Heretic Trainer: The Gym Is My Cultivation Method

Chapter 654: A Star Realm In Days?

Varkas moved first.

In the next moment, he vanished, leaving only a black afterimage behind.

An instant later, he appeared directly in front of Rovak and swung his arm down like a blade.

Dark cosmic energy gathered around his hand, forming a sharp black claw.

[Black Fang Claw]

SHIIIIING!

The claw tore through open space and slashed toward Rovak’s chest.

But Rovak did not dodge at all.

He only raised one arm.

CLANG!

The black claw struck Rovak’s forearm and released a burst of sparks, but it could not even make Rovak take half a step back.

Varkas was truly surprised when he saw this.

Rovak looked at the claw mark on his arm, then grinned. "Not bad... not bad at all. So let’s see mine."

Rovak grinned and punched forward.

BANG!

Varkas crossed both arms in front of his chest, but Rovak’s fist still smashed him backward through open space.

The livestream comment section instantly erupted.

[He blocked that with his arm?]

[Isn’t Varkas Early Star Realm?]

[Rovak didn’t even use a technique!]

[What kind of body is that?]

Varkas stabilized himself after flying several hundred meters backward. His expression became uglier. "You’re tougher than you look."

Rovak laughed. "And you’re weaker than I thought."

Varkas’s killing intent surged. "You arrogant bastard."

He spread both hands, and black energy gathered around him like a storm.

Several crescent-shaped blades formed in open space, each one giving off a sharp killing aura.

[Black Fang Moon Blades]

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

The black blades shot toward Rovak from every direction. But Rovak only rolled his shoulders and stepped forward.

He walked through open space like it belonged to him, not caring about the blades at all and simply letting them hit his body.

BANG!

CLANG!

BOOM!

Each blade struck his body, but none of them managed to disrupt Rovak’s movement.

He only kept moving forward while his dark-red aura flickered slightly.

Then, in the next moment, he charged straight toward Varkas like a war beast.

Varkas’s face changed. "What?"

In the next instant, Rovak appeared in front of him again and swung his fist.

BOOOOM!

Varkas dodged at the last second, but the shockwave from Rovak’s punch still blasted across open space and smashed into one of the nearby pirate ships.

The ship’s barrier trembled violently.

Inside the silver ship, Alira quickly adjusted the camera angle. "Good. Very good."

The livestream screen immediately replayed Rovak rushing through the black blades in slow motion.

The comment section went crazy again.

[He just tanked them!]

[No skill? No defense art? Just body?]

[God Gym training is terrifying!]

Varkas glanced at the comments on one of his own pirate screens, and his face became even darker.

He also knew the fight was being broadcast after Rovak had announced it, and now he was really pissed. "Don’t get cocky, you bastard."

Varkas roared as his aura rose higher.

A black fang-shaped mark appeared on his forehead, and his speed suddenly increased.

[Black Fang Shadow Step]

His body turned into several black shadows that circled Rovak at high speed, each shadow attacking him from a different angle.

BANG!

BANG!

BANG!

But Rovak only grinned as he stood there and fought back with his fists.

At one point, he even managed to catch one shadow and smash it apart with a punch.

BOOM!

Varkas’s real body suddenly appeared behind Rovak and tried to pierce his back.

But Rovak only grinned.

He twisted his body and slammed his elbow backward, striking Varkas directly in the stomach.

BANG!

Varkas’s body bent slightly as saliva flew from his mouth.

Before he could retreat, Rovak grabbed his head with one hand. "You’re quite fast for a pirate, but..."

His grin became even more savage. "But not fast enough for me. Now let’s finish this."

He swung Varkas’s body around, then threw him in one direction.

BOOOOOOM!

Varkas crashed into a floating asteroid, shattering half of it instantly and scattering the broken pieces into a meteor shower.

For a moment, the entire battlefield went silent.

Rovak floated above the shattered asteroid, still not using any visible technique. "Is that all you’ve got, Varkas?"

His grin widened. "I expected more from you."

Somewhere inside the Astral Cosmic Civilization, Elisa and Slifera stared at the livestream screen with frozen expressions.

For a long moment, neither of them spoke.

On the screen, Rovak had just tanked Varkas’s attacks with nothing but his body, then smashed the pirate captain into an asteroid like he was throwing away trash.

Slifera’s glowing eyes widened. "What the hell is this?"

Elisa narrowed her silver eyes. "His power..."

Slifera immediately pointed at the screen. "Don’t tell me Rovak became Star Realm."

Elisa stayed silent for a second.

Then she slowly nodded. "It seems he did."

Slifera’s face stiffened. "The hell?"

He leaned closer to the screen, staring at Rovak like he wanted to tear the livestream apart and inspect him directly.

"That big idiot was still Peak Awakening Realm during the Newbie Tournament!"

Elisa’s calm expression also became heavier. "That was only a few days ago."

Slifera grabbed his own head. "A few days? A few damn days, and he reached Star Realm? Is God Gym a training organization or a cosmic cheat factory?"

Meanwhile, inside the Drakhor Race’s war hall, the atmosphere also changed.

The massive elder who had been watching casually now sat completely upright.

His dark-red eyes burned fiercely as he stared at Rovak on the screen. "What the..."

The other Drakhor warriors around him also became silent.

One warrior muttered, "This strength... how can Rovak already be this strong?"

Another frowned deeply. "Could he already be Star Realm?"

The elder’s expression turned serious. "But he is still young. For a Drakhor, his bloodline should need much longer to mature naturally."

His fingers tightened around the armrest. "How is this possible?"

At the same time, countless viewers across the Astral Cosmic Civilization were beginning to realize the same thing.

Rovak was not fighting like a Peak Awakening Realm cultivator.

He was fighting like a Star Realm being.

The comment section exploded again.

[Wait... is Rovak already Star Realm?]

[Impossible! He was Peak Awakening Realm in the Newbie Tournament!]

[That tournament was only a few days ago!]

[How did God Gym do this?]

[Can God Gym really promote a customer into Star Realm?]

As the comments flooded the screen, Rovak floated in open space with a savage grin, completely unaware of how much chaos his existence was creating.
