Chapter 40: 39. Channeling My Hidden Powers

A week passed and nothing was happening. Everett was getting more and more antsy as the days went on. Everyone was doing intense training. Shi Ai, Shaoqing and Yanjun had escaped to Jay's because Sora came home. Seiji and Xiaosi spent long days out in the field, from early morning to late at night. Anytime they went out to train, Yongliang escaped to train with Everett, telling his mom he was practicing deep in the woods.

Seiji and Xiaosi were spending another day training together. The sun was beating down on them, and Xiaosi dropped to the ground. He was panting slightly, trying to catch his breath from the intense work out. Seiji sheathed his sword, grabbing a water and handing it to him before joining him. Xiaosi thanked him softly, taking the water and opening it.
