Not long after Zhang Yu left, Feng Yuhan Eye Remains the message sent by True Lord Xian Yin.

True Lord Xian Yin: Has the funding been approved yet? Feng Yuhan: Don't worry, it'll be in the account soon. Feng Yuhan: But you guys need to hurry.

True Lord Xian Yin: Don't worry, the Magnetic Pole have already been established. If we continue along this path, we'll soon see results.

After exchanging a few words with the True Lord Xian Yin of the Artifact Crafting Department, Feng Yuhan finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.

This time, by taking advantage of the current delicate situation in Ten Thousand Laws University City, he successfully helped the five Nascent Soul True Lord of the Artifact Crafting Department to establish their own project teams and participate in the experiment of the Spirit Transformation Magic Skeleton!

Such actions, ostensibly to help Magnetic Extremes True Lord, will in reality take away a significant portion of Magnetic Extremes True Lord's achievements, reputation, qualifications, and funding in the research on the Spirit Transformation Magic Skeleton!

Especially when the Magnetic Extremes True Lord had made breakthroughs in his research on the Spirit Transformation Magic Skeleton, he could not escape the suspicion of reaping the benefits!

But Feng Yuhan naturally didn't care about these things. With the other Nascent Soul True Lord in the Artifact Crafting Department keeping him in check, he could better control the Spirit Transformation Magic Skeleton project!

At the same time, we can obtain more convenient and detailed information and data about the entire experiment through multiple channels!

"Hmph, Magnetic Pole... A guy like you who only knows how to bury himself in the lab can't even manage the people under his own Artifact Crafting Department. How can the school entrust such an important project as the Spirit Transformation Magic Skeleton to you?"

Dear readers, please search "Cultivation? Ain't Got No Money For That! is this?" on Bing to read the latest chapters. Your support is the biggest motivation for the editor to update.

"Once everyone else has achieved results this time, I'll show you that you're not the only one who knows Magnetic Pole to forge weapons!"

Feng Shouhan had seen many cultivators who specialized in a particular aspect of Immortal Dao Technique, and who became arrogant, extravagant, and disdainful of others. In order to maintain the research order at the school, he had also dealt with many of them!

In Feng Yuhan's view, the technical staff do not understand the difficulties of the school, lack a big picture perspective, and only care about their own small laboratory. They should obediently listen to the rules in order to maintain the rule of law in the University City!

As for Zhang Yu? One student had to cooperate with five more Nascent Soul True Lord in their experiments, which increased his workload several times over. This was a trivial matter that Feng Yuhan didn't even take to heart!

Every year, countless ordinary people are affected by the Combat Arts and go bankrupt!

It was just adding a little more workload for one student, and Feng Yuhan couldn't possibly care. He quickly forgot about it...

After leaving Feng Yuhan's office, Zhang Yu began to think of a solution!

First, the most common choice in Kunxu... endure it?

Zhang Yu shook his head inwardly. "With all this cooperating with the experiments of several Nascent Soul True Lord, how much time will I have left to work on my own projects?"

Moreover, although outsiders were not optimistic, Zhang Yu knew that the progress of his Heavenly Sun Brilliant God Prototype Machine was at a crucial moment in the competition with Jin Jun, so how could he waste time?

If he fails in the competition, he will have to wait a whole school year, which is an outcome that Zhang Yu, who is eager to participate in the Top Ten League, absolutely does not want to accept!

"And the next Design Competition is next May, so I have to submit my entry before then!"

"If I do the math, I'd better finish the Prototype Machine of the Heavenly Sun God by April or before, so I can have more than a month to prepare my entry for the Design Competition."

"Then we need to secure other Military Grade resources; otherwise, how can we dominate the Top Ten League?"

The more Zhang Yu thought about it, the more he felt the urgency of the coming year, and the less willing he was to waste time on experiments with other Nascent Soul True Lord!

Just then, a message appeared in Zhang Yu's Eye Remains!

Zi Yun Zhen: Boss, when are you coming to the lab?

Zhang Yu: You get ready first, I'll be back after I finish what I'm doing.

After thinking it over, Zhang Yu decided to first find his Master, Magnetic Pole, who should be quite familiar with the current situation!

Regardless of what Zhang Yu does next, gathering intelligence and information will inevitably be the first step!

Inside the laboratory!

Magnetic Extremes True Lord held a rhombus-shaped crystal in her hand. As she circulated her magical power, she gradually extracted wisps of pain from the crystal!

This is the latest achievement of the Magnetic Extremes True Lord. Following the Magical Power Exchange and Blood Essence Exchange, she completed the first Memory Exchange, obtaining a trace of the memory of pain from the vast ocean of memories of the Spirit Transformation Magic Skeleton!

After a long while, she slowly opened her eyes, looked at Zhang Yu beside her, and said, "I know what happened!"

"Heh heh, there are quite a few people who don't want to see their master successfully advance to the Nascent Soul stage. I've only just made some progress, and one after another they're already eager to jump out and take a bite out of me!"

Zhang Yu tentatively asked, "Master, does the Myriad Transformations Divine Lord know about these things?"

Magnetic Extremes True Lord's gaze sharpened, and he said calmly, "How can Feng Yuhan alone possibly sway those old fogies like True Lord Xian Yin? Even if they had ten times the courage, they wouldn't dare to compete with me head-on!"

"It's simply that someone is behind it, wanting the project to produce results but not wanting me to take too much credit, so that I can smoothly pass the God Transformation review in the future!"

"This must be the Human Tribulation of a Nascent Soul cultivator."

"This long path to Immortal Dao... the further you go, the more difficult it becomes to advance in realm, the more variables are involved, and the more complex the external factors become. It's no longer as simple as just accumulating cultivation power!"

Hearing Magnetic Extremes True Lord's sigh, Zhang Yu's heart stirred, and he vaguely understood. He asked in surprise, "Master Wan, does Myriad Transformations Divine Lord not want you to advance to the Divine Transformation stage?"

In Zhang Yu's view, the Myriad Transformations Divine Lord, as the Vice Principal, is in charge of the Ten Thousand Laws University's work in the field of Immortal Dao Technique research!

Although he doesn't directly participate in the specific management of the various departments, he is a great supporter of the Magnetic Extremes True Lord department and other teachers in the Artifact Crafting Department!

Magnetic Extremes True Lord said calmly, "If Nectar Divine Lord comes to deal with us, Myriad Transformations Divine Lord will naturally step in to protect us!"

"But if I want to advance to the Nascent Soul stage, then competition between him and me will be inevitable!"

"Especially, it went from me working for him and making money for him to me being his rival, sharing the profits with him. Which would you choose?"

"If I become a Nascent Soul cultivator, how much will the resources controlled by the Ten Thousand Laws University increase? Including the extra share I'll receive, whether the Myriad Transformations Divine Lord gains or loses directly determines whether he supports or doesn't support my achievement of becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator!"

Hearing this, Zhang Yu couldn't help but look at Magnetic Extremes True Lord and think to himself, "Master, you'd better step up your game and advance to the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible!"

Magnetic Extremes True Lord continued, "I will resolve the trouble caused by Xianyin and the others within one or two months at most!"

As he spoke, Magnetic Extremes True Lord patted Zhang Yu's head and said, "Good disciple, during this period you should cooperate with them temporarily, lest they say that you and I are not cooperating with the project team, and that would give them something to say!"

"I will make it up to you later for the time you wasted!"

Zhang Yu believed that if Magnetic Extremes True Lord had promised compensation, he would definitely make it up to him in the future!

The problem is that if you miss your Military Certificate, you'll miss a year, and then you'll miss the next Top Ten League!

When the Magnetic Extremes True Lord advances to the Nascent Soul stage, will he be compensated with an opportunity to compete for a Immortal Sect Technique Selection?

However, Zhang Yu also understood that he couldn't voice his thoughts. Even if he did, no one would believe that he had a chance to participate in the competition for Immortal Sect Technique in the Top Ten League. It would only create more conflict for him!

"Feng Yuhan has the support of the Myriad Transformations Divine Lord behind him. Everything he is doing now is in line with the grand scheme of hindering his Master from achieving the Divine Transformation stage!"

It seems unrealistic to expect to confront Feng Yuhan head-on within the University City!

To deal with someone supported by a Deity Transformation Divine Lord within the University City, whose actions were both reasonable and lawful, even his Master, Magnetic Extremes True Lord, would be constrained and unable to exert his full strength, let alone him, a mere Foundation Establishment Realm student. However, having grasped this point, Zhang Yu had no intention of giving up!

"My advantage lies in the fact that I have channels that even my Master doesn't have, and another angle from which I can deal with Feng Yuhan!"

Although Feng Yuhan is very strong, he is even stronger on his home turf in the University City!

"But if we look at it from another angle, he might be quite weak, and even weaker here in the University City!"

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "For example... if he really joined the Demon Cult, or even became a follower of the Evil God, it would be easier for me to deal with Feng Yuhan than for my Master. Would he be like that?"

Fu Ji snorted and said, "A guy who works in the Research Department and management, his achievements in Immortal Dao Technique are probably Nascent Soul to most of the Nascent Soul cultivators in the University City!"

"How much fighting power would such a guy have left after the Spirit Realm Severance?"

"If we were to guide the Evil God to send out its main force to deal with him, only for him to fight and withstand the attack all by himself, what do you think are the chances of that happening?"

Fu Ji spoke eloquently, "However, simply dealing with him, even if you kill him, will be useless. After all, this scheme was set up by the Deity Transformation Divine Lord. If Feng Yuhan is gone, someone else will take his place!"

"You need to find a way to get him to help you!"

After thinking for a while, Zhang Yu frowned and asked, "How can I get him to help me?"

Fu Ji laughed upon hearing this, "I'm the best at messing with Evil God gods, so just listen to me!"

"Let's start with a show of force to intimidate them and make them afraid!"

"However, you must be careful to conceal your intentions..."

In the dormitory!

Zhang Yu looked at Zhang Pianpian and said, "Senior, could you help me look into this Feng Yuhan?"

As he spoke, Zhang Yu glanced at Zhang Pianpian Pianpian's 5th place ranking in the Talisman Department and couldn't help but feel a hint of envy in his eyes!

Since returning from the Top Ten League, their department ranking has risen from 10th to 5th, and their overall school ranking has reached 26th!

Upon hearing Zhang Yu's words, Zhang Pianpian asked curiously, "What's wrong with Feng Yuhan?"

Zhang Yu briefly explained the changes to the project and the increased workload, and Zhang Pianpian shook her head. "Although Feng Yuhan is targeting you and your apprentice, he is following procedures. There might be higher-ups at the school behind him!"

"Investigating him... probably won't be of much use!"
