The Lobby hall has only one NPC, So Gong, Mu Gong's apprentice. Talk to him to begin the challenge. If you choose party mode, the party leader only needs to talk to So Gong before proceeding. If you choose solo mode and is your first time doing so, you need to defeat So Gong first before going on.

Mechanics
Each round is held in a floor which has 2 levels. The boss is located at the bottom level.The far right of the bottom level is a transporter that transports you to the upper level, containing the portal to the next floor which will not open until the boss is defeated. Training points will only be given after you enter the portal to the next floor, not immediately after you kill the boss. This means you can still get 0 points for Round 27 if you managed to kill C. Rog but got owned by the Jr. Balrogs he summons before you reach the portal.

The time limit is for all 5 bosses, meaning you have 5 minutes to defeat the first 5 rounds of bosses, and so on.
After much experimenting lately, I find that Partying gives (n-1) points for each boss. For example, Mano gives 2 points for soloing right? In Party mode, each party member gets 1 point. Faust gives 2 points instead of 3 in Party mode and so on. I have been informed that the level range between party members must not be higher than 30.
The player's health bar and the boss's health bar appears at the top of the screen.
After every fifth round, there is a resting floor that has no time limit for you to recharge HP/ MP. You can also talk to So Gong at the resting floors to save your progress so that you can teleport directly to that resting floor the next time you come in. You can only save your progress in the resting floors, not in rounds of your liking. You do not lose exp if you die in the Dojo.
You can't use any items you bring during the challenge. Instead, bosses will summon minions, which, when defeated, drop potions that work like MCPQ pots, meaning they are consumed the moment you pick them up. All pots affect every single party members.

Powerups' effects increase progressively by stage. For example, the first stage(1-5) bosses drop powerups with least effects and has the shortest duration, and the effects/duration increase as more powerful powerups are dropped by higher stage bosses.

By the way, medals are awarded for killing bosses. So Gong awards medals for killing 100 bosses of the same type in Solo mode, however, they last 1 day only. Also, you must start from getting medals of the weaker bosses before challenging better ones. For example, you must first get the Mano medal, then Stumpy, and so on until Mu Gong's.
