Then how about you, Sarona?\" He shot back. \"What are you doing here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He crossed his arms, muscles bulging. \"Why is the matriarch of the renowned Shivera Clan strolling around the God Archipelago?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona’s brows knit together just a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked away, eyes sweeping over the distant islands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m merely taking a walk,\" she replied. \"This place appeared suddenly and changed the balance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She paused. \"A new power formed from the fusion of the Avenora Clan and the Revalis Clan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze sharpened. \"I wanted to see how capable they truly are.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vargan snorted. \"Tch. Always judging.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaned back slightly, stretching his neck. \"Then I guess we’re here for similar reasons.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona turned back to him. \"Oh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course,\" Vargan said easily. \"But I’m also here to check on my son.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona’s eyes flickered. \"Valtor Vulkran.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s right,\" Vargan said proudly. \"He should’ve joined the God Gym already.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona raised an eyebrow. \"Interesting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She faced him fully now. \"So the patriarch of the Vulkran Clan sends his heir away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice grew sharper. \"Are you saying the God Gym is superior to your own clan?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vargan laughed loudly. \"Hahaha! You really don’t hold back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaned closer, eyes bright. \"Strength decides everything. If this place can make my son stronger, why wouldn’t I let him stay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona’s lips pressed into a thin line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vargan tilted his head. \"But let me ask you something.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He smirked. \"How about your daughter?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona’s expression darkened. \"Don’t say her name lightly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seira Shivera,\" Vargan continued without care. \"Cold, sharp, stubborn. She fits right in here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona frowned. \"What are you implying?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vargan laughed again. \"Don’t pretend you don’t know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed lazily toward the inner islands. \"You sent her here to keep an eye on my son.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona’s eyes narrowed. The air around her chilled slightly, frost creeping along the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So what if I did?\" she said flatly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vargan grinned wider. \"Hah! Straight answer. I like that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shrugged. \"Valtor needs someone strong to push him. And Seira?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He chuckled. \"She won’t go easy on anyone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona crossed her arms. \"Do not misunderstand. I did not send her for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure, sure,\" Vargan said, waving a hand. \"But if they clash, that’s good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona shot him a sharp look. \"You treat everything like a battlefield.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s because it is,\" Vargan replied without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cracked his neck and looked around, eyes bright. \"Especially here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spread his arms slightly, as if showing the islands to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s only been a little over a year since the God Gym was formed. Just one year.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona followed his gaze in silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And look at it now,\" Vargan continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Two top clans broken down and fused into one force. An entire archipelago shaped by that fusion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He laughed under his breath. \"That doesn’t happen by luck.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona’s eyes narrowed. \"You’ve done your homework.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I had to,\" Vargan said easily. \"I also heard something interesting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaned forward a little. \"They’re body cultivators.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona’s expression shifted slightly. \"So?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So am I,\" Vargan said, tapping his chest. \"Which means I’m curious.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He grinned. \"How strong are they really? And more importantly...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice lowered. \"What’s their secret?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona frowned. \"So that’s your real goal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She turned fully toward him. \"You want to steal the God Gym’s methods.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vargan burst out laughing. \"Steal? That’s a harsh word.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He waved a hand dismissively. \"Don’t pretend that every clan builds their techniques from the ground up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at her. \"You think the Shivera Clan didn’t study others in its early days?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona didn’t answer right away. Her silence was enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I thought so,\" Vargan said, still smiling. \"That’s how the world works.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona sighed quietly. \"I know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She opened her mouth to continue...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Footsteps echoed behind them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both of them turned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A man approached calmly, posture straight and composed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Patriarch Vargan of the Vulkran Clan,\" he said evenly. \"Matriarch Sarona of the Shivera Clan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both of them stiffened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona’s eyes sharpened. \"You know us?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man allowed himself a small smile. \"Of course.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He bowed slightly. \"My name is Rendric Revalis.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vargan raised an eyebrow. \"Revalis?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona studied him more closely. Then realization dawned. \"I see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She nodded once. \"You’re Elder Rendric. The one who spread the reputation of the God Gym... and the God Archipelago.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rendric inclined his head. \"I’m honored you recognize me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vargan crossed his arms. \"You’re calm for someone greeting two outsiders.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This place welcomes strength,\" Rendric replied simply. \"And status.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gestured toward the inner islands. \"Which is why I’m here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona’s eyes flickered. \"Why?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For figures of your stature,\" Rendric said, \"it would be improper not to introduce you properly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vargan chuckled. \"Introduce us to who?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rendric smiled. \"Patriarch Raviel Revalis and Matriarch Aveline Avenora.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona went still.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vargan’s grin widened. \"Hah. Straight to the top, huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rendric turned and began walking. \"Please follow me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as they were about to move, Sarona spoke again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn’t the true head of this place... Garion?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rendric stopped and let out a short laugh. \"Please. Master Garion isn’t here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced back at them. \"He’s on another island.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vargan clicked his tongue. \"Figures.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rendric continued walking, hands behind his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For now, it’s best that you meet the patriarch and matriarch.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona narrowed her eyes. \"You sound confident.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rendric smiled faintly. \"Because you don’t understand this archipelago yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slowed his steps slightly. \"There are roles here. Order. And reasons.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vargan chuckled. \"Then lead on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarona followed in silence, her gaze steady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whatever this God Gym truly was...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They would judge it properly, starting from the top.\u003C\u002Fp>",1002,"2026-06-06T11:12:18.543Z",1,"novelbin.me","3b256fbf9855513d96081c860d0318c8147eae3696cb2862332ad73a1548a75f","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-32","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-31",613,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fheretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-cover.jpg"]
