"That fight was so cool. I never knew spears could do that kind of stuff."
Mary's face was still full of excitement as they began heading out of the arena.
"Well, everyone can do that kind of stuff when you get the right teacher to teach you about it," Luqing replied.
"Really?"
"Yes, really. It doesn't require you to learn Qi, either. All it takes is training your body to perfection."

"What do you mean training?" Alex curiously asked.
"Training through a teacher who has mastered the craft of the spear, and they could apply a layer of Qi to you instead.

"Are there any drawbacks?" Sophia asked as they walked back out onto the streets.
"Yes, of course... The Qi can't last forever. It usually runs out once you use all of it."
"Make sense... Where are we going right now?"
