As they had reached the training room, there was a bunch of equipment in there. From weights and practice weapons to actual weapons and machines like the ones found at Gyms.
"We just have to wait for Chimena to bring the tablets and we can know for sure. While we wait, since we're here, how about sparing a bit?" Maverick suggested.
"You can do that, I'm fine staying here with Nishat. Maybe I can show handsome here around a bit more? Maybe teach you a thing or two?" The woman with flaming hair leaned onto Viggo's arm making sure you pressure her breasts against him, while she spoke.
"Are you seriously doing this?! We don't even know if this guy is any good or telling the truth at all yet! How can you be so shameless?" The young man asked.
"Usually I would be all for beating Bellion up, but he's not wrong. You don't know anything about this guy other than the fact he's the student of some Xeno guy, who we also know nothing about, except that he supposedly saved Maverick at the right time. Isn't any of that suspicious to you?" The blond young lady pointed out.
"Let her do what she wants, not only is she an adult, but she's also more than strong to take care of herself. She's honestly the last person, I'd be worried about. All of us are in danger compared to her." The purple-haired young lady added.
"Hum... I guess, I appreciate the worry, but you're all being rude to Nishat right now, not to mention that I'm well aware of what I'm doing. Your worry is pointless, and you should focus on taking care of yourselves." The orange-haired woman retorted.
"It's not a big deal, I'd honestly be more worried if no one found my situation weird or had any doubts. It's normal to worry about situations you don't fully grasp or control." Viggo was not worried about what they had to say in the slightest. As long as there was no unwarranted disrespect or acts of violence toward him, why should he mind what others say? They were just grains of sand on the beach at the end of the day.
"See? You're all being stupid about this. Fortunately, Nishat is a true gentleman and doesn't let what comes from below bother him." Unlike Viggo who was overly chill, the orange-haired woman was a bit more confrontational, as she clung to him.
"BELOW?! ME?! Bellion Ven Juartiny?! Below a MERE, bodyguard?! Preposterous! You must be under the same spell as father, only that explains this lesser behavior from individuals in the Juartiny family! Worry not, I'll take care of this parasite before he and his so-called master can taint our family anymore." Bellion couldn't take anymore of this clownery, as they not only allowed some unknown outsider with no name to themselves to be among them, but he's being fancied by his older sister of all people?! She never showed interest in even the most prominent of talents in the whole world, and here comes this nobody, and she gets all clingy?! Impossible! There has to be something going on in the background.
"Calm down! You can't just go ahead and attack the disciple of my benefactor! If you want to fight, let's do things properly. Plus, even of your crazy theory is somehow the truth, you'll never get anywhere without proof." Maverick stood in front of the angered Bellion, not allowing him to get to Nishat.
"He's so braindead sometimes..." The blond young woman commented.
"Sometimes?... I think you mean always. His anger issues are beyond help, if he didn't have a better talent than us, do you think he would ever be at a higher cultivation level than us?" The purple young woman added while jabbing at Bellion with her comments.
"Hmph! Ok, then let us do things your way brother. Nishat was it? I hereby challenge you for a heavenly dual. The condition being the standard one, as the victor gets to ask any one wish from the opponent except their lives. What do you say?" Bellion announced while stretching his hand to Viggo.
Everyone's attention was then placed on Viggo, and he responded by walking to Bellion and taking his hand.
"Under the heavens, I hereby accept this heavenly dual"
"Under the heavens, I hereby accept this heavenly dual"
One after the other, they took the challenge as a golden glow surrounded them as proof that the dual was marked by the heavens.
Following that, both Bellion and Viggo were standing in one of the battle stages found in the mansion's training room.

Viggo checked Bellion's status screen as a precaution, but he was not worried and this just proved him right as Bellion represented no real threat to him or his life at all.
"Let's see if the claims you made live up to your skills." Bellion charged at Viggo and immediately began attacking with palm strikes rather than punches.
Dodging every single one effortlessly, Viggo observes him as he does a rotation, and his palm glows green before he lets out an attack, which gets sidestepped by Viggo. The attack results in a blast of pressurized air hitting nothing and causing a wind wave.
"Let me try that." Viggo emulates Bellion's stance and then immediately recreates the attack, which does hit Bellion with pressurized air, forcing him to spit out blood before sending him flying to crash against a wall.
The now unconscious Bellion fell to the ground with blood dripping from his mouth.
"... I might have hit him a little too hard..." Viggo mumbled to himself.
"Nishat! You did great! I knew you were the real deal! You even used the family technique after seeing it only once! You're a total steal!" The orange hair woman pounced on Viggo diving right into his arms with a warm smile and blush carrying a sweet but slightly sadistic satisfaction.
"... He's amazing! I don't think I would have been able to defend from that one at all myself." Maverick was surprised and nodded at Viggo in acknowledgment.
"She has a good eye, she saw through his talent as soon as he got here... Well, I guess that's expected from someone like her. She's always causing miracles." The blond young woman had an awkward smile as she wasted her older sister getting all mellow with Viggo.
While that was happening the purple-haired young woman got her unconscious bother and took him to the medical room.
Right after, Chimena comes in with two tablets in her hand and gave them to the blond young woman before storming out of the room to go take care of Bellion.
"Hey! The tablets are here, I want to know how strong your cultivation is, I'm sure you're at least Qi condensation and maybe a few layers into body cultivation..." The blond young lady wondered to herself.
All the others came to her and she then gave one of the tablets to Viggo, as he proceeded to put his Qi in it.
Soon a projection stating '10th layer of the Qi application realm', causing the Juartiny to widen their eyes, as they did not expect him to be this low, did this mean that he was at his strongest in body cultivation? That was something basically unseen as body cultivators were rare, much less a cultivator that has the means to cultivate both and has Chi at a higher level. Was that even possible?!
Without saying a word the blond young woman received the tablet back from Viggo, before handing him the other one.
Clenching his hand with the tablet in it, Viggo input his Chi and the projection of it stated '10th layer of the Body Initiation Realm', which even more so then before shocked everyone. If he was only at this level, how did he beat Bellion? Of course this was mostly due to their lack of familiarity with the prospect of cultivating both body and mind. Though the fact that Viggo had a perfect foundation also contributed by a large margin.
"Handsome, you're too good to pass on. How about letting me take you out for dinner later? I promise I'll take good care of you." The smile on the Orange haired young woman's face radiated joy.
"I don't mean to meddle or anything, but aren't you skipping a few steps here?" The blond young woman pointed out.
"Sweetie, out there it's shoot your shots or miss on opportunities. I'll do whatever I feel suits me, who'll stop me anyway?" She responded while smiling at the blondie.
"Just let her do whatever, it's not like anything will happen." Maverick shrugged off.
"Anyway, what do you say? Are you up for it champ?" The orange hair young woman asked again.
"Well, how could I reject such a beauty? Much less when she's my boss's daughter?" Viggo answered with an innocent smile.
"I would bite you right now for that, if you weren't so adorable, I didn't know handsome men could be this cute." The orange hair young woman replied with a smile that also carried a 'say that again, I dare you' kind of aura, to which Viggo only smiled brighter.
"If he keeps doing this I might not have the internal strength to call him out later, it's like looking at a dog who's too much of a good boy to be scolded... " She murmured to herself blushing after seeing Viggo's absolutely innocent smile.
"Huh? Did you say something?" Viggo who could hear her feint cluelessness with his innocent cute boy expression was basically a chibi face or at least that's how it looked to people.
This gave the orange-haired woman a nosebleed as she almost couldn't contain her excitement at how perfect, Viggo was slowly turning out to be for her. Though she immediately recomposed herself and put on a straight face.
"Anyway, here's my number. Now give me yours, I'll call you later." Just like that, they exchanged numbers.
Over with all that, Viggo had to spend the rest of his time going around with Maverick.
