SpoilerRoll to portalize: d10 (4) + skill bonus (3) = 7.
Since this is a fairly low-stakes battle and a fairly small area, we'll say that's CR 5, making this a pass. For the record, each time you use Arcane Portal in one battle I'll up the difficulty by one, at least until it gets preposterous; don't want you to be totally independent of that 3 movement, now~

Luck roll for Bart not to end up royally screwed: d10 (8) + Luck bonus (5) = 13.
I'll call piggybacking the initial teleport CR + 3. With CR 8, Bart still has a healthy margin of error, and follows successfully. I think he'll also be taking... let's say a 50% movement penalty, though.

Bart and Kairui teleport safely. Kairui cannot move or teleport next turn.
----------
Kairui's attack roll: d10 (6) + Precision (4) + skill bonus (1) = 11

Dreg #5's resolve is greater than 11.
Hit, dealing 5 damage! Dreg #5's resolve is now 10. Dreg #5's movement is now 1.

Kairui VOIPs over to the other side of the field, accidentally taking Bart along for the ride. Kairui all but collapses from the effort, and Bart is quite shaky as well. Nonetheless, Kairui is able to easily fire off a powerful blast of void magic at one of the dregs, causing a chunk of it to turn back to fall off and turn to inanimate mud.
