At this moment, the door to a gravity room opened and Jenny Auna walked out. Curious about the situation, she opened the door and saw Lu Yin right away. Her expression turned ugly, and she glared at him before slamming the door and leaving.
The students around them were stunned; what was going on?
Lu Yin blinked. What was going on?
Was this woman crazy? Why did she look like that when she saw him? Wasn't it just a threat? Did she know about the marriage between the Auna and Zishan families?
Lu Yin's guess was right; Jenny Auna did know about it, but Torry Auna had accidentally revealed it.
Although the marriage between the Auna and Zishan families had not been named, even an idiot would know that it had to be the heir. The Zishan family had been much more prosperous than the Auna family back in the day, and now Lu Yin was the only surviving member of the Zishan family. As for the Auna family, Jenny Auna would be the one to marry Lu Yin, as long as the marriage was carried out.
Jenny Auna didn't have a good impression of Lu Yin to begin with, and she immediately contacted her family after learning of this matter. The answer she received made her heart turn cold; this marriage was very likely to be carried out. Jenny Auna instantly felt her entire life turn dark, which was why she had come to the gravity room to vent her frustrations. She hadn't expected to run into that bastard again; she felt like she had stepped in dog shit.
Not long after Jenny Auna left, Lulu Mavis happily ran over and entered Lu Yin's gravity room.
Lu Yin looked over in surprise, "Lulu Mavis?"
"Oh, it's you. Just in time. My hands are itching, let's spar," Lulu provoked.
Lu Yin didn't refuse; he was curious about the Mavis family's battle techniques. Lulu had displayed terrifying strength and extreme speed in the capital, and he wanted to know if that strength was a battle technique or something else. If it was a battle technique, he wondered if he could secretly learn it.
Lulu licked her lips excitedly when Lu Yin didn't refuse. She had been paying attention to him for a long time, and it wasn't easy for him to defeat a Nightking, even if he had just awakened. "Don't hold back, I want to see what you got from the inheritance stone. I'm coming, watch out!" Lulu's body vanished. She was able to maintain such a terrifying speed even in thirty times the gravity, leaving only an afterimage behind as if she had merged into the day.
Lu Yin immediately activated his Sirius Art, but Lulu's palm was still fast enough to break through the limits of Sirius. Lu Yin dodged to the side, but Lulu's palm slammed into the wall, shaking the room.
Lulu stared at Lu Yin in surprise, "Not bad! Again!" as she spoke, she charged at thirty times gravity as if it was nothing to her.
Lu Yin stared intently at Lulu's incoming fist. He raised his own hand and punched out, the Daynight Punch alternating between black and white.
.
......................................
Within the gravity room, Lulu was shocked, "This is the battle technique you learned from the inheritance stone?
It's nothing special. "
Lu Yin clenched his fists and stared at Lulu in shock. Aside from her speed, she hadn't used any battle techniques in that punch. She'd relied purely on brute force to block the Daynight Punch. Could it be that the Mavis family's innate gift was brute force?
"Continue!" Lulu shouted, increasing her speed and sweeping her leg towards Lu Yin.
He dodged again, keeping a close eye on Lulu's legs. The next moment, Lulu disappeared again and attacked him from all directions.
Lu Yin couldn't learn Extreme Speed from Qingyu, but he could see some clues from Lulu's display of it. His feet unconsciously imitated Lulu's footwork and gradually brought it into the Roving Step. His speed increased slightly, but only slightly. Just as he had guessed, the Daynight clan's battle techniques had a unique rhythm that couldn't be learned outside of the legacy stone. Even if he imitated them, there was a limit to it.
Lulu landed with a backflip and stared at Lu Yin in shock, "You were imitating my White Flash, weren't you?"
Lu Yin nodded, "I couldn't."
Lulu laughed, "You were actually imitating the White Flash, and a little at that. Interesting, you're an interesting person."
Lu Yin was confused, "Is that strange?"
Lulu smiled, "Of course it's strange. It's common knowledge that a race's battle techniques can't be imitated. Many race's battle techniques need to be passed down in a specific environment, and even powerful techniques can't be successfully imitated. This is the foundation of the great clans in the universe, but you were able to imitate it a little. You're a strange fellow, not only did you inherit the Daynight clan's battle technique, you even imitated the White Flash.
Hahaha, "Lu Yin didn't understand what was so funny," Are you still going to continue? "
"Yes, continue. But thirty times the gravity is too low, how about we raise it a little?" Lulu suggested slyly.
Lu Yin raised an eyebrow, "Sure, how much?"
Lulu Mavis thought for a moment and stretched out four fingers.
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed, forty times?
How ruthless, he believed that even an elite Sentinel like Raas wouldn't be able to withstand forty times the gravity. Was this woman testing him?
Very quickly, he adjusted the gravity to forty times.
His body immediately sank, his legs feeling like they were filled with lead. The terrifying pressure almost made him unable to make a sound; this was a gravity that only a Melder's body could withstand, and he was barely able to withstand it.
Across from him, Lulu's expression was ugly, but she stubbornly stared at him and gestured.
Lu Yin found it strange, "Are you having a hard time as well?"
"Of course not," Lulu gritted her teeth.
Lu Yin was speechless; he could tell that this brat was forcing herself to endure forty times the gravity, but she was still acting as if nothing had happened.
At that moment, the door opened and Xia Luo walked in, smiling, "How about I join in?"
Lulu Mavis pouted, "Shameless Melder."
Xia Luo laughed, "I won't use any battle techniques, and I won't attack first."
Lu Yin shrugged, "It doesn't matter, it's just training anyway. Let's begin." He then attacked Xia Luo at the same time as if they had agreed.
Xia Luo easily dodged the attacks; forty times the gravity wasn't difficult for him as he was a Melder.
After a while, the two couldn't even touch his clothes. Lulu grew anxious, "Hey, are you here to mock us?"
Xia Luo raised one leg to block Lu Yin's Skybeast Claw and lashed out with the other, "I'll go easy on you."
Lulu snorted and clenched her right fist so tightly that the air trembled. Lu Yin subconsciously retreated, but there was a muffled sound as Xia Luo was forced back a step, "What strength!"
Lulu was pleased with herself and blew on her fist, looking at Xia Luo provocatively, "If you want to fight, seal your cultivation first."
Xia Luo smirked, "Alright, wait for me." He then left the gravity room.
The Perseverance passed through the wormhole once more and entered the second filament. There were less than ten days until they reached the Capital Star.
Lu Yin, Lulu, and Xia Luo sparred frequently in the gravity room, having fought more than a hundred times over the past five days.
Lulu was a battle maniac, and those with great strength tended to have violent tendencies. Lu Yin wasn't surprised that she liked to fight, but he was surprised that Xia Luo would rather seal his cultivation to fight them. This sort of battle shouldn't be of much use to him, but Lu Yin felt comfortable with him nonetheless.
On the sixth day, another person joined them: Zhang Dingtian. He usually trained in a gravity room far away from the rest, but had accidentally bumped into Lu Yin and decided to come here.
Lu Yin had always thought that Zhang Dingtian was a monster, but even so, he hadn't expected him to be able to withstand forty times the gravity. His skin had cracked and blood had splashed everywhere, but he hadn't retreated.
As an Earthling, he had no combat skills, yet he was able to suppress the strongest of Parlie and the other academies. His strength was enough to fight Raas, and he was one of the rare realmbreakers. Even Sigmund Mathers had praised him, saying that he could make an exception and join the Thirteen Imperial Squadrons.
Xia Luo admired Zhang Dingtian, even leaving Lu Yin and Lulu behind to personally spar with him.
This was very beneficial to Zhang Dingtian, as Xia Luo had been guiding him to develop his own battle techniques.
Over the next two days, another person joined the group. It was Seruzen, the Ascetic Monk from Earth. When he first appeared, Lulu was so frightened that she hid behind Lu Yin. It was obvious how intimidating his appearance was. He gave off the feeling of an otherworldly expert, and normal people would not dare to make a move against him.
Seruzen couldn't withstand forty times the normal gravity, so he simply opened the door and stepped in with one foot. Once he got used to the gravity, he stepped in with the other foot. This left everyone speechless, and the door to the gravity training room was always left ajar. Because of Seruzen's appearance, many people came to watch every day. It was quite attractive.
