Congratulations to Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen on Passing the Foundation Establishment Certificate Exam

After leaving the examination hall, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen boarded the train back home.

Upon learning that the two of them had both passed the Foundation Establishment Certificate exam, Fu Ji laughed heartily, "Great! I knew I hadn't misjudged you two. Now all you have to do is complete Foundation Establishment before entering university."

"This way, you can start in the Foundation Establishment Class as soon as you enter university, which means you've already got one foot in the door of graduate school admission."

Thinking of this, Fu Ji felt a surge of excitement. What's the use of just going to university? Can't you find a good job without taking the postgraduate entrance exam?

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu frowned and said in a low voice, "Foundation Establishment before university? You make it sound as easy as buying medicine at the school gate?"

Zhang Yu knew that Foundation Establishment required his own Spirit Root to cooperate with it. He needed to plant the Spirit Root in his dantian and make it a complete part of his body, which meant that he needed to buy a Spirit Root.

Given his status as the Strongest High School Student on the Kunxu First Layer, he should at least be at the Foundation Establishment with Heavenly Spiritual Root, right?

But the price of Heavenly Spiritual Root is often tens of millions. How many classes would he have to Dark Learning Gang, how many extra classes at the Red Pagoda, to raise enough money to buy one before entering university?

"But A-Zhen..."

Seeing Zhang Yu's gaze, Bai Zhenzhen rolled her eyes and said, "No way, I need to raise the money myself."

Zhang Yu understood what the other party meant. Although the other party had their own Spirit Root that allowed them to Foundation Establishment, they did not want people to know that they were born with a Spirit Root.

Therefore, if Bai Zhenzhen wanted to conceal her innate Spirit Root, the only option was to scrape together the money to buy a Heavenly Spiritual Root Spirit Root cover up the fact that she possessed one.

Fu Ji smiled and continued in their minds, "Indeed, the higher the grade of the Spirit Root during Foundation Establishment, the better the effect. Zhang Yu, you should at least use a Heavenly Spiritual Root."

"But the price of Heavenly Spiritual Root is something you can't afford right now."

"But when did I say you should bear the cost yourselves?"

"Weren't there many university representatives coming to watch your Foundation Establishment Exam this time?"

"Universities also need to consider enrollment performance. After all, good universities need to recruit good students to maintain their competitiveness and rating, while less competitive universities also need to recruit good students to strive for a higher rating."

"Given your performance in this Foundation Establishment Exam, those university representatives will definitely not remain indifferent; they will surely send someone to contact you."

"Although they can't easily come down on their own, they'll probably contact you through some companies."

"Anyway, as long as you get their support, take advantage of the generous conditions they offer, and work hard to earn money, there's definitely a chance you can complete the Foundation Establishment before university."

Zhang Yu nodded slightly upon hearing this, then recalled that Deng Bingding had said something similar before, that they would encounter early recruitment by universities.

Just then, Fu Ji reminded them, "The first thing you need to do right now is to find a small city to get off in, digest what you've learned from this Foundation Establishment Exam, and improve your strength."

Bai Zhenzhen asked, "Aren't we going straight back to Songyang? Is it to give those representatives a chance to cool off, to make them aware of each other's presence, and to drive up the price?"

Fu Ji smiled slightly, "That's only one aspect."

Zhang Yu's gaze sharpened. "Is it related to the Zhou Family?"

Bai Zhenzhen also realized what was going on. "Since someone in the Zhou Family family guessed that we participated in the Foundation Establishment Exam, they might guess that we passed the Foundation Establishment Exam once they discover that many university representatives have come to contact us."

"They might react in two ways: either they'll try to further ease tensions with us."

"Either... we take action directly."

Having experienced countless gang wars in the Dark Tutoring World, Bai Zhenzhen knows all too well how brutal such struggles for survival and profit can be. Even if there is only a very low chance of encountering a fight or brawl, one must be extremely cautious.

Zhang Yu added, "Especially since they might know who we are."

Although Zhang Yu didn't utter the words "Evil God," Bai Zhenzhen understood what he meant.

Just as Fu Ji analyzed before, the higher-ups in the Zhou Family likely knew about their identities as followers of the Evil God god.

If this is taken into account, the other party is likely to resort to more drastic measures.

After all, in the struggle between followers of Evil God gods, neither side dares to disturb the Orthodox God.

Zhang Yu said, "So you're worried they'll do something desperate?"

Fu Ji said, "We can't say for sure, but we have to be careful. Anyway, you won't lose anything by taking precautions."

"You can take advantage of these few days away to digest what you've gained and further improve your strength."

"While you're gone, people looking for you at Songyang High School will be waiting for you there. The more people waiting for you, the more the Zhou Family will hesitate to act against you, and they certainly won't dare to make a move against you."

"You and A-Zhen should even turn off your phones; there's no need to rush to contact them."

Zhang Yu, however, was still thinking about the Zhou Family.

Zhang Yu always felt like he had a fishbone stuck in his throat about this being who might know his identity as a follower of the Evil God god.

Fu Ji said, "To completely resolve the Zhou Family's problems, you will ultimately have to rely on your own efforts."

Zhang Yu nodded slightly. He could take advantage of this time to first cultivate Cultivation Method that was a reward from the Foundation Establishment Exam, and then use the interest-free three million loan to buy another Cultivation Method to cultivate.

In this way, he will be able to achieve the final effect of the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo.

While Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen were hiding outside cultivating...

Inside Ziyun High School.

Looking at the test report in her hand, Le Mulan exclaimed in surprise, "This is Zhang Yu's sweat?"

Le Jingchen Righteous Path, "It's your and Zhang Yu's combined sweat. It's a pity his sweat was contaminated by yours; otherwise, it would have been even cleaner."

Le Mulan Outer Dao, "He's that powerful?"

Le Jingchen sighed, "It must be some company's new technology, and this kid's being used as a guinea pig."

"After all, he's the kind of guy who can sell his competition qualification for money. He probably doesn't plan to go to a good university, right?"

Recalling the incident involving the Zhou Family, especially the intervention of Sixth-Rank God, Le Jingchen speculated, "Perhaps he's on the path of Divine Path? Perhaps he'll become a vessel for some great god."

Le Mulan lowered her gaze slightly. For some reason, she felt a sense of regret when she thought about how Zhang Yu, with his talent, was denied the opportunity to enter the top ten because of his background, and could only embark on the Divine Path to become the material for the descent of a great god.

"Let him train me a few more times before I graduate high school."

Just then, Le Jingchen's phone rang. He answered it, paused slightly, and said, "Um... it's what I entered into the database."

"Yes, the other company's test subject is named Zhang Yu."

"Contact him?"

After hanging up the phone, Le Jingchen looked up with some confusion. "Purple Cloud Pharmaceutical... The call came from the Immortal Capital headquarters, asking me to contact Zhang Yu, saying that someone at headquarters has something to say to him."

Hearing that the call was from headquarters, a hint of doubt flashed in Le Mulan's eyes. She knew that the Immortal Capital headquarters wouldn't contact them casually unless it was something important, especially not directly to Le Jingchen at Ziyun High School.

Le Mulan thought to herself, "Could Zhang Yu's condition really be a test by Purple Cloud Pharmaceutical's competitors? What do Purple Cloud's higher-ups want to do to Zhang Yu?"

At Le Jingchen's suggestion, Le Mulan called Zhang Yu, but the call went unanswered.

"No wonder they came here; was it because they couldn't get through to me on the phone either?"

Le Jingchen thought for a moment and said, "Go to Songyang High School, find him, and then contact me."

Inside Songyang High School.

Zhou Chechen was radiating a chilling aura as he practiced his family's secret Cultivation Method.

Looking back on the past few months, he felt powerless time and time again.

"I'm still too weak. Like Zhang Yu, I'm just a pawn caught up in the grand scheme of things, manipulated by others, and unable to make my own choices."

Thinking of this, a cold glint flashed in Zhou Chechen's eyes. "But I'm different from Zhang Yu."

The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

"Judging from his decision to give up his competition qualification, did he give up the opportunity to get into one of the top ten universities because the Orthodox God behind him forbade him to do so?"

"He's destined to be a pawn for life, but I still have a chance."

"In the remaining time of my senior year, I will give it my all and make sure I get into one of the top ten universities."

"I don't want to be a pawn like that anymore."

On the other side of the Training Field, Lan Ling was also practicing diligently. Perhaps stimulated like him, she was also making a final sprint, hoping to win a ranking in the remaining competitions of her senior year and strive for more opportunities to enter the top ten universities.

Just then, a booming sound came from the sky.

Zhou Chechen looked out the window with some confusion and found that a Flying Boat was hovering above Songyang High School, and then several people jumped out of it.

But this seemed to be just the beginning. Shortly after the Flying Boat appeared, another sword light pierced the sky and landed on the campus.

Some time later, someone arrived at the school gate in a luxury car.

And so, one after another, people entered Songyang High School.

Soon after, Zhou Chechen heard the news that everyone who came was supposedly from a large company.

Xianyun Corporation, Tianwu Group, Heart Creation Medical, Wan Shou Animal Husbandry, Wanli Group... Not only are they all from major companies, but they are also all from the headquarters in Immortal Capital.

Hearing this, Zhou Chechen asked in surprise and doubt, "What are so many people from big companies doing at Songyang High School?"

He simply couldn't understand how such a small school Songyang High School could attract the attention of so many large companies from Immortal Capital.

"Could it be that someone has awakened their Spirit Root?"

"It can't be that someone owes so many big companies money, can it?"

Zhou Chechen quickly sent students to inquire and learned that the representatives of these large companies had been taken to the conference room, where the Principal and several school leaders were currently entertaining them.

Just as Zhou Chechen was filled with doubt, the Principal sent someone to summon him, in his capacity as Student Union President, to jointly entertain the company representatives.

Upon entering the conference room and facing more than a dozen company representatives, Zhou Chechen felt instantly inferior, considering the large companies behind them.

In particular, he could sense that these company representatives were definitely not ordinary employees. The aura of wealth emanating from them was overwhelming, and their arrogant attitude was exactly like that of the legendary Immortal Capital Master.

One of the women looked at him with a smile and said, "This student must be the Student Union President, right? Hello, I'm Zhang Bi from Tianwu Group. Do you know where Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen went?"

"Zhang Yu? Bai Zhenzhen?" Zhou Chechen was slightly taken aback. "You're here to see Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen?"

Zhang Bi said with a smile, "Yes, there are some things I want to talk to them about, but I just can't get in touch with them."

At this point, she glared at the crowd. "Some people couldn't hold back and came directly to the school, making us all make a trip, only to find that Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen were absent due to leave."

"You're the Student Union, do you know where he went? Or do you know any classmates who are acquainted with him and can contact him?"

Upon hearing the question, even with Zhou Chechen's rich life experience, he froze on the spot, unsure of what to say for a moment.

The Principal, who was standing nearby, asked, "Gentlemen, what exactly do you need Zhang Yu for? Perhaps we can help."

The company representatives smiled but remained silent.

They couldn't tell the other party that they had all been sent there on orders from their Upper Level.

It's even less likely that they would reveal that the Upper Level companies were also appointed by the universities above them.

They didn't mention the Foundation Establishment Exam at all, which was a tacit understanding among the top forces on the first Kunxu First Layer.

Although these company representatives were employees, they all came from wealthy families in Immortal Capital, and no one would dare to break this unspoken rule.

Their plan was to secretly meet with Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen, exchange ideas, and reach an agreement.

Little did they know which company's reckless individual had barged into Songyang High School first.

The dean of students on the other side said, "I know Zhang Yu is very outstanding, but if we're looking for excellent students, besides Zhang Yu, our school has other excellent students, like this Student Union Zhou Chechen..."

Just as the head of the teaching department was about to promote his own students, a chuckle came from one of the company representatives.

It's unclear who uttered that laugh, but it made all the other company representatives laugh as well.

The students from Songyang High School looked on, confused, as the representatives began to laugh. They didn't know what they had said wrong, and could only awkwardly force a smile.

Zhou Chechen felt like a clown, being scrutinized and mocked by representatives of giant corporations, yet powerless to do anything about it.

The woman who had spoken earlier said again, "We're only looking for Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen; we're not looking for anyone else. If you don't know where they are, please go and call a few students who know them."

Just then, another commotion arose, and there seemed to be some strange noise in the sky.

Those familiar with the sound of flying swords could tell that at least hundreds of flying swords were shuttling through the sky.

"Is this a war?" someone exclaimed. "Is this also a battlefield of corporate warfare?"

Some leaped out of the window, while others flashed out of the corridor; for a moment, everyone displayed their Divine Ability.

Then, the company representatives and students, including Zhou Chechen, saw hundreds of flying swords pierce the sky, flashing with sword light, forming a line of words in the air.

Congratulations to President Wang Zhang Yu of Oasis Group on Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen's successful completion of their Foundation Establishment Certificate! May their future be bright and boundless, and may they soar to great heights!

The company representatives who saw this line of text knew that some of the old unspoken rules were about to be completely broken.
