From this Shrine, walk towards the giant empty arena to start the Boss Fight. The Green-Capped Martialist is not the easiest fight, but it is not very difficult on the scale overall. If you dodge his attacks with the fiery rings and conserve your Mana properly, this secret boss should not be much of a hindrance.
