Project Selection

Inside the restaurant, the sound of Zhang Yu eating rice echoed throughout the entire space.

Accompanied by rumbling sounds from his stomach, a thunderous roar continuously emanated from Zhang Yu's belly.

He grabbed the rice bowl, tilted his head back, opened his mouth, and gulped down a whole bowl of rice, which visibly poured into his stomach from his bulging throat and chest.

Then Zhang Yu opened his mouth and spat out streams of Martial Dao Gang Qi, like a cloud of mist carrying a large portion of a Dragon Liver Phoenix Gall into his mouth.

With a series of loud thuds, Zhang Yu gritted his teeth, and chunks of Dragon Liver Phoenix Gall and blood exploded in his mouth. The rich aroma of meat, mixed with strange oils, lingered on his tongue, making Zhang Yu's eyebrows involuntarily lift!

With just a bite of rice and a bite of meat, Zhang Yu felt the food he ate transform into streams of vital energy, circulating wildly within his body and being absorbed frantically by his muscles, organs, bones, and so on!

Gongshu Jin, standing to the side, thought to himself, "This guy... has such a strong digestive ability?"

"But to immediately ask for three bowls of Heaven Essence Rice and three Dragon Liver Phoenix Gall... that's far too much. Isn't he afraid of bursting from overeating?"

At the same time, everyone else in the restaurant looked at Zhang Yu, who was eating meat and rice with great relish, with amusement!

Amidst the Eye Remains, everyone started gossiping amongst themselves, "Heh heh, three more bowls of rice and three plates of meat? Adding to what he ordered before, that makes five bowls of Heaven Essence Rice and three Dragon Liver Phoenix Gall... Isn't that going too far? Let's see how he gets out of this!"

Could it be that he's just holding it in and planning to throw it up when he gets back?

"Heaven Essence Rice is made from highly compressed food essence. If it's not digested in time after being eaten, it will only clump together, and then the only way to get it out is to cut open the stomach!"

At the same time, Ye Xingrui looked at Mo Shang Jin beside him and asked, "Your junior is quite interesting. How much do you think he can eat?"

Mo Shang Jin felt helpless. He didn't know Zhang Yu at all; he had only brought him over as a newcomer to his faction to introduce him to people!

Little did he know that the other party would be so "high-profile" upon arrival, boasting on the spot and displaying his enormous appetite. However, as someone from the same faction, Mo Shangnu didn't intend to undermine him, casually saying, "My junior brother here has a special physique, but this is the first time I've seen him eat this much!"

Then everyone watched as Zhang Yu devoured the food and meat with gusto!

When Zhang Yu ate three bowls of rice and a plate of meat, the people around him were already slightly surprised. When Zhang Yu ate four bowls of rice and two plates of meat, even Mo Shang, Ye Xingli, and Cang Lanyu showed surprise in their eyes. Some students around them even started recording with their Dharma Skeleton!

When Zhang Yu ate a full five bowls of rice and three plates of meat, he felt as if his body had turned into a super pressure cooker, with incredibly rich food essence flowing back and forth within him!

His entire body was like a field submerged by a flood, unable to absorb the powerful surges of vital energy.

Zhang Yu could feel that the meal he ate today replenished his body more than the accumulation of the past month. Not only was his physical deficiency directly replenished, but there was also a large surplus flowing in his body, which he would slowly absorb in the days to come!

Patting his stomach, Zhang Yu said contentedly, "That feels so good! I haven't eaten this much in ages!"

At the same time, he was slightly surprised. "This Dragon Liver Phoenix Gall, although it tastes delicious, doesn't seem to have anything special about it? Could it be that it's made from other meats instead?"

Fu Ji said, "The Dragon Liver Phoenix Gall at the buffet are definitely farmed. They're probably fast-grown meat Dragon Meat and phoenixes, without intelligence or cultivation. Eating them is just a great way to replenish your Qi and Blood."

"What else could be so special about it?"

At the same time, Gongshu Jin stared wide-eyed at the empty plate in front of Zhang Yu. The shock in his heart was even greater than when he saw Zhang Yu's performance in the Gravity Simulation Room last time. He thought, "I can probably only eat one bowl of this Heaven Essence Rice and one Dragon Liver Phoenix Gall."

"Zhang Yu actually has such a large appetite?"

"Could it be that he eats a lot every day? Or has he practiced Cultivation Method to enhance his digestion? Or is it just due to his constitution?"

"As expected of my friend!"

Gongshu Jin knew that while training was important for digesting food, innate factors also had a significant impact!

Some people are just born with a larger appetite!

At this moment, Gongshu Jin also realized that he still knew too little about Zhang Yu!

On the other side, Ye Xingli looked at Zhang Yu with admiration in her eyes and said, "Your appetite is that of a rich person!"

With such an appetite in your freshman year, your future ranking will definitely be good, and you're sure to become rich!

"Old Mo, your Civil Engineering Department has truly produced a Heavenly Prodigy!"

Mo Shang Jin smiled slightly and said, "If it weren't for the opportunity you provided, Xing Li, I wouldn't have known that Junior Zhang had such a vast knowledge!"

Zhang Yu patted his stomach and said, "Mo Xuechang is right. I don't usually have the chance to eat this much. I have to thank you, Senior Senior, for this. I just hope that you can practice the Treasure City Technique every month from now on!"

Ye Xingli chuckled and said, "It's just some food. Add me as a friend, and I'll invite you next time I host a banquet!"

Then she sighed, "But refining treasures isn't that easy. The next time will probably be a year or two later!"

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Sure enough, even a little bit of food that these rich people casually spill out of their mouths can feed a poor guy like me to my heart's content!"

The following hour was a pleasant one, with guests and hosts toasting each other. Zhang Yu became the target of many students' approach. In addition to Mo Shang Jin, Ye Xingli, and Cang Lanyu, he was added as a friend by many others and pulled into many groups!

A 100-square-meter suite on the 450th Floor!

Ji Yuan Shu's eyes flickered, and he saw a notification from the Fortune Monitoring pop up in his Eye Remains. Just now, the Luck had changed, and Zhang Yu's chances of winning had actually increased slightly!

Ji Yuan Shu investigated the source of this Luck and came across a video of a student eating!

The video had no plot or script; it was just a video of Zhang Yu eating meat continuously. It got a lot of views. Ji Yuan Shu knew that if he hadn't been notified by the Fortune Monitoring, he probably wouldn't have seen it!

"Is your appetite amazing?"

"But in the end, it's just a tiny bit more chance!"

On the way back, Zhang Yu felt a surge of energy coursing through his body. He thought that if he continued taking medication and working overtime for three months, he probably wouldn't need a break!

"Then it's time to go to a construction site for some spiritual practice!"

As Zhang Yu browsed through the available options, he hesitated for a moment!

"Joyous Union University's amusement park is indeed nice, but the attractions are still a long way from starting!"

"Joyous Union Amusement Park is also nice, but it's a bit far away, so we'll miss Yu Xinghan and Le Mulan's advancement!"

"Joyous Union University Amusement Park is also a good option, but I'm worried about the high cost of living there..."

Fu Ji couldn't help but say, "You little brat... all you want to do is go to the amusement park, right? Don't you even think about why it's listed as a high-risk attraction? Is it even safe for you to go?"

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Alas, it's a pity I don't have the Blissful Monster Physique!"

After hesitating for a while, Zhang Yu decided to ask his Elder Sister for advice regarding the project selection!

A moment later, Zhang Pianpian replied: Let's go to the 10th Underground Floor to repair the tomb!

Zhang Pianpian said, "The Cemetery is located in the Spirit Vein node, containing a huge amount of Spiritual Energy Spiritual Energy. The spiritual energy is so rich that it is almost tangible. It is very suitable for you to Breathing Spiritual Opportunity, improve the Magical Power Quality, and nourish your physical body. Therefore, when Benpeiyuan saw the Cemetery project, Zhang Yu felt quite strange!"

"Ten Thousand Laws University City is so expensive, how can there be empty space to build tombs?"

In response to Zhang Yu's question, Zhang Pianpian explained, "Cemetery are for the poor, after all, only the poor lose ownership of their physical bodies after death!"

Zhang Pianpian: These bodies were sent into the tomb and used as Breathing Corpse Component.

Zhang Pianpian: Every moment, a huge amount of low-quality mana is being consumed in the University City. A large part of this mana is produced by the cluster of Breathing Corpse Component in the Cemetery.

Upon hearing this, a sudden realization dawned on Zhang Yu's mind. No wonder the price of low-quality mana was incredibly cheap when he first went on the Magical Power Treasure Platform!

It turns out that every moment, beneath the University City, numerous Corpse Parts are circulating Breathing Spiritual Opportunity and generating magical power!

Zhang Yu then asked, "When a poor person dies, their body is sent to Cemetery to become Corpse Parts. Does that mean that when a rich person dies, their body isn't sent to Cemetery?"

Zhang Pianpian: The rich die twice.

Zhang Pianpian: The first death is the death of the physical body, but as long as you have money, your soul can be transferred to the Spirit Realm, and your physical body will still belong to you. You will not lose ownership, so naturally you will not be sent to the Cemetery!

Zhang Pianpian: The second death was the death of having exhausted all her wealth!

Zhang Pianpian: The longer a soul lives, the higher the cost of maintaining it in the Spirit Realm becomes. Once the money is used up, it will truly die!

Zhang Yu: There will still be some in the Cemetery!

But the next moment, Zhang Yu realized that by the time the rich man's body was sent to the Cemetery, the rich man had become a poor man!

"So the Cemetery only contains the corpses of the poor."

Zhang Yu shook his head with a sigh, and after reviewing the Cemetery project information one last time, he felt that the project was indeed very suitable for him!

In particular, he also needs to practice Breathing Technique to complete the Qi Vein Everflow Set!

"Moreover, this way they can continue to stay in the University City and continue to nurture the Dao Seed within Yu Xinghan and Le Mulan."

The project will officially begin in two weeks, which is a good time!

After reviewing the requirements for the Cemetery project, I discovered that the top ten students in the Foundation Establishment Class were eligible to apply!

Zhang Yu thought he might as well call Yu Xing Sai over as well. Feeling the profound foundation, intense essence and spirit within his body, Zhang Yu began to take Lifespan-Reducing Medicine to cultivate again for the next two weeks!

This time, however, he used his own Spirit Coin to take the medicine. Along with the Essence Splitting Blood Burst Pill, Life Eroding Heaven Snatching Powder, Hundred Tribulations Heart Devouring Gu, and Lifespan Draining Tianji Powder, Zhang Yu swallowed them one by one, and that familiar feeling surged into his heart again!

"That's awesome. This is what cultivation should be like." Adding in other daily expenses and various services... his Spirit Coin dwindled again, quickly dropping below 7 Spirit Market!

On this day, with the completion of the 666th Layer, Zhang Yu arrived at the new construction site on the 667th Layer of the University City. He sat cross-legged, with streaks of white Gang Qi appearing on his body, expanding and contracting with his breath!

While he was practicing the Breathing Technique, he was also releasing streams of Formless Cloud Gang that crossed several meters, creating spiraling energies that penetrated the Rebar Mesh in front of him!

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "The efficiency is a bit slow, but if I can work using my Gang Qi like this, I can focus more on cultivating my Breathing Technique!"

The subsequent training will primarily focus on the Breathing Technique!

Days passed, and as Zhang Yu pushed the ' Black Qi Outer Circulation Breathing Technique ' to Level 20, the day arrived for the Cemetery construction to begin!
