Mana training/ skill training

Imagine you awaken, your skill is ice, but there is a plot twist, your ice skill is in level 1, and if you try using it, it won't work unless you imagine how your skill should look like or work like. For example, if you imagine ice spikes or ice shards, and aim it a certain object, you can actually use it.

You might have this doubt, how can I use my skill? of course by mana training or skill training whatever you want to call it. But mana training isn't as easy as you think it is, to train it we need peace in our mind which most of us don't have.

....

Now, that the so called warmup is done, we are finally gonna start our mana training.

We should first learn how to control mana throughout our body, and then learn how to use our skill professionally. 

The trainer took the students to the same ground where they did their warmup. This made all the students displeased, as it is a reminder of their warmup.

The trainer ordered all the students to sit on the ground and meditate for 5 minutes.

In mana training one must be in a peaceful state of mind. 

The trainer first said what they should and shouldn't do, after that all of us sat on the ground doing what the trainer instructed us.

Well... I didn't exactly did what he said me to. I only meditated, as I already know how it works.

There is a specific way for us to control mana. First, we need to start meditating, and after sometime imagine our mana running throughout our body. Second, we must take all the mana that's running throughout our body, and hold it in a certain location of our body. Third, we must allow the mana to flow in only on part of your body.

When practicing to control mana, most of us will have difficulty Breathing, an open field with fresh air is the best place to practice this.

Most of the students couldn't handle such pressure and gave up halfway, due to this our break started early.

I sat on my chair, wearing my glasses, and reading my notes. A girl approached me.

She had blonde hair which looked golden when seen under sun and dark brown eyes. She must be from a foreign country, I thought.

"Hi?" I greeted with confusion.

"...hello, I-I am Sarah, it's nice to meet you." She stuttered, as she slowly moved her hand forward for a hand shake.

"Nice to meet you too." Replied Aurelia and slightly smiled while greeting Sarah.

"C-can I sit beside you?" Asked Sarah.

"Sure, go ahead."

She must a new student, and she is pretty introverted... Thought Aurelia.

Aurelia who was looking outside the window, saw a flock of birds flying in sky.

*Sigh.*

"Isn't the world boring?" Asked Aurelia.

Sarah who heard her, started looking around, as if she was searching for something or someone, doubtingly asked "Are you talking to me?"

"Yes, then who else?" Questioned Aurelia.

"Y-yes, it is boring..." Replied Sarah with a nervous tone, the atmosphere became a bit awkward. When their eyes locked, Sarah quickly turned back acting as if they never talked.

"Eh?!" Aurelia was confused by this reaction and went back to reading her notes.
