After seeing my grandpa's skill in martial arts I trained for weeks on end. I had to first finish cultivating the pulsing wave technique which sent waves from my hands and feet into my opponets and had 4 levels. 20 days since I received the technique I broke through 3 levels. By now I break a wooden dummy after 2 punches.
I took a break from practicing the pulsing waves and focused more on cultivation. I broke through the barrier and reached the soldier tier, sure enough I was easily able to pass through the final level of pulsing waves right after that.
Finally the month was over and I showed Grandfather my accomplishments in the technique he gave to me.
"Wow Kuto, very impressive. Not only did you reach the max level of pulsing waves, but you also got through the barrier of soldier. It will be harder to tier up in your cultivation from now on though so you better focus." He said
"Of course gramps," I exclaimed, "My goal is to be the strongest in the world after all."
"Here is a new technique, it is called decimation of the 2 moons. It will double your strength, oh there something else too." He walked around the room searching for something finally he picked a thin booklet on the ground, "Aha, there it is. This is a meditation skill that helps with your meditation. It's called the High Heaven refining technique. You can try it out if you want but so far nobody in our family has been able to learn it."
"Really? I heard from mom that meditation techniques were really special and that they cost a lot of money!"
"Yeah, they do but it's fine since no one is going to use it anyway." He put on a suspicious face. I could tell something bad was coming up. "By the way, your mom and I decided to send you to school in the capital."
"Thanks very mu- Wait WHAT?!?!?!"
