You dare to cultivate without money?!
Chapter 150 - 150 123 Great Sun Qi Sea

150: Chapter 123 Great Sun Qi Sea 150: Chapter 123 Great Sun Qi Sea Zhang Pianpian continued, “Hearing this, you should understand that your time is extremely tight.”

“Of course, even if you fail this time, you can try again next year.”

According to Zhang Pianpian, the high school Foundation Establishment Qualification Certificate exam starts in mid-June each year, with results coming out in early January the following year.

This means that for each batch of high school students, there are two opportunities in total during their three years of high school.

The first opportunity is to register at the end of the first year, and obtain the Foundation Establishment Certificate in the second year.

The second chance is to register at the end of the second year and get the Foundation Establishment Certificate in the third year.

And in Zhang Yu’s mind, the voice of the Evil God echoed: “Although getting the Foundation Certificate in the second year and getting it in the third year is essentially the same, the quality is clearly different.

Written in your resume, the treatment in university will surely have its disparities…”

Even without the Evil God stating, Zhang Yu could naturally guess this point.

“Given Kunxu’s nature, obtaining the Foundation Certificate in the third year and the second year, by the time university comes around…

it’s almost like the difference between the White Dragon people and the Songyang people.”

How to choose between White Dragon people and Songyang people?

If there was a choice, even the son of the college board member, He Dayou, would likely directly go for the White Dragon.

Faced with an opportunity where just a little effort could transform him into a White Dragon person on the second level, how could Zhang Yu let it pass?

He nodded towards Zhang Pianpian, “We definitely need to try both opportunities.

It’s best to get the Foundation Establishment Qualification Certificate as early as possible.”

Zhang Pianpian continued, “It’s good that you’re clear on this yourselves.

Besides, there’s also the choice of exam specialization, along with some arrangements I have for you before I leave…”

Because there are only four spots in total for the Foundation Certificate exam, one each for Dao Heart, Mana, Physical Education, and Martial Arts, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen definitely need to develop in different directions.

Bai Zhenzhen, with the aid of her Spirit Root, progresses rapidly in Mana, Physical Education, and Martial Arts.

However, considering her innate talent in Martial Arts has always been the strongest under the True Spirit Root’s boost, she eventually chose the Martial Arts path.

And Zhang Yu, with the assistance of Yu Shu and True Spirit Root, is also confident in Mana, Physical Education, and Martial Arts.

But considering Bai Zhenzhen has already chosen Martial Arts, the choices left for him are only Mana and Physical Education.

“Then, naturally, I’ll choose Physical Education.

After all, during this period, my progress in physical strength for the sports competition preparation has completely surpassed my Mana.

Continuing to sprint forward aggressively in physical strength, becoming the strongest in the Kunxu 1st Floor high schoolers in sports…

is not impossible.”

After Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen respectively determined their exam directions, Zhang Pianpian continued, “You have tight schedules, heavy tasks, and not much financial resources, so remember not to waste the prize money and endorsement fees recklessly when they come.”

“For example, paying off a loan in one go is a no-go.

Not only should you not repay, if possible, consider borrowing a bit more.”

“In the next 8 months, spend every penny on enhancing your capabilities.”

“Before I leave, I’ll also try to cover for you, making more time for you to become stronger.”

“I’ll be waiting for you at Wanfa University.”

…

Morning.

Songyang High School.

Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen dragged their exhausted bodies slowly towards the school gate.

The sports competition last night already took a massive toll on their physical strength.

After the competition, they also discussed the Foundation Establishment Qualification Certificate issues with Zhang Pianpian.

After she left, they didn’t rest, but started planning their upcoming training plans.

After all, to successfully pass the Foundation Qualification Certificate exam and beat other competitors, relying on the first-year courses in Songyang High School is definitely not enough.

They need a training plan that is more suitable, more aggressive, and more effective for themselves.

Like how to spend money next, which cultivation techniques to practice, which pharmaceuticals to use, and some expenses related to the exam…

all need to be calculated and planned carefully.

At this moment, Bai Zhenzhen suddenly widened her eyes at the screen above the school gate.

“Congratulations to Zhang Yu for winning the first prize in Songyang City’s sports competition.

Zhang Yu, with extraordinary talent and exceptional potential, overcame material conditions with such peerless aptitude; he is destined to achieve even greater accomplishments in the future…”

Bai Zhenzhen looked at the scrolling praise filled with chapters of accolades for Zhang Yu’s unique talents, almost filling the entire screen.

After reading it, she was stunned, “What about me?

Why wasn’t I mentioned?”

Even being the fifth in the sports competition, I’m not even qualified to be mentioned?

But Zhang Yu beside her just felt cold and angry looking at that composition on the screen, unable to feel any joy.

If it were his younger self a few months ago, he would have loved this self-praising article.

But now, seeing all the gifted, high-potential praises…

he only felt his commercial value had been devalued.

Who in the family understands, taking first place yet being said to rely purely on talent—how malicious can the world get against geniuses?

“Who the heck wrote this article?

Can someone take it down?”

Later, Zhang Yu found out that the student council had arranged the article.

He immediately understood, “Is Zhou Chechen also trying to undermine my commercial value?”

“Is he in cahoots with that Le Jingchen from Purple Cloud?”

Recalling how Zhou Chechen and Lanling had once come to warn him during the competition, Zhang Yu became increasingly suspicious that these two had allied with Purple Cloud High School or Purple Cloud Pharmaceutical.

At this moment, Zhao Tianxing on the road saw Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen, his eyes lighting up as he actively moved over.

Seeing Zhang Yu deep in thought, Zhao Tianxing curiously asked, “Yu, what are you thinking about?”

Zhang Yu sighed, “I’m thinking about how to prove I’m not a genius, just a normal person who can only improve through money.”

Zhao Tianxing was slightly stunned, is Yu hinting at me?

Zhang Yu continued, “Then I realized, proving I’m an ordinary person is far harder than proving I’m a genius.”

“My talent is like the sun, impossible to conceal…

it’s hard, really hard.”

In Zhao Tianxing’s mind, he couldn’t help but recall Zhang Yu from half a year ago, silently thinking, “Yu, I preferred the way you were half a year ago.”

“Back then, you weren’t like this, back then you were just like me, standing in front of Azhen, Qian Shen, and He Dayou, like a clown.”

Looking at Zhang Yu, who already showed a completely different face, Zhao Tianxing pondered how success can change a student, bringing even deeper insights into his poor weak clown theory.

“Clowns can transform into each other.

Half a year ago, Zhang Yu was a clown in front of He Dayou, but now He Dayou is a clown in front of Zhang Yu.”

“This is…

the clown theory of relativity.”

“Ultimately, it’s all about scores and wealth, such powers.”

Zhao Tianxing thought, if at this moment, when Zhang Yu just finished those words, I had just grabbed Zhang Yu by the neck, pinned him down so he couldn’t move, and then lightly said, ‘Oh?

Is it hard to prove?’

Zhao Tianxing secretly pondered, “If that happened, the identity of the clown would change again.”

“Sigh, wanting to stand tall and speak loudly in school really depends on strength.”

Thinking of this, Zhao Tianxing was even more determined to purchase the imitation demon muscle technology modification.

But inside the entire Songyang High School, there were many students who thought like Zhao Tianxing.

Some leaned towards imitation demon muscles, others wanted super metabolism, and a few decided to spend on the Red Tower’s True Dragon bloodline…

Zhang Yu and his friends walked into the classroom.

Once Zhang Yu sat down, he immediately continued checking various cultivation methods on his phone.

He thought to himself, “Although I intend to take the Physical Education path, focusing on enhancing my physical strength, I must also ensure that the Dao Heart and Mana do not lag behind.”

“Especially Dao Heart and Mana, I have to find alternatives for the Heavenly Martial Refining Heart Technique and Circulation Qi Gathering Method, guaranteeing that while I refine the body daily, both Dao Heart and Mana steadily increase.”

However, on the cultivation technique website, there was just an overwhelming amount of techniques.

Even going down the rankings made Zhang Yu dazzled, unsure what to choose.

At this moment, the Evil God, who had been disguising as prayer beads, suddenly spoke, “Search for Great Sun Qi Sea.”

Zhang Yu was slightly stunned but still searched for this Breathing Skill, Great Sun Qi Sea, only to discover it was a low-sales expert-level cultivation technique, suitable for Qi Refinement Middle Stage training.

The first reason for low sales was its hefty price, with usage rights costing a full 120,000.

The second reason for low sales was because it was too difficult to practice.

Especially the difficulty of practicing Great Sun Qi Sea wasn’t about understanding or practicing challenges, or high requirements.

The difficulty of the Great Sun Qi Sea lay in time.

This was a cultivation method where one could absorb sunlight to condense the essence of the sun and moon, capturing the heavenly radiance’s spirit machine to refine mana.

Looking at the introduction, Zhang Yu thought, “Like the Circulation Breathing Skill, it can passively refine Mana anywhere with light.

The stronger the light, the stronger the refining effect.”

“But this technique emphasizes gradual progression.

If the first layer takes a month of sunlight to achieve, then the second layer requires two months to break through, the third layer doubles again to need four months of sunlight to break through, and so forth, with time doubling at each layer.”

“By the eighth layer, it takes ten years to break through just one layer.”

“To go from the ninth layer to the tenth layer, it needs over twenty years.”

Seeing this, Zhang Yu sighed.

This cultivation method, even if bought, is likely used as a transitional Breathing Skill to accumulate more mana through light refinement.

“No wonder so few people bought it.”

“But it’s just right for me.”

Zhang Yu grew curious about what effect this skill, which could take decades to reach the 10th layer, would have if pushed to level 10 by himself.

Suddenly, he remembered the Evil God who made him search for the Great Sun Qi Sea, thinking that it had been following him 24/7 recently, and surely knew the most suitable cultivation method for him.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu softly asked, “It’s been such a long time, yet I still don’t know what to call you.”

The Evil God chuckled, and a clear female voice echoed in Zhang Yu’s mind, “You can just call me Fu Ji.”

“Zhang Yu, I’ve told you long ago, with my assistance, your climb up Kunxu will be much smoother.”
