Ascendant: Struggle

Zai, a soldier, and her squad live a life of brutal hit-and-run operations and training the people of Aviye to resist the will of the Hegemons that divided her nation. When a beautiful defector falls into her lap, the terrible secret of how the Hegemony creates its Ascendants, powerful warriors wielding powers only a few understand, is revealed, as well as a lost path to the same power. As Zai and Amri struggle to understand the truth of the path, deadly enemies and even divisions within their own people must be overcome. Yet in the shadows of the Hegemony lurks an enemy far older and more powerful than even they can imagine. -------- I invite you to consider my other works if you are interested: https://www.webnovel.com/book/the-demon-lord-is-an-angel_28486713700592205#review I also have a Discord if you want to communicate with me directly: https://discord.gg/ksJ8dJup4d Special thanks to SapphoAndHerFriend for her support and help with the cover.

Rui

The seventh round began with Rui nearly backed into a corner.

Since she'd stopped using her arms, Rui had made herself a smaller target, but being the only target, that wasn't saying much.

Her entire plan, and by now she was confident enough to call it a plan, relied on the Ascendant of Wind continuing to play cautious as Rui gathered and readied as much qi as she could get into her legs. It also relied on pissing her off.

It was times like this she wished she had more skill emitting qi at range like Finn. Even if she wasn't good at managing qi outside her body, she found the best way to keep at it was through small, precise bursts of speed. She relied on her perceptual core to guide herself around, especially when the Wind came at her back, since dodging was basically all she could do for now.
