Chapter 1: Master Xi's Basics

General Summary

The Kid was subjected to work intended to build his body into a formidable fighter with age. Yet a child is ill suited for matters of concentration, making the act of meditation a difficult endeavor.
The other children around him seemed to take matters much more seriously, seemingly lacking the need for fun in their routine. All citizens of Eteras Medius train for combat, it is their common cultural element. Yet in Teichi, the warriors train to seek the recognition of a guardian spirit that lives within the forest. it is said only the worthy may visit its temple.
While the Kid would get most of his kicks in town, he would return to the temple to train, time and again, until he would master the basics demanded of him. After meditation came the act of punching, and from punching one would learn to channel aether. No less than perfection was required of the execution of the punch prior to utilizing the enhanced impact techniques that Medians often employ in battle.
To channel aether: mind, body and soul need to devote themselves to a single task in unison. For this purpose do these children labor every day, to meld their being into a collective conscious of one. With consistent training, the Kid would effectively wield the aether as a weapon, forgoing his knuckles in favor of the indirect striking techniques.
In time, the Kid would be called Luanshi for his tendency to learn skills through repeated attempts. Perhaps a name applied to more students in the past, were any of his age around. And with age came the time to cultivate the experience he has had over the years into knowledge he could apply to his continued training. Cultivation is a process most easily undertaken in groups, though performing it by oneself is also an option when lacking a willing crowd.
By utilizing the cultivated experience, Luanshi was able to learn his first new Flying Skill, the Spider Wheel technique, allowing him to run up walls as if it was a horizontal surface. Taken by the new means of traversal, he furthered his training to learn Armadillo Roll, Tiger Dash, Gecko Sprint and Fox Stride to get around Teichi.
