After all this we also need Feedback and Adjustment according to it." Said Shivarjuna.

After hearing this Feng Xuan who was exited became frighten. He had known that archery is not easy but just basis consist 9 level which is out of scope for him.

"Teacher, Is there no easy way to learnt it?" asked Feng Xuan.

"No, Basis needed to perfect and without determination and hard work you cannot achieve anything. If you can't even do this than just don't practice you can just became mediocre and earn money to live basic life with agriculture, with your 20th century knowledge you can earn more than you needed." Said Shivarjuna.

"No teacher, I don't want to become mediocre. I will work Hard in everything you teach and became best Archer in this world." Said Feng Xuan with deamination.

 "You don't needed to become best, you just needed to master every knowledge I provide. Becoming best will not good. It encourage your ego. Your only competition is your past self. Never compare yourself to others. "Sivarjuna corrected Feng Xuan's word.

He knows because of his brother's competitiveness with him he choose path of Duryodhana and fight against him in Mahabharata war and ended up being killed by himself. So he wanted his discipline to learn about mastering not becoming best.

"If you became master eventually will became best. Becoming best is not path it's just by product of your determination and practice to mastering knowledge." Said Shivarjuna.

"Yes Teacher, I will do as you say and master knowledge. My aim should be mastering knowledge not to becoming best. Thank you for providing me path otherwise I will be forgotten the basis thing." Said Feng Xuan.

"Now let's start with Stance and Posture, it contains three part Foundation, Body Alignment, Weight Distribution.

The foundation of good archery is a solid, stable stance. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, perpendicular to the target.

Body Alignment is to ensure the body is aligned with the target. The archer's body should form a T-shape when the bow is drawn, with shoulders level and back straight.

Weight Distribution is to distribute weight evenly between both feet, with a slight bend in the knees for stability." Explained Shivarjuna.

"Now hold bow and I will correct your stance and posture."

Feng Xuan then lift bow and hold sting and pull it backword and position himself in simple bow wielding stance.

Shivarjuna then give him details guidance to improve his stance and correct his posture. He can use his physical energy foam by using yogic energy so he can touch Feng Xuan.

Feng Xuan practice Stance and posture in guidance of his teacher till night. He can now wielded bow in correct posture for hour.

Shivarjuna shocked by Feng Xuan's talent because just by practicing 6 hours he can wield bow in correct poster for one hour which is genius. He now understand why vijaya choose to became martial soul of Feng Xuan due to his overwhelming talent like his brother Karna.

"Xuan, now you can wield Bow in correct positon so you needed to practice this poster for at least one hour every day. Now you can go to eat and relax. I will guide you on other point tomorrow." Said Shivarjuana.

"Ok master, I will eat and sleep." Said Feng Xuan.

Feng Xuan then goes to his grandpa jack and eat dinner with him. After that he goes to sleep. Today was lengthy day due to practice so he was thinking of going to martial soul hall for Studies but now he has master so his path is fix and not needed to go to martial soul hall so tomorrow he will goes to Nuoding academy with Tang san.

He had also asked his grandpa Jack about it and he agree to take him and Tang san to Nuoding academy for spirit master. He had also inform Su Yuntao about Feng Xuan regarding admission of Feng Xuan to Nuoding Academy.

Early morning, Feng Xuan waked up early to practice Stance and posturing. He can now do perfect stance without needed Shivarjuna to correct it.

"Your posture is perfect. Now you needed to practice it daily to improve it. The second level for basis Archery contains Nocking the Arrow. Nocking the arrow is a crucial step in archery that involves placing the arrow onto the bowstring in preparation for shooting. Properly nocking the arrow ensures a consistent shot and helps maintain accuracy." Explain Shivarjuna.

"It contains four steps.

Step 1: Position the Bow

Step 2: Grasp the Arrow

Step 3: Place the Arrow on the Rest

Step 4: Attach the Nock to the Bowstring.

Now lift your bow and place arrow I will correct you regarding this step." Shivarjuna further added.

Feng Xuan lift bow and take arrow put it in bow and held back of arrow with string and pull it backword as previously practiced stance.

Shivarjuna observed Feng Xuan and tell "Always make sure the index feather is facing away from the bow to avoid contact with the bow and ensure a straight flight."

He corrected Feng Xuan which Feng Xuan adapted. After that Shivarjuna told him to Practice nocking the arrow repeatedly to develop muscle memory and ensure quick, accurate nocking under different conditions.

He also told "Once comfortable, practice nocking the arrow without looking directly at the bowstring to simulate real shooting scenarios where focus needs to remain on the target."

Feng Xuan done all that was being told and practice it till afternoon and then goes to house when he saw Tang san with Old Jack.

"Little Xuan, let's leave. It's time to go."

Old Jack called to Feng Xuan.

Just as they are ready to leave they heard loud voice from behind.

"Stop."
