I still have my investigative chops. I knew something smelled about those two identities.

I guess we can rule out one of the options

The Master of...?
1) Disguise

Even if it was a pair of brothers (age 15 and 17) who didn't decloak properly, we don't need children running around here mixing with the grownups and acting like equals...or worse, betters.

Whatever doesn't kill them will let them live longer until they kill themselves cash in their chips.

He hit the plank with his head on the way down. It was purely accidental.

Just like Mario Lopez in that movie about that diver and his assistants

Kung fu. It means, “supreme skill from hard work.” A great poet has reached kung fu. The painter, the calligrapher, they can be said to have kung fu. Even the pizza guy, the one who sweeps steps or a masterful servant can have kung fu. Practice. Preparation. Endless repetition. Until your mind is weary, and your bones ache. Until you’re too tired to sweat, too wasted to breathe. That is the way, the only way one acquires evil genius.

Dunno who said it, might be a bit made up

Sort of.

Kung Fu = acquired/learned skill.

The Cantonese term for work = chou kung ("do skill").

A common praise was "Hou kung fu" which simply meant "good acquired skill", and as mentioned, could be used in praise of any display of skill, from painting, to cooking and of course, was a common praise at martial arts demonstrations (which led to foreigners familiar with the word 'hou' = 'good', to assume that 'kung fu' referred to/meant 'martial arts/skills').

Studied wushu/kung fu amongst all the other Asian martial arts.

Wushu is the term in Mandarin Chinese for Martial Arts (in Cantonese, pronounced "Moh-sut" with 'sut' rhyming with 'put'. Also sometimes referred to as 'Moh-kung' or martial skills).

The sparring/full contact aspect I trained for is called Sanshou (literally "free hand") or Sanda ("free fighting") in Mandarin.

Sanshou/Sanda were differentiated from the other discipline in Chinese Wushu called Taolu, which was the rehearsal of choreographed routines (whether solo, or with 2 or more participants).

The wiki actually isn't too bad for the basics

You ordered a Russian bride? I thought you were already married? They take PayPal now? This is great news!

You can use PayPal to buy tokens and then use those tokens to communicate with some fatso Russian guy probably named Dmitry who pretends to be some sexier younger version of say Anna Kournikova. Once they catfish the heck outta you, you may use PayPal again to re-up more tokens which are needed to communicate with your (ghost) future Russian bride.

Oh, I called and asked a friend about this intel
