 He's thinking about the method to withstand it, he remembers his spear teacher saying, "If you met an opponent stronger than you? And he attack you multiple times and you just blocking but you can't hold on anymore, What will you do?" the little Li long said, "Fight him to death!"

 The teacher knock his head and said, "Idiot! if you're bombarded by techniques you need to do is parry him, by what? it can be the environment, it can be the footing, you can dodge, or else, always remember to think ahead of what will you going to do, make a series of techniques that he can't retaliate"
