5 Graduation (2/2)

He formed his hands into claws and maintained his boost spell, instead of running away, Fei Lei placed his back against the edge of the hillside path, throwing himself into the challenge he roared back at the beast.

The Tiger monster leaned back on its hind legs and began swiping its claws at him, Fei Lei leaned aside and felt the sting of its claw gouge through the side of his waist, he then raised his claw-fingers when he suddenly felt a familiar energy surround his hands.

A transparent almost vapor-like claw formed around his hand as he raised it up cutting out a piece of creatures face. Fei Lei realized that this was the same telekinetic power he unlocked when he lost his friend Aluna.

The beast cried out as blood soared across its eye, it swung wildly and managed to slap Fei Lei into the ground, his body slid back towards the ledge when the beast pinned him down and went for his neck.

Fei Lei then filled the creature's mouth up with telekinetic energy as he grabbed on to the fur around its neck and placed his feet into tiger beast's stomach.

Lifting with all of his might Fei Lei pulled the monster back sending himself and creature tumbling down a cliff. He stayed on top of the creature as it's back slammed into the nearby slope sending them bouncing through the air.

As he fell, Fei Lei spotted his staff and pulled it over with his telekinesis, he grabbed the creature with a bear hug and squeezed as he started to control their descent, he then positioned the steel rod underneath tiger's back, next he formed a thin spearhead at the tip of the pole as he stabbed at the creature's heart.

The Spear began to bend, as only a small amount of its flesh had been pierced, it clawed and snapped at Fei Lei cutting open several wounds on his back and shoulder, but Fei Lei persisted through the pain and stayed on top of the creature's chest.

As they hit the ground the pole opened a hole though the back of the tiger's body, and impaled its heart opening up a giant hole next to Fei Lei's face. A loud thud echoed throughout the terrain as he felt the bones in his arms crack. The force from the fall quickly traveled through the body of the beast, and into Fei Lei. As he felt his body sink into the tiger's stomach the air had escaped from his lungs as his ribs starting to fracture.

Fei Lei was losing consciousness, when he thought, ”I can't! If I do I die! Damn it I can't focus on the spell matrix! What am I going to do?”

Suddenly memories of the human anatomy began flooding his mind, his Sigil started to glow as a surge of dopamine flooded his brain, as a shot of adrenaline was sent straight to his heart.

Fei Lei cried out in pain as he forced himself to cast quick recovery, his bones reset themselves and slowly began to heal, just as Fei Lei was losing consciousness he fell down and saw a shadow appear in the distance.

Walking up to the unconscious boy was a young maiden looking to be four or five years older than Fei Lei appeared, the top of her head shortcut crimson red hair where her bangs got longer the closer they got to her pointed ears, a single long braided ponytail that hung just above her buttocks, at the end of her pony tail was a small red ribbon tying it off, the rest of her body was covered in a thick red cloak and fish scaled mask.

She looked over Fei Lei and smiled, ”What a cute kid. I'll tell you what, if you grow up to be a strong and handsome man like Teacher, then I'll marry you.” Picking him up the mysterious woman dropped him off back at Tetra's house and spoke with him for a short while before disappearing into a shadow.

Fei Lei woke up the next day to his master using several stinky medicines to cover his wounds, Fei Lei smiled and said, ”I did it!” before he passed out again.

After waking up fully healed he once again resumed his training, this time he was learning to use his Sigil to gain control over his body, and fine-tune his psionic ability 'Telekinetic Hands'

Seeing the progress Fei Lei made everyday filled Tetra with pride, he continued to coach Fei Lei to the best of his abilities, then one day he saw Fei Lei practicing martial arts that came from Earth. Surprised by the trainings and teachings, Tetra began to help him perfect these abilities and correct the mistakes in his form.

Fei Lei continued to train with his master for 3 more years of additional training.

In this time, Fei Lei went through what he considered to be the training from hell, not a day went by that didn't almost cost him his life, not a single moment did his master grant him mercy, he was berated, shown no favor and crushed by his master's fist several times, but everything his Teacher did was for his own well being.

During the end of the sixth year, Tetra called Fei Lei into the dojo, Fei Lei had turned 16 recently and has grown into a strong well-built man. Though not the tallest person, he was 5'8 and was built like a championship bodybuilder.

His hair had grown so much that his braided hair now loomed over his bottom, and next to his braid was a massive 8-foot straight long rectangle-shaped greatsword that weighed around 200 pounds. The sword was strapped to his waist sticking out in a diagonal direction.

His Teacher looked him in the eye ”Today you leave on your warrior's pilgrimage, You have created 8 martial arts that I approve of; Muay Thai, Capoeira, Sambo, Drunken Fighting, Pencak Silat, Jeet Kune Do, Bo Jutsu, and Ken Jutsu. You must always challenge yourself through your own self-training, do not grow contempt and lastly, take my advice when I say this. You must make friends, you must not seek strength on your own if you want to accomplish your goals. Search well when looking for a Guild to join and find a guild master who you can one day entrust your burdens to; but most of all, be happy.”

Fei Lei bowed, slamming his head onto the floor mats before saying, ”You taught me much and I promise one day I'll return.”
