"Hmm...all right. Sorry, didn't mean to pry. So, about the battle plan against him in particular."
"Yeah?" We were nearing the sparring courts by now.
"How about I deal with the controlled flunkies he's gathered by the time we see him, and you fight him directly?"
"That's exactly what I was going to suggest," he said, nodding, and even smiling a little, "if we go one on one for training and things like that, I usually win, even without using Hundred Darkness Fists."
"Sounds perfect, then." Don't get greedy. Just use the magic rock thingy on the guy like the mission parameters say. I can investigate this secret sub level thing when I'm a good bit stronger.
Du Wuhan and I sparred first, testing each other for a good five minutes. "You really are a top talent," he said at the end, "you've advanced a full Realm way too fast, and even then you're way too much stronger even for just one Realm."
