Chapter 142: #142 - Examination reform, foundation test (asking for monthly votes)

A moment later, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen had each arrived in the small cubicles of the men's and women's restrooms, then turned on their phones and clicked the confirmation button on the webpage.

Immediately afterward, the webpage flashed, revealing a Kunxu First High School student's Foundation Establishment Exam registration form.

Zhang Yu silently filled out his information, then clicked login.

Login fee: 1000 yuan. Please confirm.

Zhang Yu cursed inwardly but still clicked confirm.

Along with 1000 yuan being directly deducted from his bank account, a wave of divine power rippled through the air.

The next moment, Zhang Yu only felt his feet leave the ground as a large hole appeared in the original bathroom floor, causing his whole person to fall down.

Damn it!

After Zhang Yu's figure completely disappeared, the ground returned to normal, without a trace of Zhang Yu's presence just now.

...

Zhang Yu felt his body pass through countless indescribable things.

When he regained his senses, he found himself standing in an office, with a middle-aged woman in front of him looking at him calmly, saying, "Here to register for the Foundation Establishment Exam?"

Zhang Yu sensed a faint trace of divine power on the other party's body, thinking, "A human? Or a god?"

Seeing Zhang Yu nod, the woman handed him a contract, saying, "Registration fee is 30,000, and here are the rules to be followed for the Foundation Establishment Exam."

"After paying the registration fee and signing this agreement under the witness of the Great God of Heavenly Contracts, you cannot violate the exam rules, otherwise, you will never be able to take the Foundation Establishment Certificate exam again in this lifetime."

The middle-aged woman added, "And after signing the contract, outsiders will not be able to find out that you participated in this exam."

"Also, there is no refund for withdrawing from the competition halfway."

Thinking that the registration fee was actually 30,000, Zhang Yu felt a pang in his heart.

In this way, including the train ticket and the login fee just now, his balance was only a little over 10,000 yuan.

"I wonder if Ah Zhen has enough money; if not, I'll have to take out a loan to register, right?" Sighing inwardly, Zhang Yu lowered his head and carefully read the contract.

There were many regulations in the contract, such as not disclosing any information about the specific content of this exam to the outside world, nor disclosing any information about the exam contestants, and not recording or photographing the exam site...

In addition to this, there was also a warning in the contract, which the middle-aged woman mentioned.

"The Foundation Establishment Exam is highly valued by the Heavenly Court and is held by the Ten Great Sects to select talents who can establish a foundation."

"Don't think about playing tricks or using underhanded tactics."

"Once discovered by the Eight Divisions of Righteous Gods, both candidates and related personnel will be severely punished, lightly bankrupted, and heavily cut off from the path of immortality, depriving them of all immortal potential..."

Zhang Yu nodded slightly, knowing that this was a warning to the candidates not to think about cheating or engaging in off-site elimination of competitors.

After carefully reading through the various rules and asking about a few points of confusion, Zhang Yu signed the contract under the witness of the Great God of Heavenly Contracts, and then paid the 30,000 yuan registration fee with some heartache.

After confirming that there were no problems with the contract, the middle-aged woman continued, "Alright, registration is complete. Next is the registration test."

"We need to test your foundation to screen out some of the weaker players, so as not to waste exam resources."

With that said, she stuck a candidate number, 55, on Zhang Yu's body.

Hearing what the other party said, Zhang Yu's heart sank. He had never heard Zhang Pianpian mention anything about a test during registration.

Zhang Yu asked, "Isn't today just for registration?"

The middle-aged woman said casually, "This year's Foundation Establishment Exam has been reformed, this is a new addition."

Zhang Yu complained, "Didn't you say that the first round of exams would start in August?"

"There are still two months left, I still have a lot of room to grow, I can't really test my true strength now."

The middle-aged woman said impatiently, "Are you going or not? If you're not going, I'll send you away now, but the registration fee won't be refunded."

Zhang Yu sighed helplessly, "Where is the test location?"

The middle-aged woman pointed to the door behind Zhang Yu, saying, "The test location is outside the door."

Zhang Yu opened the door and walked out. When he turned his head, he found that the door he had just opened was gone, leaving only a pure white wall.

He walked forward along the corridor and soon came to a hall.

At the end of the hall, a metal door stood there, with a group of people standing in front of the metal door, seemingly looking at something.

Zhang Yu walked a little closer and soon saw a familiar person playing with his phone.

Yu Xinghan was replying to Li Xuelian's message on his phone: Transfer me 100,000.

Li Xuelian: Are you sure you need 100,000?

Yu Xinghan: I can't disclose how the specific expenses are spent, you understand, but I need 100,000 to continue.

Li Xuelian: I understand, there's a confidentiality agreement, right.

Looking at the 100,000 yuan that Li Xuelian had sent, Yu Xinghan couldn't help but smile, "The Foundation Establishment Exam is really good."

He thought to himself, "Besides the way to save money, if you want to go further on the path of immortality, the most important thing is the way to get money. You can't go far without this."

Yu Xinghan suddenly thought of Zhang Yu: "It's a pity, Zhang Yu, although I taught you the way to save money, I can't teach you the way to get money."

"After all, you don't have a Golden Core master like me."

"You can only blame the master for being too poor to support the two of us, and can only choose the stronger one to cultivate..."

Just then, Yu Xinghan looked at the familiar person who suddenly appeared in front of him and was slightly stunned.

He rubbed his eyes and looked again, surprised, "Zhang Yu? What are you doing here?"

Zhang Yu looked at the candidate number on the other party's body and smiled slightly, "I'm here to participate in the Foundation Establishment Exam, aren't you?" Having read the rules thoroughly and consulted on the spot, Zhang Yu knew that the exam rules restricted external disclosure and external forces interfering with the exam order, but like other competitions, they did not prohibit candidates from understanding each other.

In fact, looking at this situation, Zhang Yu strongly suspected that the exam would encourage candidates to understand each other and increase the intensity of competition.

"You!" Yu Xinghan looked at Zhang Yu in some surprise, initially startled, worried that he would be discovered by acquaintances to have participated in the Foundation Establishment Exam, but quickly realized that Zhang Yu was also a candidate, and his mood relaxed, but he couldn't figure out how the other party would appear here? How could he appear here?

This is the gathering of the top high school students in the first layer, the competition of the strongest high school students, a channel that only his Golden Core disciples can understand. How could such a poor ghost come?

Although he has good talent and good grades... but after all, he is a poor ghost! Or a poor ghost whose backer, Zhang Pianpian, has left.

Just then, Bai Zhenzhen also walked to Zhang Yu's side, she patted Zhang Yu's shoulder, and looked at Yu Xinghan in surprise, saying, "Oh? You're here too?"

"How did Bai Zhenzhen come too?" Yu Xinghan even suspected that he had come to the wrong place.

Just then, a red envelope suddenly floated down and appeared at the feet of the three.

Yu Xinghan hesitated for just seconds, and Zhang Yu had already stepped on the red envelope, then squatted down and reached out to grab it...

But the red envelope was like a phantom, dissipating directly with Zhang Yu's movement.

Yu Xinghan smiled, "This red envelope looks like a fake..."

The latest novel is first published on Liuliushuba!

Zhang Yu took out his vibrating phone, and said in surprise, "1000 yuan has been directly added to my account! This red envelope is a direct transfer?"

Yu Xinghan's face stiffened, and he immediately regretted why he had hesitated just now.

Bai Zhenzhen nodded towards the front, and said, "That person is giving out red envelopes."

I saw a man with a bare upper body in front of him constantly practicing spells.

And as he practiced, from time to time a red envelope would jump out of the talisman book and fall around him.

The man's name was Ye Lingxiao, a student who, in the past half month, had neither cultivated his body, nor breathed in mana, nor tempered his Dao heart, but had been silently studying talismans.

The reason why he put most of his energy on talismans was partly because he had seen a woman's talisman and became very interested in talismans.

On the other hand, it was because his body, mana, and Dao heart had all reached their limits and did not need to spend time cultivating them. He also had absolute confidence in passing the Foundation Establishment qualification certificate.

Ye Lingxiao was considered to have the most perfect body and the most perfect bloodline among all high school students in the entire Kunxu First Layer.

This was both his self-awareness and the evaluation made by the Oasis Group.

And the talisman he was practicing now was a red envelope talisman that a woman had guided him to learn. Only by mastering this red envelope talisman could he learn the advanced goodwill talisman.

Just as he was focusing on practicing seriously, a figure suddenly came to his side and said to him, "I've picked up all your red envelopes."

Ye Lingxiao raised his head, looked at Zhang Yu in front of him, and asked in confusion, "Hmm?"

Zhang Yu said, "Are you scattering money? Why don't you just transfer it to my bank account?"

Ye Lingxiao shook his head and said, "I'm practicing the red envelope talisman, but unfortunately, I haven't been able to break through. The red envelope only has a maximum of 1000 yuan."

Zhang Yu looked at Ye Lingxiao in front of him with shining eyes, thinking that this is the top rich second generation in Kunxu? Practicing talismans is done by scattering money like this?

What Yu Xinghan, Song Hailong, me and... this good brother whose name I don't even know are the real friends.

Zhang Yu quickly patted his chest and said, "It's okay, you can use me to practice, practice as you like!"

Yu Xinghan, who was on the side, was a little admired when he saw this scene.

"It seems I was wrong, Zhang Yu's way of getting money has long been perfect, not below me."

Saying that, Yu Xinghan had already walked up with a smile: "Ah Yu, who is this good friend? Why don't you introduce him?"

"I heard you want to practice talismans? Use me to practice."

Ye Lingxiao looked at the two people in front of him strangely, and asked, "Are you sure?"

Zhang Yu: "Sure, sure!"

Yu Xinghan tried hard to push Zhang Yu away, and whispered to him, "You just picked up several thousand yuan, it's my turn now!"

Ye Lingxiao said lightly, "You two are really strange, no one has ever been willing to take my red envelope talisman, you are actually rushing to take it, don't you think the interest rate is too high?"

Hearing the amazing word interest rate, Yu Xinghan's movements gradually slowed down.

Zhang Yu asked in confusion, "Interest rate?"

Ye Lingxiao said, "The red envelope talisman is the pre-talisman of the goodwill talisman."

"Those who receive this talisman take your reserve funds in the Treasury Bank."

"You motherfucker..." Zhang Yu said angrily, "Why are you throwing this broken thing around? Do you have any public morals? Practicing such vicious things in public? What if it hits a poor person?"

"Huh? Can you still see poor people here?" Ye Lingxiao said in surprise, "I thought everyone wouldn't pick up money on the ground."

Zhang Yu was angry, he felt that he had been insulted by the other party again.

Bai Zhenzhen reminded from the side, "Yu Zi, pay back the money quickly! If you're late, there will be interest!"

Zhang Yu quickly walked to the side, turned on his phone and logged in, and immediately went to the Treasury Bank website to pay back the money.

And with Ye Lingxiao's words just now, the candidates who hadn't cared much before were now silently moving away from Ye Lingxiao, making a large circle around Ye Lingxiao instantly.

Ye Lingxiao continued to draw talismans indifferently, and soon another red envelope jumped out and landed on the ground around him.

But just then, a palm gently pinched the red envelope, but no matter how hard the palm used, how much it rubbed, the red envelope did not disappear.

This time, Ye Lingxiao's eyes showed surprise: "The red envelope talisman is ineffective against you?"
