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

Chapter 615 I Will Place Dao Qiankun on the Throne
Facing the cameras of numerous reporters, Zhang Yu said, "I owe my success today to the excellent learning environment provided by Wanfa University, and to the school leaders for providing opportunities to earn money. At Wanfa University, everyone can earn money and everyone has a chance to work overtime."

"I also want to thank my teacher, Magnetism True Lord. Participating in her Yin Qi project greatly helped my cultivation. Without her, I would not have achieved what I have today."

"I am grateful to my former professor in the Civil Engineering Department, Aoki Shinkun. It was under his guidance that I laid a solid foundation in civil engineering, which enabled me to flexibly apply intelligent buildings on the battlefield."

"I also want to thank my high school teacher, Master Xinghuo, who helped me develop my academic plan and establish my Daoist heart..."

Another reporter asked, "Zhang Yu, what do you think of your ranking in the advertising bids for the next event?"

Zhang Yu was slightly taken aback, a look of confusion on his face.

Dao Qiankun, who was standing nearby, sent him a message, explaining to Zhang Yu what this ranking was all about.

The reporter asked, "Your advertising rates have risen to third place, only behind Dao Qiankun and Kuang Tianqing. Do you have anything to say about this?"

Zhang Yu said, "I will follow the arrangements made by the school and teachers."

Another reporter asked, "Zhang Yu! Is there anything you want to say to Kuang Tianqing?"

Zhang Yu smiled and said, "Don't run away next time you see me."

After another round of questions, a reporter finally asked, "Zhang Yu, who do you think will be the champion this time?"

Zhang Yu took a deep breath and said with a serious and determined expression, "Wanfa University will definitely win the championship of this Top Ten League!"

"I will help Senior Dao Qiankun win first place."

"I want to place him on the throne of the top ten universities!"

……

crackle.

With a loud bang, the air was slightly crushed by Kuang Tianqing's hand.

And in her eyes, Zhang Yu's interview video was playing.

Xue Yueshi, the second-ranked student from Tianmo University, was a woman. Hearing the commotion, she looked at Kuang Tianqing and asked, "What's wrong?"

Kuang Tianqing said coldly, "It's nothing. I'm recording Zhang Yu's interview video and putting it into my archive."

Another student standing nearby asked curiously, "What is an archive?"

Xue Yueshi casually said, "Senior Kuang Tianqing is rather petty. He records everyone who has offended her, and even stores the specific information and data about the offense."

Kuang Tianqing looked at the names Dao Qiankun, Zhang Yu, and others in the archives and said coldly, "I told you this isn't about being petty."

"This is a practice that existed in ancient times."

“By recording the hatred and resentment in your heart, reviewing them frequently, and supplementing them with special mental techniques, you can temper your Dao heart.”

"This is the 'Hate Heart Technique,' which emphasizes using hatred to refine the heart. After all, hatred is far more enduring and powerful than other emotions or thoughts."

Kuang Tianqing looked at his teammates and explained, "Although many ancient immortal techniques have been phased out, many of their mental cultivation methods still have merit. Don't underestimate them."

The student who had just asked the question secretly messaged Xueyueshi: "Senior, isn't that just petty?" [Facepalm]

Snow Moon Eclipse: Stop talking! [Shh] If you say anything more, she'll hold a grudge against you too.
Snow Moon Eclipse: Don't think that just because you're a woman she can't eat you.

Snow Moon Eclipse: After mastering the technology of White Bone University, this guy can now cultivate both Yin and Yang, and is effective against both men and women.
……

Meanwhile, as the competition ended, Zhang Yu's interview was transformed into various videos and texts, spreading to countless places.

Of course, Zhang Yu himself was the first to be watching.

While Zhang Yu was watching his interview video, Zhao Tianxing and the other soul cultivators also became excited.

Zhao Tianxing sent the video to his fellow villagers' group chat, circled the sword box not far behind Zhang Yu, and said: "Did you see the sword box? I was in it at the time."

Mo Tianyi was repeatedly reading the notification sent by the school, which read: Congratulations to our students Zhao Tianxing and Mo Tianyi for achieving excellent results in the Top Ten League, competing against students from the top ten universities...

Hu Yuntao received a message from Xiong Wenwu, who asked: "Could you ask Mr. Zhang if he needs a mount?"
As Che Yufei read the messages from his classmates, feeling their envy and jealousy, he couldn't help but sigh: "Compared to my previous backbreaking work on construction sites... working as a soul cultivator under Boss Zhang might have a brighter future. Could this be considered a blessing in disguise?"

……

At the construction site of Wanfa University.

Shi Huaiyu burst into laughter: "Zhang Yu will be famous all over the world now! Our company is definitely going to be a hit! And Civil Engineering, and Wanfa, right..."

As if remembering something, Shi Huaiyu quickly manipulated his eyeballs to connect to stock and cryptocurrency platforms.

"It really went up!" Shi Huaiyu thought excitedly, "I'm so glad I bought it!"

Xiao Qingxuan thought to himself, "Is he going to put Dao Qiankun on the throne? The Zhang Yu I know doesn't seem like the kind of person who would say such a thing."

Yingxin asked her grandfather: "Didn't Mr. Zhang use our family's ashes?"
Yingxin: Grandpa, please think carefully, is there any ashes left? I'll scrape out some more and send it to Boss Zhang.
As Yu Xinghan watched the segment about Xinghuo Zhenren in Zhang Yu's interview, he sighed inwardly, "Master, your name has truly spread throughout the university world this time."

He sent a message to Li Xuelian: Senior sister, did you see this?

Shi Yunxiang sent Zhang Yu's grades back to the demon descendants' family group chat, saying: "Does anyone here have such a powerful boss? So what if we discriminate against demon descendants? Do you understand the inherent flaws of demon descendants? Especially some demon descendants with such poor manners, they deserve to be discriminated against."

Lion Cloud Soaring: I advise you to stop worrying about great demon descendants, ancient civilizations, and human oppression. Instead, you should think more about how many spirit coins you can earn in a month.

As Le Mulan watched Zhang Yu, who was full of vigor in the video, she recalled how he used to tutor her to earn money, and how he was dragged to the teacher's office to get juice in order to help his classmates through the economic crisis... Now, however, he was able to resist Kuang Tianqing's devouring and swallowed him whole.

Knowing that this person was their colleague and boss, Le Mulan, along with Shi Huaiyu, Ying Xin, Shi Yunxiang, and other company employees, couldn't help but feel a surge of fighting spirit, a confidence and anticipation for the future. ...

Within the Civil Engineering Department of Vanfa University.

Feng Tingting thought to herself, "So it turns out that Magnetism True Monarch and Director Gao had been cultivating Zhang Yu's dual skills in civil engineering and weapon crafting all along."

"So, does that mean I wasn't relegated to civil engineering, but rather that I'm being given high hopes?"

"Does the director hope that I, like Zhang Yu, can work in both weapon crafting and civil engineering, using weapon crafting to empower civil engineering and create new value?"

The more Feng Tingting watched Zhang Yu's live stream, the more she felt there was potential in it.

Meanwhile, Mo Shangjin, a first-year graduate student, listened to Zhang Yu's words of thanks and sighed in his heart, "Teacher, I was wrong."

"I originally thought that you were incapable of protecting Zhang Yu and keeping top talents in the Department of Civil Engineering, and could only helplessly watch Zhang Yu be transferred to the Department of Weapon Forging."

"But now I understand, why should a true civil engineer stay in the civil engineering field?"

“Zhang Yu went to the weapon crafting department, and he can still carry forward the spirit of civil engineering, and even bring greater benefits to civil engineering.”

At this moment, Mo Shangjin couldn't help but admire Director Gao's foresight.

He suddenly made up his mind: "I'm not going to take this postgraduate program in civil engineering that I was recommended for...".

"I want to rely on my own abilities to transfer to the graduate program of weapon crafting!"

Gongshu Jin, who was teaching, saw Tu Lishan suddenly stop lecturing and then said, "Classmates, I have some good news to share. Zhang Yu, a student from our Civil Engineering Department, has achieved excellent results in the Top Ten League this time."

"Let's take a look at his performance on the field."

"You must remember this: the Civil Engineering Department has a bright future, especially as the intensity of the war between junior colleges and universities increases. The Civil Engineering Department has a promising future."

"Even after Zhang Yu went to the weapon crafting department, he didn't forget to continue studying civil engineering..."

……

"Can civil engineering... also achieve this level?"

In the spirit realm, Ji Yuanshu, who had always wanted to switch from the civil engineering department to the finance department, didn't have time to watch the competition as a soul cultivator.

However, he can still do it by looking at the game highlights and post-game interviews.

Watching Zhang Yu's performance and his answers in front of the camera, Ji Yuanshu couldn't help but feel a complex mix of emotions.

"Maybe I shouldn't have always wanted to switch out of civil engineering."

……

Inside a dark room.

Ping Han was working while watching the game.

As Ping Han watched Kuang Tianqing being swallowed up in a violent tremor on the screen, he felt his own world shaking violently as well.

Then he realized that the work environment was indeed constantly shaking under the intense impact of the customers.

"Both are civil engineering...both involve dual cultivation..."

"Why? Why did our endings differ so much?"

A hint of resentment flashed in Ping Han's eyes. Thinking of the orders given by the Divine Lord of the Jade Nectar, he, who had been somewhat timid, suddenly made up his mind.

"During this Top Ten League, the focus of all the gods is on the field. This may be the last chance of my life."

"For this opportunity, even if it means cooperating with Hehuan University to burn Wanfa to ashes... I would not hesitate."

……

"Master Xinghuo...Master Xinghuo..."

After watching the interview, Wang Yin kept hearing Zhang Yu's words and recalling the scenes he had experienced on the first floor of Kunxu.

"Back when I was on the first floor, I was blocked by this Master Xinghuo."

"It's that Master Xinghuo again. He taught Zhang Yu quite a lot later, didn't he?"

Reflecting on everything that had happened, Wang Yin felt increasingly that something was amiss.

"Was everything preordained?"

Wang Yin recalled many figures in history who suddenly rose to prominence and climbed their way up to the top of Kunxu. Zhang Yu now seemed somewhat similar to them.

He even had a thought that he himself found unbelievable: "Zhang Yu...could he win the championship this time?"

"How can it be……"

Although he found it strange, he still sent the idea to his mother.

Mother: The sudden rise of some people is indeed related to the higher-ups.
Mother: Every era has people like this, who suddenly rise to prominence like lightning, climb all the way up, and then disappear without a trace.

Mother: But this time, first place... is destined to be either Kuang Tianqing or Dao Qiankun.
Mother: It seems that this is one of the only two outcomes that most Nascent Soul cultivators can accept.
Mother: Anyone else who gets first place probably won't have a good ending.
