The sunset training ground imparts techniques; chakra blades are sworn to be sharp.

When the God-Defying Squad returned to their temporary base, the sunset was slanting across the horizon, dyeing the sand and gravel on the training ground a warm gold. Having just witnessed Ning Rongrong break through the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, Hyuga Hanabi stood in the center of the training ground, fists clenched, red Chakra dancing at her fingertips—this little princess of the Hyuga Clan had been curious and unconvinced by Su Chen's God-Defying Power ever since she was summoned, always wanting to verify the strength gap for herself.

"Su Chen!" Hanabi's voice was crisp and stubborn. Her Byakugan activated quietly, her white pupils filled with a competitive glint. "Sister Ning Rongrong could break through her shackles, so I can become stronger too! Do you dare to spar with me? I want to see just how powerful your God-Defying Power really is!"

The Sisters had just unloaded their bags and gathered around upon seeing this. Xiao Wu hugged her arms and laughed, "Little Sister Hanabi is bursting with energy, but Big Brother Su Chen's strength is not so easy to challenge." Kushina crossed her arms, her long red hair fluttering in the wind. "This girl's personality is a bit like mine when I was young. It's good not to admit defeat; she has drive!"

Su Chen looked at the burning gaze of Hanabi before him, his black-gold eyes filled with a smile. "You can spar if you want, but I have a condition—if you lose, you must obediently listen to my guidance and learn how to combine the Byakugan with the God-Defying Power."

"No problem!" Hanabi agreed without hesitation, her hands forming seals rapidly. Red Chakra condensed into a sharp chakra blade. "I won't lose! Take this, Su Chen!"

Before the words faded, Hanabi flashed forward. Using the Byakugan's dynamic vision to lock onto Su Chen's position, the chakra blade slashed toward Su Chen's shoulder with a sharp whistling sound. Her attack was swift and direct, the chakra blade glowing with a faint red light, clearly using all her strength.

Su Chen stood motionless, only turning slightly when the chakra blade was about to touch his shoulder, his black-gold God-Defying Power condensing into a thin light shield. With a crisp "clang," the chakra blade struck the light shield, sending sparks flying. Hanabi felt a powerful recoil travel up the hilt, her wrist going numb, and the chakra blade nearly slipped from her hand.

"Is this the God-Defying Power?" Hanabi was startled but refused to admit defeat. Her Byakugan locked onto Su Chen's movements, and she moved like a ghost behind him, slashing with the chakra blade again from a tricky angle.

"The Byakugan's dynamic vision is indeed powerful, but your Chakra lacks resilience, and your attacks have no method." Su Chen commented while dodging effortlessly. His figure was like willow catkins in the wind; no matter how fast Hanabi's attacks were, he could predict and avoid them in advance. The black-gold God-Defying Power turned into a light shield for defense or thin threads for Binding, always holding the absolute upper hand.

Hanabi attacked dozens of times in a row without even touching the hem of Su Chen's clothes. Instead, her breathing gradually became disordered due to excessive Chakra consumption. Gritting her teeth with a flicker of unwillingness in her eyes, she threw the chakra blade and formed seals with both hands. "Hyuga Style: Eight Trigrams Empty Palm!"

A white Chakra palm print carrying a powerful airflow blasted toward Su Chen. Su Chen waved his hand, and the black-gold God-Defying Power turned into a light blade, easily shattering the Eight Trigrams Empty Palm. The light blade continued with undiminished momentum, flying straight toward Hanabi, only to dissipate just before touching her.

"You lost." Su Chen's voice came calmly.

Hanabi stumbled back a few steps, her Chakra completely exhausted, and her Byakugan slowly closed. Her face was full of disappointment and stubbornness. "I... I haven't lost yet! Again!"

Su Chen walked up to her and ruffled her hair. "Not admitting defeat is a good thing, but blind challenges are just a waste of effort. Your Byakugan can perceive the enemy's movements, and your Chakra is pure enough, but you lack the method to combine the two perfectly, and even more so, you haven't integrated the core of the God-Defying Power."

Hanabi looked up, confusion in her eyes. "How do I combine the God-Defying Power with the Byakugan and Chakra? There has never been such a method in the Hyuga Clan's secret arts."

"The God Realm can set rules, and we can break them." Su Chen turned and walked to the center of the training ground, his black-gold God-Defying Power condensing into a scepter. "The core of the Byakugan is insight, the core of Chakra is attack, and the core of the God-Defying Power is breaking the situation. Combining the three allows you to use the Byakugan to lock onto flaws and the God-Defying Power to strengthen Chakra, making your attacks invincible."

He signaled for Hanabi to come over. "I'll teach you, watch closely."

Su Chen activated the God-Defying Byakugan (Hinata's previous auxiliary ability had been integrated into Su Chen's Nishen system, allowing temporary borrowing of Byakugan characteristics), black nishen markings appearing in his white pupils, instantly locking onto a giant rock in the distance. "First, use the Byakugan to find the target's weakest point, then inject the God-Defying Power into the Chakra, and attack along the trajectory locked by the Byakugan to achieve precise armor-breaking."

As he spoke, Su Chen condensed red Chakra at his fingertips (simulating Hanabi's Chakra attribute) and infused it with the black-gold God-Defying Power, forming a slender chakra blade that flew toward the giant rock. The chakra blade seemed alive, precisely hitting the rock's weak point, and with a "crack," the rock instantly shattered into countless fragments.

Hanabi's eyes lit up, her previous disappointment swept away. "So powerful! Su Chen, teach me quickly! I want to learn this kind of attack too!"

"Don't rush, take it one step at a time." Su Chen instructed patiently. "First, activate the Byakugan, concentrate your mind to lock onto my God-Defying Power, and feel its flow trajectory."

Hanabi obediently activated her Byakugan, her white pupils staring intently at the God-Defying Power in Su Chen's palm. Under the insight of the Byakugan, she could clearly see the violent yet orderly flow contained within the black-gold energy, as well as the power to break the situation.

"Now, condense your Chakra, try to get close to the God-Defying Power, and let them resonate." Su Chen slowly released a trace of God-Defying Power, drifting toward Hanabi.

Hanabi took a deep breath, concentrated her mind to condense Chakra, and red Chakra danced in her palm, carefully approaching the God-Defying Power. The moment her Chakra touched the God-Defying Power, a violent force surged in. Hanabi's body couldn't help but tremble, and her Chakra nearly went out of control.

"Steady your mind, use the Byakugan to guide the flow of Chakra, and circulate it along the trajectory of the God-Defying Power." Su Chen's voice came in time, carrying a soothing power.

Hanabi gritted her teeth, relying on the Hyuga Clan's resilience and the Byakugan's precise control to forcibly stabilize her Chakra. Following Su Chen's instructions, she guided the Chakra to slowly fuse with the God-Defying Power. Black nishen markings gradually appeared within the red Chakra, and the originally pure red chakra blade became sharper, emitting a heart-stopping aura.

"Very good, now try attacking that wooden stake." Su Chen pointed to a wooden stake not far away.

Hanabi's eyes sharpened. Her Byakugan locked onto the wooden stake's weak point, and holding the chakra blade fused with the God-Defying Power, she rushed forward. With a "swish," the chakra blade precisely hit the wooden stake's weak point, and the stake was instantly split in two, the cut smooth and flat, far exceeding her previous attack effect.

"I succeeded! I succeeded!" Hanabi jumped up excitedly, her eyes full of ecstasy. She turned to look at Su Chen, her eyes filled with adoration. "Su Chen, thank you! This move is too powerful!"

Su Chen looked at her excited appearance, his black-gold eyes filled with gratification. "This is just the foundation. Next, I will teach you how to perfectly combine the Byakugan's insight with this kind of attack, making you a true sharp blade."

For the next two hours, the sunset gradually sank, and the sounds of weapons clashing drifted across the training ground. Su Chen guided Hanabi on adjusting the fusion ratio of Chakra and God-Defying Power while using the God-Defying Power to simulate enemy attacks, letting her practice how to quickly lock onto flaws and counterattack using the Byakugan.

Hanabi learned exceptionally earnestly, her clothes soaked with sweat, but she did not slack off at all. Under Su Chen's careful guidance, she made rapid progress, not only being able to skillfully combine the Byakugan, Chakra, and God-Defying Power but also being able to use them flexibly in battle, with her attack speed and precision taking a qualitative leap.

The sunset completely set, night fell, and faint spirit power light lit up around the training ground. Hanabi held the chakra blade and launched another attack at Su Chen. This time, her attack was both swift and precise, the black nishen markings on the chakra blade flickering, and every slash carried the power to break the situation, forcing even Su Chen to respond seriously.

"Stop!" Su Chen raised his hand to block her attack, his black-gold light shield colliding with the chakra blade with a crisp sound. "You have mastered the core techniques; now you only need to practice continuously to become more proficient."

Hanabi put away the chakra blade and walked to Su Chen, a hint of shyness on her face, but more of it was determination. She took a deep breath, formed seals with both hands, and condensed a ball of pure red Chakra in her palm, offering it to Su Chen. "Su Chen, thank you for teaching me such a powerful skill. Before, I always wanted to prove that I was no worse than anyone else, but I couldn't find the right method. It was you who let me know what true strength is."

Her gaze was incomparably firm, and her white pupils shimmered with sincere light. "I am willing to offer my Chakra to you. From now on, I will be your sharpest blade! Whether you have to face the God Realm Enforcers or other enemies, I will use this blade to clear all obstacles for you!"

In the close-up, the red Chakra in Hanabi's palm shimmered with faint black nishen markings, the light soft yet firm. In the medium shot, the afterglow of the sunset (the last ray of rosy light) spilled over the two, lengthening their figures. Hanabi's gesture of offering the Chakra was solemn, her eyes full of decisiveness and loyalty.

Su Chen looked at the Chakra she offered and then at her firm gaze, a warm current surging in his heart. He reached out and took the Chakra, the red Chakra intertwining with the God-Defying Power in his palm to form a faint band of light. "I accept your heart. From now on, I will protect you and ensure that this sharp blade of yours will never gather dust."

Hearing this, a brilliant smile appeared on Hanabi's face, like the sun after the rain—dazzling and warm. She knew she had made the right choice. Following Su Chen, she could not only become stronger but also find a true sense of belonging.

The surrounding Sisters watched this scene and all showed gratified smiles. Xiao Wu stepped forward and patted Hanabi on the shoulder. "Little Sister Hanabi, from now on we are Sisters fighting side by side. With Big Brother Su Chen here, we will all become stronger and stronger."

Kushina also laughed. "I like this girl's personality. In the future, on the battlefield, we can form a Chakra squad and charge into battle together!"

Hanabi nodded vigorously, her eyes full of expectation. She looked at the Sisters around her and then at Su Chen, her heart filled with strength. She knew the path of nishen was destined to be filled with thorns, but with Su Chen and the Sisters, she was fearless.

Su Chen looked at the united Sisters before him, his black-gold eyes full of determination. Hanabi's bond mission was completed, and the God-Defying Squad's strength had improved again. Next, it was time for the bond missions of Sisters like Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan, and Xiao Ling was about to face his third crushing defeat.

"It's getting late, everyone rest first." Su Chen said. "Tomorrow, we set off for the Poison Mist Valley to help Xiao Yi Xian control her God-Defying Poison Body."

"Okay!" The Sisters responded in unison and followed Su Chen back to the base. On the training ground, the lingering charm of the red Chakra intertwined with the black-gold God-Defying Power had not yet dissipated, just like the bond between Hanabi and Su Chen—just begun, yet destined to be firm and brilliant.
