After hearing Bai Zhenzhen's agreement, Zhang Yu said, "I asked around, and there's still a shortage of teachers there who can teach High School Basic Skill Cultivation Method. I've been watching you practice recently, so your level in this area must be quite high, right?"

Two months ago, Bai Zhenzhen had already reached level 4 or 5 in all her High School Basic Skill.

During this period, Bai Zhenzhen, for the first time in her life, gradually released the constraints of her Spirit Root and frantically used Spirit Root for cultivation.

This also brought her an unprecedented experience. With the Spirit Root working on her 24 hours a day, it became more and more compatible with her and played an increasingly important role.

Now, she has almost reached Level 10 in all of her High School Basic Skill.

Such remarkable progress is enough to attract the attention of countless powerful individuals, and even companies.

So... should we tell Zhang Yu?

But considering that Zhang Yu had even confessed to him about the deadly business of the Dark Tutoring World, as a partner who had promised to get into one of the top ten universities together, wouldn't it be too disloyal of him to keep it a secret any longer?

"Anyway, Zhang Pianpian already knows."

"Anyway, I've been trying to see if I can lend it to Yu Zi to play with; he'll find out sooner or later anyway..."

Thinking of this, Bai Zhenzhen immediately moved closer to Zhang Yu and whispered in his ear, "I've basically mastered all the Basic Cultivation Method we learned in the first year of high school, reaching Level 10."

Although Zhang Yu already knew that A-Zhen had opened up, he was still slightly startled when he heard these words.

Then he remembered what the Wa Wa had mentioned about Spirit Root at lunch, and thought to himself, "Could it be related to the Spirit Root in A-Zhen's belly?"

When Wa Wa heard Bai Zhenzhen's words, she was shocked. "Good heavens! Where did this freak come from? Could it be that someone has also awakened his potential?"

Seeing Zhang Yu's stunned expression, Bai Zhenzhen first smiled smugly, then, with a hint of boasting, she whispered in Zhang Yu's ear, "Do you want to know how I did it?"

Zhang Yu touched his slightly itchy ear and said, "You can tell me whenever you want, or it's okay if you don't."

So what if you cheat? It's not like everyone does.

Zhang Yu then started talking about the Dark Tutoring World: "Tonight I'll ask around for you about which high school foundation courses are the most popular and which are the most in demand. You should prepare well these next few days, and I'll take you to a trial class later."

Bai Zhenzhen looked at Zhang Yu in surprise, thinking to herself, "Isn't Yu Zi even a little curious about how I managed to push the Basic Cultivation Method to Level 10 so quickly?"

Bai Zhenzhen had originally planned to tell Zhang Yu, but seeing Zhang Yu nonchalant expression, she felt like a child who wanted to show off their precious child, only to find that the adult didn't care at all, and suddenly lost all interest in showing off.

"Hmph, once I can give you my Spirit Root, let's see if you'll be begging me then."

Thinking of this, Bai Zhenzhen held her breath and went to the side to cultivate diligently.

In the following days, apart from preparing for tutoring with Bai Zhenzhen, Zhang Yu devoted most of his time to cultivating the Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi.

On this day, Zhang Yu was cultivating with Bai Zhenzhen on the rooftop, his muscles emitting low groans.

He constantly honed his muscles, internal organs, and even bones and marrow, feeling his Physical Strength gradually increase under the nourishing power of the Primordial Pill.

Zhang Yu could sense that under this kind of cultivation, it wasn't just his Physical Strength that was improving; the foundation of his body, his physical talent... all seemed to be becoming more and more robust under the infusion of the Primordial Pill.

"Although in the Kunxu First Layer, the Ten Great Sects stipulate that everyone can only truly begin Immortal Cultivation after reaching high school, otherwise it is considered illegal Immortal Cultivation and will be punished with the death penalty."

"But those rich people aren't like the original Zhang Yu, who lived to be a penniless high school freshman."

Zhang Yu now knows that the wealthy people in Songyang City start training from a young age. Although they don't actually begin Immortal Cultivation, they undergo all sorts of Transformation Surgery, tonics, dietary supplements, and various methods to enhance their potential and foundation before high school.

Even for someone like Zhao Tianxing, whose family background was much less privileged, Zhang Yu had heard him say that his parents had been giving him all sorts of tonics since elementary school.

It can be said that most of the students at Songyang High School are not like Zhang Yu in the past, who used the most natural and original physical body to cultivate Immortal Cultivation in high school.

Zhang Yu guessed in his heart, "Perhaps it is precisely because of this difference that the original owner's drug resistance was insufficient, which is why the injections caused problems with her internal organs."

During this period of cultivation using the Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi, especially after taking the Primordial Pill for training, Zhang Yu felt that his flesh and blood, internal organs, and even bone marrow and bones were gradually becoming inherently stronger.

It's no longer about getting stronger through wear and tear, like when you used to practice the Body Tempering Thirty-Six Forms.

Instead, under the combined effects of the Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi and the Primordial Pill, he felt his Qi and Blood becoming more vigorous, his digestive ability becoming stronger, his metabolism becoming stronger, and even the waste and toxins hidden in his internal organs being gradually expelled.

"If we continue to strengthen our foundation and cultivate our vitality, our physical potential will be even greater, and it will be easier to improve our Physical Strength in the future."

"Especially since my internal organs are feeling more and more comfortable... If this continues, I should be able to use more Body Tempering medicines for cultivation in the future, right?"

Just then, his phone rang. Zhang Yu answered the call and found that it was Song Hailong calling.

Song Hailong: "Zhang Yu, I'm calling to inform you and Bai Zhenzhen that all training sessions are canceled."

"Huh?" Zhang Yu Outer Dao, "Are you sure?"

Song Hailong said, "Thank you for your hard work these past few days. It has greatly improved my skills in ground combat." "But you should have also felt it, right? My Physical Strength is increasing faster and faster; you won't be able to keep up."

Zhang Yu thought to himself that he could now keep taking Primordial Pill, and that his Physical Strength would definitely catch up with Song Hailong in the future. He was about to persuade Song Hailong to continue spending money on classes.

But then Song Hailong continued, "You are excellent, but I have found a better practice partner. And my time is very limited, so I have to end our cooperation."

Zhang Yu asked curiously, "Who is it?"

He wanted to see who was stealing his business.

Song Hailong gritted his teeth and said, "Yu Xinghan."

Listening to Song Hailong's voice, Zhang Yu could almost see the other man's face contorted with rage, veins bulging on his forehead.

Song Hailong continued, "He was first in the first-year high school class in the recent Monthly Exam."

"Heh heh." Song Hailong laughed sarcastically, "He needed to find a sparring partner, and he thought I was the most suitable one for White Dragon High School, so he spent 10,000 yuan an hour to hire me as his sparring partner."

"I don't care about the money, but challenging this guy every day and gradually surpassing him is exactly what I want."

"Alright, that's enough. You should focus on your training now, so we don't miss out on the Physical Competition..."

The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

Hearing Song Hailong's words, Zhang Yu could only suppress his original intention to persuade him.

What else could he say?

Good heavens, his own employer has now become someone else's employee, and someone stronger than him is paying to fight Song Hailong. How can he compete like this?

Zhang Yu could only hang up the phone silently and tell Bai Zhenzhen the tragic news.

Bai Zhenzhen sighed upon hearing this, "Damn, our income has dropped again. It seems like tutoring at the Dark Learning Gang is inevitable. I'll prepare properly, and we'll go in a couple of days."

Bai Zhenzhen thought about how she and Zhang Yu were doing gang business and were still struggling to earn a few thousand yuan an hour for tutoring.

While challenging formidable opponents and training in real combat, Song Hailong can earn 10,000 yuan per hour.

Bai Zhenzhen couldn't help but sigh, "Damn, how come these rich people make money so easily?"

Two more days have passed.

Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen met at the agreed-upon subway station.

Under the circulation of the Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi, Zhang Yu once again transformed into the image of Teacher Ma.

He looked at the girl in front of him, whose face, arms, and neck were covered in tattoos after she took off her mask, and who had long blonde hair. He only recognized her as Bai Zhenzhen after checking her phone.

Holy crap? How did A-Zhen become Runes warrior? Or a cute young woman?

Seeing Zhang Yu's surprised expression, Bai Zhenzhen said with disdain, "Didn't you say you wanted to disguise yourself? You have the Scarlet Marrow Primordial Qi to change your body shape, so I'll just have to get some temporary tattoos, a wig, and a pad to change my appearance. I'll wash them off when I get home."

"If I wear a mask like this, no one should be able to recognize me, right?"

"And she doesn't seem like a high school student anymore, does she? Otherwise, how would she conduct the interview?"

Zhang Yu then shifted his gaze from Bai Zhenzhen's tattoos to her chest, buttocks, and shoes.

He thought to himself, "So he used padding? No wonder he looks so much bigger. Combined with the tattoo and wig, he definitely doesn't look like a high school student at all."

But thinking about the tutor interview he was going to have today, Zhang Yu subconsciously said, "With so many tattoos on your body, won't that cause problems in the tutor interview?"

Bai Zhenzhen retorted, "What gang interviewer would refuse to admit someone with a tattoo?!"

"Besides, I think this is the style of the Dark Learning Gang.' Look at the words I posted; doesn't that show my firm determination to become an illegal tutor?"

Looking at the tattoos on the other person's face, such as "The Sea of Lessons is Boundless," "Classes Every Day," and depictions of desks, chairs, classrooms, and blackboards, Zhang Yu suddenly realized that it was indeed the style he had seen in the Dark Learning Gang.

Wa Wa commented, "Based on my years of experience in the underworld, her tattoo is definitely a plus in the interview. At least in terms of appearance, she looks more like a member of the Dark Learning Gang than you. She gives off the vibe of a high school teacher who's in huge debts and is forced to sell her lessons."

"Alright then." Zhang Yu nodded and led Bai Zhenzhen, who had put her mask back on, toward the Dark Learning Gang's park.

However, because he had Bai Zhenzhen with him this time, Zhang Yu took the subway first.

After exiting the subway, considering the considerable distance still to go, Zhang Yu said, "It's still quite a long way, let me carry you."
