(ps: The limit for Qi-Blood in a Martial Artist is 53 points, there was a typo before, please take this as the correct value.)
"Gravity Room?"
Lu Chenzhou surveyed the dod structure with his eyes.
The overall shape resembled an upside-down blue and white porcelain bowl.
Principal Wang said,
"Correct, the Gravity Room. Underneath it, there is a ’Variable Gravity Cabinet’ installed, which can refine the body by adjusting the gravity within the area.
This is the latest high-end technological product researched by Da Xia. It has been tested in the army for the whole of last year and is now being popularized in top Martial Arts Universities.
Production is limited; our branch wasn’t supposed to get one from the first batch, but I assured the higher-ups that if our branch could install one, we would produce a Martial Arts Grandmaster with both internal and external mastery within twenty years, no less capable than Lufang."
At this point, Principal Wang looked at Lu Chenzhou.
"The Gravity Room can assist in polishing techniques. There’s also a special area for Hard Qigong cultivators to practice striking. The effect is as good as being struck by a Cross Training expert personally, and you can even adjust the intensity. Do you have the confidence to beco a Martial Arts Grandmaster with both internal and external mastery within twenty years?"
Lu Chenzhou was pleasantly surprised.
"Master, no problem!"
Principal Wang said,
"Don’t overthink it. Even though I’ve made a bet with the higher-ups, even if I lose, there would be no substantial loss for , just an embarrassnt to my reputation."
Lu Chenzhou breathed a sigh of relief.
"That’s good... I won’t let Master lose face."
For a person like Master, reputation is indeed very important.
Principal Wang said,
"The energy consumption of the Gravity Room is quite terrifying; therefore, its activation is not free. An ordinary polishing chamber costs 1 Great rit per hour, and the Cross Training Chamber costs 2 Great rit. The latter is the high-end version; everything available in an ordinary room is also in the Cross Training Room."
Lu Chenzhou understood.
"Okay, thank you, Master!"
No matter what, the problem with Cross Training was resolved.
He wouldn’t need to bother Chen Jiu anymore.
Principal Wang said,
"The Gravity Room will officially open to all teachers and students tomorrow. You can experience it for free today to see how long you can last. The longer you can resist, the better it is for your cultivation. Of course, not for too long, otherwise your internal organs could shatter, resulting in death."
With that said, Principal Wang left.
Lu Chenzhou approached the building, swiped his campus card, and a high-tech door opened, revealing ten round honeycomb-like chambers inside. Nine were ordinary white chambers, and one was a gold-colored Cross Training Chamber.
A gentle female voice announced:
[Welco to the Gravity Room. Please be aware of the following precautions:
1. Non-Hard Qigong practitioners, use the gold chamber with caution. 2. Those below Martial Artist level should not use the Gravity Room. 3. This product is currently ineffective for Martial Arts Grandmasters and above; please look forward to future updates. 4. Please adjust the gravity levels according to your strength. It is not recomnded for Breakthrough First level practitioners to exceed 20 tis.]
Lu Chenzhou looked intrigued.
"So high-end."
He approached the entrance to the gold chamber.
[Cross Training Chamber costs 2 Great rit per hour (ten tis gravity). Beyond ten tis, the price increases correspondingly, up to a maximum of 40 Great rit per hour (200 tis gravity).]
"200 tis gravity?"
Lu Chenzhou’s eyes narrowed as he said,
"Probably only a Martial Arts Master can cultivate under a hundred tis gravity. With my current weight of 200 pounds, under two hundred tis gravity, it would be 40,000 pounds...
40,000 pounds seem manageable; with my current burst of Innate Strength, I can easily move a ten-thousand-pound boulder. But that doesn’t an the body of a Martial Artist, especially the internal organs, can withstand the terrifying pressure of 200 tis gravity.
Even a Grandmaster has fragile organs. Breaking the shackles ans constantly eliminating weaknesses. Only an Absolute Peak Strong can achieve the ultimate physical strength."
To so extent, the process of a Martial Arts strongman breaking through shackles is a fight against gravity, making the body’s strength far exceed the gravitational force of the current planet.
"I’ll give it a try first, hoping for a bit of good effect."
If Chen Jiu was around, Lu Chenzhou would definitely be practicing striking with him.
The Gravity Room is too expensive. Although it’s only one hour of use per day, if one keeps it up for a year, it will consu a significant amount of Great rit, second only to the Enlightennt Elixir. He is not undertaking missions now, relying solely on the cash he saved up in the past to exchange for Great rit for cultivation.
The chamber was about the size of a bedroom. It was possible to practice punches and swordplay, but for practicing spear skills or long whips and other long weapons, there wasn’t enough room to maneuver.
The gentle voice spoke again:
[Please select the gravity level. For first-ti use, it is recomnded to start with twice the normal gravity and gradually increase the level as your body adapts.]
"Two tis gravity."
The Gravity Room began to hum and vibrate.
Lu Chenzhou’s Training Clothes clung to his body.
But he himself, felt nothing.
"The body of a Martial Artist should have no problems under ten tis gravity."
He gradually increased the setting.
He started to feel the effect at five tis gravity.
Soon, he reached ten tis gravity.
Lu Chenzhou breathed heavily, feeling tightness in his chest as his blood felt like lead rcury continuously falling. His head felt slightly dizzy with an invisible sense of plumting and tearing.
"This isn’t my limit..."
He continued to adjust the setting, reaching twenty tis unwittingly—the recomnded limit for Martial Artists. Lu Chenzhou felt as heavy as a lead figure. His entire body—muscles, organs, blood, and bones—were under severe pressure.
At twenty tis gravity, it cost 4 Great rit per hour.
Lu Chenzhou said,
"This is about the limit; any further increases the risk of internal injuries."
He was here for cultivation, not to challenge his limits.
Under twenty tis gravity, Lu Chenzhou had no issues moving normally. However, when he tried to execute the "Xuan Yan Feitian Fist," he realized the gap in martial skills. When his "Stepping on Water Without Trace" movent technique landed on the floor, there were loud explosions, absent of the Light Spirit feeling of the Swallow Form.
