Just as Zhang Yu and Ye Lingxiao activated their Divine Spiritual Root Combat Suit.

Huang Zichou continued, "During these three exams today, there will be no restrictions on any medications."

"After all, the body's tolerance to drugs, and whether the potential and foundation will be damaged by drug use... these are all within the scope of today's exam."

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground around them trembled slightly, and rows of medicine cabinets rose up, revealing various types of medicines in front of Zhang Yu and Ye Lingxiao.

Huang Zichou then said, "You may take any of the medicines here."

"Of course, if you brought your own medicine, you can use it if you wish."

At this point, Huang Zichou thought to himself, "Luckily, after this round of exams, there are only two people left. Considering the money collected this time, I should be able to break even and make a profit today."

Zhang Yu's eyes lit up as he looked at the rows of medicine cabinets.

Although his magical power and Physical Strength have already reached their limits, his Dao Heart can still be enhanced with the help of medicine.

Recalling how he had scrimped and saved over the past three months, spending all his money on Cultivation Method and not taking any medicine for a long time, Zhang Yu's eyes grew increasingly hungry as he looked at the medicine cabinet.

At the same time, Huang Zichou went on to introduce the Divine Spiritual Root on the two men, "The Divine Spiritual Root you are using today are called Mystic Armor Spirit Root Divine Spiritual Root, which are mass-produced for military operations."

"Replenishing mana and physical strength is merely the most basic function of the Mystic Armor Spirit Root."

"Next, the Mystic Armor Spirit Root will officially enter testing mode."

"During the testing phase, the stronger your physical performance becomes, the higher the power of your Mystic Armor Spirit Root will be."

"Although the extra functions of this battle suit have been removed, the Mystic Armor Spirit Root has been completely preserved. As the power continues to increase, the Mystic Armor Spirit Root will display more functions and demonstrate them one by one. There may be some unusual phenomena during this process, but you two don't need to panic..."

Listening to Huang Zichou's words, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "This sounds... like he's demonstrating the functions of the Mystic Armor Spirit Root?"

Just as Zhang Yu was listening attentively to Huang Zichou's explanation, he suddenly heard a loud bang, and a shockwave erupted from Ye Lingxiao's body.

Zhang Yu casually brushed aside the incoming shockwave and turned to look in Ye Lingxiao's direction.

At that moment, Ye Lingxiao was surrounded by surging winds, and the air around him was distorted in an unusual way. The power level on his sleeve had clearly increased to 10%.

Huang Zichou smiled slightly and looked at Ye Lingxiao, saying, "You've grasped it quite quickly. The Mystic Armor Spirit Root's Testing Mode is to continuously improve the physical body's operational efficiency."

"The more effort you exert, the more you channel your energy, and the more explosive you become, the more you can stimulate the power of your Mystic Armor Spirit Root."

The reason Ye Lingxiao was able to grasp this point so quickly was simply because, as a descendant of the Ye Clan, he was not entirely ignorant about Divine Spiritual Root.

Although he, as a high school student, does not have the authority to use Divine Spiritual Root, many of the people he knows belong to government departments and have the authority to use Divine Spiritual Root.

He had seen others use Divine Spiritual Root since he was a child, and he already knew how to do it in the testing mode of Divine Spiritual Root.

He appeared to be standing still, but in reality, his Qi and Blood were surging, and every muscle in his body was exerting its own power, which indeed caused his Divine Spiritual Root power to increase.

Huang Zichou continued, "When the power of the Mystic Armor Spirit Root reaches 10%, it can activate the Spiritual Opportunity Field, transmitting physical power through the Spiritual Energy energy to strike the target from a distance."

After saying that, Huang Zichou gestured towards Ye Lingxiao with his lip and said, "You can show me."

Ye Lingxiao obediently struck out with his palm.

A palm strike without any magical power was simply delivered, yet it seemed as if an air cannon had been fired.

As the palm force rapidly transmitted through the Spiritual Energy, it directly formed a shockwave that slowly dissipated dozens of meters away.

Watching this scene, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Damn, this is starting to look more and more like an advertisement."

Huang Zichou continued, "You can continue. Remember, in test mode, only by fully utilizing the power of your physical body and operating it to the fullest extent can you improve the efficiency of your Divine Spiritual Root."

On the other side, Ye Lingxiao released the restraint on his muscles, and his body suddenly expanded, growing into a small giant. His Qi and Blood surged violently, bursting out waves of heat.

As he did this, the power of the Divine Spiritual Root indeed increased, and the number on his sleeve surged to 18.12%.

On the other hand, Zhang Yu made no move. Instead, he calmly walked to the medicine cabinet and began to select medicines that could enhance his Dao Heart.

Within the communication network of the Orthodox God, Huang Zichou recalled the gap between Zhang Yu and Ye Lingxiao in the previous round and said, "Has this kid given up? Is he just planning to freeload some medicine?"

Another Orthodox God said, "Judging from their performance in the last exam, the difference in their cultivation time over the past year is indeed substantial. It's normal for him to lack confidence; there's always another chance next year." At the same time, a "Laughing Crying Emoji" in the audience said, "Mom, has Ye Lingxiao's opponent given up?"

The person with the "Smiling Emoji" casually said, "After all, Ye Lingxiao is the Strongest High School Student on the first floor. It's normal for his opponent to give up."

At the other end of the audience, a viewer with a Mao Mao Tou looked at Zhang Yu and sneered, "Retreating without a fight, unwilling to take even the slightest risk of failure? No matter how talented you are, our Ten Thousand Laws University doesn't need someone like that."

The other representative from Ten Thousand Laws University, standing next to the Mao Mao Tou, sported a husky head and chuckled, "You Finance Department are all the cream of the crop, you can just throw them away like that, but our Civil Engineering Department welcomes students like that."

"And didn't you look at the information? The two of them are a year apart. I'm quite optimistic about Zhang Yu. If he takes the exam again next year, he should be able to pass the Foundation Establishment Certificate. In the future, he might become quite skilled at the Fill the Sea, building Heavenly Palace, and even renovating and repairing Kunxu."

Mao Mao Tou pouted and looked at Ye Lingxiao, saying, "This talent is indeed remarkable, but unfortunately, his Immortal Dao Potential is still a bit lacking. He's ultimately just a little short of being able to join my Finance Department."

The Er Ha Tou chimed in, "Your standards are too high. This is already the heir of the wealthiest Lineage on the first floor. If you still think he lacks the Immortal Dao Potential, then who on the first floor has enough Immortal Dao Potential?"

The Mao Mao Tou said proudly, "The Finance Department is one of the strongest departments in our school. How could we not be very selective in our admissions?"

"Besides, our department hasn't admitted any students from the Layer 1 for over fifty years. If the school leaders hadn't sent me to take a look, do you think I would have been in charge of the Foundation Establishment Exam for this floor?"

Er Ha Tou smiled but didn't say anything. He also knew that the Finance Department valued the Immortal Dao Potential the most, and the guys who got in were all arrogant. Apart from the other departments at Ten Thousand Laws University that were also at the top, they probably thought that other departments were just security guards, workers, and waiters.

After all, even within the same university, the difference between departments is like a mountain. The toilets in the Finance Department probably smell better than the dorm rooms in the Civil Engineering Department.

The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

Just then, Mao Mao Tou suddenly said, "Old Dog, want to make a bet? I bet on Ye Lingxiao to win."

Er Ha Tou knew this Finance Department's gambling addiction had flared up again, and shook his head irritably, saying, "I don't gamble."

While most people at the scene were focusing their attention on Ye Lingxiao...

Zhang Yu, standing in front of the medicine cabinet, was pleasantly surprised as he looked at the medicine he had just received.

"Hahaha, these Orthodox God didn't cut corners; they used the best medicines I wouldn't normally buy."

Although they didn't have the top-tier products like Dao Dissolution Sustained Release Capsule, Magical Power Meridian Injection, and Imitation Phoenix Function Element from last time, they were all of various second-rate quality, which made Zhang Yu even more excited.

Seeing that he could casually grab Dao Heart Potion worth tens of thousands, Zhang Yu immediately gulped it down. He felt the medicinal power being absorbed through his internal organs and quickly transforming into streams of cool air that rushed straight to the top of his head.

A moment later, he felt as if his brain had been wound up again and again, his thoughts became clearer and clearer, his mental techniques became more and more efficient, and the Remnant Ox in his mind became clearer and clearer.

Just then, a bright light came from the examination room.

Zhang Yu turned his head and saw that Ye Lingxiao was enveloped in a layer of spiritual light, like a circular protective shield, covering Ye Lingxiao from head to toe.

Meanwhile, the number displaying the power of Ye Lingxiao 'Divine Spiritual Root on his sleeve had risen to 30.05%.

Huang Zichou chimed in, "If the power of the Mystic Armor Spirit Root can reach over 30%, it can activate a layer of Mystic Armor Magic Shield, forming a protective shield with magic power, which can almost ignore threats below Military Grade."

At the same time, one could see strange patterns constantly emerging from Ye Lingxiao's undulating muscles, transforming into dragon scales—the Level 10 Expert-level Cultivation Method, Great Heavenly Dragon Divine Power.

Immediately afterwards, his fascia continued to expand, and his skin began to turn bluish-black. He had already activated the Level 10 Expert Level Body Protection Technique - Elephant Demon Tendon Entangling Transformation.

As Ye Lingxiao activated various Cultivation Method with his physical body, the power of his Divine Spiritual Root continued to increase rapidly, quickly breaking through the 40% mark.

He glanced at Zhang Yu, who was still taking his medicine in the distance, and thought to himself, "Aren't they going to start? Have they really given up?"

The thought that his opponent had given up so easily filled Ye Lingxiao with a sudden sense of boredom—a feeling of frustration that after three months of meticulous preparation, his opponent had collapsed before he could even exert any effort.

Just then, Zhang Yu felt a slight pain in his head, realizing that he had reached the limit of this Dao Heart Potion.

Level 8 (89.5%) → Level 8 (89.6%)

"Oh? So your Dao Heart has grown again?"

Wiping his mouth, Zhang Yu patted his stomach, thinking to himself, "I'm about 70% full. I'll stop taking my medicine here for today."

He put down the medicine bottle and walked back to the center of the examination room step by step. With each step Zhang Yu took, his muscles trembled.

This is Zhang Yu warming up by exercising all his muscles, bones, and internal organs.

As he warmed up, the power of his Mystic Armor Spirit Root gradually began to increase.
