"Boom!"
In the vast white space, two figures were engaged in fierce combat. To be precise, only one side was fighting intensely. Anon Turing's green hair flew wildly, and his entire body was covered in bright green runes. His fighting spirit was incredibly high, and he recklessly expended energy as if it were free.
The unique green energy he possessed created a myriad of strange properties in the space, including gravity, radiation, light, heat, cold, and vibration. Various attack methods were emerging one after another, and Lu Sheng even faintly saw traces of his Stellar Dao in a few of the moves.
"Impressive," Sheng—watching from the sidelines—murmured in admiration.
It must be said that Anon Turing's talent was extremely terrifying; with his Immortal-levelExtraordinary Physique, he once the most outstanding genius in the Hundred Great.
It was no empty boast. The green energy he wielded was likely a powerful Law capable of simulation and replication. This reminded Lu Sheng of a superhero from a comic book in his past life. He used green energy and relied on imagination to enhance his combat power. Anon Turing was somewhat similar to him.
However, even though Anon Turing had pushed his combat skills to the limit, he was still no match for Haiji Dao. The latter didn't even unleash much of its power, merely casually swinging his bone longsword, unleashing wave after wave of blade light filled with a sense of decay and desolation. It easily blocked Anon's flashy attacks.
"That's enough," Haiji Dao said softly. Then, a grayish-white blade of light sliced through the green flames, abruptly hovering above Anon's head.
He froze on the spot. Then, the green runes on his body faded rapidly, one by one. He looked somewhat dejected, and withdrew from the battle with a bitter smile.
"The gap is too big,"
Anon Turing said somewhat unwillingly, "I couldn't even get close to you."
"It will be different in the future," Haiji Dao replied calmly, and he added, "Actually, you could try discarding some useless moves and delving deeper into the more impressive, powerful moves. Your combat power should see a more significant improvement."
"I do have that idea." Anon Turing nodded thoughtfully, it was clear that this battle had been very rewarding for him.
"Can you tell what kind of Law he has mastered?"
Lu Sheng couldn't help but ask. Anon Turing beside him also looked up curiously. Haiji Dao had said before that immortal-level extraordinary life forms are born with at least one Law Power. The power Anon possessed was clearly a manifestation of the Law Power within him. He himself was also curious about what kind of Law he possessed.
Faced with this question, Haiji Dao pondered for a moment and replied, "Many Law Powers have unique characteristics that cannot be described in detail. I can roughly sense what Anon's Law is like, but I'm sorry, I can't summarize it accurately."
"Is it powerful?" Anon Turing hurriedly asked.
Haiji Dao glanced at him and said indifferently, "Laws are the cornerstone of the universe's operation; no Law is weak. The power of a Law depends on the extent to which you master and develop it, and has nothing to do with the Law itself."
However, he inwardly scoffed at his own words. Laws certainly have varying degrees of strength, and the differences are vast. For example, the Law of Thunder that Lu Sheng possessed was an extremely powerful one, inherently possessing an overwhelming advantage over Anon Turing's green Law Power. But he couldn't say this to Anon Turing, otherwise it would severely damage his martial arts spirit. Moreover, his words weren't entirely wrong; the same Law Power could indeed have vastly different effects depending on who wielded it. It mainly depends on the individual; the Law itself is secondary.
"Then how does it compare to the Law you, Lord Haiji Dao, possess? Which is stronger?" Anon Turing pressed. Haiji Dao, however, ignored him completely.
His gaze fell on Lu Sheng, and he looked at him, saying, "Shall we begin?"
"Sure."
Lu Sheng nodded, and then he and Haiji Dao walked towards the center of the space.
The entire self-healing alloy room was constructed from a super alloy. Its sturdiness was sufficient to withstand the energy attacks of a level 13 martial arts expert, and it possessed memory capabilities. Even if destroyed, it could self-repair. This super alloy was extremely expensive, generally used only on strategic-class spaceships, yet now it was being used as the main material for the vast sparring room, and it was highly unlikely to be recycled. This clearly demonstrated the grand scale of Chief Star Elder Mokodo's investment.
Lu Sheng and Haiji Dao stood facing each other. Sheng's mind raced. He was mainly considering what methods to use to fight. This wasn't a life-or-death duel; mental attacks were definitely out of the question. The Seven Emotions Blade, now fused with the power of two emotional laws, could easily reap the lives of a level 13 general-level Alien Beast. If it were used, Haiji Dao would likely die.
The Final Ice Blazing Sun was also out of the question. This move was even more terrifying than the Seven Emotions Blade. Its destructive power was enough to destroy a star; once unleashed, the entire spaceship would cease to exist.
"Using these two trump cards should be enough, right?" Lu Sheng thought to himself, and after making his decision, he looked up at Haiji Dao and said, "I'm ready."
Haiji Dao nodded, about to say something.
Suddenly, Lu Sheng added, "Lord Haiji Dao, please be careful in the upcoming battle. If you are outmatched, you may call a halt immediately."
"Ha---"
Haiji Dao was stunned, then almost burst out laughing. As the instructor of this special training, Lu Sheng, a student himself, was actually telling him to be careful—this was outrageous!
'Wait!'
Haiji Dao suddenly snapped to attention, as if he had just remembered something. He had almost forgotten. Lu Sheng was someone who had once killed two level 13 general-level Beasts. He was different from Anon Turing. He wasn't just a super genius with exceptional talent. He was also a true powerhouse with level 13 combat strength!
In an instant, Haiji Dao's entire demeanor changed drastically. The leisurely ease he had displayed while training Anon Turing vanished, replaced by unprecedented caution and a rapidly gathering fighting spirit.
"Very good."
Lu Sheng saw that Haiji Dao was now wielded with both hands, and that a light gathered in his eyes.
A slightly satisfied smile appeared on Sheng's face. He nodded and said, "That's more like it."
With that, he took a light step forward. As he took this step, his eyes turned gray. his black hair transformed into dazzling silver. Platinum flames roared around him, and the Sun God runes quietly appeared.
With this step... Lu Sheng seemed to have completed a perfect transformation from mortal to Starry Sky God. The entire sparring room brightened up, as if countless rising suns had suddenly appeared...

But at this moment, his brows were furrowed, and he paced back and forth in the room, appearing somewhat anxious and restless.
