That&#x27;s what makes this special kasi noon nagtitiis pa po ako na mag-high school po ako para magawa ko po lahat nung new skills,” he told reporters. </p><p>“Kasi nung time po na cluster 2 ako, mataas na po talaga yung level ko. Limited lang po kasi yung skills na pwede mong gawin pag cluster 2.”</p><p>Yulo is eager to win all his remaining four events in the competition as a fitting farewell to his Palaro journey. </p><p>So far, the gymnast has amassed a whopping 16 Palaro gold medals across the last four tournaments of DepEd aside from two bronzes – and he can reach a total of 20 gold medals should he ranked first in all the finals of the four apparatuses. </p><p>“Medyo malungkot po kasi ang dami ko na ring natutunan about sa mga Palaro. Marami rin po ako naging kaibigan. Marami po ako nakakulitan.
