Amid this blood-soaked slaughter, some know the songs of the imperial court and the upheavals of the martial world; some understand the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, as well as the mysteries of the Eight Gates and Six Divisions; and others possess extraordinary talents and abilities, seeking to know all that happens under heaven.
