said, "Teacher Ma, you defeated the expert from the Gold Class Gang, so there must be a reward. I know you want cash, so I'll go prepare it in a bit, and you can get it next time you come."

On his way back to his apartment, Zhang Yu reflected on the day's battle, thinking to himself, "The Martial Dao Sacred Embryo has indeed greatly improved my abilities."

"While they're all at the Qi Refining Peak, these guys are far inferior to A-Zhen now, and to that guy before (Ye Lingxiao)..."

"If I had possessed my current strength in the previous Foundation Establishment Exam, I could have competed with that guy (Ye Lingxiao), right?"

Recalling Ye Lingxiao's performance in the previous Foundation Establishment Exam, Zhang Yu felt a surge of fighting spirit. "With only this last month left, I need to continue earning money and cultivating, to further elevate my Martial Dao Sacred Embryo..."

With the assassination attempt against Zhang Yu failing, the struggle between the Dark Learning Gang and the Gold Class Gang intensified.

Over the next ten days, the two sides clashed repeatedly, not only throwing Copyright Bomb at each other but also printing and distributing pirated versions of each other's martial arts manuals for free, thus forging a deep-seated feud.

In this fierce battle, even the security teams of Deep Sea Corporation and Xianyun Corporation began to suffer casualties.

In these successive gang wars, Le Mulan (Bai Zhenzhen) broke through the encirclement several times, defeating the opposing leader in a melee of hundreds of people and escaping unscathed. She made a name for herself in the Dark Tutoring World of Songyang City and became unparalleled in prestige within the Dark Learning Gang.

Especially due to the repeated deployment of Copyright Bomb, coupled with the lightning-fast movements of their attacks, they were known as the Copyright Lightning of the Dark Learning Gang, and were said to bring ruin to wherever they went, stopping the weeping of the poor at night.

Time passed amidst the chaotic gang warfare, and it gradually came to mid-December.
