My friend, this is too great!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing everyone's gazes upon him, Gong Shu Jin quickly clenched his hands that were nearly out of control and said repeatedly: \"I... I'm happy for the Senior Disciple!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gong Shu Jin forced down his ever-rising grin and shouted: \"Happy that the Senior Disciple transferred to the Artifact Refining Department!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xinghan, watching this from the side, curled his lip and said: \"Damn... anyone who didn't know would think it was you who successfully transferred departments.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought to himself: \"Isn't it just that after Zhang Yu leaves, you think you can get first place in the class? Who doesn't see through that little scheme.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shi Yunxiang, while taking photos, was contemplating whether to post them on his moments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Earlier, Zhang Yu utterly defeated Xiangshan, drawing endless curses from the demon descendants. If the demon descendants found out I'm friends with him, I'd definitely be called a demon traitor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But now it's different. Before, it was human Zhang Yu beating up demon descendant Xiangshan; now it's an Artifact Refining king beating a Civil Engineering dog... who would still complain?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he hadn't studied at the Celestial Demon University, Shi Yunxiang still had a good understanding of that university and the demon descendants — it was a world where race equaled major, major equaled race, and different races belonged to different departments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the eyes of the demon descendants, Zhang Yu's department transfer was roughly equivalent to turning from a lower race into a higher race. Not just beating up Civil Engineering's Xiangshan, no matter how much he insulted Xiangshan, it would be perfectly justified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ying Xin looked at Gong Shu Jin and said: \"From now on, don't call him Senior Disciple anymore. After all, you're not in the same department. I think 'Senior Classmate' is fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gong Shu Jin immediately caught on and nodded repeatedly: \"Right, right, right, you're right. I need to change how I address him, I really should.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, many of the surrounding workers and security guards were all watching this rare scene with envy and jealousy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tsk, having 'Artifact Refining Department' hanging over your head really feels different.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look, the 48th rank in the Artifact Refining Department — isn't the font size a bit bigger?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's not about font size. Look at Artifact Refining versus Civil Engineering — one has 'artifact' and 'refining,' the other is 'civil' and 'engineering.' Just from the name, you can tell Artifact Refining has more class than Civil Engineering.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, Ji Yuanshu, having heard the workers' comments around him, hurried over as well. He stared at Zhang Yu's retreating figure and remained silent for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes were fixed tightly on the top of Zhang Yu's head, as if trying to see clearly whether it said Artifact Refining Department or Civil Engineering Department.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the distance was too far—the Polar Tiger-brand eye implants just couldn't get a clear view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can't see clearly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just can't see it clearly right now, damn it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That day, Ji Yuanshu didn't work overtime. He went to Fu Xinyao, who provided free services, and vented all his displeasure, envy, resentment, and hatred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zhang Yu! What right do you have to transfer to the Artifact Refining Department?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You worked on the Civil Engineering construction site for three years—what do you know about artifact refining?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Corruption, all corruption! This Ten Thousand Methods University is so shady I can't see a thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ping Han listened to Ji Yuanshu's words, his body and mind repeatedly shocked by the explosive news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zhang Yu... transferred to the Artifact Refining Department? How could he get into the Artifact Refining Department?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon learning this news, Fu Xinyao frowned: \"Damn, I've wasted my time on these Civil Engineering students. Next, I need to find a way to get in touch with the Artifact Refining Department.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Artifact Refining Department... Tsk, that's a bit troublesome.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, on the other side, after leaving the construction site, Zhang Yu discovered that after his department transfer, the world had indeed become much broader.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the department ranking displayed above his head, the people passing by would always show a trace of respect in their eyes, silently stepping aside, not daring to block Zhang Yu's path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eye implants were constantly receiving friend requests, forcing Zhang Yu to disable the add-friend function.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the advertisements appearing in his eye implants had changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The various Polar Tiger-brand and local ads disappeared, replaced by high-end brands like Myriad Dao Artisan Sect and Vajra Mystic Creation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chaotic advertising styles on the streets had also changed—neon-light ads were replaced by high-class, elegant billboards and magnificent light-and-shadow effects, clearly targeting the wealthy students of the Artifact Refining Department.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the terrain had changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Was there a shortcut here originally?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this... the Artifact Refining Department's dedicated anti-gravity passage?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So there's a magic artifact shop that only the Artifact Refining Department can see?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh? Was there originally a street on this floor?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait... why does it feel like so many things have gone up in price?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After walking a few sections as a member of the Artifact Refining Department, Zhang Yu suddenly realized how different the Ten Thousand Laws University City looked through the eyes of the Civil Engineering Department and the Artifact Refining Department.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the eyes of Artifact Refining Department students, the university city is bigger, more luxurious, more convenient, and also... more expensive!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looks like from now on, I'll have to consider having someone from the Civil Engineering Department buy things for me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1010,"2026-05-29T04:54:59.518Z","2026-06-01T04:29:12.818Z",1,"deepseek-v4-flash","d74ae3e93aa837d8e86f3859db6b9a001b9dda390643625662ee4cb1571a510d","no-money-what-cultivation-chapter-504","no-money-what-cultivation-chapter-502",711,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fno-money-what-cultivation-cover.jpg"]
