Final Exam

Inside the office.

Looking at Zhang Yu, whose hair had turned completely white, Tu Lishan couldn't help but frown. "Are you sure you're okay?"

"If someone dies suddenly during work and the project is delayed, you'll have to pay compensation."

Zhang Yu's hair had turned white due to overwork and weakness. Hearing Tu Lishan's reminder, he said calmly, "It's alright, Earth Teacher. I know my own constitution very well."

"Moreover, for someone like me who's on the First Layer Student, such an opportunity is rare, so I have to seize it with all my might and give it my all, otherwise how will I get ahead?"

"I have a strong recovery ability, and I believe my body can pull through!"

Feeling the determination in Zhang Yu's eyes, Tu Lishan sighed inwardly. In his many years of coaching, he had seen far too many people who dared to fight and struggle, but Zhang Yu's attitude... made him feel a sense of disregard for life and death!

At that moment, he made a judgment about Zhang Yu before him. "The unwavering determination of this young man in his pursuit of the Dao is something I have rarely seen in my life!"

"If this were in ancient times, hundreds of years ago... he would probably be dead by now!"

"That is, now that the Immortal Dao immortality is flourishing..."

"He will either be ruined and never be able to escape poverty, or he will rise through the ranks, pursuing Graduate School and Doctorate, climbing the ladder step by step!"

"Given this child's temperament, there are only these two possible outcomes; there is absolutely no third possibility!"

But Tu Lishan understood that the latter outcome was too slim, while the former outcome was the more probable possibility, which would make it difficult for the Civil Engineering Department to recoup its investment in Zhang Yu!

Just then, Director Gao's information appeared in Tu Lishan's Eye Remains!

Director Gao: "Don't stop him, but set a limit for him—a maximum of 10 servings a day!"

Tu Lishan understood that these medicines were simply exploiting cultivators, not creating something from nothing to enhance their foundation. If one consumed more than 10 doses a day, it would only shorten one's lifespan and have no other medicinal effect, a complete waste of Spirit Coin!

Main Force Mountain: "But what if Zhang Yu dies..."

Director Gao: "We are the Civil Engineering Department of Ten Thousand Laws University, not those ordinary universities and Junior College that only think about breaking even!"

"Since he's so confident, what's wrong with giving him a chance to fight back?"

Hearing Director Gao's words, Tu Lishan thought to himself, "The director is truly magnanimous, willing to risk losses to let the students fight to the death!"

Tukayama looked at Zhang Yu and said, "Then you just need to know your limits!"

"Remember, if you sense anything is wrong, stop immediately!"

So, in the last two weeks at the construction site, Zhang Yu began working overtime like crazy every day, taking medication, and practicing meditation!

Switch to the Civil Engineering Sacred Body before and after taking medicine, switch to the University Sacred Body when practicing cultivation Cultivation Method, and choose the appropriate Chain Law Diagram set depending on the workload...

Especially with the blessing of the Earth Civil Engineering Sacred Body, the weaker his body was, the more recklessly he could consume medicine and circulate the Civil Engineering Department Cultivation Method, resulting in a growth rate far exceeding that of the past!

In addition to that, there's also the daily task of refining No. 20 Secret Steel!

In the eyes of many students and teachers, Zhang Yu was pushing himself to the limit and was about to give up!

Che Yufei was shocked. "Every time this guy thinks he's about to collapse, he manages to keep going. Every time he thinks he's about to die, he manages to hold on for another day... But if this continues, he'll eventually give in. Just how much money does he owe?"

Tu Lishan thought to himself, "Such a steadfast heart for cultivation—if he were a wealthy man, his future would be limitless! What a pity! Even if he overcomes this hurdle, his lifespan will be significantly shortened! Not to mention, he's so weak now; I wonder what score he'll get on his Final Exam!"

Gongshu Hui had also heard some news about Zhang Yu, and had even witnessed Zhang Yu's weak state several times!

He also sighed slightly in his heart, "It seems... I made a mistake before? Zhang Yu is just an ordinary poor person on the first level?"

"How could someone who could deal with Wang Yin before be an ordinary poor person? Could it be that Zhang Yu was abandoned because of the pressure from Nether University, and that's why he's now poor?"

Shaking his head, Gongshu Jin understood the intricacies of the situation; how could an outsider like him possibly guess?

Seeing Zhang Yu risking his life like this made Gongshu Jin feel the helplessness of the poor once again!

"Poverty is terrifying. They risk their lives in such low-value jobs, yet they still can't catch up with us!"

Gongshu Jin thought to himself, "Luckily, I'm a rich man!"

The matter of Zhang Yu only flashed through Gongshu Jin's mind; his real goal was to surpass Ji Yuan Shu in the Final Exam!

End of February!

Before they knew it, the project was coming to an end, which also marked the end of Zhang Yu's first semester of university!

The group packed their luggage, boarded the Flying Boat, and embarked on their journey home!

"Including the three months I spent at the Outdoor Construction Site, I've been on the Second Layer for eight months now!"

Zhang Yu, with his white hair, stood at the bow of the ship, looking down at the increasingly smaller Dharma Skeleton Factory, and reflecting on the achievements he had made here over the past three months!

Not only did his Civil Engineering Sacred Body reach its ultimate form, but the Qi Sea Spiritual Root in his dantian also achieved a 100% Spirit Root Fusion under the nourishment of the Azure Spirit Gu Worm, further enhancing his mana circulation, mobilization, and collection of Spiritual Energy!

With the daily ingestion of various potent drugs, the Breath Circulation of Spirit Stone, and the digestion of high-quality magical power within the Mystic Creation Relic!

Zhang Yu has also made great progress in his magical abilities!

His mana has now reached 546.8, and the Magical Power Quality has reached 157%!

Regarding Dao Heart, it has been slower due to the high cost of internet access at the construction site over the past three months, resulting in a lack of Spirit Realm Service. It has now reached level 13 (70.8%).

With the practice of various Body Refining Cultivation Method and the enhancement of medicinal effects, Zhang Yu Yu's Physical Strength was pushed to level 14.39!

With just these basic data increases, Zhang Yu's strength has improved by leaps and bounds, and his savings have also increased to 22 Spirit Coin through these three months of work!

But these weren't his biggest gains!

At this moment, all 206 bones in his body have been refined into No. 20 Spirit Law Secret Steel, giving him a skeleton that is virtually indestructible and incredibly strong for a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator!

Back in the cabin of the Flying Boat, Zhang Yu knew that he probably wouldn't have such a good buffet opportunity again anytime soon.

"Even if there's another opportunity like this, there's no need to eat like this!"

Zhang Yu could feel that the medicine was starting to take its toll, and its effectiveness was decreasing over the next few days!

His body was like a sugarcane that had been squeezed repeatedly, and not a single drop of juice could be extracted from it!

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "The next medicine I take... will probably be one that replenishes my nutrition and vital energy, strengthening my foundation!"

He switched to the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo to enhance his self-healing ability, and at the same time began to heal his injuries by activating his body!

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "The boost from the Martial Dao Sacred Embryo... has weakened a bit more."

While treating his injuries, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "After returning, my next goal in cultivating my Cultivation Method should be to collect the Chain Law Diagram Set of the Meridianless Flow!"

Because he had been working on the construction site for a while, he lacked the time and environment to focus on practicing Breath Circulation Cultivation Method. As a result, after Zhang Yu finished practicing the Civil Engineering Sacred Body, he didn't have the opportunity to promote the Qi Vein Everflow!

"Besides the Qi Vein Everflow, there's the need to further upgrade Yu Xinghan's Dao Seed, Le Mulan's Deep Cold Magic Vein, and my Elder Sister's Taiqing Talismans..."

A series of future cultivation plans flashed through Zhang Yu's mind, but finally, his eyes flashed. "But before that, I still need to finish my Final Exam!"

Zhang Yu clenched his fist, feeling the surging power within him and his unbreakable bones. He thought to himself, "I wonder what level I can reach now!"

Inside a dormitory on the 125th Layer of Ten Thousand Laws University City!

Zhang Yu glanced at the empty room, knowing that everyone was busy with their own things and hadn't returned yet!

After sending everyone a message that he had arrived home safely, Zhang Yu immediately went to return the rented Mystic Creation Relic and Bilingjin Insect!

Then, on his way back, he looked at the Final Exam schedule!

Unlike high school Final Exam, at Ten Thousand Laws University, you only need to apply for the Final Exam yourself, and then complete them at the designated time and place!

The students in the Foundation Establishment Class had already finished their Final Exam, except for Gongshu Jin and Zhang Yu, who had not yet finished their Final Exam due to their trip to the Outdoor Construction Site!

Zhang Yu checked his class ranking and discovered that because he didn't have the bonus points from the Final Exam, he had fallen to the very bottom, ranking 28th!

"There are only 28 students in the Foundation Establishment Class. It would look too bad to go out with that. We should apply for the Final Exam as soon as possible!"

The exam application process flashed before Zhang Yu's Eye Remains, and he had secured a testing center for a week later!

For the next week, Zhang Yu spent his days studying, cultivating, healing his body, and replenishing his nutrition and vital energy!

Seven days have passed in the blink of an eye. Zhang Yu, whose body has recovered to its peak condition, strode towards the agreed examination room!

Zhang Yu and Gongshu Jin weren't the only ones concerned about the Final Exam!

Many students in the Foundation Establishment Class are also paying attention to Gongshu Jin's performance!

Ying Xin refreshed the class rankings and thought to herself, "I wonder how much Gongshu Jin has improved this time? Will he be able to challenge Ji Yuan Shu?"

Meanwhile, Tu Lishan, as the teacher, was observing Gongshu Jin's exam performance through the Spirit Realm Network!

First came several Professional Course Exam. Gongshu Jin, relying on the professional skills he had honed on the construction site over the past three months, completed all the exams almost flawlessly!

Next comes the Dao Heart Exam!

Although he was at Outdoor Construction Site, Gongshu Jin was able to temper his Dao Heart by spending money every day to enjoy the Spirit Realm Service!

Suddenly, Tsuchikayama discovers that Zhang Xi is also taking his Final Exam!

Using his teacher privileges, he curiously checked Zhang Yu's exam results!

"Oh? Your professional courses are similar to Gongshu Jin's, almost all full marks? It seems these past three months haven't been a waste of time!"

"His Dao Heart is still lacking. After all, he hasn't used the Spirit Realm Service much, so it's normal that he can't compare to Gongshu Jin!"

"His magical power isn't much less than Gongshu Jin's?" Tu Lishan nodded slightly and said, "It seems that a lot of his potential has indeed been squeezed out!"

"Is the Body Refinement Exam next? Are the two of you assigned to the same exam room?"

Thinking of Zhang Yu's weakened state when he left the construction site, Tu Lishan shook his head slightly. "Although his potential was repeatedly stimulated and he didn't die on the construction site, the damage to his body was too great. Not to mention how much lifespan he lost, his current weakness will probably take a lot of time and Spirit Coin to recover!"

"Although Zhang Yu's physique is somewhat unique, it's not as powerful as he claims. Relying solely on that to defeat a wealthy person like Gongshu Jin is far from enough!"

Looking at the upcoming Body Refinement Exam, Tu Lishan thought to himself, "The difference in our Body Tempering scores will probably be the biggest one!"
