You dare to cultivate without money?!

Chapter 369: Chapter 318: War and Peace

Upon noticing Le Mulan’s arrival, Zhang Yu couldn’t be bothered to bicker with Yu Xinghan any longer. He quickly pulled Le Mulan inside and placed the newly purchased package in front of her.

"Le Mulan, you came just in time. Can you help me check if this tonic has any issues, and if it’s genuine?"

"I can just feed you some mana."

"Um... Whoever that is... Close the door and wait outside."

Xuan Ge looked at Zhang Yu’s ranking as second in the Foundation Establishment class and smiled as he said, "Okay."

After closing the dormitory door for them, Xuan Ge stood outside, thinking that his relationship with them was improving.

From "Why are you still here" to "Close the door and wait outside."

Just waiting for it to become "Come up and lend a hand."

Thinking of this, Xuan Ge couldn’t help but grin slightly while waiting outside the door, feeling he was getting closer and closer to his goal.

"Just like this, step by step walking into this dormitory."

"I definitely need to seize the time."

Xuan Ge understood that although they were still in the Qi Refinement class, next semester they would officially transfer to the Foundation Establishment class.

By then, Le Mulan’s innate ice mana is bound to attract the attention of one Foundation Establishment student after another, and maybe then they would queue up to request dual cultivation with her.

"And then they would discover Le Mulan’s dormitory, discover here..."

Xuan Ge silently mused, "I must move into this dormitory before formally transferring next semester! Start my university life of five cultivations! Get on the fast track of the Immortal Path!"

...

Meanwhile.

Inside the dormitory, Zhang Yu placed his palm on the center of Le Mulan’s back, slowly transferring his high-quality mana.

Looking at her Taoist seed, Zhang Yu silently estimated in his heart, "To activate and replicate Le Mulan’s deep ice veins, I need to enhance her mana quality to over 150%."

"Le Mulan’s current mana quality is about 105%. With her own cultivation plus my daily mana infusion, we should be able to achieve this by the end of the semester."

On the other side, Le Mulan opened the packaging and checked the tonic Zhang Yu bought online one by one, nodding slightly, "No problem, all genuine."

"This prescription seems quite suitable for your body, helping to consolidate and nourish, enhance the base strength, and fill the gaps."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu nodded slightly, thinking having a roommate who knows medicine is pretty good; it saves him from taking many wrong paths regarding buying and using medicine, especially in the deep waters of tonics and health products.

Meanwhile, Le Mulan silently thought, "Consuming these... could also conveniently improve the quality of Yu Juice, right?"

If the Yu Juice improves in quality, Le Mulan believes both she and Zhang Yu would definitely earn more.

Especially with Zhang Yu’s courageous achievement of securing second place in the Foundation Establishment class, which has once again caught the company’s attention.

Thinking of this, to avoid drawing attention from others, she privately messaged Zhang Yu via Eye Remains.

Zhang Yu saw Le Mulan’s message appear in the Eye Remains.

Le Mulan: When are you free next?

Zhang Yu replied: In a couple of days, I’ll take some more supplements.

Le Mulan subconsciously glanced at Yu Xinghan beside her and replied: Hmm, let’s go out next time, it’s not good for Yu Xinghan to know.

Zhang Yu: I’ll find a place with no one, then take you there.

Le Mulan: You seem really keen on enhancing my mana quality?

Le Mulan could feel that Zhang Yu always seized time, opportunistically infusing her with mana.

Zhang Yu: Yes

Seeing the affirmative reply, Le Mulan pondered: "Does he dislike my current mana quality being too low?"

"Then I’ll invest more money in this going forward."

While Zhang Yu and Le Mulan were silently plotting, Yu Xinghan, who was meditating and breathing, snorted coldly in his heart.

Watching Le Mulan’s subtle glance with his Three-Eyed Divine Power, Yu Xinghan secretly thought, "These two guys, could they be secretly discussing something they don’t want me to know?"

"Really, even in the same dorm, they’re playing mind games with me."

"Wait until my video goes viral... I’ll shock them greatly."

...

While Zhang Yu was busy shuttling between classes, the construction site, and the dormitory

Director Gao was watching the report sent by the professor from the reproduction department at Sky Demon University.

Looking at Zhang Yu’s blood test results, Director Gao silently mused, "What a pity, constitution isn’t hereditary, can’t reproduce?"

"Alas, merely a genius, difficult to develop into a new batch technology."

Throughout Kunxu’s long history, geniuses have emerged one after another, and various unique physiques have appeared in different eras.

However, some physiques have been researched to reveal their mysteries and have been applied to Immortal Path technology.

Some physiques remain unsolved mysteries, and even the Immortal Path technology of the top ten universities has not unraveled their secrets.

In contrast, geniuses that cannot be mass-produced... in Director Gao’s eyes, their value is clearly far inferior to the technology that can mass-produce talents.

As for revealing the secrets of Zhang Yu’s physique...

"Even if we invested a few thousand spirit coins, we might not be able to find the results."

Director Gao understands that the human body, as the foundation of the Immortal Path, still contains many mysteries yet to be fully explored.

If not for the massive resource investment and the support of the sect, no one could guarantee that their research would yield results.

And as Deputy Director of the Civil Engineering Department, Director Gao is not an expert in physique, so naturally, he has no interest in investing in it.

At this moment, Tu Lishan’s avatar lit up in Director Gao’s magic remains.

Tu Lishan: "Director, I went to check, and Ji Yuanshu did indeed take the Finance Department’s professional course exam and scored full marks."

Director Gao snorted coldly, "Seeing that his Civil Engineering Department’s professional courses only got a passing grade, I knew this kid didn’t take these things to heart at all."

"He was taking the professional courses here while also studying the Finance Department’s courses, focusing most of his attention there."

Seeing the 27-point gap between the Foundation Establishment Class’s first place Ji Yuanshu and second place Zhang Yu, Director Gao understood this was not their true gap, but rather because Ji Yuanshu’s professional course grades were too poor, making Zhang Yu so close to him.

Tu Lishan, seeing this, also sighed inwardly, "Even if Gongshu Jin lost to Ji Yuanshu, I didn’t expect it to be by so much." 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"It seems those guys really invested a lot of resources into Ji Yuanshu."

Director Gao coldly said, "Those Peace Faction members, sending their disciples to the Finance Department, ultimately still want to move in the financial direction."

"Humph, just lying around on construction sites to earn money... isn’t enough for them, they want higher profits."

Tu Lishan said nothing, but he understood Director Gao’s meaning.

Today’s Wanfa University’s Civil Engineering Department is not a monolithic entity.

With Director Gao and many disciples of his faction, they believe that the scale of the university war will continue to expand, and military investment should be increased, actively participating in various military constructions, to make proactive changes for future market shifts.

Whereas the faction led by another director believes that university wars have always been within controllable ranges, preferring to continue investing resources in commercial real estate, and building more pharmaceutical factories to serve the upper class.

In Tu Lishan’s perception, the route dispute between both sides has become increasingly intense over the years, spreading from initial teacher competition to upper-class student competition, and even to current lower-class student competition.

Tu Lishan mused, "After all, behind these two factions are different companies, involving competition in fields such as magic remains, magic treasures, pharmaceuticals, finance, etc."

"And each year’s revenue of the department, project quality, future talent reserves... will also affect the company’s stock price."

"Even student grades and rankings at each grade level, as a reflection of future talent reserves, will also influence stock market fluctuations."

As Tu Lishan knows, a Director from the Peace Faction has already connected with a Director from the Finance Department, planning to invest a large amount of resources there.

Ji Yuanshu, as their disciple, signing to transfer to the Finance Department in the future, holds extraordinary significance.

Tu Lishan thought to himself, "Director Gao probably doesn’t want these two sides to join forces."

"But the Finance Department... sigh."

The Finance Department, as one of Wanfa University’s three major ace programs, is considered by Tu Lishan as the ace among the three aces.

"The Finance Department emphasizes the fortune of humanity, grandeur, progressing cultivation with the human tide, employing Taoist Skills."

"Wealth, resources, connections... these are also their means to guide the human tide."

In Tu Lishan’s heart, those guys in the Finance Department are incredibly keen on the trends of humanity, never making losses, always managing to hold the upper hand as trends rise and fall.

Whether it’s investing thousands or tens of thousands of spirit coins, easily reviving an industry, or a single sanction or agreement bringing a university to the brink of collapse, all are mastery over the trend of humanity, truly grand and commanding.

"Could it be that even they think the university war won’t expand, and Wanfa won’t get involved?" 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

At this moment, Director Gao suddenly asked, "Do you think in the next two years, can Gongshu Jin or Zhang Yu surpass Ji Yuanshu?"

Tu Lishan thought for a moment and then helplessly shook his head, "I’m afraid... extremely difficult."

"Indeed, it’s difficult, but we need to try even harder." Director Gao said lightly, "Let Zhang Yu come over tomorrow; I want to discuss the upcoming arrangements with him."

Tu Lishan nodded, knowing that the competition between the two big factions had already unfolded in various areas; the competition between Gongshu Jin, Zhang Yu, and Ji Yuanshu was just a part, and even if the success rate wasn’t high, they wouldn’t give up easily.

...

The next day, after receiving Tu Lishan’s notification, Zhang Yu followed Tu Lishan after school and arrived at the Civil Engineering Department’s teaching building to meet Director Gao.

Zhang Yu glanced at the four big characters on Director Gao’s robe, "Building the World," and couldn’t help but look again at his exposed hands and neck.

It’s rumored that this Director Gao has over three hundred magic remains, but Zhang Yu, upon close inspection at this moment, couldn’t see even a hint of them.

Director Gao looked at Zhang Yu and asked straightforwardly, "What is your plan for the future?"
