Heretic Trainer: The Gym Is My Cultivation Method

Chapter 657: Only Five Slots Remain

The Black Fang Pirates’ fleet had already collapsed.

Broken ships drifted through open space, flames burned silently among shattered metal, and countless pieces of debris floated around the battlefield like the remains of a ruined war zone.

At the center of it all, Rovak floated with his monstrous body covered in bloodlight.

The moment he roared, the blood scattered across the battlefield swarmed into him again, healing his wounds and making him even stronger than before.

Then, finally, Rovak locked his eyes onto one person.

The pirate captain of this entire fleet.

Varkas.

He was still alive, but his face had already lost most of its arrogance thanks to his current situation.

His body was seriously injured, yet there was almost no blood left flowing from his wounds after most of it had been absorbed by Rovak.

And even more painful than his injuries was the fact that his entire pirate fleet had been destroyed by Rovak alone.

Varkas looked at Rovak with fear in his eyes. "You... just what the hell are you? How can a Star Realm being be so strong? You monster... you’re a damn monster."

Rovak grinned when he heard that.

Then he immediately roared again, trying to drag Varkas back into a fighting mood.

ROOOOOOOAAAAAR!

Hearing the roar, Varkas’s face twisted as his black aura exploded again desperately. "Don’t look down on me, you bastard!"

Varkas roared and charged forward, his body turning into a black shadow.

Dark cosmic energy gathered around both of his hands, forming two massive fang-shaped claws.

[Black Fang Twin Claws]

SHIIIIIIING!

The claws tore through open space and slashed toward Rovak’s throat.

But Rovak only laughed. "Hahahaha!"

He stepped forward and let Varkas hit his throat.

The attack managed to seriously injure Rovak, tearing deep into his flesh, but Rovak only looked down at him with a monstrous grin. "Not bad."

His bloody teeth flashed. "But still too weak."

Rovak’s eyes burned with savage excitement. "Let me show you a real one."

He grabbed both of Varkas’s wrists and pulled them apart directly, twisting them in an unnatural direction.

CRACK!

Varkas screamed in pain. "AAAAARGH!"

The pain was so intense that it woke Varkas up from the roar’s influence for a moment, and he immediately wanted to run.

But before he could do anything, Rovak slammed his knee into his stomach.

BANG!

Varkas bent forward, blood spraying from his mouth.

Rovak grabbed him by the head and dragged him through open space like a broken weapon before raising him up high.

Inside the silver ship, Alira quickly zoomed in and grinned while looking at the video. "What a good angle."

Rovak looked straight at the camera for a second.

Then his grin widened. "Hahaha... watch closely."

Right in front of the livestream camera, Rovak’s hand tightened around Varkas’s head.

Varkas’s eyes widened in pure terror.

"No... wait!"

CRUSH!

Rovak crushed his head directly in front of the camera. Then he released him, letting the broken body fall and float aimlessly through space.

For a moment, the entire battlefield became silent. Then the comment section in the livestream went completely insane.

[He crushed Varkas!]

[That was an Early Star Realm pirate captain!]

[God Gym is too terrifying!]

[Only a few days of training and Rovak became this strong?!]

Rovak’s monstrous form slowly turned toward the camera.

Then he grinned widely. "Hahaha! That’s all for the result of God Gym’s hidden ultimate training."

He raised one bloody fist and pointed it toward the livestream. "God Gym will be waiting for your arrival."

Then his grin became even more shameless. "Hehehe... only five slots left, so you better be fast."

Inside the silver ship, Alira nearly coughed. "Five slots? Since when? I’ve never heard about this."

Meanwhile, across the Astral Cosmic Civilization, countless viewers froze.

Then, once again, the comment section exploded.

[Only five slots?!]

[Where do I register?!]

[I need God Gym’s location now!]

[Terminal One! Open registration!]

[I don’t care about the price anymore!]

And just like that, God Gym’s name spread even further across the Astral Cosmic Civilization.

---

At God Gym’s temporary base, Garion was relaxing with a proud smile on his face.

The livestream had already ended, but the effect had not.

Across the Astral Cosmic Civilization, God Gym’s name was exploding everywhere.

Then suddenly, a communication device on a nearby table lit up.

BZZZT!

A projection appeared almost instantly.

It was Paren.

Fortunately, before Alira left, she had placed a direct communication device inside God Gym’s base so Paren could contact Garion more easily.

And now, Paren’s face looked terrible.

Garion blinked. "Oh, Paren. What’s up?"

Paren stared at him. "Garion."

Garion smiled. "Yeah?"

"What the hell was the meaning of that?"

Garion tilted his head. "Meaning of what?"

Paren’s eye twitched. "Five slots."

Garion’s grin slowly widened.

Paren pointed at him through the projection. "Do you know how many people are calling me right now? Factions, clans, merchants, warriors, old monsters, even people from the Drakhor Race! All of them are asking about those five slots!"

Garion nodded proudly. "Good. That means the advertisement worked."

Paren pressed his fingers against his forehead. "That is not the point."

Garion laughed. "Relax. Let me explain."

Paren stared at him coldly. "Please do."

Garion crossed his arms. "Those five slots are for God Gym’s hidden ultimate training."

Paren’s expression sharpened. "The training Rovak used?"

Garion nodded. "Exactly. And let me tell you now, it’s expensive."

Paren’s eyes narrowed. "How expensive?"

Garion smiled. "Very."

Paren did not like that smile.

Garion continued, "Also, not everyone can join. The prerequisite is Peak Awakening Realm."

Paren frowned slightly. "Only Peak Awakening?"

Garion raised one finger. "Not normal Peak Awakening. I mean the peak of the peak. Their body, soul, mana, foundation, willpower, and combat path all need to be strong enough."

His expression became slightly more serious. "And they need strong will. Because the hidden ultimate training can result in death."

Paren froze.

Even Rachel, who was nearby, glanced at Garion silently.

Paren slowly said, "Death?"

Garion nodded calmly. "Yeah. But the results speak for themselves."

Paren stared at him like he wanted to curse. "What kind of training is that?"

Garion smiled without answering.

Then he added, "But ordinary God Gym training has no slot limit. Anyone can apply for that. The five slots are only for the hidden ultimate course."

Paren’s expression changed slightly.

That actually made things easier to manage.

Then Garion suddenly grinned again. "Also, maybe you can auction three of those slots."

Paren paused. "Auction?"

Garion nodded. "Yeah. I’ll give you all three to handle."

Paren’s eyes narrowed again.

Garion smiled shamelessly. "You’re good at paperwork and connections, right?"

Paren stared at him for a long moment.

Then he sighed deeply. "Garion... every time you give me an opportunity, it feels like you’re also throwing a disaster at my face."

Garion laughed. "That’s called business."
