SPY REPORT Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day, I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again! Practice pays for TONG PAK FU, who pummelled LEVANDAR, to pocket 14 points. LEVANDAR certainly had a baffled expression on his face, after losing to TONG PAK FU and losing 12 points in the process! Like a flirtacious debutante, TROCAR's Duelmaster ALBERT found himself the man of the hour, being "invited to dance" 2 times! You could cut the tension with a scimitar as CAO ZHENG of ASIAN INVASION met the Duelmaster. What can be a greater victory? CAO ZHENG has taken his place as the top, as TROCAR's new Duelmaster. Word has it one team in TROCAR is using psychics to predict wins. They lead a charmed life! A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the little birds cry out?' Any ideas? Ah, the duel! The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd! Ask not for whom the sword slashes; it slashes for thee. Do not think spyreporting in TROCAR is the highlight of my life. As the seasons change, and the creatures of the wild change also, so do I feel a yearning to leave this place. TROCAR, I leave you now. The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at The Dripping Blade.

My teammates say that's because I'm dumb. Could be. But if I were dumb, I wouldn't know it, would I? Cult Members. Bah. No meat on them. -- Levandar Tong Pak Fu -- I was going to say, "Oh, darn, the Kung-Fu Master," but you're someone else. So how about, "Oh, darn, Tong Pak Fu"? Ouch. -- Aline Taras Trocaran Deserter. He should die. -- Harazim Koreh LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS CAO ZHENG viciously subdued ALBERT in a 1 minute master's Challenge Title fight.
