When they arrived at the mansion, they were greeted by Lady Yourichi and Young Master Yūshirō who were overjoyed to see Yuichi. They were amazed at how much he had grown and improved, and they praised him for his hard work and dedication.

Yourichi spoke up, "Yuichi, we're so glad you're back. It’s good to see how much you've grown since the last time we saw you. Your hard work and dedication are truly inspiring."

Yūshirō nodded in agreement, "I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical when I first heard about your training, but now I can see that it's really paying off. Your muscle and reiatsu have increased dramatically since I last saw you, and I'm sure you'll only get stronger with time."

Yuichi smiled, "Thank you both for your kind words. I'm so grateful to have the opportunity to train with Mei and learn from both of you."

Yourichi smiled, "It's our pleasure, Yuichi. We're always here to support and guide you since I’m the one who suggested you take this path."

Yūshirō added, "And don't worry, Mei informed us that you’re lacking in a few areas so we'll make sure to give you a good workout in Hohō and Hakuda. We want to help you reach your full potential. When you do you can be my sparring partner."

Yuichi laughed, "I'm looking forward to it. I'm eager to learn and grow stronger."

Mei smiled, "Might I also partake in the lesson my lady I’ve become a bit sluggish in these past few months. I would like a good workout."

Yourichi smirked, “Sure I’ll have Yūshirō and Suì-Fēng teach the both of you.”

As Yoruichi mentioned her name Suì-Fēng appeared out of nowhere startling Yuichi causing him to fall over and grasp his heart. This caused all of them to break out laughing even Mei gave a reserved chuckle which she failed to hide. After a warm welcome, they all sat down for a meal and discussed their training plans for the coming days. Suì-Fēng and Yūshirō offered to give Yuichi and Mei lessons on Hohō and Hakuda, and they were eager to start.

The training sessions with Yūshirō and Suì-Fēng were intense and demanding. Mei was trained by Yūshirō who pushed her to her limits, pushing her to new heights in Hohō and Hakuda. Yuichi, on the other hand, was taught by Suì-Fēng who took a more hands-on approach.

Suì-Fēng was known for her brutal training methods, and she did not disappoint. She pushed Yuichi to his limits, never letting up and constantly pushing him to do better. The training was so intense that Yuichi felt like his body was being beaten to a pulp. He was given a healing pill that helped him recover, but then Suì-Fēng would continue to push him even harder.

Despite the difficulty of the training, Yuichi found himself longing for it. He was fascinated by the way Suì-Fēng taught, always pushing him to his limits and beyond. With her guidance, he learned to use Hohō and Hakuda in ways he had never considered before, and he was eager to continue learning.

Mei's training with Yūshirō more of a refresher so it was less demanding. He pushed her to her limits, and she rose to the challenge. She was always a strong fighter, but under Yūshirō's tutelage, she seemed to be even stronger.

When the training sessions were over, Yuichi and Mei were exhausted but proud of what they had accomplished. Yuichi was also glad he was still alive because he felt anymore training and he might have died. No longer did Yuichi think Mei's training was hellish when compared to Suì-Fēng’s teaching style, instead, he now longed for it rather than this true hell.

After the intense training sessions with Yūshirō and Suì-Fēng, Mei and Yuichi were both exhausted. They were sent to take a bath to soothe their sore muscles and relax their bodies. They took a long soak in the hot water, letting the heat ease their pain and rejuvenate their bodies.

After they finished taking their baths, they joined Yoruichi, Yūshirō, and Suì-Fēng for dinner where they asked about the academy and what new things Mei and Yuichi had learned. They were eager to hear about their experiences and how their training had gone.

Mei and Yuichi shared their experiences and the lessons they had learned, and everyone listened with interest. They were impressed by their hard work and dedication, and they praised their progress.

Yoruichi spoke up, "You both have done so well. Your lessons and training seem to be paying off, and it's amazing to see the ways you've both grown. Especially you Mei you’re no longer so stiff and I’m glad."

Yūshirō nodded in agreement, "I can see that you're both dedicated and determined. Yuichi you have great potential, and I'm sure you'll continue to grow and improve. I’m looking forward to your next visit."

Suì-Fēng added, "I must say, I was impressed by your progress. The young man from a few months ago would have died in that training session but you rose to the challenge. When you’re stronger I can turn up the intensity."

Yuichi laughed nervously as he said, “Please don’t I don’t think I’ll survive that. Anyways, my growth is mostly thanks to Mei over there.”

Mei blushed slightly and said, “Please no that's a bit embarrassing. Your growth is due to your own effort all I did was help you push yourself until you attained it. You deserve the praise, not me. Also, Lady Yoruichi please don’t tease me so much.”

Yoruichi smiled, "You both are too humble. Your growth is a result of both hard work and helping each other. You push each other to be the best versions of yourselves, and that's what will make you both strong. So anyways how about spending the night here it’ll be like old times."

Yuichi and Mei both agreed to spend the night at Yoruichi's place. As the night went on, they laughed and had a great time, enjoying each other's company. It was a night filled with good food, great conversation, and even better memories.

Before retiring for the night, Yuichi thanked Yoruichi, Yūshirō, and Suì-Fēng for everything they had done for them. He said he was grateful for their guidance and support, and promised to continue to work hard to improve himself.

Yuichi excused himself from the dining area early and went to the room he stayed in previously. A new maid led him as Mei stayed back with Yoruichi.

‘I guess she’ll be making a report on me and anything suspicious she encountered at the academy. I’m definitely stronger and I’ve made tremendous strides. The best part is now I can freely enter my inner world to practice. I’ll need to figure out that kido to hide reiatsu and reiryoku.’

With a smile on his face, Yuichi finally fell into a deep and peaceful sleep, dreaming of a bright future ahead.
