The Martial Unity

The goal of his spar with Squire Kyrie was to verify whether the Mind Palace could serve as solution to make the application of the VOID algorithm viable. And now that he had acquired what he wanted, he left the sparring facility.

He had zero interest in fighting any of the Martial Apprentices of the Academy, they were simply far too weak to be able to even stand up to him. At this point only Nel and Fae could give him a challenge and only Kane had any real chance of defeating him because of the two grade-ten techniques he had mastered.

At this point, he needed to build experience with his current Martial Art.

At this point in time, he had twenty-three techniques in his Martial Art, furthermore with the Mind Palace technique, the way he went about the VOID algorithm had completely changed. He would be changing a very fundamental way of his combat style and he needed to build experience around it in a variety of situations.

"Missions it is." He mused.

The safe and controlled environment and atmosphere of the Martial Academy no longer provided him with any stimulation. The lack of stakes made it a very dull atmosphere to him, making it hard to draw any real tension from him. That along with the fact that almost none of his peers were his equals anymore made staying the Martial Academy lose its allure to him.

('Honestly, there isn't too much point in staying anymore.') He had reached a stage where he was more than ready to be able to sustain himself independently, if needed. He also didn't want to incur a greater debt with the Academy than he already had.

He hadn't forgotten about the debt scholarship he had undertaken when he joined the Academy. The Martial Academy was expensive. It provided him with housing accommodations and other necessities as well as expensive learning and growing resources, as well as combat resources.
