Chapter 137 Sudden Encounter(1/2)

With Toph joining the team, Aang's martial arts teachers have been completely gathered. Next, they need to teach Aang the martial arts while moving towards the Eternal City.

The first thing Toph did after joining the team was to respond to Kahn's previous invitation for an all-out battle, and then——

Unsurprisingly, we lost.

"One is flying in the sky and the other is treading without a trace. It's simply cheating!"

Toph shouted angrily.

When it comes to head-on battles, Toph's talent is also top-notch. Her superb earthbending skills and meticulous sensing ability complement each other and make her almost invincible on the earth.

Kahn played indisputably.

In this battle, Kahn made two brand-new discoveries.

The first discovery is that Tove has a fatal flaw, that is, as a blind person, she cannot detect things in the air.

Unfortunately, Karn can fly briefly after using firebending. As long as he is flying in the air, Toph can only be blinded in the true sense.

This is also the reason why this contest ended in Toph's defeat.

What's even more unfortunate is that Aang's restraint on Toph is even more obvious. As an airbender, Aang's every move is very light. After using airbending, it is even difficult to detect his steps. It can be said that Toph is a Skybender.

Let her eat twice in a row.

Kahn couldn't help but sigh, the flying type restrains the ground type, Pokémon will never deceive me.

The second discovery is about the weakness of earthbending itself, or in other words, the upper limit of the earth element.

From the current point of view, Earthbending itself can control soil, sand, and rocks. It is very powerful in terms of power and practicality. However, even the hardest rocks cannot withstand the powerful damage of Fire Explosion and Thunderbending.

force.

In other words, from the upper limit of destructive power, earthbending is difficult to compete with firebending.

Of course, even though it is said that, thunder control is only an advanced fire control secretly passed down by the Fire Nation royal family, while pyrotechnic is a dangerous double-edged sword that is difficult to master, and only a few people can control it.

It is not unreasonable to exclude them as special cases.

Just like Toph's abnormal perception ability, not everyone can achieve it, and the only person who can master the lightning control technique and the fire explosion technique at the same time is probably the monster Kahn.

Most of the time, firebending and earthbending only have advantages and disadvantages, and it all depends on the level of the master.

On the other side, after witnessing the battle between Kahn and Toph, Aang and others gained a new understanding of the battle between the two.

Especially Kahn's performance was the strongest firebender they had ever seen!

Kahn's control over flames can be said to have introduced them to a brand new form of fire control.

The firebending enemies they faced in the past were simply a disaster when they used their magic. The arrogant flames spread wantonly, turning everything in their path into ashes, which was terrifying.

But Kahn's flames were like a tamed tiger. They looked like they were showing off their teeth and claws, but were actually extremely docile. They accurately counteracted Toph's imperial skills without affecting other places.

After witnessing the battle between Kahn and Toph, Aang was completely sure that Kahn was the firebending teacher he wanted. He even couldn't wait to ask:

"Kahn, when can we start learning firebending?"

"Just wait a little longer."

However, Kahn just refused with a mysterious smile, making Aang a little anxious and confused.

Let’s get back to the topic.

"The camping site you chose is good. The grass on the ground is quite soft."

After another day's journey, as night approached, Toph jumped off Apa, feeling the soft touch under her feet and slightly raised her lips.

Sokka kindly reminded her:

"Those are not grass, but Appa's fallen hairs."

That's right, spring is here, and Apa has also started to shed his hair. As a giant animal weighing several tons, the hair on Apa's body is quite thick. Just the hair that falls off naturally forms a small blanket on the ground.

Momo grabbed a handful of hair on the ground and put it into her mouth. After chewing it for a few times, she quickly spit it out, saying it was unpalatable.

Katara said with slight disgust: "It feels so disgusting."

"It's not disgusting at all, it's just part of spring."

Aang smiled and said:

"Spring awakens the earth, everything revives, and it's time for Apa to have new clothes."

Looking at the unmanageable hair all over the floor, Kahn was suddenly glad that his, southeast, northwest, and others did not need to change their hair. He spread his hands and said:

"That's what I said, but let's find a place to give Appa a bath. If Appa is allowed to shed his hair while walking like this, then our whereabouts will be completely exposed."

"That's right. Let's give Appa a bath first tomorrow."

Kahn's opinion was unanimously agreed by everyone.

In the evening, everyone tidied up the camp, Aang packed the packages, Sokka set up the tent, Kahn was responsible for lighting the fire, and Katara was responsible for fetching water for everyone. Only Toph was lying leisurely on the ground, a little different from everyone else.

Katara frowned slightly when she saw this, walked up to Toph and said:

"That's right, Toph, we usually need to work together when camping, so..."

Toph didn't hear what Katara meant, crossed her legs and said indifferently:

"Don't worry about me, I can take care of myself."

Katara's frown deepened, "I mean..."

"Hey, Toph!"

Suddenly, Kahn on the side suddenly called Toph and said:

"The ground where the tents are set up here is not very flat. Can you help make the ground smoother with royal magic?"

"That's it? It's nothing."

Toph raised her eyebrows, stood up and stepped on her right foot. The originally uneven ground was as smooth as a man-made road.

Kahn laughed:

"That's really helpful. Let's eat together later. Katara's cooking is pretty good, but don't eat yourself first."

Katara also reacted at this time, smiled and invited:

"That's right, let's eat together later. You can try my cooking to see if it suits your taste."

Tuofu thought for a while, then put back the dry food he had just taken out, nodded and said:

"That's okay."

Toph did do her part, and Katara stopped lecturing her. She walked to Kahn and thanked her:

"Thank you for your help."

"nothing,"

Kahn smiled and said:

"Toph has never had friends before, so she may not know much about teamwork, but she is essentially a kind person and she just needs some guidance."

"I may have been too impatient just now. I will tell her carefully later."

Katara nodded in understanding, then smiled and said:

"I always feel that Kahn, you are very good at dealing with this kind of thing."

Kahn also laughed, "I took care of a child before, and her character was much worse than Toph's."

After saying that, Kahn turned around and continued to do his own things, while Katara was still looking at his back curiously with inquiring eyes.

Although they have been together for a while, their understanding of Kahn seems not to be as good as their understanding of Toph. They know nothing about Kahn's past, and he has never mentioned it himself, as if he is deliberately hiding it.

What the same.

We have to continue traveling tomorrow, so everyone goes to bed early after eating.

However, not long after, Toph suddenly woke up from her sleep. She felt an inexplicable movement coming from the ground, so she quickly got up and woke everyone up and said:

"Get up, it seems like something is coming towards us!"

"what?"

Everyone was woken up by Tuofu, and they walked out of the tent in a confused way, not knowing what she was talking about.

Toph listened carefully to the vibrations of the earth:

"I think it looks like an avalanche, but it doesn't look like it. I've never seen anything like this before. Anyway, it's moving towards us."

Sokka was drowsy and said with a speechless expression: "Your perception is too good, isn't it?"

Katara said, "What should we do now? Should we leave first?"

"I think it's better to see what it is before we deal with it. We can't keep running away, right?"

Kahn suggested.

"Then let's go and take a look first."

Aang nodded and listened to Kahn's suggestion, so everyone quickly packed up their things and took Appa to fly to a high platform. Looking from above, they quickly discovered what Toph was talking about.
To be continued...
