RHINOCEROS GAZES AT MOON – Application 2 of 5

To neutralise a cut to the right side of your head or neck with a technique such as “Phoenix Spreads Wings”.

Turn to your left as you let the O’s blade ride on your blade just over your head. Move, whilst keeping the point threatening as usual. If there is any quality of ‘barrier’ in your blade he will feel it and change, which will probably not be to your advantage. Same principles as above.
