Looking at Ye Xingli’s reply, Zhang Yu felt a slight surprise in his heart: "What a coincidence? Ye Xingli is actually the disciple of the Magnetic Pole True Monarch?"
"Doesn’t that make her my senior sister?"
Then another question arose in Zhang Yu’s mind.
Zhang Yu: Did the Magnetic Pole True Monarch ntion ?
Ye Xingli: Yes, Master said that today while chatting with True Monarch Qingmu, the latter brought up a disciple.
Ye Xingli: After learning about it, Master thought this disciple was very outstanding, so he asked True Monarch Qingmu a few more questions.
Ye Xingli: Master told this disciple’s na was Zhang Yu.
Ye Xingli: As soon as I heard it was you, I thought I knew you, so I started talking about you with Master.
Zhang Yu knew True Monarch Qingmu was Director Gao, but looking at Ye Xingli’s replies... he had a peculiar expression on his face.
Especially thinking about Director Gao praising him in front of the Magnetic Pole True Monarch, and the Magnetic Pole True Monarch listening aside while asking questions.
"This Magnetic Pole True Monarch guy has a bit of a an personality, right? Playing gas with our Civil Engineering Departnt Director Gao?"
But thinking of himself as part of the ga between the Magnetic Pole True Monarch and Director Gao, Zhang Yu imdiately felt a sense of betrayal.
"Does this make a Civil Engineering traitor?"
"Even if I’m a traitor, with the Magnetic Pole True Monarch playing like this... what if he’s irresponsible three years later?"
Zhang Yu shook his head, suppressing the distracting thoughts in his mind.
He couldn’t decide the thoughts of big figures; the only thing he could do was to constantly improve himself, beco more excellent, achieve higher grades, higher rankings, and gain more initiative.
So after chatting with Ye Xingli for a few monts, Zhang Yu imdiately sought her advice on the Artifact Refining courses.
After all, according to the Magnetic Pole True Monarch’s requirents, Zhang Yu had to complete all courses of the Artifact Refining Departnt’s first three years and pass the assessnts before the third year ended.
Ye Xingli: You want to take so courses from the Artifact Refining Departnt?
Ye Xingli: Well, yes, your Civil Engineering benefits from taking material courses and learning about magic remains maintenance and usage.
Ye Xingli wasn’t surprised by this, as Civil Engineering relies on understanding various materials, and the Artifact Refining Departnt’s expertise in the design, workmanship, and reasonable usage of materials is unrivaled across Wanfa University.
As for the maintenance and usage of magic remains, there’s even less need to ntion it. Civil Engineering participates in various projects; at first, it only wears down the body, but once magic remains are installed, it starts to wear them down.
How to maintain magic remains, pick them, use them better, researching these can save a lot of money and improve work efficiency.
Many mid and upper-year Civil Engineering students take so courses from the Artifact Refining Departnt, and Ye Xingli has seen this many tis.
But...
Ye Xingli: You’re just about to enter your second year, is it too early to take courses from other departnts?
Zhang Yu: Just getting an early understanding to prepare for the future.
Ye Xingli: That makes sense. I’ll send you the course schedule of the Artifact Refining Departnt, and you can check the details yourself.
Looking at the course schedule she sent, Zhang Yu imdiately scanned through it, but the more he looked, the more shocked he felt.
Magic Treasure Engineering Drawing, Principles of Magic Treasures, Magic Treasure Design, Basics of Rune Etching, Dynamics of Magic Treasures, Energized Materials and Forming Technology, Mana Transmission and Conduction, Introductory Automated Artifact Spirit, True Fire Processing Technology...
Looking at the dense list of courses, Zhang Yu felt as if he was seeing libraries appear before him.
"Wait... are the courses from the Artifact Refining Departnt more than ours in Civil Engineering?"
"In the sa sester, their course load is almost three tis ours in Civil Engineering, right?"
"And all sorts of lab courses, artifact refinent practice courses..."
"And then the course schedule..."
Zhang Yu raised his question to Ye Xingli: Many courses seem to be run concurrently? How’s that possible?
Ye Xingli: The Artifact Refining Departnt’s courses are overwhelming, too much to schedule separately, so class tis won’t be deliberately staggered.
Ye Xingli: You either find a way to take multiple courses simultaneously or take online courses to make them up afterward.
Ye Xingli: But you don’t need to learn them all; just pick a few useful ones for yourself.
Zhang Yu smiled wryly, thinking, "I plan to learn them all."
"Indeed, the requirents from the Magnetic Pole True Monarch aren’t simple."
"So many courses, if I wait till the third year to start learning, it might be too late."
"Fortunately..."
Zhang Yu felt the remnant Can Niu Soul Heart Technique and the Imasurable Heart Inner Dharma Body operate within his mind.
He looked at the two-headed White Bull roaring upwards, secretly saying: "Luckily I’ve been practicing the Imasurable Heart Inner Dharma Body, already able to multitask."
"Next, I must push the Imasurable Heart Inner Dharma Body to Level 20."
"With so many things to learn in the Artifact Refining Departnt, without the ability to multitask, it would be impossible to maintain cultivation and learn all these things simultaneously."
"By the way, there’s the accelerated ti in the Spirit Realm."
Zhang Yu thought to himself: "Through acceleration in the Spirit Realm, efficiency can be further improved."
"But it also costs money."
"Plus, learning the courses from the Artifact Refining Departnt costs money too."
Zhang Yu wasn’t an Artifact Refining student, and according to the regulations of Wanfa University, he couldn’t attend courses in the Artifact Refining Departnt unless he paid.
"Online courses and textbooks cost quite a bit, and if hiring teachers for tutoring, it costs even more."
Zhang Yu sighed, once again lanting not having enough money.
And whenever he lanted not having enough money, he couldn’t help but think of a man, a wealthy man.
Thus Zhang Yu sent a ssage to senior Tian Yang.
This senior, previously in the sixth year, now promoted to the seventh year, was the one who worked with Zhang Yu to poke President Wang during the incident in the underground tomb.
Zhang Yu: Have you contacted President Wang?
Zhang Yu: Freshman year-end ranking. Image file
Zhang Yu: These are my freshly released results. If you can contact President Wang, send them to him for a look.
Zhang Yu: Sigh, I really miss him.
Over the past few months, the more Zhang Yu earned money on his own, the more he realized how little money he had when he needed it. He began to miss the tis he could ask President Wang for money.
A mont later, Tian Yang replied: Can’t get in touch.
Tian Yang: I miss him too.
Tian Yang: If you have any more images like this, send them to . If I can get in touch, I’ll forward them all to President Wang.
After chatting casually with Tian Yang for a few monts, Zhang Yu glanced over the various ssages from others.
Li Xiao: Senior brother, you were amazing this ti. I sent your ranking to the hotown group in Xiandu City, and they didn’t believe it at first.
Li Xiao: Ye Lingxiao even asked if it was a fake image.
Li Xiao: You should have seen their incredulous expressions.
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "This kid is also a trickster from Xiandu."
"And knowing I can’t see your Xiandu group chats, couldn’t you show so screenshots?"
Just as Zhang Yu was contemplating how to hint to Li Xiao to send him the chat records from the Xiandu group, Fu Ji suddenly said, "Maybe Ye Lingxiao can contact President Wang?"
Hearing this, Zhang Yu’s mind was stirred: "Fu Ji, you, once it cos to the realm of scams, you beco so sharp-minded."
Zhang Yu knew that Ye Lingxiao, as a descendant of the Xiandu Ye Clan from the first floor, was also President Wang’s designated lackey back when he was still on the first floor, having graduated high school and entered university before President Wang t his downfall.
"Ye Lingxiao might indeed have entered Nether University and could potentially contact President Wang."
Thinking of this, Zhang Yu imdiately replied: Can you connect with Ye Lingxiao? I want to add him as a friend.
Seeing the ssage pushed by Li Xiao, Zhang Yu’s eyes lit up: "Nether University, third place in the Foundation Establishnt class of the Biology Departnt, Ye Lingxiao."
"So it really is Nether University."
After adding him as a friend, Zhang Yu thought the other party wouldn’t accept imdiately. To his surprise, not only did he accept imdiately, but he also sent a ssage.
Ye Lingxiao: Zhang Yu, don’t contact anymore.
Ye Lingxiao: I’m afraid President Wang might misunderstand if he finds out.
After sending these two ssages, Ye Lingxiao decisively deleted Zhang Yu as a friend.
...
Nether University.
Recalling Zhang Yu’s performance this ti, Ye Lingxiao suddenly clutched his chest: "Damn it."
"How can he be this smart?"
At this mont, Ye Lingxiao felt as if the good mood he had from securing third place in the year-end exams vanished instantly.
...
Seeing Ye Lingxiao disregard hotown feelings like this, Zhang Yu had no choice but to set it aside for the ti being and look at other ssages.
Shi Yunxiang: Zhang Yu, if you were in Sky Demon University, you’d probably have been lined up by the students in the Breeding Departnt by now.
Che Yufei: Young Master Yu, did you join the competition team?
Zhao Tianxing: [Thumbs up]
Seeing Zhao Tianxing’s gesture, Zhang Yu knew he was likely still working overti and couldn’t send many text ssages to him.
So he sent back a thumbs-up, and everything was left unsaid.
Soon, Zhang Yu saw ssages from the competition team again.
...
Ma Xuan: @Ji Yuanshu, did the results co out?
Ma Xuan: Next, you should start learning the first extre of the Seven Extres of Civil Engineering, the Xuanhuang Sealing Mountain Seal.
Ma Xuan: This Cultivation Technique lays the foundation, not only pushing the Seven Extres of Civil Engineering but also having a significant impact on other large-scale construction-related civil techniques.
Ma Xuan: If you can learn it, it would be very helpful for the competition.
Ma Xuan: I have quite a bit of experience in this area. If you have any questions, feel free to ask anyti.
Just as Ma Xuan was halfway through ssaging, he saw Cong Na had ssaged him privately.
Ma Xuan opened the window that popped out of the eye cavity, intending to see what Cong Na had sent him.
Cong Na: Don’t say anything.
Cong Na: Just stop talking.
Cong Na: Freshman year-end ranking. Image file
Cong Na: This is their class ranking, have a look yourself.
Ma Xuan clicked open and found that Zhang Yu had actually ranked above Ji Yuanshu.
Ma Xuan: Impossible! How could Zhang Yu surpass Ji Yuanshu?
Ma Xuan: Where did you get this screenshot?
Cong Na: From Zhang Yu’s friend circle posting.
Ma Xuan rembered that Cong Na was friends with Zhang Yu.
Ma Xuan: If it’s posted in the friend circle, it’s probably true.
Ma Xuan: But I still don’t understand how Ji Yuanshu could lose to Zhang Yu?
Cong Na: It doesn’t matter how he lost, a loss is a loss, it simply ans that at this mont Zhang Yu’s strength is above Ji Yuanshu.
Cong Na: The question now is whether we should replace Ji Yuanshu with Zhang Yu.
