Chapter 279: Very Poor Talent, Relying on Background

"Wang Yin?"

Gongshu Jin always felt that the name Wang Yin was somewhat familiar.

Suddenly he remembered that he must have seen an advertisement for Oasis Group, and there seemed to be a person named Wang Yin in it.

He just glanced at it at the time and was not impressed.

When Li Xiao was talking about the matter just now, he himself was not very clear about many of the specific information and spoke vaguely.

Gongshu Jin decided to check it out himself.

After a moment, Gongshu Jin was surprised to find that he had found nothing.

"Impossible, I remember seeing the advertisement of Oasis Group..."

Suddenly, Gongshu Jin reacted: "Oh, right, I just arrived at the 2nd floor recently, and I should have seen that advertisement when I was on the 4th floor."

After thinking about it, Gongshu Jin became more and more curious about the matter, so he simply used the company's dedicated line to temporarily contact a company employee on the 4th floor and asked him to help investigate the matter.

Gongshu Jin thought, "It's a pity that my authority is still not high enough, otherwise why would I have to go through so much trouble? I can directly check the upper-level network information through the spiritual world network."

After a while, the other party got the news.

"It is true that there is such an ad, but it has basically been removed now. Even the related comments, posts and videos have been blocked, deleted and taken down one by one."

"I spent some spirit coins to find the live video you wanted."

The next moment, a video screen popped up in Gongshu Jin's eyes.

It was Zhang Yu who was riding on Wang Yin and hammering him in the face again and again.

Gongshu Jin's eyes flashed as he watched this scene, and there seemed to be something thoughtful in his eyes.

Li Xiao looked at Gongshu Jin and knew that he must be using Fahai to search for information. He quickly added, "Boss Wang was very kind to Zhang Yu, but he was stabbed in the back. Zhang Yu is just a dog that can't be tamed..."

"Hmm..." Gongshu Jin nodded, but said, "Raise him up? Why do you want to raise him up? We can make friends with him."

Gongshu Jin didn't take what Li Xiao said to heart at all.

Li Xiao, a poor guy from the first floor, didn’t do well in grades and was ranked far behind him...

To Gongshu Jin, is this also considered a human? He can only be considered a dog that looks like a human. At most, he is a dog companion, not a human friend.

Especially since Li Xiao didn't even know which level Wang Yin came from, let alone the depth of the matter.

And Gongshu Jin estimated that... even on the 2nd floor, probably only some companies that have trade relations with the 1st floor, and some people who pay more attention to the news on the 1st floor, would know that Zhang Yu defeated Wang Yin.

Zhang Yu was defeated in the battle by Wang Yin, who had abandoned his own cultivation, which showed that Zhang Yu had considerable combat power when he first started to build his foundation, but to Gongshu Jin, this was not important.

As he watched the video, he cared not about the fighting ability displayed by Zhang Yu, but the final result.

In Gongshu Jin's opinion, the fact that Zhang Yu rode on Wang Yin and knocked him unconscious, and yet he was able to come to the university's foundation-building class as if nothing had happened, showed that he had an extraordinary background.

This is the real style, the real momentum, and the real charm, which is much more awesome than unparalleled combat power, extraordinary talent, or amazing talent.

On the contrary... no matter how strong Zhang Yu's fighting ability is, or how great his talent is, he won't care. He will only estimate a price for the other party in his mind.

"We need to find a true god to investigate. Who is Zhang Yu? How could he not die on the first floor after beating Wang Yin so hard?"

While thinking this, Gongshu Jin naturally gave up his original plan to accept Zhang Yu temporarily, and instead thought about whether he could make friends with the other party.

What is a friend? To Gongshu Jin, it is someone who is either rich, has a good background, or has excellent academic performance.

"Moreover, Zhang Yu obtained the foundation-building qualification certificate in his second year of high school, a year earlier than me. However, his statistics are 20% lower than mine. It seems that he has very poor talent and relies purely on his background."

Gongshu Jin certainly could not have imagined that... after Zhang Yu obtained the foundation-building qualification certificate, he would actually delay it for a long time because he had no money to buy spiritual roots.

He thought to himself, "With this kind of talent, he won't be able to catch up with me in the future. He will even get further and further away from me. He shouldn't pose a threat to me winning first place in the class."

"On the contrary, his background might be able to help me."

Thinking of this, Gongshu Jin felt more and more that Zhang Yu was suitable to be a friend.

Li Xiao, who was standing by, didn't know so much, but from what the other party said, he could feel Gongshu Jin's affection for Zhang Yu, and he felt surprised and jealous.

Gongshu Jin came directly in front of Zhang Yu, looked at Zhang Yu and Yu Xinghan, and then used his usual way of making friends.

Without any politeness or pleasantries, Gongshu Jin decided to demonstrate his financial strength directly.

This is the rule of making friends that Gongshu Jin has followed since he was a child and it has never failed.

Generally speaking, after he demonstrates his financial strength, the rich will accept him and the poor will fawn on him.

For Gongshu Jin, wealth is like a person’s grades and rankings. It is an absolutely effective and reasonable matching mechanism that can isolate him from ineffective social interactions.

"Hello you two."

Gongshu Jin showed his back, stroked his back with his hands, and said with a chuckle, "Look at this Vajra-made spine skeleton of mine. How much do you want?"

Zhang Yu was slightly stunned, thinking: "Is this guy here to show off his wealth to me?"

Seeing Zhang Yu's silence, Li Xiao said, "At least 15 spirit coins are required, right?"

Gongshu Jin said calmly: "It cost me 20 spirit coins."

"After all, the raw material of this spine comes from the master of King Kong University. It is made from the spine that the master has cultivated through hard work."

"It would take a professional bone-selling monk a year to grow a spine of the same model again, which means that an identical spine skeleton can only be found once a year."

Zhang Yu cursed in his heart: "Damn rich guy!"

Looking at Zhang Yu who remained expressionless, Gongshu Jin thought to himself, "Could it be that he doesn't even take King Kong Xuan Zao seriously?"

Frowning slightly, Gongshu Jin said: "You two, add each other as friends." Although he only wanted to find Zhang Yu, seeing that Yu Xinghan was with the other party, Gongshu Jin thought of adding them together and testing the background of both of them at the same time.

As his friend passed by, Gongshu Jin had already used the unique ability of his eye skeleton, and the eye skeleton model of his friend appeared in his eyes.

Observing the other person's eye shape through the friend position is another of his little tricks for making friends.

"Time-Remnant Demon Eye? Such a top-notch eye?"

"This Zhang Yu... is a friend."

At this moment, Gongshu Jin knew that he was not mistaken. The Zhang Yu in front of him was definitely not an ordinary person.

"But it seems that my friend doesn't like to talk much, and he doesn't even show his eye bones. Is he the same low-key type as Ji Yuanshu?"

"But after knowing my financial resources, he should also understand that we can be friends."

"Just add me as a friend today, the rest will come in a long time."

Thinking of this, Gongshu Jin nodded towards Zhang Yu, turned around and went back without saying anything.

Li Xiao watched Zhang Yu ignore him and Gongshu Jin turned away, laughing in his heart: "Hey, Zhang Yu really has a bad temper. Has he offended Gongshu Jin too?"

At this moment, Yu Xinghan nodded: "Okay, let's add friends."

Gongshu Jin on the other side looked at the friend request that was just approved and frowned slightly: "Jihu? Still such an old style."

“This is not a friend.”

Before he knew it, Gongshu Jin silently deleted Yu Xinghan's friend.

Ji Yuanshu on the other side watched the scene coldly, thinking: "According to my investigation just now, Oasis Group seems to have already taken action against Zhang Yu."

"This Zhang Yu might be involved in the struggle between Wanfa and the Netherworld..."

"But it has nothing to do with me anyway. Civil engineering students are just passers-by to me after all. Zhang Yu is far behind me in terms of statistics alone, and he is no threat to me in terms of ranking."

"Then don't worry about it."

"I just need to concentrate on getting first place in my class for three years, then switch to finance in the future and get into the top 30 in the school."

"This is what Master arranged for me."

……

After class, everyone in the classroom dispersed in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Yu patted Yu Xinghan on the shoulder and said, "Where are you going next?"

Yu Xinghan said angrily: "Damn it! Why did Gongshu Jin delete me!"

Zhang Yu thought back to Gongshu Jin's performance and said, "You look down on us."

As the crowd dispersed, Yu Xinghan felt his eyesight was much smoother. He nodded and said, "It's normal for the fourth-floor people to look down on us first-floor people. I would look down on them too."

Yu Xinghan remembered the warning from Master Xinghuo and said, "In any case, work hard to improve your grades and ranking."

"There is no future for people like us to socialize in college."

“Only grades and rankings…are our only confidence.”

"But I have to go replace this damn eye bone first. Where are you going?"

Zhang Yu's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "I want to go to the Great Library first and exchange some skills for a look."

Zhang Yu checked the navigation to the Great Library through his eyes.

After checking, he found that the Great Library was not a place, but a website.

At the same time, Master Jiao Lei, a teacher in the foundation-building class group, sent a message.

Master Jiao Lei: [Link] This is the latest class ranking, which is arranged according to the basic data of everyone when they enter the class. The ranking will be continuously updated based on the comprehensive scores in the future. You can first take a look at where your current strength ranks in the class.

"Class ranking?"

Zhang Yu clicked on it and found that it was a ranking list for the entire second-floor campus of Wanfa University, ranging from the school-wide ranking, department ranking to class ranking.

The sub-page sent by Master Jiao Lei was the ranking list of their foundation-building class.

No. 13, Zhang Yu.

"Not bad." Zhang Yu nodded: "Let's make gradual progress from now on."

The next moment, as Zhang Yu took the initiative to connect to the large library, after confirming his identity and authority, Zhang Yu only felt the light and shadow in front of his eyes change, and countless bookshelves suddenly appeared, occupying every corner of his vision.

Row after row, endless bookshelves were projected in front of him through his eye shells.

This is the great library of Wanfa University.

As Zhang Yu tapped his fingers, rows of bookshelves were arranged into categories according to his requirements.

"The technique I'm looking for..."

Long before coming to Wanfa University, Zhang Yu had already made plans for his practice after entering university.

Especially combined with his practice experience in high school, Zhang Yu felt that the first thing he should do after entering university... should be to confirm whether there is a university holy body similar to the high school holy body in the chain diagram.

"The Holy Body of High School is very suitable for growth. If I had obtained it earlier, my cultivation in high school would have been two or three times faster."

“I hope the university also has a university eucharist.”

The next moment, as Zhang Yu's mind moved, a series of basic-level skills for the foundation-building period appeared before his eyes.
