*Cheong Myeong watched her movements as he put his stick forward to block. But he seemingly fell for the feint, however with the next attack he made up for it immediately jumping over her. He was upside down mid-air while he thrusted the stick down upon her 3 more times as well. Containing the same amount of power from before. The pink qi kept it coat on the stick protecting it the entire time.*

*She stumbled yet again as she was hit annoyed with herself as she shook her head*

"Mmm... So annoying, I will beat you!"

*She waited this time holding her axe now*
Ralph
"You can try as much as you want"

*The man said this as he began to walk towards her, the stick pointed down. His aura began to slowly grow larger and larger. As he released 50% of his qi, the pink coat of the sword grew fiercer and denser with the qi*

"Receive this Senior's attack"

*Cheong Myeong disappeared from his spot, then appeared to swing the stick at her torso. However mid-swing, he changed the direction and moved the stick upwards to hit the axe out of her hand, then swung twice horizontally aimed at her torso. The power of which would be enough to fracture a rib with both attacks*
Robert
*She swung her axe downwards and suddenly it was hit out of her grasp! She took a step back taking a hit and wincing and using her claw to block the other hit*

"Grr... Mm... So what is your plan we keep going until I'm broken?!...I don't Understand."

*She rolled her eyes before wincing at the pain of her rib again, slashing at him with her claw*
Ralph
*Cheong Myeong shook his head and stopped the claw by bringing his hand up*

"We will stop until you realize you can't destroy the indestructible wall before you"

*Cheong Myeong said this as his eyes were glowing a bright and neon pink. The qi within him pulsated within his eyes. He stared into Raizen's eyes, if she were to look, what she would see a larger version of himself looming over her*

"Understand that at your current state, protecting him will be difficult and quite dangerous. You need to get stronger first"
Robert
"...So this is your way of saying I can't be by his side, and if I want a chance at that I have to go and become stronger."

*She rolled her eyes as she sighed*

"...I'm already strong u don't understand, if I'm not strong enough can't you just help me?"
Ralph
"You're not strong, because there are always those who are stronger. Only they deserve to be called the strong. And why should I help you?"

*The man asked as there wasn't necessarily any reason for him to help her more than he already has. She hadn't returned his kindness and instead had even went behind his back. There was no reason at this moment*

"If you say it is for the sake of my disciple that's not enough."
Robert
"...Because I want to be by the side of your disciple that may seem selfish of me... W-well that's because it is, I want to be there with him! If he doesn't want me there then fine but I want to be there!"

*She looked to cheong*
Ralph
"If that is all you wish, then there is no reason for me to help you. I only teach those who are willing to live the same life I do and are willing to better themselves as individuals."

*Cheong Myeong shook his head, perhaps turning her away was quite crude of him. However, he refuses to teach those unless they're willing to show true sincerity and devote their lives to Taoism*
