Chapter 162
Wakamiya Minato politely greeted Bella, saying, "Hello."
Bella replied very politely, "Hello, Ms. Wakamiya."
Sitting at the dining table, Luo Mio said to Wakamiya Minato, "You haven't had breakfast yet, have you? Come sit down quickly."
"Yes."
After hearing Luo Mio's words, Wakamiya Minato also sat down at the table and chair.
——
"Have you finished eating?"
Standing up, Luo Mio looked at Wakamiya Minato and said, "Now that we've finished eating, let's begin our special training."
"Yes!"
Wakamiya Minato quickly stood up and said.
Then Wakamiya Minato followed Luo Mio toward the training room in the villa.
Upon arriving at the training room, the clanging sounds of swords clashing could be heard.
Wakamiya Minato looked towards the training room.
A silver-haired figure brandished his katana and launched an attack on the gray-haired, blue-eyed figure.
Between the two, flashes of light from swords and blades appeared, accompanied by countless crisp clanging sounds.
The one with gray hair and blue eyes was Fu Hua.
Wakamiya Minato remembered the silver-haired figure wielding a katana.
Gale Blade Thunder Kato Kirin, the first in the previous sequence of the "Twelve Pages" of the Star Academy.
At the tender age of thirteen, he fought his way up to the top spot in the "Twelve Pages" ranking with just a katana.
Although he was later defeated by Amagiri Ayato Murakumo.
Looking at Kato Kirin's swordsmanship, which resembled "Crane Fold," Wakamiya Minato was stunned.
"So strong..."
Fu Hua "Sword Immortal Ruoshui," is renowned for her strength at the St. Freya Academy. Now that Kato Kirin's sword skills are on par with Fu Hua's to such an extent, how could Wakamiya Minato not be surprised?
After a short while, the two separated again.
"Um?"
Upon seeing Luo Mio and Wakamiya Minato, Fu Hua, who was holding a wooden sword, relaxed her attack and smiled, "You're back."
"Mm." Luo Mio nodded.
Wakamiya Minato bowed and said, "Teacher Fu Hua."
Fu Hua smiled and nodded in acknowledgment.
When Kato Kirin saw Luo Mio, she greeted her very politely, "Senior Luo Mio."
She was also stunned when she saw Wakamiya Minato next to Luo Mio.
"That..."
Luo Mio introduced her as well, "Her name is Wakamiya Minato."
Upon hearing Luo Mio's introduction, Kato Kirin politely replied, "Hello, Wakamiya-senpai."
"Hello," Wakamiya Minato replied quickly.
So cute... so soft...
Looking at Kato Kirin, Wakamiya Minato thought to herself.
Only...
After seeing Kato Kirin's ample breasts that didn't suit her age, she looked down at her own.
Although her own figure wasn't exactly flat either, the difference was immediately apparent when compared to Kato Kirin.
Is she really thirteen years old...?
Wakamiya Minato couldn't help but question herself.
"Teacher, is the room ready?" Luo Mio asked Fu Hua.
Fu Hua nodded.
"Yes, Kong has already prepared it."
"Room?"
Wakamiya Minato overheard Luo Mio and Fu Hua's conversation and asked in confusion.
"Hmm." Luo Mio nodded and said, "It's the place where you do your special training."
"A place for specialized training..."
Then, Luo Mio led Wakamiya Minato to a house next to the training room.
Beside them Kato Kirin, who wanted to observe.
Looking at the closed door of the room, Wakamiya Minato gazed curiously.
"This is where we train..."
Luo Mio looked at Wakamiya Minato and asked, "Are you ready?"
Wakamiya Minato nodded.
Luo Mio then opened the door.
Suddenly—
"Hmm!"
A strong gust of wind, capable of easily knocking over an ordinary person, swept out of the room and struck Wakamiya Minato.
The strong winds even made it impossible for Wakamiya Minato to open her eyes, Wakamiya Minato she had no choice but to shield them with one arm.
He squinted slightly, looking at the view inside the house.
An endless, strong wind swept through the room.
Kato Kirin to the side, also held her scabbard in front of her eyes, looking at the room in astonishment.
The strong wind blew for a short while, followed by extreme cold, which reminded people of the deep, life-threatening areas in the north and south of the world.
Even after just a short while of the cold wind, Wakamiya Minato could already feel the numbness in her arms.
"Is this where I train...?"
Luo Mio nodded and explained, "Yes, the temperature in the room has reached its lowest point, and the cold winds will not stop."
"But what kind of training is this for..."
Wakamiya Minato voiced her doubts.
Kato Kirin to the side, also looked at Luo Mio with curiosity.
Luo Mio looked at Wakamiya Minato with her azure eyes and said, "Wakamiya-kun, you should know that your 'Stellar Power' reserves are extremely limited, right?"
Wakamiya Minato nodded.
Because of her extremely limited "Stellar Power" reserves, her defensive capabilities are quite weak.
The "Star Vein Generation" can increase their attack or defense by controlling "Stellar Power," with a significant effect on defense.
However Wakamiya Minato's reserves of "Stellar Power" make her defense as fragile as paper, easily punctured.
Seeing that Wakamiya Minato nodded, Luo Mio spoke again.
"And that's why I prepared this house for your training."
"Wakamiya-kun, in every battle, you always channel your Stellar Power into attack power and speed, don't you?"
Luo Mio asked.
"Um."
Wakamiya Minato nodded.
Luo Mio shook her head and said, "This is one of the reasons why you were defeated."
"Huh?"
"That's such a waste."
"What do you mean?" Wakamiya Minato asked.
"Smack."
Luo Mio snapped her fingers.
The cold wind blowing out of the house disappeared instantly.
"Come in."
Then, Wakamiya Minato and Kato Kirin followed Luo Mio into the room.
Once inside, Wakamiya Minato was able to see the overall layout of the room.
There was no decoration whatsoever, and apart from the door, there were no windows—it was a completely enclosed room.
In the center of the room stands a sharp rock resembling a mountain peak.
"This is..."
Luo Mio looked at Wakamiya Minato and said, "Let's try touching it."
Upon hearing Luo Mio's words, Wakamiya Minato also stepped forward and gently touched the tip of the sharp stone.
"Hiss!"
The moment she touched him, a sharp, tearing sensation shot through Wakamiya Minato's mind.
So sharp!
Looking down, I saw that a tiny wound had appeared on the finger I had just touched, from which bright red blood was slowly flowing.
Luo Mio said to Wakamiya Minato, "Look carefully, this is your training for the next week."
After saying that, he walked towards the sharp rock.
At the same time, an extremely faint force appeared on Luo Mio's right index finger.
He placed his index finger in front of them and said, "You can think of it as Stellar Power."
The two women looked at Luo Mio's index finger.
That extremely faint power gradually disappeared into Luo Mio's index finger.
The next moment—
"What!"
Wakamiya Minato and Kato Kirin stared in astonishment.
Luo Mio then placed her index finger on the tip of the sharp stone, then lifted her body up, using her index finger as support, and stood upside down on the tip.
The sharp stone, capable of easily cutting through skin, could not pierce Luo Mio's index finger.
Luo Mio lowered her body, showed her undamaged index finger to Wakamiya Minato, and said.
"This is the training I'm giving you."
"Simultaneously mastering the techniques of precise body control and 'Stellar Power'."
"This sharp stone was created by someone I commissioned. Whether you're an ordinary person or a member of the 'Star Vein Generation,' touching its tip with your bare hands will cause an accident."
"And all you need to do is maintain an output of 'Stellar Power' sufficient to touch the inverted tip, while controlling the 'Stellar Power' to allow you to maintain your basic body temperature in the cold storm."
"And you also have to maintain your balance in the storm inside the room."
Luo Mio looked at Wakamiya Minato and said, "You have a strong sense of balance, which you demonstrated in yesterday's competition."
"But this also shows that your control over 'Stellar Power' is quite poor."
After hearing Luo Mio's criticism, Wakamiya Minato also reflected on her past battles.
