Azayllyn was still reeling from his battle with the Samurai. He hate that he was beaten so easily but there was nothing he could do for it he was still too weak. But he wouldn't be like that forever. He needed to get stronger and fast. It was almost time for the chunin exams. He would head out tomorrow and after that it was only a matter of time before he had to face another opponent. He decided he needed more techniques to keep up his on-the-fly strategies. Today one of the techniques he'd be learning was Substitution or Body Replacement Technique as was the formal name. He had gotten a few ninja to hide in the trees and throw kunai at him. While they did that he would continuously try and make a substitution and any time he failed he would be hurt by the kunai. It was a crude but effective method of training and before an hour was up he'd all but mastered the art of substitution. It was after all something even Academey Students could learn. Az went a few more rounds of dodge the kunai before he was satisfied he truly had the skill down and finally he felt he was able to move on to the next training before he finally started on his way back home.
