The Martial Unity

Rui had plenty to consider on the way back home. He had a huge array of choices to spend his million Martial credits on, and he didn't want to be too hasty.

('I'm not under a tremendous amount of pressure in any regard at the moment.') Rui sighed. ('I can take my time to think it through. Hell, I don't even think it is ideal to spend all of it on one go.')

It was best to keep a smaller proportion in his account as a part of his savings, or he could even give it to the Quarrier Orphanage and allow them to spend it on things that even the income supplied by both Rui and Julian would normally not allow.

('I should prioritize spending the credits on something that will aid my Martial Art and my power.') Rui decided.

Those two were different, albeit very closely related. Progressing his Martial Art made him stronger, but becoming stronger did not necessarily progress his Martial Art. The clearest example of the latter was the perma-augmentation potion that augmented his physicality but did not impact his Martial Art in any way.

Of course, this was not bad, not by any means at all. But Rui would rather have an option that made him stronger by making his Martial Art stronger. But, of course, there was no straightforward way to make progress in your Martial Art, it certainly was not something that could be purchased. No potion boosted one's Martial Art.
