Collapse Iron: My Past Life Revealed, I Was Everyone's White Moonlight

Walter paused for a moment after hearing this, then slowly spoke, "The Sky Curtain, the Star God... Lu Li harbors many secrets."

Himeko sighed.

"Yes, but the key issue is that we don't even know what those things are, so we can't prepare for them."

"He's like a giant magnet now, attracting more and more things we can't control."

"First it was the Star Core Hunters, then the Interstellar Peace Corporation, and then the Star God..."

"The train will probably never be able to remain calm again."

"Is it peaceful...?" Walter stood up and walked to the window.

"Peace has always been a luxury."

Walter looked out the window at the deep universe and spoke slowly.

"From the moment we embarked on this pioneering journey, we were destined to deal with all sorts of troubles."

"However, this trouble may be bigger than any before."

"Then what should we do?" Himeko asked. "Should we continue to wait and see?"

"No."

Walter turned around. "This time we have to take the initiative."

"Starting tomorrow, I will personally guide Lu Li's training."

"In order to deal with the possible crisis that may come, he must master his true power in the shortest possible time."

"And you should also talk to Danheng."

"Lu Li's combat ability is strong, but too primitive. He needs someone to help him hone it."

"The same goes for Xing; she also needs to train to master the power of the star core within her body as much as possible."

"Danheng is the best person to do this."

"Besides that..." Walter looked at Himeko, "we also need to keep a close eye on the movements of the Interstellar Peace Corporation."

"Topa and Sandgold, those two guys are no pushovers."

Himeko nodded, her expression serious.

"I see."

Walter looked out at the universe.

"They just need to follow their own pace and rhythm to complete their pioneering work step by step."

"The rest... is a matter for us adults."

……

Early the next morning.

Lu Li was mercilessly dragged out of his dream by Pam's wake-up call.

He arrived at the training room with dark circles under his eyes and sleepy, only to find Walter and Danheng already waiting there.

"Good morning, Lu Li," Walter greeted, adjusting his glasses.

Dan Heng nodded coolly, which was his way of saying hello.

"Good morning... Good morning..." Lu Li said weakly with a yawn.

He was incredibly energetic after drinking that coffee last night, tossing and turning until late into the night before finally drifting off to sleep.

Right now, all he wants is to find a place to catch up on some sleep.

"Looks like you didn't sleep well last night." Walter noticed his fatigue at a glance. "But it's okay, today's training will help you perk up."

Lu Li: "..."

I forgot about this part.

With the development of Yalilo-VI over, his training naturally begins.

Lu Li is starting to regret it.

I should have never agreed to Himeko's request.

"Alright, enough chit-chat." Walter clapped his hands.

"Lu Li, although you have awakened a powerful force, your control over that force is still very rough. You often fight based on your body's instincts."

"This might be enough when facing ordinary enemies, but it will become your weakness when you encounter a truly strong opponent."

"So, just like Himeko said before, starting today, Danheng and I will take turns giving you special training."

"This morning I will teach you how to accurately control and utilize the energy within your body, as well as the in-depth use of the power of words."

"In the afternoon, Danheng will be in charge of honing your combat skills and reaction abilities."

"Our goal is to transform you from a 'savage' who only throws punches instinctively into a 'warrior' who truly knows how to fight within a month."

Listening to Walter's devilish training plan, Lu Li felt a wave of dizziness wash over him.

A month?

He felt he might not even last another day.

"Um... Mr. Walter, could we... make a deal?" Lu Li asked weakly, clinging to his last shred of hope.

"No," Walter said with a smile, refusing his request.

Lu Li: "..."

Okay, it seems there's no room for negotiation.

In the time that followed, Lu Li experienced firsthand what it meant to be in "hell on earth".

In the morning, it was Walter's theory and practice class.

The training involved standing on a rapidly spinning disc, dodging metal balls manipulated by Walter using gravity, while simultaneously using spells to hit a designated bullseye.

At first, Lu Li thought it was quite simple.

But he soon realized he was wrong.

The speed and trajectory of those metal balls were completely unpredictable, and they almost hit his head several times.

The consumption of spiritual techniques was also much greater than he had imagined.

After using it multiple times in a row, he felt as if his mental energy had been completely drained, and he felt dizzy and lightheaded.

After a morning of work, Lu Li felt completely drained and could barely stand.

But instead of mourning Lu Li who was almost completely drained, they were faced with the afternoon's Danheng sparring session.

Dan Heng truly lived up to his reputation as the train's fighter; his moves were incredibly "steady, accurate, and ruthless."

Although he didn't use the power of destiny, he still managed to torture Lu Li to the point of near death with his unpredictable marksmanship alone.

Several times, Lu Li felt as if the tip of a spear was about to pierce his throat.

If it weren't for his quick reflexes, he probably would have been sent back to the respawn point by Dan Heng long ago.

After a day of training, Lu Li felt like there wasn't a single good muscle left on his body.

He lay sprawled on the floor of the training room, not wanting to move a single finger.

"How are you feeling?" Dan Heng put away his spear and walked over to him, asking.

Lu Li said weakly, "I feel... like I'm about to die..."

"Not bad." Dan Heng nodded, giving an evaluation that made Lu Li want to punch someone.

"It's even better than I expected."

"Your body is adapting to this intensity of combat at an astonishing rate, and your fighting instincts are being gradually brought to the fore."

"You might be able to truly take control of it soon."

Hearing Dan Heng's words, Lu Li didn't even have the energy to roll his eyes.

Control my ass!

He just wants to be a salted fish now, not a warrior.

Just then, the train's announcement system suddenly came on.

"Waaah—please be careful, please be careful, P.A.!"

"The train is about to complete its jump and is expected to arrive at the transit station 'Interstellar Peace Commercial Center' in ten minutes!"

"In addition, Ms. Himeko received a formal communication request from the Interstellar Peace Corporation, which specifically requested to speak with the passengers of the Land Li."

"Passengers, please proceed to the observation car as soon as possible."

Lu Li: "..."

Interstellar Peace Corporation?

They specifically asked to see him?

Recalling what Himeko had said about Topa and the other person, a very bad premonition welled up in Riku's heart.

"Looks like trouble has come knocking." Dan Heng glanced at Lu Li and said calmly.

Lu Li: "..."

He just wants to play dead right now.

However, Walter clearly wouldn't give him that chance.

"Let's go, Lu Li." Walter, who had been watching the battle from the sidelines, patted him on the shoulder. "What's meant to be will be.

"We'll go with you."

Lu Li: "..."

I feel like a death row inmate about to be sent to the execution ground...

Lu Li, on the verge of tears, was "supported" by Walter and Dan Heng, one on each side, and dragged towards the observation car.
