Hearing what Fu Ji said, Zhang Yu nodded, thinking to himself, "This place is good; I can't sense any cameras."

What do you think, Fu Ji?

Fu Ji sensed it for a moment, then said, "This will do."

So Fu Ji was transformed back into a Rag Doll, and placed on a cement altar as a symbol of the Evil God.

Then Zhang Yu placed one of his Time Remnant Demon Eye, as a medium for the communication between humans and gods, into Fu Ji's arms.

As Fu Ji made a series of remote taps, a mysterious incantation emanated from her!

The next moment!

An invisible Evil God Power passed through the Time Remnant Demon Eye and connected to the Spirit Realm Network!

Fu Ji said, "Alas, the conditions are limited, the offerings are insufficient, and the scale is not large. The Ritual I've prepared for you today will only have a mediocre effect!"

"It's like Surveillance Ritual; you can only control one camera within a 10-meter radius at most!"

"The upcoming Anti-Surveillance Ritual should be able to temporarily block all cameras within a 15-meter radius!"

As the Ritual concluded, Zhang Yu felt the newly generated Ritual Power within him and asked, "What about your own network? Is it complete too?"

Fu Ji chuckled and said, "The Roaming Ritual is complete. I can now share the Spirit Realm Network through your Eye Remains!"

At this moment, in the eyes of this Evil God, the world was no longer as monotonous as before. She could now see various Spirit Realm Projection and even browse the internet!

Zhang Yu quickly tested the power of the Surveillance Ritual!

He first used Detection Ritual to sense a camera, and then, with the activation of a Surveillance Ritual, the monitoring screen appeared in Zhang Yu's eyes!

With a thought, the camera spun around, taking in everything around it. Experiencing the effects of the Surveillance Ritual, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "The power of this Surveillance Ritual!! It might be useful on the construction site in the future!"

"Could you help me scavenge some unwanted ingredients?"

"But having both my own perspective and the surveillance camera's perspective at the same time feels very strange!! My body movements have become sluggish, not as agile as usual!"

"Looks like I need some practice!"

After completing the Ritual, Zhang Yu went to another location and continued practicing the Battle Demon Lifefall Skill.

So over the next few days, in addition to attending classes and practicing his Cultivation Method, Zhang Yu would also occasionally use the power of the Surveillance Ritual to practice the feeling of using his own perspective and the monitoring perspective simultaneously!

That day, Zhang Yu had just returned to his dormitory and was taking his Pooled Medicine while controlling the security cameras on the street outside, watching the crowds passing by in the dormitory area!

Just then, Le Mulan appeared on the surveillance screen!

Besides Le Linlan, Zhang Yu also noticed a young man accompanying her!

Xuan Ge walked beside Le Mulan, his gaze sweeping across the 125th Layer.

Looking at the environment, he thought to himself, "As expected, after coming up from the first floor, Le Mulan's financial situation is rather poor, so she can only stay here temporarily!"

"She said she's still sharing an apartment?"

"In that case, if I show even more sincerity, I should be able to get the price for Dual Cultivation with her even lower!"

"Or, I could let her stay in my dorm to offset the cost of Dual Cultivation!"

Xuan Ge was calculating the price in his mind, but said aloud, "Le, the dormitory environment on the 125th Layer is still a bit lacking, and the abundance of Spiritual Energy is far inferior to the Upper Dorm. Have you thought about changing to another room?"

Le Mulan said calmly, "The conditions here may be so-so, but my roommates are all very nice people, and being with them has been very helpful to my studies!"

Xuan Ge chuckled inwardly upon hearing this, thinking to himself, "What help could sharing an apartment on the 125th Layer possibly be to my studies? They're probably all poor wretches from the Layer 1!"

Just then, Le Mulan said, "I'm almost there, Xuan! If you have something to do, you can go ahead. Actually, you didn't need to come with me!"

Xuan Ge laughed and said, "I'm going that way anyway, and besides, I said I wanted to be friends with you, so can't we chat a bit since we're going the same way?"

"Now that we're in the dorm, won't you invite me in for a bit?"

Just then, the dormitory door opened, and Yu Xinghan, who had just finished eating the cement-mixed medicine, came out!

He looked at Le Mulan and said, "The medicine has arrived. Zhang Yu and I took it first since you weren't here yet. Don't forget to eat your share when you go in!"

Because the four of them returned to the dormitory at different times, they often discussed it online and then ordered the medicine!

After Yu Xinghan finished speaking with Le Mulan, she looked at Xuan Ge and asked, "Your classmates?"

Xuan Ge was slightly taken aback the moment he saw Yu Xinghan!

He stared at the Foundation Establishment Class ranking above the other person's head, and exclaimed in surprise, "Foundation Establishment Class?"

Looking at the ranking above the other person's head, Xuan Ge felt as if a pressure was coming towards him, gently vibrating his body!

"Le Mulan is actually living with a Foundation Establishment Student?"

Just as Xuan Ge was feeling surprised, Zhang Yu also came out, intending to go out and Body Tempering!

Seeing Zhang Yu Yu's ranking of 8th in the Foundation Establishment Class, Xuan Ge seemed to feel the pressure in the air growing heavier, forcing him to take a step back!

At that moment, Xuan Ge thought to himself, "As expected of the eighth-ranked Foundation Establishment Class, just seeing his ranking gives me such pressure."

His relaxed smile turned into a stiff one, and he said cautiously, "I'm Le Mulan's classmate, my name is Xuan Ge, hello both of you seniors!"

Just then, another graceful figure stepped past Xuan Ge and entered the dormitory. It was Zhang Pianpian, who had returned from class for dinner!

Seeing the words "49th in the Talisman Department Foundation Establishment Realm" written on Zhang Pianpian's head, Xuan Ge felt as if the air itself had frozen!

Upon entering the department's rankings and seeing three Foundation Establishment Student in a row, Xuan Ge's thoughts shifted repeatedly, ultimately leaving only one question, "Why is Le Mulan able to live with three Foundation Establishment Student?"

"Could I be mistaken? Is this woman's network and background better than I thought?"

At this moment, Xuan Ge had also changed his mind about his original idea of using money to force Le Mulan to Dual Cultivation!

If Le Mulan really has a powerful background, then I shouldn't be the one spending money to let her Dual Cultivation with me!

"It should be that she's spending money to have 'Dual Cultivation' with me in order to improve her grades!! That's more like it!"

"We almost lost money!"

Xuan Ge thought to himself, "That was close!" Then he thought, "But she doesn't seem to have that intention?"

"Don't they know the benefits of Dual Cultivation?"

"If you were focused on your studies in high school and didn't know anything about this, it's not impossible!"

"Then I'd better give her a good talking-to about the necessity of Dual Cultivation in college!"

"But..."

Thinking of the two men and two women in this small dormitory room, Xuan Ge's heart skipped a beat. "Could this be a Hehuan (a Joyous Union Study Group? Have they already formed a team for Dual Cultivation? Is that why Le Mulan isn't interested in me?"

Yes, Dual Cultivation with me is nowhere near as interesting as Dual Cultivation with Foundation Establishment Student.

Thinking about how Le Mulan received care from three Foundation Establishment Student in this small dormitory, and how they probably spent whole nights cultivating after school every day, Xuan Ge felt a deep sense of envy when he looked at Le Mulan!

"You actually managed to get matched with such a high-level game!"

Xuan Ge had always felt that he should go to Joyous Union University, but unfortunately, his elders wouldn't allow it!

Looking at Zhang Yu, he desperately wanted to shout, "Can I join?"

Just then, Zhang Yu looked at Xuan Ge, who was lost in thought, and asked in surprise, "Hey, why are you still here?"

Xuan Ge took a deep breath, but ultimately didn't dare to say what was on his mind. He could only whisper, "Senior, I'll be going now!"

"See you tomorrow, Le!"

However, at this moment, Xuan Ge was determined to find out if this place was researching Dual Cultivation! If so, he would spend any amount of money to get in!

If not, then he'll have to give Le Mulan a proper lesson on the benefits of Dual Cultivation!

Zhang Yu then looked at Le Mulan, feeling that the way she had been looking at him lately was a bit strange; "Is there something you need?"

Le Mulan quickly lowered her head and said, "No, it's nothing!"

She thought to herself, "Could Zhang Yu have found out? Impossible, I haven't even had a chance to make a move yet!"

"So, is it because of what happened last time that he's become more wary?"

Le Mulan frowned slightly. "Recently, he's been leaving early and returning late every day."

"Just eating!!!!! And talking to Bai Zhenzhen on the phone while I was in the dorm!"

"And whenever there's a meal, Yu Xinghan is always there!!"

Seeing Le Mulan's absent-minded look, Zhang Yu pursed his lips, temporarily suppressing his doubts, and went to the space below the 100th Layer to continue his Body Tempering!

Over the next few days, with Zhang Yu's daily diligent practice, he finally raised the Battle Demon Life Limit Technique to Level 20 on the day before the exam!

His basic attributes have also greatly improved: his Dao Heart has reached level 11 (87.3%), his Mana has reached 314.2, and his Physical Strength has reached level 11.29!

At the same time, Zhang Yu's understanding of the Battle Demon Longevity Technique deepened once again, and he gained a deeper understanding of how to unleash the potential of this Cultivation Method!

It has reached a level that has never been seen before, as if it has undergone years of arduous cultivation!

The original potential of the Battle Demon Lifefall Skill was becoming increasingly integrated and easier to operate in his mind!

With a low shout, Zhang Yu's muscles bulged, veins stood out, steam rose from his body, and his skin turned a deep red, as if it were about to bleed!

Zhang Yu could feel that with the activation of the Battle Demon Lifefall Skill, the mana in his body was reversed, and his Physical Strength temporarily increased by a full 1.5 levels!

At this moment, he could completely suppress his original self with just his physical strength!

However, Zhang Yu could also feel that countless muscles and tendons were being torn apart all over his body, and his internal organs were working overtime. If he exerted too much force, he would inevitably suffer a backlash, which would then lead to broken tendons and bones!

But in the next instant, Zhang Yu, whose muscles had been bulging, suddenly deflated as if he had lost air, his entire body shrinking!

Zhang Yu could also feel that the temporary increase in his Physical Strength had decreased from level 1.5 to Level 0 1.0. Then, his muscles relaxed again, and his previously dark skin gradually returned to normal!

The temporary increase in Physical Strength also changed from Level 0 to level 0.8, and then to level 0.5!

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "This is the Level 20 effect of the Battle Demon Lifefall Skill, allowing me to control the degree of my inner potential's burst! Even a minimum of Level 1 is no problem, and the highest can even break through to 1.5 level, directly achieving a double burst effect!"

As for how strong the effect of the II-level burst is, Zhang Yu hasn't tested it yet, and doesn't plan to test it for the time being!

At my current level, I can only temporarily increase my Physical Strength by about 0.8 levels, which is enough to fully withstand using the Abandoned Cow Self-Sacrifice Art"!

"And if we add the self-healing power of the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo, then temporarily increasing Physical Strength by Level 2 is basically no problem!"

"If I take medicine or use Dao Arts techniques to enhance my strength, even with a temporary increase of 1.5 level Physical Strength, there will be no loss of lifespan!"

The next moment, Zhang Yu withdrew from the Battle Demon Lifefall Skill, and all the strange phenomena on his body disappeared!

The next day, the three-month foundation course came to a complete end, and the Foundation Establishment Class faced its first exam!
