Once the two of them returned back to the villa, Arcturus ordered the androids that were maintaining this place on the go to store the corpse of the Twin-Horned Boar as the androids would prepare a plethora of foods from the Twin-Horned Boar that they brought back with them.
After the Twin-Horned Boar was brought back to the manor, both Arcturus and Jenaiel went to take a bath, as they spent a lot of ti within the wilderness of the Ziras IV, though after the bath, they decided that they would be going to train.
It really sounded weird, but after they returned from the wilderness of the Ziras IV, they rested for one hour or so, as Arcturus didn't really want to go train straight away despite Jenaiel's pestering about that.
She wanted to go train as soon as possible because Arcturus agreed to play dummy for her as she would be practicing the Holy Judgnt of God. When Jeniael wanted to practice the Holy Judgnt of God, she needed soone who was very powerful, Psyker or Psionics.
The Holy Judgent of God was Super-High Risk Primal Psyker Ability, exactly like the Dinsion Empyrean, so for Jeniael, it was sothing that was desperately needed because only another Super-High Risk Primal Psyker Ability would be giving her the challenge that she needed.
Within the Imperium or the Imperial Phoenix Military Academy, there were not many people who could be appropriate sparring partners for her. The Holy Judgent of God needed a very powerful challenge that wouldn't be broken through in one hit for further developnt.
Due to that, the only people who could be Jeniael's sparring partners when she was using the Holy Judgent of God were the people with very powerful mutated Psionic Energy or those who had Super-High Risk Primal Psyker Abilities like her own.
Otherwise, the Holy Judgnt of God would just break through everything else, as the power of the Holy Judgnt of God was on this side too overbearing. When Jeniael was using the Holy Judgent of God, she could basically destroy every Psionic Technique or Psyker ability that was under the Super-High Risk Psyker Ability Level.
And even among the Super-High Risk Psyker Abilities, there were not many that could properly withstand against the Holy Judgent of God. Arcturus really marveled at how Jeniael managed to create the perfect Anti-Psion Knight.
Arcturus knew that the Anti-Psion Knights were not really that uncommon in the wider Cosmos, but there were not even that many of them.
Jeniael was born with a specific mutation of the Holy Judgent of God compared to the more usual variant of the Super-High Risk Primal Psyker Ability that was common among the mbers of the House Luxford.
Her variant of the Holy Judgent of God was more inclined to the Psionic Annulnt and Nullification compared to what was more common among the mbers of the House Luxford.
One could say that she could lay down the basis for the entirely new Aristocratib Bloodline Lineage House of the Eternal Empire of the Asurya, as her usage and fundantal aspects of the Holy Judgent of God were vastly different.
Yet, at the sa ti, the price was steep as Jeniael was almost unable to use any Psionics due to the Hoyly Judgent of God as the Super-High Risk Primal Psyker Ability in her body was disturbing her ability to cast Psionic Techniques.
This was to be expected, and it was sothing that couldn't be really changed, as that would require removing the Super-High Risk Primal Psyker Ability as a whole from her body because this was the fundantal part of the Holy Judgent of God.
Fortunely enough, the villa had rather well-equipped dojo.
However, this wasn't anything surprising because this was rather common for the entire Eternal Empire of the Asurya because having so sort of training room, sparring room, or dojo was sothing so common in the households in the Empire, like having a toilet or plumbing.
The dojo of the manor wasn't in the manor as it imdiate part, but it was in the separate building due to various reasons. The main reason was the security reason and another was due to fact, that there were various shield generators across the entire building.
The dojo of the villa was rather a compact yet elegant structure made of dark oak and reinforced brass panels, adorned with intricate copper pipes running along the walls, hissing with occasional steam bursts.
A large, circular stained-glass window at the front depicts a clockwork phoenix as the national symbol of the Eternal Empire of the Asurya. The roof curved slightly upwards, reminiscent of traditional dojo styles but reinforced with riveted tal plating and spinning wind turbines that help generate energy.
A brass-plated entrance gate, decorated with engraved gears and cogs, slides open with a soft chanical hum. A hanging lantern powered by a small steam engine flickers with a warm amber glow, which was more like a decoration if anything, because the steam engines were archaic even in most Pre-Spaceflight Civilizations.
From the inside, the dojo was made from a mix of traditional wooden flooring and chanized training equipnt. The walls were lined with leather-bound scrolls containing pictures of the martial moves, while brass pipes carried steam to various parts of the room.
A central sparring area featured clockwork training dummies, which rotated and struck with chanical precision, their movents adjustable via a large gear-driven control panel on the side.
On the floor were tatami mats and so other clockwork training gadgets that served as the testing thod for martial artists to test their reflexes and strength. In one corner, a steam-powered ditation chamber emits a soft, rhythmic hissing sound, filling the space with a calming mist infused with essential oils.
There was also a gear-driven calligraphy station where one could inscribe their progress on parchnt, using a chanical quill that moves via a small, programmable crankshaft. On the walls, there was a semi-concealed weapons rack, where swords, staffs, and gauntlets were displayed on a rotating gear-driven stand, locked behind reinforced glass.
If the person wanted to train in the weapon arts because even though this dojo was rather advanced, its shielding technology wasn't really at its best and couldn't handle the strongest and most devastating attacks.
According to the description that Arcturus read, the materials would be able to withstand anything at and below the Beta-Grade in terms of Psionic Energy. A rooftop had retractable railings, offering open-air combat practice, while miniature steam vents helped regulate temperature.
This dojo seamlessly combines the elegance of traditional martial arts with the precision and ingenuity of steampunk chanics, like the architecture of the entire manor. Arcturus found it rather weird, yet at the sa ti, it really suited his tastes, and he would ask the Governor-General of the Ziras IV if he could buy the villa.
"So, are we going to start?"
Jenaiel asked, as she was already eager to start the training, as they had sothing around six hours until the dinner would be ready.
Neither of them was using real weapons in the fight because there was no need for that, and instead, they were using the training weapons from the reinforced alloys that should technically be strong enough to withstand the power of the two Super-High Risk Primal Psyker Abilities like Dinsion Empyrean and Hoyl Judgnt of God.
"On your mark."
Arcturus stated, as he started circulating the Nuclear Chaos Formula in his body, that this would be the perfect ti for him to train both the Nuclear Chaos Formula as his primary Psionic Energy Cultivation thod and also the Dinsion Empyrean at the sa ti.
For him, this was, once again, probably as useful as for Jeniael because using the Dinsion Emyprena against sothing like the Holy Judgent of God was far more surreal than using it on nothing or on just so random Psyker Abilities, Psionic Techniques, or physical obstacles.
At the sa ti, he could even further refine his control over the Empyrean Power because he noticed that after the prolonged usage of the Dinsion Empyrena, his control was slipping a bit, which was unacceptable.
This was sothing that he had noticed during the ti when they were fighting against the bugs, and when he was using the Dinsion Empyrean under duress for a prolonged amount of ti and in more dangerous situations, it could be fatal to him if he couldn't properly control the Empyrean Power.
Soon enough, they started their spar, which continued in a rather monotone activity.
Every single ti, Arcturus would use the Dinsion Empyrean in small objects and send them to Jeniael, who would then, in turn, use the Holy Judgent of God to break them apart.
After every ten minutes, Arcturus would be increasing the power of the Empyrean Power... both in the aspect of the density, strength, and amount of the Empyrean Power that he was using to create the objects from the Empyrean Power.
During this ti, Arcturus also had a much better opportunity to practice his skills at shaping the Empyrean Power, which was much easier said than done. Due to the volatility and overly destructive / aggressive nature of the Empyrean Power, it was extrely hard to shape.
The easiest thing would be just to throw it around randomly and hope that he would hit sothing with it.
But that would be extrely ineffective because through that way, he would be wasting an enormous amount of Psionic Energy that was used to feed the Dinsion Empyrean in creating the Empyrean Power.

Arcturus ignored the notification from the system as he proceeded to increase the output of the Dinsion Empyrean because they had already been sparring for half an hour. As the power of the Empyrean Power in his attacks were getting stronger and stronger, Jeniael was forced to use the Holy Judgnt of God more and more.
During the ti that Arcturus practiced with his master and even afterward, he developed several techniques in controlling the Empyrean Power, and he could already control more than ten objects that were conjured from the Empyrean Power like they were extensions of his own body.
If he pushed it, he could control several tens of them, though his control wouldn't be that superb, and it would be slipping from ti to ti.

The growth in proficiency in the Dinsion Empyrean was growing relatively fast because Arcturus was progressing very smoothly in the arts of shaping the Empyrean Power, which was sothing that his master was teaching him personally.
Due to both of them possessing the sa kind of Super-High Risk Primal Psyker Ability, as the Destruction Authority that he mastered possessed was from the sa dough as Dinsion Empynrea, he was rather insistent on teaching Arcturus proper techniques when it ca to shaping the Empyrean Power.
Arcturus was controlling the projectiles made from the Empyrean Power; all of them were shaped like round spheres; as he was using them to attack Jeniael, who in turn was using the Holy Judgnt of God to destroy one sphere after another.
This continued for so ti until Arcturus started increasing the amount of the Empyrean Spheres that he was controlling to his limit. This proved to be rather challenging on all sides because it was ntally, physically, spiritually, and all-otherwise tiring.
Still, the results were paying rather off because once Arcturus overca the initial pain and dizziness that he was feeling from the pressure on his ntal state, he pushed for harder control over the Empyrean Spheres.

[Proficiency with the Super-High Risk Primal Psyker Ability - Dinsion Empyrean has reached Level 9 Apprentice - 0%.]
Arcturus controlled right now more than twenty Spheres of the Empyrean Power as his proficiency with the Dinsion Empyrean reached Level 9 Apprentice, and the proficiency was still growing at a staggering rate until it reached Level 10 not long after.
There was also a good possibility that proficiency in the Dinsion Empyrean would be at the Adept-ranked Proficiency Level. If he reached the Adept Rank in the Mastery of the Dinsion Empyrean, then it would be skill or ability with the highest-ranked attained Mastery.
Aside from the Basic Swordsmanship, which was on the verge of attaining the Grandmaster Realm. In regard to that one, Arcturus really wanted to reach the Grandmaster Realm in the basics because that would put him, leagues, ahead of any other swordsman in the entire Cosmos, as the number of Grandmasters was low.
Arcturus decided to borrow a page from his master, and when he returned to the Imperial Phoenix Military Academy, he would be acting as the assistant teacher in the Swordsmanship Class as well...
Not even the professors attained such high Mastery in the art of basics.
Though for now, he returned his attention to the Dinsion Empyrean Spheres that he imploded to Jen-Jen's face as she used the Holy Judgent of God to create a huge shield to nullify the aftermath of the explosion of the Empyrean Power.
It was a rather interesting cycle because the more the proficiency in the Dinsions Empyrean increased, the more objects from the Empyrean Power he could control, and thus, he continued creating more and more as Jeniael continued destroying them.
However, for better results for both of them, they even clashed in the contact between the Dinsion Empyrean and the Holy Judgent of God. Every single ti, when they clashed, it would create a minor explosion as they were using their Psyker Abilities to overpower the other one.
