* WhatMeasureIsANonBadass: Ju Shifang gets this InUniverse as he's constantly ridiculed by other members of the True Martial Alliance for his timid attitude and lack of both self-confidence and physical prowess in the martial arts despite having invented a ''remote control bear'' that's capable of mopping the floor with an average martial artist.
