How do you spare the CEO of Sifu?
To spare the CEO of Sifu, also known as Jinfeng, players must parry and block her attacks to build up her Structure bar, and once the bar is filled, they should not initiate the takedown and instead wait for her to recompose before parrying her attacks again and sparing her when the option becomes available by pressing the left D-Pad. By doing so, players can achieve Wude and progress towards the true ending of the game, which requires sparing all five bosses to break the cycle of revenge and attain enlightenment.
