Zhang Yu glanced at Jin Napu, who was covered in projections, and Bai Zhenzhen, who also had projections on her chest and back, a hint of envy flashing in his eyes.

It was impossible for him not to be envious of being covered in these projections, as they represented the company’s recognition, the attention of countless people, and, most importantly, money, Spirit Coins, and immortal potential!

Even Wen Wuya and the other two who came to support them had projections all over their flying swords, which accompanied them as they cut into the battlefield.

Not to mention Kuang Tianqing, whom they had just fiercely fought, who was covered in the logos of giant corporations.

However, the battle had been too intense and time too short, leaving Zhang Yu no opportunity to think about these things, so he had subconsciously ignored them all.

“After such a desperate battle, I don’t have a single one on me. What a loss.”

The longing for projections flashed and faded in his mind, and then Zhang Yu saw other students arriving at the scene.

However, after confirming that Kuang Tianqing had left, everyone dispersed again, heading towards their respective team’s different rally points.

Zhang Yu looked at Jin Napu from Jingang University and asked, “Senior, want to go together?”

Jin Napu chuckled, “No, no, we’re heading in different directions.”

Knowing that Kuang Tianqing had targeted the two of them, Jin Napu had no interest in traveling with Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen, as he couldn’t be sure if Kuang Tianqing would still track them and launch a sneak attack.

However, while Jin Napu wasn’t interested in traveling with them, he was very interested in information about Kuang Tianqing.

Especially since, although he had observed for a while after arriving at the battlefield, the time was too short, and he hadn’t personally faced Kuang Tianqing. His grasp of information was certainly not as good as Zhang Yu’s.

Jin Napu said, “Junior, after this battle with Kuang Tianqing, you must have gathered a lot of information about her, right?”

Zhang Yu smiled slightly, not casually giving away information.

He knew that information about Kuang Tianqing, especially about the various military-grade Daoshu she possessed, would be one of his important bargaining chips in the future.

Zhang Yu: “Senior, let’s add each other as friends first.”

“My thoughts are a bit chaotic right now. I’ll talk to you after I’ve healed my injuries and organized the information.”

After adding each other as friends, Zhang Yu watched Jin Napu quickly depart, then turned to Bai Zhenzhen and said, “A’Zhen, let’s go together. You can come with me to Wanfa University’s rally point first.”

Bai Zhenzhen, however, looked at Zhang Yu’s pale face and asked, “Yuzi, are you okay?”

After continuously fighting Kuang Tianqing head-on and being struck by Bai Zhenzhen’s life-extinguishing sword qi, Zhang Yu now looked completely severely wounded.

Zhang Yu, however, waved his hand dismissively, “I’m fine, I’m in great shape right now.”

“Let’s hurry up and go. The sooner we meet up, the safer we’ll be.”

The next moment, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen’s figures flashed as they quickly rushed towards Wanfa University’s designated location.

Along the way, Bai Zhenzhen’s gaze swept over Zhang Yu, recalling the scenes from the battle, and she thought to herself, “I’m too weak.”

“The current me facing Kuang Tianqing… has no chance of winning at all.”

“But Kuang Tianqing will definitely have another battle with us later.”

She tried hard to recall the feeling of erupting with black sword qi, thinking, “That is the ultimate power that Jǐ Qíng Jiàn Dào can achieve in the Foundation Establishment stage. Only that can threaten Kuang Tianqing.”

“I must master how to use this power.”

“And maintain my sanity while using it.”

Bai Zhenzhen recalled the feeling she had when she saw Zhang Yu almost being humiliated, and her heart couldn’t help but stir again, “I will never let Zhang Yu be insulted again.”

“This feeling of powerlessness…”

Under the intense anger, fear, tension, and a sense of urgent purpose, the divine root and sword qi within Bai Zhenzhen’s body were changing little by little.

Meanwhile, as Zhang Yu moved at high speed, he also continuously activated his body’s vitality, slowly beginning to heal himself.

At the same time, his eye socket was constantly monitoring various messages in the four-school group and the school team group, paying attention to all kinds of information on the battlefield.

“Wen Wuya! We need support here!”

“Senior Wen Wuya, help, help, help!”

“Calling Senior Wen Wuya, can you share your reconnaissance data? There will be a generous reward.”

As Wen Wuya’s full-field offensive unfolded, she and the other two students from Tianjian University immediately became hot commodities in the group, becoming targets for countless requests for support.

Zhang Yu, watching this scene, thought to himself, “Tianjian University’s immortal cultivation technology and Wen Wuya’s support are indeed crucial in this match. In fact, it can be said that if we’re going to deal with Kuang Tianqing later, Wen Wuya’s support is indispensable.”

“Then what… can I do in the upcoming team competition?”

“Or rather, how should I confront Kuang Tianqing next?”

After a face-to-face battle with Kuang Tianqing, Zhang Yu had to admit that there was a significant gap between him and her.

While contemplating how to counter Kuang Tianqing, formations, magic treasures, information, support… thoughts flashed through Zhang Yu’s mind.

“The current me cannot fight Kuang Tianqing alone.”

“But the team competition environment provides me with an opportunity to fight her.”

“By fighting Kuang Tianqing, I can gain more attention.”

“As long as I can demonstrate greater value and a higher presence, I can get investments from companies and schools, and have more resources to improve my strength.”

“Kuang Tianqing…” Zhang Yu’s gaze sharpened, and he made up his mind, “We are her prey, but she is also our prey.”

Resist her! Surround her! Drive her back! Defeat her! Or even… kill her!

Zhang Yu knew that with every step forward, he could gain greater benefits, greatly increasing his chances of winning the top ten league championship.

At this moment, a hint of realization seemed to dawn on him: “Team competition is not just a battle where the strong crush the weak and clear obstacles.”

“It is also an opportunity for the weak to devour the strong!”

“And the specific approach…”

Zhang Yu’s gaze swept over Wen Wuya, who was active in the four-school group in his eye-socket.

“Just like Wen Wuya, I must draw Kuang Tianqing into my own track.”

“In my domain, in the areas I specialize in, I will have a chance to defeat her like Wen Wuya, devour her popularity and traffic, and acquire more nourishment to grow.”

“And the area I’m best at in this match…”

Ideas gradually formed in his mind, and a smile appeared on Zhang Yu’s lips.

“Kuang Tianqing, it’s my turn to devour you next.”

As Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen gradually approached the rendezvous point, they could see a turbulent storm swirling ahead.

Bai Zhenzhen exclaimed, “This is…”

Zhang Yu nodded, looked at the messages in the school team group, and said, “It’s Dao Qiankun.”

“According to him, his Daoshu power has covered an area of 100 li. Any students from Tianmo, Baigu, Youming, or Hehuan universities who enter this area will be attacked by him.”

Speaking of this, Zhang Yu’s expression was also solemn, and he thought, “As expected of a strong contender for the championship like Kuang Tianqing, my senior’s strength is also unfathomable.”

Meanwhile, along the way, various messages kept coming in from the four-school group.

Jiu Tianliu from Wanfa University’s finance department, alone, broke into Youming University’s rally point and rescued a captive.

Tian Shengong, the top student of Xianbing University, controlled a mobile fortress, turning it into a prison, and had already captured three captives, sending them into the prison.

As Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen rushed into the storm, they soon saw a calm area at the center of the storm circle.

In this calm area, puppets of various shapes and sizes were digging mineral veins, constructing fortresses, and altering the terrain.

One of the puppets detected Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen’s presence, turned to them, and sent a message: You’ve arrived?

Zhang Yu knew that this terrifying army of puppets originated from Yan Qianji.

But what Zhang Yu didn’t expect was that the other party also possessed civil engineering skills and could control so many puppets for construction.

Zhang Yu: Did you build all this?

Yan Qianji: These are all useless skills.

Yan Qianji: Go in quickly.

Yan Qianji: Senior Dao has been waiting for you for a long time.

The next moment, a dashed line guiding the direction appeared before Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen.

Looking at the message sent by the other party, Zhang Yu’s heart stirred, and he replied: Senior Dao has been waiting for me?

Yan Qianji: Everyone else arrived long ago, except for you.

Yan Qianji: If it weren’t for waiting for you, he would have been unable to wait any longer.

Zhang Yu nodded silently, then, guided by the dashed line, arrived at an underground prison built by the puppet army.

He saw Dao Qiankun with his back to him, and in front of him was a bloody phantom bound by heavy forces.

Zhang Yu’s gaze swept over the bloody phantom, and he thought to himself, “The second-ranked student from Youming University… Xue Shenzi.”

Dao Qiankun slowly said, “I and others happened to encounter this guy on the way here, so we conveniently captured him.”

He turned to look at Zhang Yu and asked, “How is Kuang Tianqing’s strength now?”

Zhang Yu’s heart stirred, thinking that the other party was indeed concerned about information regarding Kuang Tianqing.

Zhang Yu directly said, “I’ve recorded the entire process of my confrontation with Kuang Tianqing this time.”

With that, Zhang Yu sent the video to the other party, then added, “I also have some information about Kuang Tianqing’s Daoshu, which I can summarize into text and send to you, Senior.”

Dao Qiankun’s gaze towards Zhang Yu grew increasingly satisfied and appreciative, and he asked, “What do you want?”

Zhang Yu said, “Senior, I think this team competition is a good opportunity to deal with Kuang Tianqing.”

“Unite with other schools to weaken Kuang Tianqing’s immortal potential, destroy her military-grade Dharma Skeleton, gain more information about her… and even kill her once.”

Dao Qiankun said indifferently, “Uniting with other school teams isn’t that simple.”

Zhang Yu said, “We can start with Tianjian University.”

Dao Qiankun looked at Bai Zhenzhen, “Can you represent Tianjian University’s intentions?”

Dao Qiankun then said, “But Wen Wuya is a hot commodity right now; everyone is begging for their support.”

Zhang Yu said, “But I think Wen Wuya is waiting for you.”

“Tianjian University’s tactics have significant flaws.”

“What they need most right now is you.”

“And with A’Zhen and Wen Wuya, that’s equivalent to uniting with Tianjian University’s team. It’s only a matter of time before Jingang and Xianbing come over.”

Dao Qiankun looked at Zhang Yu and suddenly laughed, “Keep going.”
