Young Man took another look at Baldy across from him.
He had thought Baldy was the least remarkable person in the group. Little had he known that the most unassuming one would turn out to be the real powerhouse.
In a sense, Baldy's remark about a "magnet" had exposed the secret of his Psychic Powers. His ability to move objects from a distance came down to changing the Magnetic Field between himself and his target. Put simply, it worked on the same principle as a magnet: like poles repelled, and opposite poles attracted.
Even though someone could see through his Psychic Powers, Young Man had no reason to be shocked. What mattered was that Baldy's performance just now suggested he had been completely unaffected by those Psychic Powers.
From a physics standpoint, Magnetic Field strength varied inversely with the square of the distance. The closer Baldy came to him, the stronger the repulsive force acting on him would become.
Normally, Young Man could adjust the Magnetic Field around him to keep the forces on his body balanced. He needed no precise calculations. It was an inborn gift, a response as natural as instinct.
But when Baldy suddenly appeared right in front of him, even his instincts failed to react in time. A terrifying repulsive force hurled Young Man backward.

After studying Luke carefully, Young Man said, enunciating every word, "You're strong."
