During the Body Refinement Class, Zhang Yu was practicing the Level 20 Boundless Spring Autumn Zen move by move, while his Eye Remains were slowly playing the guidance he had just received from the Lang Yougong.

Thanks to the extraordinary capabilities of the Time Remnant Demon Eye, every moment of Lang Yougong's instruction was clearly captured, allowing Zhang Yu to repeatedly review, understand, and compare his own actions at that moment.

"We must also Body Tempering along with our internal Spirit Root..."

"After breaking through to the Foundation Establishment, my Spirit Root became an integral part of my body."

As Zhang Yu cultivated, he felt his Qi Sea Spiritual Root seem to throb slightly, becoming a little more active!

"It really worked!"

Zhang Yu's Boundless Spring Autumn Zen had already been raised to a full Level 20, reaching the limit of Cultivation Method that could be achieved Foundation Establishment Realm!

He already had a very deep understanding of this Body Refining Cultivation Method, but he didn't know about Spirit Root Body Tempering before!

Now, after being enlightened by Lang Yougong, he has made rapid progress. He feels that every time Body Tempering and Spirit Root, his Qi Sea Spiritual Root seem to grow slowly in his body and further merge with his physical body!

While Zhang Yu was diligently absorbing the guidance of the Lang Yougong and constantly tempering his body and Spirit Root, the Lang Yougong continued to instruct the other students. However, by the time class ended, Yu Xinghan, Li Xiao, and several others had not received any guidance from this Body Tempering teacher!

Lang Yougong looked at them calmly and said, "Those of you who didn't receive guidance, don't worry. Body Tempering isn't something that can be done overnight. There's always tomorrow. We'll continue in the next class!"

Watching Lang Yougong disappear in a flash, Li Ni sighed inwardly, "Given Gongshu Jin and Ji Yuan Shu's cultivation conditions and Immortal Dao Potential, they certainly wouldn't lack his guidance!"

"But it's so difficult for us poor people who truly need help to get his guidance!"

"It's a case of some suffering from drought while others are drowning in floods..."

"If I want these teachers to think more highly of me, I need to get better Eye Remains!"

Thinking of this, Li Xiao's contacts popped into his Eye Remains, and he selected his uncle, who had climbed to the Second Layer of his Lineage years ago, and sent him a message!

Li Xiao: Uncle, can I borrow some Spirit Coin?

Li Xiao: I want to buy the Eye Remains, to buy the real Heaven's Eye!

Uncle: Don't you already have Eye Remains?

Li Xiao: Everyone else is using high-end Heaven's Eye or Heavenly Craft. My classmates look down on me for using this cheap stuff, and my teachers ignore me. It's really affecting my studies!

The other party shared a link with you. "Borrow and repay at any time, funds arrive in 3 minutes."

Uncle: Just tell me your name when you go in, you're welcome!

Li Xiao: Uncle, the platform's interest rate is too high. Can I borrow from you directly?

Uncle: You're asking me? I'd ask the platform for a loan too!

Uncle: Besides, you're going to college and Dare to Borrow online loans, what kind of college are you? You should go back to farming as soon as possible, staying here is just a waste of money!

Looking at the other party's reply, Li Xiao sighed softly, thinking to himself, "Yes, if one can't even withstand the pressure of online currency interest rates, how can one bravely climb the path to Immortal Dao?"

Recalling the subtle mockery from Gongshu Jin, Ying Xin, and others, and the overt or covert disregard from the teachers, Li Xiao made a painful decision and clicked on the Lending Platform his uncle had given him!

Meanwhile, Zhang Yu, absorbing the teachings of the Lang Yougong, hurried to the next classroom!

Time flew by in class after class, Zhang Yu enjoyed the pleasure of all kinds of Immortal Dao knowledge flowing into his mind, feeling his Immortal Dao cultivation improving almost every moment!

"Spirit-Flesh Unity, Second Cultivation Method, Magical Power Quality, fusion of Spirit Root... and Foundation Establishment Cultivation Method, and the University Sacred Body, Zhang Yu felt that he had endless things to do and an immense amount of room for improvement!"

That evening, after returning to his dormitory, Zhang Yu continued practicing the Foundation Establishment Body Refinement Seventy-Two Forms at the entrance!

Shortly after Zhang Yu raised the Foundation Establishment Body Refinement Seventy-Two Forms to level 13, Bai Zhenzhen's image flashed in his Eye Remains!

"Yu Zi!" Bai Zhenzhen said with a smile, "Did Gongshu Jin bully you again today?"

"No!" Zhang Yu shook his head and said, "Actually, the classmates and teachers are all very friendly, it's just that the customs here are a bit special!"

Bai Zhenzhen: "By the way, I met a guy from the tenth level here. He also has friends studying in the Daoist Arts Department at Ten Thousand Laws University. I'll introduce you to him sometime..."

"You're still planning to switch from Civil Engineering to Weapon Forging, right? Then you'll have to choose a Artifact Crafting Department professor. You probably won't know any Weapon Forging professors in the Civil Engineering Department, so don't rush into a decision. I'll ask someone to help you inquire..."

"And remember to give me your dorm address, I'll send you some things..."

Zhang Yu said, "Won't this displease the Seven Emotions Divine Lord?"

"Don't worry, would I upset my mom?"

Bai Zhenzhen said, "It's just some food. It's normal for friends to give each other food. It helps build relationships, and that's part of cultivation!"

Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen chatted for a while, but Bai Zhenzhen did most of the talking and Zhang Yu did little!

Zhang Yu could clearly sense that this was because Bai Zhenzhen now knew more and had more ways to help him!

Zhang Yu didn't make a fuss about it. Given his friendship with Bai Zhenzhen, they could take turns using the same Spirit Root. Now that Bai Zhenzhen was successful, she was taking care of him. In the future, when he was successful, he would help Bai Zhenzhen in return. It was all perfectly normal!

This time, however, Bai Zhenzhen hung up the call on her own initiative!

"That's enough, I need to focus on my cultivation from now on. Yu Zi, you should also study hard and practice diligently..."

After hanging up the call, Bai Zhenzhen sighed helplessly.

Just then, a woman's voice rang in her ear. "Huh? Why isn't it hanging there like yesterday?"

"Hmm... Could it be that you're trying to save the other person money on internet fees?"

Hearing the woman's soft laughter, Bai Zhenzhen pursed her lips and said, "Yu Zi has just arrived on the Second Layer, and doesn't have many Spirit Coin yet. It's precisely the time to spend them..."

The woman's voice chuckled softly, "In the end, isn't it just about being poor?"

"Good disciple, your ability to be sentimental even when you were poor is a wonderful talent, and I admire it!"

"But without the protection of money, such talent is destined to perish with the passage of time!"

"Because feelings are something that require money to maintain, the feelings of the poor are destined to be temporary!"

"Your friend is so poor, he can't even afford internet, he lives like a rat. What right does he have to talk about feelings? How long can your relationship last without turning sour?"

Listening to the other person's words, Bai Zhenzhen thought to herself, "This old man... really did make me and Yu Zi stay on the phone just to pressure Zhang Yu with the internet fee!"

Bai Zhenzhen didn't respond to what the other person said, because she knew he was right. If Zhang Yu was just an ordinary poor man, it wouldn't be long before a rift would slowly appear due to the huge gap between them, and their feelings would gradually change.

But Bai Zhenzhen understood even more clearly that Zhang Yu was not an ordinary poor person, but a super poor person, an extremely poor person, a poor person with heaven-defying talent!

Bai Zhenzhen thought to himself, "With Yu Zi's talent and Fu Ji's assistance, he won't stay poor forever. He will definitely catch up with me!"

However, she naturally didn't reveal these thoughts in her mind, nor the secrets about Zhang Yu!

Bai Zhenzhen simply said, "I believe in Zhang Yu!"

The woman laughed, "Alright!"

"Let your friend be your whetstone, adding more resources to your future mastery of the Extreme Emotion Sword Dao!"

125th Layer, dormitory area, Ten Thousand Laws University City!

Watching Bai Zhenzhen's figure disappear on her own, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "A-Zhen... even her speaking speed seems a bit fast today!"

"They're hanging up so early..."

"Could it be that she's thinking about the internet bill and wants to save me money?"

Thinking of this, an even stronger determination suddenly surged in Zhang Yu's heart!

"Damn it, I can't even communicate freely with my best buddies..."

In the next instant, Zhang Yu began practicing the Foundation Establishment Body Refinement Seventy-Two Forms with even greater diligence!

His body left a trail of afterimages as he completed the Cultivation Method again and again in the simplest, laziest, yet fastest way!

At this moment, Zhang Yu felt an overwhelming fighting spirit and an unparalleled domineering will erupt from his body. He wanted to become stronger and make money!

I want to be able to pay my internet bill freely and connect with Bai Zhenzhen 24/7 without any worries.

With such unprecedented focus and a desire for speed, by the time the first lesson of the second day arrived, Zhang Yu had already advanced the Foundation Establishment Body Refinement Seventy-Two Forms to level 17!

He thought to himself, "Based on this calculation, I should be able to cultivate a basic Foundation Establishment Cultivation Method to Level 20 in about 2 to 3 days!"

"Then in at most one month, I will be able to completely master the University Sacred Body!"

Today's first class is called Engineering Array Diagramming, a fundamental course for the Civil Engineering Department students!

The classroom for this class was exceptionally large, accommodating hundreds of people. In addition to the Foundation Establishment Student in Zhang Yu Yu's class, there were also a large number of Qi Refining students!

A teacher, whose entire body was bathed in golden light and whose flesh and blood were no longer discernible, stood on the stage and said, "My name is Tu Lishan, and I am your teacher for this course!"

"This course mainly teaches the drawing and interpretation of engineering Formation blueprints!"

Looking at the teacher's expensive Dharma Skeleton, many students present, especially those in the Qi Refining, couldn't help but show envy!

At Ten Thousand Laws University, the wealthier the student, the greater their potential and the more appreciated they are by the professors!

But the reverse is also true: the wealthier the teacher, the more power they have, and the more students trust and admire them!

" With Earth Teacher being so wealthy, how could he be wrong?"

"A teacher who can earn that much money must be Li Xian."

"Wow." Civil Engineering is really promising; you can actually earn so much money.

Such thoughts flashed through the minds of countless students in the classroom at that moment, and their learning attitude became more focused and serious!

Tu Lishan continued, "You will all become pillars of the Civil Engineering World in the future. The school requires you to understand the Dao of Immortal Dao, be skilled in construction, be capable of management, and be certified to work. These are the core competencies of our Department of Civil Engineering!"

"To achieve this, to possess construction capabilities and quality inspection skills, and to obtain a construction qualification certificate, you must be extremely focused on this course."

Study!"

"After all, building a building requires first establishing an array. Whether it's the University City beneath your feet or the Spirit Heaven outside the city, both contain exquisite Formation..."
