Young Master Gart's Speech

"I would like to introduce to you a very special person!

"This person beside me is known among people here in Kasgar as Kraszad.

"But among us from the Ragha Martial Arts Academy, we call him by a nickname given to him by the academy.

"We call him Blink!

"If you're wondering why he has a nickname, that's because he is an elite disciple from the second class.

"Would you like to earn a nickname when you get to the Ragha Martial Arts Academy like your Senior Brother Blink?

"Yes?

"That's good to hear!

"If you want to gain an academy-given nickname, then you better work hard from now on!

"By the way, your Senior Brother Blink earned his nickname as an apprentice in just his first week at the academy.

"The next fastest person to gain a nickname had to hone his martial arts skills for five years before he could earn it.

"Amazing, right?

"I'll tell you what's even more amazing, your Senior Brother Blink had never—I repeat—he had NEVER lost a single bout—not one!

"You think you can do that?

"That's the spirit!

"Set high goals for yourself, indeed, but don't forget to work hard for them.

"Actually, Brother Blink had set almost every record worth talking about at the Ragha Martial Arts Academy.

"Aside from being the undisputed number one fighter in his class, he is also the number one heartthrob at the academy!

"This is indisputable!

"Every girl at the academy had a big crush on him!

"Aah, you like that, don't you?

"You with the thick lips and bushy eyebrows!

"Yes, you!

"Do you like girls?

"You don't?

"You mean you like boys?

"Get out of here!

"I won't tolerate some twisted form of brotherly love for as long as I'm here!

"Oh, so you like girls!

"Why didn't you just say so the first time I asked?

"You, Puffy Cheeks!

"Damn, your cheeks are so puffy, I almost can't see your eyes!

"You also like girls?

"You wanna be seen around with a hot girlfriend?

"Yes?

"You, too?

"Good, good!

"No, not you, Cross-eyed, you won't possibly ever have the chance!

"That's the spirit, Long Face!

"Do you want to know who the rumored girlfriend of Brother Blink is?

"Brother Blink, is it still just a rumor?

"Oh, cmon, you're no fun!

"So it's not just a rumor?

"So it's true?

"You mean she is really your girlfriend?

"All right!

"Put a fist bump in there, Brother!

"As I was saying, Brother Blink has a really hot girlfriend every guy at the academy could only gulp their saliva in envy.

"Why?

"Because the girl in question, Miss Berge of Milal Unteg, is the most beautiful girl at the academy!

"Nay, Miss Berge is the most beautiful girl in all of Ragha!

"I'll tell you how beautiful Miss Berge is.

"Miss Berge is so beautiful kingdoms will topple at the sight of her beauty!

"That's right!

"If you're great at martial arts, you could have the best of everything, pretty girlfriends included!

"And so, without any further ado…

"Oh, by the way, this very center we are training on was established in honor of Brother Blink.

"Kasgar was given its own martial arts training center as Master Tszarek's reward to Brother Blink for topping his class during their class promotion assessment.

"The reward was requested by Brother Blink and was granted by Master Tszarek!

"Remember this if and when you will be fortunate to don the blue apprentice robe of the Ragha Martial Arts Academy.

"At the completion of your apprenticeship, you will have an assessment before you are promoted to junior disciple and wear the brown robe that Brother Blink is wearing right now.

"The class promotion assessment is actually a sparring competition to determine your ranking before becoming junior disciples.

"Whoever ranks number one can make one request and Master Tszarek shall grant it.

"As long as it is within his capacity to grant it!

"No, Cross-eyed, Master Tszarek won't be able to fix your looks!

"I doubt even a magician can!

"All right! All right!

"You all talk too much, it's a waste of precious time!

"And so, without any further ado, I present to you the undefeated, undisputed top disciple and reigning heartthrob of the Ragha Martial Arts Academy and conqueror of the heart of the number one kingdom-toppling beauty of Ragha…

"Your Senior Brother Blink!

Hey, why do I see some of you not clapping your hands?

"That's better!

"Brother Blink has agreed to be your trainer for the next several days!

"So why don't we all say a big heartfelt 'Thank you' to Brother Blink!

"Good, very good!

"Brother Blink, they're all yours!"

Young Master Gart will play a very important part in the later part of this novel. Guess, what that would be?
