Martial arts techniques and fighting styles had nothing to do with the determination of one's martial arts level. The martial technique determines the way your power manifests in each martial stage.
According to the file sent to Lucius, the first stage is called aura attunement. The name wasn't impressive, but as Lucius began reading deeper, his opinion of it began to change.
Aura attunement is the ability to harmonize one's presence with a martial technique. When a person's aura is successfully attuned, it grants the martial artist a distinctive presence that influences everyone around them.
A martial artist who has achieved this level of mastery is better off than a martial artist solely focusing on improving his martial arts technique.
