What’s the point of cultivating immortality if you don’t have money?.

Chapter 359 Leaving the Team and Joining the New Team
Zhang Yu left the training room, feeling the condensed Xuanhuang Qi circulating throughout his body, his mind filled with various cultivation experiences related to this technique.

In just the past hour and 15 minutes, through repeated use of the Xuanhuang Zhenyue Seal... it has actually been pushed to level 2.

Zhang Yu opened the Feather Book, turned to the chapter on the Chain Law Diagram, and glanced at the Xuanhuang Zhenyue Seal.

"Is the Chain Method Set of the Xuanhuang Zhenyue Seal called 'Overturning Kunlun'?" Zhang Yu thought to himself, "It sounds pretty powerful."

Since the Xuanhuang Zhenyue Seal is one of the Seven Wonders of Earth and Wood, Zhang Yu strongly suspects that the remaining six wonders also belong to the "Overturning Kunlun" chain magic diagram set.

"If I could master the Seven Wonders of Earth and Wood, combine them into the Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Power, and add this Kunlun Overturning Set... God knows how much money I could earn on the construction site every day."

Just thinking about it made Zhang Yu feel his heart surge with excitement.

However, the Seven Arts of Earth and Wood only have seven techniques in total, while a complete set usually requires ten techniques to achieve the final effect. Zhang Yu couldn't help but wonder what the remaining three techniques were.

Then, Zhang Yu's eyes flashed, and the Great Library of Wanfa University appeared before him.

However, after searching through many martial arts techniques, civil engineering techniques, and large-scale construction techniques, he still couldn't find a single technique that belonged to this "Overturning Kunlun".

Zhang Yu couldn't help but think to himself, "Is he like the Great Sage's successor, unable to find any cultivation techniques?"

He remembered that the Great Sage's successor to the Crippled Ox Body and Mind Technique was the same. Apart from the Crippled Ox Body and Mind Technique and the Wild Ox Soul Suppression Technique, he could not find any other techniques belonging to the Great Sage's successor. It was not until he obtained the Boundless Inner Dharma Body in the Spirit Realm that he had the third technique of the Great Sage's successor.

“In this case, the three remaining techniques of Kunlun are either unrecorded black techniques, military-grade techniques, or even immortal-grade techniques that I cannot find.”

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu could only give up for the time being, realizing that overturning Kunlun and having a successor of the Great Sage were probably not things that could be easily gathered together.

"It seems that after I cultivate the Xuanhuang Zhenyue Seal to level 20, if I want to continue cultivating my skills, I will have to first develop towards the direction of the Martial Saint Body."

Zhang Yu chose the Martial Saint Body because, based on his experience with the Martial Saint Embryo during the Qi Refining stage, he believed that this Chain Law Diagram set could greatly increase the power of his cultivation techniques.

His learning goals for the second year, besides the knowledge of weapon crafting, were to learn large-scale construction techniques of civil engineering.

"It just so happens that some large-scale construction techniques can also be used to enhance the Martial Saint Body. The Martial Saint Body's effect of increasing the power of techniques can also be used to enhance the power of large-scale construction techniques."

With this in mind, Zhang Yu had already made a decision: first, he would push the Xuanhuang Zhenyue Seal to level 20, and then begin practicing large-scale construction techniques, while also gathering the Martial Saint Body.

"In this way, the University Sacred Body is used for cultivation. The Civil Engineering Sacred Body is used to withstand harsh environments and endure potent medicines. The Qi Meridian Flow is used to restore magical power, and together with the Formless Warrior, it is used for meticulous construction."

"After the Martial Saint Body is mastered, it will be used to assist in large-scale construction projects."

"In that case, my civil engineering skills will be very complete, and there will be basically no projects that I can't handle. My work efficiency and salary will also far exceed those of others."

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu felt that the civil engineering avenue beneath his feet was becoming wider and brighter.

Just after Zhang Yu left the Great Library, he found that someone had appeared in front of him at some point, and that person was Tu Lishan.

It was unclear how long he had been waiting there, but upon seeing Zhang Yu, he smiled slightly and said, "Junior brother, it seems that Master has already passed on the Xuanhuang Zhenyue Seal to you."

Zhang Yu said, "Senior brother, is there something you need from me?"

Tulishan smiled and said, "Didn't I say before that I was going to prepare a gift for you?"

"With your potential, junior brother, you'll inevitably need to study middle and high school courses in advance in the future."

"So I thought I'd get you a super membership to Yunxiu Academy."

"From now on, you can get a 8% discount when you buy textbooks and online courses at Yunxiu Academy."

Upon hearing Tu Lishan's words, Zhang Yu's eyes lit up. He did indeed need to purchase cultivation techniques and online courses, and even more than Tu Lishan had anticipated, since the number of courses in the weapon crafting department far exceeded that in the civil engineering department.

The textbooks and online courses at Wanfa University are not cheap, especially those related to the three flagship majors.

With this VIP member discount, he can really save a lot of money.

At the same time, Tu Lishan had already sent the Super Member redemption code to Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu: "Thank you, senior brother."

Seeing Zhang Yu's delighted expression, Tu Lishan felt a little smug, thinking to himself, "Zhang Yu will continue to compete with Ji Yuanshu for first place in the class. Once the competition between the two sides becomes fierce, he will inevitably start to study ahead of others."

"Although this super membership isn't expensive, it requires certain privileges to obtain, and for Zhang Yu, it's like adding wings to a tiger."

"It seems that Director Gao intends to let him try for a military certificate in the future. If he succeeds, he will become another capable member of my civil engineering department and will probably be my colleague in the future."

Thinking about this, Tu Lishan felt even more certain that it was right to win over the other party in advance.

As for Gongshu Jin? Was he the talent they wanted to cultivate? Tulishan really wasn't very familiar with the third-ranked student in the class.

Next, Tulishan asked Zhang Yu about his experience in cultivating the Xuanhuang Zhenyue Seal, shared his own cultivation experience, and then asked about the competition.

Tulishan asked, "Is Ma Xuan still making you a substitute player?"

Having received Zhang Yu's confirmation, Tu Lishan sneered and said, "It seems he's taken sides."

Seeing Zhang Yu's puzzled expression, Tu Lishan explained, "Ma Xuan is a student of Lingyue Zhenjun's faction." "Lingyue Zhenjun is the head of our Civil Engineering Department, but in recent years, because he is nearing the end of his life, he has been busy making money all day long and has not been involved in the department's affairs much anymore."

"Ma Xuan preferred to keep Ji Yuanshu on the field this time rather than let you, who is ranked higher, go. He probably sided with the peace faction."

"If you want to surpass Himeki Kaname in the overall score of the competition, you'll probably have to switch to a different team that can play."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu frowned slightly, realizing that if he continued to stay in Ma Xuan's team, he would definitely not have a chance to play. Even if the team won a place, his overall score as a substitute would be much lower than Ji Yuanshu's.

But if he leaves the team... which team should he switch to?

Just as Zhang Yu was pondering this, Tu Lishan said from the side, "I know there's another competition team that's short-handed. See if you're interested."

As he spoke, Tu Lishan sent one person's information to Zhang Yu, saying, "This is the team leader. You can add her as a friend."

So after parting ways with Tulishan, Zhang Yu added him as a friend.

The other person's name is Shi Huaiyu, a fifth-year student in the Civil Engineering Department, ranked 38th in the entire department.

Shi Huaiyu: You must be Zhang Yu, right? I've heard Teacher Tu mention you. Would you like to join our competition team?
Shi Huaiyu: Our team is strong and experienced. In this departmental competition, we aim for a top 10 finish and strive for 6th place.
Hearing these words and seeing the other person's ranking, Zhang Yu was immediately tempted.

Although he didn't participate in many training sessions while he was on Ma Xuan's team, he still gained a lot of knowledge about the competition.

In the civil engineering competition, only the top ten teams can get the overall score, and the higher the ranking, the higher the overall score.

Only the team that wins first place is eligible to represent Wanfa University in the inter-university competition.

However, let alone first place, the top five in the competition every year are basically monopolized by teams composed of students from grades 8, 9, and 10.

In the lower grades, the competition is for a top 10 ranking, aiming for a high overall score.

Zhang Yu had been watching a lot of chat logs in the competition group and knew that Ma Xuan, Ji Yuanshu and the others' goal was to secure a top 10 finish and strive for a top 9 finish.

Zhang Yu: After I join the team, will I be able to play? Or will I be a substitute?

Zhang Yu was still shaken by this situation and knew he had to ask clearly before joining the team.

Shi Huaiyu: Of course! Junior, you're so talented, how could I bear to let you sit idly on the bench?
Zhang Yu immediately decided to join Shi Huaiyu's competition team.

……

In Ma Xuan's competition group.

Ji Yuanshu noticed that Zhang Yu had left the group at some point.

Ji Yuanshu was naturally very concerned about his rival.

So he asked Ma Xuan: Has Zhang Yu left the team?
Ma Xuan: Yeah, I left the team.
Ji Yuanshu: Do you know which team he joined?
Ma Xuan: I don't know, but any team with the potential to compete for a top-ten spot would have already filled their roster.
Ma Xuan: The teams he can join now are probably not very reliable.
Ma Xuan: Actually, he might as well stay here; at least he could get some points for his overall score.

Ma Xuan: If we just add a weak team, we'll probably lose all our overall points.

Ji Yuanshu nodded slightly upon hearing this. In this way, it would be equivalent to Zhang Yu having a lower overall score at the beginning of his sophomore year, which would be a significant advantage for him.

After ending his conversation with Ma Xuan, Ji Yuanshu looked down at the coils of copper wire in front of him, and the statue in the center of the wire.

He murmured to himself, "Then let's begin... the ceremony."

……

Inside a simulated construction site.

Zhang Yu looked at the three people in front of him and exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? Just the four of us?"

Shi Huaiyu is a three-meter-tall, fair-skinned, and robust woman.

A pair of thick, muscular legs, purplish-gold in color, radiated a cold metallic luster, clearly belonging to some kind of magical remains.

But the little giant looked at Zhang Yu somewhat embarrassedly and said, "Although there are only four of us, we really..."

She pointed to herself: "Highly skilled."

He then pointed to Che Yufei and Shi Yunxiang beside him: "Experienced."

Zhang Yu sighed, realizing that he had left the team somewhat hastily.

However, he looked at the three people in front of him and saw that Shi Huaiyu, as the 38th in the entire department, was very reliable in terms of strength.

Che Yufei, a seventh-year student, has a full head of white hair and a face full of wrinkles, all typical characteristics of a civil engineering expert. This shows how high his physical development level and potential are, and he is very reliable in terms of both strength and experience.

On the other side, Shi Yunxiang is no ordinary person either. He is a fifth-year college student this year. As a demon descendant student, he has been working on various construction sites for the past five years, yet he has always emerged unscathed, without losing a single piece of flesh, which demonstrates his prowess.

"Plus me..." Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Our team is indeed quite strong, but we need to recruit two more people."
