While practicing, this set requires the boxing comes out and draws back in one straight line, and you can practice it at a very small place. In close fighting it can greatly exert its power. its forms are strange and unusual and its power is very fierce, so it is hard for the opponent to learn its posture, and it makes him a loss and does not know what to do.
