Inside the dormitory.

Le Mulan took out a bottle of black potion and said, "I brought the potion for you."

She hesitated before asking, "But are you sure you want to use it?"

Zhang Yu took the medicine, looked at the faint cloud-like light and shadow appearing within it, and said, "Don't worry, I can handle it."

Since Zhang Yu became Director Gao's Registered Disciple, he has been granted more drug exchange privileges, and a large number of Laboratory Medicine in the Medicine Academy's laboratories have been made available to him at a discount.

However, although these Laboratory Medicine have amazing effects, they tend to...

The side effects are also quite severe, so Zhang Yu has been working with Le Mulan to screen medications during this period!

After several attempts, he chose the bottle of Demonic Mimicry Aerosol in front of him!

Looking at the medicine bottle in his hand, Zhang Yu pondered, "The cultivation technique continues to operate under the state of Spirit-Flesh Unity, constantly tempering my Dao Heart!"

"My mana is constantly circulating under the Passive Breathing Technique technique; just remember to consume Spirit Stone!"

"The only Physical Strength... I'm currently focusing most of my cultivation on advancing the Martial Dao Sacred Body Cultivation Method, but these Cultivation Method are all related to combat and construction, not dedicated Body Refining Cultivation Method!"

"Although Physical Strength can be improved somewhat during this process, the rate of improvement is still too slow compared to specialized Body Refining Cultivation Method!"

In particular, Zhang Yu felt the heat within his body and thought that it would be a waste not to properly Body Tempering after eating the Yang Strengthening Meat!

"Then I've been putting up with this for nothing?"

He unscrewed the medicine bottle, opened his mouth and inhaled; a cloud of mist surged out of the bottle and, as if alive, entered his body!

Next, Zhang Yu began practicing the Boundless Spring Autumn Zen!

After the Body Tempering ended, he felt as if the Demonic Mimicry Aerosol had turned into tiny hands, pounding and twisting all over his body, constantly wearing down his flesh, while also training it!

With this exercise, the fiery energy from Zhang Yu's Yang Strengthening Meat was also stimulated, nourishing his flesh and blood!

"This is the effect of the Demonic Mimicry Aerosol. It can simulate the effects of Body Refining Cultivation Method, and even after you stop training, it can still retain some of the training effects!"

"But the downside is... once it starts, it will last for several days, potentially causing serious physical damage, or even death!"

However, Zhang Yu was confident that he could pull through with his physical strength!

What truly prevented Zhang Yu from taking this medicine for an extended period was its price!

"Even after the discount, one bottle still costs almost 0.9 Spirit Coin, that's damn expensive!"

Spirit Coin Balance: -0.9

"I need to go make some money!"

After the drug trial, Zhang Yu and Le Mulan left the dormitory together and saw Xuan Ge waiting outside!

Zhang Yu was fairly familiar with Le Mulan, his classmate!

After all, the other party had locked the door for them many times, taken out the trash many times, and repeatedly expressed their desire to live in the same dormitory with them, submitting their resumes for dormitory admission many times!

At this moment, Zhang Yu looked at the other person's chest and thought, "The Blazing Sun Magic Vein? This guy also Dao Seed?"

Zhang Yu sensed it and found that this Blazing Sun Magic Vein was the same as Le Mulan's, a Dharma Dao Seed of magical power, which also required the improvement of Magical Power Quality to be activated!

"150% Magical Power Quality?"

On the other side, Xuan Ge was being watched by Zhang Yu and was a little nervous!

Just then, Zhang Yu suddenly said, "You're Xuan Ge, right? Let me give you some pointers!"

Let Le Mulan go first, and Zhang Yu took Xuan Ge into the dormitory!

Xuan Ge walked in excitedly, his mind racing, "Is it my turn? Is it finally my turn?"

He first asked, "Would you like me to wash up first?"

Zhang Yu frowned and said, "Wash what?"

Xuan Ge was wondering why this was different from what was described in the tutorial when Zhang Yu had already placed a palm against his back!

The next moment, two streams of magical power, one cold and one hot, collided within Xuan Ge's body!

Xuan Ge felt a significant improvement in the Magical Power Quality. The intense magical power within his body seemed to be stimulated, accelerating its circulation and making his Breath Circulation much more efficient than usual!

At the same time, Zhang Yu's Eye Remains twitched as he received a communication from Zi Zhenzhen!

Bai Zhenzhen: "Yu Zi? What are you doing?"

Zhang Yu immediately turned the camera around and frankly...

Ran said, "They're preparing to sell their magical power!"

He patted Xuan Ge on the shoulder again, saying, "This is the trading partner!"

"Are you relieved now?"

Bai Zhenzhen observed Xuan Ge for a moment, and seeing that he was a man, she nodded in relief!

She knew that Zhang Yu had no talent in the art of Dual Cultivation Dual Cultivation and that the range of partners he could cultivate with was very narrow; only biological women could elicit a response from Zhang Yu!

Bai Zhenzhen sighed inwardly, "Sigh, if you had the talent for Dual Cultivation, I, as your good brother, would definitely be the first to support you! But if you only have an interest and no talent, doesn't that waste your cultivation time?"

Zhang Yu said, "A-Zhen, I told you not to worry. With my iron will, how could I not be able to hold back?"

Bai Zhenzhen said, "It's not that Mom doesn't trust you, it's just that she's afraid you'll get distracted by frivolous pursuits and neglect your studies!"

"Then keep up the good work! I'll send you some more meat in a few days!"

After hanging up the communication, Zhang Yu poured more than ten minutes of magic power into Xuan Ge!

After withdrawing his palm, Zhang Yu looked at Xuan Ge and asked, "How was it? Do you want to continue?"

Buy mana?

Xuan Ge thought to himself, "Ah? So they want to sell their magic power to me?"

Although somewhat disappointed, recalling the feeling of digesting the magical power, Xuan Ge thought, "It's similar to the cold magical power of classmate Le Mulan!"

"It will greatly benefit the Magical Power Quality and the efficiency of my Breath Circulation!"

"And judging from his tone, he seems to want to bypass the platform and trade privately, right? That should get him a better price!"

After some discussion, the two parties reached a private magic power transaction. Xuan Ge would purchase 10,000 units of magic power from Zhang Yu at a price of 1 Spirit Coin per month!

Watching Xuan Ge's departing figure, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "I wonder what kind of results this Blazing Sun Magic Vein will bring!"

Regardless of the effectiveness of the Blazing Sun Magic Vein, having an extra source of income every month is always a good thing for him!

Spirit Coin Balance +1

Within the Taiqing Realm!

Zhang Yu's multiple consciousnesses were rapidly scanning four different screens!

The screen displays four courses: Magic Treasure Dynamics, Spiritual Energy Materials and Forming Technology, Magical Power Transmission and Conduction, and True Fire Processing Technology!

As the screen scrolled rapidly, a large amount of text and graphics kept appearing in Zhang Yu's mind, which he forcibly memorized!

To improve efficiency, Zhang Yu spent 0.06 Spirit Coin today to enhance his Mind Clarity Technique for two hours. This Dao Arts allows him to Photographic Memory for two hours!

With the Mind Acceleration 20 times in the Taiqing Realm, it's equivalent to Photographic Memory for 40 hours!

After another 4% of deep thinking, it's equivalent to Zhang Yu being able to perform 160 hours of rapid memorization!

So he spent 0.96 Spirit Coin to buy online course videos and textbooks. He didn't try to understand them; he just quickly browsed through them and memorized the knowledge so he could learn and understand them later!

"This should further improve my learning efficiency!"

In order to complete the three-year course in the Artifact Crafting Department, pass the exams, and successfully Transfer Departments to another department, Zhang Yu constantly adjusted his learning methods and improved his efficiency!

However, one issue remains unresolved: the cost of purchasing textbooks and online courses!

"The textbooks and online courses for the Artifact Crafting Department are so expensive!"

"The tuition for all courses this semester combined is probably more than ten times higher than that of the Civil Engineering Department!"

"There are also material costs, laboratory usage fees..."

Zhang Yu looked at the course content on True Fire Processing Technology. In addition to the written knowledge, there were many experimental parts, which required purchasing materials and renting Artifact Forging Laboratory!

Spirit Coin Balance: -1.56

On a construction site with 667th Layer!

Zhang Yu is currently practicing the fourth Cultivation Method of the Martial Dao Sacred Body, the Earth Seeking Claw, which is Cultivation Method following the Boundless Spring Autumn Zen, the Heaven Flipping Seal, and the Purple Heaven Net Style!

He suddenly unleashed a surge of Gang Qi in his palm, and an invisible suction force emanated from it, instantly lifting more than ten tons of cargo into the air!

"Unfortunately, the Civil Engineering Department curriculum teaches too few Cultivation Method suitable for the Martial Dao Sacred Body, so I'll have to buy the remaining Cultivation Method in the set myself and practice them!"

While Zhang Yu was cultivating, Humanoid Gang Qi flickered around him, helping him with various chores!

At the same time, guided by Multiple Minds, Zhang Yu also used martial arts techniques such as the Heaven Flipping Seal, the Profound Yellow Mountain Suppressing Seal, and the Purple Firmament Heavenly Net Style at the right time!

As Zhang Yu acquired more and more skills, he was able to do more and more work on the construction site!

With the addition of Multiple Minds skills and the effects of the Formless Warrior, his income increased again in October, reaching its peak on this day!

Spirit Coin Balance +0.21

After working overtime all night, Zhang Yu not only improved his cultivation and increased his savings, but also felt the heat in his body dissipate, leaving him feeling refreshed!

Fu Ji exclaimed, "Zhang Yu, since you quit pornography, your work and study efficiency has greatly improved!"

"Once the Yang Strengthening Meat is digested, you should continue!"

Zhang Yu calmly said, "This kind of thing is irrelevant to me. I've never understood what you and A-Zhen are so worried about!"

"I've abstained from pornography for over half a month, and now my resistance is so strong it's frightening to me!"

"I have a feeling that during the future Top Ten League, I might become Ten Thousand Laws University's Secret Weapon against Joyous Union University!"

Walking back to his dorm, Zhang Yu's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw the advertisement featuring beautiful women. He frowned and said, "I haven't searched for these things for over half a month. Is there something wrong with this big data?"

Fu Ji reminded her, "It's probably because you used to search a lot, but recently I've noticed you haven't searched in a long time. I think you're in a vulnerable period where you're easily tempted, so I'm automatically showing you similar ads!"

"Hang in there, Zhang Yu, don't be fooled by these ads!"

Zhang Yu sneered, "A mere advertisement, trying to disturb my peace of mind?"

But after walking another kilometer or so, watching the increasingly explicit advertisement videos, Zhang Yu's face grew redder and his pace quickened!

He said angrily, "That despicable big data attacked me when I was weak, specifically targeting my weaknesses!"
