» Item Description: The Péi Xùn is a training tool and weapon. While it appears to simply be a red bouncy ball, perhaps that teenagers or tweens would use to play outdoor games, it is actually so much more. This is because of the fact that the ball is used for serious training. Whenever the ball is impacted with some kind of blow, typically by a person's legs, it is sent flying as hard as the user hits it. The supernatural factors of those ball are twofold. Firstly, the ball is extremely resistant to damage. It would have to be hit with a 0 tier's full force several times before shattering. In addition, this resilience causes the ball to reconstruct itself even if it is has been utterly destroyed, as long as some part of it remains. It does this by utilizing reishi in the air.

This ball marks the first person who touches it after several hours of inactivity as its 'owner'. When the ball has no registered owner, it shifts to a gray color. In addition, the harder that one hits the ball, the more red its color becomes. When the ball is struck, it uses the force of the attack to surge outwards, shooting a distance proportionate to the force of the attack that impacted it. The ball then returns back to its original position. This is how it acts, unless the user steps forwards and breaks the ball's natural rhythm. With its rhythm broken, the ball will surge back towards the user faster than normal, increasing the intensity at which it surges back and forth from blows.

Important to note, the ball will always home in on the last limb that impacted it. As long as that same limb hits it again, the ball has no negative consequences. If a user hits it really hard and it impacts against some other part of their body, however, it will hurt just as hard as the blow that was last used against the ball, before it bounces off and shoots back towards the person marked as its owner.

This ball can be used both for training and a weapon. A person's training can become intense with this ball, which is designed to be like an extremely portable punching bag. The ball can fit in a person's pocket; by inserting or removing spiritual pressure, it can be restored to its original size or shrunk again, giving it two modes that the user can attempt to train with.

In combat, the ball is best used by relentlessly shooting it at the opponent; as even if it misses, it will race back to the wielder, letting them perfectly line up another attack. Additionally, by approaching the ball faster, the intensity of the final blow will be increased even more.

The ball is a somewhat-sentient being; it has no true mind, but it has the habits that it exudes, such as knowing what hit it last or who its 'owner' is. It could be considered similar to a slime's level of intelligence in this way; but it has no will to move by itself, or even any way to.
