Chapter 72 – Eight Times the Gravity, Record Refreshed, Shocking!
“Lu Sheng can’t hold on any longer. He’s about to turn off the gravity …”
“After all, it’s 5x gravity. Being able to hold on for so long is already amazing. If it were me, I wouldn’t be able to hold on for even a second!”
Outside the training room, everyone saw Lu Sheng holding the remote control through the window.
Almost everyone subconsciously thought that Lu Sheng had reached his limit and was about to stop cultivating.
“Is anyone keeping time? How long has Lu Sheng stayed in the training room? Did he break the record?”
Someone suddenly yelled.
Everyone immediately reacted.
Yes, a 5x gravity training. This was enough to break the record for the highest gravity training in the training camp.
However, whether he had broken the record, he would only know after seeing it.
“Is there anyone keeping time?” Some people followed suit and shouted.
“Keep time my ass. Isn’t there a time record on the display? Just one look and you’ll know.” Someone replied speechlessly.
“Yeah, why didn’t I think of that?”
Immediately, a group of people gathered in front of the display screen at the door.
Cao Yong was also mixed in with the crowd. His expression was solemn, but his eyes were very anxious. Clearly, he was also very curious about this matter.
A group of people squeezed in front of the small display screen, each of them desperately trying to move forward. The faces of the few people at the front were almost stuck to the display screen.
“How much time does it show?” the man behind him kept urging.
How much time?
“Tell me if once you’ve seen it!”
“Motherfucker, I can’t see because of you guys!” A boy with a thick neck roared.
Only then did the people behind slowly retreat a little.
The display screen was finally visible.
The people at the front of the line tried their best to stare at the numbers on the display screen, for fear of missing a decimal point.
“Under 5x gravity, the activation time is 7 minutes …”
The crowd burst into an uproar when they heard the words “7 minutes”.
“Holy shit, five times the gravity for more than seven minutes! Isn’t this already a record?!”
“Lu Sheng, this is insane! What is this called? Doesn’t the saying go, ‘Silent but astounding, one roar amazes all!'”
“Do you think he was in seclusion for the past month, practising some kind of peerless martial art?”
“With this result, could Lu Sheng already be a Level 3 Martial Artist?”
“Tsk tsk …”
Hearing the discussions about him, Cao Yong’s heart was filled with mixed feelings. He suddenly felt that all his efforts over the past month had been in vain.
The online guidance of a mysterious teacher, the time he spent in the Gravity Training Room ten times longer than others … It was all a joke.
Three minutes under 4x gravity and seven minutes under 5x gravity were two completely different concepts, okay?
The difference between them …
Cao Yong’s pride was shattered at this moment. Standing in the crowd, he felt like a clown.
“Seven minutes and …? You haven’t completed your words.”
“Yeah, seven minutes and how many seconds? Hurry up and say it!”
There was another commotion in the crowd.
But at this time, the guy at the front of the line didn’t say anything.
His head was stuck straight in front of the display screen. His expression was blank, and he couldn’t utter a word.
“Fuck, you’re occupying the stall but aren’t taking a dump!” A hot-tempered fatty couldn’t stand it any longer and rushed forward to pull them apart.
“It’s just a few numbers. Is it that difficult?” As he spoke, he looked up at the display screen.
With this look, his entire body instantly froze on the spot, not uttering a single word.
After being pulled apart by the fatty, the people blocking the front dispersed quite a bit. The crowd behind also took the opportunity to see the full picture of the display screen.
In an instant, everyone fell silent.
Their eyes were fixed on the small display screen. Their expressions were as if they had seen a ghost.
“Fuck …” Someone choked out a word. He opened and closed his mouth, but no words came out.
On the small display screen, a line of clear words was displayed.
6x gravity activated.
Six times the gravity!
Lu Sheng did not leave the Gravity Training Room yet.
He was holding the remote control, not to pause, but to … continue to increase the gravitational force!
Cao Yong stood in the crowd and stared at the big six on the display screen. His expression was a little dazed.
At this moment, under everyone’s watchful eyes.
The numbers on the display screen changed again.
The original number of six quietly changed to seven.
“Seven times the gravity has been activated!”
In an instant … The crowd completely exploded!
…
“Today, two more students couldn’t hold on and applied to leave the camp …” Dong Qingxue casually threw the two documents aside and said with a cold expression.
Qin Shaojun held his coffee and comforted her with a casual expression, “They’re all spoiled by their families. They’re geniuses who are the centre of attention in their cities. It’s normal for them to not be able to withstand the pressure here. Don’t worry, don’t worry …”
“They can’t even withstand this little pressure? They can’t even withstand this little difficulty? Then, when they go to the battlefield and fight against beasts with real swords and spears, can they withstand it?”
Dong Qingxue sneered and said, “Geniuses in the safe zone will never be considered geniuses. Only geniuses who have experienced the baptism of the battlefield can be considered true geniuses!”
“You’re too serious.”
Qin Shaojun shook his head and said, “Actually, the quality of this batch of students is not bad. I estimate that at least 80% of them can last until the day the camp closes.”
“I hope so.”
Dong Qingxue ended the topic and was about to continue reading the documents in her hand when suddenly, the computer in front of her rang with a crisp notification.
Ding dong!
A hint of surprise appeared on Dong Qingxue’s face. She opened the message, and the first words that greeted her eyes made her happy.
“Someone has broken the record of the Gravity Training Room!” Dong Qing Xue said.
Qin Shaojun, who had been sitting calmly at the side, immediately became interested.
“So fast? Who is it? Cao Yong? This kid is not bad. Qi Meng taught him well. I should find time to treat him to a meal … ”
Dong Qingxue’s expression became more and more strange as she read the message.
Suddenly, she raised her head and looked at Qin Shaojun in a daze. She said, “It’s not Cao Yong. It’s someone you’d never expect.”
“Someone I’d never expect?”
Qin Shaojun was a little puzzled. “Who is it?”
Dong Qingxue looked into Qin Shaojun’s eyes and said word by word, “It’s Lu Sheng!”
“Pfft!”
Qin Shaojun spat out the coffee in his mouth and spilled it all over the floor.
“Who? Lu Sheng? That kid came out of seclusion? He’s been in seclusion for more than a month, and he still managed to break the record?!”
Qin Shaojun asked a series of questions, his face full of disbelief.
Dong Qingxue nodded and thought for a while. “It seems that he didn’t completely waste the past month. Coupled with his original strength, it’s still possible for him to achieve this result.”
Qin Shaojun held his cup and wiped his mouth as he said in a daze, “That’s right. But this kid still gave us a big surprise. It seems that the Whetstone Project can continue …”
Dong Qingxue smiled slightly and said confidently, “Since Lu Sheng is back, that’s great. I was just worried that Xia Lin’s strength was improving too quickly and that no one in the training camp could give her any pressure. Lu Sheng’s current strength is just right. He can be Xia Lin’s whetstone …”
Dong Qingxue paused for a moment and said in a serious tone, “A whetstone for one person.”
“Look at you.” Qin Shaojun shook his head and walked to Dong Qingxue’s side.
“Let me see Lu Sheng’s record-breaking result. I remember that the highest record in the Gravity Training Room is 5x gravity. How many minutes is it …”
As Qin Shaojun spoke, he walked to Dong Qingxue’s side. Dong Qing Xue let him have the computer.
She was about to show Qin Shaojun the message records.
Suddenly.
Ding dong!
There was a new message.
“Another record-breaking news in the Gravity Training Room?!” Qin Shaojun’s face revealed a look of surprise as he opened the message.
“Damn, 6x the gravity! It’s still Lu Sheng!”
Dong Qingxue was also a little surprised.
“It seems that Lu Sheng’s improvement in the past month is beyond our imagination. This kid …”
Before Dong Qingxue could finish her sentence …
Ding dong!
The third message arrived.
It was still the Gravity Training Room. It was still the notification of a new record.
It was still … It was Lu Sheng.
“Seven … Seven times the gravity!”
Qin Shaojun was so shocked that he stuttered. He turned to look at Dong Qingxue. “How much strength did this kid hide? Is he a freaking monster?!”
Dong Qingxue was also shocked. She did not know how to answer Qin Shaojun.
“I have to go to the Gravity Training Room to have a look!” Qin Shaojun could not hold back and said quickly.
Dong Qingxue’s eyes flickered, and she stood up as well.
“I’ll go with you.”
“Okay, let’s go meet that kid together!” The two of them were ready to leave as they spoke.
At this moment …
Ding dong!
A crisp and pleasant sound rang in the room.
This sound seemed to have some kind of special magic, causing Qin Shaojun and Dong Qingxue to look at the computer screen.
Qin Shaojun did not know what to feel. He slowly moved the mouse and clicked on the message.
When he and Dong Qingxue saw the words 8x gravity and Lu Sheng’s name in the message, both of their expressions froze.
The room was dead silent.
Then, Qin Shaojun let out a long sigh.
“This kid Lu Sheng … What level is he at now?”
No one answered him.
Dong Qingxue could not either.
