What’s the point of cultivating immortality if you don’t have money?

After Li Xuelian explained Zhang Yu's situation, she heard a chuckle from the other end of the phone.

"He's indeed good, but there's no need to take him in."

Li Xuelian asked in confusion, "Why?"

Realist Xinghuo laughed heartily, his tone full of joy: "I've already found the real genius."

"Also a first-year high school student, only 15 years old, and it only took him half an hour to master the Heavenly Martial Heart Refining Technique."

"And he doesn't have any contracts yet."

At this point, Realist Xinghuo couldn't help but laugh again.

Li Xuelian said in surprise, "There's such a freak?"

Realist Xinghuo chuckled and said, "I told you long ago, Kunxu First Layer never lacks geniuses, only people to invest in them."

"Like the top scorers in each subject of the college entrance examination, and the top scorers overall, you should know how amazing those people are."

"But Kunxu First Layer has several of these geniuses every year, and there's a group of people who are not much worse than them, emerging year after year, like leeks that can never be cut clean."

"There are too many geniuses, but I couldn't find them in the past, always being one step ahead by others, but now I've finally found one first."

Li Xuelian looked in Zhang Yu's direction with some regret and asked, "Don't you want to sign this Zhang Yu by the way?"

Realist Xinghuo: "Forget it, our family's resources will be invested in the real genius next, so don't distract our energy."

...

Inside the conference room next to the art exhibition.

Li Xuelian looked at Zhang Yu in front of her and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, this classmate, my father has other important matters to attend to, so I'm afraid he won't be able to take you as a disciple for the time being."

She said sincerely, "However, you can use the Heavenly Martial Heart Refining Technique with confidence in the future, and I will give you a copy of the specific usage rights."

Li Xuelian's eyes were full of admiration as she looked at Zhang Yu: "Finally, I would like to give you 10,000 yuan in my personal name."

"Don't rush to refuse, this gift is purely out of my appreciation for your talent."

"I hope that when we meet again next time, you have already been admitted to a prestigious university."

"Oh, right, regarding the videos you recorded, they also involve the copyright of the Heavenly Martial Heart Refining Technique, so I need you to delete them..."

After a while, watching Zhang Yu's leaving figure, the smile on Li Xuelian's face gradually faded.

Although Realist Xinghuo didn't plan to take him as a disciple, Li Xuelian didn't intend to make an enemy of this young man with good talent.

Anyway, the right to use the Heavenly Martial Heart Refining Technique, or the 10,000 yuan, were just a piece of cake for her.

She herself had lost count of how many small gifts she had given to some young geniuses like this.

However, most of them eventually faded into obscurity and had long been forgotten by her.

After resolving this matter, Li Xuelian went to meet several important guests, and then couldn't wait to find her father.

She was too curious about the peerless genius that Realist Xinghuo mentioned.

...

On the other side, at the art exhibition that had not yet officially ended.

Bai Zhenzhen looked at Zhang Yu, who had just come out of the conference room, and asked, "How was it? Did you refuse Realist Xinghuo? Did Li Xuelian make things difficult for you?"

Zhang Yu recalled Li Xuelian's admiring look just now and shook his head: "She didn't make things difficult for me."

"Before I could even speak, she rejected me, saying that Realist Xinghuo had other important matters..."

"But she gave me an extra 10,000 yuan at the end."

Listening to Zhang Yu's statement, Bai Zhenzhen curled her lips: "Standard excuse."

"Maybe she checked your information and found that you weren't that good."

"For example, your usual monthly test scores are too bad, you don't have any sterilization records, your muscles don't grow well, and you owe a lot of money..."

Listening to Bai Zhenzhen's words, Zhang Yu curled his lips: "A Zhen, you lost and you're still not convinced, and you're starting to attack me personally, right?"

Seeing Zhang Yu's smug look, Bai Zhenzhen couldn't help but grab his shoulder and ask, "What the hell did you cheat on?"

"Tell me quickly, did you borrow money to bribe the staff and comprehend the Martial Arts Diagram in advance!"

Looking at Bai Zhenzhen's ugly face full of jealousy, Zhang Yu chuckled.

Keep going, A Zhen, watching the ugly state of you weaklings after defeat is my current pleasure.

Just as the two were talking, Qian Shen also walked over from not far away.

He looked at Zhang Yu with a solemn expression and asked, "Do you deliberately get bad grades on your usual exams?"

The test of the Celestial Human Martial Arts Diagram allowed Qian Shen to improve his resistance to high-scoring people.

But he was extremely shocked that low-scoring people could have performance that exceeded his.

Seeing Zhang Yu shake his head in denial, Qian Shen said unwillingly, "Impossible, if you didn't deliberately get bad grades, why would your talent and scores be so mismatched?"

"Huh?" Zhang Yu thought for a while and said, "Exams can't fully show a person's potential, right..."

Qian Shen directly interrupted Zhang Yu and said excitedly, "Impossible!"

"The college entrance examination and the six major high school courses are customized by the Ten Major Sects, and are a system specifically used to evaluate high school students. After countless experts and strong people have verified and adjusted it, it is already the most optimal, most scientific, and most immortal way to evaluate a person!"

"Each subject and each point perfectly reflects the all-round gap between people, including the superiority of bloodlines, the backwardness of regions, and the incompleteness of evolution..."

Looking at Qian Shen's extremely serious appearance, Zhang Yu realized that he had misunderstood him before.

You're not a simple score discriminator, you've evolved from score discrimination to bloodline discrimination, regional discrimination, and even racial discrimination, and have become a supporter of score caste, right.

In short, in Qian Shen's expression, high scores are awesome, they are elites, they can be superior and confident, while low scores are trash.

This is the worldview he has built up over the years, and it is also the source of confidence for him as a high-scoring student, and it can even be said to be the rule of all key high schools.

"Hmph, you don't want to admit it, fine."

"But I will tell the school about the situation here, and I hope you will show your true skills in the next monthly exam and stop getting a score of 550, which is an incomplete evolution."

Looking at Qian Shen's leaving figure, Zhang Yu felt as if he had been scolded by him, but also as if he hadn't.

Bai Zhenzhen next to him nodded thoughtfully: "There is one point in all the nonsense he said that you should pay attention to."

"The school will definitely know about the situation here, and they may sign a contract with you then."

"Sign a contract?" Zhang Yu looked at A Zhen curiously. He had vaguely heard of this before, but he was still in the dark about what the situation was.

Bai Zhenzhen explained: "You know, not everyone in high school is as rich as Qian Shen's family."

"For many poor but high-achieving and talented students, they need someone to invest in them."

"And the school itself is one of the investors."

"Generally, after the second year of high school starts, a group of outstanding students will be selected based on their performance and grades in the first year of high school, and a contract will be signed to invest money in them."

"Of course, there are also a very small number of students who are too outstanding and too dazzling. In order to prevent them from being signed by others first, the school will discuss the contract with them in the first year of high school."

Speaking of this, Bai Zhenzhen straightened her chest: "Like me."

Zhang Yu: "Why didn't you tell me about this before?"

Bai Zhenzhen rolled her eyes at Zhang Yu, as if to say, don't you know what kind of person you were before?

Bai Zhenzhen: "Based on your performance at the art exhibition, the school will definitely talk to you about the contract. As for whether to sign it or not..."

Seeing the tangled expression on Bai Zhenzhen's face, Zhang Yu asked, "Is it so difficult to choose whether to sign it or not?"

Bai Zhenzhen sighed: "It can't be said that it's difficult to choose. In fact, it's easy to choose whether to sign it or not based on your personal situation."

"But the difficulty lies in whether a person's understanding of themselves is right or wrong."

Bai Zhenzhen looked at Zhang Yu and asked seriously, "For example, what kind of cheat did you use to comprehend the Celestial Human Martial Arts Diagram this time?"

But halfway through her words, Bai Zhenzhen waved her hand again: "Forget it, mothers don't ask about cheats, and you don't need to tell me."

"In short, if you are really confident and decide to take the top ten universities, then don't sign this contract now."

"Conversely, if you are not sure that you can get into the top ten and just want to get into an ordinary university, then sign the contract directly as long as it's not too bad."

Zhang Yu heard this and thought thoughtfully, and asked a few more questions about the details of the school and the contract.

Just a moment after the two were talking, someone else found Zhang Yu, but it was a delicate and lovely girl.

"Hello, classmate, you were so handsome just now, can I add you as a friend?"

Similar things had happened many times since Zhang Yu had just comprehended the Celestial Human Martial Arts Diagram, and even Lian Tianji from Ziyun High School had asked to add him as a friend.

Zhang Yu had gradually become accustomed to this, and sighed in his heart before adding the other party.

"Hehe, even beautiful girls are taking the initiative to contact me?"

Zhang Yu asked, "Which school are you from, classmate?"

The other party said, "I'm Wu Qingqing from the Saintly Women's Academy, from the honors class."

Zhang Yu's face suddenly stiffened. To say that in this Kunxu world, people who look like men may not be men, but students from the honors class of the Women's Academy... they must have been men before.

Wu Qingqing seemed to feel the change in Zhang Yu's face and smiled slightly: "Yo, you're quite old-fashioned."

"Do you think that our class is full of people who got into key high schools by taking advantage of loopholes, and whose actual grades are a mess?"

"I'm telling you, the top students in our class are no worse than you, you'll know next time in the city-wide unified exam."

Zhang Yu looked at the other party's leaving figure speechlessly.

No, is that what I'm thinking about?

Kunxu, in this damn place, even transsexuals have to look at their scores first, right.

"Congratulations." Zhou Tianyi walked over from the side: "Did you sign a contract with the Golden Core Realist?"

Zhang Yu looked at Zhou Tianyi in front of him and suddenly remembered that the other party didn't seem to have much presence in front of the Celestial Human Martial Arts Diagram just now.

Next, Zhang Yu worked as a security guard while communicating a few words with acquaintances or unfamiliar guests.

As today's security work was completely completed, his savings also increased by 1600 and 10,000 yuan, soaring to 13,300 in one fell swoop.

After paying off the remaining 5,000 loan for this month, Zhang Yu's account balance fell to 8,300, and he was finally temporarily free from worrying about collection.
