Busy Zhang Yu

As Zhang Yu Yu's refining skill for Azure Sand advanced to Level 2, countless images of refining Azure Sand flashed through his mind: the circulation of various magical powers and Gang Qi, the handling of materials, the control of heat, the details of spraying the Fiber Composite Membrane, and the experience of stabilizing Magical Power Circuit...

One after another, refining memories surfaced in Zhang Yu's mind, giving him a sudden and deeper understanding and insight into the refining of Azure Sand.

So when he tried refining Azure Sand with one-tenth of the materials again, the success rate increased dramatically!

The quality of the Azure Sand has also seen a visible improvement!

Looking at the finished Azure Sand that Zhang Yu had refined, Ye Xingli was slightly surprised. "The color is bright, and the impurities and purity seem to be much better than before. Is it Level 2 Azure Sand?"

Was it just luck? Or did he really improve quickly?

Ye Xingli continued to observe, but soon discovered that Zhang Yu had started arbitrarily compressing the refining time again, and the produced Azure Sand had returned to the level Level 1 level!

After six hours of practice, Zhang Yu, through repeated attempts, managed to reduce the refining time of the Azure Sand to approximately 15 minutes!

"When the material is compressed to one-tenth, that's 0.003."

Spirit Coin!

"The rental fee for the venue and equipment is 0.7 Spirit Coin for 6 hours. After splitting it with Ye Xingli, it becomes 0.35 Spirit Coin. If we maintain a refining interval of 15 minutes, we can complete 24 refinings in 6 hours!"

Zhang Yu silently calculated in his mind. "If we calculate it this way, the cost of refining once is reduced to about 0.01758 Spirit Coin!"

And this isn't even the limit!

Zhang Yu thought of his own Formless Warrior and Deep Cold Warrior!

Just like how you can use the Formless Warrior and the Deep Cold Warrior to do the work on a construction site, he felt that the same way could be used for weapon forging!

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "The cost reduction for materials and time can now be fixed. Next time, I'll activate the Quadruple Thinking to see if I can refine four portions of Azure Sand simultaneously. If successful, not only can the cost be further reduced, but the efficiency of cultivation will also increase dramatically!"

"Besides, if I sell some of the Azure Sand Azure Sand after continuously refining it to recoup some of the losses, I can further reduce the amount of Spirit Coin I spend!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu looked at Ye Xingli beside him and asked, "Senior, if I want to sell some of the products I made as practice in the future, where would be the most convenient place to ship them?"

Ye Xingli thought for a moment about Magnetic Extremes True Lord's instructions and said directly, "If you trust me, you can just leave your things with me from now on!"

I have some connections in the Artifact Crafting Department, so I can help you sell them. However, basic weapon crafting products won't fetch high prices; at most, they'll only let you break even!

Zhang Yu nodded quickly and said, "I know, it's okay, as long as I can break even!"

After leaving the laboratory, they said their goodbyes.

As Ye Xingli watched Zhang Yu's departing figure, she sent a message to Magnetic Extremes True Lord: Master, Zhang Yu and I have come out of the laboratory!

Magnetic Extremes True Lord: How did Zhang Yu perform?

Ye Xingli: My talent in weapon crafting is alright. I managed to craft Level 2 Azure Sand in 6 hours!

Ye Xingli; however, her attitude is problematic. She's just starting out and already likes to arbitrarily change the portions and timing!

Ye Xingli briefly described what she had seen!

Magnetic Extremes True Lord replied: I understand!

Magnetic Extremes True Lord: If he wants to sell his produce in the future, then temporarily help him consign it!

Magnetic Extremes True Lord: We can also split the lab costs with him!

Hearing Magnetic Extremes True Lord instruct her to help Zhang Yu in this way, Ye Xingli finally couldn't contain her doubts and asked, "Master, Zhang Yu is a student in the Civil Engineering Department, right? His talent for weapon crafting isn't particularly outstanding, so why are you helping him like this?"

Magnetic Extremes True Lord: Director Gao of the Civil Engineering Department wants to transfer his disciple to the Artifact Crafting Department!

Magnetic Extremes True Lord: Although I don't really recommend him do that!

Magnetic Extremes True Lord: But we have a friendship spanning hundreds of years. Since he insists, then even if we suffer a loss, we should still help him if we can!

Looking at the message sent by Magnetic Extremes True Lord, Ye Xingli couldn't help but sigh at the friendship between Magnetic Extremes True Lord and Director Gao!

She thought to herself, "As expected, it wasn't Zhang Yu, a Civil Engineering Department student, who attracted the master, but rather Director Gao!"

Ye Xingli also felt that this made sense. After all, a Civil Engineering Department student would be like a "Junior College" at Ten Thousand Laws University, just like Security Department. With a master of such high status...

How could I possibly be interested in their taste? I'd probably need a bribe before I could even say a word!

"But is the friendship between Master and Director Gao between ancient cultivators? Although Master has kept up with the times and has been learning cutting-edge Immortal Dao Technique and keeping up with the trends of Kunlun, he is still an ancient person after all. In the end, his thoughts are still inevitably influenced by the dregs of ancient culture!"

Just as Ye Xingli was pondering, Magnetic Extremes True Lord sent another message!

Magnetic Extremes True Lord: This matter is still confidential. Even if you ask me and Director Gao in person, we will not admit it!

Magnetic Extremes True Lord: Remember not to tell anyone.

Ye Xingli: Master, don't worry about my mouth. Even if someone throws 1000 Spirit Coin at me, I won't tell anyone!

Meanwhile, on the other side, Zhang Yu was on his way to the construction site on the 667th Layer!

He first looked at the Azure Sand Level 2 (10/20) on the Feather Scroll, and then looked at another weapon crafting skill on the Feather Scroll, Azure Cloud Pouch Level 0 (0/1, Azure Sand Level 2/5).

This Azure Cloud Pouch is a Law Treasure blueprint that Zhang Yu learned in the Artifact Crafting Department course. It is a magical Law Treasure that can be used to store Azure Sand!

With the infusion of magical power, it is possible to perform large-scale spraying and recycling of Azure Sand!

Just like Zhang Yu's cultivation Cultivation Method, many weapon-refining skills also have threshold requirements to master!

The refining of Azure Sand requires magical power and Gang Qi, while the azure sand-collecting bag requires mastering certain Azure Sand refining techniques!

"Whether it's Law Treasure or Dharma Skeleton, besides the requirements in terms of realm, Dao Heart, and magical power, there are often prerequisites for various refining techniques!"

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "To cultivate step by step to the point where I can refine my physical body into Dharma Skeleton, besides cultivation level, I need to master a large number of prerequisite weapon-refining techniques!"

"There's still a long way to go!"

"However, with so many weapon-refining techniques, there's probably no need to perfect every single one in the future; just enough to get by is fine!"

As for more distant goals, such as owning his own Artifact Forging Laboratory and establishing his own production line, Zhang Yu can only dream about them for now!

Arriving at the construction site with practiced ease, Zhang Yu saw countless Formless Warrior appearing around him!

Then, with a flick of his wrist, he scattered a handful of Azure Sand onto the bodies of these Formless Warrior!

As the surging Gang Qi within the Formless Warrior's body rippled, it revealed wisps of Azure Sand, giving the Formless Warrior a more solid feel!

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Azure Sand can increase the efficiency of Gang Qi conduction and reduce its consumption rate, which should improve my work efficiency!"

So, Zhang Yu controlled the Formless Warrior to work and earn money on the construction site, while he himself was shrouded in a cloud of Formless Cloud Gang and began to cultivate the seventh Cultivation Method of the Martial Dao Sacred Body!

Several hours passed, and as dawn broke, Zhang Yu calculated his wages for the day and thought to himself: the construction efficiency has improved by about 5%!

"Not bad, not bad. If the grade of the Azure Sand is even higher in the future, the efficiency of improvement should be even higher!"

"In this way, even if Senior Ye Xingli doesn't sell many Azure Sand on consignment, I can still use them to increase my income at the construction site!"

With this in mind, Zhang Yu became even more motivated!

In the days that followed, Zhang Yu would rent the Artifact Forging Laboratory once or twice a week to practice his weapon-refining skills!

The rest of the time, he attends classes during the day and works on construction sites at night, while also practicing the Martial Dao Sacred Body Cultivation Method!

In addition, he also needs to find time to study Artifact Forging Course in the Taiqing Realm, absorb 200% high-quality mana to improve the Magical Power Quality, and go to Hammer Heart Residence to temper his Dao Heart...

Inside the laboratory!

Ye Xingli glanced at the three Formless Warrior beside her and thought to herself, "Such strong thinking ability!"

"But is multitasking like this, producing multiple portions of Azure Sand at the same time, really good for improving your weapon-refining skills? Improving weapon-refining skills isn't about just piling on the number of refining attempts!"

In Ye Xingli's opinion, unless it's about meeting production targets, it's better to focus on refining a batch of Azure Sand, paying attention to details such as materials, steps, time, heat, magic power, Gang Qi, and constantly learning and adjusting. This will be more effective in improving one's skills!

The next moment, Ye Xingli's gaze suddenly shifted, looking at the Azure Sand that had been successfully refined in front of the Formless Warrior!

"Level 3 Azure Sand?"

"That's interesting!"

Ye Xingli thought to herself, "Although he likes to act recklessly, Zhang Yu's talent in weapon crafting seems to be stronger than I expected!"

However, she wasn't too concerned about it, since when Ye Xingli first refined Azure Sand, she directly refined Level 5 Azure Sand!

Turning her head, Ye Xingli continued interviewing her new spirit!

"You graduated from Joyous Union University before you died? May I ask what your primary gender was?"

"You're Upper-School Student? Sorry, this recruitment drive only wants to hire Soul Cultivator who have graduated from the top ten!"

"Heavenly Devil University? Welcome to join us! From now on, just treat my right hand as your own home!"

Zhang Yu had just left the laboratory when he received a message from Gongshu Jin!

Upon reading the message, Zhang Yu's eyes lit up. "Is the buffet about to start?"

At the same time, Ye Xingli looked at Zhang Yu and said, "You're going to the party later, right? After all, it's a celebration for the Civil Engineering Department!"

Zhang Yu nodded. He already knew that this gathering was arranged by Mo Shang Jin, mainly to celebrate their second-place finish in the Inter-University League!

Ye Xingli casually said, "Then let's go together, I'm going to participate too!"

Zhang Yu followed Ye Xingli to the 650th Layer of Ten Thousand Laws University. As soon as they stepped out of the Anti-Gravity Channel, they saw Gongshu Jin already waiting outside!

Gongshu Jin was taken aback to see Zhang Yu walking with Ye Xingli!

Compared to when he first met Ye Xingli last year, Ye Xingli is now vastly different in Gongshu Jin's eyes!

That means the 15th place ranking in the Artifact Crafting Department Artifact Crafting Department above their head has become the 8th!

With this ranking in the Artifact Crafting Department, one of the three top departments, Ye Xingli is already considered a first-rate student of Ten Thousand Laws University in Gongshu Jin's eyes!

Seeing the two chatting and laughing, Gongshu Jin thought to himself, "When did Zhang Yu and Ye Xingli become so close?"
