"Hey! Keep it up," Feixiao commanded sharply, her sword slicing through the air as she landed another hit, fully expecting you to either block or evade the attack.

Well, you managed to parry the blow, but... with difficulty. It took every ounce of your strength and concentration. Feixiao's reputation as the "Great General" wasn't just for her strategic brilliance but also for her relentless tenacity and unwavering determination.

You were unsure how many hours had passed since the two of you started training, but the fatigue undoubtedly set in. And it was not long before your legs gave out, and you sank to the ground, struggling to catch your breath.

The foxian sighed as she approached you. Planting her hands firmly on her hips, she stood over you with a somewhat determined expression. "I am merely trying to help you," Feixiao reassured you. "If you wish to become a Cloud Knight, you must work as hard as possible. You have to push yourself beyond your limits. Understand?"

Her words, though harsh, were meant to motivate you. And with that, she reached out her hand to help you stand up.
