Che Yufei: Zhang Yu, I've made up my mind. I've decided to sell our spot on the Competition Team.

Seeing the message from Che Yufei, Zhang Yu naturally chose not to interfere.

Ultimately, whether one chooses to continue participating in the competition to obtain a better resume and a higher Comprehensive Score, or to exchange for money now, acquire more Spirit Coin, and spend them on other things, it is a personal choice.

Especially Che Yufei is already an eighth-grader, he has his own ideas and judgments and can decide which path is more suitable for him in the future.

Seeing Zhang Yu's reply agreeing, Che Yufei sighed inwardly, "With my abilities, staying in the team wouldn't cost me much money, and I'd only become more and more of an eyesore, wouldn't I? I might as well exchange for Spirit Coin sooner and leave a good impression on everyone!"

"Sigh, if I had met Zhang Yu a few years earlier, my life might have been very different!"

On the other side, Zhang Yu looked at the final selections for the team spots and asked in the Competition Team group chat, "Is everything alright?"

Shi Huaiyu: No problem

Shi Huaiyu: The highest bidder wins, and besides, he's already lost money on me!

Zhang Yu asked this question simply because the person who won the bid for the spot this time was Su Yanyang. Although Su Yanyang, as Neutral Faction, had already received Director Gao's approval to join!

But... remembering the conflict between the other party and Shi Huaiyu, he asked for everyone's opinion in the Competition Group!

But it's clear to the students of Ten Thousand Laws University that whoever pays more gets to decide, and even past conflicts are just minor setbacks!

In the Competition Group!

Che Yufei has left the group chat!

Su Yanyang has joined the group chat!

Warning: Su Yanyang carries multiple legal and credit risks. Please be aware of your asset security!

Seeing the warning message that appeared after Su Yanyang joined the group chat, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Just how many people does this guy owe money to?"

Su Yanyang: Hello everyone, it's an honor to join the Competition Team. Thank you all for the opportunity!

Shi Huaiyu: Enough talk, send the money first!

This time, Su Yanyang didn't delay and quickly transferred the money, totaling 26.7 Spirit Coin!

One-third of the money went to Zhang Yu, one-third to Che Yufei, and the remaining one-third was split equally among the four official teammates!

Su Yanyang felt a pang of regret after paying the money, since his finances had been tight over the past year. He had finally managed to earn some Spirit Coin through Nectar Coin, and now he had spent most of them in the blink of an eye!

"All the money we worked so hard to earn has been taken by Zhang Yu and his gang!"

He hesitated for a moment, thinking, "Nectar Coin has been performing well lately, should I try some leverage?"

On the other side, Zhang Yu looked at his savings, which had increased to 51.05 Spirit Coin, and couldn't help but marvel at how fast his savings were growing!

"With Director Gao Gao's investment and my steadily increasing income from my part-time job, my monthly surplus is also growing!"

"Where will the money go next?"

The first choice that came to Zhang Yu's mind was to focus on weapon crafting Cultivation Method and painstakingly assemble the Chain Law Diagram Set for Artifact Forging Prodigy!

In the past, Zhang Yu could not afford to learn Dao Arts Cultivation Method because of their high cultivation costs. So, while learning various Law Treasure production skills, he also learned those weapon-refining Cultivation Method!

"Now we can offer some discounts, but..."

Zhang Yu then thought of his Elder Sister Zhang Pianpian's Taiqing Realm. If he could gather more Spirit Coin, he could directly send her 100 Spirit Coin to upgrade the Taiqing Talismans to Level 2!

"The Taiqing Realm has always been a great help to me. I wonder what kind of improvement it will bring if it reaches Level 2."

After thinking it over, Zhang Yu decided to invest in his Elder Sister first!

"After all, upgrading the Great Qing Realm only costs 100 Spirit Coin. Once the upgrade is complete, it will definitely be a great help to my development!"

"To collect the Artifact Forging Prodigy, the cost of cultivating each of these Cultivation Method alone would far exceed 100 Spirit Coin. I wonder how long that will take!"

The Italian team and the savings flashed through Zhang Yu's mind, and he had already made his decision!

His attention returned to what was in front of him, to the Simulation Lab in the Spirit Realm!

He skillfully operated and refined various materials and equipment; Zhang Yu was practicing a new weapon-refining technique—a hundred treasure chests!

As the number of Law Treasure he carried gradually increased, Zhang Yu began to feel the inconvenience of carrying Law Treasure!

The Hundred Treasures Box is a Law Treasure that can store Law Treasure. It is shaped like a box about the height of a person and can fly at subsonic speeds against Anti-gravity. It can also project Law Treasure at supersonic speeds to achieve rapid response and support!

Time flies, and it's already early November!

The simulated battlefield resounded with explosions and billowing dust throughout the day!

Zhang Yu, riding on the Formless Spirit General, collided fiercely with Xiao Yunjin, who had three heads and six arms!

At this moment Formless Spirit General moved all four arms at the same time, each arm holding a golden weapon formed from Taiyi Golden Liquid Pill, and fought against Xiao Yunjin!

With each collision, Xiao Yunjin was forced to retreat, and various warning sounds emanated from his Dharma Skeleton body and Law Treasure!

I remember how Zhang Yu was chased all over the field by me last year!

A hint of admiration appeared on Xiao Yunjin's face!

Meanwhile, Su Yanyang, Shi Huaiyu, and Xiao Qingxuan broke through to the rear and caused a ruckus at Xiao Yunjin's team's construction site, making a complete mess of the newly erected buildings!

Looking at Xiao Yunjin, who was being completely suppressed by Zhang Yu and was still being beaten, Su Yanyang showed a hint of relief. "This money wasn't wasted!"

In the end, Zhang Yu and his team won the match with an overwhelming advantage!

With the conclusion of this competition, the battle for the top ten rankings within the Department Competition has also come to a complete end!

Zhang Yu checked the rankings and found that his team was ranked second, only behind the first-place team, Mo Shang Jin!

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Second place is pretty much my limit!"

Although he had the right to challenge, Zhang Yu understood that it would be pointless for him to challenge Mo Shang Jin's team, since Mo Shang Jin alone, with his Heaven Kunlun Mountain Moving Divine Power, was enough to sweep them away!

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Once the challenge matches end next week and the rankings are determined, I will officially obtain a spot among the Seven Absolutes and be awarded the fourth Master title!"

While Zhang Yu was studying, cultivating, and participating in competitions in a methodical manner, the Nectar Coin continued to rise steadily!

The Ten Thousand Laws University leadership and the Civil Engineering Department department leaders have repeatedly warned of the risks involved and advised the students to evacuate as soon as possible!

However, most of the students, already caught up in their fanaticism, were unwilling to listen to these opinions!

Especially after the results of the second round of the Nectar Dual Cultivation lottery were announced, and several students from Ten Thousand Laws University won the prize, this frenzied atmosphere surged to its limit!

Ping Han: Zhang Yu's junior.

Ping Han: Did you see my Moments?

Ping Han: I won the lottery! I'll be going to Joyous Union University soon to attend Thousand Cultivator Conference. I'm so proud of myself!

Looking at the message the other party sent, Zhang Yu curled his lip, thinking to himself, "This guy really likes to show off!"

Yu Xinghan, standing to the side, said with a face full of envy, "Damn it... I'm so jealous! I really want to kill Ping Han and take his place!"

Zhang Yu said, "The Nectar Divine Lord has so many incarnations, and not all of them are female. Perhaps the one assigned to Ping Han is male?"

Yu Xinghan sighed, "Zhang Yu, the matter of Dual Cultivation shouldn't be so rigidly defined by gender. We should change this outdated idea as soon as possible!"

With the final rankings within the department confirmed, Zhang Yu's team successfully secured second place!

With the increase in his Comprehensive Score, Zhang Yu's ranking in the department also jumped to 25th in the entire department!

At the same time, the bidding for the second spot in the Seven Absolutes Wonders competition began in the group!

Shi Huaiyu checked his account but ultimately decided not to cash out the Nectar Coin!

Su Yanyang had already spent a lot of Spirit Coin to join the Competition Team, and recently he invested the remaining money in Nectar Coin, leaving him with no money to participate in the auction!

Thus, the second spot in the Seven Absolutes Wonders of Earth and Wood ultimately fell into the hands of Gongshu Jin. Looking at this result, Gongshu Jin was extremely excited. "I never thought that I would get the first place in the class even once, but now I will get the second Seven Wonders of Civil Engineering."

The next day, under Director Gao's guidance, Zhang Yu studied the Dragon Vein Sensing Chapter of the Fourth Secret of Wood Removal!

This Cultivation Method allows one to sense the earth's veins and enhance their own strength by harnessing the earth's energy. As long as one's feet are firmly planted on the ground, one can unleash greater physical strength and explosive power!

More than an hour later, seeing that Zhang Yu had already mastered the Dragon Vein Sensing Chapter, Director Gao nodded in satisfaction and continued, "Prepare well. Starting in December, team up with Mo Shang Jin and the others to prepare for the Inter-University League!"

"After this Inter-University League format reform, we'll play one match every so often, which could take several months in total. You should learn from Mo Shang Jin and the others, and also see what it's like at other universities..."

After listening attentively to Director Gao's instructions, Zhang Yu couldn't wait to ask, "Teacher, what about the remaining Seven Absolutes?"

Director Gao said, "Of the Seven Civil Engineering Tests, the one I'm in charge of, you can come and participate in it in a while!"

"There's another professor in charge; I've already made arrangements, and he'll call you over before the end of the year!"

"The last item..."

Director Gao frowned. "Director Lin was in charge of the approval process, and I'm still trying to find a solution for you!"

"Don't rush things. Focus on mastering the Martial Arts you've learned first!"

After leaving, Zhang Yu did not engage in weapon crafting today. Instead, he went to the construction site to work and practice the Dragon Vein Sensing Chapter at the same time!

Just then, Zhang Yu suddenly received a message from Zhang Pianpian!

Zhang Pianpian: You didn't buy the Nectar Coin, did you?
