Escalate

The latest battle between the Martial Union and the K'ulnen Tribe had reached the ears of all the Martial tribes on Vilun island. The manner in which Rui had downed a promising K'ulnen Martial Artist had impressed many Marital Artists. Some found it to be absurd, while others were shocked. There were some who even wanted to challenge Rui to a fight to test themselves against someone of his caliber.

The battle marked the escalation of the conflict between the Martial Union and the K'ulnen Tribe. Now that not only had the first Squire battle been fought, but Squire blood had also been spilled, the battle would no longer go back to being fought between Martial Apprentices.

Of course, Martial Apprentices would still be involved in the conflict, but their conflict would wrestle around less important avenues and assets of the many reasons that there was friction between the K'ulnen Tribe and the Martial Union.
