[Hyûga Enten]

KONOHAGAKURE NO SATO
Hyûga Compound Dojo

Hyûga Enten, Jûken Master of the clan, was instructing his students.

He watched as a half dozen young Hyûga struck their training dummies multiple times, each one with Byakugan active and focusing on their targets. Each dummy was equipped with a physical representation of the chakra circulatory system which reacted when struck with chakra by glowing blue, making them critical in the training of the basic Jûken techniques.

Unfortunately, some learned slower than others.

Enten, ever the calm amongst the chaos, walked among his students while they trained. "Focus, students. Focus is the principle aspect of the Jûken. You must flow like a river, your concentration moving from strike to strike until it's almost second nature. The only way you will ever be able to perform the Rokujyûyon Shō is if your body does it as muscle memory. Memorize the strikes with your body." He stopped one child who was clearly trying too hard.

"Focus, young one. You know the order to strike in, do not let the objective override that order. Shortcuts lead to incomplete techniques." He guided the student, slowly, through each strike of the Rokujyûyon Shō. This class were all main family children, but he hated the fact that they were the only ones allowed to learn this particular technique. His branch family class were twice as dedicated, and there were several of them who could easily learn this technique.

If only the elders of the clan were not so stuck in their old ways...
