Leaving the Team

Hearing what Director Gao said, Zhang Yu's heart stirred. He knew that the Department Competition was a selection competition organized by Ten Thousand Laws University itself. The so-called first place representing the Civil Engineering Department in the Inter-University League was also a rule set by the Civil Engineering Department itself, which was used to resolve factional disputes such as the War Faction and the Peace Faction.

Theoretically speaking, the team members can be adjusted to some extent.

However, this raises suspicions of behind-the-scenes manipulation and backroom deals.

However, Zhang Yu thought that he would have already obtained his Military Certificate by then, so even if he did do that, probably no one would gossip!

"It feels so good to get in through connections based on merit!"

Director Gao then said, "Alright, now you should focus on recovering!"

"If you have a problem and don't want to go to the hospital, then go see Xiao Qingxuan for treatment!"

"However, Ancient Medical Arts are still quite Immortal Dao in many ways, and the underlying principles have not yet been fully explored. Please read the letter!"

Zhang Yu asked in confusion, "Reading the letter?"

Director Gao said, "If it works well, trust it; if it doesn't, stop using it!"

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single thing, not a single wonder, not a single novel to read!

After completing the contract, Zhang Yu was entitled to a monthly reimbursement allowance of 30 Spirit Coin!

On his way back to the dormitory, he had already started thinking about how to spend the money!

"Spirit Realm Service are definitely needed!"

"And then there are medicine and Dao Arts services!"

"Sigh, the materials for refining weapons can't be reimbursed... I guess I'll have to rely on the 30 Spirit Coin for other expenses!"

"The Spirit Coin saved will be used to further hone our weapon-refining skills!"

With a hint of helplessness in his heart, Zhang Yu returned to his dormitory and went to the Taiqing Realm again to begin his Artifact Forging Course! He thought to himself, "Once I get my Military Certificate, I'll probably have to hurry up and master the Seven Wonders of Civil Engineering. By then, I probably won't have much time for online classes!"

Although he was likely to get his Military Certificate this time, Zhang Yu wasn't too proud of it!

After all, his goal is to participate in the Top Ten League and be admitted to Ten Great Sects!

To achieve this, he still feels there isn't enough time!

Having witnessed the battle between Mo Shang Jin and Profound Measurement Heaven last year, he understands even more clearly that there is still a huge gap between him and those senior students who have mastered Military-grade Martial Arts!

Mo Shang Jin also failed to defeat Heavenly Demon University and win first place in the inter-school Civil Engineering League!

Above the Mo Shang Jin, there are even more students in the top-tier universities' flagship programs who have mastered Military-grade Dao Arts, Military-grade Dharma Skeleton, Military-grade Artifact... and even Divine Spiritual Root!

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "I'm still at least three or four levels below the truly top-tier university students, aren't I?"

"If I want to successfully transfer to the Artifact Crafting Department during university, time will be even tighter..."

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu felt tense all over again and began to make the most of his time recuperating to study online in the Taiqing Realm!

Just as Zhang Yu was making the most of his time and studying diligently!

On a training field!

A senior Civil Engineering student smiled and said to Ping Han, "Brother Han, is your Military Certificate a sure thing this time?"

Ping Han waved his hand and said, "The results aren't out yet!"

A senior Civil Engineering student said, "We've all heard from the other participants that you performed the best overall. Who else could get the Military Certificate if not you?"

Ping Han stopped the other person from continuing, "Don't talk nonsense, let's wait for the results announced from above!"

Just then, another student asked, "Brother Han, what's your take on the future trend of Nectar Coin?"

Ping Han smiled slightly and said confidently, "The Nectar Divine Lord is a veteran Nascent Soul cultivator, backed by Joyous Union University. Dual Cultivation is an indispensable element of Immortal Dao Technique, a necessity for countless cultivators..."

"Especially with the lottery for the Nectar Divine Lord starting tomorrow, with such good news, the price of the coin will definitely surge again after tomorrow!"

"The prize-giving Thousand Cultivator Conference will be broadcast live. It's like a thunderclap in spring, ushering in a new chapter for the Dual Cultivation industry and creating a siphon effect. Now is the window of opportunity to make money!"

If you want my advice, it's to buy!

"It's never too late to buy Nectar Coin!"

The students around them nodded repeatedly, looking even more attentive than if they were in class!

When Mo Shang Jin arrived, he saw everyone gathered around Ping Han, listening to him talk about the Nectar Coin!

Seeing this, Mo Shang Jin frowned slightly and coughed, "Time to train!"

After reminding them several times, and watching the Competition Team members reluctantly disperse, Mo Shang Jin's brows furrowed even more deeply!

Ping Han looked at Mo Shang Jin and smiled, "Old Mo, did you read the information I sent you?"

Mo Shang Jin said calmly, "The fluctuations in Nectar Coin are too great; I don't play with them!"

Ping Han laughed heartily, "I know, you love your school, you only buy coins from Ten Thousand Laws University!"

"But you really should try this time. From the Nectar Divine Lord's lottery to the Thousand Cultivator Conference, the Nectar Coin will definitely skyrocket in the coming period. It's practically picking up money with your eyes closed..."

Mo Shang Jin waved his hand to stop the other person, saying, "Alright, you don't need to tell me anymore! And during training, don't talk about Coin Speculation with anyone else, it will affect everyone's concentration!"

But in the following days, as rumors spread more and more in the Civil Engineering Department about Ping Han obtaining his Military Certificate, and as the amount of Nectar Coin continued to increase, Mo Shang Jin noticed that the atmosphere in the team was getting more and more strange!

During training, my teammates always seemed distracted, clearly checking the price of the cryptocurrency every now and then!

Team members would often stand there looking blank, or ask Ping Han about Coin Speculation trading whenever they had a spare moment!

Several people even asked Mo Shang Jin for money, wanting to buy Nectar Coin!

Even Ping Han... Mo Shang Jin could sense that the other party was becoming more and more...

The more he focused on training, the more he spent his time chatting with people in the coaching group or posting all sorts of things online promoting Nectar Coin!

So on this day, Mo Shang Jin finally couldn't hold back and went to find the other party!

But in the face of Mo Shang Jin's accusations, Ping Han said confidently, "We've clearly won first place in the Department Competition, so there's no need to rush into training, is there?"

"Instead of wasting this time, we'd be better off borrowing more money and buying some Nectar Coin!"

"Isn't the improvement from solid Coin Speculation trading far more reliable than this kind of superficial training?"

After several unsuccessful negotiations, the two sides erupted into an even fiercer argument!

Finally, with a loud bang, Ping Han was sent flying by Mo Shang Jin's palm strike!

Mo Shang Jin coldly said, "If you're going to continue ruining the team's atmosphere and leading everyone to spend all day researching Nectar Coin, then you should leave the team!"

Silently standing up, Ping Han gave Mo Shang Jin a deep look and slowly said, "Mo Shang Jin, I have the opportunity to help everyone make money. What's wrong with that?"

"You've already missed your chance, do you really want us to earn less too?"

Black Entropy Ember: "Get lost!"

An invisible force sent Ping Han flying with a bang, shooting out like a meteor, covering a distance of hundreds of meters before finally crashing heavily to the ground!

Mo Shang Jin looked at the other team members and said coldly, "Anyone else who shares his idea can leave now!"

"No, then let's focus on training!"

On the other side, Ping Han slowly stood up, his heart boiling with anger. "Mo Shang Jin, now that you've mastered Military-grade Martial Arts, you're even stronger. It's fine if you kick me!"

"Once I get my Military Certificate, I'll master the Heaven Kunlun Mountain Moving Divine Power, and then I'll be waiting for you to invite me back!"

Inside the dormitory!

Zhang Yu swung his fists and feet, feeling the condition of his own body!

"My injuries are almost completely healed!"

"Looks like I can go back to work on the construction site tomorrow!"

Just then, Magnetic Extremes True Lord sent a message!

Magnetic Extremes True Lord: From now on, you can use the 30 Spirit Coin you'll need for cultivation expenses each month to have a magic Law Treasure custom-made by Ye Xingli!

Magnetic Extremes True Lord: Ye Xingli will assign you a task; you'll have to refine your own Law Treasure then!

Upon seeing the message from Magnetic Extremes True Lord, Zhang Yu's eyes lit up. If this were done, wouldn't the Law Treasure and the funds for purchasing Law Treasure... all belong to him?

"At most, I'll just have to pay for the materials!"

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "This way, I can use the 30 Spirit Coin I have each month to refine weapons!"

So for the next few days, Zhang Yu continued his life of wandering between the classroom, construction site, Spirit Realm, and Taiqing Realm!

Attending classes, working part-time, learning Civil Engineering knowledge, studying Artifact Forging Course, practicing weapon crafting skills... these activities occupied almost Zhang Yu's entire life!

With more abundant financial support, Zhang Yu felt his weapon-refining skills improve by leaps and bounds, and an idea welled up in his mind!

Looking at the Chain Law Diagram of the Treasure Appraisal Art Manual and the set of Artifact Forging Prodigy, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Once I have more funds, perhaps I should find some time to try practicing weapon-refining Cultivation Method!"

And just as Director Gao had predicted, the Civil Engineering Competition within the department was held ahead of schedule!

Zhang Yu and Shi Huaiyu formed another team and participated in the first round of the selection competition!

The selection process was the same as the previous one: a high-speed sprint through Chaos Force Field, ultimately selecting the top 20 teams based on their overall performance!

The matches for the top 20 have been scheduled for several days later!

The match list had already been decided, and Zhang Yu was slightly surprised to see his opponent this time!

"Ma Xuan again?" Zhang Yu recalled the grueling battle of the previous year and his own progress over the past year, thinking to himself, "This time it should be much easier!"

In Ma Xuan's Competition Group!

Ma Xuan: I never expected my opponent to be Zhang Yu again this time!

Su Yanyang: This time I'll take you guys flying!

Su Yanyang: I've seen Zhang Yu's skill level. His progress over the past year is probably far less than mine!

Ma Xuan: Haha, if the two of us join forces and launch Small Three Harmonies attack, we will definitely defeat him and Shi Huaiyu!

Ji Yuan Shu looked at the conversation in the group chat, his heart secretly pounding with excitement. "With Su Yanyang joining us now, we'll definitely be able to beat Zhang Yu's team. Then my Comprehensive Score will be able to catch up again, and maybe even surpass his!"

Ma Xuan: Let's discuss the specific tactics!

Su Yanyang: Ever since my defeat last time, I have carefully studied Zhang Yu's fighting style and have already come up with a sure-fire strategy to win!

Su Yanyang; his tactics are disgusting, but they also have major flaws. As long as we control him, the rest of the people are not a threat!

Su Yanyang: What's more, we've already greatly increased our strength through Coin Speculation during this period!

As Ma Xuan, Ji Yuan Shu, and other team members listened to Su Yanyang's eloquent speech, they felt that his analysis was exceptionally accurate and his tactics were well-prepared. The more they listened, the more confident and excited they became!

But suddenly, Su Yanyang stopped sending messages!

Ma Xuan waited for a while and called out to the other party in the group, but there was still no response!

He messaged the other person: Old Su?

Ma Xuan: Where are you?

After a long while, Su Yanyang finally asked:

Su Yanyang:

Ma Xuan: Speak properly, stop just sending emojis, what's wrong?

Su Yanyang: The results of the Military Certificate are in.
