Zhang Yu didn't feel like he was risking his life. After all, with the Body Activation brought about by the Remnant Ox Abandoning Self Heart Sutra, the performance of the Battle Demon Lifefall Skill was still within his tolerance range.

Moreover, he had just found a Longevity Pill a few days ago and taken it, which increased his lifespan by a year, so it wouldn't matter if some of it was burned.

Fu Ji often told him that lifespan is something that doesn't earn interest if you keep it, so you might as well burn it while it still has some benefit, and you can always earn it back in the future.

At this moment, Zhang Yu not only did not suffer any loss of lifespan, but with the violent explosion of his physical body and Gang Qi, the residual medicinal power in his body was also activated. In the past few days, he had consumed a lot of semi-finished medicines in the pharmaceutical factory. Some of these medicines took effect on the spot, while others turned into streams of medicinal power that settled deep in his body and were slowly absorbed by him!

But at this moment, as Zhang Yu's Qi and Blood and energy surged violently throughout his body, the medicinal power was aroused and absorbed at an accelerated pace, allowing Zhang Yu's Physical Strength to achieve another breakthrough!

Physical Strength: 0.01.

In Ying Xin's eyes, Zhang Yu's speed increased slightly again, and in the blink of an eye, he had pulled several car lengths ahead of her again!

At that moment, Ying Xin suddenly remembered what her father had said!

Father: "Ying Xin, don't think about fighting tooth and nail against someone from the first floor!"

Ying Xin remembers being very Qi Ingestion at the time, saying that she was not afraid of death and would not be afraid of anyone if she really wanted to fight to the death!

Father: Are you as poor as those people in your social class? Do you have as much debt as they do? Do you have the same kind of pressure they face?

Father: No, your life is more valuable than theirs. It's not worth it for you to fight them to the death, so you don't have the guts to fight them. But if you really wanted to fight to the death, that would be useful. What's the point of money then? Just spend it!

Thinking of this, Ying Xin's gaze sharpened, and a Talisman Book appeared in her mind!

"Four-Direction Gale, heed my command! Move this!"

In an instant, as Ying Xin activated the talisman, beams of divine Divine Light surged forth, creating gusts of wind that helped her lift the construction debris and carry it downwards!

But as soon as Ying Xin overtook Zhang Yu, she noticed that the opponent's figure had expanded again and his speed was increasing rapidly!

"Still want to fight?" Ying Xin sneered inwardly, "Then don't blame me for making you completely despair!"

While Zhang Yu and Ying Xin were chasing each other, Tu Lishan on the 666th Layer was observing their competition through the surveillance cameras along the way!

"Well, although Ying Xin isn't willing to work her as hard as she can, it's good that she's willing to spend money. As long as she's willing to pay for her own work and subsidize projects, who can say she isn't a prodigy in the Civil Engineering Department Heavenly Prodigy?"

But soon seeing Zhang Yu accelerate again, Tu Lishan's eyes revealed admiration. "Well done! One throws his life away, the other throws money away. They truly deserve to be the Heavenly Prodigy of our Civil Engineering Department, the talents of our Civil Engineering Department!"

Zhang Yu crashed to the ground with a thud. As he reached the first basement level, his muscles cushioned the impact, and he pulled the flying building materials towards the waste treatment plant!

At this moment, he had already activated the explosive state of the Boundless Spring Autumn Zen, and the efficiency of the Battle Demon Lifefall Skill had also begun to slightly consume his lifespan!

"Thank goodness I ate a Longevity Pill!"

"This year of lifespan won't earn interest, but cashing it out wouldn't be a problem!"

Meanwhile, on the other side, Ying Xin stirred up a gust of wind, standing alongside Zhang Yu!

The two people, charging forward at breakneck speed, were like two Giant Dragon running side by side, one shrouded in mist and clouds, the other radiating golden light, accelerating with the roar of the atmosphere. Accelerating, accelerating again.

After the first wave of building materials was transported, the II crew shot out again without stopping, carrying long shockwaves, and rushed towards the 666th Layer once more!

Now freed from the burden of building materials, Zhang Yu's speed increased dramatically, leaving long trails of air in his wake as he moved further and further away from Ying Xin!

Watching this scene, Ying Xin cursed inwardly, "Five hours? I bet you're willing to risk your lifespan for that."

Back and forth, up and down again and again, Ying Xin watched as Zhang Yu charged and exploded without stopping, showing no sign of stopping!

Meanwhile, Ying Xin's spending of Spirit Coin kept rising as she read the book, and she finally had to grit her teeth and stop Fu Fan!

This caused Ying Xin to fall further and further behind Zhang Yu!

The 5-hour race is almost over!

After five hours of relentless pursuit, Ying Xin was radiating waves of heat from head to toe, her Human Skin was flushed red and her muscles felt like they were melting.

With each step I took, I felt my muscles go weak; with each breath, I felt a sharp pain in my chest!

At this moment, she was like a cannon barrel that had been operating under continuous overload, and the metal fatigue had reached its limit!

When she looked up, she saw Zhang Yu, his body completely red and emitting puffs of white steam, letting out a whoosh as he continued his charge toward the garbage disposal site!

Ying Xin couldn't help but show a hint of surprise. "This guy!!! Does he still have any strength left after fighting this hard?"

"How much of his lifespan did he actually consume?"

"No! Impossible! This isn't just about risking one's lifespan!"

A hint of disbelief flashed in Ying Xin's eyes. "Could this guy be stronger than me already?"

Thinking of this, she clenched her fists in resentment. "How could this be? He's been working himself to the bone at the construction site every day, and he's spent far less money than I have!"

At the same time, Tu Lishan slowly walked to Ying Xin's side and comforted her, "Still don't understand why you lost?"

"I could tell from Zhang Yu's work on the 666th Layer construction site every day that he was also practicing various Body Refining Cultivation Method!"

"This is because he pushed himself to an even higher intensity while his body was being worn down by work. You could say that every bit of his strength and every bit of his cultivation was earned at the cost of his life!"

"Ying Xin, can you feel the difference between the body you've painstakingly trained in the Training Room and the body Zhang Yu honed on the construction site?"

"For you, this is just studying, just an opportunity! But for him, it's work, it's life, it's where his future lies!"

Looking at Ying Xin, who was standing silently with her head down, Tu Lishan thought to himself, "If you were rich enough to throw money around more than he does every day, you could suppress him, just like Gongshu Jin and Ji Yuan Shu!"

"But you still don't have enough money!"

Just then, Li Xiao and Yu Xinghan arrived!

Ying Xin frowned slightly; she felt that Yu Xinghan had been keeping her under his thumb for a while!

Yu Xinghan thought to herself, "This video!!! I'll edit it when I get back, add some blurring, and then upload it to see how it goes. I wonder if a video of the Civil Engineering Department's most beautiful girl will get any views? I can't exactly film my daily life on the Civil Engineering construction site, can I? Who would watch that?"

Meanwhile, Li Xiao thought that Ying Xin had already won the match, after all, in his opinion, Ying Xin's strength was definitely above Zhang Yu's!

He comforted her, saying, "Ying Xin, we're all classmates, don't ruin our relationship. Give me some face, you two can talk it over later!"

Ying Xin glared at him coldly. "What face do you have?"

As Ying Xin turned and left without looking back, an awkward expression appeared on Li Xiao's face!

Just then, the class Rankings finally came up for an update!

When Ying Xin saw that Zhang Yu's ranking had changed from 4th to 3rd, and her own ranking had changed from 3rd to 4th, a look of understanding appeared on her face!

"As expected!" Ying Xin a bitter smile, muttering to herself, "He's already above me; I'm the weaker one in this battle!"

Li Xiao also noticed the changes in the rankings above Zhang Yu and Ying Xin, and then recalled Ying Xin's performance just now!

Li Xiao stared at Zhang Yu walking towards him, and asked in surprise, "You! You actually defeated Ying Xin?"

Zhang Yu exhaled a breath of hot white air; "Hmm? I think so!"

He watched Ying Xin's retreating figure, who was leaning on a limp, and reminded her, "Don't forget to transfer the money!"

Tu Lishan looked at Zhang Yu and smiled, "Zhang Yu, you're very good! But you still need to rest properly when you need to. You'll be busy when the Wilderness Project starts next month!"

After Tu Lishan left, Li Xu couldn't help but ask, "Li you!! How exactly do you cultivate?"

Zhang Yu glanced at him and casually said, "You can't learn my methods!"

"If you want to learn, you can learn from Wang Xing Han!"

"After saying that, Zhang Yu turned and left. After flashing several times, he shot into the sky like an arrow and rushed all the way to the 666th Layer along the Magnetic Channel!"

Li Xiao quickly sent a message asking: Where are you going?

Zhang Yu: Go back to work overtime!

Li Xiao exclaimed in shock, "We still have to work overtime?"

Yu Xinghan shrugged and said, "That's just how this guy is, he never stops. I've never seen him rest! I suspect he's working overtime on his own, not because he wants to slack off, but because he wants to reward himself after winning a match!"

Li Xiao was at a loss for words. Wasn't working overtime a painful thing?

Could it be that the pain he had to grit his teeth and endure silently was a kind of pleasure for Zhang Yu? Is the difference between people really that great?

I really can't learn that other person's cultivation method!

Li Xiao remembered what Zhang Yu had mentioned about Yu Xinghan and asked, "What are you planning to do next?"

Yu Xinghan walked towards the Magnetic Channel and casually said upon hearing this, "Massage!"

Ten Thousand Laws University City has 666th Layer!

Not long after Zhang Yu started working, she received a transfer of 0.121 Spirit Coin from Ying Xin, bringing her balance to 12.50!

Looking at the numbers in his balance, Zhang Yu smiled with satisfaction, "Not bad, not bad!"

"Now we can invest even more money to further improve their grades!"

"I can add a few more Dao Arts services!" Zhang Yu calculated how to spend the Spirit Coin in his account balance!

Just then, Zhang Yu received another message from Tu Lishan!

Tu Lishan: Zhang Yu, Director Gao is very satisfied with your performance today!

Tu Lishan: He knows you're short on money, so he made a special arrangement for you. He'll have you come with me tomorrow to meet a professor in the Finance Department so he can help you apply for a low-interest student loan!

Zhang Yu: Thank you, Earth Teacher. Please also thank Director Gao for me!

Tu Lishan: It's only right for teachers to help their students! You should repay Director Gao's kindness by doing your best in next month's field project! This is a great time for Civil Engineering engineering students to shine, and as long as you're willing to work hard, you'll have plenty of opportunities!

Zhang Yu asked: What exactly is the purpose of this field project?

Tu Lishan didn't answer him, but instead asked another question: What do you know about the University War?
