As the Mysterious Female Heavenly Pearl emitted layers of light, the avatar of the Magnetic Extremes True Lord appeared before Zhang Yu.

A slender figure in elegant palace attire sat in an office chair, looking at Zhang Yu with satisfaction, and said, "I didn't expect I still underestimated you. You really did master the Heaven Kunlun Mountain Moving Divine Power in such a short time."

"While there was a coincidence in timing and the help of True Lord Qiyun, your talent in Martial Dao is also an indispensable part."

Having said that, Magnetic Extremes True Lord slapped his thigh and said, "Come here."

"Let me give you a check-up!"

Thinking about his future plans to enter the Artifact Crafting Department, Zhang Yu could only grit his teeth and sit on the other person's lap!

Feeling the Magnetic Extremes True Lord's fingers tracing across his body, strands of magical power seeped into his meridians, exploring his physical condition!

Zhang Yu felt as if he were a piece of excellent material for refining weapons, constantly receiving comments from the Magnetic Extremes True Lord!

"Excellent, excellent!" said the Magnetic Extremes True Lord. "Your physical body now possesses a trace of Earthly Fiend Gravity. This is the effect of the Heaven Kunlun Mountain Moving Divine Power tempering your body!"

"Through years of practicing and using this Martial Arts, the practitioner's flesh and blood will unknowingly acquire an innate power, allowing them to unleash the Earthly Fiend Gravity while walking, sitting, or lying down!"

"If one's skill is high enough and one's understanding of the Heaven Kunlun Mountain Moving Divine Power is deep enough, even after the flesh and blood leave the body, it will still carry a Earthly Fiend Gravity, and even contain adaptability to the Earthly Fiend Gravity. It is truly an excellent material for creating flying Law Treasure and protective Law Treasure!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu's heart skipped a beat. He forced a laugh and said, "True Lord, do you intend to use some of my flesh and blood... to forge a Law Treasure?"

At this moment, Zhang Yu felt as humble as Junior College!

Magnetic Extremes True Lord held Zhang Yu in his arms, stroking his little hand as he laughed, "What nonsense are you talking about? I, a dignified Nascent Soul True Lord, would I even look at your Foundation Establishment Realm material?"

"I was just thinking that none of the cultivators who possessed the Heaven Kunlun Mountain Moving Divine Power throughout history had studied weapon crafting. There's a huge gap in the research on this area at Ten Thousand Laws University!"

"If you can combine the secrets of the Heaven Kunlun Mountain Moving Divine Power with your research on weapon crafting in the future, for example, by successfully refining your own flesh and blood into Dharma Skeleton, that would be enough to publish several papers!"

"If you can make any discoveries during this process, and even a slight innovation in the related techniques of Earthly Fiend Gravity, then you will have a place in academic research after advancing to the Golden Core stage, and it can also help me in weapon crafting research!"

Zhang Yu nodded thoughtfully.

Then Magnetic Extremes True Lord continued, "Tell me about your Transfer Departments!"

"Now that you've mastered the Heaven Kunlun Mountain Moving Divine Power, have you decided to transfer to the Artifact Crafting Department after your junior year?"

Zhang Yu nodded solemnly and said earnestly, "Teacher, the Department of Earth Sciences is excellent, and there's a bright future there. Director Gao has also treated me well, but... I really want to advance!"

"I want to go further on the path of Immortal Dao, I want to take postgraduate Doctoral Entrance Exam, and even join a sect!"

"I know that only the Artifact Crafting Department has the potential to fulfill my dreams!"

"People strive for higher positions, just as water flows downhill. Although the Civil Engineering Department has treated you well, our Artifact Crafting Department has a much brighter future!"

Magnetic Extremes True Lord nodded with emotion. "It's good that you've made up your mind!"

"But Old Gao is, after all, the head of the Civil Engineering Department. Although I will help you with this matter, it's impossible to say that Old Gao has no thoughts at all!"

"You need to be mentally prepared for the pressure involved!"

Just then, Magnetic Extremes True Lord's eyes flashed, and with a casual approval from Yan Qianji, the other party's Spirit Realm Projection descended!

Yan Qianji reported to Magnetic Extremes True Lord, "True Lord, we've encountered some problems with the artifact spirit's decryption; we need your guidance..."

Magnetic Extremes True Lord said calmly, "What's your question first?"

As Yan Qianji reported, he looked at the Magnetic Extremes True Lord before him, a thought suddenly occurring to him, "Why does it look like the Magnetic Extremes True Lord is holding someone in his arms?"

Although Magnetic Extremes True Lord's arms were clearly empty, Yan Qianji knew that all of that could be masked, and Magnetic Extremes True Lord's actions looked too much like he was holding a person!

"But is that even possible?" Yan Ganji thought to himself, "Who would someone like Magnetic Extremes True Lord be embracing? It couldn't be Ye Xingli, could it?"

Filled with curiosity and surprise, Yan Qianji finished his report and then disconnected the communication!

Zhang Yu couldn't see the projection of Yan Qianji's one-on-one communication with Magnetic Extremes True Lord, but he could sense that Magnetic Extremes True Lord seemed to be making a remote call with someone!

After finishing his conversation with Yan Qianji, Magnetic Extremes True Lord continued, "Although the Seven Wonders Magic Skeleton of the Civil Engineering Department element are not Military-grade Dharma Skeleton, they can work together to greatly enhance the power of the Heaven Kunlun Mountain Moving Divine Power, and have a unique effect on enhancing the Earthly Fiend Gravity!"

"Remember to take all the relevant blueprints with you before you Transfer Departments; they will be a great reference for your future crafting of Dharma Skeleton..."

Listening to Magnetic Extremes True Lord's instructions, Fu Ji thought to herself, "You two, master and disciple, are really trying to skin the Civil Engineering Department bare! You've taken the essence of the Heaven Kunlun Mountain Moving Divine Power and the Seven Wonders Magic Skeleton from the Civil Engineering Department and Wood Department and used it all for weapon crafting. What's left of the Civil Engineering Department? It'll probably just become Artifact Crafting Department under the Ten Thousand Laws University."

"They've taken over the Civil Engineering class!"

After finishing what he had to say, Magnetic Extremes True Lord patted Zhang Yu on the shoulder and said, "Go back first. Focus on the competition. Don't rush into Transfer Departments major; I'll arrange it for you!"

Late January!

On the construction site!

As Zhang Yu's palm print changed, the mountain not far away suddenly exploded, and after shooting into the sky, it was as if it was stirred by invisible vortexes and quickly shattered into dust!

Then Zhang Yu pointed a finger, and a wave of Earthly Fiend Gravity shot out, instantly gathering up the dust and smoke that had exploded everywhere!

During this period of training at the construction site, his Kun Yuan Art had already reached the Foundation Establishment Peak stage at Level 20!

This also means that his Heaven Kunlun Mountain Moving Divine Power has reached Level 20, and he has reached the Foundation Establishment Peak stage!

At the same time, if the First Layer of Inverted Kunlun is also added to the Chain Law Diagram, then Zhang Yu's Heavenly Kun Mountain Moving Divine Power will cause even greater damage to the environment!

Zhang Yu had tried it out briefly in the deserted wilderness, and even without going all out, he was already amazed!

When it comes to giving his all, he has only one judgment in mind!

"Earth-shattering!"

Just then, Zhang Yu saw the message from Feng Tingting!

Feng Tingting: Zhang Yu, have you heard? Ci Zhenjun hugged someone in his office late at night.

Zhang Yu: Huh?

Feng Tingting: It must be top-quality refining material for the True Lord to be able to play with it so late at night!

Zhang Yu: Maybe!

Feng Jiangting: I'm really curious what kind of person could be held like that by the True Lord!

Feng Tingting: I'd be happy if you could give me some scraps!

Zhang Yu: Where did you hear that news?

Feng Tingting: Why are you asking this? I wouldn't just reveal something like this!

Zhang Yu shook his head, thinking to himself that with the cultivation level of Magnetic Extremes True Lord, no one should be able to see that the person he was holding in his arms was him!

A few hours later, another day had passed. Fu Ji reviewed the workload of each employee, calculated their salaries, and then reported it to Zhang Yu!

Zhang Yu distributed the salaries one by one, secretly feeling the pain as he watched the account balances dwindle!

"Sigh, just hang in there a little longer. After all, it's Ten Thousand Laws University's own project, so they won't delay paying me. I should receive a sum of money next month!"

The Soul Cultivator who received their wages sent their gratitude messages one after another!

Zhao Tianxing: Thank you, Mr. Zhang.

Hu Yuntao: Thank you, Mr. Zhang.

Ying Xin's grandfather: Thank you, Mr. Zhang. Seeing how efficiently Zhang Yu distributed salaries, Fu Ji couldn't help but say, "This is a long-term contract; you're employing them for the entire project. They're not like low-paid daily workers. You don't need to pay them every day, do you?"

"We're not a big company, and the project payment hasn't even arrived yet. I think we can delay it for another month or two after the project is finished!"

"You've got quite a bit of money tied up in your hands. You can use it for your own cultivation. When you're not at the construction site, go to the Spirit Realm more often and simulate weapon-refining techniques!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu shook his head and said, "Zhao Tianxing a latecomer to the field, and he wasted a lot of time in his freshman year. He's currently short of money!"

"Mo Tianyi Soul Cultivator early, and his monthly expenses are quite high!"

"Hu Yuntao, Che Yufei is drowning in debt, and his financial situation is even worse!"

"Not to mention the Ying Family, at their age, their daily maintenance costs are considerable. Since they've come here to help me, I don't want to withhold their wages..."

Fu Ji was shocked. "You bastard... why are you taking such good care of your employees?"

She said angrily, "How can you keep giving away Spirit Coin to your employees every day? Isn't that just throwing money away?"

Zhang Yu said calmly, "It's not like we're short of money!"

Fu Ji said angrily, "You can't do this! It's lowering the company's competitiveness too much. How will we grow and expand in the future?"

"Since you've made me the CFO, you have to do as I say!"

To be honest, Zhang Yu didn't know how to answer Fu Ji's question!

Zhang Yu even understood that Fu Ji's words were not wrong from some perspectives; reducing labor costs could indeed increase the company's competitiveness!

But at least for now, given his ability to avoid withholding wages, Zhang Yu didn't want to do that!

She couldn't even imagine what tone she should use to talk to Zhao Tianxing and Che Yufei about this kind of thing!

After her attempts to persuade him failed, Fu Ji suddenly remembered something and said, "You little brat, you're the only one in the whole company who gets exploited, aren't you?"

Zhang Yu comforted him, "You're a shareholder, so if things go well for me, you'll benefit immensely!"

At that moment, Fu Ji suddenly realized something. "Damn it... it seems like I'm the only one in Zhang Yu's company who can't leave."

Several days later.

Zhang Yu followed Shi Huaiyu, Su Yanyang, and others to Vajra University!

Today is the day they face off against Vajra University in the Losers' Bracket, deciding who will be the true loser of this year's competition!

Looking down at the glittering university below the Flying Boat, apart from Zhang Yu who looked calm and collected, Su Yanyang and the others felt both nervous and worried, clearly not entirely confident about the upcoming competition!
