Chapter 498

Magnetic Pole True Lord: "Loans were originally meant by the school to meet the capital requirements for each department's expanded reproduction, yet some people treat them as their own money bags..."

Chain Pivot True Lord snorted coldly: "Magnetic Pole! You departments only know blind expansion, and when you lose money you expect the school to subsidize you. Isn't it our Finance Department that's trying every way to cover the shortfall? Who exactly is thinking only of their own money bags? Who is thinking of the school and the Ten Thousand Laws?"

"I just don't understand. The Finance Department has been loyal and devoted to the school, working tirelessly. How many spirit coins have we taken out to subsidize you? How is it that the more money we spend, the greater the grievance we receive?"

With the direct confrontation between Magnetic Pole True Lord and Chain Pivot True Lord, light and thunder roared in the spirit world.

The Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Tower suppressed the information in the spirit world, freezing the originally freely flowing information like amber.

On the other side, spirit coins roared, and vast stretches of the spirit world network were directly contracted, then the traffic fees of the spirit world skyrocketed.

As the Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Tower and countless spirit coins shimmered in mutual resonance, like ice and fire, each occupied half the space of the banquet hall.

And those standing in the midst of it all felt that their thoughts could no longer move an inch in the spirit world, and no matter what message they tried, they could neither send nor receive anything to or from the outside world.

At that moment, none of those present dared to offer any resistance.

Watching the conflict between the Artifact Refinement Department and the Finance Department, they all fell silent as cicadas, terrified of making any unnecessary noise and attracting the attention of the big shots from these two ace majors.

Just then, layers of cloud seas emerged from the spirit world, and everyone felt as if they had been yanked from the banquet hall into the sky tens of thousands of meters high, their feet treading in the layered clouds.

At the same time, Perching Cloud True Lord gave a light cough, and in the spirit world projection made of clouds and mist, a lightning-like gaze swept with a boom toward Magnetic Pole True Lord and Chain Pivot True Lord.

Perching Cloud True Lord: "Enough. This is the celebration banquet of the Civil Engineering Department. What kind of spectacle are the two of you making by quarreling? Say what you have to say without throwing wild punches."

Looking at his traffic bill, Perching Cloud True Lord thought to himself: the mere aftershocks of these two throwing hands had caused his traffic fees to surge.

After all, while other teachers and students present could temporarily cut off communication with the outside world, as the vice-chancellor and the spirit world projection, he could not sever communication for even a single moment.

At the same time, deep in the spirit world, the old director stared at the disconnected spirit world projection and cursed inwardly: "Who raised the internet fees?"

He sent a message to Su Yanyang: How is it over there?

On the other side, Chain Pivot True Lord nodded slightly: "The principal is right, Magnetic Pole. I won't stoop to your level today."

Magnetic Pole True Lord: "Ha."

After saying that, Chain Pivot True Lord looked at Zhang Yu and said lightly: "Student Zhang Yu, you don't need to give me an answer right away."

He opened his palm, and beams of light from the spirit world seemed to transmit from afar, forming a glittering golden card in his hand.

"This is an invitation I just had Golden Palace Divine Lord sign, inviting you to visit the Finance Department."

Feeling the penetrating gaze of Chain Pivot True Lord, Zhang Yu wanted to decline again, but felt a hand press on his shoulder.

Then a message from Director Gao appeared in his eye socket: Don't offend him too much; it will be bad for your immortal path at Ten Thousand Laws University in the future.

At the same time, Director Gao sighed inwardly: "If it were only for Zhang Yu himself, it wouldn't have come to this... It must be about the Nascent Soul Dharma Shell, right?"

Perching Cloud True Lord, not far away, saw the invitation and, though he frowned slightly, still said: "Zhang Yu, since the Divine Lord signed the invitation, just accept it."

Everyone present looked at the invitation projection in Chain Pivot True Lord's hand, their eyes growing more surprised, as if they had not expected him to procure an invitation signed by a Divine Lord.

Everyone felt that Chain Pivot True Lord was determined to get Zhang Yu this time.

Chain Pivot True Lord watched Zhang Yu accept the invitation through his eye socket and smiled slightly: "After receiving the invitation, your thoughts can travel directly through the spirit world to the Finance Department. All costs will be reimbursed by the Finance Department. You won't have to pay a single coin..."

As the invitation shattered inch by inch, heaven and earth shook before Zhang Yu's eyes, and the entire world changed dramatically.

The next moment, his mind seemed to race through the spirit world toward the Finance Department.

…

Zhang Yu opened his eyes, looked at the vaguely familiar surroundings, and at the ground paved with spirit stones, and thought to himself: "The Finance Department, huh?"

This wasn't Zhang Yu's first time at the Finance Department; he still recognized some of the scenes here.

At the same time, a figure appeared before Zhang Yu—none other than the strongest student of the Finance Department, ranked second in the entire school, Nine Heavens Liu.

Seeing Zhang Yu appear, Nine Heavens Liu smiled slightly and said: "Student Zhang Yu, long time no see. Today I'll show you around the Finance Department."

With that, Nine Heavens Liu paid no attention to Zhang Yu's reaction and led him deeper into the Finance Department.

"This is the virtual currency trading center. Want to give it a try?"

"I'll lend you these 10 spirit coins. If you lose, it's on me; if you win, the profit is yours. There's a market wave today—if you buy what I tell you, making a few spirit coins in ten minutes shouldn't be hard."

Although Zhang Yu did not participate, watching Nine Heavens Liu make a few spirit coins with a series of operations stirred his heart.

And when he saw the traders around him making transactions of hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of Spirit Coins, he felt an extraordinary complexity in his heart.

Sensing the change in Zhang Yu's expression, Jiutian Liu smiled slightly and said, "When I first visited Wanfa University in high school, the thing that left the deepest impression on me was the Trading Center."

"You know that feeling, right?"
