Yeah, but is romance even a priority for somebody attempting to overcome all human limitation?  Plus, removing all professional boundaries between two individuals who can theoretically level mountains can surely only lead to heartbreak/death/civil war.

We should proceed, but be careful about it, I think.

Have the Steelhearts and Copperfeet continue their training at the cave, send our disciple Zhang Wei on a quest of her own, tell her to remember the values of fortitude and struggle, and to seek out the strongest opponents the world has to offer.  Our Ironstrider will continue to train like hell at the cave.

I think it'd be a good idea to sharpen our own technique, or else our disciple will very quickly overtake us. 

+1 to this. -1 to romancing our pupil. As much as I want a yuri martial arts story, it can only end badly, and our Ironstrider sect is too young to survive without two of its most powerful Ironstiders.

I just realised that what we're doing is basically what Luke Skywalker was doing

Luke Skywalker was wearing a loincloth? When? Is it a deleted scene from Jabba's palace?

Train your students to make contact with a loincloth spirit of their own. Each student must find their own path to this union. Because if they all get identical loincloths then they will be victims of the ninjitsu conservation theorem.

+1 Also, +1 to getting a little bow-chicka-wah-wah with our pupil. I'm in the mood for yuri.

Niggah what? Conversation?

Anyway, speaking of Luke Skywalker, it appears we're doing what he was doing in Episode 7's backstory.

Edit: Just googled it. Basically, fighters have access to a limited number of tricks and illusions. The more goons you have on one side, the less tricks you can pull off. This makes a lone ninja's tricks deadly since they have access to the highest number of 'em. Quality versus quantity, in a nutshell. Want more ninjas? Powerlevels are low. Want less ninjas? Powerlevels over nine-thousaaaaand!

You never wanted to date your science teacher probably becuase she dident teach topless unlike our character who literally only wears a loincloth.

I just remembered we only have a loincloth. Can someone explain the "spirit" aspect of the cloth?

It is our condensed spirit or a manifestation of it.

No, the students should make their own decision about spirit condensing...

-1 to any romances with our Pupil, once we have mastered the Divine God Bronze Layer there will be more than enough time for romance. Besides, Zhang Wei used to be a Drunk Fool, do we really want to start a romance with her? And, If she becomes offended the consequences could be disastrous for us.

We should send Zhang Wei into the wilderness on an epic Quest to fight the strongest foes the Holstice Kingdom has to offer, coming back to us after 9 Years of Questing, or after she has slain 5,000 foes. With luck, her exploits will increase our reputation and by the time she comes back we'll be much stronger, and we'll have mastered Soul Fusion. If Zhang Wei dies then so what, she was the best out of only 48 Drunk Fools, we can find someone else just as talented if we need to.

Right now our Sect is very tiny, considering that it has only 9 members, 3 of which are still only Copperfeet. I have a plan to increase our fame, and recruit more Disciples.

Zhao Li should go to the nearest large city, preferably one where there aren't very many sects already, and go to the roughest bar there. Once he's there, Zhao Li should loudly announce that the Bronze God's Bod Technique has made him invincible and challenge anyone there to strike him as hard as they can. After a few of them try, and fail to harm Zhao Li he should tell them that if they wish to gain this power, Zhao Li will teach them the Technique in exchange for them joining our Sect. We should tell them about the intense training and high death rate to begin with, in order to weed out the cowards and weaklings among any would-be disciples. Zhao Li should repeat this several times until we've gathered around 40 or so Drunk Fools. Then we should take all of them back to our Armpit Shrine Cavern.

Once the Drunk Fools are back at the Shrine the Steelhearts will train them like Zhao Li did them, Since the Steelhearts are busy training new Disciples they won't have time to train themselves, allowing us to keep on top of things. To increase their loyalty to one another the Sect should be required to spend 2 hours every day meditating together.

Zhoa Li should go around the area near our Armpit Shrine and ask the people of any nearby villages about their troubles, if they complain about bandits or violent beasts Zhao Li should slay them, increasing our Reputation. If they complain about another Sect we should investigate further before acting. After Zhao Li has helped out a few villages he should tell them that the Ironstrider Sect will continue to protect them as long as they supply us with their surplus crops and a tenth of their villages yearly currency income.
