A World of Warcraft quest in The Wandering Isle. Facts and objectives from the current retail game data.
The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
Kind of amusing how this is supposed to be a training exercise, and the fight stops when you get them to low health, yet they will beat you to death if you let them.
This works with either Huojin Trainees or Tushui Trainees.
You'll find them not only inside the nearby Temple on the training grounds (on all floors), but on the verandas, on the hill outside the Temple, and down the hill along the slopes at the foot of the temple.

Facing a living opponent is a very different thing from the stationary targets in the yard. Living opponents strike back. There is the very real fear of failure, and sometimes, even death. You must have the courage to overcome those fears. Challenge the other trainees within the temple or down the steps below, and defeat them.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
