Chapter 515: Chapter 458: The Boundless Artifact Refining Departnt, Rematch with King Kong
As the Mystic Yin Heaven Pearl emitted layers of radiance, the incarnation of the Magnetic Pole True Monarch appeared before Zhang Yu.
The graceful figure in royal attire sat on an office chair, looked at Zhang Yu with satisfaction, and said, “I didn’t expect to underestimate you; you’ve truly mastered the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain Shifting Divine Power in a short ti.”
“Though there were favorable circumstances, the fulfillnt from the True Monarch of Resting Clouds, your aptitude in Martial Arts is also indispensable.”
After saying that, the Magnetic Pole True Monarch patted her thigh and said, “Co here.”
“Let check your body.”
Thinking about his future plans to enter the Artifact Refining Departnt, Zhang Yu could only grit his teeth and sit on her thigh.
Feeling the Magnetic Pole True Monarch’s fingers glide over his body, strands of mana penetrated his ridians, exploring the condition of his body.
Zhang Yu felt like a piece of high-quality material for artifact refining, constantly receiving comnts from the Magnetic Pole True Monarch.
“Not bad, not bad,” said the Magnetic Pole True Monarch. “Your physical body now naturally contains a hint of Earth Evil Gravity, which is the result of the body refining effect of the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain Shifting Divine Power.”
“Through years of practice and showcasing this martial art, a cultivator’s flesh unknowingly gains innate power, capable of erupting with Earth Evil Gravity while walking or sitting.”
“If your power is high enough and your understanding of the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain Shifting Divine Power is deep, even the flesh detached from the body will still carry that trace of Earth Evil Gravity, containing adaptability to it, truly excellent material for making flying or protective magic treasures.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu couldn’t help but tremble inside, forcing a smile, and said, “True Monarch, are you planning to use so of my flesh… to craft a magic treasure?”
At this mont, Zhang Yu felt humble like a technical college student.
The Magnetic Pole True Monarch, while holding Zhang Yu, touched his small hands and laughed, “What nonsense are you talking about? Would a dignified Nascent Soul True Monarch fancy your Foundation Establishnt Stage materials?”
“I was just thinking that in the past, cultivators who mastered the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain Shifting Divine Power never researched artifact refining, leaving vast areas of blank research at Wanfa University.”
“If in the future you can unravel the mysteries of the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain Shifting Divine Power and incorporate it into artifact refining research, like successfully refining your own flesh into magic remains, that would be enough for several papers.”
“During this process, if you can make discoveries, bringing innovation to the related Earth Evil Gravity techniques, after progressing to the Golden Core, you could secure a position in academic research and even assist in artifact refining studies.”
Zhang Yu nodded thoughtfully.
The Magnetic Pole True Monarch continued, “Let’s talk about switching disciplines.”
“Having mastered the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain Shifting Divine Power, have you decided to switch to the Artifact Refining Departnt after your third year?”
Zhang Yu’s face was serious as he earnestly nodded and said, “Teacher, the Civil Engineering Departnt is great, and continuing there has prospects. Director Gao has been kind to , but… I desire progress.”
“I want to walk further on the Immortal Path, aiming for postgraduate and doctoral studies, and perhaps even admittance into a sect.”
“I know only the Artifact Refining Departnt may accomplish these dreams.”
“People strive upward, water flows downward. Though the Civil Engineering Departnt treats you well, our Artifact Refining Departnt is more expansive,” the Magnetic Pole True Monarch remarked with feeling, nodding. “It’s good that you’ve resolved.”
“Still, Old Gao is the director of the Civil Engineering Departnt. Although I will assist you in this matter, complete indifference from Old Gao is impossible.”
“You must be ntally prepared for the pressure involved.”
At this mont, the Magnetic Pole True Monarch’s eyes flashed, easily granting Yan Qianji’s approval, and the projection of the Spirit Realm from the other party descended.
Yan Qianji reported to the Magnetic Pole True Monarch, “True Monarch, there’s a minor issue with the artifact spirit decryption; we need your guidance…”
The Magnetic Pole True Monarch indifferently replied, “Tell what the problem is first.”
While reporting, Yan Qianji glanced at the Magnetic Pole True Monarch before him, a thought rising in his mind: “Doesn’t the Magnetic Pole True Monarch seem to be holding soone?”
Though the Magnetic Pole True Monarch’s embrace was empty, Yan Qianji knew it could be obscured, and the True Monarch’s actions were too much like holding soone.
“But could it be?” Yan Qianji pondered secretly, “Soone like the Magnetic Pole True Monarch, who would she be holding? It surely can’t be Ye Xingli, right?”
After finishing the report, brimming with curiosity and surprise, Yan Qianji disconnected the communication.
However, Zhang Yu couldn’t see Yan Qianji’s solo projection communication with the Magnetic Pole True Monarch, only sensing that the Magnetic Pole True Monarch was remotely conversing with soone.
After finishing the call, the Magnetic Pole True Monarch continued, “The Civil Engineering Departnt’s Seven Extres Magic Remains, though not military-level, can synergize to greatly enhance the power of the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain Shifting Divine Power, offering unique advantages in augnting Earth Evil Gravity.”
“Rember to take all related diagrams before switching disciplines as they will be excellent references for your future crafting of magic remains…”
Fu Ji listening to the True Monarch’s guidance thought, “You two truly want to strip the Civil Engineering Departnt bare. In the future, the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain Shifting Divine Power and the Seven Extres Magic Remains from the Civil Engineering Departnt will have their essence transferred to the Artifact Refining Departnt, leaving little in the Civil Engineering Departnt. It might beco a sub-departnt of the Artifact Refining Departnt at Wanfa University.”
On the other side, after saying what needed to be said, the Magnetic Pole True Monarch patted Zhang Yu’s shoulder and said, “You should head back first, perform well in the competitions, and don’t rush the discipline switch; I will arrange it for you.”
…
Late January.
On the construction site.
With Zhang Yu’s palm changing, the nearby mountain exploded with a roar, and as it soared into the sky, it was quickly ground into a cloud of dust, like being stirred by an unseen vortex.
Then, with a pointed finger, Zhang Yu sent out a wave of Earth Evil Gravity that swiftly gathered the exploded dust into a concentrated field.
Through recent training on the site, his Kunyuan Technique had reached the 20th level, the pinnacle of the Foundation Establishnt.
This also indicated his Heavenly Kunlun Mountain Shifting Divine Power reached the 20th level standard, arriving at the peak of the Foundation Establishnt Stage.
At the sa ti, with the additional enhancent from the Chain Technique Map’s inversion of the first layer of Kunlun, the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain Shifting Divine Power that Zhang Yu wielded could cause imnse environntal destruction.
Zhang Yu had once tried it out in the deserted wilds, and even without using full force, he was already shocked.
For his full-powered self, he had only one assessnt in mind.
“Earth-shattering.”
Just then, Zhang Yu saw a ssage from Feng Tingting.
Feng Tingting: Zhang Yu! Have you heard? The Magnetic Pole True Monarch was embracing soone in his office late at night!
Zhang Yu: Huh?
Feng Tingting: It must be top-grade Artifact Refining materials, for the True Monarch to still play with them late at night.
Zhang Yu: Maybe.
Feng Tingting: I’m really curious about what kind of person could be held like that by the True Monarch.
Feng Tingting: It’d be great if I could get so scraps.
Zhang Yu: Where did you hear this from?
Feng Tingting: Why are you asking? I won’t casually disclose such things.
Zhang Yu shook his head, thinking that with the Magnetic Pole True Monarch’s cultivation, he wouldn’t let anyone see who he was holding.
A few hours later, another day passed. Fu Ji reviewed the workloads of various employees, calculated the salaries, and then reported to Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu distributed the salaries one by one, feeling a twinge of pain as he watched the account balance decrease.
“Well, just hold on a bit longer. After all, it’s Wanfa University’s own project; they won’t delay my project paynts. There should be a sum of money coming in next month.”
And the Soul Cultivators who received their salaries all sent their thanks.
Zhao Tianxing: Thank you, President Zhang
Hu Yuntao: Thank you, President Zhang
Grandfather Yingxin: Thank you, President Zhang
Seeing Zhang Yu distributing salaries so swiftly, Fu Ji couldn’t help but say, “You’re hiring them for a whole project, not as day laborers with lower wages. You don’t have to pay them every day?”
“We’re not a big company, and the project funds haven’t been received yet. I think we can delay them a month or two after the project’s completion without any issue.”
“Keeping that money in hand is quite a sum, and you could use it for your cultivation. When you’re not on the construction site, you could spend more ti in the Spirit Realm, simulating Artifact Refining techniques.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu shook his head and said, “Zhao Tianxing changed his path halfway through; he wasted his freshman year and is in need of money.”
“Mo Tianyi, being a Soul Cultivator for a while, has considerable expenses every month.”
“Hu Yuntao and Che Yufei have a mountain of debt; their financial situations are even worse.”
“As for the Ying Family mbers, there’s no need to ntion them. At their critical age, their maintenance costs are substantial. Since they ca to help , I don’t want to hold back their salaries either…”
Fu Ji was shocked by what she heard, “You kid, why are you taking such good care of the employees?”
She angrily said, “How can you just hand out spirit coins to employees every day? Isn’t that throwing money into the water?”
Zhang Yu replied calmly, “It’s not like there’s no money in the account.”
Fu Ji retorted angrily, “You can’t act like this; it greatly reduces the company’s competitiveness. How will it grow and expand in the future?”
“Since you made the CFO, you should listen to about these matters.”
To be honest, Zhang Yu didn’t know how to answer Fu Ji’s question.
He even understood that from certain angles, Fu Ji wasn’t wrong; reducing labor costs could increase the company’s competitiveness.
But at least at this mont, as long as he had the ans not to hold back salaries, Zhang Yu didn’t want to do so.
He couldn’t even imagine what tone he should use to discuss such matters with Zhao Tianxing and Che Yufei.
After futile persuasion, Fu Ji suddenly thought of sothing and said, “You kid… are you squeezing only at this company?”
Zhang Yu consoled, “You’re a shareholder. When I develop further, you’ll benefit greatly.”
At that mont, Fu Ji suddenly realized sothing: “Dang it… it seems I’m the only one at Zhang Yu’s company who can’t resign.”
Days later.
Zhang Yu, along with Shi Huaiyu, Su Yang and others, arrived at Vajra University.
Today was the day they faced Vajra University in the losers’ bracket to decide who would be the real loser of this session.
Looking at the shimring university beneath the Flying Boat, aside from Zhang Yu’s calm deanor, Su Yang and the others were filled with both tension and worry, clearly not entirely confident about the upcoming competition.
