Finally, they reached the steps of the Renewal Temple, its towering walls and ornate gates looming before them. Dexter took a deep breath and stepped forward, his hand on the hilt of his sword.

"Are you ready for this, Amy?" he asked, turning to her with a serious expression.

Amy nodded, her eyes blazing with determination. "I'm ready. Let's do this."

Together, they stepped forward, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead in their quest to find the Lost scroll and protect the multiverse from Morpho Eggman's evil plans.

The Lost scroll hold the secret of Lost Crystal of Power. Lost Crystal of Power had infinite amount of power. It can manipulate time and space. It was a crystal that protect the existence of multiverse in verge of disaster. But if used in the wrong hand, not only can it shatter civilizations, the power within Lost crystal of power can destroy realms of multiverse.

In order to gain Lost Crystal of Power, one must go through Sonic Boom world where the secret of the crystal was remained tight inside Renewal Temple in Central Blossom Island, eastern coastal province of Chunnan.

Dexter led the way through the stairs, his heart pounding with nervousness. As they walked, he explained to Amy the gravity of his situation and the importance of his family's legacy.

"My grandmother was the last princess of the Fu dynasty", he said, "and she entrusted me with a secret stamp that only the princesses know. With this stamp, I can gain access to the scroll that will help us save the Sonic multiverse."

Amy nodded in understanding, impressed by the weight of Dexter's mission. "And how did you get in contact with Master Huang?" she asked.

Dexter paused, reaching into his pocket to retrieve a small slip of paper. "I have this permit," he said, holding it up for Amy to see. "It was given to me by my grandmother, who was a former student of Master Huang. It grants us access to Renewal Temple and the scroll we need."

Amy nodded in approval, and they continued on their way. As they approached the temple, Dexter's nerves began to rise once again. He knew that Master Huang was a strict and demanding teacher, and he didn't want to disappoint her.

Amy and Dexter stood outside the entrance to Renewal Temple, their hearts pounding with a mix of excitement and nervousness. The temple's grand wooden doors loomed before them, adorned with intricate carvings and symbols. They exchanged a brief glance, finding reassurance in each other's presence, before Dexter took a deep breath and stepped forward. Amy followed closely behind, ready to support him.

As they entered the temple, the scent of incense filled the air, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and reverence. The interior was adorned with beautiful artwork and ornate decorations, reflecting the rich history and tradition of the temple. They made their way through the peaceful halls, guided by the soft glow of lanterns.

Finally, they reached the main hall where Master Huang awaited. She sat on a cushioned mat, her gaze focused and serene. Dexter approached her with a deep bow, showing respect for the esteemed shifu. Amy mirrored his gesture, her eyes filled with admiration.

"Master Huang," Dexter began, his voice steady but filled with reverence. "I am Dexter, the grandson of the last princess of the Fu dynasty. I have come to seek your guidance and your help in saving the Sonic multiverse."

Master Huang looked at him with wise eyes, her presence emanating a sense of wisdom and inner strength. She remained silent for a moment, assessing Dexter's sincerity and determination.

"You carry the bloodline of the Fu dynasty," she finally spoke, her voice calm yet commanding. "But blood alone does not determine one's worth. Tell me, young one, what is your purpose in seeking the Lost Crystal of Power?"

Dexter took a deep breath, gathering his thoughts. "Master Huang, the Lost Crystal of Power holds the key to maintaining the balance of the multiverse. It possesses the ability to protect and preserve dimensions from those who seek to exploit its power. I have witnessed the devastation brought by tyrants and oppressive forces. My purpose is to prevent further destruction and ensure a future of harmony and justice."

Master Huang nodded, her expression showing a glimmer of approval. "Your words carry weight, young Dexter. But the path to obtaining the scroll and unlocking the secrets of the Lost Crystal of Power is not an easy one. It requires dedication, discipline, and the earning of trust. Are you willing to undertake this journey?"

Dexter met her gaze with determination in his eyes. "I am, Master Huang. I am ready to face any challenge, to prove my worth, and to safeguard the multiverse."

Amy stepped forward, her voice filled with conviction. "Dexter is strong-willed and driven, Master Huang. I have witnessed his determination and his commitment to the greater good. He seeks to protect all those who are in need, even at the cost of his own desires."

Master Huang's gaze shifted to Amy, studying her for a moment. "And who are you, young one?"

Amy straightened her posture, her voice unwavering. "I am Amy Rose, a loyal friend and ally to Dexter. I stand by his side, supporting his mission and striving for the same goals. Together, we can achieve great things."

Master Huang's lips curled into a slight smile. "Very well, Dexter and Amy. If you are willing to walk the path, I shall guide you. But know this, the journey ahead is arduous, and the secrets you seek are guarded with purpose. It will require strength, both physical and spiritual. Are you prepared?"

Dexter and Amy exchanged a determined glance, their resolve unyielding. "We are, Master Huang," they replied in unison.

And so, their journey under the guidance of Master Huang began, as they embarked on a path filled with challenges, self-discovery, and the pursuit of a greater purpose. Little did they know that their encounters and experiences would shape them in ways they could not yet fathom, forging their destinies in the face of adversity.
