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

Chapter 376 Throwing Zhang Yu Over (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

"After all, the number of soul cultivators is increasing every year, and soul cultivators will definitely become cheaper and cheaper in the future."

"If a university war breaks out, the number of soul cultivators will explode. Wouldn't it be a waste to sign a full-time job now?"

"Moreover, these soul cultivators are most serious about their work when they compete with each other while working as temporary workers."

Su Yanyang is very rich, but he has never been a generous person.

He believed that the more money a person had, the more they should save money.

"Wealth is like the cultivation of immortality. The higher the cultivation, the more severe the daily consumption. Wealth and power will radiate to the poor as one goes about one's actions, and gradually disappear."

"Only by reducing the loss of money and cultivation, and preventing it from being wasted on the poor, can one go further on the path to immortality."

"Even an immortal who has transcended the three loans and five insurances still strives to be a flawless true immortal. What right do I have to squander money?"

……

At the same time, increasingly fierce winds rose up outside the stadium, spinning rapidly like a tornado.

At the center of the tornado, Himegaki Kaname was enveloped in the storm, his entire body spinning and accelerating.

"Gravity is unpredictable, and it is unwise to try to fight it with force."

"The most effective way is to use speed to fight back."

"No matter how complex the changes in the gravitational field are, as long as it can pass through at high speed in a short time, the force will act on me for a very short time, and there will be no time to change my motion."

boom!
One times the speed of sound

Twice the speed of sound

Three times the speed of sound!
As Ji Yuanshu accelerated violently, his figure became faster and faster, more and more blurred, and each change in his movements brought with it a series of thunderous roars.

"almost……"

Sensing that his body had reached its acceleration limit, Ji Yuanshu flashed and sprinted into the gravity field.

The Soul-Chasing Eye instantly marks the figure in front of it and transmits the information to the Unpredictable Wind low-altitude flight component on its legs via a neural network.

With a slight adjustment to the storm around him, Ji Yuanshu moved like lightning, passing over the many students and arriving at the finish line.

One of the figures that was passed was Zhang Yu.

"Zhang Yu?"

Ji Yuanshu's heart stirred slightly, but he stopped paying attention the next moment.

"My real opponent is not him."

……

Although Zhang Yu was very fast and surpassed many of his seniors, there were always people who were faster than him and overtook him.

He didn't care about this, after all, many of the contestants were richer than him, had been training longer than him, and were naturally faster than him.

Speed ​​has never been his strong suit.

"I'll consider increasing the speed when I have more time later; I don't have time for that now."

After reaching the finish line and meeting up with Shi Huaiyu and the others, everyone looked at the time statistics and rankings.

Seeing that their team had secured 15th place, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Che Yufei said, "Now that we're in the top 20, we can move on to the next round."

At the same time, everyone understood that this ranking also meant that their team's average level in terms of speed and resistance to gravity was only around 15th.

Shi Huaiyu thought to himself, "In terms of overall strength... we are indeed a bit weaker, but judging from the training we've been doing for a while, we are not weak in terms of construction and combat."

"The chances of making it into the top ten are still quite good."

……

With the end of this round of elimination matches, the top 20 teams remained, while the rest of the players were eliminated and left the battlefield.

Above the stadium.

Looking at the data of the 20 teams, Tulishan thought to himself, "4% are peace faction, 3% are war faction, and 3% are neutral faction. We are slightly behind in terms of numbers."

"There's nothing we can do about it; the finance department approved a lot of loans for them."

Tu Lishan knew that where money is, there is fortune. With a major financial backer like the financial sector supporting him, he was not surprised by the current situation.

"But loans must eventually be repaid, while we may earn money more slowly by doing projects, it's more sustainable in the long run..."

Tu Lishan thought to himself, "Let's see how the number of people changes in the next round of 20 to 10."

"At least in terms of top-level strength, we should be stronger."

Just then, geology teacher Wei Huai showed Zhang Yu and Ji Yuanshu their grades and laughed, "Looks like working hard isn't as good as spending money."

Tu Lishan said calmly, "Ji Yuanshu has borrowed so many spirit coins, doesn't he have to repay them?"

Wei Huai said, "Who doesn't borrow money when they start out? As long as the development is fast enough, the loans in the early stages are just small amounts."

Tu Lishan said, "I'm afraid that if we don't develop fast enough, we'll end up working for loan platforms and eventually walk into a dead end."

"On the contrary, Zhang Yu has a strong physique, and working hard is the path that suits him. As his income increases, he will work harder and harder, and his future is promising."

Watching the two sides argue back and forth, both Director Gao and Director Lin remained silent, as if they hadn't heard a thing.

But the other teachers knew that Tu Lishan and Wei Huai represented Director Gao and Director Lin respectively. On the surface, they were talking about two freshmen, but in fact they were talking about the different directions chosen by the two factions.

Just then, the old director, Lingyue Zhenjun, chuckled and said, "Those with strong potential for immortality can borrow money, and those with weak potential can fight desperately. Under the rule of the ten major sects, everyone can cultivate immortality. Every student has a path to immortality under their feet. There is no dead end. Teacher Tu, you are joking."

Upon hearing Lingyue Zhenjun's words, Tulishan and Wei Huai immediately stopped arguing.

True Lord Lingyue continued, "Whether it's spirit coins or lifespan, both are resources for the immortal path. Use whichever you have more of." "If your lifespan is insufficient, use spirit coins to compensate; if you have insufficient spirit coins, use lifespan to earn more. The two complement each other and neither should be neglected. Do you two agree?"

Tulishan and Weihuai bowed and agreed.

Tu Lishan thought to himself, "This old devil, he'll side with whoever gives him the most benefits, playing the balancing act between the two factions. Now he wants money, he wants life, and he wants the position of director... Let's see how long it takes him to die of his own rage."

Lingyue Zhenjun continued, "The schedule for the second round of the elimination tournament has been drawn up. Does anyone have any further comments?"

Looking at the list of 20 to 10 contestants, Tu Lishan thought to himself, "The contestants are almost all students from the war faction and the peace faction on both sides, while the neutral faction is mixed in, with some on each side."

"The next elimination round will be a head-to-head confrontation between the two groups of students."

He glanced at Director Gao and Director Lin subconsciously, thinking that the two sides had probably reached some kind of tacit understanding in secret, which was why they made this arrangement.

……

On the field below.

Information about Yu Xinghan and others appeared in Zhang Yu's eyes.

He looked up and saw that Ying Xin, Yu Xinghan, and Gongshu Jin were all standing in the audience, waving at him.

Besides them, there were also substitutes from other teams in the stands.

In the first round of the knockout stage, the substitute players did not participate; they all waited in the stands to watch the match.

With the conclusion of the first round of elimination matches, the substitute players rejoined their respective teams.

Yu Xinghan asked curiously, "How will the second round go?"

Shi Huaiyu said, "If it's 20 to 10, it should be a random draw, with two teams in each group to determine the winner."

Shortly after she finished speaking, the competition schedule notification appeared before everyone.

Looking at the match list, Zhang Yu noticed that the battle locations for each team were arranged on different levels of simulated battlefields.

The next moment, his gaze sharpened slightly as he saw his team about to face off against Ma Xuan and Ji Yuanshu's team.

"The second round of elimination matches will officially begin in 10 minutes. Please arrive at the designated venue on time."

On the other side, Su Yanyang looked at Ma Xuan and said, "Oh? You're facing off against Shi Huaiyu's team?"

Ma Xuan smiled slightly and said, "Senior brother, it seems I'm in good luck. I'm more or less guaranteed to get into the top ten now."

Su Yanyang thought for a moment and said, "You can completely control Shi Huaiyu."

"Of the remaining five, apart from Xiao Qingxuan, the other three are old good-for-nothings, and the other is only a sophomore. They are not worth worrying about."

Ma Xuan thought to himself, "Actually, Zhang Yu, that sophomore, is still a bit troublesome."

However, he believed he already knew Zhang Yu quite well and had some methods to deal with him, so he didn't reveal them separately at this moment.

Ma Xuan asked curiously, "I've heard the rumors about Xiao Qingxuan. I usually don't bother with him, but he doesn't have to pay for things during competitions. He also takes care of his own maintenance and medical expenses. What problems could there be?"

Su Yanyang thought for a moment and said, "I've heard a story, but I don't know if it's true or not."

"It is said that the Golden Core cultivator from ancient times who possessed Xiao Qingxuan was not scared away by the debt, but instead disguised himself as Xiao Qingxuan."

"As for the real Xiao Qingxuan... he has already sold him out."

"Huh?" Ma Xuan exclaimed in surprise, "Is that so? But... after the Golden Core cultivator possessed his body, he's now in the ninth grade and only ranked 40th in the entire department? And how could he hide it from the True Lords in the department? Illegal possession should, in principle, result in the soul being punished and the physical body being sealed off. That's the proper course of action."

Su Yanyang said calmly, "I don't know if this story is true or false. But you can think about it: how could Xiao Qingxuan, burdened with such a heavy debt, still survive in Kunxu? Logically speaking, if he had even a penny on him, it would be immediately deducted, and he should be unable to move an inch."

Seeing Ma Xuan's thoughtful expression, Su Yanyang said, "It's good that you have a plan in mind."

"The key to this match is not winning or losing, but winning gracefully. We must not let Shi Huaiyu and Xiao Qingxuan exhaust us too much and affect the later matches."

"You should lead the team there right away."

……

Outside the simulated battlefield, which covers an area of ​​1 square kilometer.

The two teams that Zhang Yu and Ji Yuanshu belonged to stood facing each other.

However, compared to Shi Huaiyu's team, who were full of fighting spirit, Ma Xuan's side seemed relatively calm. However, both Cong Na and Ji Yuanshu couldn't help but glance at Xiao Qingxuan a few more times.

Then Cong Na looked at Zhang Yu and thought to herself, "Sigh, Zhang Yu would be better off staying on our team; at least he could get some points."

After the competition rules were displayed to everyone, they entered the arena according to the instructions.

Then, both sides randomly drew lots to determine the order of attack and defense.

Shi Huaiyu glanced at it and said, "We'll attack first."

"Everyone, don't be nervous. Just do it the way we did in training. There won't be any problems."

As the battle officially began, Shi Huaiyu and his six companions charged toward the enemy's position one after another.

But the next moment, accompanied by a tremor of the earth and a deafening roar, countless grains of sand and mud shot into the sky.

Ma Xuan pushed forward with his palm and said calmly, "Let's eliminate four first."

The next moment, a cloud of mud and sand swept towards Zhang Yu and the others like a tsunami.

Ma Xuan was well aware that his opponent was not as strong as his own, but he would not underestimate his opponent because of this. Instead, he would take advantage of the difference in strength to eliminate his opponent and not give him any chance.

But in the next instant, a figure shot out like a cannonball, propelled by a powerful force, breaking through the sand and dust, and streaking towards them like a meteor.

"That's... Zhang Yu?"

Ma Xuan was slightly taken aback, then his eyes narrowed slightly as he realized what was happening: "Shi Huaiyu and the others... teamed up to throw Zhang Yu over here first?"
