First Revolution
It might sound insane at first to use three Qi Techniques at once, but the more Ryu thought about it, the more feasible it became. The first reason he thought this might be possible was because all three of these techniques were known to be 'Neutral Qi' techniques. This meant that the qi absorbed didn't have any particular affinity or leaning.
Knowing it had this short coming, those three techniques suggested that its user pair its use with techniques that did have this sort of leaning. This was what lit a light bulb for Ryu, he suddenly understood that it wasn't impossible to use multiple Qi Techniques at once as long as they didn't interfere with one another. For example, using a Yin and Yang type technique was almost surely suicide, but using a Neutral Type technique alongside would that had a leaning would be just fine.
