I think that it would be reasonable for a character with Trained By a Master to take Weapon Master at a 10 point discount when applied to melee weapon masters because there is significant overlap between the two (the only advantage of significance that Weapon Master possesses over Trained By a Master when it comes to melee weapons is the increased damage for melee weapons). Alternatively, you could have a second level of Trained By a Master that costs 60 points and applies the Weapon Master traits to all Melee Weapon Skills known by the styles of the character (not thrown or ranged weapons known to the styles).
