Chapter 19 - A New Learning

"Akira! I can't believe it no one has ever gotten a mastery over two elements simultaneously, let's give this news to Master Yoshi", Ling said as she held Akira by her shoulders, Akira at the same time was not able to grasp the situation, soon both of them made way towards the dorm to meet Master Yoshi, *knock* *knock* "Sensei, this Ling, I need to show you something it's urgent", said Ling as she knocked on the dorm gates, *creak* "*yawn* hey Ling wassup? Master's in his cabin he was signing some paper work, heard that it was regarding an upcoming tournament, you might visit him after 5 mins", A man wearing a black robe and a shaolin inspired hat told Ling and went on his way back, both Ling and Akira waited until the guest left, and once the guest left Ling holding Akira's hand rushed towards Master's cabin, *slam* "Sensei! you got to see this, to think we would never see anyone having control over two elements", said Ling in a mix tone filled with excitement and surprise, "Great Supreme! Did anyone see this? Ling close the door and bring me the brown scroll kept at the top of the shelf, now!", said the Master, Ling did the things that Master told her and all three of them sat down, "Ahm..ahmm, so Akira care to tell me how only you got to have control over these two elements?", asked the Master, "Well to be honest with you sensei even I don't know, I just copied the moves that Ling showed me in order to see my elemental orb", answered Akira with a confused tone, "Yes sensei, before going on with the practice I noticed that Akira's chi was very faint or sometimes very unstable, that's why to confirm it I told her to follow my stance and copy it in order to see her elemental orbs", Ling said with a firm tone as she held Akira's hand and showed it the Master, Akira's arm was covered with a faint lining of black veins which indicates the prolonged use of the elements, Master explained to both of them that even though the humans had full control over their elements, certain conditions were meant to be met in order for its mastery, and due to Akira's familiarity and understanding with only the earth element she never knew about the conditions that were to be met for air and water, "It's best that the word of it doesn't reach out or else the other element leaders will barge in with their questionnaires, Ling I instruct you to teach her the basic of elemental handling before you start with practice please", Master advised Ling.

*Sigh* "After all this, all I get is to learn the basics while the others hone their elements, Ling why is me having two elements such a big talk?", Akira questioned Ling with a subtle irritating tone, "ahm.. see Akira for me it was after a long time I have seen some interest in my Master's eyes, know why? 5 years ago when I just joined this sect, I met her, the women who covered herself in white robe, had the scent of lotus, the eyes of a leopard and the face that was blessed by the moon, she too had control over two rare elements, I don't know which but it was said that during our annual tournament meet, when everything was going right, she got corrupted by the two elements and went rampage on everyone, it was said that the Masters of each element sects joined forces to bring her back to her senses but the elemental corruption was so strong it was almost impossible for them to beat her but then our master's first disciple went on and sacrificed himself in order to bring her back to her senses, after that she was imprisoned and all the master's had dispute at the grand monarch shrine meeting, and Master...", before Ling could continue she was interrupted by Takeshi, "Oye, where were you guys? Jii sensei has called us for something let's go", said Takeshi as he went back towards the group, and just as Ling went to follow him Akira held her hand, "Wait! Ling.. uhm.. what happened at the meeting? What was that women's name? And how do you know this?", a sudden rush of questions were laid by Akira to which Ling just gave her a faint smile," Some other time, now let's go", said Ling as she took Akira with her to the others.
