A few miles away from their hometown, they finally found the place where they were supposed to be. It was a tiny little village. They had heard that the main road here was blocked by large rocks, so most of the road was only left as mud and was very narrow. The people gathered here were the most ordinary folk, like the ones wandering the streets, waiting for anything to happen. Most of them did not even pay attention to how their lives were going, as if they had nothing to do but to stay here. Soon, they became just like all the others.
They found their home at Ye Xin Mei’s small house, she granted them her name, and trained them for combat. Despite being a small village, it contained an energy master. She would go on to teach them how to control this energy. Thermal, kinematic, electrical. And how to store electricity in conductors, and using glycons and phosphate for muscles. This energy could be used to create shocks, heat, or move an object at great speeds. They first learned how to do a flurry of punches. The stored energy transformed into kinetic energy, and was used to push the fist forward and backward rapidly. The students were then able to make moves that required kinetic energy, such as moving at high speeds.
The students practiced their skills for many weeks, learning all the various arts of attack that a human would learn in a brief span of time. After two years of training the students realized how vital these techniques were in combat.
So, the students began to use what they learned to produce electricity in order to perform more complex moves. By studying different kinds of electric circuits, they devised a better system for storing electrical energy and the ability to shock objects and humans.
One year later they began to use all this new knowledge to create more and more complex devices that could help them defend themselves, or perform other destructive tasks including using telekinesis in order to escape from difficult areas and make difficult attacks against opponents that were far away. The telekinesis was limited to light objects nearby, such as a leaf or air.
One year after that came the invention of the bomb and the use of atomic particles to create a powerful blast in order to destroy objects such as buildings, vehicles, and even humans. The nuclear material was so powerful that there would be no need to use actual bombs, and the blast was made of atoms that were even more powerful than the energy from ordinary electric currents.
This explosion generated many small explosions that would destroy objects such as buildings and bodies, although a large amount of energy was used to create them.
This was not enough; they developed stronger versions of these devices and began to manipulate them in order to be able to generate electricity and produce more complex objects. By focusing on these devices, they could generate powerful attacks, and used their new devices to fight with each other as they grew stronger. Through this process and using a variety of other techniques, the two, now masters, were able to create a power which had been referred to by some as the first telepath. Using quantum entanglement, they could communicate with each other instantly. They were able to learn to manipulate each other's thoughts to improve their skills in combat, which made them stronger rivals. The brothers had become quite popular. Eventually, as the brothers gained more and more powerful weapons, they began to rival each other stronger.

For the next two years or so, the two masters had a number of sparring matches with each other. Eventually, the brothers realized that they could do more than just battle. The two grew closer. The brothers, both of them, found that one way of expressing their thoughts was by writing down other ideas. They would quantum entangle strangers from the village and alter their minds to a high degree of intelligence. Then, whatever was said, they would write in a document. They called this notebook the 'Penny Book.’ They had hidden this research from their master, Ye Xin Mei. She stumbled upon it and began to wonder: was this their journal? It was when she read more pages, she realized what it was. Mei called on a meeting. There she ridiculed the brothers for the unethical practice and banished them from the village. Zifeng felt great guilt in what he had done and begged for Mei’s forgiveness. She promised to forgive them once they had each returned with a Dragon Emblem from Wuwura’s Castle. They did not know at the moment, that Wuwura’s Castle did not exist and there was no Dragon Emblem. However, Zhu had a shattering idea. He would entangle himself to Mei, understand exactly what this Dragon Emblem was and craft it himself. Zhu was successful in doing so. He had subdued Mei with a strong chemical while she laid asleep and proceeded with the plan. He presented the Dragon Emblem the next week. She was in disbelief, how could this possibly be? She rejected it, as she said again, only once each of you have returned with one, I shall forgive you. Zhu went on to search for his brother. Halfway around the planet he found Zifeng. He had been asking many around the world for the location of Wuwura’s Castle, leading him nowhere. It was on top of a mountain that Zhu found Zifeng. He gave the Dragon Emblem to his brother, and his brother asked where he had obtained it, for he wanted to earn it himself. Zhu lied and said the castle had collapsed, and that there were only two copies of which he had both. Zifeng felt humiliated. He didn’t feel his burden lift away, he only felt the debt he had to pay back to his brother. He always knew his brother was the stronger one, but he couldn’t forgive himself for this failure. With great regret he headed back to Mei with the two Dragon Emblems.
Once they reunited, Zifeng fell to his knees and profusely apologized to his master for not being able to acquire the Dragon Emblem himself. Mei then told them that there was never a Dragon Emblem or Wuwura’s Castle. Zifeng was confused, how could there not be such a thing when the two Dragon Emblems were sitting right in front of them? Mei explained that she chose to banish the brothers forever, with a hunt for something that they could not acquire. Now, that they had returned with something, she was infuriated. She thought the brothers had not taken her punishment seriously, and told them to leave and never return. Zhu then revealed he had subdued Mei to understand exactly what the Dragon Emblem was, and he crafted two himself. He said, now that they had returned with the impossible, they had redeemed themselves. He told his master how foolish it was to be ridiculed for something like the Penny Book. No one was hurt, they only did what they did to understand the human nature. Mei told them it was a massive invasion of privacy, that they had been doing this without consent; they were kidnapping. Zhu saw nothing wrong with it, the folk would be returned back to their homes without any memory of such occurrence. He reiterated: no one was hurt. Mei said she would let the brothers leave without conflict if they promised to never use their powers for themselves. Zifeng conformed instantly, but Zhu refused. In fact, it was obvious now that Zhu had turned destructive. Even after being banished, Zhu had subdued his master and used that very power on her. Mei said, Zhu would not be allowed to leave, and that he would have to stay here and work for her. Zhu did not take this well, and he refused once again and began to journey off. Mei threatened to kill him if he left, but that did not strike Zhu as a problem. Once Zhu was gone, Mei ordered Zifeng to kill Zhu and then she would forgive him. Zhu did not want to kill his brother but he could see no other choice. Mei said that if Zhu was not dead by tomorrow, she would send her two other students to finish the job. Zifeng followed the main path out of the village, and he crossed paths with Zhu not long after. That was when the final battle began.
