Chapter 6 - Are swords too generic?

As the twins were lamenting their cultivation, they were interrupted by a servant.

"Young master, Young mistress, it's time for training"

Right today they start on training, Lin Yun has been looking forward to this. Think about it isn't flying on swords and stuff really awesome?

They hurried to the training grounds, a massive courtyard inside their massive mansion. Standing there waiting for them was their teacher, a young man seemingly in his mid 20s. He had dark green hair and light blue eyes. His name is Zhao Qingyue, one of their parent's childhood friends, appearances can be deceiving because he's actually around 80 years old like our parents.

They were really surprised when they found out their parent's age. This really is Xianxia alright.

"Teacher! We're here" They shouted simultaneously

Teacher Zhao turned around and gave us a gentle smile. It was very terrifying with the dark aura around him. You wouldn't expect it but this gentle looking scholarly man is a demon. Father calls him an uncouth barbarian.

"Lin Yun, Lin Yue, you two are ten minutes late."

We immediately bowed "WE'RE EXTREMELY SORRY TEACHER!"

Please don't give us extra punishment we don't want to die today.

Thankfully Teacher Zhao just sighed "I'll let you off this time but be warned, there will be no next time. Understood?"

We hurriedly nodded

"As you both know we're starting your weapons training today. Go pick a weapon, we're just testing them out today so don't be pressured to find the one you'll use for the rest of your cultivation journey"

There were several wooden weapons lined up in the courtyard, from normal ones like swords and spears to more exotic ones like chakrams and whips.

Feeling like an generic anime protagonist Lin Yun walked up and picked up a sword. Lin Yue on the other hesitated. Should she pick a sword like her brother so they could train faster or pick another weapon for more versatility. In the end she decided to pick a spear.

With their chosen weapons in hand they returned to Teacher Zhao who raised an eyebrow at them.

"A sword and a spear huh? I expected you two to pick more exotic weapons like your parents."

They were confused " our parents?" Asked Lin Yue

Teacher Zhao nodded " yes I took basic training with them and a few others. Instead of choosing normal weapons your mother refused because she wanted to punch things while your father pulled out acupuncture needles out of who knows where and claimed those as his weapon."

Teacher Zhao had a look of long suffering on his face. You've sure endured a lot Teacher Zhao. The more He hear about our parents the he realizes that perhaps their parents aren't the most normal or sane people in the world. In fact Teacher Zhao Isn't very normal either, he's the only who's even a wee bit suspicious about the fact that they're actually the same person. He was suspicious on our first meeting too it gave them so much anxiety.

Ah just thinking of that first meeting is giving them so many PTSD flashbacks-
