Chapter 407 Transforming All Laws into Divine Power, Cultivation and Medicine Testing

Hearing what Xiao Qingxuan said, Zhang Yu asked curiously, "Has the intensity of the university war increased again?"

Xiao Qingxuan nodded: "At first, it was just a few colleges and universities competing."

"Later, gradually, universities from the 72 lower-level schools began to participate."

"Recently, 36 teachers among the colonels were found to have been involved in the battle, and some students were also killed in the process."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu asked, "Senior Xiao, what do you think will happen to the Top Ten?"

Xiao Qingxuan shook his head upon hearing this.

Zhang Yu asked curiously, "You don't think so?"

Zhang Yu did not expect that Xiao Qingxuan, who belonged to the war faction, actually believed that the top ten universities would not participate in the war.
Xiao Qingxuan explained, "I don't know."

Whether or not the top ten schools will participate in the war is ultimately not something that the schools below them can decide.

"As long as all the Nascent Soul Divine Lords are determined to make peace, then no matter how the fighting below goes, even if the second, third, and fourth floors are reduced to scorched earth, the Ten Great Ones will not participate in the war."

"But what are the true thoughts of these Nascent Soul Divine Lords? Who knows?"

"Moreover, even among the Nascent Soul Divine Lords, their ideas are probably not aligned."

"Among the three principals of our Wanfa School, some probably want to fight, while others want to make peace."

"Otherwise, why would there be two factions in our Civil Engineering department?"

"The attitudes of each department are ultimately just an extension of the will of the three principals, and the choices of students and teachers are nothing more than being manipulated by the interests held hostage by the gods..."

Zhang Yu nodded repeatedly as he listened to Xiao Qingxuan's explanation.

Having been at Wanfa University for so long, he also knew that the three Nascent Soul Divine Lords of Wanfa University were currently serving as the president and vice president, respectively.

Of course, there are more than two vice presidents of Wanfa University. In addition to the two vice presidents who are Nascent Soul Divine Lords, there are also five vice presidents who are Nascent Soul True Lords, each in charge of different areas.

Zhang Yu then asked, "As for departments, I know that the School of Weapon Refining Engineering, where the Weapon Refining Department is located, is war-oriented, and the School of Economics and Management, where the Finance Department is located, is peace-oriented. What about the School of Taoist Arts, where the Taoist Arts Department is located?"

Although Zhang Yu had asked Zhang Pianpian similar questions, he was also curious about what Xiao Qingxuan knew about the situation.

Xiao Qingxuan said calmly, "The Finance Department and the Weapon Forging Department, as two of the three ace departments, basically contain most of the essence of the entire academy, which determines the attitude of the academy to which they belong."

"But the Taoist Arts Academy is quite special. In addition to the Taoist Arts Department, its flagship department, there is also the Talisman Department."

"Speaking specifically of the magic system, they are major producers, transporters, and sellers of magic power. Their idea regarding the university war is probably to create limited regional tensions to facilitate the increase in magic power prices, while avoiding a full-scale war that could lead to uncontrollable losses."

"As for the Talisman Department, although it is not the flagship department of Wanfa University, it represents the power and attitude of the righteous gods and can also influence the decisions of the entire Taoist Academy."

"But the true gods have always been bystanders in the university wars, so it's hard to say what their true thoughts are..."

As Zhang Yu and Xiao Qingxuan walked and talked, Zhang Yu discovered that although this senior was in debt, he had a deep understanding of the situation and leaders in the school. After a conversation, Zhang Yu gained a new understanding of the current situation.

Just then, Zhang Yu saw a kneeling statue and asked curiously, "What is this? Why is there a statue in the factory?"

Xiao Qingxuan frowned, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes as he looked at the statue.

After a moment of contemplation, he explained, "The work of a pharmaceutical factory operator is rather tedious. After long hours of work, it can lead to a surge in psychological stress, mental exhaustion, and mechanical alienation."

"That's when the operator committed suicide."

"But as you know, the operators are on the assembly line 24 hours a day, and each one has become part of the assembly line, closely integrated with the entire production line."

"Therefore, the suicide of operators often leads to blockages in the production line, affecting the production efficiency of pharmaceutical factories."

"To solve this problem, the pharmaceutical company added a 'happy potion' to the workers' drinking water, which can reduce stress, weaken mental state, and make them happier at work."

"At the same time, the transformation surgery for operators has been improved, enhancing their replaceability and modularizing the operator process..."

"In addition to various hardware improvements, we also erected humiliation statues for operators who committed suicide, promoted the spirit of modern workers who are ashamed of suicide, and selected model workers to enhance the factory's sense of honor among operators..."

Just as Xiao Qingxuan was introducing the relevant situation, he saw a figure appear in the spirit world projection next to him. The figure was wearing a pharmaceutical factory uniform and was moving among the operators' physical remains, conducting product quality inspection.

Seeing Zhang Yu looking at the projection of the spirit world, Xiao Qingxuan said, "This is a soul cultivator employee."

"Workers who die suddenly from overtime on the pharmaceutical factory assembly line not only do not have to pay compensation for lost wages, but can also become soul cultivators and continue to work for the pharmaceutical factory."

"You, as a student of the top ten universities, may not understand, but some junior college students see this as a good thing that guarantees a job."

Zhang Yu looked at the assembly line workers and noticed that many of them were indeed filled with longing as they looked at the projection of the soul cultivator.

Of course, many more college students were secretly observing Zhang Yu and Xiao Qingxuan; to them, these two students from Wanfa University were simply too dazzling. Meanwhile, this batch of college students on the assembly line all came from the same school, and while observing Zhang Yu and Xiao Qingxuan, they chattered about the two in their group chat.

Someone commented: "The students at Wanfa University look really rich."
Someone said: "Why even look? That's a powerful expert who owes 10000 spirit coins!"
Someone agreed, saying: "Even if you kill college students every day, it would take a long time to owe 10000 spirit coins, right? You might also have to kill a few college teachers along the way."
Someone remarked: "No wonder they're students of the University of Ten Thousand Laws; one person's debt is more than all of ours combined."

After Zhang Yu and Xiao Qingxuan toured the factory, they completed the data measurement and recording for the entire building.

Then Zhang Yu followed Xiao Qingxuan to the construction site next door, where they began to excavate the underground space and lay the foundation.

Zhang Yu struck out with his palm, unleashing the Great Wilderness Mountain-Moving Force. A visible shockwave poured out, shattering large swathes of rock.

At the same time, a series of formless warriors emerged from behind Zhang Yu and began cleaning the construction site, moving building materials, and clearing away garbage...

After the rock strata were crushed, excavated, and cleared, Zhang Yu unleashed the Heaven-Turning Seal technique, pressing down one palm after another with powerful energy to level the ground.

Seeing that the entire construction site was taking shape in the blink of an eye, Xiao Qingxuan nodded and thought to himself, "Director Gao is right, Zhang Yu is enough for this construction site."

After a moment, he looked at Zhang Yu and said, "Besides the construction work at the pharmaceutical factory, Director Gao has also found you a job testing drugs. I'll take you there in a bit."

……

Inside the office building.

Looking at the students from the 72nd Lower Division walking down the corridor, Zhang Yu asked curiously, "Are they all here to test the drugs?"

Xiao Qingxuan nodded: "College students' bodies are too weak. Some medicines can only be effective when tested by real college students."

Zhang Yu understood that college students on this second floor often didn't even qualify for drug trials.

As Zhang Yu is from Wanfa University, the threshold for participating in drug trials is naturally higher.

As Zhang Yu walked directly towards the laboratory, the students from the 72nd Lower School all showed envy.

"Foundation-level students from Wanfa University? They're here to test the drug too?"

"The drugs they tested must be really strong; their poop could probably poison us."

"What nonsense are you talking about! How could a top student from Wanfa University possibly poop?"

As soon as Zhang Yu entered the laboratory, he saw that Le Mulan was already waiting there.

Seeing Zhang Yu and Xiao Qingxuan, Le Mulan smiled and said, "Zhang Yu, my mentor asked me to come and coordinate the drug trial work with you."

Xiao Qingxuan looked at Zhang Yu beside him and said, "I'll wait for you outside. Call me anytime if you have any problems."

Xiao Qingxuan remembered Director Gao's instructions.

"Old Gao really values ​​Zhang Yu. He even asked me to come and provide him with treatment at any time so that he can take a large amount of experimental drugs to further improve his cultivation efficiency."

After Xiao Qingxuan left, Le Mulan came to Zhang Yu's side, pulled out a large syringe, and said, "This experimental drug can accelerate metabolism and improve your body refining efficiency, but it will also cause excessive mental excitement, blood congestion in the body, and problems with the circulation of magical power..."

While giving the introduction, Le Mulan skillfully injected the drug into Zhang Yu's body.

On one hand, Zhang Yu voluntarily loosened the protection of his muscles, skin, and magic; on the other hand, Le Mulan's needle penetrated the tip, demonstrating her incredibly skillful injection technique.

Zhang Yu thought to himself that Le Mulan had been doing a lot of acupuncture since high school, and her acupuncture skills were much better than his own, probably not inferior to those of students in the security department.

Indeed, Zhang Yu used students from the Security Department to compare acupuncture techniques, since these guys were known for giving the most acupuncture needles in the entire school every day, and their acupuncture skills were even better than those of medical students.

While giving Zhang Yu an injection, Le Mulan thought about what her mentor had asked her to do.

"In order to cope with the further escalation of the university war, the department has decided to develop several new drugs."

“Zhang Yu from the Civil Engineering Department is very interesting. I’ve seen his information and data from the Biology Department. I want to try to see if I can make medicine through his Qi and Blood Factors and Blood Vessel Expression.”

"Yue Jingchen said he's unwilling to sell breeding rights, right? And now he won't even sell the seeds?"

"Could you ask around for me again? I can offer a higher price."

When faced with Le Mulan's question, Zhang Yu naturally refused outright. Whether it was Fu Ji's reminder or his own thoughts, he had no interest in giving up the breeding rights.

Zhang Yu even stopped selling seeds.

He waved his hand and said, "Since I devoted myself to the path of immortality and abstained from lust for a long time, I haven't released any goods for quite some time."

"I feel great now, and I probably won't be doing this job again in the future."

But as she watched Zhang Yu's departing figure, Le Mulan recalled the way her mentor talked about Zhang Yu. She felt that her mentor hadn't said everything and didn't seem like he would give up so easily.
