D Correct answer
Explanation

Parashurama, the axe-wielding Brahmin warrior, was Karna's guru. After Karna was rejected by Drona (who only taught Kshatriyas and Brahmins), he approached Parashurama and lied about his caste to learn warfare. Parashurama taught him the use of the Brahmastra and other divine weapons. When the truth was discovered, Parashurama cursed Karna.
