Combat Training Facility
"Welcome! To one among thousands or maybe hundreds of thousands of the Combat Training facilities!"
Hul stood before Lian Zu and his female companion with open arms as he spoke with a smile; it was as if he was excited about the duo's reaction after seeing the epic interior of the building. And indeed, the interior was breathtaking; both Lian Zu and the girl, Lan Fan, couldn't help but express admiration.
The building's interior was spacious, similar to its exterior. Countless white glowing energy essences hovered within the hall, serving as lights and completely illuminating the spacious hall from any darkness. At the center of the hall were over a thousand straight energy lines which went all the way up within the building, each of these lines serving as an elevator as one could see numerous cultivators and Athosians standing on materialized round platforms as they got elevated into whatever type of combat training they wanted.
"Fascinating! Isn't it? Trust me; we haven't even reached the fun part yet. Now let's register your badges; the building's MI, 'Magical Intelligence,' will record your training and later provide you with pointers for your cultivation techniques and realms."
Hul spoke casually as if his words weren't much to think about. But upon hearing the latter part of Hul's sentence, Lian Zu expressed with widened eyes as he paused Hul. He had a doubtful face as he asked.
"I don't mean to interrupt, Brother Hul, but you said something about an MI?! And how it gives us pointers?!"
"Yes. The MI, also known as 'Magical Intelligence,' is a magical consciousness that can analyze, eliminate weaknesses, reform, or, best case, recreate any technique or skill; it can even finish any incomplete cultivation method you can imagine. Amazing, right? What's even fascinating is that there are MIs in every facility in Athos, meaning-
Meaning, one can learn the perfect version of any cultivation method, skill, technique, or mantra without worrying about the slightest side effects; I'm I right, Brother Hul?!"
"...Not bad, but you are correct."
Lian Zu interrupted Hul as he finished the sentence for him. He had a shocked yet enlightened face as he stared at the huge revolving energy ball in the hall's center, the building's MI. Although excited, the one emotion Lian Zu felt the most was fear. The fact that Athos possesses all these mythical capabilities and impossible-to-believe items and creations was one scary thought. Who would dare ever face Athos with their never-ending reality-shattering power?
Numerous thoughts crossed Lian Zu's mind as he stared at Hul. Thinking that this little kid has the background of a World-Ending superpower was just too unbearable, even for a reincarnate like him with double life experience. Without knowing the emotional turmoil Lian Zu and his companion were experiencing, Hul brushed past everything as he continued speaking while leading the group, the presence of such creations and impossibilities not fazing him as a citizen the least.
"Anyways, let's continue; I have yet to show you the more interesting part. And as for registering your badges, just say the word 'Register,' and the MI will provide you a holographic keyboard where you can type your names... try it."
With a doubtful and hesitant expression, Lian Zu held his badge as he uttered. "Register." Simultaneously, his square-shaped badge lit, followed by a green-colored holographic keyboard appearing before him. Although hesitant and baffled, Lian Zu stretched his fingers as he entered his name. Not long after, the girl also completed hers.
"Well then, now we go to the training grounds. Mine is usually Sector X999. There are unlimited sectors, as according to the MIs, His Highness, the One Above, sees us as having unlimited potential; therefore, there are unlimited training grounds to match our unlimited potential. I know, right? What a crazy creation."
Hul spoke as they stepped toward one of the many straight energy lines; simultaneously, a large round platform materialized under the trio, timely matching their step. Lian Zu had a shocked face as he fearfully stared at Hul, switching his view to the bright glow surrounding them. He thought as he recollected memories since arriving in Athos.
'A realm with unlimited pure energy, numerous Saint Ancestors as escorts, unlimited resources, and now a training chamber with unlimited levels? How is any of this even possible? Don't they all go against the rules of the Universe?! Why is everything in Athos so reality-shattering?! Nothing in this realm makes sense.'
Upon standing on the platform, a calm female mechanical tone sounded.
"Yes, please!"
Suddenly, the round platform flashed out of the scene as it ascended, flashing numerous times faster than the speed of light.

The disappearance of Hul's group was followed by the entrance of the seven Dao children; although quiet, the group drew the attention of many visiting cultivators and Athosians. Some cultivators couldn't help but exclaim.
"Hey! Aren't those Dao children? Yes, from their attires, they must be the Dao children. To think even they would come."
"Have they come to use the Training Facility? They would likely use the 'Arena Sector,' as that's where most of the cultivators are interested."
"Or they might choose any of the Training Sectors; who knows!"
A group of outside male cultivators recognized the group as they chatted.
The group of seven Dao Children steadily walked past as the cultivators instinctually avoided them. Only Athosians weren't that much focused on the group; some only gave them a normal glance as they carried on with their lives; as to them, who or what could be more eye-catching and admiring than their leaders of Athos?
The bun-haired male Dao Child led the group, with the burly Dao Child being last behind. The MI sounded as the group slowly approached the center of the spacious hall.
The Dao Children had surprised faces as they stared at the floating ball of energy essence before them; despite being Dao Children and having seen countless wonders and mythical creatures, this was their first time encountering a conscious building. But unlike his brethren, the leader among the Dao Children had a calm expression; he curiously inspected the talking cloud of energy essence as he stepped forward. He spoke.
"We want to train."
