Chapter 101 Agreed time, competing for a place in the competition
Under the bridge, beside the river.
Along with the rumbling sound of heavy trucks driving across the viaduct, faint roars could be heard from under the bridge.
A courier was riding an electric scooter towards the bridge tunnel. He was a courier from the nearby mortal slums.
From a distance, he seemed to be able to faintly hear the sound of collision, but when he arrived under the bridge, he could only see Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen standing opposite each other.
"Your delivery."
The courier handed a box of express to the other party. When he glanced at Bai Zhenzhen, his face turned red.
This high school girl was too pretty and delicate for him.
Recalling the beauties in his class and school in junior high school, the young man thought to himself: "High school students are high school students, the pride of heaven... their temperament and appearance are not comparable to those of junior high school students."
But he immediately retracted his gaze, fearing that he would anger the other person.
It was not the first time for the young man to come here to deliver goods. He had a vague idea that this high school couple often came here at night and did something unknown.
He also knew that there was a group of hooligans lurking nearby, and they ran away when they saw high school students around.
After all, high school students... they are the best of the best who can go to the city to work. They are not comparable to ordinary people like them. Even the couriers they work for charge much more than them.
With a hint of envy, the courier took one last look at Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen, then rode away on his electric scooter.
Zhang Yu opened the express package and said to Bai Zhenzhen, "These are the synthetic food and animal protein milk you ordered. I wonder how they taste compared to the cafeteria."
Bai Zhenzhen said indifferently: "It's cheap anyway. As long as it doesn't taste worse than shit, I'll accept it."
After the courier left, Zhang Yu smiled and said, "Go on."
Zhang Yu was seen standing in the same place, with white mist rising from his entire body.
With the growth of his magic power, when Zhang Yu once again used the Wuji Cloud Hand, the Wuxiang Cloud Gang became more and more turbulent, covering his entire body. Only a vague human figure could be barely seen in the large white cloud.
At the same time, Bai Zhenzhen's figure flashed at high speed around Zhang Yu, constantly emitting bursts of roars, like thunder passing through the clouds. It was Bai Zhenzhen who had made rapid progress in practicing the Thunder Body during this period.
When it comes to long-distance travel, Bai Zhenzhen is naturally no match for Zhang Yu, who has level 10 sports car legs.
But the short-distance sprint in battle, as well as the footwork, shifting, dodging, and reaction... Bai Zhenzhen is now much more flexible than Zhang Yu.
All that was heard was Bai Zhenzhen's fists rushing into the clouds again and again, colliding with Zhang Yu's formless energy again and again, causing crackling sounds.
The next moment, the cloud transformed by the Wuxiang Yun Gang spun at a high speed, rolling towards Bai Zhenzhen's fist like a whirlpool. Bai Zhenzhen felt her center of gravity shake, and she was thrown out.
However, Bai Zhenzhen's body twisted at high speed in mid-air, and she stabilized her center of gravity with incredible flexibility and landed steadily on the ground.
She looked at Zhang Yu, who was still covered in thick fog, and thought to herself, "As Yu Zi's magic power becomes stronger, this formless cloud is getting thicker and thicker, and the range it spreads into the air is gradually expanding. It is becoming more and more difficult to deal with."
Recalling the feeling of rushing into the thick fog again and again...
With the coordination of Wuji Cloud Hand and Beilong Fanyue Hand, not only Zhang Yu's figure and movements were difficult to observe, but also attacks from all directions, such as collapse, swing, roll, shock, and bounce... all kinds of different forces, trying to completely break her balance, and even make her be rolled up in the clouds.
And with the coordination of Wuji Cloud Hand and Immortal Seal, as Bai Zhenzhen's body-breaking sword energy attacks, the cloud will expand further and rebound against the attacker after accumulating strength, making the attacker more and more uncomfortable.
Even in such a situation, one had to be on guard all the time against Zhang Yu's unclear body in the clouds and fog, in case he attacked boldly.
"No more fighting." Bai Zhenzhen waved her hand and said, "Your Wuxiang Yun Gang is an integrated attacker and defender, like a tortoise shell covered with thorns. You also used my spiritual roots, so I can't find any flaws. There is no training effect at all."
During this period, in addition to their own hard training, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen also practiced together from time to time to train their practical combat skills.
In the absence of a third party watching, the two no longer had to worry about their high-level skills being exposed. They performed various level 10 skills in turn, and the effect of this practical training was much better than that in school.
At this moment, hearing Bai Zhenzhen's call, Zhang Yu also dispersed the formless cloud energy around him.
After this period of practical training, Zhang Yu gradually understood the situation.
"If the true spiritual root is in me, then I will be invincible."
"If the true spiritual root is in Ah Zhen himself, then we will both win if we fight."
Of course, the above results were all achieved when Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen did not use all their strength to kill the opponent.
After all, without enough spare money to visit the clinic, the two of them didn't want to get injured during actual combat training.
At this moment, as Bai Zhenzhen called for a halt, Zhang Yu had just dispersed the Wuxiang Yun Gang when he saw a figure rushing towards him. He ran behind Zhang Yu and lightly jumped to hug him.
Bai Zhenzhen laughed and said, "It's my turn now!"
As Bai Zhenzhen's body pressed against it, the spiritual root returned to her body.
With the repeated exchange of spiritual roots during this period, the two have become extremely familiar with this set of movements.
Looking at Bai Zhenzhen who was practicing hard on the side, Zhang Yu smiled slightly and then looked at his feather book.
Although the main focus is on physical strength, the Tao heart and magic power are also steadily improving.
Among them, the Dao Heart reached Level 4 (28%). Level 4 Dao Heart made him control his body and magic power more easily, and his martial arts skills were better than before.
With the help of his true spiritual roots, his magic power grew rapidly and has now reached 34.8, making his formless cloud power even more powerful and violent.
"But recently, as my mana has increased, the speed of refining it has slowed down. It seems that the effectiveness of the Zhoutian Qi Gathering Method has begun to decrease. Perhaps it is about to reach a bottleneck."
As a martial art for beginners, the Zhoutian Qi Gathering Method naturally has its limits. Zhang Yu feels that around 50 points of mana should be the upper limit that the Zhoutian Qi Gathering Method can support.
"If you want to have more powerful magic power, you will have to switch to an expert-level breathing method."
As for physical strength, which has been the main focus of Zhang Yu's improvement during this period, it has now reached level 3.21, which is a huge increase compared to the martial arts competition a month ago.
Of course, such a huge improvement naturally cost Zhang Yu a lot of money.
Although he had the income from tutoring fees, plus selling a piece of Lian Tianji clothing from time to time, Zhang Yu made more than 100,000 yuan during this period.
However, the Hunyuan Pills that cost 30,000 yuan each, and the rising food expenses after his physical strength increased, made Zhang Yu spend more and more, and now he had less than 20,000 yuan in savings.
As the sky gradually brightened, Zhang Yu looked at the gradually rising sun and said, "Ah Zhen, get ready to go to school."
"Remember what day it is today?"
Bai Zhenzhen's face was still flushed from the exercise. She wiped the sweat off her forehead and said, "Of course, today is our big day to show off at the sports competition team!"
…
Inside the stadium.
As the training began, students opened the big bottles and began to gulp down the Dao Heart Buffer.
During the following training session, one of the students suddenly had his arm twitching and became weak.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Wang Hai walked over, grabbed the other person's arm, frowned and said, "Did you drink enough Dao Heart Buffer yesterday?"
Seeing the other party's hesitation, Wang Hai snorted coldly: "You have undergone a special training program. Your physical strength is most likely to exceed the control of your Dao Heart. Therefore, the amount of Dao Heart buffer must be increased to more than 5 times every day. Any less may cause your physical strength to get out of control."
"I'm letting you drink the Dao Heart Buffer not to make money for the school, but for your own good."
"After spending so much money and going through so much hard training, you want to lose a place in the physical competition just because you save a few sips of buffer?"
Seeing the other party lowering his head in shame, Wang Hai let him go.
Then he looked at He Dayou who was training nearby, his face showing a complicated expression, and he sighed in his heart: "He Dayou has completely left Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen behind, right? Alas, with the advancement of immortal technology, personal talent and hard work are not worth mentioning."
At this moment, He Dayou was slowly lifting a heavy and huge barbell.
At the same time, the Heavenly Demon Parasitic Technique in his body started to work, accelerating the integration of the transplanted flesh and blood during this strength training, allowing him to exert his own strength more freely and controllably.
After all, the transplanted flesh and blood cannot be controlled freely at the beginning.
He Dayou still remembers that after completing his first transplant surgery, he felt like he was wearing a suit of armor, with his hands and feet restricted and unable to move.
But later, with his efforts, although the operation was still going on, the "armor" on his body became lighter and thinner after his continuous exercise.
From armor to coat, and from coat to underwear, He Dayou no longer feels too much restraint. The transplanted flesh and blood is like a layer of imperceptible skin that he can completely control.
"Very good. If you keep this up, I'll be able to proceed to the next stage of surgery in a few days."
"Then continue to work hard on your training and push your physical strength to above level 4.0 before the competition. There is still hope."
At this moment, accompanied by a burst of shouts of "Hello, senior!" and "Hello, senior!", He Dayou turned his head and found that it was Lan Ling who came to the gymnasium with several other sophomores from the Sports Department.
Lan Ling glanced around and frowned, "Are Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen not here yet?"
He Dayou knew that today was the day to decide the final places for the sports competition one month later, and it was also the time for Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen to come and humiliate themselves.
"These two guys are skipping classes all the time now, and I don't know how much progress they have made."
"But it doesn't matter. No matter how much they improve, they can never surpass me under the special training program."
He Dayou continued to train silently. Ever since he surpassed Zhang Yu in the last monthly exam, he gradually stopped taking this former rival seriously.
"People should look forward. My future opponents will be the top students from Bailong High School, Ziyun High School, and Hongta High School."
At the same time, Lan Ling looked at He Dayou and the other five people who were training and said, "Since Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen haven't arrived yet, you should test your physical strength first. When they arrive, you can test them again and we can end it directly."
In Blue Ridge's opinion, there is no need for further comparison. Physical strength alone should be enough to eliminate those two poor guys.
First place, He Dayou, physical strength level 3.07
…
Fourth place, Li Yong, physical strength level 2.96
Fifth place, Ye Haitao, physical strength level 2.94
Looking at the five people's physical strength values, Lan Ling nodded slightly: "He Dayou, you are improving very quickly. Keep it up. It will be no problem for you to get a place in the sports competition."
"Ye Haitao, you are the last one to join the team, so hurry up, it's hard to get a ranking with this number..."
Faced with the comments from Lan Ling, the sophomore student union cadre, the freshmen present naturally accepted them gladly and nodded in agreement.
Just then, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen walked in under the gaze of everyone.
Lan Ling glanced at them coldly and said calmly: "Let's test the physical strength first. If you can exceed 2.94, you can get a place in the competition."
So a moment later, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen's physical strength appeared on the big screen and were added to the ranking.
First place, Zhang Yu, physical strength level 3.21
…
Fifth place, Bai Zhenzhen, physical strength level 2.98
