He almost bit my head off. Not physically of course, but I could feel large amounts of negative chi directed towards me.

Every move in tai chi is martial, has a martial application. It's just that it's extremely difficult to use in a fight if you haven't trained for a really long time, dedicated a lot of your life to it. Then again, once you have gotten to that level, you're pretty much unstoppable.
Chinese have conquered a lot of shit. Go with kung fu. Then again, Thailand's never been conquered (the only asian nation, I believe), so that's something to consider. Either way TKD is Korean and they're gonna get nuked soon so why bother.
