Harry met with his small party members at Akihabara's town square, he gave them each a horse Summon whistle and rode them for 3 hours and went to a clearing.
"Shishou, why are we stopping in a clearing?." asked Ranma.
"Why to test your skills desu~, it wouldn't do if your shishou can't help his students." answered Harry.
"All right kiddies, you will battle me one on one, go all out okay?, or I just might see you on the flipside, and by that I mean the cathedral respawn point." Harry explained.
"So who is first?." Asked Harry.
"I will shishou, allow me to show you how powerful I am." said Ranma.
Ranma decided to show off right away, and channeled large energy of ki in his hands, he concentrated untill a ball of energy formed and expanded into the size of a basket ball, he eagerly shouted his technique "Moko Tokoshi..." was suddenly interrupted.
"Soul Strike!." Harry said as five spirit blast went straight into Ranma leaving him in the verge of dying.
"Lesson one, no-one will wait for you on the battlefield, so go all out, there as no such thing as honor, only the victor and the loser, the victor is always right and gets to write history while the looser gets nothing." explained Harry sagely.
"My kind of guy, I'll go next." said Killua.
Killua stared and studied Harry and encircled him sillently leaving a silhouette of Killua, leaving mirages until it formed into 8 Killua's. Killua said his technique confidently."Mirage Steps!, which of us is the real Killua?." he taunted.
Harry looked at the eight Killua and laughed. "Lesson two, never assume that the enemy has only one trick on his sleeve, and in a situation where your outnumbered, if your not confident in your abilities, then run, otherwise there are plenty of methods to deal with them. Here's mine, when dealing with large numbers, simply overpower them, end of story." Harry explained.
"And how are you going to do that you are clearly outnumbered?." Killua said and bluffed as all 7 copies were illusions.
"Simple my dear boy, Summon Blissey Army!." Harry said as eight summoning circle appeared on the ground summoning his cute army of shiny Blissey pokemon eight in total, what a coincidence.
The field was covered in pink and one Nanoha Takamichi squealed in delight.
"Blissey, double-slap all Killua's." Harry ordered as cute bundles of joy approached eached Killua's copy, and leaving the original stunned which resulted in Killua being slapped senseless, and incapacitated.
"Who's next?." Harry asked, the remaining people, and most of them hesitated, but Nanoha raised her hand excitedly.
"I'm next, don't underestimate me because I'm a cleric, I also have an original skill from back then, allow me to show you." Nanoha leaped into action and increased her distance, and began to charge her staff with energy, and pointed it at Harry.
"I took your lessons at heart sensei, it's always better to overpower your enemy." Nanoha explained as she began to charge her special attack. It looked mighty powerful.
"Divine Buster!." Shouted Nanoha as a giant pink beam of destruction headed towards Harry.
"Blissey's, all of you, light screen." Harry ordered as the Blissey's conjured up a transparent barrier.
There was a huge explosion, dust was everywhere, Nanoha was confident she won, nobody, I mean nobody has won before her super amazing ultra powerful technique.
It was no wonder that Nanoha was surprised that Harry was standing with no damage, it left her speechless.
"Its my turn now, Blissey Army!." Harry announced his next attack, and gave a dramatic pause. All his party members were excited, and they anticipated a super special attack surprise that always seem to impress Harry's members. but to their utter shock, they could nowt believed what he ordered them.

"Sing!." Harry announced to which all of his members facepalmed, and sweatdropped, they thought "what kind of attack is that?, I was expecting something more flashy."
But to their utter shock, they quickly began to fall under Blissey's spell and fell asleep soundly.
When they woke up, they (Ranma, Killua and Nanoha) were quickly surprised that they were tied to a log and there was a feast of assorted food in front of them. The smell and aroma of the dishes were dancing in their noses telling them to eat the almighty delicious foods of the gods.
"I see you guys are awake, you are wondering why you are tied to a log?, it's simple, it's a punishment game, now Gon and Saito still haven't taken their test, so stay still, not that you can do anything besides that, mwahahahahahaha!." Harry said as he went to wake up the other two sleeping members.
"Wake up kiddes, it your turn for your tests." Harry said in a sweet voice and shivered down their spine.
"We give!, we give!, we are clearly no match for you sensei!." Gon and Saito answered simultaneously.
"YOU!, YOU!, Pass." said Harry with a cheery expression.
"What!?." Gon and Saito shouted confused.
"Allow me to explain, as you observed from the tests that I gave to the other members, you quickly deduced, that your no match at all, and listened to your guts telling you to stay away from me. In a battle where lives are at stake, it is important to gauge the skills of the enemy before making the right decisions, making rash ones lead to senseless deaths, and mission failure." Harry explained.
Harry's words made them ponder, it wasn't always about strength, it was also about strength in character, and looking at the situation from different views, like the saying goes "look underneath, the underneath." They quickly realized that the person teaching them was no mere clumsy, frail magician class player as he made himself to be, but a good strategist although not as good as Shiroe when handling things, but a very good strategist that cared for his comrades. It was then they realized the magnificence of Harry and they all thought, "I will follow this person to the death. With this man in charge, nothing could go wrong." They were clearly very inspired as the twinkle in all their eyes were shining very brightly at full blast.
"Ahem, seeing as you understood the lessons I have demonstrated, kindly untie our tied up friends so we can eat, we are having a feast." Harry said as they all jumped for joy and enjoyed the food that was very very delicious making them cry.

Side Story:
It was a grinding training, when Harry and his group encountered PK users.
"Nanoha, how many times must I say this, you're a cleric, you stay in the back and heal!" said Harry.
"Mou, but it is so boring in the back, and I'm making more damage than the guys!"
"She does have a point shishou..." answered Gon.
"..."
"Hmm, theres just one problem with that train of thought, the enemy is still alive, and your MP is now low, your teammates lives are in your hands, while it's good that you have have high attack damage, that also means that you have high heal potential, find your balance, find your rhythm, and you can attack and defend at your leisure." Harry explained.
The last lone cleric PK user began to ran away.
"Soul Strike!." Harry casted his spell as blasts of energy soared through, and impaled the cleric, resulting him to burst into particles.
"Battle tactics lesons one, A good enemy cleric is a dead cleric, if their is an opening to kill the enemy cleric then take it, their to troublesome if left alone on the battlefield." Said Harry sagely.
"Yes that's true, especially our own." The group thought excluding Nanoha.
