"Baf, what would you recommend as a merchant?"
"Then, I would recommend you the Martial Training Hall Deluxe."
"How much is the cost?"
Baf replied, "1,000,000, GC"
Xiaobi was shocked, "One Million Game Coins!? That's beyond my budget."
"Whoa! Easy there young fella, hold your horses. Today is a special day, you won't regret it."
"Since it is Christmas, it is the spirit of giving. Today we are giving a 50% off to any purchase item on this day, and on this moment, only today. You hear me right, today! Right now, not tomorrow, and not on the next day. So what do you say, 500,000 GC what do you say, deal or no deal?"
"500,000 GC? that's too much for a blue frame drawing card."
"Waf, why don't you give this ignorant old boomer a demonstration and a tour inside."
[A kid, young fella and now an old boomer, which is it?]
"How much will you give?"
"40 GC"
"I want 50 GC, that's my standard price"
"40 GC, that's all I have."
"50 GC, this guy gave me twice the standard price, and I even recommended you."
"Find" both made an agreement.
*Waf demonstrated how the card works. He threw it on a clear empty ground, once landed on the ground, a building rose out of nowhere. "See, easy right? Well then let's check what's inside."
(*Reference to Doomed to be a king, and Dragon Ball.)
Upon reaching the entrance, Waf explained the layout of the building, and its perk.
"This Hall has three stages, when I say three stages, there are three stories with different fighting type puppets on each floor. On the first floor, an Early Condensation Stage puppet is stationed to guard the first floor. To proceed on the second floor you must defeat the puppet or escape from his clutches or be able to land on the safe area on the opposite side to where we are standing. You see these red horizontal lines here on the ground of the entrance. This is the border between the safe area and the area of attack, next to the attack range area of the puppet is also a safe area with a horizontal red line at the rear to this room . If you cross the entrance of this red horizontal line, the puppet will attack you, without giving you time to prepare or any warning. So it's best to prepare and be ready yourself in the safe zone before you engage or step at the area of effect/ range where the puppet could attack you."
"Once you step at the end of the safe zone, you just have to click the red button that is on a 4 feet, 12 by 12 inch pillar standing at the middle of the corner. Upon clicking it, you'll be teleported to the next floor.
"By the way, the floor, ceiling, wall, etc., are made of Maple wood, what do you think of the texture of the floor? Smooth right? The best part of this martial training hall is the wood material made by the puppet in this hall, the puppet is made from an enhanced Mahogany tree, in other words it is a magical tree. Why don't you give it a try, instead of explaining it to you word by word."
"Is it alright for me to give it a try, I'm still not certain if I'm planning to buy this Martial training Hall, besides I might destroy this puppet.?"
"Why are you hesitant? It's not like you will say no after experiencing it first hand. Moreover, I am more worried about your body, instead of the puppet."
"Go!" Waf pushed Xiaobi without his consent, beyond the horizontal red line, which is the area of range where the puppet attacked.
The puppet's eye glowed red, it suddenly, shove a strong straight momentous palm attack aiming at his right shoulder, Xioabi was able to deflect the palm attack reflexively by using his arms to defend himself from the heavy blow. The attack didn't stop, it continuously attacked without hesitation and remorse. Xiaobi can't do anything, but to passively defend his upper body from the relentless bombarded momentum of heavy blows delivered by the thrust palm. "Urggh" Xiaobi can feel his skin start to lacerate on his arms." "I can't believe, a Middle Stage of Qi Condensation like me would be suppressed by an Early Qi Condensation Realm puppet."
"It's attack pattern is obvious to the point, that I can tell it's next move, however, there is nothing I can do, to counter attack its rain of momentous uniform barrage of of attacks, directly aim to one spot." Both Xiaobi's arm are ready to let go, but he can't if he does, he will be vulnerable to incoming multiple palm attack.
Waf made a remark, " Your cultivation level isn't lacking at all, what you lack is experience fighting an opponent that doesn't get tired, second of all your defense stance is quite shabby and way too naive. Your body is firm and strong, too bad it didn't undergo any sort of hardship, like an iron being pounded by a hammer a thousand times, if not. Your skin wouldn't lacerate in a short period of time."
Xiaobi executes a qigong to get away from the range of barrage of attacks, "Hundred Mile Dash" as he steps back in an instant like a lightning bolt. Xioabi steps foot back at the safe zone of the entrance, as he retreats.
"What do you think, worth your purchase right?"
"Do all martial art cultivators fight like that?"
Waf replied to Xiaobi's question, " Not really, that was just a simple attack without any tactic or a no brainer move. If it is an experienced martial art cultivator, then he would probably execute a one shot martial art technique to stop it's movement before it can land an attack, decapitate its arms and legs to make it immobile, or probably the fastest way to end the fight would be aim to its core for it to stop functioning."
