Of course, you chose quite rationally to pick the weapon you're the most trained with, coupled with training said weapon a bit more, keeping your Feather Twirling Bo(w) hidden as a trump for now. This was easily, and objectively, <span class="mu-s">the best decision you could take</span>.
Ryota wants maximise chances of the stronger disciples in each age group. All of you are invited to show your technique behind close door.
"<span class="mu-s">Ah, Quiet Word. I made sure you wouldn't meet Dhundan before finals this time.
What is your strategy this year?</span>
- Using the spear style taught from the Wolf Master at the Tamers of Thousand Beasts Conclave.
- <span class="mu-s">Good. Show me.</span>"
You display the practice routine of the style you appropriated.
"<span class="mu-s">Good. It's a step behind your current cultivation, but except Dhundan, I'll be surprised to see that amount of skill and mastery matched.
Any Fighting Technique you discovered?</span>
- Three of them. One allows a double strike, another let me retaliate when suffering a blow, a third one let me turned spill blood in a summon.
All are ill-suited to the ruleset of the tournament.
- <span class="mu-s">For this few days, you'll train with Deer Master and Marten Master. They'll provide specific pointers.</span>"
The deer master is on the older side, a strong woodland man wielding a spear shining with a faint silvery light. He have valuable insight regarding your posture and your strikes.
"<span class="mu-g"><span class="mu-s">The spear's shaft is supple like a tail, its head is pointy as an antler but also cuts like a sharp incisor - you might turn a missed hit into a scoring one by pulling your weapon back, slashing the opponent!</span></span>"
