Fleur earned this level after completing a task. A task of fighting a wooden figurine turned into a low level Demon form. She struggled in the first level itself since she had never practiced before. She used falchion for the first time and it was heavier than she expected it to be. She was put inside a fake scenario and asked to fight. Her hands and shoulders her hurt but the way Shiyun treated her made her win the dual.

Fleur was trained without showing mercy the first two days by Shiyun, according to the instructions from Shifu Bo Hai. Shiyun did not address her the way she should be addressed as the Princess of Demon Realm. 'What the hell is wrong with him? How dare he disrespect me?' she thought everytime he shouted her name. "Fleyr get back to training now," like a mad dog would bark. But Fleur had no choice. Her father and mother did not come around much but kept watching her and she could feel it.

"Keep your concentration on the person, look into his eyes while you fight a d predict his next move. But in order to predict the next move you have to learn about all the skills and techniques, have a basic knowledge about them," Shiyun said to her.

When the night fell, Shiyun stopped giving her training. Fluer was tired. If she lived on Human Realm, her age would be around a 16 year old stubborn teenager causing trouble and choosing wrong paths.

"Okay, bye," Fleur said and got up.

"Where are you going?" Shiyun asked her.

"How old are you?" she asked Shiyun.

"Older than you,"

"Oh I did not know that, I thought you were a baby," Fleur rolled her eyes.

"Fleur,"

"oh shut up,"

"I'm tired bye," she said and began to walk. He apparated, appeared in front of her, blocking her and dragged.

"Let me go, where are you taking me?" she kept shouting and irritating him. But she found that they are in the steps of Castle's library. "Why are we here? I hate this place," she lied and turned around.

"hmm walk in m," he pushed her with his finger. She had no choice but went inside. The librarian was about to leave after his work.

"My lady," the librarian bowed and showed his respect.

"Get to work," Shiyun said to her.

"What work?" Fleur asked.

"Learn about the cultivation you learned today,"

"Fire ambush?"

"Yes," Shiyun said firmly.

"BORING," She cried. "I'm tired.

"Do you know something?" Shiyun asked her.

"What?" Fleur asked back but he changed his mind. He did not wish to scare her.

"Nothing, the sooner you achieve my target the better for you and I will leave," he promised her and smiled. He looked at her for a moment. 'She is a good girl, she is a mystery, she is hiding many things,' he thought watching her leave and taking the books required form various shelves in the library. It proved that she is regualr visitor and knows her way ber well. But he could not understand her. He could not understand why she would reject her training and not care about being a Celestial Dragon. He took a deep breath and wished he could rest for sometime too.

Fleur's knowledge level could not be compared to any people her age. But she did not reveal it to anyone. She picked the right books she had seen before and refused to read. She took the books that had details of Fire Ambush. She decided to give it a read since she will be sitting with Shiyun with no choice.

She read them, she went through every single word recorded, and pictures drawn regarding the movements and tried to remember and recall. She had learned only a little. 98 levels were left for her to learn. At each 10th level a new power unlocks in the meridian according to the skill. And it also stated how it will positively increase the attack power of the weapon she would choose. But her shifu Shiyun according to his shifu Bo Hai intended to teach her use all the weapons. From sword, falchion, to spear, daggers, and knives.

"One should be well equipped with any sets but excel in one, and never reveal it to the world," Fleur recalled Shiyun's words. She saw how tired but composed he looked in his white hanfu. He was reading through the books she finished and handed over so that he can explain it to her when she makes mistakes.

"Shiyun," she called. "I mean shifu, so you are my shifu," she said.

"Yes," he said.

"Okay Shifu, tell me if I'm right, you know I cannot escape right,"

"Escape what?" Shiyun asked without taking his eyes off the books. Fleur smirked.
