Martial artist essence's

below is the chi's he may channel in a simplified version, the strengths are what he grows in, the additional are additional effects he may trigger, and the term is something he must follow or the chi he uses for that style is blocked and sealed away for the day. As for the levels, level ones are the style's just past basic where they are at his level yet not a strain to use, currently he may mix no style's and to switch styles he must take meditation pose for one second to switch chi essence's used (this makes it so he cannot switch in mid combat and if he does right in front of the enemy he is open for attack). Level twos are the more advanced ones and those are a strain to use therefore he may not use those as long as the level ones and currently is a struggle to remain in.
