Shao's eyes widened as he saw that. "Great way to warn me about this beforehand!" He backed into a tree, deflecting or dodging blaster shots, then ducked behind it. The training droid slashed as it rounded the tree, but found that Shao was gone. Using his suction pad-like larger arms, he had pulled himself up the tree, his natural camoflage confusing the Jedi droid.
While it was confused, he rounded the tree, still above the ground, and leapt towards one of the other droids, his seemingly sudden appearance allowing him to take it by surprise, as he deflected a single shot before he crashed into it, partially ripping off its head as it hit a rock. Instead of celebrating his victory, however, he was promptly struck in the shoulder by a blast from the other droid, stunning him for a moment. Overcoming his pain, he dodged agilely as another one came towards him, and then raised a hand, knocking a rock into the droid.
Before he could take it out with a larger rock he was levitating, the Dark Jedi droid forced it to the ground with its "telekinesis" mimicry, having reappeared. Turning his focus to it, Shao clashed lightsabers with it, leading it backwards, and then slashed behind him, dispatching the other droid, though he received a bruise as the training saber of the Dark Jedi droid hit his off-hand.
Returning to the offensive, Shao quickly gained the upper hand, but was thrown back by a "telekinetic" assault, barely managing to keep himself from slamming into a tree. As the droid approached, he formulated a plan. He clashed sabers with it again, but this time, his smaller hand gripping his own blade, he reached out with his suction pad larger hand, and grabbed the hilt of the droid's lightsaber, holding it in place. Despite the droid's greater strength, he was able to grapple with it long enough to ram his own blade into its weak neck joint, disempowering it. As it fell to the ground, he took an instant to breathe, leaning against a tree for the moment before continuing on, at a slower pace.
