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

Chapter 454 Overturning Kunlun (66)

Hearing Shi Huaiyu's question, Mo Shangjin explained, "Zhang Yu is our team's secret weapon. Before we face the other top ten, let's try to hide his strength."

"What's more, the next match will be between the King Kong University team and you in Wanfa."

"I'm afraid that the people from King Kong University were watching your match just now."

Hearing this, Zhang Yu asked curiously, "How strong is the Civil Engineering Department at King Kong University?"

“King Kong University…” Mo Shangjin thought for a moment and explained, “Their weapon-refining department is very good at processing students’ physical bodies into various magical artifacts. The trade of physical bodies on campus is also very active. Their body-refining methods are highly compatible with the magical bodies they produce.”

"For them, the physical body is very important because they can make money by diligently cultivating their physical body."

"For them, the physical body is not important, because the entire school uses the same body refinement standards and the same physical body standards, so it is very easy to switch between physical bodies and physical bodies..."

Zhang Yu then asked, "What about military-grade martial arts? How many of them have mastered them?"

Mo Shangjin said, "The military-grade martial art of the Civil Engineering Department of King Kong University is called 'The Great Sun Aspects.' I remember that someone mastered it last year."

"But that person should have graduated this year."

"There probably aren't any students in the teams you've encountered this time who have completed their training."

Su Yanyang, who was standing to the side, asked again, "Senior Mo, how long will it take for your injuries to heal?"

“We can handle ordinary colonels and colonels ourselves.”

"But if the opponent is also in the top ten, and there are military-grade forces among them, then I'm afraid they can't do without you."

Mo Shangjin said helplessly, "My physical body has been contaminated by evil energy, and it is currently being cleaned."

"This matter can't be rushed; it will take at least two more months to get it done."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu's heart stirred. He realized that it was no wonder that Mo Shangjin and another student were seriously injured, while Li Zhen was still able to participate in the competition.

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Because Li Zhen is good at controlling evil energy."

He looked at Li Zhen and asked, "Senior Li, does the evil energy martial art you practice have any effect on your body?"

Li Zhen said, "How could it not have an impact? The aging process alone will be accelerated, not to mention all kinds of occupational diseases, you won't get rid of any of them."

Su Yanyang asked in confusion, "Then why are you focusing on baleful energy?"

Li Zhen explained, "Although lifespan is reduced and total working hours are also reduced, the unit income is higher. It's like spending your lifespan earlier, or doubling the lifespan you would have in old age while you're young. What's wrong with that?"

"Besides, which construction job doesn't take a toll on your body? You can't do this job for the rest of your life. Although researching evil energy is harmful to your health, if you do well in it, you can switch to environmental protection in the future."

"The thirty-six Heavenly Qi and the seventy-two Earthly Qi are all related to environmental issues."

"The environment is a big problem. The higher the cultivation level, the greater the impact on the environment. With the advancement of immortal cultivation technology, Kunxu will definitely pay more and more attention to environmental governance in the future."

……

After finishing the competition at Jinhe University, Zhang Yu quickly returned to Wanfa University, where he continued his studies, practice, and part-time work in the days that followed.

Finally, in late December, Zhang Yu successfully pushed the "Twisting Soil into Gold" skill to level 20.

With all six of the Seven Wonders of Earth and Wood pushed to level 20, the first layer of the Reversed Kunlun in the Chain Method Diagram was finally completed.

Beginner - Overturning Kunlun (6/6): The seventh level of civil engineering has a multiplied effect on the destruction and alteration of the environment.

Seeing this effect, Zhang Yu's eyes flickered: "Changed environment?"

The next day, after arriving at the construction site on the 669th floor, he conducted some tests and roughly tested the effect of flipping over the first floor of Kunlun.

Whether it's the most basic mud and sand, the half-built reinforced concrete, or the already completed building, they all belong to the environment.

Once combined with the effect of "Reversing Kunlun", Zhang Yu's influence and range will increase dramatically, whether he uses the Lesser Three Harmonies or a single technique like "Twisting Soil into Gold".

He gently spread his five fingers, and wisps of metallic powder were drawn out of the mud and sand, turning into a small cloud of metallic mist that moved back and forth in his palm with his thoughts.

"If the Minor Three Combinations are effective, then the Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Power should also be effective tomorrow."

"In other words, if I use the Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Power, it can cause stronger and more violent changes in the area."

"In this way, I will have superb construction skills. Who in the civil engineering department can build faster than me?"

Zhang Yu felt a surge of excitement: "I'm about to reach the pinnacle of the construction site and earn an hourly wage that countless workers wouldn't even dare to dream of."

Zhang Yu secretly estimated that when that time came, the money he would earn from the construction site would probably be much more than what he was currently earning from refining weapons.

"In this way, I estimate that for a long time, I will be able to use the money I earn from the construction site to fund weapon forging."

"Sigh, it's a pity we have to wait until January."

Although he was eager to get started, Zhang Yu knew that these things couldn't be rushed, so he suppressed his excitement and continued to work diligently.

"Keep Zhang Yu calm. It's precisely at times like these that we must not rush things."

Zhang Yu silently admonished himself: "Follow the steps, keep learning, keep working, keep cultivating. Even if I learn the Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Power, it will only be the beginning." "My goal is to join one of the Ten Great Sects. Everything is still a long way off."

……

Before we knew it, it was time for the second match of the Civil Engineering Inter-School League.

The competition will be held at Wanfa University.

Jin Gang University sent a total of 6 official players and 3 substitute players.

At the entrance to the stadium, Chan Rong, the leader of the King Kong University team, looked at Zhang Yu and his six companions with a smile in his eyes.

Chan Rong said, "Is Mo Shangjin not going to appear? It seems his injury is really troublesome."

Zhang Yu asked casually, "Do you know Senior Mo?"

Chan Rong murmured, "I know him, of course I know him."

"I still remember last year when we fought Wanfa, Mo Shangjin used the Seven Absolute Dharma Body to unleash the power of the Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Force, turning the entire examination hall upside down."

"It was a devastating blow. I still remember my senior brother in the team fighting desperately with the 'Great Sun Aspects', but he was still defeated by Mo Shangjin and thrown out of the arena."

Zhang Yu glanced at Mo Shangjin's projection beside him and privately messaged him: "You were too ruthless in last year's competition, weren't you? I feel like King Kong University is holding back some fierce energy to give us a good beating."

Looking at the soaring fighting spirit emanating from the members of King Kong University, Mo Shangjin said, "Sigh, I don't know if I'll be able to play this year."

"Moreover, around that time last year, the department was bidding on tenders, so Professor Gao asked me to make a high-profile move to generate buzz for the tenders."

"Otherwise, do you think I want to use the Seven Absolute Body Techniques to unleash the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Power? That would be extremely costly, you know."

Just then, Chan Rong looked at Zhang Yu, who was having a private chat with Mo Shangjin, and seeing Zhang Yu's shifting gaze, Chan Rong said, "Is Mo Shangjin projecting here through the Spirit Realm?"

Zhang Yu was slightly taken aback, and just as he was wondering what to say, Chan Rong continued, "Mo Shangjin, last year, because of your attack, almost all of our team's magical artifacts and treasures were destroyed."

Hearing these words, Zhang Yu gasped inwardly, thinking to himself, "This is a really big grudge."

Zenrong continued, "Today, you'll see how I deal with your teammates."

Mo Shangjin frowned as he looked at Chan Rong and said, "Be careful, this guy came prepared."

……

3!

2!

1!

As the match officially began, Zen Rong soared into the sky, flames erupting from his body, making him appear like a sun high above the arena.

Chan Rong said, word by word, "Mo Shangjin, when you defeated me last year, I had already passed the military exam."

"It's a pity that my cultivation was insufficient; I had not yet mastered the Great Sun Manifestations at that time."

"If last year had been like this year, with a longer competition period and more time for me to hone my skills, we would never have lost to you."

"Today, I'll deal with your teammates first, and we'll fight again next year."

After saying that, Chan Rong clasped his hands together, and his body surged with energy, transforming into endless, blazing flames that illuminated the entire area.

At the same time, almost simultaneously with Chan Rong's actions, speech, and energy cultivation, the information about "The Great Sun's Myriad Aspects" that Mo Shangjin had once told them had already surfaced in the minds of Zhang Yu and his team.

Mo Shangjin: "The Great Sun Aspects is a martial art that condenses the Great Sun martial arts concept and combines it with the Great Sun Qi."

"Once this military-grade martial art is mastered during the Foundation Establishment stage, it will transform you into the sun in the sky, causing the temperature within a radius of a thousand meters to gradually rise. In just over ten minutes, it can burn everything within that radius."

"In addition to a gradual increase in temperature over a wide area, the Great Sun Phenomena can also cause a rapid surge in local temperature within a hundred meters."

"Just a glance, a gesture, is enough to ignite a person's passion."

"The smaller the volume of the heated space, the faster the temperature rises..."

Whether it was Zhang Yu, Xiao Yunji, Su Yanyang, or anyone else, their thinking and reaction speeds were extremely fast. They had already recalled the information about "The Great Sun's Many Aspects" almost before Chan Rong finished speaking.

However, they then began to hesitate and feel conflicted about their next choice.

The enemy has actually acquired military-grade power. Should we just surrender?
But if we surrender, should we be the first to surrender without any discussion?
Such a thought flashed through Su Yanyang's mind.

In the next instant, he used his lightning-fast reaction and thought speed to open the competition group in his eyes.

Within the competition group.

Su Yanyang: What should we do?
Xiao Yunji: If we fight to the death, we might lose all our magical remains, plus exorbitant medical bills.
Li Zhen: You can't fight like that, people will die.

Xiao Yunji: Then what do you suggest we do?
As he watched the competition group chat keep refreshing with new messages, Su Yanyang cursed inwardly, "At this point, why isn't anyone standing up to surrender? Isn't there a single person with any sense of responsibility?"
