3 Presentation
"Ah…Naidan Rapa…The 'Mongolian Volcano', is it really him, professor?" Harumi asked not believing what he had heard.
"Yes himself, if I'm not mistaken he came to Tokyo a while ago but I haven't found him yet." The teacher would say with a smile. "Okay, I'll explain a little more about chi and you'll introduce yourselves, then you'll eat and at the end of the first day I'll explain more about school."
Professor Matsumoto opened the notebooks and took out a blank sheet.
"There are two types of chi, liquid and solid, solid chi is the chi used in combat, it allows you to form the chi mantle and cover weapons with this mantle for example, making them more resistant and strong." He said holding the sheet and pressing it onto the concrete brick. "Chi is solid is a little malleable chi, because it has this property it is used in combat and it is difficult to extend outside the body, whereas liquid chi is more malleable and difficult to keep inside the body, so it is used in processes forging or healing, for example."
"Chi is an amplifier, it can accelerate, intensify and even make something grow if it is used in a useful way." The teacher would say and the sheet of paper was covered in his blue chi. "As you can see, this is an ordinary sheet of paper, but when chi is added, even a sheet of paper becomes a deadly weapon." The teacher said and slapped his hand making the sheet go down, the sheet in a second split the concrete brick in two, some students looked impressed. " Seen? This is one of the reasons that fights between chi users and non-users are strictly prohibited."
"Okay, no more chi for today, now you're going to introduce yourself to the class, say your name, where you came from and what you like." The teacher would say undoing his chi mantle. "Whoever wants to start, please get up." The teacher would say and the white-haired girl gets up.
"Okay here I go, my name is Harumi Nakamura and I'm from Tokyo, I like to read and study." She would say with a smile and sparkles in her eyes.
"Damn the same story, don't you innovate?" Tanaka would say discouraged, Harumi glares at him.
"No fighting please, now it's you boy." the teacher says crossing his arms, the boy would stand up
" Well I? My name is Katsuo Tanaka, I came from Tokyo and I like to sleep." He would say and Harumi held back a laugh.
"Still the same loser, what a shame." She says that and the boy looked at her, Professor Matsumoto gave a sigh.
"Look, I don't know what your love affair is but I'm going to ask you to keep him out of school." He would say and Harumi would grimace, the boy would sit down and Daiyu would stand up.
"My name is Lin Daiyu, I came from China and I like to listen to podcasts." Lin would say with a smile.
"Finally someone interesting." The teacher would say, Tanaka and Harumi looked at him with frowns, Lin sat down and Saran stood up.
"Well, my name is Sarangerel Rapa, I come from Osaka and I like to fight." Saran would say and Harumi would scream.
" RAPA?! The same Rapa tribe of Mongolian warriors, the same as Naidan Rapa?!" She asked full of surprise.
" Well, yes." Saran was a little scared.
"Girl, please tell me you know Naidan!" Harumi said looking at Saran.
"Naidan, he is my father." Saran would say looking at Harumi who was paralyzed, she put her hand on her chest and squeezed her uniform, the expression on her face looked like she had seen a ghost.
"Ah...She is the daughter of a god of war...what an honor..." Harumi would say that wiping tears from her eyes, the teacher approached Saran.
"So you are Naidan's daughter? Tell that bighead I want to talk to him." The teacher would say with a sarcastic tone, a few minutes passed and the rest of the students introduced themselves, the bell rang indicating the break. "Okay, you can go, remembering that if you want you can schedule your fights, I don't recommend it but you can do whatever you want."
"Okay now it's break time, first-year students can leave their classrooms, to go to the cafeteria, just go down the stairs and follow the corridor to the right." Students left the room and went towards the cafeteria with the help of the voice on the speakers.
The cafeteria was packed, several different faces met in the same place, students from both the combat and forge and nursing courses, near the cafeteria it was possible to see several students in five rows gathered in a place where there were large panels showing several names , the scheduling panel, it showed the fights that were scheduled, the names, ranks, points and times. Saran walked towards the place.
"You're going to fight, you don't waste time right?" Lin would say beside Saran.
"I will, I really want to test this school!" Saran would say walking.
"If that's the case I'll go too." Lin would say walking beside her.
Both arrived in line with a sign written "wolf", they waited and it was Saran's turn.
"Hello, have you decided to fight?" A girl sitting at a counter was asking Saran in a charismatic way.
"Yes, I can't wait hehe." She would say in a playful tone.
"Okay, you just need to say when you're willing and how many points you want to bet." The girl would say typing on a computer.
"Well I'll want to fight as soon as possible, tomorrow if I can schedule it." Saran would say looking at a monitor showing the date. "Oh and one more thing." Saran would say and the girl would look at her.
" Yes darling?" The girl would say.
"I will want to fight someone of the bear rank." Saran would say and the girl looked surprised.
" Are you sure? Not recommended for novices." She said looking at Saran.
"It's okay, no need to worry." Saran would say with a smile.
"Okay...and how many points do you want to bet?" The girl asked typing on the board.
"10,000 points." Saran would say.
"10,000 points?!" The girl was worried. "But, you only have 10,000 points! If he loses the fight, he will have 0!".
"I know, but don't worry ma'am, I won't lose." Saran would say confidently, the girl typed on the computer and appeared on the monitor at the top of the cafeteria.

In a few seconds the refectory was taken by whispers, some students at one of the refectory tables are talking, one of them elbows the other a little.
"Oh Kato, look over there." He would say pointing to the monitor. "You don't need some points to get out of the bear rank?"
"My god, who's the idiot? Saran...1-B? Forgive me gentlemen, I will rise in rank." He would say getting up from his desk and running to the counter, his friends laughing.
"It's you who's offering, I say! Betting 10,000 points?" The boy would say next to Saran, he was tall and had shaved hair.
" Yes it's me. Do you want to fight me tomorrow?" She asked innocently, Lin elbowed her in the arm.
"Saran, have you gone crazy? You will bet all your points!" She said unrepentantly.
"Yes, but what about it?" Saran asked without understanding.
"Well that doesn't matter, lady, as you're going to bet 10,000 points, I have to bet too, your name is Saran, right?" He would say holding out his hand.
"Yes Saran Rapa, and you are?" She asked squeezing his hand.
"I'm Kato, Kato Susumo, it will be a pleasure to fight you tomorrow."
"Okay, so it's decided." The girl would say typing on the computer and appearing on the monitor.

"Very well now that everything is decided, I'll finish eating, see you tomorrow!" Kato would say returning to the table, Saran waved as Lin placed his hand on her forehead.
"I can't believe you did this." Lin said shaking his head.
"Don't worry, he was the one who lost." Saran would say looking at Lin
"Saran he's a sophomore, fighting someone more experienced is never cool, even less intelligent." Lin would say annoyed.
"Relax and trust me, tomorrow you'll see, or hear, you're weird…" Saran would say and laugh the two of them went to the cafeteria to eat after Lin registered his name on the monitor.
The day passed and class ended. Saran was walking to her house, a few minutes passed and she arrived home, opened the door and took off her shoes. She saw her father sitting on the couch while reading a book.
"You arrived, and then tell me, how was it?" he asked excitedly.
" It was amazing! I made a friend from China, talked to a sophomore and even managed to score a fight! I'll fight tomorrow at 5pm in the school arena." She would say more excited than her father.
"Oh my gosh, it was a pretty cool day then." He said happy seeing the excitement of his daughter, his mask hid his expression but the tone in his voice showed the excitement.
"One of the teachers said he knew you, his name was Kenji Matsumoto." Saran would say and her father would look at her.
" Kenji? So he really became a teacher, I'll talk to him tomorrow." He said standing up showing the huge size difference between the two.
"Since you're going to fight tomorrow, I have to give you a present. This arrived today from Mongolia, your uncle Otgon sent it." The father said walking and picking up a box near the table in the living room. "Open up and tell me what you think."
He says placing the box on the table and looking at Saran. She opens the box and takes out a piece of clothing, a pair of baggy pants made of beige and red fabrics, a traditional pants of the Mongolian bokh uniform.
"I can't believe it, uncle sent this to me?!" Saran screams extremely excited, she takes off her pants quickly but carefully, then she takes off a leather vest and black buckles, on the back there was a huge white symbol resembling the face carved on her father's mask.
" You liked it?" The father asked pretending not to know the answer.
" I loved it!" She says hugging her father tightly.
"Hey hey calm down, it's gonna crush me hehe." He says in a playful tone. "These pants end at the ankle to keep your feet free."
"I really loved it, tell your uncle he's the best!" Saran says excitedly, she hugs her father again.
"Are you going to try it?" The father asks looking at her.
"I'll try it tomorrow, are you and mom going to be able to go to the fight?" she asked.
"Your mom will be late today but tomorrow she's free, and I don't have any commitments so yes." He says looking at his daughter.
"Okay okay, I think you better rest, tomorrow will be a very interesting day."
