The Kaito was in her training clothes to work this out. She bowed to the judges. She looked at her opponent and smiled as she bow to Murato. This will very good "Let's have fun together."
She set her self in the earth stance. Not her best but it is better to start slow. She had to show that she is not delicate.
It was an equally weak stance for Murato, as he settles into it. "Hai, let's have fun together," he says returning the smile.
As they move in and grapple, trying to get some sort of advantage, their more defensive stances seem to cancel one another out. And if he had believed she was delicate it did not show, as he was putting his full effort in. Neither of them got anywhere in that round.
Murato smirks at her when the round is called as a draw, bowing and preparing for the next. "I've been training a bit, you shouldn't be able to just wipe the floor with my back too easily."
Murato might have a bit more talent in the Fire stance, but he is just as clumsy as she is. He was trying to hook her leg and wound up going off balance.
"Excellent move," he says as he finds his feet, smiling widely at her. "You found a weakness in my stability."

The Kaito frowned. She was here to prove herself worthy. Eventhough she could have taken the advantage she decided to let it pass. "I won't go easy on you so don't go easy on me."
He chuckled at that. "I wouldn't dream of taking it easy on you," he said with a smirk.
"Just curious if you would take advantage of the opportunity," he replied as he stepped into her next attempt to grab him, letting her move to throw him. But he sinks his weight the wrong way, pulling her of balance into a counter-toss.
His eyes were tracking her movements looking for opportunities
He smiled back as they readied for the next match. This time around he was prepared with a plan of action for facing Oubaihime... he had noticed how she held him in her previous attempts and figured a way to slip her grip by stretching one of his shoulder joints to it's limit. And it just barely works as he slips out of her grip while she works up her momentum to push him out of the ring. Letting her slip right by and step out.
"Last round," he says with a smile. "For today at least. Ready?"
She was careless, letting her memories of her father showing her how to work the mats. This was the last round and she has been bested. Her training was not the best but she was determined to make her father proud.

Murato was easily outclassed in the next stance. He didn't see the throw coming at all and was tossed out with ease. But he at least made it a good show by rolling with it.
"Good match," he says when he eventually makes it to his feet. He bows respectfully to her and the judge.
