“You’re… The champion of Sunnydale’s Youth Taekwondo team, right? I watched your national match last year!” said Fabian, respect reflected in his eyes.
“That’s me, and you got second place in this year’s Salford Youth Taekwondo match, didn’t you? I heard it was a close spar and that you could easily have ended up being the champion as well!” replied Warren, still a little surprised to see him there.
To think that both of them had been invited by the school to perform.
It didn’t take long for the other contestants and the audience to begin looking in their direction after realizing that the two martial arts experts were having a conversation.
“Yeah… I recall that you got to a pretty high rank in the nationals too. Truth be told, I’ve always wanted to spar with you. Looks like this will be a great opportunity to do just that!” said Fabian as he stared at Warren, a hint of competitiveness in his voice.
Hearing that, Maia smiled at Warren, clearly proud of him. After all, not only was he an absolute prince charming, he also had a great reputation worldwide for his great Taekwondo skills.
Being recognized by even people from overseas only served to make Maia admire Warren even more.
“It truly is!” replied Warren, a soft smile on his face.
Upon hearing their request to spar, the organization team immediately approved of the suggestion. After all, two superior martial artists sparring against each other would definitely be the highlight of the event.
The champion of Sunnydale versus the first runner up in Salford. This was surely going to be quite the show!
Even quite a few of the contestants were getting pumped for the spar, feeling much more fired up now to give it their all in their final matches.
While Gerald continued focusing on the competition, he felt Marven nudging him by the elbow.
“Brother Gerald, look at who’s sitting over there!”
Turning to look at the direction Marven was pointing at, Gerald was surprised to see that both Jasmine and Mindy were also watching the match.
“Color me surprised! I didn’t think they’d be here too…”
