A shadow crosses over you from behind. When you look back, Brawler拳斗者 is standing there with a rather distant look in his eyes. He cracks his knuckles in one long staccato before asking if he can train up Trainee. You ask why. The brawler looks down at you.
"Because he is weak."
Hmmm, good enough.

Brawler拳斗者 and Trainee are found in a mudpit with their hands wrapped in cloth and leaves, padding for the knuckles and to keep them from cutting one another with every punch. The brawler has his trainee bouncing counter-clockwise along the ring of the fighting circle, punching the air as he goes, and with his trainer hitting or kicking him every time he passes by. The men glisten with sweat as they work. When Trainee begins to slow, Brawler拳斗者 hits him as though a jockey would a sluggish horse.
After an hour of this, Brawler拳斗者 steps back and invites his trainee to attack him. Predictably, the assault is aimless and pitiful. Long, looping punches are thrown with no energy behind them. The brawler ducks and weaves out of the way, punching every attempted strike with a counter-punch of his own.
"See what happens when you are tired? This is why we must train. Even the most able and deadly are worth nothing without air in their lungs and fresh legs beneath them."

The brawler has Trainee stand completely still. He circles about the man, cracking his knuckles as he sizes him up. Finally, he lets his intentions be known.
"I am going to beat you until you break."
A moment is given to the trainee to acknowledge what is about to happen. He sucks in a great gulp of breath and then nods. Brawler拳斗者 wastes no time wheeling a bola punch right into the man's chest. He bowls over at which point he is kicked in the shoulder repeatedly until he stands back up.
There the brawler continues to circle and deliver blows. Not every strike is thrown with conviction: most are meant to inflict pain, but not what could be called irreversible damage. The brawler, if he wanted to, could kill this man with his bare fists, but that is not the purpose of this training. You realize that this mode of 'toughening up' probably happened to the brawler himself at some point or another.

Brawler拳斗者 the heavy-handed-rough-and-tumble brawler is found leaning over, his arms fenced out before himself in a defensive posture, and Trainee is standing adjacent, trying to mimic the stance. The brawler drops his body low and shoots in under Trainee's arms, there wrapping both hands around the man's waist and lifting him up in the air before dumping him on his back. Brawler拳斗者 steps away, cracking his knuckles and telling Trainee to get up.
"You need to be ready for two things: me coming in low, and me coming in high."
Trainee dusts himself off then complains a little.
"How can I possibly do both?"
The brawler ignores the question and simply asks the man to attack him. Trainee obliges, coming in high with a hurled fist. Brawler拳斗者 deflects the blow with a shoulder-roll before throwing a cross-counter that has Trainee spinning on his feet. The fist-fighter cracks his knuckles again and spits.
"Practice. That's how. Now get back up and let's go again."
