After Gin Toki opened the passage, the three of them walked down. The stairs were very long, but with the lights along the way, it didn't feel dark.
After walking for a while, another door appeared. Gin Toki entered the password, and the door opened automatically.
"This..." Yang Xiao was shocked upon entering. The place was at least several thousand square meters, covered with lawns and all kinds of equipment, like a secret training base.
"The foundation of the Broken House is solid. This place is very safe, and you can fully develop your Quirks," Gin Toki said as he turned on all the lights in the training ground, suddenly illuminating the underground space.
"Gin-san, do you mean we'll be training here?" Toga asked, turning her head to look at the room beside them.
"Yes, but it's not me who will train you—it's them." Gin Toki pointed forward, and three people walked out of a building in the distance: Himejima Tae, Hime Shinpachi, and Tsuki Kagura.
"Long time no see." Himejima Tae smiled as she walked over from a distance, looking at Yang Xiao and Toga.
Himejima Tae was very satisfied with Yang Xiao. Whether it was missions or handling details, Yang Xiao had performed very well. It could be said that Yang Xiao had been a great help in their missions.
Toga might not have taken things seriously at first, but after settling in for a while, her work efficiency had improved significantly. She was often paired with Tsuki Kagura, so their relationship had gotten much better recently.
Toga still remembered how, at the beginning, Tsuki Kagura had scolded her several times. Back then, Toga had almost wanted to quit. Fortunately, she had endured it, and now she was almost on the right track.
"Seeing you two so full of energy motivates me too," Tsuki Kagura said to Yang Xiao and Toga.
"How do I look motivated?" Yang Xiao said helplessly. From Tsuki Kagura's tone, it seemed like she wanted to work him to death.
"Hey, what are you worried about, young man?" Tsuki Kagura patted Yang Xiao's shoulder. Yang Xiao felt as if a mountain were pressing down on him, and he couldn't even stand up straight.
"What kind of strength is this?" Yang Xiao was secretly shocked. If this kind of power landed a punch on someone, it would definitely be fatal.
Could Tsuki Kagura's Quirk be related to strength?
It was very likely—similar to Kagura in Gintama, both used strength as their ultimate weapon.
"Gin-san, when will the new recruits' training start?" Tsuki Kagura removed her hand from Yang Xiao's shoulder and turned to look at Gin Toki, who was spacing out.
"Anytime is fine. I'll head back first. I'll bring some midnight snacks later. You two just stay here," Gin Toki said before leaving.
"Then let's begin." Hime Shinpachi found a stool, sat down, took out some toys, and started playing.
The next moment, an aura of death washed over him. Hime Shinpachi immediately put down his phone, looked up, and forced a smile. "Sis, what do you want to do?"
"Move. This spot is mine," Himejima Tae said with a smile.
She was clearly smiling, but in Hime Shinpachi's eyes, it was the most terrifying smile in the world. "But sis, you're much stronger than me, so it's most appropriate for you to train them."
Himejima Tae smiled and said, "You also know that my strength is far greater than his and the others. With such a huge level gap, how can you expect me to teach them?"
"Uh..." Hime Shinpachi was stunned for a moment. It seemed true. When the level difference was too great, it was hard for the stronger one to understand the weaker one's perspective. Only when the strength gap wasn't too large could they provide some guidance.
But it still depended on the person. Some good teachers and trainers would tailor their training to the other's strength, but it was clear that Himejima Tae wasn't that type of person.
Hime Shinpachi had no choice but to stand up, but then he realized something was off about Himejima Tae's words. There was a big gap between her and Yang Xiao's strength, but the gap between Hime Shinpachi and Yang Xiao wasn't that large. Did that mean he was a rookie?
But he didn't dare refute his sister because if he did, he might face severe punishment.
"Alright, since that's the case, I'll train you. Be prepared!" Hime Shinpachi walked up to Yang Xiao and said. By then, Himejima Tae was already sitting on the stool, playing on her phone and resting.
Toga was trained by Tsuki Kagura, and the two groups trained separately in different areas.
"I don't know what your Quirk is yet. How about this—show it to me?" Hime Shinpachi said with his hands on his hips.
"Are you sure?" Yang Xiao asked, widening his eyes.
"Nonsense!" Hime Shinpachi scolded. "If you don't show me, how can I know your Quirk? How can I train you?"
"Okay," Yang Xiao smiled, raised his right hand, pointed his index finger, and said, "Shinpachi, look at this finger of mine."
Actually, Yang Xiao had originally wanted to raise his middle finger, but the provocation would have been too strong, and he might have been beaten to death by Hime Shinpachi.
"What about it?" Hime Shinpachi stared directly at Yang Xiao's index finger. The next moment, the index finger suddenly flashed, and his vision went dark.
"Ah!" Hime Shinpachi covered his eyes with his hands and screamed. "It hurts so much! What's going on?"
"Huh?" Himejima Tae had just felt a flash around her. When she looked up, she saw Hime Shinpachi covering his eyes and screaming. Could it be that Yang Xiao had injured Shinpachi?
Logically, it shouldn't be possible. Hime Shinpachi had already surpassed the Tenth Level of the Ordinary Realm. Ordinary people really couldn't be his match.
"What's your Quirk?" Hime Shinpachi asked after five minutes. His eyes felt better by then, but he still had some trouble seeing clearly.
"My Quirk is... Flash?" Yang Xiao said uncertainly.
"Is your Quirk only good for sneak attacks? Does it have any other uses?" Hime Shinpachi took a deep breath and looked at Yang Xiao. "If it has no other uses, you might get beaten to death by me."
Yang Xiao was thinking about whether he should reveal his true Quirk. After all, his Holy Light Quirk was completely different from his Flash Quirk. Flash only made it hard for people to open their eyes, but Holy Light allowed for full-body armament.
However, Yang Xiao felt that the people in the Broken House should be trustworthy. After thinking for a moment, he said, "I can use this light to arm parts of my body, increasing my strength and providing hardened protection."
This was the simplest explanation—the current function of his Holy Light. If the Holy Light Quirk were improved, he could not only arm his body but also release Holy Light. In short, it was a very powerful Quirk.
"Hearing you say that, your Quirk is pretty good, huh?" Hime Shinpachi smiled slightly, then raised his right leg. "Now I'm going to use my Quirk to attack you. Let me see your strength. Don't be too weak."
"Okay..." Yang Xiao had just said "Okay" when Hime Shinpachi rushed toward him like a shadow and directly whipped a kick toward his waist.
Holy Light, cover.
The Holy Light enveloped his left forearm. Hime Shinpachi's leg swept over and accurately kicked Yang Xiao's forearm. Yang Xiao felt a tearing pain. Even with the Holy Light, he was kicked more than ten meters away by Hime Shinpachi and fell to the ground.
