Martial Dao Sacred Embryo Minor Completion, Setting Off for the Exam

Inside an apartment near Ziyun High School.

Zhang Yu was scrolling through the news on his phone when he noticed a news article that made him frown slightly. "Songyang City is becoming increasingly chaotic."

During this time, although Zhang Yu was quietly teaching and cultivating every day, it did not mean that he was completely unaware of what was happening in the outside world.

With the intelligence that Bai Zhenzhen occasionally brought back, coupled with the changes in various news and public opinion on the Internet, he gradually became certain of a fact.

That is, besides the increasingly fierce competition in the Dark Tutoring World, which has even led to companies getting involved, similar phenomena have occurred in other fields.

The Dark Shopping World, the Dark Fake-Medicine World of selling counterfeit drugs, and the Dark Catering World of selling fake ready-made meals... all these gangs are engaged in fierce battles, each using their unique abilities to seize market share.

The companies behind them also face constant competition.

For example, Zhang Yu encountered more discounts and received more coupons on shopping and food delivery platforms, which is a price war between companies.

But Zhang Yu also discovered that many things he had his eye on, even the websites he frequently used, had been reported and taken down—it was a reporting war between companies.

A barrage of negative reviews flooded in, with Cultivation Method experiencing Cultivation Method ratings. Today, social media exposed Purple Cloud Group for pollutant leaks, tomorrow for Red Pagoda Group for cutting corners in meat products, claiming they didn't use additives or drugs...

Zhang Yu knew that the companies were using Internet Water Army to manipulate public opinion.

Although the competition within the company is becoming increasingly fierce, it hasn't had a significant impact on Zhang Yu's daily life. On the contrary, Zhang Yu managed to take advantage of some of the promotional activities.

For example, the Cultivation Method on the Cultivation Technique Platform have been discounted several times, saving him over 100,000 yuan when purchasing Cultivation Method.

Zhang Yu, who was observing the changes in Songyang City, had a feeling that the competition between the gangs and the company only became more and more intense after Oasis Group launched its synthetic meat into the market.

Upon hearing Zhang Yu's guess, Fu Ji said from the side, "Don't overthink this. It's too big of a deal and has nothing to do with us. An An on cultivating your Cultivation Method and preparing for the final Foundation Establishment Exam."

Zhang Yu knew that Fu Ji was right, and sighed. It was indeed not his place as a high school student to think about such things.

After leaving the news webpage, Zhang Yu's gaze returned to the newly purchased discounted Cultivation Method — the Town Law Yuan Body.

Thanks to this discount, he was able to buy the cultivation Cultivation Method ahead of time. However, Zhang Yu, who had been saving up money until today, saw his account balance plummet again, leaving him with only a little over 20,000 yuan.

Whenever he thought of this, Zhang Yu couldn't help but sigh, "Although I've earned a lot in the past two months, I've also spent a lot. Most of the money has been converted into cultivation Cultivation Method and integrated into my body."

The Town Law Yuan Body, which can form the seventh Cultivation Method of the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo, is a Body Refining Cultivation Method that enhances the body's resistance to external magical forces.

"The human skin has Fifth Layer. This method involves using Movement Method to temper the skin step by step, allowing each layer to resist a portion of the magical power invading from the outside..."

"Once the Town Law Yuan Body is cultivated to Level 10, Fifth Layer of the skin on the body are fully tempered, and the physical body will possess powerful magical resistance."

"To allow external magical energy to enter the body is simple; I just need to envelop the other person's magical energy with my own."

Zhang Yu knew that when he used the Imperishable Seal Art to absorb the opponent's magical power, he would need to draw the opponent's magical power into his body.

Zhang Yu recalled the assassination attempt he had last encountered. If he had mastered the Town Law Yuan Body back then, the fight would have been much easier.

Just as Zhang Yu pushed the Town Law Yuan Body to Level 3, accompanied by the sound of the door opening and closing, Bai Zhenzhen slowly walked into the apartment, looking exhausted.

Zhang Yu turned to look at Bai Zhenzhen and felt a palpable killing intent rushing towards him, making Zhang Yu hair stand on end and giving him the illusion that a sword was pointing directly at his throat.

"A-Zhen has become increasingly dangerous ever since he joined the gang war."

However, as Bai Zhenzhen entered the apartment, the murderous intent emanating from her gradually dissipated, and she regained her former high school genius demeanor.

Zhang Yu glanced at the time and said with some surprise, "So early today? You're back at only two o'clock?"

Bai Zhenzhen casually took off her combat jacket and threw it on the ground, revealing it covered with descriptions of various divine skills and techniques.

Zhang Yu knew that the Cultivation Method described on the mask were fake, and there was no fine for wearing them, but they could intimidate many people in battle, much like an ancient general wearing a helmet shaped like a ghost or god, serving to scare opponents on the battlefield.

Her trousers and underwear were also casually taken off, and Bai Zhenzhen walked naked into the bathroom under Zhang Yu's accustomed gaze.

Zhang Yu could see several shallow scars on Bai Zhenzhen's arm, and even a few faint words.

Those were the seal weapons used by some of the experts in the Gold Class Gang. One seal could imprint a set of Cultivation Method on an opponent. Although it was not fatal on the spot, the consequences were enough to bankrupt them.

However, judging from the fact that Bai Zhenzhen only had a few words grazed on her, she clearly dodged the opponent's move at the crucial moment.

Upon hearing Zhang Yu's question, Bai Zhenzhen turned around and said with a blank expression, "I just tied their students up to the gang, and the Dark Learning Gang and the Gold Class Gang announced a ceasefire."

Zhang Yu quickly turned around and scolded, "I've told you so many times, stop walking around the house! What if you cause me to lose my means of production? It's all money!"

Bai Zhenzhen tilted her head, looking impatient. "We're all so familiar with each other, isn't it tiring to hide around just to change clothes? It's a waste of time. Do we have that much time?" Then she sneered, looking at Zhang Yu with disdain. "Tsk... And not only me, but don't you have that problem too?"

"When I came back last night, you had already left. I didn't even see you, did I? Then I saw the trash can was full of wads of paper..."

Zhang Yu slammed his hand on the floor, angrily saying, "I told you not to rummage through the trash cans!"

"Besides, I use it to wipe my nose, not what you're thinking."

Bai Zhenzhen rolled her eyes, turned her back to Zhang Yu, took off the last pair of shorts, and said impatiently, "Aren't they all the same?"

"Yu Zi, don't you even look at how low the price Red Pagoda offered you has dropped? Your thing is worth less than a glass of water now; it's practically useless."

"You son of a bitch..." Zhang Yu looked at Bai Zhenzhen's face and sighed inwardly, "A-Zhen A-Zhen, have you forgotten how I, your father, worked tirelessly to support you just a few months ago? Now that you can't fetch a good price, you actually say such disheartening things."

Bai Zhenzhen continued, "Having roots is always a problem. After the Foundation Establishment Exam, we won't need to save money anymore. I'll pay for you to get sterilized at the hospital, a one-stop service for you."

After saying that, Bai Zhenzhen went into the bathroom, and soon the sound of water could be heard.

Fu Ji, recalling Bai Zhenzhen's words, was somewhat Outer Dao, "A ceasefire has actually been reached?"

She turned to Zhang Yu and said, "Check the news..."

The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

Zhang Yu picked up his phone and, following Fu Ji's instructions, checked the news. He soon saw the news that Xianyun Corporation and Deep Sea Corporation had announced a cooperation and exchanged shares.

Seeing Zhang Yu's surprised look, Fu Ji smiled and said, "What's so surprising about that? Exchanging shares, binding each other, and then further monopolizing the entire industry—isn't this a common phenomenon in Kunxu? It's been getting worse and worse over the years."

"Furthermore, whether it's the Xianyun Corporation or the Deep Sea Corporation, although they appear to be competitors, ultimately both companies belong to the Myriad Laws Sect, one of the Ten Great Sects."

"As long as someone within the sect mediates, it's not impossible for these two companies to not only cooperate, but also merge."

Fu Ji continued, "However, this collaboration does seem rather abrupt. Take a look at their other news reports."

Zhang Yu said, "After the two companies cooperated, they announced their entry into the food industry? And they're going to cooperate with Oasis Group?"

"Oasis Group... I have this feeling that everything is connected to them?"

Fu Ji thought to herself, "The Oasis Group... is it backed by the Nether Palace? Looks like it's something like that again. I really hope Zhang Yu doesn't get involved."

Fu Ji casually said, "Alright, it's none of your business anyway. Hurry up and cultivate. Your most important thing right now is the Foundation Establishment Exam. Don't worry about anything else."

With the ceasefire between the Dark Learning Gang and the Gold Class Gang, Bai Zhenzhen, no longer needing to fight on the front lines, suddenly had a lot of free time.

So, in her spare time, she would invite the Martial Dao teachers from Songyang High School to accompany her in practical training every day, honing her Cultivation Method and tempering her physical body and magical power in battle.

Days passed by, and before we knew it, it was January.

January 1st.

The final Foundation Establishment Exam will be held in two days.

Inside the apartment, Zhang Yu sat cross-legged, half of his body covered in frost, while the other half was burning hot and steaming.

This is the eighth Cultivation Method he is practicing in the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo — the Kan Ice Li Fire Body Tempering Great Art.

They tempered their bodies with the Kan Ice Magical Power and Li Fire Magical Power respectively, giving their physical bodies a strong ability to adapt to high and low temperatures, and further enhancing their resilience.

This is the crucial moment when Zhang Yu is pushing the Kan Ice Li Fire Body Tempering Great Art to Level 10.

Boom!

With a loud bang, Zhang Yu's body was no longer alternating between cold and hot; instead, his entire body alternated between hot and cold, eventually merging into a state of constant temperature.

Zhang Yu felt the changes in his flesh and blood, and slowly exhaled.

"Finally, the eighth Cultivation Method of the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo has been completed."

After the Kan Ice Li Fire Body Tempering Great Art" was pushed to Level 10, Zhang Yu could feel that his physical body not only had a stronger ability to adapt to temperature changes, but also that after practicing this Cultivation Method, he could fight in either high or low temperature states, each with its own unique uses.

After glancing at the Second Layer of the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo, Zhang Yu laughed and said, "Although I haven't been able to cultivate the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo to its ultimate effect, it should be enough to pass this Foundation Establishment Exam."

Checking his phone, Zhang Yu saw that his leave request had been approved. He thought to himself, "Everything's ready; I can set off now."
