Chapter 1597 - 918: Climbing to the Summit, I Am the Peak

As Zhang Yu and Tai Yue Bai were conversing, the whole land was undergoing unprecedented and intense changes in thought waves.

Whether in the material world, the Spirit Realm, or the Law Realm... the seemingly silent beings were already having tumultuous feelings within their hearts.

Looking at the increasing debt, the growing amount of work, and the divine lights symbolizing the True Gods coming and going in the sky, more and more people felt that bankruptcy, unemployment, and death were inching closer to them...

In this gradually collapsing test ground, more beings realized... the end times were approaching, and the entire world was heading towards bankruptcy.

"Why? Why did we suddenly go bankrupt?"

"We obviously haven’t spent much! Why do we owe so much debt...?"

"Where did all the money go?"

The happiness brought by weekends quickly vanished under greater pressure, heavier burdens.

As debt coiled around people’s necks like a noose, as unemployment spread to them like a virus, and as the savings in their accounts and their Immortal Dao Potential kept evaporating, Zhang Yu’s call was like igniting a fire in their hearts.

"Can those laws that force us to repay... and mortgage all be frozen too?"

"These damn laws, it’s not us who caused the catastrophe! Why should we owe so much debt?"

"Why am I forcibly resurrected and made to owe debt?"

"I still want to ascend the Immortal Path, I don’t want to repay a lifelong debt that I can never finish."

At this moment, more and more beings began to resonate with the concept of "Effective Period of Laws" and support the freezing of laws.

And this led to... a surge in the Thought Wave Amplification of "Effective Period of Laws."

The many students watching also noticed this change.

Countless data appeared before Yue Qinglan’s eyes, and she was shocked in her heart: "These beings have long accumulated a resistance towards the old conventional laws in their hearts."

"It’s Zhang Yu! This guy not only fights with us, but he has been preparing for today since at least half a month ago, using the effect of ’the more you comply, the more you oppose’ to gradually make the beings not agree with the conventional laws."

"That’s why... that’s why there was a surge in crime rates before. Because the accumulation of non-recognition of conventional laws already existed, more beings chose crime before and after bankruptcy."

On the other side, Di Xuan was also collecting data and observing the situation.

Di Xuan analyzed in his heart: "Under Heart towards Immortal Dao, as long as there’s a glimmer of hope, these beings will not give up. And Zhang Yu’s Effective Period of Laws is precisely their ray of hope in this desperate situation."

Di Xuan watched Zhang Yu’s figure and thought to himself: "Is this also in your plan, Zhang Yu? Using this doomsday to turn the beings of this land into your chips for victory."

"I initially thought it was a misstep for you to freeze the laws of other students early and go one-on-one with Tai Yue Bai."

"But it seems I was mistaken..."

Di Xuan sighed in his heart: "You want to not only outdo our new laws but all laws in the entire test ground, using this apocalypse as fuel to ignite your first law."

On the other side, Lie Jinghong focused on the battle between Zhang Yu and Tai Yue Bai after his laws were frozen.

Feeling the dramatic change in thought waves, Lie Jinghong thought to himself: "Declaring war on all laws? Indeed... only such courage is worthy of becoming the law among laws, worthy of being heavily utilized by the Immortal Emperor."

As the numerous students analyzed the situation in their hearts, Bu Yingshu took a step forward, desperately sending messages to Zhang Yu: "Zhang... Yu! Quickly stop!"

At this moment, Bu Yingshu’s mind was a tangled mess.

"Has Zhang Yu gone mad? The Legislation Ceremony isn’t even over, and he wants to declare war on all laws?"

"He’s becoming so troublesome, how can I use him in the future? How can he help me become immortal?"

"My unparalleled talent hasn’t even reached its peak yet!"

Bu Yingshu’s mind was filled with countless thoughts, message after message shooting towards Zhang Yu, the voices crossing the Spirit Realm... reaching Zhang Yu’s ears.

Bu Yingshu: "Zhang Yu! Stop inciting the evil in all beings, you’re disrupting Kunxu’s order! It’s most forbidden!"

Zhan Xian, hearing this, lightly said in Zhang Yu’s mind: "The evil (è) of all beings? Better call it the evil (wù) of all beings. It’s the anger of all beings, it’s hatred, it’s unwillingness..."

Without answering Bu Yingshu, Zhang Yu felt under the surge of thought waves, his "Effective Period of Laws" was once again surpassing Tai Yue Bai’s "Weekend Off."

Accompanied by the support of the surging thought waves, Zhang Yu’s name on the leaderboard flashed more and more intensively, eventually seeming to break through layers of restraints and topped the chart again.

First place! 1st order law! Zhang Yu!

"Brother Tai..."

Zhang Yu took a step forward, slowly saying: "The vacation should end now."

Boom!

With the furious surge of thought wave amplification, Tai Yue Bai’s laws could no longer suppress Zhang Yu.

From this moment on, when "Effective Period of Laws" and "Weekend Off" conflicted, "Effective Period of Laws" became the priority.

Zhang Yu reached out a hand, seemingly about to tear, freeze Tai Yue Bai’s laws!

But facing this scene, Tai Yue Bai remained calm, surging Immortal Qi poured out, and in an instant, the underlying structure of his law technology changed.

Previously, Lie Jinghong used [Devour the Universe] to dynamically adjust the underlying technology of the law to resist Zhang Yu’s breakthrough.
