What is Martial Arts, really? A fancy display or a killing art?
Is the martial art, honed through three thousand years of cold weapon warfare and countless private duels, truly authentic or just a grand illusion?
“To stop conflict is to embody martial virtue. Strike only to the point of resolution.”
“What will you do if you are invincible?”
“Show mercy wherever mercy is due.”
