Akira gestured upward, pointing her finger at one of the clouds above and continued with a tone that carried both authority and casual confidence. "I decided against using a floating platform because I doubt it would be able to withstand the entire training and lesson."The four companions followed her gesture, tilting their heads to stare at the peaceful-looking floating surface drifting overhead—particularly one with no building."Really? Why?" Leo asked this time, his voice carrying genuine curiosity. They had been on one of those earlier and he knew firsthand how sturdy they were. They could withstand many such bursts of energy without even showing the slightest sign of flicker in their suspension in the air. The idea that their training could somehow damage a floating platform made him wonder."It's pretty obvious," Akira responded with a shrug that was like she was gesturing the answer should have been clear without explanation before continuing. "You guys will all have to fight

"Come with me," Akira signaled to them as she began to walk towards the edge of the platform."You see, in the Red Eastern Guild, everything is arranged in a pattern and an appropriate procedure," she explained, her voice reaching all of them clearly despite the wind that had begun to blow around them."In order to be able to learn a new stage of the teachings here, you must have mastered the old stage," Akira continued, pausing to let the wind whip through her long black hair.The four companions exchanged glances, and Brok couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Why does everything in this guild have to be so... delayed? Can't we just skip to the good stuff?"Mara elbowed him sharply in the ribs—well, as sharply as she could despite thinking the same thing. "Because that's not how learning works, you impatient bull," she hissed. "You can't build a house without laying the foundation first.""To be frank," Akira said, either not hearing their whispered exchange or choosing to ign

"Hell nahhhh!" Mara screamed from her cloud, her voice cracking with a mixture of disbelief and fury.Her sympathetic concern for Brok moments ago had instantaneously transformed into anger."Son of a—" she started to continue her comment, but it was suddenly cut off by the arrival of the wind current they had all been dreading.*Dzzzzzzzzzzzzz*The electrical storm finally reached Brok with no obstruction whatsoever, delivering unto him what could only be described as the shock of his lifetime. The crackling energy engulfed his still-kneeling form like a cocoon."Arrrrrggggghhh!!!!" Brok screamed at the absolute top of his lungs, his voice echoing across the vicinity with such intensity that it seemed to make the very air vibrate.However, instead of receiving the concerned support and worried encouragement he might have expected from his companions who had been having high hopes for him just moments before, he was struck with another wave of humiliation."Yes! Shock him to death! We

Ryder, Brok, and Leo all had their jaws wide agape as they stared at Mara on her cloud, standing on it with gamma energy crackling all over her, eyes reflecting like lightning storms contained within emerald crystals. Everyone had questions to ask, but their mouths remained wide open, unable to utter anything. The silence stretched between them, getting longer and longer, broken only by the occasional crackle of residual energy still dancing around Mara. The puzzled expression on their faces was astronomical, but Brok's in particular was absolutely comical. Still frozen in his doggy stance, he tilted his head at an impossible angle to stare at Mara, who had just ascended to her cloud. His jaw was practically touching the scorching ground, creating a perfect triangle of bewilderment, and his eyes were as wide as plates. Being the only one left on the bare ground now, still unable to stand up, was embarrassing enough to make him want to dig a hole and disappear forever. But screw th

'If I don't somehow figure out a way to blend in and adapt to this environment, then I won't be able to learn any technique.' Mara's thoughts occupied her mind as she remained on the scorching training ground that was said to be their residence, her palms pressing against the sun-baked surface, reddened up to her elbows. The oppressive atmosphere of the Tian district continued to press down on her with constant force, giving her another set of torture. The shocking wind Akira Tian spoke about was yet to come—one can only imagine how much worse it would make things. 'Master Sung already has low hopes for us. Proving to be worthy isn't something we should have to do every time—for once, let us prove our worth.' Mara exhaled from her mouth so thick that it came out like a cloud of vapor. From the outside, she appeared as someone who is simply in a crawling position, but on the inside she was trying her best. Her emerald eyes, usually bright and full of life, had dulled into grey. S

"I'll be taking you to your residence as well as giving you your training regimen now," Akira announced as she walked through the door of the hut, her voice carrying seriousness.The others hurriedly followed behind. Actually, hurriedly was not a very accurate word, given Brok and Mara's current mode of locomotion. Still unable to walk upright under the crushing atmospheric pressure, they crawled as fast as they could behind her, their dignity having been abandoned ever since they stepped into the Tian district."Hang in there, you two," Leo spoke in an encouraging tone towards the human puppies on the floor. "Everyone starts somewhere. Even I had to crawl before I could walk, literally speaking."The puppies bit their lips, not responding.The garden outside the hut was as beautiful as ever despite that it was nighttime. The flowers in the garden seemed to glow with their own inner light like they were imbued with magic, and the trees that surrounded the landscape swayed without an
