Tao Xiang waved her hand generously, "No need to be polite. Remember, what I taught you is just the technique of exerting force. How well you can use Kūshō depends on yourself. Everyone's understanding of Kūshō is different, and the same combat technique can produce different powers in different hands."
Lu Yin nodded to show that he understood.
Tao Xiang licked her lips, "Well, I'm going to enjoy my ice dragon shrimp chips, see you later," and her body disappeared.
Lu Yin didn't even see how she left. This was Tao Xiang's Kūshō. He didn't know where it would rank among the thirteen teams of the Imperial Court.
After practicing Kūshō twice, Lu Yin looked at Bai Xue, "How are you doing in the Sixth Team?"
Bai Xue replied, "It's pretty good, the captain treats me well."
"What about the others?" Lu Yin asked.
Bai Xue thought for a moment, "Zhang Dingtian is having a hard time in the Fifth Team, climbing from the bottom. Shi Wuzhang and the captain of the Eleventh Team stared at each other for a few days without moving. I don't know about Xu San."
Lu Yin looked at Bai Xue's somewhat weary face, "You have great talent, try to choose combat techniques that suit you."
Bai Xue nodded but didn't say anything more.
Adapting to a new environment takes time, even for Bai Xue. In Lu Yin's view, they are gold buried in the soil, and will shine one day. How bright they shine depends on themselves.
Soon, Tao Xiang left with Bai Xue, looking very satisfied and giving Lu Yin a hopeful glance, the meaning of which was obvious.
Lu Yin pursed his lips. The probability of rolling a one on a die is one in six, and the probability of stealing snacks with a one is one in countless, too low. He didn't dare to promise Tao Xiang. Speaking of which, it was time to roll the die.
Spreading his palm, he crushed the star energy crystal, and the die glowed with a faint starlight. Lu Yin took a deep breath. Each time he rolled the die, he was very nervous. Now, three points are unknown, and six points require a terrifying amount of star energy. He least wanted to roll a six, but he was also most excited about it.
Last time, he spent dozens of cubic units of star energy to barely open a spatial rift. Now, he had two hundred cubic units, which should be enough, right!
Thinking about it, Lu Yin pointed, and the die spun quickly, finally stopping on one.
With a snap, a black crystal card fell.
Lu Yin was overjoyed. A crystal card, a combat technique? He quickly picked it up but was disappointed to find it was a Mabis Bank crystal card.
Bank crystal cards usually have genetic authentication, of course, there are some that don't require authentication and can be used directly, but they are rare. This one was clearly authenticated, with the words "Yao Gu" carved in the upper right corner.
Yao Gu? A name or something? Lu Yin was puzzled but didn't pay much attention. A black crystal card from Mabis Bank was quite special. He had never heard of Mabis Bank having black crystal cards; the highest should be gold.
Whether this crystal card was real or fake, it was useless to Lu Yin, as he couldn't withdraw anything from it. He put it away and crushed another star energy crystal, raised his hand, and pointed at the die. Watching the die spin slowly and finally stop on four, the next moment, Lu Yin entered the gray and white time-stopped space.
"Not bad, since that's the case, let's practice Kūshō," Lu Yin muttered to himself, slowly squatting down, with star energy surging in his calves. The next moment, his body shot out rapidly. He wanted to use Kūshō to make up for his lack of speed.
Two days later, Lu Yin was panting heavily, massaging his calf muscles. His current speed had already surpassed the You Shen Bu, but he was still far from Lulu. Just training like this wasn't very effective. If he could have a gravity space, it would be great.
Lu Yin thought, this space can even extend time, so maybe it can also create gravity. Thinking about it, he took out a cubic unit of star energy crystal, crushed it, and focused on gravity. The next moment, the cubic unit of star energy disappeared, and his body felt heavier. This was one times gravity.
Lu Yin was excited. Indeed, it could be done. This space was virtual, and anything could be created as long as he paid star energy. Great! One cubic unit of star energy crystal for one times gravity, forty times gravity would be forty cubic units of star energy crystal, too much. If it weren't for bribery, he wouldn't know when he could gather so much star energy crystal.
Clenching his teeth, Lu Yin crushed forty cubic units of star energy crystal. Instantly, a heavy pressure descended. This was a forty times gravity space, a familiar feeling.
Having already used forty cubic units of star energy to create this space, he couldn't just use it for one day. Lu Yin gritted his teeth and crushed ninety more cubic units of star energy crystal. Instantly, time increased by five days, plus the one day left, making it six days. Six days to train Kūshō, he wondered how much he could improve.
Who could be as extravagant as him, using over a hundred cubic units of star energy crystal to train a combat technique? Lu Yin felt a pang of pain in his heart, but his actions were quick. He ran in the forty times gravity space, recalling the White Night Clan's extreme speed combat technique, and trying to integrate the techniques.
With a thud, his body fell, his calves swelling. He was too hasty, trying to integrate other techniques before fully understanding Kūshō. Fortunately, the injuries weren't serious.
Applying ointment, he soon resumed training.
For others, only a second had passed, but for Lu Yin, he had trained continuously for eight days, all in forty times gravity.
When he stepped out of the gray and white space, Lu Yin fell asleep immediately, he was too exhausted.
Two days later, the members of the Outer Universe Youth Council arrived. Many officials of the Da Yu Empire watched the silver spaceship descending from afar, their expressions solemn.
The Outer Universe Youth Council is a subordinate organization of the Ten Decisions Council. If the Ten Decisions Council gathers the most outstanding young geniuses from the entire universe, then the Outer Universe Youth Council gathers the top young geniuses from the outer universe. Those who can join are either exceptionally talented or extremely powerful, unmatched among their peers.
The strongest of the Da Yu Empire's young generation, Xue Zhi, doesn't even have the qualifications to touch the Outer Universe Youth Council, showing the caliber of the people within. Only someone like Wendi Yushan, a renowned strong figure in the universe, can join.
Many people in the empire were curious about who would come out of the Outer Universe Youth Council.
Soon, the spaceship landed, and Crown Prince Duo Lan Yushan had been waiting for a long time outside the space station.
As the crown prince, personally coming to greet them was already a great honor, and it also showed the Da Yu Empire's high regard for the Outer Universe Youth Council.
Dozens of people walked out of the spaceship, led by a three-meter-tall, mature-looking man, Bazhe.
Beside Bazhe was a pale-faced man named Gui Huo, and on the other side were several peak-level strong figures, all very young.
Duo Lan Yushan looked at the approaching Bazhe with a serious expression, feeling a sense of awe. Anyone who can join the Youth Council is a cultivator under forty years old. In the universe, the average human lifespan is 150 years, and forty is a dividing line. Those under forty are considered young, while those over forty are not. Some special races are exceptions.
The man in front of him, though mature, must be under forty to join the council, yet he already had the strength to walk through the stars. This was the Outer Universe Youth Council, this was the level of genius from the outer universe.
When he reached the Exploration Realm, he was already over forty.
"I am Bazhe, a member of the Outer Universe Youth Council," the large man Bazhe said solemnly as he approached Duo Lan Yushan.
Duo Lan Yushan smiled, "Welcome to the Da Yu Empire, Councilor Bazhe. His Majesty is waiting for you in the imperial hall."
Bazhe nodded, "Please."
Duo Lan Yushan made a gesture, "Please."
Soon, they arrived at the imperial hall.
Today was a special day, and all the officials were present, including Lu Yin and some other royal family members. Wendi Yushan placed great importance on the members of the Outer Universe Youth Council, but the captains of the Imperial Court's Thirteen Teams were not invited.
Bazhe, Gui Huo, and two peak-level men entered the imperial hall without bowing to Wendi Yushan, only giving a polite greeting.
No one cared, as the visitors were not from the Da Yu Empire, not even from the Canglan Domain, and their status was very high. Their courtesy was already a sign of respect for Wendi Yushan.
Bazhe was ordered to supervise the Da Yu Empire's trials and education for the young generation, so he naturally wanted to meet the empire's most famous Yu Tang elites.
Soon, everyone moved to the training ground, where hundreds of Yu Tang members were already waiting, but the five hall masters were absent.
Wendi Yushan looked tired and left to rest, leaving Crown Prince Duo Lan Yushan to entertain Bazhe and the others.
Without Wendi Yushan's presence, many people relaxed.
"Crown Prince, I have heard the legends of the Canglan Domain's two immortals since I was young. It is said that His Majesty Wendi Yushan once ranked in the top twenty of the Inner
