One soul, two twins, the other half is Bronya

In the audience, Shinguji Kurono was quite concerned about Byakuya's ability to lie, and confirmed it again, "So, who do you think will win?"

Is this considered a test? Bai Ye folded his arms on the guardrail and slowly uttered a word: "One Sword Shura."

"..., it seems that what you said is indeed not false, at least some of it is indeed true."

"Really? Maybe I did some research?"

Bai Ye responded with a meaningful smile, then turned his gaze towards the training ground, "Alright, Chairman, at least for now, let's watch this battle for a bit more..."

"Imitating sword skills? I'm quite curious. Black Iron seems to have many secret swords. I wonder if I can see them?"

Hearing this, Shinguji Kurono gave Byakuya a deep look. Observing the future? This is truly… Kurogane Ikki's secrets are almost completely exposed.

On the training ground, the clash of swords continued. Surrounded by blazing flames, Kurogane Ikki defended tightly, blocking all of Stella's attacks.

"Hey, Xiao Hei is really..."

Just at this moment, a voice with a hint of childishness sounded beside Bai Ye and Bronya - [Yashahime] Xijing Ningyin!

Xijing Ningyin leaned against the railing, the loose and ill-fitting kimono on her petite body exposing her entire shoulders.

With her young face and tender voice, she looks like a little girl who is not doing her job properly.

"How could you not tell me about this?"

"Ningning? You will definitely find out by yourself, right?" Shinguji Kurono knew who the person was without turning around.

"That's right. But don't you feel a little surprised? That genius knight, Stella Familion..."

The battle continues.

Kurogane Ikki struggled to neutralize the attack and gradually mastered Stella's moves through "imitating sword techniques". And then, it was his turn to counterattack!

And in Stella's eyes, it seemed as if her shadow appeared faintly in Kurogane Ikki's movements? His sword skills were gradually approaching hers.

"My sword skills...why did you use this move?"

Another collision occurred, and Stella blocked Hui's Yin Tie, with a hint of uncertainty in her tone.

"Ultimately, once you master all of them, you'll understand all of them. That's my 'Imitative Sword Skill'!"

The swords clashed again and again, and Kurogane Ikki seized the opportunity, and Yintie successfully broke through Stella's defense. However... a thick layer of magic covered it, blocking the sword.

Seeing this, Kurogane Ikki quickly retreated, creating some distance. Stella also slowly stood up...

"Winning in this way is truly dishonorable. I originally wanted to win with swordsmanship, to show you that I'm more than just a talented person. Now it seems... I'll have to use magic as well."

"Is it coming?" (Bai Ye)

On the field, Kurogane Ikki expressed his philosophy, and a terrifying storm of magic power erupted from his body, "One Sword Shura!"

——Use my weakest to defeat your strongest!

As expected, after using this move, speed, strength, magic power... were all supplemented in all aspects, and Ikki Kurogane won the battle.

The F-rank knight's outburst was astonishing, but afterward, he collapsed powerlessly.

"That's it! The winner is Kurogane Ikki!"

As Shinguji Kurono announced the result, the dust settled and the audience seats at the training ground were suddenly in an uproar.

"How is that possible? Then, is that really Kurogane Ikki?"

"That failed knight actually..."

"Hey, is there anyone who was in the same class with him last year?"

"Are you kidding me?"

"..."

Amidst the noise, medical staff also rushed to the training ground and quickly carried the two unconscious people away.

"Oh, this year's representative selection competition is really interesting." Xijing Ningyin waved her fan and was about to leave, but something caught her attention.

Right beside her, Bai Ye extended his right index finger, a cluster of pure white magic slowly burning at the fingertip, "One Sword Shura, it's indeed quite different from the original."

A sword-wielding Shura was almost a sign of a fallen world. Furthermore, the principle behind it was almost obvious, and Bai Ye had certainly researched it.

◆One Sword Shura

This ultimate skill consumes all energy within one minute and can only be activated once a day. Its core lies in "consumption" or "burning".

In the infinite world, "burning" can be said to be a very common move. And the pinnacle of the burning style is naturally the Krypton Life Style in the Saint Seiya world - "Burn, my little universe"!

Of course, Bai Ye couldn't achieve this level, but this didn't prevent him from drawing on its connotation and developing a replica of "One Sword Shura".

By burning magic power, a greater power could be unleashed. Although the increase wouldn't be too outrageous, it was at least controllable, with almost no damage.

……

"Oh my~ This is a bit similar to the one just now~" Xijing Ningyin came to Bai Ye almost instantly.

Unfortunately, a slender arm reached out and stopped her. Bronya said calmly, "If I remember correctly, you should be Teacher Ning Yin, right?"

"Was that 'Chuzu' just now?"

Bai Ye also extinguished his magic power and looked over here. "It's really interesting to use the subconscious step."

"Hey, you found it too?"

"Bioelectricity."

A flash of pure white yang lightning flashed from Yu Baiye's fingertips. Even without this, the battles in the Qin Dynasty world were enough to train him.

"I'm starting to get interested in you~"

"From what Bronya understands, whenever Teacher Ning Yin calls herself 'concubine', it's usually done deliberately to tease young men who don't understand her."

"Ningning, what are you doing again?" At this time, Shinguji Kurono had also finished the finishing work and walked over here.

"Xiao Hei, Xiao Hei, where did you find this little monster? Please introduce it to me~"

Unfortunately, Heino ignored it and looked at Baiye instead, "Look at your eyes, do you have something to say to me?"

"Chairman, if there is a chance, I hope to have a one-on-one match with Kurogane Ikki."

At this moment, in Bai Ye's hand, a Tang Dynasty sword flashed with a cold light... All things appeared here, "What a rare school of skills. I am very interested in that guy."

"..."

There was a moment of silence. Kurono stared at Baiye for a long moment, almost certain that he was serious. "Are you serious? I thought you'd look down on F-rank like everyone else."

"Chairman, you forgot~"

Bai Ye closed one eye and tapped his eyelid lightly with his index finger. "My eyes can see things. This is not a lie~"

6. [Thunder]'s Invitation

"So what did you see?"

"It's just a possibility, not very accurate."

"...Okay, I'll ask Kurogane Ikki's wishes later. If he agrees, your duel will probably be set."

"Then I'll trouble you, Chairman."

Byakuya and Shinguji Kurono continued chatting, leaving Bronya and Saikyo Nene aside.

Emmm…Since that’s the case, Xijing Ningyin ignored them and turned her gaze to Bronya beside her, “Hey, your name is Bronya, right?”

"Yes, Mr. Ning Yin."

"Let's talk. Xiao Hei doesn't want to play with me, so let them chat on their own. We can talk about our own things." Ning Yin almost instantly went around behind Bronya, but...

But Bronya dodged it! A dark lightning flashed on the white and tender fingertips, "Teacher Ning Yin, pulling it out is useless against Bronya."

"How come you also know this trick?" Ning Yin couldn't help but feel a little annoyed after failing to sneak attack again. But with her young body, she looked adorable.

It was obvious that he was pretending, but Bronya ignored him and talked about other topics. "Speaking of which... "Xiao Hei", he should be referring to the chairman, right?"

"Bai Ye happens to be called "Xiao Bai"~"

"Xiaobai, that's concise and clear."

"By the way, Mr. Ning Yin, your ability is gravity manipulation, right? Then theoretically, you must be able to create a gravity field. Can you give us individual tutoring?"

"...Bronya, do you really understand the significance of gravity training? Without using magic, a human who exercises can only withstand about four times the force of gravity at most."

"Once this value is exceeded, the body will suffer instantaneous and large-scale shattering damage!"

"Even when completely motionless, the human body can only withstand a ninefold increase. This is the human limit, a bottleneck imposed by the structure of the organism."

"Gravity is no joke. If you make even the slightest mistake during your training, your body will be torn to shreds by this force of the world in an instant."

"Ningning is right. Even so, you still insist on doing this?" Shinguji Kurono also looked over.

"If you're thinking, 'Give it a try, and if you can't handle it, the worst that can happen is you'll get hurt,' I advise you to give up."

“He’ll die.”

Xijing Ningyin added the last sentence. Suddenly, a chilling aura erupted from his childish body.

Bai Ye and Bronya looked at each other and said, "Chairman, how do you think we usually train?"

Is it because of Pharmacist Wu Zi?

But then, Bai Ye's words dispelled this idea, "It should be circulated in the outside world as well, right?"

Bronya then took over and spoke, "The [Twins of Lightning]—[Dark Lightning] Bronya, and [White Lightning] Byakuya."

"Lei Guang should understand, but only the twins..."

"It's not just the outward appearance of being inseparable, Byakuya and Bronya are true twins."

"As long as one survives, the other won't truly die. So when we fight, there's always...bloodshed!"

Bai Ye's words seemed lighthearted, but between them... there was a hint of blood. "Only through inhuman trials can one become the strongest."

"...Well, let's leave this topic at that for now. We'll discuss it again after you submit your formal application in the student handbook."

Seeing that the other party had even revealed the secret of the "twins", Heino also understood their determination and took a step back for the time being.

But it still needs careful consideration. After all, as teachers, she and Ning Yin are responsible for the safety of every student.

With that, the matter came to an end. As for Shinguji Kurono…she still had to go check on the two people who were carried into the infirmary, so she left first.

"Well, Bronya, Xiaobai, I'll take my leave too." Ning Yin unfolded the folding fan in her hand, half-covered her face, and retreated.

"It's time to go, Bronya."

Being too persistent would easily lead to points being deducted, so Bai Ye beckoned Bronya to leave. They were essentially one person, so there was no need to say anything more; Bronya understood.

"Is Bai Ye planning to go find Heitie tomorrow?"

"Of course, the regeneration pod is quite useful to a certain extent. By tomorrow, I'll probably be back to full strength again~"

"So, Bai Ye wants to send the other party in again?"

"How could that be? I know my limits. Besides, the gears of fate have already started turning..."

Although he didn't continue, Bronya probably understood what he was saying - he naturally wanted to get involved.

After returning to the dormitory, Bronya turned on her cell phone and made a call as the pharmacist Kiriko had instructed her to do.

"Good afternoon, Sister Wuzi."

"It's Bronya~"

In the video, Pharmacist Wu Zi is dressed in a white coat with a black T-shirt underneath, which highlights her proud figure. Her emerald eyes have a gentleness unique to doctors.

However… only when facing Bai Ye and Bronya, his gentle eyes would show a subtle change, "I was taking care of a patient just now, so I was a little delayed."

"It's okay, Sister Kiriko. You are the best doctor. Of course, you have to put the patient's condition first. Bronya understands."

"As expected, my Bronya is the best~"

Pharmacist Wuzi leaned on the desk, her mature voice revealing a hint of coquettishness. "Okay, why are you calling me so early today? Did something happen?"
