The Martial Unity

"Take your stances." The referee instructed.

Surman Marliak took a strange stance. He lifted his left leg, positioning his left foot at right knee. One arm was raised over his head while the other was raised towards Rui.

Rui wasn't sure what to make of this stance. It looked strange and silly, but the fact that Rui didn't understand the significance and reason for it simply meant his understanding of mental techniques was limited. He had tried to do some research, but he was limited.

In the face of the unknown, he simply chose a simple neutral stance while activating pushing his sensory techniques to their limit.

"Begin!" The supervisor declared!

WHOOSH

Surman Marliak disappeared in everyone's eye, drawing a gasp from the crowd.

POW

He appeared next to Rui throwing a powerful strike, but to his surprise Rui had managed to block him easily.

POW!

Surman retreated in surprise. He didn't expect his misdirection to fail so spectacularly. What he didn't know was that Rui was able to see through misdirection far greater than what he had used. After all, Rui had been able to detect Kane's position despite the Void Step technique; A technique with grade ten potency and difficulty.

Rui chased after him, refusing to let him go too easily. Surman paused at the sight, taking his strange stance yet again, he moved his arms legs in slow wavy patterns even as Rui approached him. It was then, Rui's eyes flew wide open as he suddenly Surman Marliak's figure cloned into two!

Suddenly he saw two Surman Marliaks!
