The terms "academic" and "travelling" are often used to define a young trainer's fighting style.

Among them, "academic" refers to a trainer who has inherited the combat skills of the division commander and has a skillful and systematic style of play under the guidance of a mentor with a clear style. Experienced elders will pass on to them exquisite combos and unique self-created moves, so that they can take on weaker opponents even with a fixed set of plays, so that they can grow quickly from the beginning. Most of the trainers who come from the Trainer Cultivation Academy or various schools of dojos can be classified into this category, and most of them have a good family background.

On the other hand, the "traveling faction" relies on their own strength to travel north and south, they do not have a mentor who can pass on their experience, and they rely entirely on their own travel and adventure experience to hone their strength. Their combat effectiveness is uneven, they often take detours, and they will inevitably have bad habits when fighting, and most of them are difficult to compete with the elites cultivated in the academy.

It's often assumed that the academic trainer is better than the traveling one, but that doesn't mean that the traveling one is always the weaker side. Not everyone has the conditions to enter the famous dojo, and not everyone can afford the expensive tuition to enter the trainer training academy or find a strong mentor.

There is no absolute difference between the strengths and weaknesses of the two sides, and each has its own strengths and weaknesses. Academic trainers are proficient in systems and routines, and have complete knowledge reserves, but they often lack sufficient adaptability, and their thinking is often limited to fixed formulas, and once the subtle combat routines are cracked, they may fall into a disadvantage. The style of the traveling trainer is not so "professional", but it has an unexpected nature that is difficult to predict for the academic school who is accustomed to reading books and absorbing knowledge. There is no fixed pattern and complex tactical structure in their battles, and their desire to win is all based on on-the-spot command and tacit understanding honed in actual combat.

Therefore, the academic faction can suppress the traveling faction with exquisite combat routines, and the traveling faction can also disrupt the opponent's combat rhythm and defeat the academic faction with a free-spirited style of play.

By the time trainers get their professional certifications, most of them have honed their unique fighting habits and styles. At this time, the academy trainers had already jumped out of the mode of blindly imitating the division commander and the content of the book, and the traveling trainers had also gained enough experience, and the combat methods were no longer full of flaws. As a result, it is almost impossible to see a distinct character of a particular school in the trainers who have grown up, and only the young trainers are divided into two factions.
