Mwana knew he couldn’t compete with Uchoyo in a head on fight. This was because the only defensive abilities that allowed him to fight Uchoyo could only be activated when he stayed still and did not take action like when he was punched in the back. Otherwise, it was impossible for Mwana to use the [Golden Statue technique] or [Millennium Wood technique] to enhance one’s fists while fighting. Using these abilities at Mwana’s current mastery was like a tortoise hiding in a tortoise shell.

Additionally, each level of martial training had its own unique ability. Those at the Entry Level tempered their flesh and because of that, their flesh could absorb and store energy making it more shock absorbent and increase resilient. This was especially important as further training in subsequent body forging realms was a rather arduous and violent process.

Warriors at the second level, the Muscle Strengthening and Quenching, could channel energy through muscles to increase strength to ridiculous degrees.

As for warriors at the Skin Hardening realm like Mwana, they could add a thin film of energy around, above and beneath the skin for better defense. By practicing the Solar Light Turn of the Solar Divine Canon, this defensive film came in the form of a golden light radiating from the skin. At higher mastery, one could master the Golden Statue technique which was mandatory for all children at the Academy to practice. This technique was categorized as a body tempering technique with 3 levels: [Bronze, Silver, and Gold]. It tempered the entire body so that each cell was denser and more powerful.

The practitioner’s skin would give off a golden luster at the Gold level. At the Apex of the technique, one could even form a [Golden Light Shield] around one's body. If a warrior went further and understood the Concept behind the technique, this shield would have many forms like a shell, armor, inter-layered shields, scales, and more depending on the warrior’s specialization. There were even warriors who achieved high comprehension of this technique reaching the Image Level where a golden armored statue appeared around the practitioner.

Looking at all the capabilities of Skin Hardening warriors, it was obvious that Bone Forging warriors like Uchoyo had their own strengths. The first was that they could fill their bones with energy making them more durable. Not only that, they could also manipulated their bones in strange ways such as lengthening or shortening them, making their bones flexible, enriching the bone marrow to increase blood flow among other new abilities. One of these abilities was the Bone Piercing Fist which made their bones radiate a sharp aura.

It is this very technique that Uchoyo landed on Mwana's shoulder. Although the technique only grazed Mwana, it caused him unimaginable pain. However Mwana powered through it and slipped behind his opponent before grabbing him around the waist and dropping him backwards. Uchoyo was frustrated as once again he was on the ground.

He launched a backward elbow to Mwana’s stomach which had Mwana reeling but he did not retreat. Instead Mwana charged up his palm and landed a heavy palm to the Uchoyo's head. This was the [Rushing Thunder Charge]! The blow landed with crackling noises pushing half of Uchoyo’s head into the ground and almost knocking him out as the electric current ran through his head and brain causing his body to twitch endlessly.

The way he was twitching made him look like a scarecrow dancing in the wind and the spectators couldn’t help but laugh. Uchoyo, hearing the laughter, wanted to retaliate but his body was basically incapacitated by Mwana’s technique.

Just like the [Delayed Thunder Charge] Mwana had used to explode gum in Uchoyo’s mouth earlier in the morning, the [Rushing Thunder Charge] required a warrior to have great accomplishments in the [Lunar Thunder Route] of the Lunar Divine Canon granting users electromagnetic capabilities. The [Solar and Lunar Divine Canon] had 10 turns and routes each with a set of unique arts. These routes and turns were: Solar Fire, Solar Light, Solar Wind, Solar Flare, Lunar Water, Lunar Earth, Lunar Darkness, Lunar Mirror Light, Lunar Thunder and Lunar Cold Wind.

“Ding dong ding dong.”

It was the sound of the school bell!

On hearing it, all the little children fighting or watching on the field ran to class. Their faces seemed filled with fear. “Shit, we were so busy playing and fighting we lost track of time!”

“Teacher Bine will kill us! I know he is definitely waiting at the gate to whoop us.”

Uchoyo on the other hand was left all alone on the playing field looking up to the sky while questioning his life.
