Chapter 67

It truly opened their eyes.

At the same time, it made them feel utterly inadequate.

After all.

Even Lu En, a once-in-a-century peerless genius, had poured in so much time and sweat, devoting it all to frenzied training.

One might ask,

they, whose talent had always been mediocre to begin with,

how could they possibly continue to be lazy?

"Mr. Lu En possesses a heaven-defying talent that is utterly beyond our reach! Yet he still works so hard — it truly shames us."

"By comparison, we have neither such astonishing talent nor Mr. Lu En's powerful willpower. No wonder we're a bunch of weaklings — we deserve it!"

"If even a genius like Mr. Lu En cannot become a strong one, then, looking across this entire sea, I fear there is no second person qualified to become a strong one."

"This is a true, genuine monster! A peerless genius worthy of the name!"

"Clearly blessed with world-shocking, heaven-defying talent, he still trains relentlessly day and night without rest — how can people like us, with mediocre aptitude and lazy dispositions, bear it?"

"……"

Thus,

the atmosphere across the entire warship, driven by Lu En, turned positive and uplifting.

In plain words…

They were worked to death by Lu En!

Watching this,

the peerless genius Lu En was working this hard!

Every sailor on the warship had no choice but to grit their teeth and force themselves to throw themselves into their respective training.

A once-in-a-century genius was still cultivating diligently,

what excuse did they have to remain lazy?

"This… is the chain reaction a genius creates?"

Seeing a group of sailors gritting their teeth and training hard, the warship's second-in-command, Navy Petty Officer Bokato, could not help but exclaim in awe again and again.

Shifting his gaze,

he looked toward the other side of the deck, at that young figure still in the midst of cultivation, and his eyes filled with deep admiration.

"Is this the rhythm of completely working to death all the young people on this sea?"

"These days, even geniuses work this hard…"

With a strange expression, Bokato could not help inwardly muttering and complaining, "How are those people, whose aptitude was already incomparably mediocre to begin with, supposed to bear it?"

"They were already unable to catch up to geniuses."

"Let alone the fact that geniuses are now working harder than people like them."

"They're probably going to be completely in despair, right?"

Vaguely,

even he felt a sliver of pressure, wishing he could immediately throw himself into training and join that group of sailors cultivating diligently.

Thinking of this, Bokato could not help but let out a bitter laugh.

Obviously.

The current atmosphere across the entire warship…

had been completely thrown off course by Lu En alone!

This, is the influence of a genius!.
