Here's the next chapter:

"The Aftermath"

Larry looked at his team, a grin spreading across his face. "Good job, guys. Take a rest, we'll train more later. You all did great, especially you, Kai. I didn't think you'd last that long against me."

Kai, still lying on the ground, looked up at him with a mixture of frustration and admiration. "You're too strong, Larry," he said, shaking his head.

Larry chuckled. "That's what happens when you have a king rank Dijin on your side," he said, winking at Lady Zephyr. "She's been helping me train, and let me tell you, it's been a game-changer."

Lady Zephyr smiled, her eyes gleaming with amusement. "Larry's been a quick learner," she said. "He's got a lot of potential, and with my help, he's going to become one of the strongest fighters in the land."

Kai nodded, his eyes wide with awe. "I can believe it," he said. "You two are a formidable team. I don't know how I'm going to beat you next time."

Larry laughed. "Don't worry, Kai. I'm sure you'll figure something out. You're a resourceful guy. But for now, let's just enjoy the victory, okay?"

With that, he turned and followed Lady Zephyr out of the room, leaving Kai and his team to nurse their wounds and wonder what they had just gotten themselves into.

As they left, Lady Zephyr turned to Larry and said, "You know, Larry, you're getting too strong. I think it's time for you to start learning some new techniques, something that will help you control your power better."

Larry nodded, his eyes gleaming with excitement. "I'm ready, Lady Zephyr. Let's do it."

And with that, the two of them disappeared into the shadows, leaving Kai and his team to wonder what the future held for them.
