Chapter 63: Talent (part 2)

It has been a week since the festival. When we got back, nothing much happened., they scolded us for sure, but there was no further punishment.

"Again, your body is too stiff."

"Ugh, maybe the sword isn't the right weapon for me," Xu'er complained as she threw her sword down.

"Be patient, Xu'er. It's only been a week since you've started training." I said. I bent down and picked up the sword that Xu'er threw.

"Father said that we only have a month to prepare!" 

I went over to her and handed her the sword. She grumbled as she started practicing again.

"Remember, relax your body, keep your breathing steady. And don't lose your focus."

The sword style I taught her is the same one I use. I don't know the name, but it has multiple uses. The first form emphasizes acrobatics and being agile. I guess I made it to not get caught easily while attacking and moving at the same time.
