Chapter 227: Teaching-Grade Dharma Remains

Zhang Yu thought to himself: "The High School Saint Body gives me a stronger drug metabolism than my opponent."

"If the other party accumulates a large amount of medicinal toxins, it might damage their body and affect their performance."

"But that won't happen to me."

"Relying on the medicinal toxins stored in the High School Saint Body, detonating them with the Spring-Autumn Infinite Zen, and finally combining it with the Martial Dao Saint Fetus's eruption... this is my true full power."

At the same time, Ye Lingxiao, feeling the battle intent emanating from Zhang Yu, thought to himself: "This person's strength is formidable."

"With his level... his level now... I reckon if he had been in the last session... if he were here now, then his strength would indeed be very strong."

"To completely suppress him, I too must use my full power and surpass my limits once more."

Just as Zhang Yu and Ye Lingxiao were each pondering the current match situation and considering their subsequent moves, Huang Zichou also began to have the two remove their Mystic Armor Spirit Roots, preparing for the next test.

At the same time, a light screen flickered before Huang Zichou's eyes, displaying images of Foundation Establishment cultivators wielding the Mystic Armor Spirit Roots.

"Both candidates are only at the Qi Refining level, capable of merely activating the most basic 100% power of the Mystic Armor Spirit Root."

"If this Divine Spirit Root were activated by a Foundation Establishment cultivator, injecting sufficient mana into it, its power would be more than ten times stronger."

Zhang Yu, watching the images of a hundred-meter-long fire dragon and a tornado-like gale, couldn't help but lick his lips again and thought: "This is definitely an advertisement, right?"

He glanced at the audience seats: "Is it an advertisement for those universities?"

Then, somewhat reluctantly, Zhang Yu withdrew the mana from his combat suit, feeling the fire dragon behind him and the whirlwind beneath his feet gradually dissipate. As he watched the Mystic Armor barrier around him fade away, he sighed inwardly: "When will I ever have such a Divine Spirit Root?"

Although it was merely a test mode and he hadn't truly used the Mystic Armor Spirit Root, Zhang Yu could already sense its immense power.

"This combat spirit root's combat capability is on an entirely different level from a Heavenly Spirit Root."

"And this is when my strength is insufficient. If I could use this Mystic Armor Spirit Root to build my foundation, wouldn't I be outrageously strong?"

"No, no, this Mystic Armor Spirit Root is a combat spirit root. My goal is above Foundation Establishment, at least Golden Core, even Nascent Soul. I should still use a cultivation spirit root..."

But the next moment, Zhang Yu realized he was daydreaming too much. The reality was that he couldn't even afford a Heavenly Spirit Root, let alone this Divine Spirit Root.

After Huang Zichou retrieved the Divine Spirit Root, he began to explain the content of the second test.

"As everyone knows, once mana reaches 100 units, one can install a piece of Dharma Remains."

"And the higher the mana, the more pieces of Dharma Remains one can carry and bear."

"Therefore... the higher the cultivation level and the greater the financial resources of a cultivator, the more Dharma Remains they possess."

"So the second test is to see which of you two has a higher adaptability of your physical bodies to Dharma Remains..."

As he spoke, Huang Zichou's divine power rippled, and he sent over a series of devices, surrounding Zhang Yu and Ye Lingxiao, turning the scene into something like an operating table.

"In this test, I will use the Ministry of Health's talismans to temporarily sever part of your connection to your own bodies, redirecting your neural signals to the Dharma Remains."

"This does not mean you will truly possess Dharma Remains, nor will you need to provide mana for them. It merely simulates the sensation of replacing your flesh with Dharma Remains."

"Throughout the process, you will simulate three pieces of Dharma Remains. At the end, the synchronization rate between you and the Dharma Remains will determine your score for this test..."

In Huang Zichou's explanation, the synchronization rate of Dharma Remains represents the host's control over them.

The higher the synchronization rate, the better the host can unleash the power of the Dharma Remains.

Conversely, if the synchronization rate is too low, not only will the Dharma Remains' power be ineffective, but there is also a risk of losing control and falling into demonic deviation.

As Huang Zichou spoke, Zhang Yu and Ye Lingxiao had already lain down on the operating tables, surrounded by wires, patches, monitoring instruments...

In the audience, the Husky Head watched this scene and remarked: "This test is quite well designed."

"Zhang Yu and Ye Lingxiao must have undergone brutal training and drug stimulation to obtain such powerful bodies."

"Having gained such formidable bodies through hellish training, they have overcome countless obstacles with this physical strength. However, because of this, their mind and body are deeply intertwined, making it easy for them to place too much importance on their own flesh."

"Many freshmen, precisely because their original bodies were too strong and their mind-body connection too tight, find it difficult to adapt to Dharma Remains, ultimately resulting in poor grades."

"The path of physical cultivation requires the ability to both hold on and let go. While continuously strengthening oneself, one must also be able to accept newer and stronger Dharma Remains. This is the righteous path of the immortal sect..."

Regarding this evaluation from the Husky Head, the Cat Head beside him did not respond. It was only after seeing the first piece of Dharma Remains brought out by Huang Zichou that he spoke: "Is it an eye Dharma Remains from Tianyan Company?"

"Tch, it's definitely an advertisement targeting us."

"Are they hoping more universities will purchase their teaching-grade eye Dharma Remains?"

Meanwhile, on the examination field, two crystal-clear eyeballs, like gems, floated before Huang Zichou. He introduced them: "This is the latest eye Dharma Remains developed by Tianyan Company—Farsight..."

Listening to Huang Zichou's introduction, Zhang Yu learned that the grades of Dharma Remains were divided into Teaching Grade, Professional Grade, and Enterprise Grade.

Above Enterprise Grade were the Military Grade and Immortal Sect Grade, similar to magical treasures and techniques.

What Huang Zichou held in his hand now was a Teaching Grade eye Dharma Remains.

Once implanted, this Dharma Remains not only allowed visual retrieval of various data but also had a spirit that possessed simple intelligent recognition, intelligent search, marking, and other functions.

Of course, besides these basic functions, its most important feature was connecting to the network and observing the spirit realm.

Huang Zichou said: "...In daily university life, using eye Dharma Remains to connect to the network for payments, communication, consultations, and so on is quite common."

"The spirit realm is even more common in universities. Without eye Dharma Remains, one would be as blind as a bat in university..."

At the same time, Huang Zichou thought to himself: "That is precisely why, upon enrollment, all students are uniformly issued eye Dharma Remains by their universities, to prevent difficulties in campus life."

"These eye Dharma Remains are purchased in bulk by each university and then charged to the students."

"Students either pay in installments or temporarily mortgage their own eyes."

"However, eye Dharma Remains are not expensive. Most people can pay them off before graduation. But unless one stays on the Second Layer, eye Dharma Remains are useless on the First Layer. Most university graduates who return switch back to their own eyes and sell the eye Dharma Remains they used in university to recoup costs."

But Huang Zichou understood that although a single Teaching Grade eye Dharma Remains was not valuable, the bulk purchases by universities added up to a large quantity.

Tianyan Company, specializing in eye Dharma Remains, had clearly set its sights on this market, which is why they invested in advertising here.

Looking at the representatives in the audience, Huang Zichou thought that the advertising fee they had collected was still too low.

After Huang Zichou finished his introduction, as the Ministry of Health's talisman activated, Zhang Yu felt a scorching divine power pierce through his eyes.

The next moment, his vision went black, and he lost all sight.

Not only did he lose his vision, but with Zhang Yu's control over his body, he couldn't even feel the existence of his eyeballs. It was as if that scorching light had gouged out his two eyeballs.

This sensation made Zhang Yu very uncomfortable, even causing an inexplicable tension.

At the same time, Huang Zichou said: "Don't panic. I've only temporarily severed your connection to your eyes. Your eyes are still intact."

"Now I will redirect your neural signals to the Tianyan brand eye Dharma Remains—Farsight."

"This is an eye Dharma Remains that even Qi Refining students with 100 mana units can adapt to. The process is simple, and the burden is light. Don't be nervous..."

Before Huang Zichou finished speaking, Zhang Yu felt a sharp pain in his eyes, followed by a blurry patch of light and shadow.

Huang Zichou continued: "Farsight will automatically adapt to your visual system. It may be blurry at first, but it will clear up in a moment."

Like the focusing process of a camera, at first, everything Zhang Yu saw was blurry, covered in a mosaic.

But soon, he felt his eyeballs contracting and expanding, and the surroundings became increasingly clear.

Yet the scene before his eyes was completely different from the examination field just moments ago.

"This is..."

Looking up, he saw a vast, boundless, cloudless azure sky.

Looking down, there was a magnificent, boundless expanse of ocean spreading out like an endless blue silk.

At the same time, Huang Zichou's voice came again: "We have temporarily spread out a layer of the spirit realm on the examination ground. You should all be able to see the scene of this spirit realm now, right?"

The next moment, as Huang Zichou's divine power swept, the vast sea and sky before their eyes vanished without a trace.

But on the originally cold examination ground, their eyes were now filled with advertisements for various spiritual roots and Dharma relics, various promotional videos, various discounts and special offers.

Zhang Yu was slightly stunned, and thought to himself: "Is this the true god, the view of the examination ground in the eyes of the representatives from the second-tier universities?"

"Information that can only be seen after implanting an ocular Dharma relic."

At this moment, Zhang Yu mused: "If... the spirit realm entered through a spirit realm mask is a virtual world,"

"Then the so-called unfolding of the spirit realm in reality is like AR technology, merging the virtual environment with reality, a real world that can only be seen clearly with an ocular Dharma relic."

"Without an ocular Dharma relic, can one not even be worthy of seeing the advertisements up there?"
