[ 0 0 | 50 ]Masao was behind his house in the training grounds that he had set up so many years ago. Today he was training once again with his mentor for Santoryu. Due to the many facilities that came with Masao's large and extravagant house it was more convenient for the man to come to him rather than the other way around.
He stood watching his master demonstrate the attack and the required stance in order to swing the blade in such a manner. As his master swung into the dummy in front of him and set it ablaze he watched every little movement the man had made. This technique didn't honestly seem that difficult to him as he had trained to do much more impressive attacks with Busosen.
In order to get ready for his training Masao began to do a series of warm ups. His first warm up would consist of him raising his arms to be in line with one another, the left hand placed gently over the right. He would then lean over with his left leg keeping his right as straight as possible. He would then twist the upper part of his body about eighty degrees before alternating and doing this the opposite way. After doing this he would raise his left leg and apply pressure with both hands just below the knee raising his legs as high as possible and stretching out the muscles alternating once again for the other leg. In order to further stretch out the legs he would kick up and touch his outstretched arms doing high kicks for both legs.
The second part of his warm up began by him leaning over onto the ground in the position for push ups however he would lift one leg up to be in line with the hand of the same side. Whilst in this position the man would stretch by lifting his arm and twisting his torso into a nearly ninety degree angle and then alternating for the other side. After this he would begin to a couple of push ups alternating his arms into a t position by entering a similar stance as before. With this done he would follow up with a couple of squats to finish the warm up into his training.
After this Masao would head on over to one of his many practice swords and hold it with his left hand. He would walk back over into position and adjust his body so that he would be entering the required stance to attack the dummy only a meter in front of him. This meant that he had lifted up his left hand with the sword angled slightly towards the dummy in general stance however he has adjusted his feet in order to propel himself and his right hand is placed firmly around his left wrist. He looked at his teacher who shook his head disapprovingly. This was due to entering the stance incorrectly however his teacher had told him to attempt the attack in order to feel where he has problems in his stance. Doing as he was told Masao went to jump to make the slash however his legs were not properly taking into account the way he had to hold his sword and as a result he fell forwards before he could even arc his weapon to attack the dummy in front of him.
This meant that Masao knew immediately the problem with his stance and this time as he would enter it once more he would adjust his legs accordingly. His left arm was raised once more and his right hand was firmly placed on his wrist again. However this time he took careful note of hos his feet were positions. His left was not put ahead this time instead it was his right and it wasn't placed in a manner similar to that of a track runner ready to push themselves off the ground instead it was similar to the stance of someone about to do a vertical jump. This time Masao had made improvements on what he was trying to do however he still managed to muddle up exactly what he was trying to do. This is due to the fact that he had jumped much to high for it to be even remotely practical for combat. As he landed back on the floor he got back in position to attempt this once again.Hiryuu Kaen (飛竜火焔, Flying Dragon Blaze)
