37.) Ju'Mosi's Lessons.

Clarence: "So here's how this will go. We'll be a two on two spar that'll last for five mins. During this time, if we see anything, we can help the others improve on, speak up, and help them out. We won't be able to speak up on everything seen. This is why we will be speaking after the spar and applying the advice. Is that cool with everyone else?"

Amera: "Fine over here."

Morpheus: "I'm coo with it."

Ju'Mosi: "It's fine. Let's get this thing started. But… I'll say this, we have absolute freedom in this spar. But you will NOT be allowed to hold back in these short five mins. We cool?!"

All Three: "Yes!"

Ju'Mosi: "Alright then…"

Clarence & Ju'Mosi: "BEGIN!!"

Ju'Mosi dashes off at full speed, heading straight for Morpheus. Morpheus readies himself and takes a small step forward with his right leg. Then, he presses out a palm strike to counter Ju'Mosi's lead left strike. The collision causes a massive shockwave that tears the ground asunder.

Ju'Mosi: "Precise timing for counters, as expected from you."

Morpheus: "Preciate it. Your strikes are quite sharp indeed, but you could learn to read the situation better."

Ju'Mosi: "Hmm?" *PRCH*

Amera: "Pay attention, Mosi!"

Clarence: "You could learn to -"

Morpheus: *Catch* "Oh, trust me, she was."

Clarence: "Hrrmmm!"

Ju'Mosi found himself having to recover from that gut check from Amera. Clarence was trapped by Morpheus' grip on his fist. Amera charges in for a huge elbow to Clarence's ribcage but is quickly intercepted by an elbow thrown from Ju'Mosi. 

Amera: "Ngh! (Where did this bastard come from so suddenly!)"

Amera manages to use an 'X' guard to defend herself and is pushed back a few meters. Amera proceeded to enter a new stance with her left arm extended out and slightly arched in prep for defense. Her right arm was bent and placed in front of her while her fist was balled up. Her back was slightly bent, and her legs spread far apart. Her left leg was extended forward while her right was bent. Ju'Mosi stood in the same stance. A quick moment blew by, and the both of them vanished as they rushed forward. Meeting head-on with even force, the two create a shockwave with their clash of fists that blows the center of the arena to bits. That same Shockwave separated Morpheus and Clarence in a flash. 

Morpheus: (Damn… their flash fist clash caused us to separate.)

Clarence: "You guys could reel it in a bit. That was too much essence wasted just to show off your brute strength."

Amera: "Tch!"

Ju'Mosi: "He's right."

Amera: "Hmmph, Let the Martial Embodiment Match… BEGIN!"

Ju'Mosi: "HAI!"

Clarence: "Hmph!" *Glare*

Morpheus: "Better keep your eye on the prize here!"

Clarence: "Hmm!? *PRCH* DOH!!"

A swift jab meets Clarence in the face. He takes a few steps back and readies himself. He enters the base stance for dragon style kung-fu and quickly pauses Morpheus in his tracks with a powerful, bottom palm strike to the chest.

Morpheus: "Ngh!'

Clarence: "You leave yourself wide open after even your most simple strikes. You're too overconfident in your striking. Slow it down and make sure your opponent is discombobulated first." *Swift* *Poom* 

Morpheus: "GAH!"

Morpheus is sent flying from Clarence, adding force to his already positioned palm strike. During this, Amera and Ju'Mosi were tearing apart the arena with their last man standing match.

Clarence: *WOOSH* "Ngh!! Their damn match is revving up to levels I wasn't expecting. (Guess he was serious about proving he's better than her today). "

Morpheus: "Hmm… they're definitely hyped up over there."

Amera throws a slashing right elbow strike that barely misses its target. Ju'Mosi returns the favor with a lowered, left uppercut to Amera's gut but was blocked by her right elbow just in time. Before she could act, he struck her with a heavy mid, right kick to her side. He tries to follow up with a left heavy hook to her jaw, but she dodges and lands a right uppercut on Ju'Mosi's gut. Then, a left jab meets his jaw, followed by a right elbow to his neck, but he blocks with his right hand. He throws her back. Upon her stumbling, he leaps high into the air and comes down with a crashing right elbow. Amera dodges the impact at the last second, causing Ju'Mosi to smash into the ground. 

Amera: (That one elbow drop caused such a massive crater to form. But I could use that rubble to my advantage.) "Gravity Impulse." 

Ju'Mosi: "Hmm? (The rubble I created is beginning to move on its own. Amera's gravity!)"

The rubble suddenly shot up at a dashing Ju'Mosi, who was making his way towards Amera. The rubble began to be warped and split to make spikes that seemed to be hooked on Ju'Mosi. 

Ju'Mosi: "Is she truly controlling them that well, or did she…? HM!?" *Glare*

And there it was, a small insignia circle dead center where his belly button is located. The circle acted as a beacon for the gravity influenced spikes to follow. It slowly leaks out particles that they track and use to speed up, bit by bit. 

"They're getting even faster and more precise. It's hard to approach Amera now!"

Amera: "I can't simply just stand around now, can I? I'll have to make this a bit harder on you, cousin Ju."

Amera rushes in as the spikes begin to close in on Ju'Mosi. He turns around and cases his arms in a wave of force essence and begins mowing down the oncoming spikes. Amera sneaks up behind him and lands a vicious left elbow to the center of Ju'Mosi's back. The impact causes a small crater to form underneath them. 

Ju'Mosi: "GAAH!!!"

Amera: "Gotcha Ju!"

Meanwhile, Morpheus was busy countering a flurry of random elemental blasts shot by Clarence. He uses his control of the Strife element to emit death particles. He wraps them around his hand and feet to help cancel out the oncoming onslaught from Clarence. A left jab, right jab, left jab, right jab, then a left hook that sends a huge wave of built-up death essence straight for Clarence.

Clarence: "Hmm!? (All of my blasts are suddenly being canceled out by something. And it's getting closer and moving at great speeds.)"

Morpheus: "Alright then. Now for an added bonus. Fist of a Thousand Gods!"

A current of force full of war particles is used to create a thousand bullets meant to go right through the death wave. 

Clarence: "Hmm!? A massive number of projectiles are headed my way at rapid speeds. Along with this damn death wave before me. (Guess I could show off some speed, then. " *FWIP*

Morpheus: "Hmm? (He's going to dodge them instead?) *glare* (Seems as though Amera is pushing Ju'Mosi back.) In that case… I'll just."

Morpheus dashes off while taking control of his many bullets that were sent out. Clarence dodges with great acrobatics going into ten backflips in a row. Then, he had to leap over another barrage of bullets, dodging but then being intercepted by bullets that landed in front of him. Clarence slides under the rubble that goes flying above him, then using that same rubble to throw off some more of the death bullets.

Clarence: (Nothing he needs improving on here. The way he uses them makes me believe he's trained with Zo. He's quite advanced in the elemental arts.) Huh!?"

Morpheus comes dashing through the cloud of dust with death bullets imbued with war essence following right behind him. 

Morpheus: "Can't let you counter them all! There was a greater reason for their being summoned, Clarence!"

Clarence: "Tch! You could learn not to rush in so recklessly."

Morpheus: *FWIP* "It's how I prefer to battle. I've tested it, and it's probably my best way to progress with great bursts." *Woosh* *SWISH* 

Clarence dodges both of Morpheus' attacks and leaps over his right sweep kick with ease. 

Clarence: "You need to learn to better control your movements when in this array of combat."

Morpheus: "And you need to…" *Duck* 

Clarence: "Damn- *Doof* *Dhuuuooph* N-Ngh… AAAARGH!"

Clarence is hit with a barrage of death bullets that had been trailing Morpheus. He quickly uses his force, Birthright, to disperse the rest of the barrage in a furious outburst. 

Clarence: *Huff* *Huff* "Damn annoyances… GAHH!"

Morpheus: "Learn to not underestimate your opponents."

Morpheus lands a huge right uppercut directly on Clarence's stomach. Clarence, being stunned by the blow, could not brace himself for the huge, left hook that met his jaw. 

Clarence: (Damn… this one stings.)

Clarence is sent flying straight for Ju'Mosi, who was in the midst of gaining the upper hand on Amera.

Ju'Mosi: "Hmmph! All good movement, but you still lack the finesse to leave no openings when countering. It's much too SLO- GUAH! (The fuck!? Clarence!?)

Amera: "Your lack of awareness is startling. Do better."

Ju'Mosi: "Why you little- *Pew* *PEW* *Pewfff* GAAAAH!"

Clarence: "AAAAAAH!!!"

Both Ju'Mosi and Clarence take the full brunt of remaining death bullets head on. Right then, Amera leaps out in front of the two with a readied attack. 

Amera: "Now then! Gravity Impact!" 

A huge wave of force slowly pulls them into its center only to explode, tossing them both into a nearby mountain range. Amera and Morpheus regroup and begin to dash towards that same mountain range. 

Ju'Mosi: "You're both being a bit hasty."

Clarence: "You should've used this time to strategize, cause… we're about to tear this million acres worth of battlefield into smithereens."

Ju'Mosi: "Hmph! Embodi-Force WORLD-" *Grip*

Morpheus: "You're crazy if you think I'd let you get off such a crazy technique."

Clarence: "That was quite the burst of speed Morpheus."

Morpheus: "Hmph! Well I'm just here to stop him and be the decoy."

Clarence: "The what!?"

Ju'Mosi: (I can feel a huge surge of essence flowing from underneath us.)

And just then, the mountain range and an area as far as 2 miles out all around were beginning to float. It was Amera's gravity influence that gave rise to this. She was attempting to incase the two of them in a great ball of rubble and land. 

Amera: "I'll have you trapped in no time."

Ju'Mosi: "You're forgetting that gravity… is just another type of force. *VVVVVWIMP* I can't allow you to just trap us here. Your control has grown though."

Amera: "Tch! (He's completely stopped me in my tracks with a wave of his hand. We may all be tens right now… but his control trumps my own.)"

Morpheus: *Gasp* "This is crazy. (He completely stopped her influence!)

Ju'Mosi: "You two are quite powerful and very precise with your skills. You used what we knew and added to your arsenal accordingly. But there's something you lack that separates us from you two."

Clarence: "Hmm. You're speaking true facts. Hup!" *WOOSH*

Morpheus: "Yet another fist clash… *FWIP* Didn't you learn from the first one we had!?" *WOOSH* 

The two clash fists head on, but this time… Morpheus was sent flying back from the collision while Clarence stays back, sitting pretty.

Morpheus: "GRRRGH!!! *CRASH* N-Ngh! What… the hell was that!?"

Ju'Mosi: "That was Armoured Zenchi. What I'll be using for you Amera, is Physical Zenchi. HMPH!" *PewTING* 

Amera: *Quake* *Shake* *RUMBLE* "D-Dammit all! His influence with Zenchi's help is too great! *Grip* Huh?"

Morpheus: "Then let's use our birthright together and quadruple it with our doubling ability through the power of Mayhem!"

Amera: "U-Uh… you're right! Let's go for it."

Morpheus & Amera: "Grand Double Requiem!"

Ju'Mosi: "Huh!?"

Clarence: "They seem to have put enough power behind it to match your unmastered Zenchi influence. Good for them… had it been mastered, their efforts would be nullified. No matter…" *Fwip*

Ju'Mosi: "No, no. Let this play out my friend. Their efforts will go as far as to only cancel out my attack. Nothing more." 

*Vwimp*... *Vwimp*.. *VWIPM* *VWIMP* *VWIMP* *"VWMP"* … *KaBOOOOOOM!!!* The two attacks clash and create a massive explosion as they cancel each other out. The force and explosion itself scorch their battle field as far as 250 miles out going in every direction. A perfect circle.

Clarence: "Hmph! Seems you were right brah."

Ju'Mosi: "You already know brah. Now that your spar is out of the way. Time for my lessons on Zenchi and its four branches." 

Clarence: "Righteous brah!"

Ju'Mosi: "You two ready to learn some Zenchi!?"

Morpheus: "Hell yeah!"

Amera: "Of course cousin Ju. Let's see what ya got."

Ju'Mosi: "Alright then… we'll start with mental Zenchi, a branch on the Zenchi tree that can help one further push the boundaries of your senses and intellect. But also help master and learn studies faster as well… as bond with them."

Amera: "I'm all in!"

Morpheus: "Let's start already!" 

Zo'Elgor: "Seems we've got ourselves a little lesson going on here. I'd say… once they get some Zenchi down and learn I can take over, and teach you all something about Zenchi."

Malikai: "Sounds good to me sir."

Zoshen: "I'm down big brother." 

Zo'Elgor: "Alright then… Zo'Elgor's private lessons continue!"

Morpheus and Amera do well in their first spar against Ju'Mosi and Clarence. Now, the time has come to learn about the art of Zenchi. A lesson from Zo'Elgor to look forward to!
