The Birth of The Dai-Shi

Taira and Aveena weren't very much surprised by Tiche's desire to challenge them, which is why they hardly reacted to her prodding. 

"Alright, well we don't mind or anything. But which of us are you challenging?" Aveena asked with her hands behind her back.

"Which of you is to become Sect leader?"

""Both of us.""

"Then I must test both of you."

"...At the same time?" Aveena clarified. 

"Naturally."

Taira's eyes narrowed. "Be warned. You get but one opportunity to invoke this test of yours. Afterwards, I expect you to comply totally."

Tiche smirked pridefully. 

"You have my word. Are you still man enough to accept my challenge?"

"...How eager you are to learn." Taira shook his head. "Our first lesson has begun already."

Taira snapped his fingers and a deep blue circle of flame surrounded the three of them.
