Rui's emotions fluctuated immensely throughout the entire battle. When Senior Ceeran and the matriarch of the K'ulnen Tribe began showing their true strength at the start fight, he had been shocked by the true capabilities of both Martial Artists. Not only was their raw prowess incredible, but their techniques were very interesting as well.

The matriarch employed the same principles that rockets did to achieve extreme acceleration. Except unlike rockets, she could apply that speed in all avenues in combat while rockets accelerated in linear motion exclusively.

This allowed her to dart across the battlefield at blinding speeds. Frankly, if not for the giant infernos she left behind with every step, Rui would have had absolutely no chance of tracing her movements and trajectories.

However, while her technique was a novel and extreme application of Newton's third law of motion, it was elementary at heart. Senior Ceeran's techniques thus far held far more of his interest than hers. Senior Ceeran employed the tendency of the gaseous particles to move from high-pressure areas to low-pressure areas.

('It's an advanced application of the Pauli Exclusion Principle,') Rui noted.

The Pauli Exclusion was a principle of quantum electrodynamics that stated no two electrons of an atom or molecule could have the same quantum numbers and states. In a general context, the principle stated that two particles could not have the same positions and velocities, and the closer one of the two parameters was, the greater the difference in the other parameter.

This principle of quantum mechanics was the reason that densely packed particles experienced a strong repulsion from each other. It was the reason that the atmosphere functioned the way it did, and it was the driving force behind Senior Ceeran's techniques.

('He densely packs particles together in his lungs, and when he exhales them, he uses breathing techniques to manipulate his high-pressure breath which alters the directions of the wind currents that they produce from his high-pressure breath to low-pressure areas.') Rui analyzed. ('Means he doesn't directly control the wind currents themselves, he controls their starting point; his high-pressure breath, and the ending point; the low-pressure areas and vacuums. This allows him to manipulate the trajectories of the attack even after he has launched them!')

Rui couldn't help but marvel at the ingenuity of the technique. It was quite remarkable and gave a genuinely high amount of flexibility and efficiency with his attacks. Unlike Rui's, his attacks were not dealt with when successfully evaded once. He could keep reusing them even after they filled to hit their target. Of course, their potency greatly decreased with time until they fizzled out, but it made his offense extremely efficient compared to more generic Martial Paths and Martial Art.

('It's definitely one of the reasons that he's able to keep up with two clearly experienced and veteran Martial Seniors of the K'ulnen Tribe simultaneously,') Rui noted.

Because he was able to save a lot of power due to this technique against the matriarch who was forced to waste energy evading the same reused attacks over and over, Senior Ceeran still had enough power left to also overwhelm the patriarch of the K'ulnen Tribe simultaneously.

This was a feat that was extremely impressive to Rui. The patriarch of the K'ulnen Tribe was a mountain in human form. The man made the Martial Squire that Rui fought look like a little girl, in comparison.

His abdominal and back muscles, the muscle sets that comprised his core, were especially quite formidable. Each of his charges was as heavy as meteorite impacts, and yet Senior Ceeran managed to push him back.

The battle's dynamics had changed once the third Marital Senior had joined the battle, yet they once more fell into a pattern and a paradigm.

Senior Ceeran was much more concerned with the patriarch of the K'ulnen Tribe than he was with the matriarch. There were several reasons for this.

Firstly, the matriarch was already wounded. And while she did possess a resilient body by virtue of being a Martial Senior, her affinities did not lie towards endurance, thus it was inevitable that her combat prowess had taken a solid hit. Even when she was healthy, Senior Ceeran was capable of taking her down swiftly even when holding back, but in her current state, it was safe to say that the patriarch of the K'ulnen Tribe forcing Senior Ceeran to dedicate a significant chunk of his power to handle his offense was the only reason that she was able to fight against Senior Ceeran without dying.

Senior Ceeran had to divide his attention between both his opponents, and Rui could sense that balancing them was not easy.

Handling the matriarch was more complicated since he needed to make sure that he never left a chink in his waves of attacks that could allow her to hurt him. But she was less of a threat due to her injuries, and hence he could afford to use less energy in her direction.

The patriarch of the K'ulnen Tribe was extremely simple in comparison. His attack consisted of charging at Senior Ceeran as hard as he could hoping to land a powerful strike on the man. Although he had much greater raw power than his partner, Senior Ceeran didn't need to think m

He only needed to ensure that he was using a marginally greater amount of power than his opponent to ensure that there was no way that he could possibly get through.

The one that was more dangerous and powerful, at the moment, requires more raw power but less thought to handle. The one that was less dangerous to her injuries required more thought and less raw power to handle.

Senior Ceeran needed to balance both in order to ensure that he was not overwhelmed by either one of them.

('However, I don't know if he can win this way...') Rui frowned.

At the end of the day, Rui was not sure whether he possessed greater stamina than the two Martial Seniors combined. While he was able to stalemate the battle for now, it was quite questionable whether he would be able to do the same for an extended period of time.
