Fu Ji exclaimed, "The students here are like magic engines, constantly absorbing Spiritual Energy and spitting out magic power—and they do it all voluntarily, paying for it!"

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Low-quality magic power in small quantities can't fetch a good price at all!"

"If you can't sell a lot of mana after your mana increases, then you might as well focus on your physical body first and prepare to make money on the construction site!"

Zhang Yu understood that university only lasts ten years, and every step of the plan was important, as it would affect his grades and ranking. He had to be careful!

Now, after receiving Zhang Pianpian's reminder and reflecting on it, he decided to change his cultivation plan!

"Anyway, now that I have the University Sacred Body, I can cultivate any Cultivation Method very quickly. Whether I focus on my Dao Heart, magical power, physical body, or other directions, it doesn't matter!"

With this in mind, Zhang Yu decided to temporarily abandon his original plan to collect the complete set – the Pulse of Long Flow!

"The Qi Vein Everflow can only be temporarily delayed!"

"First, Body Tempering, then make a fortune on the construction site, and once you have the money, further improve your cultivation efficiency!"

"At the same time, try to hide your strength and don't make too shocking a scene! However, his previous cultivation was not in vain. After all, the Primal Chaos Fetal Breathing Scripture allows him to gather Spiritual Energy energy and refine magic power at all times. Even if he wants to focus on his physical body, this is Breathing Technique that he must cultivate!"

At this moment, Zhang Yu opened the Great Library within his Eye Remains, his gaze sweeping over the Expert Level Body Refining Cultivation Method one after another!

"The only Body Refining Cultivation Method I currently possess for the Foundation Establishment Realm is the Boundless Spring Autumn Zen!"

"Level 10 Boundless Spring Autumn Zen is part of the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo!"

"And the Level 20 Boundless Spring Autumn Zen is part of the Martial Dao Sacred Body!"

Zhang Yu guessed that this Martial Dao Sacred Body should be the Foundation Establishment version of the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo!

Based on the effects of the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo, its main benefits include resistance to blows, self-healing, and enhancement of Martial Dao power!

"But right now is the time for me to develop. Pursuing high attack, high defense, and high health is not very meaningful. After all, in Zhang Yu's opinion, what's the use of being able to fight when you first enter the Foundation Establishment? Making money is more important!" Zhang Yu's eyes were on the introductions of Expert-level Cultivation Method in the Great Library. By reading the introductions of these Cultivation Method, he saw one Chain Law Diagram set after another!

"Volcanic Bone Smelting, Young Kunpeng Embryo, Blood-Burning Body-Scorching!"

Zhang Yu pursed his lips. Although he could see the names of each set through the Expert-level Cultivation Method, he wouldn't know the specific effects of these sets unless he actually mastered them!

Www? ttκá n? ℃o

"We can only guess from the name!"

After a frantic browsing and careful selection, Zhang Yu finally chose a set—the Civil Engineering Sacred Body. Although the other sets also looked quite good, for Zhang Yu, it all came down to one thing:

"What's the use of being good at fighting? We college students compete on who has the most money!"

After listing the prices of the Body Refining Cultivation Method under the Civil Engineering Sacred Body from low to high, Zhang Yu first chose the cheapest Expert-level Cultivation Method for the Foundation Establishment Realm, called the Earth Eating Divine Skill!

This Earth -Earth Eating Divine Skill involves condensing a Gluttony Magical Power, then breaking down the materials consumed to temper the Physical Strength. As the Cultivation Method improves, the materials consumed evolve from the lowest level of soil to water, then to concrete, and even steel bars and alloys!

It can be said that the stronger the materials being broken down, the stronger the effect on tempering the body!

Of course, this foundation -Foundation Establishment Cultivation Method strengthens the physical body by consuming materials, which is different from actual eating. Just like eating steel bars and cement can strengthen the body, it won't sustain life. You still need to eat!

However, Zhang Yu had just browsed the introduction to the Cultivation Method when he saw a line of scarlet warning below!

"This Cultivation Method is a legitimate Body Refining Cultivation Method. We do not encourage any theft from construction sites. Cultivators are advised to purchase training ingredients through legitimate channels!"

Zhang Yu was slightly taken aback, then looked down and saw a series of news reports about construction site thefts, including stealing cables, steel bars, concrete, and even Demon Descendant!

"Is this a warning to those who practice this Cultivation Method not to steal food from the construction site?"

After spending 0.3 Spirit Coin, Zhang Yu obtained the electronic Copyright of this Cultivation Method!

After glancing through it briefly, he remembered Zhang Pianpian's reminder. This time, instead of cultivating at the dormitory entrance, he headed to the area below the 100th Layer of Ten Thousand Laws University City!

Zhang Yu crossed the Magnetic Channel and arrived at the 99th floor. His first feeling upon reaching the 99th floor was one of quiet!

The streets were deserted, only dusty concrete!

There were no advertisements, projections, or signs in the air. The entire 99th floor was eerily quiet, whether observed with the naked eye or through Eye Remains observation, as if no one was on the entire floor!

Zhang Yu's gaze swept across the houses on side II of the street, and he could see that most of the windows were dimly lit!

He thought to himself, "Is it because there are so few people on this floor?" Although it felt a bit strange, Zhang Yu wasn't interested in investigating what was going on at the moment. He activated the power of the internal Detection Ritual and sensed that there were indeed far fewer surveillance cameras on this floor!

After descending to the 95th floor, Zhang Yu found a spot without any security cameras!

Along the way, from the 99th floor to the 95th floor, everything was completely silent, and Zhang Yu didn't even encounter a single person!

"Are all mortals concentrated on the Lower Level? Are there fewer people on these levels?"

Shaking his head and suppressing his doubts, Zhang Yu refocused his attention on cultivation!

He swallowed a piece of cement that had been prepared beforehand, then began to condense his Gluttony Magical Power, thus beginning his cultivation of the Earth Eating Divine Skill!

During the practice of this Cultivation Method, Zhang Yu felt his stomach suddenly erupt with an unparalleled and astonishing power. In an instant, combined with the decomposition power of the Gluttony Magical Power, he pulverized the cement into dust!

Zhang Yu, witnessing this scene, was startled and thought to himself, "The University Sacred Body... has granted me Foundation Establishment Peak food digestion..."

Ability!"

"Under these circumstances, the power my digestive system can unleash is probably far greater than the power my hands can generate!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu suddenly realized that the digestive power granted by the University Sacred Body was quite compatible with this Earth Eating Divine Skill. The next moment, he focused on cultivating again!

Earth Eating Divine Skill Level 1.

Fu Ji looked around and thought, "This place is deserted, with no one in sight and no blind spots for surveillance cameras. It's quite suitable for setting up Ritual!"

"Since I advanced to Level 2 Evil God, I've been in this Ten Thousand Laws University City, but I haven't had a chance to establish a new Ritual yet. This might be an opportunity!"

After thinking it over, Fu Ji decided to observe for a while longer and make sure it was safe enough before suggesting that Zhang Yu prepare the Ritual. In the following days, Zhang Yu spent his time outside of class practicing the Earth Eating Divine Skill below the 100th Layer!

The Abandoned Cow Self-Sacrifice Art and the Primal Chaos Fetal Breathing Scripture, and with the assistance of the University Sacred Body, his Dao Heart and magical power were constantly being enhanced!

As for his performance in class and his basic data testing, he subtly concealed his progress using Anti-Detection Ritual, making his improvement seem less astonishing!

Outside the Dharma Skeleton Rental Center!

Li Xiao, Gongshu Jin, Ying Xin, and others walked out chatting and laughing!

"I'll be going now!"

"Okay, let's continue tomorrow!"

"No problem, how could I not have these Spirit Coin?" After chatting and laughing with his classmates, Li Lei walked happily towards the dormitory. At the same time, the current class rankings popped up in his Dharma Skeleton!

Seeing that he was still in 10th place with 295 points, his smile widened even more!

Looking down, he was suddenly surprised. "Zhang Yu has gone from 19th to 18th? 272 points, is this the beginning of his improvement?"

However, Li Xiao simply shook his head. Half of the three-month basic course had already passed, and his opponent was bound to fall behind!

A few days later, Li Xiao opened the class rankings again at dawn. He looked at himself, still ranked 10th with 296 points, and then at Zhang Yu, who had risen to 16th with 275 points. His brows furrowed slightly!

"His score is rising so fast?" Li Xiao thought to himself, "It seems he hasn't been practicing those Basic Cultivation Method haphazardly like before!"

If Zhang Yu were to surpass Li Xiao in one fell swoop and his ranking were to skyrocket, Li Xiao might just give up on competing!

But seeing Zhang Yu climb up the ranks one by one over the past few days, Li only wanted to put in more effort and use more Spirit Coin to suppress Zhang Yu severely!

Just then, Ying Xin's message popped up from the Dharma Skeleton: "Shall we go to the Divine Soul Cloud Sea together today?"

Li Xiao immediately replied, "Go. Let's practice for ten hours today!"

In the following days, Li Xiao cultivated with increasing diligence and effort. His account balance dwindled, his Lending Platform bills piled up, and his cultivation level improved day by day! The first thing he did every morning was to get up and check his and Zhang Yu's rankings!

14th place, Zhang Yu with 279 points!

Li Lei thought to himself, "Just how much did this guy spend?"

12th place, Zhang Yu, 284 points

"His debts are probably no less than mine!"

11th place, Zhang Yu with 296 points

10th place, Li Xiao with 301 points

"There's only one month left before school officially starts, and I absolutely can't lose here!" Watching Zhang Yu catch up with him step by step over these days, and his Comprehensive Score getting closer and closer to his own, Li Xiao felt increasingly anxious!

"I can only repay my loan once I get to the construction site."

"The struggle for Immortal Dao is all about seizing the initiative; otherwise, falling behind even once means falling behind at every step."

If I can't get to the construction site first, the loan pressure alone will severely slow down my cultivation efficiency!

"Zhang Yu!!! Do you want to compete in Immortal Dao Potential?"

"Then let's go."

The teacher will definitely take me to the construction site.

Thinking of this, a ruthless glint flashed across Li Xiao's face, and he had already activated the collateral function on the Lending Platform!

Several days later, Li Xiao opened the Rankings again, which was updated at midnight!

9th place, Li Xiao, 308 points

8th place, Zhang Yu, 309 points
