Chapter 40: Happy Heart Method and Fasai Tutoring

The next morning.

Ever since he broke through the Zhou Tian Qi Gathering Method to level 10 last night, Zhang Yu bought the Wild Ox Soul Calming Heart Technique and started practicing it...

Zhang Yu, who was forced to study, practice, and work by the power of rituals all the time and had gradually adapted to it, felt extremely comfortable with it as soon as he practiced the Wild Bull Soul-Calming Heart Technique. His progress was faster and more rapid than he had imagined.

Especially with the continuous upgrades of the Wild Bull Soul-Calming Heart Technique, Zhang Yu became more and more able to endure the boredom, tedium and loneliness of practicing the heart method.

Apart from invoking the power of the ritual to force himself, he hardly stopped at all, and made great progress in practicing the Wild Bull Soul-Calming Heart Sutra.

At daybreak, Zhang Yu slowly opened his eyes, and his Wild Ox Soul-Calming Secret had been upgraded to level 7 (15/21).

Zhang Yu was sometimes afraid of his own talent as he had improved this skill to such a level overnight.

In addition to this, Dao Heart has also made great progress, especially when Zhang Yu saw new data in the Feather Book, Dao Heart Level 2 (1%).

"Could it be that after I practiced the Wild Ox Soul Calming Heart Technique, my grasp of the Dao Heart became more accurate, so I was able to sense the specific progress of the Dao Heart?"

Zhang Yu shook his head. He knew too little about Yu Shu.

After getting up, brushing his teeth and washing his face, Zhang Yu continued to take advantage of the time to practice his mental skills on the way to school.

According to the rapid progress he was making in practicing the Wild Bull Soul-Calming Art, he felt that he should be able to push this art to level 10 today.

…

Songyang High School.

During break time.

Zhang Yu, who was practicing mental skills, couldn't help but frown when he heard the footsteps getting closer.

Then a tall boy with a shaved head walked up to him and asked, "Student Zhang Yu, I'm sorry to bother you."

"Can you lend me yesterday's math test paper?"

After waiting for a while, seeing Zhang Yu still not answering, the boy smiled indifferently: "Sorry, it seems that I disturbed you."

"Then you practice, I'll come find you later."

But when the boy turned around, a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes.

Zhang Yu was concentrating on his cultivation and completely ignoring him, which made him feel disrespected.

He thought to himself, "Oh, he is worthy of being the third in the grade. He is so arrogant. A player like me with a score of 530 is not even considered a human being by him, right?"

On the other side, listening to the other party's leaving footsteps, Zhang Yu felt a sense of relief that he had finally left.

"Isn't this kid Liang Qin a little too familiar?"

Liang Qin was the boy who had just asked Zhang Yu to borrow his math test paper.

Ever since Zhang Yu's monthly exam results came out, classmates often approached him to try to find out the secret of his rapid improvement in grades.

But most people only came once or twice and then never came again, especially Zhang Yu, who practiced hard during almost every break. Other students saw that he ignored them, and as the enthusiasm for the monthly exams gradually decreased, fewer people came to join in the fun.

Only Liang Qin would come to see him after almost every class.

It's not just after class.

During the martial arts class, Liang Qin would come and give him water.

After the physical education get out of class, he would come to bring Zhang Yu a sweat towel.

When eating in the cafeteria, he would try to save a seat for Zhang Yu in advance.

In his conversations, he always flattered Zhang Yu.

Like a diligent little bee, it would surround Zhang Yu from time to time.

At the beginning, Zhang Yu thought this person was good.

But after a few days, he felt that Liang Qin was becoming more and more annoying.

Especially after class, she would always come to see him, which affected his practice.

Moreover, while praising him, he always hinted at the secret of improving his grades, which made Zhang Yu feel quite boring.

So Zhang Yu gradually stopped paying attention to this person in the past two days, hoping that the other party would give up.

Although this process seemed to cause some resentment from the other party, Zhang Yu had no choice.

…

Time passed quickly and it was almost time to go home from school.

During the self-study class, Zhang Yu's body trembled slightly, and he felt as if a stream of nectar was gushing out from the depths of his sea of ​​consciousness, nourishing his entire body, making him feel extremely refreshed.

At the same time, a soft roar came from the mind's mind, and the old cow sketched by Zhang Yu was not only vivid, but also had its horns raised to the sky and a low roar coming from its mouth, as if it had come alive.

Wild Ox Soul Calming Secret Level 10

When this mental method was upgraded to level 10, Zhang Yu felt an incomparable satisfaction and happiness in his heart.

As long as he thought about his strength continuing to improve steadily, and that one skill after another would be pushed to level 10, Zhang Yu's heart was filled with anticipation, and the joy derived from this anticipation continued to surge.

"Is this the effect of the Wild Ox Soul Calming Heart Technique reaching level 10?"

“As long as you have expectations for the future in your heart, then even if you are practicing boring asceticism or enduring hardships, you can still feel happy and satisfied.”

Zhang Yu felt that this method was more interesting the more he practiced it. It could make people feel happy in their hard practice. Wouldn't it reduce the pain of practicing? Wouldn't it improve the efficiency of practicing? Why did so many people give it a bad review? Unless many people who practiced this method could no longer feel happy even if they reached level 10, because they no longer had expectations for the future in their lives? Thinking about the current situation on the first floor of Kunxu, Zhang Yu shook his head helplessly.

"The Wild Ox Soul-Calming Heart Technique is a good technique."

"But no matter how good a technique is, it is just a technique. The future ultimately depends on the person."

Just as Zhang Yu was feeling emotional, a female voice came: "Yuzi?"

Bai Zhenzhen looked at Zhang Yu's satisfied and happy face, scanned it from top to bottom, and then said doubtfully: "Yuzi, you won't overflow in the classroom, right?"

Zhang Yu suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Bai Zhenzhen who looked disgusted, and said speechlessly: "Alas, I was just sighing at the beauty of cultivation and understanding the helplessness of the world, but as soon as you, a vulgar person, opened your mouth, you ruined the atmosphere."

Bai Zhenzhen didn't bother to care about what Zhang Yu said about beauty and helplessness. She grabbed Zhang Yu and walked out of the classroom.

"Don't talk about these nonsense. Did you forget that you have to attend the French competition after school today? You have already paid 3,000 yuan."

After Zhang Yu's magic power entered the top ten in the grade last month, he and Bai Zhenzhen were selected to join the first-year high school team to participate in the magic power competition.

However, the things tested in the first-year magic competition were things that Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen had never learned in school, and they were far beyond the classroom content.

Therefore, Mr. Yan, the teacher of the magic class, organized a supplementary class to teach some magic competition projects.

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

…

In the classroom.

Apart from Teacher Yan, who had her hair tied up and wore black-framed glasses, the only students present were Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen.

Teacher Yan explained: "Except for the two of you, everyone else has a tutor to help them. They have their own tutoring arrangements, so they won't come to take the tutoring classes."

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Doesn't this mean that we are the only two poor fellows in the top ten in terms of magic power?"

Bai Zhenzhen clenched her fists tightly, thinking to herself, "I didn't expect it would be a make-up class that would lower my reputation on campus if I participated."

Teacher Yan's eyes flashed with fighting spirit, and he thought to himself: "These rich people are too disrespectful. They all believe in the tutor and not me?"

"Those private tutors are all sweet-talkers who only know how to cheat people out of money. How can they compare to my 30 years of solid teaching experience in a key high school?"

"Only 2 out of 10 people came. Doesn't this greatly reduce my campus reputation?"

"It's fine if people don't come, but they won't pay for the extra lessons?"

If the students in Class 2 and Class 3 dared to do this, Teacher Yan would definitely call their parents and ask them to come to school to let them know the consequences of ignoring the physics teacher.

But think about the parents of the eight students in the demonstration class...

Hey, parents are so busy at work, we teachers should be more considerate.

She looked at Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen, thinking to herself, "You two poor bastards, try your best to make me proud and surpass those eight guys so that they will come to me for extra lessons in the future."

Various thoughts emerged in his mind, but Teacher Yan remained calm on the surface. He slowly said, "The things that the magic competition will test are completely different from what you usually learn. The total amount of mana is only the basis. The key is the control of mana..."

She projected a diagram of human body movement and began to explain earnestly: "The mana in your body right now is the most basic form of mana."

"And by controlling the flow and route of mana, you can change the form of mana."

"For example, one direction of advancement is sword energy, palm power, and other martial arts uses..."

"Furthermore, it can cause various phenomena such as heating, low temperature, and electrification..."

As she explained, she stretched out a finger, and a sharp wave appeared at the tip of her finger, easily cutting the page of paper in front of her.

After a moment, her fingertips turned slightly red again, reflecting a tiny flame.

"This is the most basic form change of mana."

"Of course, the basic form change relies on basic skills and the control of mana, and its power is extremely limited."

"What really goes a step further and has practical value is the special magic power transformed from various extraordinary skills..."

Listening to Teacher Yan's explanation, Zhang Yu suddenly remembered the cold palm power that He Dayou displayed when fighting him during the monthly exam.

He estimated that it should be a special kind of magical power transformed from some kind of martial arts.

On the podium, Teacher Yan projected an animated picture of the exercise, looked at the two and said, "This is the simplest way to transform sword energy. It can transform mana into a sharp sword energy."

"Just follow what I just taught you and try to see if you can do it."

Bai Zhenzhen looked at the animated effect of the exercise for a while, and after a while she felt a little dizzy.

"This exercise route is too complicated!"

Then she tried it herself again and felt speechless.

The magic power circulated in his left arm, but it could never transform into a sharp aura.

Is this really the simplest route to transform sword energy?

Is this the difficulty of the competition? She felt like she had just learned addition, and then the teacher handed her a linear equation with two variables and told her to solve it.

At this moment, Bai Zhenzhen heard Zhang Yu's voice calling out to her.

"Oh, come and see!"

Bai Zhenzhen turned her head and saw Zhang Yu tapping his fingertips on the notebook and directly cutting out a linear equation of two variables.

Yuzi, your strange face makes me feel sick.
