Chapter 433

Around the arena that appeared empty, due to the spiritual realm and livestream, the thoughts of many people had gathered.

Su Yanyang was also watching the competition, thinking to himself: "The battle of the two prodigies of the coin dao—it all depends on who has more money. Either way, it will definitely prompt many people to buy more Qiongjiang Coins."

Then he looked at Ji Yuanshu, who was standing beside Ping Han, and thought: "As expected of someone who wants to switch to the finance department, his gambling nature is strong enough."

Just then, Su Yanyang overheard the conversation between Zhang Yu and Ping Han. Hearing Zhang Yu once again deny that he traded coins, a hint of doubt appeared on his face.

"Is this guy telling the truth or lying?"

Behind Ping Han, Ji Yuanshu and the other four teammates stood together.

Watching Ping Han face off against Zhang Yu, Ji Yuanshu had actually considered whether to quit the team after Ping Han joined.

But he quickly realized one thing: "Who wins or loses this battle no longer matters."

"Both sides are people who have bought Qiongjiang Coins. No matter who wins this battle, it will be like adding fuel to the fire, definitely making Qiongjiang Coins even more popular within Wanfa University."

The first thing Ji Yuanshu did upon realizing this was to use up all his remaining wealth and go all-in on Qiongjiang Coins with 100x leverage.

After exhausting his last immortal-path potential, Ji Yuanshu knew that he could no longer transfer to another team, since he had no money left to buy a substitute spot on another team.

"It doesn't matter. As long as I make a big profit on this wave of Qiongjiang Coins, I can slowly catch up on my comprehensive score."

"After all, competitions happen every year, but such a good opportunity to make money doesn't come along often."

There were many people with similar thoughts, until the moment when Zhang Yu, during his conversation with Ping Han, said that he did not trade coins...

Regarding the rumors over these past few days, Zhang Yu himself felt somewhat helpless.

"I don't know who the hell spread the rumor that I trade Qiongjiang Coins and went in with 100x leverage."

Thinking of Director Gao's request, Zhang Yu simply raised his voice and shouted: "The value of Qiongjiang Coins is not stable; it relies too much on market confidence, and it is overly concentrated in the hands of Hehuan University, making it easy to manipulate the price."

"I will not touch such a high-risk investment."

"Ping Han, I advise you to take your profits now and exit early, to avoid going bankrupt again."

"Qiongjiang Coins have been rising for so long; the risk has become higher and higher."

Upon hearing Zhang Yu's outburst, Ping Han had not yet responded, but the spiritual realm was already in an uproar.

Some people immediately spent money to project lines of subtitles, which appeared directly above Zhang Yu.

"Qiongjiang Coins have been going up and down for so many years, and you never warned us. Now that everyone is making money, you come out to warn?"

"If you don't trade coins, what are you talking nonsense about? Can you not speak randomly in a field you don't understand?"

"A person like this actually got the Military Certificate? What a tragedy for Wanfa University!"

"Even the emotional coins had rising risks. Qiongjiang Coins have only been rising for this long, and you're already warning of risk?"

"Does Zhang Yu dare to reveal his own holdings?"

If the students watching just a moment ago were chatting and laughing, then at this moment the spiritual realm seemed to turn into a raging storm, with countless malicious intents converging toward Zhang Yu, as if to tear him apart.

Zhang Yu glanced at the lines of text floating above his head, then looked at the information continuously popping up in his eye sockets, and shook his head helplessly.

Fuji laughed and said: "You stepping out to hit the brakes at a time like this—of course you'll get scolded."

Zhang Yu: "It doesn't matter. Since Director Gao wanted me to do it, I'll just give a reminder. Being scolded or not won't hurt me."

On the contrary, as soon as Ping Han raised his hand, the curses in the spiritual realm immediately stopped for the most part.

Pointing one hand at the coin price chart above his head and the other at the Qiongjiang Coin price on his chest, Ping Han said: "Right while Zhang Yu was talking nonsense just now, our Qiongjiang Coin has gone up another 0.01 spirit coins."

Oh!!!!!

The cheers of countless people surged through the spiritual realm.

Spreading his arms as if embracing the void, Ping Han said with a confident expression: "Everyone, when Qiongjiang Coin was at 0.1 spirit coins, some people didn't believe it would rise."

"When it was 1 spirit coin, some people said it would drop."

"When it was 10 spirit coins, quite a few people told me it was time to stop."

"But facts have proven that they were all wrong."

"And we have been winning until now, and we will keep winning!"

As Ping Han spoke these words, the projection behind him showing how to join the investment guidance group also brightened.

And the cheers in the spirit realm grew even more intense.

Above Ping Han, a large amount of text projected by viewers spending money appeared.

"Qiongjiang coin has risen to 10,000 spirit coins!"

"Go Ping Han! Quickly beat this black-mouth to the ground."

"I want to see Zhang Yu beaten to his knees!"

In an instant, the situation was clear: the more the audience supported Ping Han, the angrier they were at Zhang Yu.

And soon, the attacks on Zhang Yu turned into attacks on the entire competition team.

Che Yufei, Shi Yunxiang, and others were also watching the rapidly jumping information in their eye displays.

At this moment, members of both sides felt the anger and hostility of countless viewers. Shi Yunxiang felt his head go numb and thought, "Why did Zhang Yu provoke them?"

Yu Xinghan scanned the situation in the spirit realm and muttered to himself, "There are many traces of paid trolls."

The next moment, following the referee's instructions, the two teams that had been standing at the entrance filed into the arena.

To reduce costs, due to the increasingly intense competition, the original two-half competition process had now been changed to a single session.

Both sides would simultaneously build and attack/defend, and finally compare their building completion levels.

As soon as they arrived at the construction site, Ping Han said to Ji Yuanshu and the other three, "You five stay here and build. Leave the rest to me alone."

After speaking, he ignored the feedback from Ji Yuanshu and the others, and with a flash of his figure, he shot out and rushed wildly toward Zhang Yu's location.

Ping Han had no interest in bringing his teammates along; he just wanted to defeat Zhang Yu severely by himself, and even defeat Zhang Yu's teammates in the process.

He wanted those experts, those professors, those school leaders to open their eyes and see clearly that he was the most deserving recipient of this year's civil engineering department military certificate.

At the same time, watching the constantly jumping group-joining information on his eye display, he realized this was a great opportunity to promote himself and his guidance group.

"Zhang Yu, thank you for criticizing the Qiongjiang coin."

"Facing this great trend, the more you criticize, it will only further accelerate, accelerate the growth of the Qiongjiang coin, and accelerate my growth."

On the other side, Ji Yuanshu watched Ping Han's departing back, but felt the fortune of heaven and earth surging in — it was the support of more and more people for them.

He sighed in his heart, "As merely Ping Han's teammate, I already share a lot of fortune. If it were a true financial genius, or an existence like the Qiongjiang Divine Lord, how much fortune blessing could they gain every moment?"

When Ping Han arrived in the arena, he saw Zhang Yu already standing there alone.

Ping Han said coldly, "Just you alone?"

Zhang Yu said calmly, "I alone am enough."

Zhang Yu understood in his heart that this was also Director Gao's intention.

If he still needed his teammates' help to defeat Ping Han, how could he prove the value of his military certificate?

And Zhang Yu looked at Ping Han opposite him, guessing that the other party had similar intentions.

Ping Han knew that many people were watching the livestream, so he deliberately raised his voice and shouted, "Zhang Yu, they say you had a higher kill count in the military certificate exam, so you beat me."

"Today, I won't compete with you in construction; let's just compare who is better at fighting."

With that, Ping Han put his palms together and then fiercely struck out with a palm.

The ground beneath his feet rose like a tsunami, surging toward Zhang Yu in a sky-covering, earth-overturning manner.

Facing this attack, Zhang Yu changed his palm seal and also countered with Xiao Sanhe.

He pressed down with his palm, and the overwhelming sand and mud seemed to be struck by an invisible giant hand, exploding with a boom, turning into towering smoke and dust that surged in all directions.

As soon as the intense fight began, first was a mutual contest of Xiao Sanhe.

The earth quaked, sand and mud shot into the sky, accompanied by rumbling thunder. In the center of the battlefield, it was as if two giant beasts were tearing at each other, erupting into an endless sandstorm, churning heaven and earth into chaos.

"Good!"

With a loud shout from Ping Han, the sky full of smoke and dust was suddenly shaken apart.

"It was worth preparing this for you specially."

"This money wasn't wasted."

Several beams of light broke through the dust and sand, shooting directly toward where Ping Han was standing.

Amid crackling explosions, each beam revealed a dazzling metallic luster, and like living beings, they coiled around Ping Han's body.

"Armor?" Zhang Yu's gaze sharpened as he recognized what was on Ping Han.

Armor was a type of equipment that had been passed down since ancient times and had always existed; it was something Zhang Yu knew of but was extremely rare to see in Kunxu.

That was because it was a type of Dharma treasure specifically used for combat, with a very narrow range of applicability, having nothing to do with most people in Kunxu.

Ping Han said coldly, "That's right. This Tianyuan Armor was specially prepared by me for this battle."

At this moment, Ping Han's entire body was covered in a thick layer of armor. On the black armor, the light of the celestial star tracks emerged, corresponding to the thirty-six meridians of the human body. As the magical power within Ping Han circulated, streams of Gang Qi continuously burst forth.

And at the joints of the armor, the sinews of coiled dragons faintly appeared, emitting waves of hot blood and Qi.

Watching this scene, Zhang Yu understood in his heart that all these structures of the armor represented larger volume and greater weight, but also higher magical power reserves, more modular functions, and greater immortal-path output… These were advantages that mere human-sized Dharma remains did not possess.

Hoo!

With a breath from Ping Han, streams of hot air came out of his mouth, raising the surrounding temperature by a notch.

At the same time, the coin prices and trend charts originally projected onto Ping Han's body were now adjusted by him to the outer side of the armor.

Seeing the coin price of 16.88 jump up again on Ping Han's chest, cheers rose in the spiritual realm. Countless people were cheering for Ping Han and cheering for the Nectar Coin.

"Zhang Yu, the immortal path takes money as the path. Not trading coins means your innate money-making ability is one step weaker than mine, and your upper limit of immortal-path potential is lower. So how can you fight me?"
