6 months have passed...
James was sitting outside the small hut, near in the black forest...
even though the black forest is so vast, there is no wild beast tried to come up and tear down their resting house...
crackk... James hears a cracking sound, I've been looking for you son,
Your Grandpa wants to talk to you...
----++---
Main Hall
James, you're aware that your cousins did not open their Bloodline Power.
Yes, Grandpa,
I will also be sending you to fight for this coming Clan Gathering, beside you there's no young generation I can trust, to at least get into the top ten...
you had 3 months to train, here is my insignia, go to the depository and take 3 techniques...
don't let our Long Family, down to shame...
even James is too young, his only 11 years old, but he knows what is his responsibilities in his family.
The problem is James is only at { Preliminary Stage } he still needs to break 3 levels to become a Warrior Stage...
most of the competitor is at { Warrior or even Elite Stage }.
James went to depository and search a most suitable technique for him,
The first he chose is the Dragon Punch,
it is the popular technique amongst the Long Family,
it has 3 moves, One is the [ Laughing Dragon Punch ]...
second,
[ Angry Dragon Fist ], and the third is [ Berserking Dragon Fist ].
second is for his defense
which is the [Steel Turtle Technique].
based on this technique name
James can summon a steel turtle shell to block his enemy attack.
and the last one is for his agility...
[ Shadow Steps ],
by learning this step you will be able to move swiftly, moving from one place to another and leaving the same image to trick your opponent.
James painstakingly Practicing his technique and nevertheless his trump card, the nullifying technique he got from the black dragon.
I'm at 9th level of { Preliminary Stage }
I just need to break on more, then I will become a { Warrior Stage}.
Son How's your training? Don't overdo yourself you have to give up if you think you can't win.. ok...?
it was Mark visited his son.
Yes... father, I will.."
alright there is still a month left for the gathering... here is a Breaking pill so that you can easily break through to a { Warrior Stage }
but don't rely on pills too much not only it can harm your body,
it can affect your power.. some people I know by relying on pills they able to break through to a { King Stage } however they were soo fragile and easy to trample.
you don't have have to worry father I will train my self and won't rely too much on pills...
Mark nodded and then he handed over the Pill... alright I need to go somewhere else I will be back on time of Clan Gathering...
days went by ten days left before the gathering...
at the small house.
almost there.... haaaaahhhhhhh...!!!!
creckk... James hears that the last hurdle has been broken, hahahaa, I am now a { Warrior Stage}. James check his Dantian and he can see a Vast Energy, so the Warrior Stage can store triple the amount of Energy than Preliminary Stage.
Alright, time to consolidate my Technique,
he punched the big boulder of rock in front of him with his arm is on Flame.
BURNING FIST...! hah!! Boom!
it leaves a hole in the big rock,
James suddenly changes into a carefree person, you can see his face is smiling.
LAUGHING DRAGON FIST! boom!!!the punch Power almost pierce the rock,
still, not enough I need to get stronger.
Then his face becomes angry...
ANGRY DRAGON, boom.... !!
then the punching power pierces into the rock.
so far Laughing and Angry Dragon are the only I've to comprehend, no time to waste I've only got ten days left.
Then James sat down in a lotus position to study the last Fist...
Hahaha, success!
tomorrow would be the start of Clans Gathering.

Main Hall.
Mark, how's your son's training?
did he comprehend the second Fist of Dragon Punch manual?
I do apologize, father, I just came in from my mission, and not able to supervise him...
sigh... it's ok, but learning the Dragon Punch is very tricky..hays.
although Robert did open his Bloodline Power and already step in Warrior Stage. I can feel his aura is nothing compared to James, I will not send Mason cause he failed to open his Bloodline Power... I will choose Reynold instead that kid is also a promising one,
-----++
Boom!! the rock exploded due to James punch...
hahahahaha I did it, I've learned the BERSERKING FIST.. you will notice a fiery fire on James' hand...
James returns to a small house, he always stays in here cause it's more peaceful and he can train on his content due to large space...
creckk, James opens the door, he found that his father is setting and sipping herbal tea.
well done my son.. then he put down the tea, let's go home your Mom is worrying with you, it's almost 3 months yet you did not let your mother know that you're okay... Son, I know that you wanted to become a strong Martial Artist, but what's the point of your strength?
if you're alone walking on this road.
I'm telling you not to practice, but you to balance your self, you still have a family that worries for you.
I do apologize dad,
Don't apologize to me, go to your mom.
ahh... could you please accompany me?
hahahaha.. son, even I, Can't calm your mother when she's angry. it's your fault so bear with it... hehe
-----+++
James walkout from their house, rubbing his butt... " mom! I need to go somewhere I'll be back before dinner.." ( aw aw aw, that's really hurt, mom is really angry, guess I won't have to do it again.
when James went outside he did not notice his mom and dad is staring at him his mom leaning on his father shoulder.. while his father is comforting her by rubbing her head,
Our son is only 11 years old yet he... ( stop), I'm afraid that, there something might bad happen to him..sob.
we know what's the danger could happen if he can't depend on himself.
he's a man and he won't tolerate relying on his family, it will also prepare him, Just in case, they found out, where we hiding.
nothing to worry dear, as long I sealed my aura they won't be able to detect me.
