Chapter 108 - 108 86 Filming Teaching He Dayou a Lesson Owe 3 Monthly Tickets

108: Chapter 86: Filming, Teaching He Dayou a Lesson (Owe 3 Monthly Tickets) 108: Chapter 86: Filming, Teaching He Dayou a Lesson (Owe 3 Monthly Tickets) The martial arts competition ended several days ago, and finally Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen got an ad, a group advertisement shot with other competition participants.

Walking down the street, Zhang Yu couldn’t help but ask, “Did you hear what Song Halong said yesterday?

Why did he, being the third place, get a personal ad while we only got a group ad?”

Bai Zhenzhen pouted and said, “I asked around, and the main reason seems to be…

well, it’s already been half a year since school started, and in another half year, we’ll be in the second year of high school.”

“They’re afraid of us having a ‘scandal,’ so no one wants us for personal ads.”

Upon hearing Bai Zhenzhen’s response, Zhang Yu felt puzzled, “Scandal?

How could we have a scandal?

Are they worried we’ll mess around with fans?”

Bai Zhenzhen rolled her eyes at Zhang Yu and said matter-of-factly, “What nonsense are you talking about?

Messing with fans is nothing like a scandal.

They’re worried that our grades will seriously decline when we enter the second year, after all, we’re poor.”

Zhang Yu immediately understood; for the top students of Kunxu, a scandal means grades dropping, makes sense.

But then he got irritated, “Does being poor necessarily mean our grades will drop in the second year?”

“We’re already poor enough, and yet it’s harder for us to earn money compared to someone rich like Song Halong; he can get personal ads, but we can’t.”

“By the way, why were we chosen to shoot the group ad?

Don’t they fear us having a ‘scandal’?”

Bai Zhenzhen looked at Zhang Yu as if he were an idiot, “Are you dumb?

In a group ad, if we have a ‘scandal,’ they can just cut us out, right?”

Over half an hour later, the two arrived at a photo studio and saw many familiar faces from the three major high schools already present.

But at this moment, these people were all more or less glancing at a boy, a young man surrounded by more than ten staff members.

Bai Zhenzhen curiously asked, “Who is that?

Quite a scene he has.”

Zhang Yu was also curious, “Isn’t this supposed to be a group ad for the top eight in the martial arts competition?

This person doesn’t seem to be part of it.”

Lian Tianji appeared from behind them and said, “That’s Yu Xinghan, a closed disciple of Master Xinghuo found in another city, and he should be transferring to White Dragon High School soon.”

Looking at the young man like a star surrounded by assistants, makeup artists, directors…

Bai Zhenzhen’s eyes twinkled, “Master Xinghuo?

You mean the refined Golden Core?”

Lian Tianji nodded, “According to Master Xinghuo, this Yu Xinghan will inherit all his teachings and fortune, the future top scorer in the college entrance exam for Songyang City.”

“Because of the title of a Golden Core disciple and such high praise, he was brought in by the Immortal Rhythm Group to shoot the ad.”

“Look at Song Halong, hehe…

his eyes are almost shooting out sparks, after all, this Yu Xinghan is transferring to White Dragon High School, and will surely compete with Song Halong for the top spot in the grade.”

Zhang Yu looked at Song Halong and felt as if he was seeing a startled tabby cat, arching its back and flaring its fur, staring intently at Yu Xinghan.

Zhang Yu’s eyes flashed, and he suddenly said, “Then in the next competition, will Yu Xinghan also participate?”

Lian Tianji nodded, “Of course, in the next sports competition, this person will be a strong contender for the championship.” His gaze towards Yu Xinghan also revealed a hint of challenging fighting spirit.

While Lian Tianji was talking with Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen,

a gaze quietly landed on their position.

The owner of the gaze was none other than Le Mulan from Purple Cloud High School.

Originally, Le Mulan had no interest in this kind of advertisement shoot, but first, she was curious about the Golden Core disciple Yu Xinghan who was also participating.

Secondly, it was because of those two unique poor participants in the competition, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen.

While watching them, Le Mulan thought to herself, “I’ve been looking at his Moments photos every day recently, and it doesn’t make me feel as disgusted as before, might as well take this opportunity to get closer.”

But thinking about approaching Zhang Yu, Le Mulan couldn’t help but recall the scene of him drenched with hot, dirty blood sitting on her, causing a shiver of goosebumps to run down her spine.

“Forget it, start with the easiest first.”

“Anyway, during the actual shoot later, we’ll have to get close to them.”

So Le Mulan quietly observed the two, her eyes constantly wandering in their direction.

…

The next filming content involved all the competition participants recommending the Immortal Rhythm Group’s tutoring services.

During filming, many people found opportunities to get close to Yu Xinghan, adding him as a friend, making Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen truly feel the heat of being a Golden Core disciple.

As for the central position of the entire ad, it was completely taken by Yu Xinghan, surrounded by other competition contestants like green leaves around a blooming flower.

Still, competitors like Zhang Yu, Le Mulan, and Song Halong, who were among the top three, were like leaves next to the flower, while fourth-ranked Bai Zhenzhen was the stem beneath those leaves, and those ranked even lower like Lian Tianji were the dirt beneath the flower.

The director mentioned that when the ad airs, the words ‘Golden Core True Man’s Final Disciple’ would fill the entire screen, clearly making him the absolute star…

During the shoot, Zhang Yu sensed Le Mulan acting a bit strange beside him, sometimes taking deep breaths, other times trembling slightly, prompting him to finally ask, “What are you doing?”

Seeing Zhang Yu turn his head towards her, Le Mulan involuntarily took a step back, “You…

I’m fine, you don’t need to worry.”

Zhang Yu cursed under his breath, thinking she was crazy, and ignored her.

Le Mulan covered her nose, thinking to herself, “The smell on him is terrible…

is this what mom said, the subway smell on poor people?”

“Yeah, coming here was the right choice; I’m gradually getting used to it.”

After spending four hours filming, Zhang Yu received 30,000 yuan and Bai Zhenzhen received 8,000 yuan, and they each went home.

However, not long after arriving home, Zhang Yu’s newly acquired 30,000 yuan turned into a Primordial Pill, which he swallowed down in one gulp.

Feeling the violent medicinal power coursing through his body, Zhang Yu immediately seized the moment to cultivate Red Marrow Primordial Qi.

As the Primordial Pill’s power spread throughout his limbs and bones, Zhang Yu felt that his muscles, organs, and even bones, like parched land receiving sweet rain, crazily absorbed the medicinal power during his cultivation of the Red Marrow Primordial Qi.

After half an hour, the strength finally dissipated within his body.

But Zhang Yu knew it wasn’t really gone; it had temporarily been absorbed by his muscles, organs, and bones.

Currently, even though Zhang Yu didn’t feel any significant increase in physical strength, he felt full of energy, as if he had endless strength.

He knew that in the following days, this absorbed power would continue to take effect, enhancing his training results during his cultivation of Red Marrow Primordial Qi and further increasing his physical strength.

At this point, he was eager to continue cultivating the Red Marrow Primordial Qi.

The whole night passed as Zhang Yu tirelessly practiced the Red Marrow Primordial Qi, virtually training until exhaustion before collapsing and getting up to continue whenever the Ritual prompted him.

Under such extreme training conditions, his physical strength rapidly advanced from level 1.67 to level 1.70.

“Good elixir, really a good elixir, expensive for a reason indeed.”

…

So in the following days, Zhang Yu used every moment to continuously practice Red Marrow Primordial Qi, attempting to increase his physical strength as much as possible before the medicinal power fully dissipated.

Sometimes, Zhang Yu couldn’t help but marvel, “Kunxu, you’ve really turned me into a workaholic; I’ve pushed myself so hard that I haven’t heard the Ritual’s complaints for three days straight.”

And during this training process, Zhang Yu could feel his body gradually strengthening, bit by bit, all the time.

“After all, executing 10th-level Red Marrow Primordial Qi to its full potential is something generally expected from top-grade students in their third year of high school.”

“But now, I’m using it to boost my 1.7 physical strength, like a high-level player returning to a novice village to level up, truly advancing vigorously.”

In just three days, as the medicinal power was exhausted and his physical strength continuously increased, he went from level 1.70 to 1.87.

At this moment, standing in class, feeling the medicinal force fully drained, Zhang Yu sighed and felt a growing hunger for money.

“In Kunxu…

it’s truly impossible without money.”

While he was pondering, the voice of combat class teacher Lei Jun interrupted Zhang Yu’s train of thought.

“Zhang Yu, He Dayou, you two pair up for sparring.”

Zhang Yu was slightly surprised; normally, during combat class, he was almost always paired with Bai Zhenzhen.

Why was he suddenly teamed up with He Dayou?

A king battling a stubborn bronze?

What’s Old Lei’s intention?

Lei Jun’s intention was simple: he hoped that Zhang Yu would teach He Dayou a lesson, as He Dayou had been acting too arrogant in combat class lately.

“Relying on his suddenly increased physical strength to bull rush, he completely disregards the combat techniques I teach.”

So Lei Jun assigned his top student, Zhang Yu, planning to show the importance of combat skills and martial techniques.

He Dayou approached Zhang Yu with a sullen face, thinking, “With the implantation and adaptation training I’ve undergone, my physical strength should now be far superior to Zhang Yu’s.

But this guy’s combat ability is top-notch…”

As He Dayou was contemplating, he saw Zhang Yu’s palm coming at him.

He reflexively blocked with his hand, only to find Zhang Yu grabbing it and locking into a test of strength.

“What!” He Dayou was initially shocked, then thrilled, “You’re actually daring enough to test your strength against me now?”

He Dayou used his other hand to forcefully grab at the opponent, and soon both their hands were locked together, their mana clashing, unleashing their inner strength.

He Dayou let out a loud roar, intending to lift Zhang Yu and throw him out of the bounds.

But the next moment, He Dayou felt Zhang Yu’s hands as firm as rock, resisting his exertion without budging an inch.
