Chapter 483

Inside the Civil Engineering Department's faculty group chat.

Tu Lishan: Congratulations to the competition team for successfully defeating Fujiang University! [Fireworks emojis]

Tu Lishan: Director Gao, I have uploaded the competition video.

Instantly, a flurry of congratulatory messages and continuous fireworks appeared in the faculty group chat.

Director Gao watched, nodding slightly. He was very satisfied with the competition team's performance this time.

"One more win, and they'll be the champions of the loser's bracket, then they'll go to the finals."

"Why aren't the 'Peace Faction' people coming out to congratulate them?" Looking at the names of the teachers who had spoken, Director Gao frowned. He really wanted to call out Director Lin himself!

He especially remembered how the Peace Faction had complained last time about Zhang Yu's team winning the "Seven Civil Engineering Marvels" too quickly, claiming it wasn't according to protocol! Thinking of this, Director Gao increasingly wanted to call them all out to see the competition team's results!

But he thought better of it, realizing it might not be appropriate.

"Maybe I should just have Tu Lishan do it..."

Meanwhile, Mo Shangjin also sent him a message: "Teacher, I didn't expect Zhang Yu to win the match this time without me playing."

Director Gao: "It seems his early win of the Seven Marvels wasn't in vain."

Mo Shangjin: "However, there's something I need to tell you!"

Hearing about Zhang Yu's breakthrough during the match, Director Gao's brow furrowed. He couldn't help but sigh, feeling that Zhang Yu had unknowingly been drawn into a storm!

"That yin artifact... it might very well be the Transcendent Soul Yin Artifact of God-Monarch Qiongjiang!"

"At his Foundation Establishment level, to be involved with a Transcendent Soul Yin Artifact... he might not be able to control his own destiny in the future!"

Thinking of this, the figure of Magnetic Pole True Lord appeared in Director Gao's mind, and he immediately sent a message to inquire.

Director Gao: "Do you know about Zhang Yu's situation?"

Magnetic Pole True Lord: "Don't worry, I'm protecting your disciple. I won't let your investment go to waste."

Upon seeing Magnetic Pole True Lord's reply, Director Gao's heart trembled. He replied: "Magnetic Pole, you need to be careful too."

Director Gao: "This matter is not simple."

Director Gao: "They're giving you this opportunity because they want you to be the one on the front lines."

Magnetic Pole True Lord: "Haha, Old Gao, in Kunxu, I'm not afraid of opportunities or risks."

Magnetic Pole True Lord: "I've been longing for the prestige of Transcendent Soul for too long."

Magnetic Pole True Lord: "Instead of worrying about me, you should worry more about your disciple!"

Magnetic Pole True Lord: [Photo]

Director Gao opened the photo sent by Magnetic Pole True Lord and saw Zhang Yu, Bai Zhenzhen, and Wen Wuya standing together!

Director Gao was slightly taken aback: "What is this?"

Magnetic Pole True Lord briefly introduced the identities of the two, then said: "Wen Wuya is fine, but this Bai Zhenzhen carries immense risk!"

Magnetic Pole True Lord: "You must have heard something about the 'Seven Emotions' lineage, haven't you?"

Magnetic Pole True Lord: "Although I've already advised Zhang Yu on the flying boat, he still seems somewhat persistent!"

Magnetic Pole True Lord: "Once he's back, you should educate him thoroughly and make him completely cut ties with Bai Zhenzhen. It's best to even block her!"

On the flying boat, after disconnecting the communication, Magnetic Pole True Lord patted Zhang Yu's head and smiled: "Someone will take you to the laboratory once we disembark!"

"I'll be waiting for you in the lab, and then I'll give you a thorough examination!"

Watching the other person's disappearing figure, Zhang Yu finally breathed a slight sigh of relief, thinking: "Magnetic Pole True Lord probably didn't find anything wrong with me!"

However, fearing that the other party might have left behind some monitoring, despite his intense curiosity, he didn't rush to switch back to the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo.

As soon as Zhang Yu returned to Wanfa University, he was taken to the laboratory by Tianzhang True Lord.

Watching the two hastily disappear, Su Yanyang, Xiao Yunji, and others couldn't help but show a hint of envy on their faces! After all, who wouldn't want to gain cultivation improvements and money just by participating in an experiment?

And thinking about how they still had to work hard for cultivation, repay loans, and work overtime to earn money, Shi Huaiyu and others sighed and then quickly departed.

On the other side, as Zhang Yu walked along, he heard Tianzhang True Lord repeatedly say: "The school leaders are very concerned about the results of this project and are very satisfied with the achievements of our project team!"

Listening, Zhang Yu secretly thought: "What achievements do you have?!"

Tianzhang True Lord continued: "I heard about what happened at Tianjian University this time; it was too dangerous. Don't get entangled with people from the 'Seven Emotions God-Monarch' lineage in the future; it's very troublesome!" He reminded him: "You must know that your body is no longer just your own; it concerns the entire project team, the future and prospects of countless people. Safety issues cannot be underestimated!"

"I think you should avoid participating in these off-campus competitions in the future if possible. Try to stay on campus as much as you can!"

Zhang Yu naturally couldn't agree to this. Civil engineering competitions affected his overall score and ranking, and off-campus projects were even more crucial to his income. How could he possibly give them up?

Sensing Zhang Yu's reluctance, Tianzhang True Lord smiled but said nothing more, intending to have Zhang Yu's own teacher persuade him later.

During their conversation, the two had already arrived at the laboratory!

Upon entering, Zhang Yu was immediately taken for various tests, especially to verify the power of his Level 18 Heavenly Kun Moving Mountain Divine Power! When it was confirmed that Zhang Yu's cultivation level had indeed reached Level 18, Tianzhang True Lord couldn't help but burst into laughter!

At the same time, Magnetic Pole True Lord had also arrived at the laboratory, taking hold of Zhang Yu and starting some tests. Magnetic Pole True Lord was filled with curiosity about the mysteries of the Transcendent Soul Yang Artifact and how it enhanced Zhang Yu's cultivation.

"Using dual cultivation to raise cultivation levels is a unique technique of Hehuan University. If I can unravel its mysteries, there will be no problem for me to achieve Transcendent Soul!"

With that, Magnetic Pole True Lord took hold of Zhang Yu, and carefully, yet with a hint of excitement, began to collect samples from him! Hair, blood, spiritual energy... she wanted to collect more samples for the upcoming experiments!

Meanwhile, Tianzhang True Lord took a blurry photo of Zhang Yu being studied, then posted it on his social media account with the caption: "This will be a world-changing invention, a new technology with epoch-making significance." Watching the steadily increasing likes and comments, Tianzhang True Lord smiled slightly!

Just then, his gaze shifted. Through his eye-bone, he saw messages indicating that visitors had arrived to tour the laboratory!

On the other side, after finishing her tasks, Magnetic Pole True Lord told Zhang Yu: "Your task for today is complete. You may leave!"

"However, you'll need to come whenever your cooperation is required!"

"Your contract will also be upgraded; the details are still being finalized. I'll negotiate for higher compensation for you, and I'll tell you more about it then!"

Just as Magnetic Pole True Lord was sending Zhang Yu away, Tianzhang True Lord appeared outside the laboratory with several people!

One of them said: "Is it really okay to let the test subject leave like this?"

Looking at the person, Magnetic Pole True Lord's gaze narrowed slightly, thinking: "Is this someone from the Research Department?" The Research Department was the powerful authority that managed all immortal cultivation research projects at Wanfa University! Magnetic Pole True Lord recognized the man before her. His name was Feng Ninghan, a supervisor in the Research Department, and he happened to be in charge of the Transcendent Soul Yin Artifact project.

Zhang Yu sensed Feng Ninghan's warning and unconsciously stopped, then glanced back at Magnetic Pole True Lord.

Magnetic Pole True Lord simply said: "I told you to leave, so leave. Don't linger here!"

This time, Zhang Yu took a step and left. Feng Ninghan didn't stop him, only shook his head and sighed: "You're just letting him leave like that? What if something goes wrong?"

"The experimental results on him are crucial assets of the school!"

"Do you know that he might already be targeted by other universities, especially Hehuan University?"

Magnetic Pole True Lord calmly retorted: "Don't you carry the school's assets on you? Don't I? If even Wanfa University itself isn't safe, then we might as well all stay in our cave abodes every day and never go out!"

"You know that's not what I mean!"

Feng Ninghan frowned and continued: "These experiment participants should be strictly managed! I heard he's still participating in competitions and projects outside. I suggest you keep him in the laboratory and not let him run around anywhere!"

"What if he gets attacked by people from other universities outside?"

"Also, you applied for his contract renewal—why does it require a basic salary of 40 spirit coins per month? That's too high! He's just being studied by you, not actually participating in technology development. Why does he need so much money?"

"The school allocates funds to you, not for you to waste them like this!"

Magnetic Pole True Lord ignored the other party, turned, and walked back into the laboratory: "I have my own arrangements. If there are any issues, I will report them to God-Monarch Wanhua. It's not your place to interfere!"

As the laboratory door closed, Tianzhang True Lord, standing nearby, smiled helplessly: "That's just how Magnetic Pole True Lord is. She gets too engrossed in her research, so sometimes her temper can be a bit eccentric!"

Feng Ninghan snorted coldly: "Is this a matter of temper? This is wasting school funds and resources, putting the school's assets at risk!"

"I will report the situation here to the higher-ups in detail. Even if it's Magnetic Pole, I won't let her act recklessly!"

Watching Feng Ninghan leave with a flick of his sleeve, Tianzhang True Lord helplessly shook his head!

Just then, a voice rang out: "Tianzhang True Lord, shall we continue our tour?"

Tianzhang True Lord looked in the direction of the voice. What met his eyes was Jiutian Liu from the Finance Department! Although the other party was still just a student, Tianzhang True Lord wouldn't underestimate him. Besides his identity in the Finance Department, it was because of the Transcendent Soul Master behind him—God-Monarch Jinque!

Although Tianzhang True Lord respected all three Transcendent Soul God-Monarchs in the school, he had a particular respect for God-Monarch Jinque! He knew that God-Monarch Jinque, with his background in the Finance Department, held immense influence over the school's various funds and investment allocations! Furthermore, God-Monarch Jinque commanded an unknown number of companies and assets; even a tiny fraction of his resources could make an entire project flourish!

For instance, this Transcendent Soul Yin Artifact experimental project also had a portion of his investment. And the current visit by Jiutian Liu was to conduct research for potential future investment additions from the funds behind him!

Tianzhang True Lord smiled slightly: "Haha, yes, yes, let's continue the tour!"

Jiutian Liu said: "Can I see that yin artifact?" He smiled and added: "I personally want to try out the effect of this yin artifact!"
