If you are doing this well into WoD, you might find the progression sticking on you. After reading the comments here, I found that moving around during the fight - even if it's normally a one- or two-hit kill for you - will keep the sequence of tests moving along properly. Pace your blows by the dialogue going on between the northerners, Pandaren, and Xuen.

For this quest you must complete three tests, each involving the killing of a spirit:

Test One: Spirit of Violence - Casts "Sha Corruption", creating a deadly cloud wherever you are standing. Make sure you are moving when it finishes casting so you are out of the way.

Test Two: Spirit of Anger - Along with the previous spell, it casts "Devastation", creating bubbles all around your initial position. Move out of the way immediately to make sure you are not caught in it.

Test Three: Spirit of Hate - Along with the previous two spells, it casts "Whirlwind of Anger". It takes a few seconds for him to warm up so make sure to move as far away from him as possible so that when he begins coming after you, you are out of range of his blades.

Remember those simple rules and you should be able to pass the tests with no problem. Get caught in any of those attacks and you will likely lose 1/3 to 1/2 of your health very quickly.

P.S. If there are others doing the quest at the same time, make sure to move away from them. The spirit will follow you and you will then be sure of not getting caught up in the attacks of someone else's spirit.

On the last part, the Sha of Hatred, be careful if you're kiting the mob around the room like I was. Apparently if you get too far from the center of the room, the mob runs back towards the center and disappears. This happened to me twice, but you can restart just that phase by talking to the tiger again.

Description

Nobody is allowed into the Vale without the approval of the August Celestials. Xuen, The White Tiger, appears ready to listen to me. But Taran Zhu of the Shado-Pan is reluctant to let the Alliance or Horde anywhere NEAR the Vale after all that's happened. <Anduin shakes his head.> Maybe you can help me make my case. Speak to the White Tiger on our behalf. Be careful! He may set a number of challenges before you...

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Fisherman's TaleKun-Lai Summit · Level 20-35

    The villagers of Zouchin know the coast better than anyone in Kun-Lai. If the Zandalari are hiding on one of the islands, they will know. Mishi will take you as far as Emperor's Path. I will go ahead to speak with the village elders. Follow the path to Whispercloud Rise.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • It Takes A VillageKun-Lai Summit · Level 20-35

    The villagers have been guarding Zouchin since the first attack. They are exhausted and many are injured. If the Zandalari attack again the last thing we need is for the defenders to fall asleep on the job. Relieve them of their posts so that they might have time to heal and see their families.
