Chapter 8 - TRAINING (2)

Day 1: The Breaking Point

Abraham gasped, collapsing to his knees amid the dojo's swirling dust. "I can't keep going—this is too much!"

Jin Tiandao loomed over him, fist paused mid-strike. "Good. You've reached your breaking point. Now break the breaking point."

Abraham: (breathing heavily) "Is this really how every day will be?"

Jin Tiandao: "Yes. Until you are no longer afraid." ��Day 3: Test of Endurance

Bruises blooming like dark lotuses, Abraham staggered up. "Master, how long must I endure this suffering?"

Jin Tiandao: "Until your body no longer screams and your spirit demands more."

Abraham: "And if I break before then?"

Jin Tiandao: "Then you are not ready to carry the legacy you seek."Day 7: The Reason Behind Pain

Sweat stung his eyes as another barrage landed. "Why must the training be this brutal? Isn't there another way?"

Jin Tiandao: "Pain carves strength where comfort carves weakness. You must understand your limits by breaking them."

Abraham: "But what if I fail?"

Jin Tiandao: "Failure is a step, not the end. Rise, or remain nothing." ��Day 14: Seeking Guidance

Blood trickled from a split lip; Abraham wiped it away. "Master, I don't understand the purpose behind some of these techniques."

Jin Tiandao: "One day, you will teach others who ask the same. For now, trust the process even when it eludes you."

Abraham: "I want to learn everything, not just endure."

Jin Tiandao: "Endurance is the foundation of all learning." �Day 30: Growing Respect

Abraham blocked a strike for the first time, earning a nod. "I thought I was strong, but you make me feel weak."

Jin Tiandao: "True strength is born from humility. Today's weakness is tomorrow's power."

Abraham: "Will this ever get easier?"

Jin Tiandao: "When your spirit surpasses your body's limits."
