Chapter 543: Prototype Refining Begins
Mid-October.
In the dormitory.
Zhang Yu, who had just finished his cultivation and returned from the Taiqing Realm, saw the good news from Wanfa University.
Looking at the content, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Is the Top Ten League over?"
“This year seems to be ending faster than previous years.”
"Dao Qiankun from the Taoism Department took second place in the Doufa. Jiu Tianliu from the Finance Department took first place in the Douyun. And Yan Qianji from our Refining Department took second place in the Doubao. Senior Sister Ye Xingli took tenth place in the Doubao..."
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Although Senior Sister's magic weapon design ability is impressive and has earned her a place in the top five of the 100 schools, her ability to directly compete with magic weapons is still a step behind the top students from other schools."
However, this also made Zhang Yu feel more deeply about his senior sister's talent in designing magic weapons, and made him want to copy her Tao Seed even more.
Zhang Yu thought again: "As a disciple of the Divine Transformation Stage, Yan Qianji is already the face of our Weapon Refining Department. To think he lost this time, he failed to take first place?"
Zhang Yu looked at the remaining rankings and concluded, "This year's first place in the Duel of Magic and the Duel of Treasures competitions went to Tianmo University and Youming University, respectively."
"Tianmo and Youming are indeed the three strongest schools among the top ten, just like Wanfa."
Looking at the names on the leaderboard, Zhang Yu sighed inwardly, "The top ten leagues are truly filled with experts."
Thinking that he had to step over so many top students and defeat them one by one to obtain the immortal skills, Zhang Yu felt worried, nervous, and excited.
At this moment, he also saw Bai Zhenzhen's ranking of 7th in sword fighting.
"Ah Zhen's grades are pretty good this time. He's only in his senior year and already got this high ranking..."
Zhang Yu sent a congratulatory message to Bai Zhenzhen.
After thinking about it, he sent another congratulatory message to Ye Xingli.
Ye Xingli: Thank you! I was lucky this time, I will keep working hard
Looking at Ye Xingli's reply, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Alas, Senior Sister always mentioned transferring money when she spoke, why haven't you transferred any spirit coins recently?"
Zhang Yu even had a strange illusion in his heart, that is, when he talked to Ye Xingli recently, it felt like he was talking to people in the Songyang hometown group.
At this moment, Bai Zhenzhen's invitation emerged.
With Zhang Yu's consent, his thoughts had crossed many spiritual realms and arrived in a room.
This was the secret room that the God of Seven Emotions had opened for him and Bai Zhenzhen in the spirit world. It was also the place where he and Bai Zhenzhen had met every day for a period of time.
The moment they met, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen hugged each other tightly.
Feeling Zhang Yu's arms tightly hugging her, Bai Zhenzhen said softly: "Yuzi, I'm sorry, I haven't replied to your message. It's because my mother didn't let me contact you."
Zhang Yu felt Bai Zhenzhen leaning quietly against his chest. Seeing this good brother who had always been full of energy and now in a rare state of tranquility, he smiled and said, "I'm glad you're okay."
Bai Zhenzhen asked, "What about you? Did you encounter any demonic followers?"
The two hugged each other and told each other about their experiences during this period.
Of course, in the room opened by Qiqing for them, it was impossible for Zhang Yu to tell the true story of his life-and-death battle with the Demon Sect's Golden Elixir. He just repeated what he had already said to the righteous gods.
When talking about the top ten leagues, Bai Zhenzhen also told the news that the top ten leagues will be restructured next year.
Zhang Yu was shocked when he heard what Bai Zhenzhen said. He said, "That means the results of the Ten Major League starting next year will determine the distribution of benefits among the top ten universities, and the competition will become more intense?"
"There's also the option of choosing your own immortal sect technique." Bai Zhenzhen said solemnly, "Choosing your own technique from the Daozang catalog, this reward is too attractive."
"It's hard to say whether such a good thing will happen again in the next Top Ten League. It's very likely that this opportunity will only come this time."
Whenever she thought of this, Bai Zhenzhen couldn't help but sigh: "The Daozang Catalogue was originally used by the ten major sects to record all kinds of immortal information in the world in order to build a new immortal system. It is said that it contains all the exercises in the world."
"Even if we discount this statement and not all the techniques are recorded, or if the ten major sects impose some restrictions on the selection range, there are still too many techniques to choose from, and they are all at the immortal gate level..."
"If expert-level techniques are just regular powerful techniques, and military-level techniques are starting to become unreasonable, then immortal-level techniques can change the landscape and strike down techniques below the immortal-level. They are completely on another level."
When Zhang Yu heard this, he nodded repeatedly, and an infinite yearning arose in his heart.
When Bai Zhenzhen said this, her voice dropped again: "Unfortunately, next year... time is too tight."
Zhang Yu asked, "Will the competition format change?"
Bai Zhenzhen nodded: "The specific situation has not been announced yet, but according to rumors, all military competitions will be combined into one event."
"One event?" Zhang Yu was shocked. "Doesn't that mean... all the students competing in magic, treasure, luck, sword, and other events will have to compete on the same track?"
Bai Zhenzhen nodded, then sighed softly, "What a pity! If it had been two or three years later, we could have also competed."
"Next year..."
Thinking of the top three academic masters in this sword fight, as well as the other geniuses who were originally on different tracks, Bai Zhenzhen sighed again.
With her current strength, there is already a gap between her and these senior students.
However, Bai Zhenzhen is confident that as long as she is given more time, she will definitely catch up with these senior students in the future.
However, one year is still too tight, especially with the conflict between the top ten universities breaking out this time, and the bait of choosing your own immortal skills next year, these senior students will definitely get the full support of the school and various supports from the God of Transformation.
This makes it even more difficult to catch up with these upperclassmen within a year.
Zhang Yu nodded slightly when he heard this, but a fighting spirit was ignited in his heart.
He looked at Bai Zhenzhen and said, "No matter what, it would be a pity to give up such an opportunity."
"In the coming year, we will try our best to compete."
Feeling the seriousness in Zhang Yu's eyes, Bai Zhenzhen nodded in agreement.
At this moment, the voice of the Seven Emotions God rang out from all around: "In this year's Ten Major Leagues, a total of 11 students died in all military competitions. Any one of them is stronger than you."
"And next year's Big Ten tournament will only be more intense and more brutal."
"At the same time, the next batch of contestants will be even better. It is very likely that this will be the batch with the strongest average student strength since the inception of the Ten Major League."
"Zhang Yu, if you participate rashly, you might die."
"And your death might cause Zhenzhen's Extreme Sword Art to backfire."
Zhang Yu was slightly stunned when he heard this, then looked at Bai Zhenzhen and said to her, "Ah Zhen, don't worry, I won't die. No matter you or the top students from other schools, you can't kill me."
Bai Zhenzhen nodded slightly, but she thought in her heart: "When Yu Zi is in danger during the competition next year, even if I am disqualified, I will intervene in the competition and protect him."
The two of them continued their conversation, and before leaving, Bai Zhenzhen reminded Zhang Yu, "Yuzi, try to take fewer projects outside of school from now on."
"After this economic crisis, the power of the demonic cults has greatly increased. Especially since you know that these demonic cults have mastered the technology to hijack the spirit world, they will definitely take more actions."
"And with the serious conflicts among the schools, I'm sure there will be all sorts of overt and covert fighting surrounding the Big Ten Tournament over the next year."
"The wild will definitely become more dangerous..."
…
After ending his contact with Bai Zhenzhen, Zhang Yu focused more on his own studies and practice in the following days.
After all, there is only less than a year left until the next Top Ten League. Even with his extraordinary talent, the time is very tight and he must seize every minute and every second.
A few days later, Zhang Yu finally achieved his original goal by training in Taiqing Realm and pushed the production skills of more than ten magic weapons to level 20.
The various refining techniques contained in these magic weapons cover the refining techniques needed to refine the prototype of the Tianrihuangshen.
At this point, Zhang Yu could finally begin the formal refining of the prototype machine.
As for this process... Zhang Yu didn't plan to continue to immerse himself in the Taiqing Realm for simulation practice.
"The refinement of the prototype of the Tianri Huangshen must be done step by step. Every refining, every improvement, and every refinement process must be fully recorded."
"This way, it will be easier for me to pass the trial."
If he could directly push the production technology of the Tianri Huangshen prototype machine to level 20 in Taiqing territory, and then make a splash in reality and refine this magic weapon to level 20 on the first try...
"It's truly astonishing, but if there's no trace of reality, I'm afraid it will be considered fake, which will cause me a lot of trouble."
"Even if, after all the twists and turns, I'm proven not to have fabricated anything, I'm afraid it will still arouse unnecessary interest from many people, wondering why I was able to reach level 20 in one go on my first attempt at refining a prototype."
Zhang Yu thought that this prototype of the Tianrihuang God... was not easy to push on the Dharma body of the God of Qiongjiang.
"Let everyone witness with their own eyes that I used my absolute talent to improve the prototype machine step by step."
Zhang Yu made up his mind and planned to refine it into a level 1 Tianrihuangshen first.
Then, it was repeatedly refined and improved in the laboratory, and the Tianri Huangshen was upgraded to level 20.
In the process of repeated refining, one can also use the convenience of the Feather Book to improve his mastery of the design drawings to level 20.
However, before starting the refining process, Zhang Yu did some calculations.
Due to the interference of the economic crisis, Zhang Yu's income has dropped sharply in the past period of time. Apart from the 40 spirit coins subsidy from the laboratory, he has almost no other income from work. Instead, he used his own savings to advance the salary for the company's employees.
Fortunately, all the practice during this period was completed through the Taiqing Realm simulation, which did not cost Zhang Yu a penny, unlike the previous practice of refining techniques which consumed a lot of money.
Even so, his bank balance at the moment was only less than 120 spirit coins, which was obviously not enough to complete the refining of the prototype machine.
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Refining the prototype will cost at least 300 spirit coins. Considering the cost of overspending and the cost of repeated revisions and refinements, at least 400 spirit coins, or even 500 spirit coins would be a safe bet."
"Of course, this is for other people. For someone like me who possesses a prodigy in weapon refining, I might be able to save a lot of spirit coins."
"But generally speaking... my current spirit coins are definitely not enough."
“You have to make money.”
However, although the total number of spirit coins is quite different, Zhang Yu still has confidence.
On the one hand, there are 120 spirit coins, which are enough for him to start working and make money while refining equipment.
On the other hand, it is because... with the end of the economic crisis, there are opportunities to make money everywhere in the university town.
