As Yin was walking way, though he seemed not to be paying attention, he noted the underhanded comments being made between the group.<span style="font-style: italic">They act like squabbling children. Perhaps I judged them wrong, their minds do not seem fit for disciplined training. Their ego's have inflated their sense of self, they perceive themselves as much more than they really are. These kinds of ego's coupled with the potential power they could muster should not be mixed. However, attitudes can change, people can learn, grow and adapt. There is still a chance for them, if they choose to take it.</span>Yin resolved pensively. Being wrapped up in thought, he hadn't noticed how close they now were to the outskirts of the town. There was no town boundaries or official indicators of the town's beginning or end, only the abrupt incline that lead to the slopes just west of the town square. Yin took a small alleyway that lead him to a dirt track that started up into the hills. He didn't wait for the others, he was confident that they would follow him, for one reason or another.<br/>A healthy crowd still followed them too some of them jeering, ready to see a duel while others simply came to observe the spectacle Yin had incited only moments ago. It didn't take long for the group to reach the top of the hill, when they did Yin saw that the ground was fairly flat, with only gentle slopes here and there.<span style="font-style: italic">To a regular man this ground would be uneven and difficult to maneuver, a perfect place to test the skills of my would-be disciples.</span>Yin thought knowingly. As he concluded his thoughts and found a spot to settle in, Yin turned to address the crowd and the fighters assembled.<br/>"A few of you think you can withstand my methods. And I'll bet a few more of you think you could defeat them. While the rest of you seem to show no respect at all for a master like myself. A symptom of the arrogance of youth, that if not contended becomes the downfall of many great fighters." Yin spoke with wisdom. "Today we will see an example of this. Those of you wishing to prove your worth to me and the people gathered here today, will step forward and face me in combat. To make it fair, I shall face all contenders at once. If you defeat me, then you will prove my legitimacy as a master only a myth and I shall leave your settlement in shame. However, if I'm the one to be victorious, then my legitimacy shall be proven and I will expect to receive the respect the title of master deserves." Yin declared with authority. Upon finishing, he began to unhook his jacket, revealing his near perfectly toned figure underneath.
