Zhang Yu is a key student our Civil Engineering Department is nurturing. To win the competition, our department will naturally give full support, and we will never allow Zhang Yu to be humiliated on the field.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Director Gao had already taken his stand alongside True Lord Ciji.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gao Chongguang, you really spare no expense.\" Feng Yuhan looked at the two standing together and slowly said, \"What kind of spell has Ciji cast on you? Aren't you afraid of losing your investment?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>True Lord Ciji said, \"The Civil Engineering and Artifact Refining departments have always cooperated. For instance, our Artifact Refining Department already has a student named Feng Tingting who transferred to Civil Engineering for a dual degree. This time she can also help with the Civil Engineering competition, and in the future, Artifact Refining and Civil Engineering will carry out more collaborations.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Director Gao said coolly, \"Our Civil Engineering Department also has Mo Shangjin, who has also cultivated the divine strength of the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain-Shifting Art. As soon as his injuries heal, he can take the field at any time to provide support, fully safeguarding Zhang Yu.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Yuhan frowned and said, \"You two have said all this, but how can you guarantee that Immortal Soldier University and Heavenly Demon University won't invest even more?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the end, raising the cost to take risks... it's completely unnecessary. No matter how much you reduce the risk, it's still not as safe as letting Zhang Yu stay quietly in the university city.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It would be best for him to stay in the laboratory. Only by staying in the laboratory can we ensure he won't be touched by outsiders.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the two sides were deadlocked, Zhang Yu spoke up: \"Teachers, I have an idea that should guarantee my safety on the field.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Yuhan gave him a cold glance and was about to say that when the teachers were discussing, what right did a student have to interrupt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for letting Zhang Yu prove his combat power, in his view, that was even more pointless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How strong was strong enough? How much combat power and construction ability could guarantee that Zhang Yu wouldn't be defiled on the field?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Feng Yuhan's view, Zhang Yu couldn't prove anything, couldn't guarantee anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then Zhang Yu said, \"I can surrender.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Yuhan was slightly taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yu continued, \"I surrender extremely quickly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As soon as I notice anything wrong, I will surrender immediately.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even if I lose the match this time, I will never give the opponent a chance to humiliate me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yu said earnestly, \"I understand. Not letting the opponent humiliate me is more important than winning or losing the next match.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Director Gao said from the side, \"When we fought Vajra University before, it was Zhang Yu who led the surrender and was the first to run out of the arena. This student really has a sense of responsibility and decisiveness in this regard.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Zhang Yu's Foundation Establishment Domain suddenly activated, and a line of text appeared before everyone: Foundation Establishment cultivator Zhang Yu has decided to cease combat and withdraw from the competition. Please stop attacking immediately, or bear the consequences yourselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yu said, \"This is a custom-made Foundation Establishment Domain I paid for.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The control can be handed over to Teacher Gao. As long as Teacher Gao thinks the situation is wrong, he can activate my Foundation Establishment Domain at any time, and I will directly withdraw from the match.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If the opponent still tries to attack after I withdraw from the match, not only can the referee stop them, but the teachers can also descend to support me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>True Lord Ciji said coolly, \"I will keep an eye on the competition venue and can protect Zhang Yu at any time without needing to use any extra funds.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Director Gao also said, \"And me. That means there's no risk on the field, right, Teacher Feng?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>True Lord Ciji: \"The same principle applies outside the venue. As long as we do a good job of keeping Zhang Yu's information confidential, ensure stable communication at all times, and have us ready to descend and support at any moment, there will be no risk.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Furthermore, the cost of these measures won't be very high, but the benefits include promoting project results, boosting the stock price, and the possibility of seizing the military-grade armor design plans.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Feng Yuhan frowning without responding, Divine Lord Wanhua chuckled and said, \"Well, look at you all discussing back and forth—hasn't a method been worked out?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ciji, Qingmu, you two finalize the specific details of the plan and send it to the Research Office for review.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiaofeng, the Research Office should get this done quickly, no later than tomorrow—pass the approval.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If anyone still has objections, raise them now, so we don't delay things later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Yuhan said, \"It is indeed a method, but if the match is lost and support and protection are constantly needed, then what promotional effect is there? It might even backfire and harm the project, dragging down the stock price.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Besides, True Lord Ciji and True Lord Qingmu, isn't your working time also the school's time? If you go out to support Zhang Yu during work hours, won't that affect your work? Isn't that also a loss for the school?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Therefore, I suggest that if Zhang Yu surrenders in the next competition, it proves that the costs and risks outweigh the benefits, and we should not let him go out again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Divine Lord Wanhua nodded: \"What Xiaofeng says also makes sense. You two have work to do, so you truly cannot constantly watch over Zhang Yu. Let's settle it that way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing Divine Lord Wanhua's calm gaze, True Lord Ciji and Director Gao both nodded slightly and agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Divine Lord Wanhua looked at Zhang Yu and said with a slight smile, \"You are a clever young man. I like talking to young people, and I like talking to clever people. Not like some old fossils, who only cling to the past, lack change, and just wait for death every day.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one present followed up on Divine Lord Wanhua's words, for the old fossil he spoke of was likely a Divine Transformation realm expert. It was fine for Divine Lord Wanhua to say it, but the teachers and students present dared not comment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lord of Myriad Transformations sighed and said, \"This time, Magnetic Pole True Lord and Azure Wood True Lord have jointly fought for this opportunity for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But you must remember: victory or defeat is a small matter, but losing one's integrity is a great matter.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do well from now on. I look forward to your performance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right after Zhang Yu and the others left, a hint of an unfathomable smile appeared on Lord of Myriad Transformations' face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a field of vision visible only to him, streams of information had already appeared before him through the Spirit Realm Network not long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>",1211,"2026-05-29T04:54:59.518Z","2026-06-01T04:29:12.818Z",1,"deepseek-v4-flash","f22733035676db057619e023904ff730583a246238bd43d5c7ad04d7ac6e0bb8","no-money-what-cultivation-chapter-480","no-money-what-cultivation-chapter-478",711,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fno-money-what-cultivation-cover.jpg"]
