Chapter 70: Breaking Air in the Gravity Room
Chapter 70 – Breaking Air in the Gravity Room
Prodigy Training Camp, Special Training Room.
The hall was very big, almost as big as a football field.
There were a total of eight entrances to the hall, and all kinds of special training rooms were located in different locations.
At one of the entrances, three boys were talking as they walked out.
"I feel like I've improved a lot. Next time, I'll consider going to 2x gravity room. When the time comes, help me keep an eye. I don't want to have to go to the infirmary with internal bleeding …"
"No problem, but we agreed on a shared room. If you want to try 2x gravity, you'll have to pay the majority of the points."
"Sure, I'll pay half …"
For the students at the bottom tier, it was too difficult to earn points. Every point was precious.
However, the cost of using the Cultivation Room was too high. Therefore, sharing a training room with several people had become the most popular choice at the moment.
Not only could it maximize the value of renting a training room, but they could also take care of each other during training to avoid accidents.
While they were chatting, the three of them saw a figure walking towards them.
The person was only walking, but he was quite fast. In the blink of an eye, the three of them lost sight of the person.
They felt as if a gust of wind blew past their faces.
When they came back to their senses, they found that their bodies had somehow moved to the side, leaving a space for a person to pass through.
“How come there’s such a strong when he passed by?” One of the boys muttered curiously.
"Who cares about the wind. Let's go. We still have work to do." His companion said.
The boy nodded. Just as he was about to continue walking, he suddenly noticed that one of the three was staring at the back of the person who had just walked past them.
"What? Did you see a beauty?" The boy waved his hand in front of his companion's eyes.
His companion's eyes lit up as if he had caught on to something very big. "Did you guys notice the person who just walked past?"
"Who?"
The two of them followed their companion's gaze and only saw that the person had already walked far away.
"So fast!" The two of them stared.
In such a short time, he was already gone. And he was just walking.
"Lu Sheng, that guy is Baihe City's Lu Sheng!" His companion shouted excitedly.
"This guy hasn't left his room since the day after he entered the camp. Apart from the mess hall, he hasn't been anywhere else. He actually came to the training room today, this is a huge news!" The other two's eyes lit up.
"Is it really him?"
"How could it be fake? He just walked past us."
"Quick! Let's follow him!" The three of them did not intend to leave. Driven by their curiosity, they quickly chased after him.
…
"Is this the so-called Gravity Training Room?" Lu Sheng sized up the small room in front of him. There was a huge one-way glass on the wall outside the room, allowing one to clearly see the scene inside the room.
It was empty inside, and the walls were pure black.
There were a total of six such Gravity Training Rooms. Most of them were empty. Only one or two rooms had people standing outside, and their attention was focused on the glass panels in front of them.
"Let's go in and have a look." Lu Sheng took out his ID card and swiped it on the card machine outside the training room.
The card machine showed the number 365.
Lu Sheng had a total of 1,000 points. After staying in the room for so long, he still had a lot left.
"10 points per hour …"
Lu Sheng thought for a bit and decided: "Then let's start with 3 hours."
After all, there was still some time before supper.
The card machine deducted the points, and the total remaining points became 335.
Then the door of the training room made a "beep" sound, and the door automatically opened.
Lu Sheng walked in. There was a small empty space in front of the door. Next to it was a dense list of things to take note of.
"You have to take off your shoes, and you can't bring anything with you …"
Lu Sheng followed the instructions and took out everything from his pocket, put it on the designated shelf, and then walked barefoot into the room.
The floor of the room was made of some unknown material, and it was abnormally soft.
To describe it in a popular phrase, it was like "stepping on shit". When a person walked on it, the floor would slightly sink in.
Lu Sheng walked to the centre of the room. There was a white remote control on the floor.
With just a glance, he knew that it was used to adjust the gravity.
"Let's start with 2x gravity first …"
He did not take a deep breath, nor did he prepare anything. Lu Sheng just casually pressed the start button on the remote control in his hand.
…
"Holy shit, this guy doesn't even need to warm up?"
Outside the gravity room, the three boys couldn't help but blurt out when they saw Lu Sheng reach out to press the start button.
"This guy has been out of the rhythm of the training camp for too long. He doesn't even have basic common sense …"
One of the boys shook his head and said, "The Gravity Training Room is no joke. We're all official martial artists. Our muscles and bones may be fine, and they can withstand sudden changes in external pressure. But the fragile internal organs won't have it easy. If we don't warm up and prepare accordingly, it's easy to cause internal bleeding. Did you forget the first time we went in?"
"Who told him to be so arrogant in the past? It's good to suffer a little and learn a lesson!" Another boy said gloatingly.
The other two nodded in tacit understanding.
Beep~
The sound indicated the activation of the gravity mechanism. The three boys smiled and stared at Lu Sheng in the room, ready to watch a good show.
The glass outside the training room was a one-way glass anyway, so they didn't have to worry about being discovered by Lu Sheng.
"Why isn't there any reaction?"
"Is it because he hasn't activated it yet?"
"It's activated."
One of the boys glanced to the side. There was a small screen outside each room, showing the value of the gravity in the room.
Now the screen showed that 2x gravity had been activated.
"Then why isn't there any reaction at all?"
One of the boys couldn't believe it and moved closer, widening his eyes to get a clearer view.
In the room, Lu Sheng's face was calm, as if nothing had happened to him.
"Even his expression hasn't changed!"
"Could it be …" Just as the other boy was about to voice his conjecture, he saw Lu Sheng suddenly raise his hand and throw out a punch.
The fist was so fast that it was impossible to see it clearly.
Pop!
The three of them were stunned and looked at each other.
"Was that … the sound of a fist breaking through air?"
The three of them were stunned.
The Gravity Training Room was soundproof, so the sound from inside would be weakened and distorted when it reached the outside. So the sound of a fist breaking through air was only the faint sound of a bubble popping in their ears.
"Holy shit!"
One of the boys couldn't help but yell. "Is that for real?! I can't even move a little in 2x gravity, and this guy can make sounds with a punch?!”
Anyone with a bit of martial arts common sense would know. If you want to make the sound of air breaking with your fist, your fist must be fast enough.
The other two couldn't believe it either.
At that moment, they watched as Lu Sheng put down his fist, picked up the remote control, and pressed it.
Beep~
The Gravity Training Room's gravity changed.
The three of them immediately looked at the screen outside the room.
A clear line of words appeared on the screen: 4x Gravity activated.
The three of them slowly opened their eyes and mouths at the same time.
Like triplets, their expressions and movements were synchronized as they turned to look at the scene in the Gravity Training Room.
This time, Lu Sheng, who was in the room, finally showed some reaction.
…
The relaxed and casual look on Lu Sheng's face disappeared, and his expression seemed to be more serious.
He moved his body, got up from the floor, and slowly began to move his arms and legs.
"Fo … Fo …" One of the boys said with a shocked expression. Two exclamation marks came out of his mouth.
"4x gravity! He can still move under 4x gravity? Hurry up and pinch me, see if I'm dreaming!"
His two companions weren't much better than him. They looked like they had seen a ghost, and their expressions were dazed.
The three of them just stood there and watched Lu Sheng in the room continue to move, and the speed of his movements was getting faster and faster, and the frequency was getting higher and higher …
"He's improved today. He lasted more than 20 seconds under 2x gravity …"
The door to the Gravity Training Room adjacent to them opened, and a pale girl covered in sweat walked out.
Her companion, who had been waiting at the door, quickly went up to support her and praised her with a smile. The girl's pale face squeezed out a smile, she was obviously very happy.
The two of them talked for a while, and suddenly noticed something strange next to them.
"Look at these three guys, their expressions are so funny!"
"What are they looking at? Let's go take a look."
The two girls curiously walked over and glanced at the data on the screen outside the door.
"4x gravity?!"
The expressions of the two girls suddenly changed. Instead of walking, they started to jog and quickly moved towards the glass window.
"Is Cao Yong in there? He seems to be the only one in the entire training camp who can enter the 4x gravity room!"
Soon, a figure that was constantly kicking and punching came into view.
The two girls were instantly stunned, as if they had been petrified.
Their expressions gradually became the same as those of the three boys from before.
"Holy … shit …"
The five of them stood in front of the glass for a while, and after who knows how long, someone suddenly came back to his senses and reacted.
"I'll go get someone! This is too fucking exaggerated …" As soon as he turned around, he disappeared without a trace.
