In an apartment near Ziyun High School.
Zhang Yu was scrolling through the news on his phone, the content of which made him frown slightly: "Songyang City is becoming more and more chaotic."
During this period, although Zhang Yu was just silently teaching and cultivating every day, it didn't mean he was unaware of everything happening in the outside world.
With Bai Zhenzhen bringing back information from time to time, coupled with the changes in various news and public opinions on the Internet, he gradually confirmed a fact.
That is, in addition to the increasingly fierce fighting in the dark tutoring world, which even attracted the company to intervene, similar phenomena have occurred in other fields.
For example, Zhang Yu encountered more discounts on shopping platforms and food delivery platforms, and received more coupons. This was a price war between companies.
But Zhang Yu also found that many things he liked, and even frequently used websites, were reported and taken down. This was a reporting war between companies.
There were also various negative reviews of products and cultivation methods pouring in. The ratings of cultivation methods went up and down. The self-media exposed Ziyun Group's pollutant leakage today, and exposed Hongta Group's cutting corners in meat products tomorrow, not using additives and drugs…
Zhang Yu knew that these were all companies launching water armies to manipulate public opinion.
Although the competition between companies became more and more fierce, it didn't have a big impact on Zhang Yu's daily life. On the contrary, some of the promotional activities allowed Zhang Yu to fleece a lot of wool.
For example, the cultivation methods on the cultivation method platform ushered in several discount activities, saving him hundreds of thousands in fees when purchasing cultivation methods.
And feeling the changes in Songyang City, Zhang Yu always had a feeling that it seemed that after Oasis Group's synthetic meat was promoted to the market, the competition between these gangs and companies became more and more intense.
After Fuki heard Zhang Yu's guess, she said from the side: "Don't think too much about this matter. It's too big and has nothing to do with us. Just cultivate your cultivation methods with peace of mind and prepare for the final round of foundation building exams."
Zhang Yu knew that Fuki was right, and sighed. It was indeed not his turn as a high school student to think too much about this kind of thing.
Jumping out of the news webpage, Zhang Yu's gaze once again fell on the newly purchased discount cultivation method—Zhenfa Yuanshen.
Thanks to this discount, he was able to buy this cultivation method in advance, and it also allowed Zhang Yu, who had been scraping together money until today, to see his account balance plummet again, leaving only more than 20,000 yuan.
Whenever he thought of this, Zhang Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Although I've earned a lot in the past two months, I've also spent a lot. Most of the money has been transformed into cultivation methods and integrated into my body."
And the Zhenfa Yuanshen, which can form the seventh cultivation method of the Martial Dao Holy Embryo, is a body refining cultivation method that enhances the body's resistance to external mana.
"The human epidermis has five layers. This method is to gradually temper the epidermis with one's own mana, so that each layer of the epidermis can resist a portion of the mana intruding from the outside world…"
"After Zhenfa Yuanshen is practiced to level 10, the five layers of epidermis all over the body will be completely tempered, and the physical body will be able to possess powerful mana resistance."
"If you want to let external mana enter the body, it's also simple. Just wrap the opponent's mana with my own mana."
Zhang Yu knew that when he used the Undying Seal to absorb the opponent's mana, he needed to guide the opponent's mana into his body.
Zhang Yu also thought of the process of the assassination he encountered last time. If he had mastered this Zhenfa Yuanshen at that time, it would have been easier to fight.
Just as Zhang Yu was pushing Zhenfa Yuanshen to level 3, accompanied by the sound of opening and closing the door, Bai Zhenzhen had already walked into the apartment slowly with a body full of fatigue.
Zhang Yu turned his head to look at Bai Zhenzhen, and felt a substantial killing intent rushing towards him, stimulating Zhang Yu to stand on end, and had the illusion of a sword pointing directly at his throat.
"This guy Zhenzhen, since participating in the gang war, has become more and more dangerous."
However, as Bai Zhenzhen entered the apartment, the killing intent on her body gradually dissipated, and she regained her past high school student aura.
Zhang Yu looked at the time and said in surprise: "So early today? You're back at two o'clock?"
Bai Zhenzhen casually took off her combat jacket and threw it on the ground. It was covered with the contents of this magical skill and that great method.
Zhang Yu knew that the contents of the cultivation methods on it were all fake. There would be no fine for wearing them, but they could force many people to dare not look directly during battles, just like ancient generals wearing helmets with ghosts and gods, which had the effect of deterring opponents on the battlefield.
The trousers and underwear were also taken off casually. Bai Zhenzhen walked naked towards the bathroom in Zhang Yu's accustomed gaze.
Zhang Yu could see a few shallow scars on Bai Zhenzhen's arm, and even a few shallow words.
Those were the seal weapons used by some masters of the Golden Class Gang. Once a seal was applied, a set of cultivation methods could be imprinted on the opponent's body. Although it was not fatal on the spot, it would be enough to make people bankrupt afterwards.
However, seeing that Bai Zhenzhen was only scratched by a few words, it was obvious that she had dodged the opponent's trick at a critical moment.
Hearing Zhang Yu's question, Bai Zhenzhen turned around and said with a blank face: "I just tied their students to the gang, and the Dark Study Gang and the Golden Class Gang announced a truce."
Zhang Yu quickly turned his head away and scolded: "I've told you several times, don't walk around naked at home! What if you cause me to lose my means of production again? It's all money."
Bai Zhenzhen tilted her head and said impatiently: "Everyone is so familiar, isn't it tiring to hide and hide when changing clothes? It's a waste of time, do we have a lot of time?"
Then she sneered and looked at Zhang Yu with disdain: "Tsk… and I'm not naked, don't you have that problem?"
"When I came back last night, you had already gone out, I didn't even meet you, right? As a result, I saw that the trash can was full of balls of paper…"
Zhang Yu slapped the floor and said angrily: "I told you not to rummage through the trash can."
"And I used that to wipe my nose, not what you think."
Bai Zhenzhen rolled her eyes, turned around and faced away from Zhang Yu, took off her last shorts, and said impatiently: "Is it all the same."
"Yuzi, don't you see where the price Hongta gave you has fallen? Your thing is now only worth a little more than boiled water, it's already useless."
You damn… Zhang Yu looked at Bai Zhenzhen's face and sighed in his heart, Zhenzhen ah Zhenzhen, have you forgotten how Dad I earned money tube by tube to support you a few months ago? Now that it can't be sold for a price, you actually said such heartbreaking words.
Bai Zhenzhen continued: "Having a root is always a trouble. After the foundation building exam, we don't have to save money. I'll pay for you to go to the hospital for sterilization at that time, and I'll take care of a one-stop service for you."
After saying that, Bai Zhenzhen walked into the bathroom, and the sound of water started soon after.
And Fuki recalled what Bai Zhenzhen had just said, and said in her heart with some surprise: "They actually called a truce?"
She said to Zhang Yu: "Check the news…"
The latest novels are first published on !
Zhang Yu picked up his phone and checked the news according to Fuki's instructions. Soon, he saw the news that Xianyun Group and Shenhai Group announced their cooperation and exchanged shares with each other.
Looking at Zhang Yu's surprised gaze, Fuki smiled and said: "What's so surprising about this? Exchanging shares, binding each other, and then further monopolizing the entire industry, isn't this a common phenomenon in Kunxu? It's been intensifying over the years and hasn't stopped."
"And whether it's Xianyun Group or Shenhai Group, although they seem to be in a competitive relationship, in the end, these two companies both belong to the Wanfa Sect of the Ten Great Sects."
"As long as someone within the sect mediates, let alone cooperation, it's not impossible for these two companies to merge."
Fuki continued: "However, this cooperation seems to be a bit abrupt. Take a look at their other news."
Zhang Yu said: "After the two companies cooperate, they announced that they will enter the food industry? They want to cooperate with Oasis Group?"
"Oasis Group… Why do I feel like everything is related to them?"
Fuki thought to herself: "Oasis Group… Behind it is the Nether Palace, right? It seems like that kind of thing again. Don't let this kid Zhang Yu meddle in other people's business."
Fuki said casually: "Alright, no matter what, it has nothing to do with you. Hurry up and cultivate. The most important thing for you now is the foundation building exam, don't worry about anything else."
With the truce between the Dark Study Gang and the Golden Class Gang, Bai Zhenzhen, who didn't have to fight on the front line, suddenly had a lot of time.
So, in addition to cultivating, she invited the martial arts teachers of Songyang High School to accompany her in actual combat training every day, tempering her cultivation methods in battle, and honing her body and mana.
Days passed like this day by day, and in the blink of an eye, it came to January.
… …
January 1st.
Two days later will be the day of the final round of foundation building exams.
In the apartment, Zhang Yu, who was sitting cross-legged, had half of his body frozen with frost, while the other half was rolling hot, emitting steaming heat.
This was him cultivating the eighth cultivation method of the Martial Dao Holy Embryo—Kanbing Lihuo Body Tempering Great Method.
Tempering himself with Kanbing mana and Lihuo mana respectively, so that the body has a strong adaptability to high and low temperatures, and further enhances toughness.
And at this moment, it was the critical moment for Zhang Yu to push the Kanbing Lihuo Body Tempering Great Method to level 10.
Boom!
With a loud bang, Zhang Yu's body was no longer cold on one side and hot on the other, but hot and cold all over, alternating between cold and heat, and finally the ice and fire merged into one, turning into a normal state.
Zhang Yu felt the changes in his flesh and blood, and slowly exhaled.
"Finally, the eighth cultivation method of the Martial Dao Holy Embryo is completed."
After pushing the Ice and Fire Body Tempering Method to level 10, Zhang Yu could feel that his physical body not only had a stronger adaptation to temperature changes, but also, after running this cultivation method, he could fight with his body in a high-temperature or low-temperature state, and the two states each had their own wonderful uses.
And after taking a look at the second layer effect of the Martial Dao Holy Embryo, Zhang Yu also laughed and said, "Although I haven't been able to cultivate the Martial Dao Holy Embryo to its ultimate effect, it should be enough to pass this Foundation Establishment Exam."
Looking at his phone, he found that his leave of absence had already been approved. Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Everything is ready, I can set off now."
