The gymnasium was silent as Kai smirked at his teammates, who were also looking at him with wide eyes.
"Told you I'm better now," he said to Jet, who felt like he was hit with lightning.
"This kid," he muttered.

It was clear something changed within him.
Max bit his lips. "Has he always been good?" he muttered.
Qiang found himself frustrated early on.
"You alright?" Kris asked, concern seen on his face.
He clicked his tongue in annoyance. "Didn't see that coming, but I can handle him."
