You dare to cultivate without money?!
Chapter 98 - 98 77 The Most Powerful Move

98: Chapter 77 The Most Powerful Move 98: Chapter 77 The Most Powerful Move In the resting area of Purple Cloud High School.

Le Mulan had already seated herself back on Lian Tianji’s back.

She watched Bai Zhenzhen, who was hurriedly running to the arena, explaining the rights of use to the referee with Zhang Yu’s phone, and said, “Bai Zhenzhen can actually shop with Zhang Yu’s phone?

Does she know his phone password and payment password?”

“These two must be inseparable friends.”

Looking at Zhang Yu, who was slowly walking back to the resting area, Le Mulan patted Lian Tianji’s head and said, “I remember you’re friends with this Zhang Yu, right?”

…

As soon as Zhang Yu returned to the resting area, he poured all the potions he had bought before the competition to restore stamina, mana, and energy into his mouth.

Feeling the rapid recovery of his internal strength, his mind was somewhat at ease.

With half an hour of rest time given before the final by the organizers, Zhang Yu thought it was enough to restore eighty to ninety percent of his stamina and mana.

Bai Zhenzhen said nearby, “…Did you remember everything I just told you?”

Seeing Zhang Yu nod, she continued, “Then rest well and prepare for the upcoming battle.”

Shortly after Bai Zhenzhen left, Zhang Yu felt his phone vibrate slightly.

Upon checking, he found that Lian Tianji had recommended a friend to him.

“Le Mulan?”

Not understanding why Le Mulan wanted to add him, Zhang Yu just chose to accept it first.

Then, he saw a message from Le Mulan: Let’s meet, I have something I want to discuss with you.

Zhang Yu went to a less populated corridor outside the arena, where he found Le Mulan waiting for him.

This scholarly beauty from Purple Cloud High School had a frosty demeanor and was always the focus of attention wherever she went, attracting the gaze of others.

Upon seeing Zhang Yu arrive, she straightforwardly said, “Two hundred thousand, I buy your defeat, how about it?”

Zhang Yu was slightly stunned: “You want to spend money to buy the tournament championship?”

Le Mulan nonchalantly said, “Wealth is power, money is part of strength, since martial arts competitions select the strongest, why can’t I buy it with money?”

Zhang Yu stared at her and snorted, “You are not confident in beating me?”

Le Mulan shook her head: “I just think that fighting you might cost more than two hundred thousand, so using this two hundred thousand to buy a certainty seems very worthwhile.”

Seeing Zhang Yu fall silent, Le Mulan added, “Unwilling for two hundred thousand?

Then how about four hundred thousand, but that’s the most I’ll add.

If you want to raise the price again, I won’t agree.”

Zhang Yu swallowed hard, he had to admit that at this moment, the forty thousand that Le Mulan put forward was more powerful than any technique he encountered in the continuous arena battles.

Forty thousand, what kind of cultivation technique can it buy?

How long can it rent a spirit root?

How many training tools can it purchase?

And how much can it enhance in talismans?

Zhang Yu even felt that if he had this forty thousand, it would far exceed the benefits to his cultivation compared to the five thousand prize and an expert level skill of the martial arts championship.

After all, in Kunxu, as long as you have money, you have potential, you have qualifications, you can advance rapidly on the Immortal Path, even making gods serve you.

Zhang Yu said, “Alright, transfer directly to my card.”

Le Mulan spread her fingers, and a purple jade talismanic book floated in her palm: “Sign a contract with me under the witness of the True God, and I’ll transfer the money to you immediately.”

Seeing that Zhang Yu did not agree but instead fell silent, Le Mulan was surprised: “You actually hesitate at forty thousand?”

She found it very strange.

“I heard from Lian Tianji that you can be hired as a security guard for just a few hundred bucks?”

“You poor people clearly fight passionately for hundreds or thousands every day, why when forty thousand is placed right in front of you, you hesitate?”

“With your background, it’s impossible for you to get into the top ten universities, is being first in the martial arts competition really that significant?”

Le Mulan’s tone had no trace of mockery, as if she was sincerely very, very puzzled by Zhang Yu’s current behavior.

Shaking her head, she turned and left: “Since you can’t decide right away, I’ll leave for now.

But before the finals start, you can still come and take this forty thousand, but that’s the most I’ll offer, I won’t raise the price anymore.”

Watching Le Mulan walk away, Zhang Yu used his phone to ask Zhang Pianpian: Sis, if I don’t get first in the martial arts competition, just second, how much impact does it have on my chances of getting into the top ten universities?

Zhang Pianpian: The path I found for you needs you to have the best grades in your first year and the higher the competition rank, the higher the chance of being selected.

Naturally, being first in the competition is more likely to get into the top ten.

Zhang Yu understood in his heart, which meant even if he took the forty thousand, it wouldn’t mean he couldn’t get into the top ten, just that the probability would decrease a bit…

But just as the thought of agreeing with Le Mulan arose in his mind, that damned ritual began yelling at him again.

“I knew it.”

“This stupid thing is really afraid I won’t get into the top ten.”

Feeling the forty thousand drift away, Zhang Yu felt a heartache more profound than when he fought tooth and nail with Lian Tianji, more painful than when he wrestled with Song Halong with all his might.

“Is this the heartache of losing a large sum of money?”

At the moment, Zhang Yu immediately operated the Heavenly Martial Refining Heart Technique, cutting off all those distracting thoughts.

At this moment, there was only one thought left in his mind.

He wanted to knock that damned rich person Le Mulan to the ground hard in the arena.

…

As the finals commenced.

Le Mulan and Zhang Yu both stepped onto the arena.

This martial arts tournament finally reached its final stage.

Suddenly, streams of blue and white sword qi surged out from Le Mulan, slashing fiercely at Zhang Yu.

Once Le Mulan’s Star Sword Technique was executed, it flowed continuously, exuding an imposing aura, resembling strategic formations, making it difficult to break through.

Seeing Zhang Yu dodging left and right under her sword qi, occasionally resisting the sword qi with Formless Cloud Gang, Le Mulan felt like she was watching a rat scampering in fear.

“Are you trying to exhaust my mana?”

Le Mulan laughed: “Do you think you can exhaust it completely?”

The next moment, as Le Mulan’s sword qi erupted, the mana within her body became increasingly turbulent, like a rushing river, endless and unstoppable, its force had already surpassed all the contestants present.

Meanwhile, a female voice came from within her body.

“Welcome to use the Purple Cloud Rechargeable Inner Core.”

“Remaining mana value in inner core is eight million.”

Le Mulan touched her abdomen and then gazed at Zhang Yu in front of her: “The rechargeable inner core within me contains mana worth a total of eight million.”

At the same time, her wrist revealed a line of text, a number continuously decreasing from eight million.

Clearly, with her continuous eruption of mana and sword qi, the mana charged within the inner core was constantly being consumed, but it was just a drop in the bucket compared to the eight million total, still a vast distance from being depleted.

But it also indicated that each second of Le Mulan’s combat cost her thousands.

As Le Mulan lightly flicked her fingers, streams of sword qi surged toward Zhang Yu like a storm, not merely preventing him from approaching, but practically forcing him off the arena inch by inch.

“If you think my meridians can’t withstand this surging mana, then no need to worry.”

“My combat spirit root ‘Falora’ has already protected all my meridians, allowing me to maintain high mana output without worry of wear and tear.”

Meanwhile, the sight of Le Mulan recklessly using her mana on stage, a fortune of eight million used so casually, excited the audience.

This was even more admirable than Song Halong’s insurance of ten million, because that was from an insurance company, but here, Le Mulan was spending her own hard-earned money.

An audience member, admiring the way Le Mulan spent money without a care, commented: “So beautiful, the way she spends money like it’s nothing is just beautiful.”

One audience member felt pure envy: “Having money is really awesome, truly happiness.”

Another audience member had a realization: “If you want to go further on the Immortal Path, you have to spend money, today I’ll go home and earn a ton of gold coins, I must advance on the Immortal Path.”

Amidst the growing noise from the crowd, Le Mulan frowned slightly.

While unleashing sword qi, she looked at Zhang Yu and said: “Did you hear that, though they are a bit noisy, they aren’t wrong, money is the foundation of cultivation.”

“As a poor person, if you had earned those forty thousand today, you could have gotten a tiny bit closer to me.”

“Sadly, you voluntarily gave up that opportunity to become stronger.”

With a sincere expression, she asked Zhang Yu, “I’m really curious, you’re obviously so poor, why are you unwilling to make money, why is that?”

It seemed that Le Mulan asked a lot just to figure out this puzzling question she had.

Watching her sincere questioning face, Zhang Yu suddenly felt a bit amused.

Damn rich lady observing the lives of the poor, is it?

He snorted coldly: “Setting it at forty thousand, because you think at most forty thousand is needed to beat me?”

Le Mulan nodded: “Correct, I calculated, your defeat is worth at most forty thousand, spending an extra penny would be a waste.”

Meanwhile, amidst the continuous bombardment of sword qi, Formless Cloud Gang was finally breached, leaving a sword cut on Zhang Yu’s hand.

Zhang Yu calmly said, “What if you add the cost of this poor wretch’s blood?”

Blood dripped into the gang qi, dyeing the Formless Cloud Gang with streaks of crimson.

However, confronting the injury on his hand, Zhang Yu didn’t panic at all; he seemed ready, and he swung the blood on his hand forcefully towards Le Mulan’s position.

The normally unmoving Le Mulan, who always pressured her opponents with sword qi, actually shifted her footsteps slightly to deliberately avoid the thrown blood.

With Le Mulan’s evasive movement, a significant flaw appeared in her Star Sword Technique.

Zhang Yu rocketed out like lightning, attempting to breach through the layers of sword qi, closing in on Le Mulan.

Meanwhile, Zhang Yu’s mind echoed Bai Zhenzhen’s words.

…

“Le Mulan’s first flaw is that she… seems to have a cleanliness obsession.”

“I suggest you spit on her, preferably phlegm, not only will she dodge, but her sword qi will definitely avoid the spit.”
