After taking a bath, Ling Ai wore a ninja suit like the rest of the a.s.sa.s.sins of the Full Moon Clan."This is quite comfortable and easy to move with because it"s light and it is enhanced with chi. I do hope I had brought with me my Xenohorn sword, it does complement it with this suit. But I believe my friends must have kept it with them; Liu Qiang, Li Bei, Wong Yong, and Wong Wei. I missed those guys already."
Ling Ai muttered while she was walking down the spiral stairs of the tall tree. She was fully prepared for her training in the Full Moon Clan.
On her way down, people from other treehouses looked at Ling Ai in awe and some looked at her with hate and envy. Because no one had ever done an impossible achievement being able to defeat one of the dragon swords while Ling Ai singlehandedly defeat all of the eight dragon swords at one go, they are also known as the elite warriors of the Full Moon Clan.
At the entrance of the stairs was White Mustache with six masked men in black robe waiting for Ling Ai, these warriors were ranked below the dragon swords. "This way young lady Ling Ai." Even the White Mustache treats Ling Ai with utmost respect after she had proven herself to be quite powerful.
"Thank you White Mustache. Now, what is this all about? If you"re helping me train, then you must be aware yourself that what you are about to teach me must be something new and of high-level cultivation. Or else, there would be no purpose for me staying and joining this training session."
"You"ll know when we get there." White Mustache just smiled at Ling Ai beside him.
"There? You mean the elevated area with jade tiles?" Ling Ai raised her brow looking up to him as the White Mustache was a tall thin person.
"Yes, your eyes are indeed good. Ho ho"
The Full Moon Clan treats their guests with care and respect. But Ling Ai"s situation seems to differ because it was reasonably unexpected and she was in a stranger"s place, to begin with. Even though the treatment for a guest escalated quickly that it turned rough and caused an eye-catching event of battle, more people respects Ling Ai with awe than the people that envied and hated her. As they were also aware that the legendary White Mustache himself acknowledges Ling Ai.
"We"re here, Ling Ai"er." White Mustache and Ling Ai got on the elevated jaded platform while the eight dragon swords stopped what they were doing and bowed their heads down after seeing White Mustache.
"It"s a good day seeing you, lord White Mustache." They all greeted the White Mustache at the same time in a snappy manner.
The eight dragon swords still wore white dragon masks. Ling Ai hadn"t taken the chance to look at their faces while they were still unconscious as she was completely uninterested.
"Why did you only greet me? Aren"t you seeing this beautiful young guest we have?" White Mustache said with a stern face.
"It"s a good day for you to grace us with your presence, young lady Ling Ai." The eight dragon swords faced Ling Ai and bowed their heads as they greeted her simultaneously.
"Okay, now, dragon swords what is our training session for today all about?" White Mustache asked without calling anyone specifically.
"Dimensional state my lord." One of the dragon swords answered.
"Good, what are the things you need to be able to enter the Martial arts Dimensional state?"
"Mastery of the Yin and Yang balancing." Another dragon sword answered.
Ling Ai was also sitting on the jade tiles with the dragons swords listening to White Mustache teaching.
"Mastery of YinYang? What does that mean...?" Ling Ai wondered what they were talking about but she stayed silent and waited for the lecture to be finished first.
"Now, how can one master the Yin and Yang balancing?" White Mustache asked.

"To never be evil but to master shadow arts." One of the dragon swords replied.
"Yes! But remember, that is not the only way to master the Yin and Yang balancing. We just used the most efficient and effective way for us to understand YinYang chi because we are a shadow village, it"s within our advantage to use this method.
We are created to serve justice, to seek the light though our skills are very deadly that it is considered poisonous to many. Raven country is considered to be part of the Yin region of the Floresia continent because most of the shadow arts lie on these parts. I"m now teaching you these things again as Ling Ai is already part of this team. You shall help enlighten her what she doesn"t know."
One of the dragon swords removed his mask as he was furious and find it unacceptable about Ling Ai joining them.
"Forgive me for my rudeness my lord White Mustache but I think I won"t agree to that matter nor accept her as part of our team. When one is part of a team, one must supposed to be part of the Clan. But who is this stranger? She just arrived recently and now she"s already part of us?
How unfair could that be for us, the eight dragon swords? We trained for years to achieve what we have become, and for all those years I"ve obeyed. It shall be my first time to deny what you ask of us, lord White Mustache." The young man that removed his dragon mask stood up and chi was released from his body.
"Han Liang! What is this all about. You are being unreasonable! Didn"t you quite understand how powerful she is? Be it, stranger or not but if she"s an ally of the light then she"ll be a big help of our clan and of fighting the darkness in this world. Every strong member counts! As the world is in deep darkness and evil is spreading at every corner of the world in a very terrible speed." White Mustache reprimanded Han Liang who stood up in the dragon swords formation.
"If you can"t trust us completely to defend the light against the evil forces, then why are we even here? Why did you even create the eight dragon swords? Max cultivation..." Han Liang had broad shoulders and shredded build with braided red hair. He was the brute warrior of the eight dragon swords but his strength was indeed reckonable.
"Zheng Xie, is this appropriate... what do you think?" A dragon sword young woman whispered to Zheng Xie the intelligence specialist of the group.
"Let him be if that"s what he wants." Zheng Xie replied.
"Let"s check it, right here and right now. I"ll back him up the moment I see an opening. Han Liang is being reasonable, we"ve spent years for us to be qualified in taking up the eight dragon swords position. And that number has been pa.s.sed down by our ancestors, generations after generations. That"s why I"ll back Han Liang on this." One of the strongest dragon swords that also had exchange words with Ling Ai from the night they fought was preparing himself to back up Han Liang.
"Are you serious about this, Jian Qing?! I"ll back you up too if worst comes to worst." Zheng Xie replied and changed his mind as his best friend Jian Qing agreed to Han Liang"s opinion.
"Then I, Fan Liu, the only woman of the dragon swords shall provide support for my fellow top 3 strongest of the dragon swords." The only woman of the dragon swords is determined to support the critical attack Han Liang was preparing. And to have backup support by Zheng Xie, Jian Qing, and Fan Liu the top 3 strongest and highest cultivation of the eight dragon swords.
"Stop this ignorance! Aren"t you people being pitiful? We are on the same side so what are you doing now? Expressing your rage because of pride?! I"ve trained you for years to remove those but yet look at you know, looking this young lady with contempt. If you continue to disrespect her, then I shall be your opponent." White Mustache waved his right hand to cover Ling Ai that stood up and left the formation as she felt pressure coming from the dragon swords sitting with her.
"No need to do that, White Mustache. Or rather, Master White Mustache. I completely understand what they are feeling, it"s not really a matter of pride but it"s a matter of being deserving. And they don"t find me as one, so for that. I"ll give it to them, the chance for them to realize it themselves. Eight dragon swords, I"ll give each one of you a chance to have a duel with me without using my Heavenly arts, so no need to gang up on me and plan an ambush attack as far as I can discern what"s your faces had been showing.
But first I have two rules; Firstly, all of you must remove your mask as a sign of respect to the one who you"ll be dueling with. Secondly, you must fight with everything you"ve got or else you"ll get squashed and humiliated. Was that rule clear enough for you? Of course no need to really say the third rule, but if you guys want to hear it, then I"ll say it. Thirdly, it must be a one on one fight." Ling Ai stepped 10 yards back to prepare herself eight duels in a row.
"Not bad handling such unkindly behavior, you"re a great leader yourself Ling Ai"er. Now, you can ask me anything if you manage to win your duel with the eight dragon swords. Anything, what is it?" White Mustache is beside Ling Ai listening to her closely.
"A strong Martial arts skill for a warriors talent. That would be a really great help for me." Ling Ai hadn"t thought about it twice and requested right away what she wanted to have if she won the eight duel. Because it"s been a while that she"s desiring to have a Warrior talent skill for her beautiful Xenohorn sword which she treasures deeply, ironically she left it at the dojo.
